A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 278 Maybe It Was Just An Illusion

Things between Emily and Jacob were getting heated when suddenly, they were interrupted. Someone was knocking at the door!

"Oh, my! Someone is here!" Emily whispered. She tried to hide in Jacob's arms and conceal her red face.

Jacob pulled up his pants and straightened himself. "Yes?"

"It's me, Jennifer." Jennifer's voice came behind the door, "I am new here. So I was wondering if we can have dinner together and maybe you can tell me something about this city. Well, may I come in?"

"No, you may not." Jacob shut her down immediately.

"I'll wait for you outside then," Jennifer replied. She decided not to give up this time so easily!

Jacob ignored what she said and helped Emily fix herself. "Is there anything you would like to eat?"

"For starters, I am hungry," Emily replied, her face still flushed on what happened earlier.

"Then let's go out to eat something," Jacob wrapped an arm around her shoulders.

"With Jennifer?" Emily asked with a hint of displeasure.

"Your call." Jacob smiled as he shrugged.

Emily thought for a while then spoke up, "Very well. We can take her with us."

She knew she couldn't avoid Jennifer forever. If Jennifer was into Jacob, she had no choice but to deal with her, and then Jennifer should know her place!

"You don't like her, do you?" Jacob gave an amused chuckle.

"Who said that that I didn't like her? I like her." Emily rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"It's obvious you don't." Jacob laughed and kissed her on the cheek. He tried to make out with her again but Emily covered his mouth. "Now, it's not the right time."
