A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 258 Why Didn't You Deny It

"Please calm down, Jacob," Emily was still groaning in pain due to her hurting jaw.

"This is bullshit!" Jacob released her and his fingers gently stroked the mark he had left. "Emily, we don't have to do this. Can you tell me what the problem is? Maybe I could fix it."

Emily sighed, "I am tired, Jacob. Don't you get it?" She closed her eyes, and her eyebrows knitted together.

After all, she didn't have the courage to tell him the truth. Saying she was tired was just an excuse--an excuse that all couples used typically to conceal what was bothering them.

"Are you sure you are tired?" Jacob felt something was off but he chose to ignore it. "Then you better get some rest."

He grabbed Emily's arm, pulling her out. He didn't let go despite the other's protest. He carried her bridal style tightly, going from her room directly to the car.

"Jacob, what are you doing? This is really ridiculous!" Emily was banged the car as she kept screaming, "W-Where are you taking me?" Her fist kept banging since the car door was locked.

"I'm taking you home, Emily," Jacob replied simply inside the car as he put on his seat belt.

Home. Emily fell silent. She opened her mouth to speak but she couldn't muster the words. She decided to look out of her window as they drove.

When the car arrived at the Tyrone Mansion, Emily looked at the luxurious building. 'It feels like it has been years' She thought.

Jacob didn't say anything and just picked up Emily bridal style again. They went inside the house, to their bedroom and he settled her gently on the bed.

"Sleep well, love. Sweet dreams." He pulled the sheets towards her with a gentle look on his eyes, tucking her in like a child.

Emily closed her eyes, sighing. She failed again to tell him the truth. She thought to herself, 'It might be the last time so I...'

Jacob climbed on his side of the bed, reaching out for a book. His other arm held Emily. He finally felt at ease, knowing that Emily was right next to him.

Emily tried to figure things out but her eyelids were getting heavier. In Jacob's arms, she felt so safe and warm that she might fall asleep soon.
