A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 282 Why Deceive Ourselves

The group of journalists definitely didn't see this coming. They were all shocked by the series of unexpected turns in from of them.

'What's going on? Oh, No! The headline for tomorrow's was ready:

THE CEO OF GU CONSORTIUM WAS REJECTED AFTER HE PROPOSED. Oh man, it was brilliant! And now? You told me your refusal was just kidding?' the journalists thought disappointedly.

But still, like a group of hungry hyenas surrounding their prey, they kept taking photos of Jacob and Emily who were trying to make it through that bunch of animals.

Meanwhile, Jacob's whole proposal was uploaded online. The entire speech was accompanied by real-time comments from viewers that almost covered the whole screen.

"Holy shit! She refused? Fucking unbelievable! Emily is crazy! What the fuck? What? Emily, you dumbass, fuck you! Jacob, I would never ever refuse you!"

"Poor Jacob, did you see his face when Emily said no? But fortunately, the two love birds will get married. Jacob worked hard to clean up all the shit they had gone through. He slapped those rumor-makers on the face, Ahahah... Way to go, Jacob! You are a real man!" another one flew across the screen.

"He shouldn't have proposed to that crazy woman! Fuck off this Emily! This man belongs to me!" again another one flew by.

"..."

After Jacob cleared everything up and proposed to Emily at the press conference, it was self-evident that the rumors were false. Even some haters that insulted Emily before showed their respect and apologized for what they have said before.

Among the public watching this scene on the screen, there was also Jennifer.

Her sight was fixed on their faces. Jealousy was firing in her eyes. Her hands were clenched so tight that her fingernails cut through the flesh of her palms.

She was the one that started that rumors. But now? All her efforts were useless.

Jennifer had accounted for the possibility that Jacob would hold this press conference to clear up the situation. But she was hoping that keeping reminding Jacob that Emily cheated on him would eventually change his mind.

Jacob was not the kind of man who would forgive a thing like that. Emily's betrayal came handy to Jennifer and she tried to use this to cast as much shit as she could on her rival. She carried out her malicious plan step by step. Emily became famous among the haters as the 'stupid bitch' and Jacob became the pathetic man that everyone felt sorry for.

No real men would forgive something like that, especially what it was publicly known.

Jacob not only forgave Emily for having an affair with another man but also lied for her and
