A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"What was that again?" Jacob's voice became hoarse, bordering on a roar.

With tears almost breaking out of her eyes, Emily looked into his eyes and whispered, "... I'm sorry."

"Emily Bai!" he shouted. Jacob's face burned with anger, at the thought of his efforts to pretend as if he had no idea what was going on. Emily's unforthcoming attitude was like a tight slap on his face!

Emily's recent unusual behavior did not go unnoticed by him, and it worried him greatly when she suddenly wanted to break up with him, so he sent people to check up on her.

Step by step, with proper investigation, he finally caught a glimpse of the ugly truth even he wished he did not uncover.

Jacob found out that Emily and Jack were still in contact. Moreover, one of Jacob's hackers even found an intimate photo of the two of them in Jack's phone and sent it to Jacob.

Jacob forced himself to keep calm and even employed numerous experts, seeking to prove that the picture was photoshopped, but the truth broke his heart.

"Oh, so you want to break up with me to be with Jack?" he asked Emily. Jacob slowly took his phone out of his pocket, while resisting the impulse to break it, and then showed Emily the photo on the screen.

Emily's jaw dropped to the floor so quick, she couldn't utter another word. Her lips quivered like a dry leaf, fearing the worst.

Even though she had expected the truth to come out one day, when her worst nightmare became reality, she couldn't handle the weight of the situation.

Emily's worst nightmare was brought to light and presented right in front of the man she loved the most.

"... Where did you get this photo?" she asked.

"Surprised?" he taunted. Not wasting another second, Jacob dropped his phone to the ground and stomped on it. "You're still in love with him, right? Or else, why would you sleep with him while I was away on business?" he asked, desperation appearing in his eyes.
