A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Thanks to Rita, this was the first time Jacob was able to get some sleep in a very long time.

Muddled, he whipped his head around to see where he was. When he finally regained his senses he asked, "David, I'll ask you one more time. Where on earth did you hide Emily?"

The tone of Jacob's voice terrified David. It reminded him of the brutality Jacob had subjected him to. David bit his lip and answered, "I told you. I haven't seen her. She didn't come to us. And look what you've done to me. Do you know how bad it hurts?"

As if he hadn't registered a single thing David had said, Jacob continued, "David, why are you lying to me?"

"No, I'm not. Believe it or not," David answered.

When Rita walked in, guilt appeared in her face, as the first thing that came to her sight was the bandage on Jacob's head. While touching the side of her nose with a finger, she yelled, "What are you two arguing about? This is a hospital. Would you please be quiet and give it a rest?"

When Jacob heard Rita's voice, he turned around to look at her. Jacob's sharp eyes caught Rita's face, rigid with tension, as she looked around the roam, trying to avoid making eye contact with him. Jacob turned grim-faced and asked, "You are her best friend. You know where he is, don't you?"

Suddenly, Jacob stood up and walked towards Rita, with a menacing look in his eyes.

Without hesitation, David rushed over and stood in between Jacob and Rita. "Jacob, what do you think you're doing? Have you gone mad?" he screamed at Jacob.

"If none of you will tell me where she is, I will search every corner of this city even if I have turn every place upside down," Jacob answered.

Rita, standing behind David, said to herself, 'Go ahead! Dig into the ground if you must. No matter how deep you dig, you will never find Emily.'

Meanwhile, Sam and the others came as soon as they found out that Jacob was awake. "Mr. Jacob, we've searched the entire city, but there's no sign of Miss Emily anywhere. I'm afraid she may have left the city, before we got here," Sam reported.

Disheartened, Jacob lowered his head and frowned. He didn't care whether Sam had guessed it right or not, but the thought of Emily running away from him just before he could get to her, broke his heart to pieces.

So close! He was so close to getting Emily back!

The moment Jacob called David, Emily already knew that Jacob had found her.
