A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

A short while after Emily had left the hospital, Sam rushed into Jacob's ward with a man.

"Sir, here is the person you wanted to meet."

"Come in." Jacob kept his usual calm and composed disposition. He set aside all the sweet feeling Emily had brought him. All of a sudden, the air around grew cold again.

The man Sam brought in looked a little like Jacob. He walked into the ward slowly, but he didn't speak a word.

Jacob rested his back on the large sofa and raised his eyelids slightly. "What should I call you? Len or Jason?" asked Jacob.

"Jason." Jason looked straight at Jacob, and his face contorted with disgust. "Jacob, why do you fight for our enemy?" he sneered.

"Bang!" Jacob slammed his fist on the table, and his cold fury burnt with dangerous intensity.

"Have you not been educated? How dare you utter my name?" Jacob exclaimed.

Although Jacob was just sitting there, his sharp, black eyes pierced a hole right through Jason's heart. He harbored a sense of arrogance in his eyes, as he looked down upon Jason, like he was nothing more than the dirt under his feet.

Jason gritted his teeth, refusing to admit that he was taken aback by Jacob's remark. "You are not my brother. You sold your loyalty to our enemy, for honor, glory and riches. I am ashamed of you," he sneered.

"Say that again."

"I said you are not my brother... Ahh!"

Before Jason could finish his words, Jacob stood up and kicked him in the stomach, sending him falling to his knees. He felt the weight of anger pressing him into the dirt in which he knelt.

"Jacob!" Jason cried out in pain, struggling to find his footing.

Jacob pressed on his shoulder with his foot and pinned him to the ground. "Do you know why you were caught by Mr. Gu?" he asked.
