A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Jacob heard the news right after Emily was kidnapped. 'I should have insisted on having guards around her.' Jacob was so regretful that he kept blaming himself for what happened.

Emily was not happy about having Jacob's guards around her because it felt as if Jacob was spying on her throughout the day. As a result, she dismissed all the guards Jacob had hired for her.

Jacob almost had a fight with Emily after he found out what she did, but in the end he gave in to Emily and arranged things according to her wishes. Besides, everything between them had been going very smoothly, and the last thing Jacob wanted was to ruin this fragile relationship.

However, he knew he could not be too careful, so he hired someone to watch over Leona in case she tried to do something stupid.

Bad things always had a way of happening really fast.

"The man who kidnapped Miss Cloris is very strong, and he didn't even try to hide himself from the surveillance cameras. So I guess he is either a criminal or a psychopath, and I don't think he has anything or anyone to care about. Sir, this is going to be a rather tricky situation for us," Sam reported with a heavy voice. He paused for a moment and continued, "Or maybe… he left the trace on purpose…maybe he wanted us to discover his tracks…what I am saying is that at least we have a clue, so it won't be too difficult to find out where he took Miss Cloris…"

Jacob played the surveillance video and locked his eyes on the screen. When he saw that the man had slapped Emily on the face, Jacob's eyes burned like wildfire. He wanted this man dead.

"Find him. Now!" Jacob screamed, his body shaking with anger.

"Yes, sir," Sam left immediately.

Jacob and his men started searching the entirety of Jingshi City. He didn't even care if Mr. Gu had found out what he was doing. The only thing that mattered to him was finding Emily and making sure that she was safe.

Even Jack was on his team after he heard the news. Jack put aside all this work and joined forces with Jacob. Emily was always the priority. Everything else could wait.
