Jacob's lips frowned and he insisted, "I don't know you. Get out. You can't be here!"

"Help me! Please! I got abducted and sold to this man. He is always mean to me and he beats me. I know for a fact that I will die if I spend another day with him. Take me, please! I promise I'll do anything you ask me to."

Jacob and Emily's love story was widespread throughout the whole village. No wonder this girl knew about them as well, which was why she came to to seek help from this considerate man.

However, her initial impression of Jacob did not meet her expectations at all. His kind and considerate demeanour was only directed towards Emily and no one else. He yelled at the girl, "Fuck off!"

Suddenly, without any warning she pounced on him and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. "Please! Please, help me! I don't want to die..." she begged.

Just when Jacob was about to send her out, someone pushed the door in.

Lo and behold, Emily stood at the door, looking at them blankly.

Jacob's entire body froze. Although, he knew he hadn't done anything wrong, he had the expression of a man who had been caught committing adultery. "Emily! This is not what it looks like! Let me explain!"

Just as expected, Emily turned around and ran, disregarding him and his explanation completely.

Without wasting another second, Jacob pushed the girl away and ran after Emily. "Emily! Emily! Listen to me!"

Jacob ran after Emily like his life depended on it. Huffing frantically, he caught up to her and said, "Wait, Emily!"

Jacob clutched her arm tightly at once. The anxiety emerging in his heart drove him to babble nervously. "Trust me, Emily. I don't know who that woman was. She came into my room. I mistook her for you in the dark..."

Emily gazed into his eyes, silently. She took a deep breath and answered, "I know you would never cheat on me. But I don't want to talk to you right now. Just, just leave me alone."

"Emily..." Jacob could tell that all kinds of thoughts were whirling around in her head, so rather than intruding on them he kept silent.

Emily slowly pushed him away. In a voice drained of feeling, she said, "We should take a break."
