A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Jacob passed through the crowd in a rush as he walked towards Emily. "Don't be afraid. I'm here," he uttered.

Emily, who was in deep pain and anxiety, felt like she was going to pass out. Only when she heard Jacob's voice was she able to calm down. The bombardment of questions from the journalists sucked the air out of her lungs.

Jacob placed his hand reassuringly on Emily's shoulders. Then, he took off his coat and covered her with it.

After doing so, he helped her pass through the massive crowd of reporters.

But the reporters had no intention of letting them go that easily. They forced their way toward the couple and swarmed them.

When Jacob noticed this, he couldn't suppress his rage any longer and looked at every reporter with a murderous gaze. After that, no one dared to come closer or even ask questions. Not a single soul dared to go up against Jacob. Everyone was seemingly scared of losing their lives.

When they finally got through the crowd, Sam's car was waiting right in front of them. After meeting with the shareholders, Sam saw the news about Emily on the internet, so he rushed to her with the thought that something bad might have happened.

"Mr. Gu, over here! Get in the car!" Sam shouted as he got out of the car and opened the door for them.

When he realized that it was Sam who called out to him, Jacob quickly held Emily's hand and rushed over to the car.

Once they were both inside, Sam quickly drove away.

It was obvious to Jacob that the arrival of the media was premeditated. It was almost impossible for the reporters to arrive at Emily's room at the same time that Darren's men finished causing trouble. Darren certainly must have tipped the media companies to make them send all of these people.

Meanwhile, Harlan arrived at Darren's office.

"Mr. Xu, everything went smoothly," he politely reported.

"That's good. They painted me in such a bad light. How can I let them go so easily? If I can't live my life the way I want, no one else can!"

Darren replied, playing with the ring in his hand. With a vicious grin on his face, he uttered those words without a single shred of empathy. Anyone who heard him would tremble in fear.
