A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"I'm with my assistant, of course! You know I need her for work, right?" Emily exclaimed while she rolled her eyes. 'This man worries too much!' she thought.

Despite feeling peeved, Emily knew that Jacob only acted like this because he cared for her.

After all, with Jacob's status as one of the most powerful businessmen around, many of his competitors would love to get the chance to whack him on the head. However, it was hard to get close to him since he had so many guards around him at all times. So instead of him, these people might go after his family.

"Okay then. Have a good day at work," Jacob replied in a soft voice. Knowing that Emily was in safe hands with her assistant alleviated some of Jacob's worries. There was no point in bickering with her anymore so he simply said goodbye.

However, he was still a little restless. He had a feeling in his gut that something troubling was about to happen.

Emily placed her phone on her lap, and then helplessly shook her head. She couldn't do anything about Jacob's behavior, leaving her to silently endure his random outbursts every single time.

Despite that, she didn't mind at all. She knew it was just the way that Jacob expressed his love for her, so she chose to let it pass.

A few minutes later, Emily and her assistant arrived at the charity foundation for depression. From the moment they entered the building, they hardly took a break. It was so busy at the foundation that it was impossible to even get a cup of tea.

Nevertheless, the work they did was to serve and help the community. No matter how tiring it was for Emily, she ignored the aches in her body since it meant helping other people.

After half a day's work, Emily felt a little drained. Fortunately, the people who had planned the event had already prepared a place to rest for the volunteers. Emily headed there and eagerly sat in a chair. It was quite a pleasant room since the hustle and bustle of people couldn't be heard.

'Is that her? Did she come here to help with the event?' Jonas thought to himself while he stared at Emily from afar. He approached bit by bit and tried to make sure his guess was right. Finally, when he was close enough to recognize her, he walked forward to say hello.
