A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"You had him investigated? What's the use? I'm finally spending my time with actual people and not just a bunch of computer files!" Emily snapped. She had learned that Jacob had paid people to follow Jonas and look into his background.

'Why is he so obsessed with Jonas just because the two of us talked for a bit? How unreasonable!' she thought.

She and Jonas had known each other for a while, and they had met up several times. She thought that the man was quite pleasant, but that was it. He wasn't at all like what Jacob was making him out to be.

This time, Emily was convinced that Jacob had gone too far.

Neither of them was willing to concede, so the fight continued.

Jacob and Emily stayed angry at each other until the following day.

Early that morning, as soon as Jonas spotted Emily from a distance, he knew at once that she was unhappy.

He believed he understood what was going on, but he did not say a word.

For Emily, nothing was more important than getting a good night's rest.

With a faint smile on his face, Jonas walked up to her.

"What's wrong? You don't look that good. Didn't you sleep well last night?" he asked with concern evident on his face.

Without warning, he proceeded to hypnotize Emily. Now, she was going to get some well-deserved rest.

Before Emily could respond to the question, her eyelids grew heavy. Her knees and elbows immediately buckled, and she lost consciousness.

Jonas smiled as he looked at Emily, who was now fast asleep. His eyes were full of silent affection.
