A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

On the other side, after Bonnie left the cafe, Emily made her way home alone.

She had known Bonnie for a while now, and thought that she was kind and sweet. She had always had a good impression of Bonnie.

However, Emily was worried about Bonnie staying with Darren. She was afraid Bonnie would get hurt. She wanted to help her, but she could not find a way.

In fact, Emily had been worried about this matter for quite a while. She could not sleep or eat well because of it.

When Jacob came back from work, he saw Emily sitting there brooding.

"Are you okay, Emily? What are you thinking over there? You're so lost in your thoughts that you didn't even notice my return. What happened? Is everything all right?" Jacob put his briefcase aside and loosened the tie around his neck.

"I went to see Bonnie today. We had coffee together," Emily replied. Emily wanted to tell Jacob what she was thinking and ask him to help her.

"And then? Did something go wrong?" Jacob guessed that something must have happened.

"It turns out that Bonnie doesn't know who Darren really is. She thought he was just an ordinary man called Danny," Emily answered. She was afraid that Darren was cheating Bonnie and getting away with it by using a fake name.

"Really?" Jacob was surprised.

"Yes. That's why I'm so worried about her. I'm scared that Darren will do something to hurt her. After all, Bonnie is so simple and so kind. Who knows what a freak like Darren is capable of doing to her?"

Emily felt nervous every time she thought about Bonnie living under the same roof as Darren.

"Maybe it's not like that at all. Maybe Darren didn't tell Bonnie the truth because of some things he should consider. Don't think about it too much," Jacob comforted Emily. He thought Darren was not as bad as Emily thought he was.

"How can I not think about it? He lies to Bonnie's face every day. I want to help her, but I don't know how," Emily said with a sad look on her face. She felt helpless.
