A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Jacob smiled at Emily. Then, he turned his head and kissed her hand.

Emily glared at him shyly. “You always take advantage of me.“ She withdrew her hand and ignored him.

Jacob smiled. “It's natural for me to take advantage of my wife.“

“You are so glib.“ After taking a look at the soup, Emily took a small spoon, scooped a little of the soup, and tasted it. She felt that it was a little light, so she reached out for the salt while answering Jacob's question. “I finished my work ahead of time, so I came home early. Well, aren't you home early too?“

It was only noon, and Jacob was already in their kitchen.

“That only means we think alike, don't you think?“ Jacob pointed at the necklace around his neck, the one designed by Emily.

At the sight of that, Emily smiled.

Seeing that Emily had returned to being energetic and happy like before, Jacob felt very contented. He reached out to touch her face and said, “Now you can get some good rest.“

Before the new product launch took place, Emily had stayed up late to work every day. Jacob had watched her grow weak and her skin turn sallow. He had felt sorry for her. But since he had known that she was doing something that meant a lot to her, he had had no choice but to support her all the way.

“Okay.“ Emily put her hand on Jacob's and nodded.

While the two were busy enjoying each other's company, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Emily and Jacob looked at each other. Then, Jacob went to open the door.

“Hello?“ a voice called from outside the door. It was Rita, who had been smiling brightly until Jacob opened the door. She froze for a moment. “Jacob...“ She had thought that Emily would be the one to answer the door.

Jacob smiled and nodded politely to her. Then, he stepped aside and let her in.
