A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

“Hmm.“ The dolls were made of soft fabric that she loved so much. Her eyes moved from one doll to another, admiring the workmanship of each one. Her heart skipped a beat as she still couldn't believe that Jacob had done this for her. Without taking her eyes away from the dolls, she asked, “Why did you suddenly think of doing this? We are just having dinner. Don't bother surprising me like this.“

Jacob smiled, pleased with himself. “That's okay. I like seeing you happy!“ Seeing Emily's reaction to the surprise that he had planned, he realized that he wanted to witness it more in the future. “I want to surprise you every day if I could,“ he said.

Emily turned to face him, her eyes a little teary. Every woman wanted to feel cherished by the person they loved, and Emily was so lucky to have Jacob, who truly cared about her feelings, by her side. Despite being married, Jacob did not stop making her feel loved, as if they were still a new couple.

“I already ordered the food. Come on. Let's have dinner first, in case you're hungry.“

Moments later, the dishes were served one after another. Emily always liked trying new food she had never eaten. Jacob had already tasted a lot of this food before, so it was not difficult for him to explain each dish to Emily as they ate the whole course. Emily had such a good time listening to Jacob that she did not notice the time passing by very quickly.

As soon as they finished their dinner, they decided to leave the restaurant. And as a souvenir, Emily took a doll from the pile that she was looking at. It was the most attractive one that Jacob had picked out for her. So while walking on the road with the doll in her hand, Emily attracted the attention of many passersby.

She whispered to Jacob a little too loudly, “I feel a little embarrassed.“ As if she was a little girl, Emily's ears turned red on the tips because of embarrassment. Although Jacob found her cute like this, he didn't want her to worry about other people. “Hey, it's okay as long as you like it. Don't care about what other people are thinking.“

Emily looked at Jacob and nodded to show him that she understood. Jacob smiled at her reassuringly and even squeezed her hand a little as they continued walking hand in hand. After getting into the car, Emily put the doll on the seat. She said to him, “Please, ask them to deliver the rest of the dolls to our house, or else it will be a waste of money.“

“Okay, if that's what you want.“ Jacob started the car and put its roof down. It was already getting colder outside and they felt the cool breeze stroke their cheeks. Welcoming the chill of the night, Emily closed her eyes.

When they arrived at home, Emily went in first while Jacob drove the car to the garage to park it. When he walked into the house, nearly ten meters away from their living room, he heard a scream.

The kitchen was a mess too, but not as messy as the bedroom they had just come out of. Emily found their female servant lying on the floor, so they both hurried to check on her.
