A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 1431

Jacob passed through the crowd in a rush as he walked towards Emily. "Don't be afraid. I'm here," he uttered.

Emily, who was in deep pain and anxiety, felt like she was going to pass out. Only when she heard Jacob's voice was she able to calm down. The bombardment of questions from the journalists sucked the air out of her lungs.

Jacob placed his hand reassuringly on Emily's shoulders. Then, he took off his coat and covered her with it.

After doing so, he helped her pass through the massive crowd of reporters.

But the reporters had no intention of letting them go that easily. They forced their way toward the couple and swarmed them.

When Jacob noticed this, he couldn't suppress his rage any longer and looked at every reporter with a murderous gaze. After that, no one dared to come closer or even ask questions. Not a single soul dared to go up against Jacob. Everyone was seemingly scared of losing their lives.

When they finally got through the crowd, Sam's car was waiting right in front of them. After meeting with the shareholders, Sam saw the news about Emily on the internet, so he rushed to her with the thought that something bad might have happened.

"Mr. Gu, over here! Get in the car!" Sam shouted as he got out of the car and opened the door for them.

When he realized that it was Sam who called out to him, Jacob quickly held Emily's hand and rushed over to the car.

Once they were both inside, Sam quickly drove away.

It was obvious to Jacob that the arrival of the media was premeditated. It was almost impossible for the reporters to arrive at Emily's room at the same time that Darren's men finished causing trouble. Darren certainly must have tipped the media companies to make them send all of these people.

Meanwhile, Harlan arrived at Darren's office.

"Mr. Xu, everything went smoothly," he politely reported.

"That's good. They painted me in such a bad light. How can I let them go so easily? If I can't live my life the way I want, no one else can!"

Darren replied, playing with the ring in his hand. With a vicious grin on his face, he uttered those words without a single shred of empathy. Anyone who heard him would tremble in fear.

Back in Sam's car, Jacob suddenly received a call from Taylor.

"Hello, Mr. Gu. How's Emily doing right now? Is there any sign of a relapse?"

Taylor's tone showed her overwhelming anxiety. She was clearly worried about Emily.

After all, it hadn't been easy to cure Emily's depression. If Emily were to have a relapse now because of this incident, it would be a great setback.

"It's fine, Taylor, don't worry about it. I'm with her now, and we're heading home. Rest assured, I'll be with her until everything calms down,"

Jacob responded as he placed his arm around Emily's shoulders, as if he wanted to reassure her that everything would be okay.

With his phone in the other hand, he continued to answer Taylor's questions and ease her worries.

"Okay, tell her to try and keep her composure. I'll be there soon." Taylor was still full of anxiousness while she said this.

After all, Emily's condition had just improved. If there ever was a negative fluctuation on a massive scale in her life, the possibilities of relapse were enormous.

Taylor finally said goodbye to Jacob, but not before reminding him to take good care of Emily.

After the call, Jacob placed the phone on his lap and massaged his temples. This stressful situation was affecting him as well.

"Emily, what do you feel right now? Do you feel any uneasiness or discomfort?" Jacob asked out of concern when he saw Emily's hands trembling.

"Jacob, I was framed. That man wanted to push me away, so I tried to stop him, but he fell instead as if I had pushed him.
