Jacob nodded his head to express dissent, and said,"Jack doesn't like her. Do you still think that her life will be better off?"
Emily thought about it for a moment and then said,"Never mind. They can do as they please. Rose is pregnant with Jack's child, so he should be responsible for her!"
Emily was having the best time of her life. She didn't want to let those unimportant people affect her mood.
After confirming that Emily really didn't care, Jacob was relieved and a gentle smirk appeared on his handsome face.
"Well, there's something I want to tell you," she said. Emily remembered what she wanted to talk to Jacob about and she said,"I would like to return to the LA Company to focus on my own work. Are you okay with that?"
Her aspirations of getting her revenge on Jack had disappeared, so there was no need for her to continue working at the Gu Consortium any more.
When Jacob heard her words, he immediately furrowed his eyebrows. He didn't look too happy with Emily's announcement. "Don't you want to stay here?" he asked, eagerly.
"I feel like I am not qualified for the job, and there is too much pressure for me here. Designing jewelries is something I would like to do more than anything else..." she explained.
"If you want, you can just come to work every day and do nothing. Just sit in the office and accompany me. You will still receive your salary. What do you think?" Jacob offered some attractive conditions.
Emily shook her head and humbly refused,"No, that is not right. I really want to return to designing jewelries. Could you please let me go... Please, Jacob? Mr. Jacob..."
The sound of Emily pleading sounded very attractive to Jacob. He almost gave in, but unfortunately for Emily, he was still determined. "No," he refused.
Jacob was not comfortable with Emily going back to LA, because of Victor.
Emily knew what Jacob was worried about, so she winked at him and said,"Mr. Victor went abroad on work again. Don't worry. He won't be there, and even if he is, I will avoid him, okay?"
Jacob snorted coldly. "You seem to know his schedule very well," he said.
Emily pouted her small cherry like mouth and continued to insist with puppy dog eyes. "So, can I? Can I please..." she pleaded.
She even took the initiative to put her arms around his neck, and shake his body gently. She begged in a soft and adorable tone, as if she were a spoiled child begging for a candy.
Jacob was too caught up on her luscious, red lips as she spoke to him. The light in his eyes dimmed slightly, and his voice sounded gravelly and hoarse, as he said,"Not at all, but you must grant me a request."
"What kind of request?" Emily asked, looking straight at him with a pair of big, eager eyes. To Jacob, she was glowing like a star, and was as pure and innocent as a child.
Jacob lowered his head and whispered to her ear. In an instant, Emily's face blushed red, she could not believe what that man was saying.
"You... you're acting like a rascal in broad daylight!" Emily exclaimed.
Jacob grinned from ear to ear cheekily. He stretched out his long, loving arms and embraced her. "Tell me, when did I ever act like a hooligan? Hmm?" he asked.
Emily stared at him timidly. She could never bring herself to repeat what he had said. "Anyway, I'm sure you're just joking. How can you, as a CEO of such a big company, think about such things everyday?" asked Emily.
"Then what should I do?" Jacob replied with another question.
"Things like that are intimate matters between two people who are in love with each other. Not many people in your position spend their days thinking about such indescribable things..." explained Emily.
"Oh, I can describe them to you," said Jacob, as he put his hands around her waist and smiled gently. He continued,"Because I am so into you, I'm always thinking about you. I feel like I don't respect your body enough if I don't also think about sleeping with you every now and then. Don't you think so?"
