A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 163

Jack was about to leave, but he sensed that something was not right. With razor-sharp eyes he looked towards the window and asked,"Who's there? Come out!"

Everybody's attention focused on the window, but there was no response.

Jack was almost certain that his doubts were justified, but he still kept a calm face and walked towards the window.

Emily did not want to hide anymore, so she stood up and raised her head to face with Jack.

"Emily! What are you doing here?" he asked.

Jack's heart started to race in his chest, but no one could see signs of nervousness in his eyes. He instinctively and cautiously moved to block Emily's visual field.

"Stop it! I have seen everything," she said.

"Emily, listen to me... " Finally, Jack's restlessness was beginning to show. He mumbled, trying to explain himself, but when he saw Jacob his face froze up in an instant. "Jacob, I didn't know you could be so sneaky!" said Jack.

'No wonder the guards hadn't reported any peculiarities. They came in sneakily!'

Jacob, on the other hand, remained as calm as a statue. He was completely unaffected by Jack's words. Jacob even did not look back at Jack, as he reached out to take off the straw on Emily's sweater casually.

For this kind of contempt, Jack felt extremely furious, but he also knew that it was not the right time or place to quarrel. Jack moved his sights to Emily, but he was met with an extremely cold face. Jack tried to explain to Emily.

However, Emily did not even give him the chance to utter a word. She said,"Jack, I never thought that you would do something like this."

Nevertheless, that was his unborn baby. It was still a developing infant.

The fetus was innocent and just a few months later, it would become a lively baby.

Seeing the disappointment in Emily's eyes, Jack felt more and more flustered. He said,"... Emily, did you forget everything? Rose had done so many evil things to alienate us and to hurt you! This was just a light punishment for her treachery!

I'm just helping you. I'm helping us to get our revenge. If it weren't for her, we would have never ended up like this!

She deserves it and of course, she has no right to give birth to my baby, nor be a member of the Gu Family..."

"Enough!" Emily yelled at him with pure disgust. She did not want to listen to his incessant pandering anymore.

"It is you who did this to yourself! Do not get me involved in your problems again and never use me as an excuse to commit atrocious crimes!"

Devastated, Jack felt a little sad,"I did not use you as an excuse. I do like you. No, I love you, Emily."

Jacob was stunned by Jack's confession, but he kept a calm countenance on his face.

How dare Jack say that in Jacob's presence! 'Jack... You always thought your life was too long to live, right?'

Jacob, however, did nothing and just stood next to Emily with his arms around her. He wanted Emily to decide how she wanted to handle the problem.

Jacob wanted Emily to see the bigger picture and know what a jerk Jack really was.

'Wow, she's really giving Jack the short end of the stick', Jacob mused.
