A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 207

After contemplating on it for a while, Emily smiled and ridiculed herself for thinking of such things. She shook her head and continued watching the fireworks in the sky.

'It's so beautiful. I wonder if Jacob can see such beautiful fireworks from his place? What's he doing now?'

Emily wondered. "Crack", a firework set off in the sky. Its fiery sparks whipped the sky, bursting through the night, like brilliant inks of light on a canvas of stars.

Emily looked up with wonder. The burning colours looked glorious and vibrant, as the blazing trails curved above, drawing a pattern into the sky ---- 'Emily. Happy New Year'. The colourful words spread over the vast emptiness, almost covering the skies of Jingshi City in its entirety. To put it simply, it was breathtaking.

"So beautiful..." Stunned, Emily's eyes witnessed the beauty, when suddenly she heard the ringing of her phone. She picked it up and answered, "Hello..."

"Happy New Year, sweetheart!" The charming voice soothed Emily's ears, as if she could almost feel his loving presence.

Emily, couldn't help smiling as she said, "Happy New Year, Jacob."

"Did you see the fireworks?" he asked. His captivating voice illustrated his pleasing smile through the phone.

"Yes, it's fantastic," answered Emily. From the smallest details to grand gestures, only Jacob would spare no effort to bring a smile in Emily's face.

"Then look and listen carefully... Emily, I like you so much," Jacob said.

Almost in an instant, Emily's cheeks flushed red. Suddenly, another firework exploded in the sky again, forming colorful words, like painting on black canvas---- 'Emily, I like you so much'.

Another round of glittering fireworks exploded in the sky and lit up the night. Each time they would form different typefaces.

'Emily, I miss you so much'.

'Emily, you are the light in my heart'.

'Emily, you are my one and only'.

"..."

Jacob repeated every word in a gentle way, sounding like a grand concerto of violoncellos in Emily's ear. She could hear his voice clearly, even through the sound of the fireworks.

The vivid colors ignited the otherwise black sky for a long time, and gradually Jacob's voice became husky.

"Emily, I love you." The last sentence finally disappeared in sky right after Jacob uttered them.

Emily gasped, unable to respond immediately. She touched her face and felt the tears flowing down her cheeks. Emily smiled, as if every bad thing in her life had disappeared. "Jacob, I love you too," she replied.

The entire night the fireworks sent hot sparks into the cool evening air, soaring until they were extinguished to blackness. It was the most beautiful and romantic love letter Emily had ever received in her life.

Apart from Emily, all the people in Jingshi City witnessed this great and romantic gesture on the night of New Year's Eve. This really struck the nerves of those people who were still single and miserable.

Damn those rich couples!

Again, without her knowledge, she became the reason of everyone's envy in all of Jingshi City. They spent hours on the phone talking about things lovers usually talked about. After a few hours, thinking of Jacob's throat, they agreed that Emily would continue talking while Jacob would sit back and listen.

Soon, Emily reluctantly hung up the phone and they both went to sleep, but Jacob promised to come back earlier, so he could be with her.
