A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 269

Despite of what happened, Jack remained a member of the Gu family. Despite Mr. Gu's anger, he spoke to Arthur, "Send someone to keep an eye on him."

"Understood, sir. It will be done immediately."

Mr. Gu brought the teacup to his lips, savoring the tea's warmth into his system. However, it wasn't enough to change his bad mood, "One more thing. Kindly check up on what Jacob has been doing lately!"

Mr. Gu thought he treated Jacob as if he was his own son. However, Jacob obviously had never been grateful to him.

He remembered that Jacob threatened him with the Gu Consortium because of Emily. Having been the CEO for so many years, Jacob knew all the secret transactions that would make the business crumble if they were ever brought out to the public.

For the first time, Mr. Gu was aware that Jacob didn't care about anything in the consortium at all, or maybe he knew something about what Mr. Gu had been trying to hide all these years!

If that was the case, he didn't need to be kind to Jacob anymore!

Anything he gave Jacob, he could always take it back!

The Gu family were so busy in their own troubles, nobody noticed the dirty woman who escaped from Jack's basement.

Rose sighed in relief. She never thought that she would see the light of the day ever again.

She had been imprisoned in a dark basement and miserably tortured by Jack for too long. What date was it today? She had forgotten. She suffered so much that death could be considered a luxury for her.

She unexpectedly escaped and she was truly thanking the heavens for letting her go.

She had no idea what happened. It was all just a fuzzy memory. Right now, she wanted to stay away from the Gu Family, from Jack, and from the Tao Family. She had to find a way where they wouldn't find her.

She knew how much they hated her. And if they ever caught her, they will make sure she wouldn't escape and make her miserable for the rest of her life!

The sky was gray and dark. It was also raining hard.

Ignoring her pain, she limped until she reached the park. She found the rockery and sought refuge there.

She remembered her life before. She graduated from a prestigious university and later, became a chief jewelry designer of a well-known company. She lived a life of fame and flashing lights.

When she met and got into a relationship with Jack, she thought she would be able to live a high-class type of life. Then it turned out to be her biggest nightmare.

Jack, Jacob, and Emily. There were the ones to blame! They made her like this!

Her resentment towards them only fired up her will to live!

The rockery was filled with rubbish left by some uneducated tourists. She scurried through the rubbish to find food. She grabbed a piece of hard bread that went bad and took a bite of it. She must survive!

She must survive long enough to get her revenge!

As long as she lived, she would make sure to turn their lives into living hell!

Rose kept eating the bread, plotting her next step.

In the Tyrone Mansion, As time passed by, Emily came to know that even though Jacob didn't care much for the baby, he made sure that nothing awful happened to her. Instead, he kept watching on her condition so that cloud of doubt was gradually lifted.

Jacob had a point. If he was really persistent in aborting the baby, he would have let the procedure continue while she was sedated.

He accepted the baby for her sake. He wasn't over what happened between Jack and Emily so he had to pretend that everything was fine.
