A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 281

Emily stood dumbfounded as she felt the journalists' stares burrowing at her. He walked to her and wrapped an arm around her shoulder, "Many people from the Internet insulted her, causing her trauma! As her boyfriend, I will make sure that those who made those snarky comments will be dealt with!"

Then he turned to her with a soft expression on his face and whispered, comforting her, "Don't worry. I will make sure justice is served for you."

Wait? Justice?

He didn't need to get justice for her. Those rumors were actually true. He was the one who needed justice more than she did! She did so many bad things on him, so why was he still willing to protect her like this?

"Jacob, I..." Before Emily could finish her words, Jacob pressed a finger on her lips to silence her.

"Emily, hush now. All you need to do is love me," he raised her chin up a bit and gave her a sweet kiss.

All the journalists present and Jacob's henchmen were shocked by the kiss. "What a scoop!" Everyone did their best to catch the kiss on video and on photos. It was definitely going to be hot in the headlines tomorrow.

Before anyone could have noticed, the table was replaced with a red carpet with golden trimmings. It just really proved Jacob Gu's high social status.

Jacob gave Emily a gentle smile, amused with how awkward she felt. He snapped his hand and a beautiful song from a piano started to play.

"W-Wait. Where did all that music coming from?" Emily muttered, wide-eyed.

She searched for the source of the music until she set her sight at the piano placed next to the stage. The journalists followed her eyes. A gorgeous, golden-haired pianist played it expertly.

People started to whisper amongst themselves, "Who is he? Why does he look so familiar?"

"W-Wait! That's Phil! He's a famous pianist!" one exclaimed, "The videos of him playing the piano get millions of views!"

They all stared in awe. Hiring Phil to play at their proposal sure indeed had proven Jacob's status. The journalists started to feel excited on what would happen next.

Camera were all focused on them. TV Networks started airing the event unfolding in front of them.

Cheers filled the room when Sam walked in with a large bouquet of flowers.

After taking the huge bouquet of roses from Sam, Jacob suddenly knelt down in front of Emily.

Emily gasped at his gesture, covering her face with both of her hands.

Jacob focused on her. He looked at her tenderly, full of love.. "Emily Bai, I love you."

Emily's heart started to do somersaults!

Jacob was proposing to her. In front of the whole public! She couldn't imagine that he would do this for her!

Emily shut her eyes tightly, slightly slapping both of her cheeks. She better checked if she was dreaming or not! It was not a dream. It was all real. The man she loved was actually proposing to her.

Jacob settled the bouquet on his knee and presented a tiny red box at her. He opened it and a shiny diamond ring was revealed. "Emily Bai, I want to spend the future and the rest of my life with you."

The journalists kept shouting in delight as the scene unfolded in front of them. "I want you to be the first person I see when I wake up. I want to create a home and have children with you," Jacob continued.

"Emily Bai, will you marry me?" Jacob looked up hopefully at Emily, expecting an affirmative answer from her.

"Please accept all of my love," he spoke.

Emily stared back at his loving eyes. She felt there were only two of them in the room.

'Do you think you are worth it? Obviously, dirty women like you are worthless!'

Suddenly, a cold and icy voice rang in her head, pulling her mind back to reality. She was now torn between accepting and rejecting his proposal.
