A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 372

Jacob opened the door and carried her inside the car. As if finally straightened out his thinking, he said, "I shouldn't bother trying to reason with you, because it is not possible to reason with women. It's just better to solve problems with sex. If it doesn't work once, I will do it twice."

Jacob's huge stature towering over Emily inside the confined space of the car made her feel uneasy. She drew herself back subconsciously and said, "What are you doing?

"I am solving over problems."

"You are crazy! We're inside a car!"

"Would you like to do it outside the car?"

"Jacob!" Emily felt apprehensive and she panicked, "You are going too far. Do you want to force yourself on me like those animals from yesterday?"

"Did you just compare me to those rapists?" Jacob couldn't believe what he had just heard. He pulled Emily into his arms in a crushing embrace and said, "You've gone too far this time!"

Emily's words stabbed Jacob's heart like a sharp sword, and made him tremble with distaste and disappointment.

Jacob pressed his lips to Emily's in retaliation and squeezed her in his arms. "Damn, must I always force you to obey me?"

Emily felt like she was being strangled by a huge python. Gasping for air, she pleaded, "Let me go..."

"I won't."

"I promise I will listen to you..."

"It's too late now."

An air of ambiguity permeated the car. Jacob kissed Emily again and again, but he did not do anything out of the line.

Jacob hadn't forgotten what she had been through just yesterday. He made sure that Emily didn't feel unsafe in his presence.

After they pulled apart, Emily tidied up her clothes and fixed her hair. Her face was red, like a ripe cherry that had just been plucked.

Jacob was sitting in front, driving. Occasionally, he glanced at her beautiful face through rear-view mirror and his eyes grew darker each time.

Emily was the kind of person who would grow apart from Jacob, if he had not been aggressive enough to pursue their relationship. For instance, four years ago, if he had not forced her to stay with him, they would have never fallen in love.

This time, Jacob was determined to make her stay with him by any means necessary.

After a long silence, Emily spoke first, "That woman in the hospital, please give her some money."

Jacob frowned for a second and then replied," Okay."

Although, Emily had changed a lot over the years, her kind and compassionate heart remained unchanged.

Deep down, Jacob's Emily was the same person as before.

Although Jacob was not so forgiving of those who had hurt her, he chose to respect her will and her choices.

Emily said nothing more. Out of pity, she didn't hold any grudges against Delores, even though she tried to kill her and said all those horrible things to her.

In truth, no matter how hard one tries to change a person's perspective, sometimes people are just beyond help.

Emily looked out of the window lost in thoughts. Soon she would have to take Beryl back home, because she didn't want to take advantage of Jacob's help and overstay her welcome at his place.

If she did that, then there would be no difference between her and the opportunistic, self-serving women who hung around men for benefit.

Emily had worked too hard to avoid becoming that kind of person. She had already made up her mind about keeping a distance between her and Jacob.
