A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 505

Only the sound of Jacob's voice echoed throughout the empty valley.

Jacob's eyes were burning and his chest felt heavy as if it were filled with lead. He could no longer see clearly.

'Is she really really gone? Forever?'

All of a sudden, some memories flashed through his mind and as much as he tried to hold it in, the pain came out like an uproar from his throat in the form of a silent scream. The muffled sobs wracked against his chest.

'I wonder if she felt fear and helplessness before she fell off the cliff?'

Emily was so delicate that she should be taken good care by him, but he failed to fulfil his duty towards her. ·

'Why...why wasn't I the one to fall instead of her ?'

When Cherry finally calmed down, she rushed to the edge of the cliff only to see

a man on his knees staring down the cliff with two eyes filled with sorrow as if he'd lost the most precious thing in his life. ·

Cherry noticed Jacob's tears, and the scene

squeezed the life out of her heart.

In her eyes, Jacob was a strong man with an indomitable spirit who shouldn't have to cry for a woman.

'Why is he crying over a woman?'

The idea that, "men are superior to women" was ingrained in Cherry's mind. The thought of a man crying over a woman was so foreign to her, she felt jealous of Jacob's love for Emily. However, a part of her felt fortunate

that Emily fell over the cliff and died. ·

In that case, Jacob's strong feelings for the woman would belong to her eventually. ·

Cherry sat beside Jacob cautiously and gently comforted him, "Don't be sad. There's no use shedding tears for the dead. You can take me in her place. I will replace her and live for her..."

'And enjoy your love for her, ' Cherry added in her heart.

"Huh," Jacob sneered and all of a sudden his voice changed. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Waiting for me?" Far from how she had imagined it, Jacob's sweet words didn't feel as good as she thought it would. Instead, she felt a sense of malice in his voice. "What are you saying? What do you mean?"

Intimidated by the fire in the man's eyes, Cherry stood up and stepped away from Jacob without a conscious thought.

However, Jacob grabbed her arm before she could escape and pulled her back. "Why are you running away?"

Cherry was terrified, she realized Jacob was not himself anymore. "What the hell do you want to do to me?" Her voice cracked and her eyes widened. ·

Jacob glared into her face. His sight, as sharp as a knife, could cut her into pieces, and he asked, "You pushed her down, didn't you?"

Cherry was so frightened that she denied immediately, "It wasn't me! I didn't do it! Don't be ridiculous!"

"It was you," Jacob replied with certainty, seething in anger and hatred. ·

Jacob was smart enough to surmise the truth, since every evidence showed that Cherry was the suspect!

He had waited so long by the cliff just to get his hands on this vicious woman! Revenge was so close he could almost taste it with his own tongue.

"No, it wasn't me!" Cherry denied desperately.

"I am going to push you down, just like you pushed her." Jacob threatened Cherry as he glanced down the cliff, and for a brief moment his cruel eyes turned tender. "Emily, don't worry. I will accompany you soon after I avenge your death."

Cherry struggled to get away from him with all her might. "Ah! You must be crazy! Let me go!"

Cherry didn't want to die! She didn't want to die at all!
