A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 561

After quite a while, Emily slowly opened her mouth and spoke grudgingly, but clearly, "I apologize. Sorry."

Jacob narrowed his eyes.

'How could she be so transigent?' he thought in surprise.

At this moment, Bonnie was the happiest person in the room. She even forgot her place as a maid and she felt like she had just become the hostess of this villa.

Now she was sure that he did not like or care for Emily at all. "Mr. Jacob, I can see that she is not sincere at all... Anyway, I'm just a maid..." she pretended to still be aggrieved.

"Did you hear that?" He stared at Emily and continued, "Apologize sincerely, now!"

She gave a wry smile, and stared back at this man who had once been such a familiar and comforting presence. He was now a stranger. "So, are you suggesting that I kneel and apologize to her, Mr. Jacob?" she asked gently.

He stared into her misty eyes. It was as if a veil covered her intentions and thoughts. He could not quite get a handle on this strange woman.

But he could clearly feel and see the sadness in her eyes.

Hiding from the uncertainty that her presence brought, he replied in a cold voice, "Kneel? Are you always such a cheap bitch?"

She looked at him unblinkingly and said, "If you want me to..."

"So you mean that you would do anything I want you to do, right?" he asked, leaving the rest unspoken. "Yes," she said simply.

However, her answer did not please him. Instead it brought a fresh bout of anger. 'Emily, where is your dignity? Where is your principle? Don't you have any sense of self-respect?' he thought enraged. In the end he held back all those questions and just warned, "Remember what you have promised."

Turning, he disappeared up the stairs, his words still echoing in the silent room.

Bonnie stood there not knowing whether she should follow him or stay. She cast a glimpse at the motionless Emily and humphed, "What are you looking at? Apologize to me again, now! Just like you said. Kneel down and apologize!"

"Go to hell!" Though helpless when she faced Jacob, her attitude changed when she was confronted by the arrogant servant. Emily sneered showing her disdain, "What makes you think that you deserve that?"

"You..." Bonnie stuttered. She felt so angry and yelled, "So you were pretending to be sorry! Just for Mr. Jacob's sake! You never felt any remorse!"

"Remorse? I did not do anything wrong. Why should I show remorse?" Emily countered.

Bonnie clenched her teeth in blind rage, but as she remembered Jacob's attitude towards Emily she sneered viciously. "I shall ask Mr. Jacob to chase you out of here!" she threatened.

Emily was startled by what she said.

She would never have been threatened by these words before, but now everything was different... Jacob had become a stranger to her.

He was no longer the one who cherished her. She was no longer his treasure.

Sometimes, she would also feel confused whether he was still the one she once loved with her whole heart! He had forgotten all their sweet memories, and only remembered his fake hatred for her. He was a completely different person now!

However, she still did not want to give up.

She did not want to leave him to die within a month. So she could not desert him. 'Even though he does not love me, I still love him! That's enough! All I long for now, is that he should live.

It's okay. It's okay. Everything will be fine. I can do this. For him, I can do this!' Emily comforted herself secretly.

Bonnie noticed her expression change and sensing her weakness, she gave a cunning smile and closed in for the kill, "Tsk-Tsk, it seems that someone is scared now, or am I mistaken? So it's time to know your place. Apologize now!"

Bonnie raised her head high as if she was the hostess of this villa and Emily the servant!

Emily couldn't help being a little angry. She was just about to refute the instruction but was interrupted by Jacob who had returned without their noticing.
