'This is a very crucial moment and I must not involve Emily in my conflict with them. Otherwise, they will use her to get to me. In that case, the consequences would be disastrous.
So, the first thing I have to do is keep her safe, even if she ends up hating me for it, ' Jacob thought.
When Michelle heard Jacob call Emily's name, a gleam of jealousy appeared in her eyes, and she cursed Emily in her mind. However, on the surface, she pretended to be calm, looking at Emily haughtily. Noticing Michelle's arrogance, Emily felt even more aggrieved.
"Well, I see,"
Emily said as she turned away from Jacob. She didn't want him to see her eyes as she had been sobbing for a long time and they had become red and swollen.
Disappointed, she continued in a cracked voice, "Then I won't bother you two. I'm leaving now."
Distracted, Emily staggered to the roadside and got into a taxi. She looked out the window with watery eyes, and her mind was a complete blank.
In fact, Emily didn't even know where to go next. After a long drive, the driver asked her where she lived, and she finally told him her address in a mechanical tone.
After getting out of the taxi, Emily dragged herself into the house. Then, tucking herself in with the quilt, she lay quietly in bed, as she had done before she left.
The hours ticked by, and night had come. Emily was still in bed like a soulless doll.
One day...
Two days...
For three days, Emily kept thinking of the days she and Jacob had spent together, and those memories were as clear as day in her mind. They had lived a romantic life together. As a loving couple, they had been deeply attached to each other. Thinking of those happy days, she could hardly believe the man Jacob had become now.
Emily went over her thoughts more than once. If she had not agreed to the operation on Jacob, things would not have been as bad as they were now. Maybe that way, the two of them could have cherished the last days of Jacob's life, although her selfishness might have led to a shorter life for him.
But now, she was getting hurt by him again and again.
Emily was deeply conflicted and her face conveyed an arresting spectrum of ambivalent emotions. If Louis had not come back for her at the right time, Emily's suffering would have lasted a lot longer.
"Yvonne! Yvonne! Emily?"
Louis
happy."
Louis tried to cheer Emily up by mentioning the two children to her again. He couldn't bear to see her sullen.
"I'll go and freshen up first," she said with a smile.
Thinking of her children, Emily immediately put aside the fact that she had been hurt by Jacob. She gritted her teeth and tried to sit up, completely oblivious to the fact that she had not made any movement for three days. Just when she was about to sit up, she felt a sharp pain in her legs and feet, forcing her back in bed with a loud groan.
"Well, I have an idea. Let me take you out for shopping and a massage. Then you can welcome your beloved children when you're ready, okay?"
Louis pretended to rub his eyes as he spoke because he didn't want her to see his tears. With a faint smile on his lips, he tried to comfort Emily with some caring words while gently massaging her calves.
'I can't allow her to waste away like this!' Louis decided.
"Okay... Sure,"
Emily replied in a low voice. Louis didn't know that Emily had seen the tears in his eyes and she felt overwhelmed by feelings of guilt.
'I shouldn't have made him worry about me so much, ' she thought bitterly.
After they got into the car, Emily sat next to Louis. "How bad do I look now?" she whispered to him as she tugged at his arm with a perturbed expression on her face.
Emily was just about to look at herself in the rear-view mirror when she was stopped by Louis. With a sarcastic smile, he said to her gently, "You don't need to do that. You're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen."
