Chapter 27 Apologize (2/2)

Jacob glanced at the screen to see who it was. His long narrow eyes squinted slightly, as he

answered the phone,” Victor.”

”I have already prepared the contract for the shareholders you mentioned last time.”

”It's all up to you.” Jacob Gu obviously had an axe to grind in this matter, so he added,” Do you have anything else to explain?”

”Explain?” Victor let out a little smile from one corner of his mouth,” Are you talking about Emily Bai inviting me to dinner, or giving me clothes?”

”Victor.” Jacob's blood was starting to boil.

There was a hint of banter in Victor's tone, as he said,” This is a rare occasion for me. I finally have something to provoke your emotions with.”

Jacob did not respond, and yet Victor knew that he was really angry and jealous of him because of a woman.

”Emily doesn't know that you helped her. She thinks it was me,” Victor sighed before continuing,” Jacob, that's not the way to go after a woman.”

”Shit!” Jacob couldn't tolerate Victor's words anymore so he cursed at him and hung up on his face.

Victor did not understand the situation clearly, so he thought he was just helping by giving Jacob a talking-to!

Sam glanced at his big boss carefully, not knowing whether to continue reporting or not. He stood there waiting, until the boss cast a fiery glance at him; he continued,” And we found out that Mr. Jack and his men have been monitoring Miss Bai; they have also been taking pictures of her secretly.”

”Jack?” Jacob sneered,” I think he is being too idle. Find something to keep him busy if that's the case.”

”Yes, Mr. Jacob.”

......

Emily Bai remembered Jacob's help in her heart. She always wanted to find an opportunity to thank him, but for some inexplicable reason, she did not dial his number.

In truth, she didn't know how to face Jacob Gu.

The next day, Emily got off work and left the company. Emily had a lot on her mind, so she didn't pay attention to her surroundings.

Emily walked for a long distance before she realized that something was wrong. Behind her was a large group of people, and most of them looked quite familiar. Emily soon recognized that they were exactly the same people who gathered up in front of her apartment and attacked her that day. Before she knew it, she was surrounded by those emotional netizens!

”What are you doing?” The unannounced presence of the people cast a shadow over the heart of Emily Bai. Her whole body was tense and alert to their approach.

The group of over zealous people walked up to Emily and surrounded her. It seemed like one of them even had something in his hands. 'Would it be a weapon?' Emily was startled.

She made a run for her life, but someone grabbed hold of her and dragged her back immediately. She fell straight into their circle.

”I didn't plagiarize!” She shut her eyes and shouted this sentence repeatedly.

The people surrounding her was stunned to see her like that; their expressions became convoluted.

After a while, when Emily didn't hear their movements, she opened her eyes in surprise and looked up into the people around her with almost same expressions.

What happened to these people? What did they want to do this time?

”Excuse me, Miss Bai.” The boy who stood at the forefront seemed to be somewhat uncomfortable with Emily Bai's gaze. He cleared his throat and explained,” Actually, we are here to apologize.”

”Apologize?” Before Emily Bai could ask more questions, they started to speak.

”Yes, we apologize for our impulsive and extreme behavior before. We all misunderstood you, Miss Bai. We're really sorry.”

The clear and loud sound of ”sorry” surrounded Emily Bai. Her feelings were all over the place, like a spilled bottle of sauce, ups and downs, all in one.

”We are willing to make it up to you. Just ask for it and we'll make it happen.” The boy passed something to Emily; his ears was a little red when he pleaded,” I hope that you will accept our apology.”

”There's no need for apologies. It doesn't matter.” Emily's perspective of the other party took a while to change. It wasn't until someone had placed something in her hand when she finally realized, that the other party was not carrying something to attack her. Instead, they were carrying a bunch of yellow roses to give to her.
