Chapter 37 No Time Like The Present (2/2)
However, he was still annoyed at Emily for what she had said the other day. The fact that they had not spoken in a long time, made him even more unhappy.
But since Emily had sued for peace fi
id not have to be Emily.
Emily looked at him for a few seconds and sat down, skeptically. Then she pointed at the back of Jacob. ”The tag is still hanging from your blazer.”
No wonder there were many people peeking at Jacob, on the way there. They must have been amused.
”Tag?” Jacob finally remembered. When he opened the parcel and took out the blazer, he wore it straight away. He totally forgot about the tag! So he had the tag with him all day?!
The key point was that no one had the courage to tell him.
Emily then laughed again. ”My cousin was like you when he was a little child. He always liked new clothes. Every time he'd get new clothes, he'd be so excited to show off that he'd changed into it immediately without taking off the tag ...”
'Was Jacob the same?'
Immediately, Emily shook off the idea from her mind. How could it be possible? Emily did not notice Jacob's shock for a moment.
”Help me get rid of it.”
Emily looked around for a knife, but she couldn't find any. She couldn't break the thread with her bare hands so she bit the tag off.
Jacob felt that her warm breath was like soft feathers, gently rubbing his neck, itching, tingling and tickling his senses.
This feeling, however, only lasted for a few seconds.
”All right.”
Emily quickly removed the tag and threw it into the trash bin. When Jacob turned around, Emily's eyes met his deep and dark eyes, like they were calling out to her.
