Chapter 57 The Ability To Burn The Bridge After Crossing It (1/2)

Sam felt stressed, but he had to repeat it again. ”Miss Emily returned to Jingshi City with Mr. Jack a few days ago.”

The atmosphere in the ward was very quiet and depressing.

Fortunately for Sam, the storm he was expecting did not come. Instead, his boss laughed out loud, all of a sudden, even though there was no trace of happiness in his eyes. It was terrifying!

”Very good, Emily.”

The first person he wanted to see after he woke up was her, but she was fooling around with her old lover. That was quite bold of her.

Although the temperature in the room was suitable, Jacob's facial expression sent chills down Sam's spine. He silently prayed for Emily.

……

Emily had been back in Jingshi City for a few days now. She was glad that she hadn't seen Jacob, but she also had a strange feeling at the back of her mind she couldn't shake off.

Old habits die hard.

Just as she was thinking of him, she received the first call of Jacob in days.

Emily didn't stop to think about it too much and answered her phone. Before the word ”Hello” was even uttered, the person on the other side of the call dropped a bomb.

”Emily, did you think I was dead?”

What?

Why did him curse himself like that?

What happened to his tone?

It was like a husband catching his wife red-handed, cheating behind his back...

Emily was so confused that she didn't know how to respond. Jacob demanded,” You'd better give me a reasonable explanation.”

”…… What explanation?”

”Are you stupid?”
