Chapter 138 Do You Dislike The Smell Of Wax Gourd On Me (2/2)
As they pull out of the airport, Victor invited Emily to have lunch with him. Emily was honored. Here was a respected designer, admired by many for years, and who had helped her so many times, invited her to lunch. She accepted without hesitation.
When they arrived at the restaurant, they were ushered inside a private room. They sat next to each other and discussed jewelry w
is choppy here. Hello? Hello! I can't hear you. Can you hear me?” she said.
Jacob chuckled,”Naughty little girl.”
Emily clearly imagined the bright smile on Jacob's face. Her phone was glued to her ears and she could clearly hear Jacob's voice. ”I'm not a little girl anymore,” she muttered in a low, unhappy voice.
Right after she uttered those words, Victor's voice bellowed from inside the private room. ”Emily, did you get the shirt?”
”Yeah-” Emily shouted back. She saw the shirt in her hand and remembered why she was out there. But she immediately realized something was wrong.
Emily heard nothing but silence on the other end of the phone.
”Jacob? You still there?” Emily called out Jacob's name. She knew something was wrong.
”Who's with you? Where are you now? What are you doing there?” Jacob asked with no emotions in his voice. Emily couldn't figure out what Jacob felt at that moment. But she had a guess.
'Maybe Jacob has misunderstood the situation.'
Because Jacob was very jealous and possessive about her, Emily took her time before she spoke, careful not to agitate the situation,”It's not what you think, Jacob. Let me explain.”
”Okay, explain.”
”Mr. Victor just got back to Jingshi City. And I picked him up at the airport. We're just having lunch. The waiter was about to serve the hot soup but she tripped and spilled the hot soup. Mr. Victor covered me to protect me and the soup spilled on him. I got a clean shirt from the waiter and I'm here outside the room where we're eating, ready to give it to him.” Emily explained without taking a break, her throat parched from all the talking.
