Chapter 149 I Feel Safe With You (2/2)

Emily looked directly into Jack's eyes and took a deep breath to prevent herself from being unstable,”So? You want to force me to make up with you because you saved me?”

When Emily heard this news, she held onto Jacob tightly and pressed her face to his chest. Jacob's fast paced heartbeat made her feel calm and secure. Then she said,”I see. You know what? I feel safe with you by my side.”

Love and compassion appeared in Jacob's eyes, as he said,”I know.”
