Chapter 200 Emily Is Not Here (2/2)
Everything was smooth sailing after that. Emily did not know how Anne had managed to pull it off, but all the safeguards that were installed to monitor Emily's movements were gone. The whole hospital was quite and empty.
Before long, they found themselves at the gate of the hospital. Driven by adrenaline, Emily strode faster and faster, thinking of what had happened the last time she tried to escape. Having learnt her lesson, she did not want to waste even one second in that place.
In her feverish haste, Emily didn't notice the
not here!” she screamed at him.
Jacob finally looked at Anne, with gloom in his eyes. He asked,”So where is Emily now?”
”How would I know? She has just escaped from here!” yelled Anne.
”Escaped?” Obviously, Jacob couldn't take her word for it.
Fearing that Jacob would hurt Victor, Anne stood before Jacob and said in a cold, stern voice,”I pity Emily for having you as her boyfriend. What took you so long to find her? She was much wiser to have saved herself!”
Exasperated, Jacob's face darkened as his glare on Anne grew more malicious and unforgiving.
However, Anne was not threatened by his disposition, as she stared back at him and said,”What are you looking at? Why are you still standing here? Why don't you go and find Emily right now! Are you planning to sleep with us here?”
Dumbfounded, Jacob didn't have any words to face up to Anne's moxie. 'This woman... is insufferable.'
Jacob snickered. Then he ordered some of his men to stay back and keep an eye on Victor and while he led the others to search the whole city for Emily.
Almost an hour after Jacob had left, Victor finally woke up. When his drowsy eyes fell upon the strangers at the gate, the first thing that came to his mind was Anne. He quickly looked around and instantly felt relieved at the sight of Anne sleeping soundly close by.
Seeing the people outside, Victor immediately knew that they were working for Jacob. To his surprise, Jacob had managed to find Emily sooner than he thought he would. Victor knew that the truth would eventually come to light, sooner or later, no matter how hard he tried to keep it concealed.
