Chapter 213 I Can Taste You On It (1/2)

After spending peaceful days at the Tyrone Mansion, Emily felt like she was a panda in a reserve. Even her breeder, Jacob, didn't allow Emily to walk far unsupervised. Instead, he asked the chefs to prepare healthy food for her everyday. Jacob indulged her so much that she felt like a spoiled brat from a rich family.

To her relief, such an awkward lifestyle didn't last for a long time. Taking advantage of her cute appearance and coquetry, she successfully persuaded Jacob to let her eat less. However, she was still forced to stay at home so that she could have more rest.

Sometimes Emily would think of her mother Debby, but she decided to force Debby out of her mind as she had no idea how to face her.

What Emily didn't know was that, Jacob had asked his men to find out what happened that day at the hospital, and he now knew everything.

'Emily... So, she is a daughter of Tao family?' When Jacob learned the truth, his face darkened, as cold sparks flashed in his eyes. 'So, that means Tina is...Interesting, ' he thought.

Soon, a butler came in and said, ”Mr. Jacob, We have visitors. Mr. Abbott and his wife are here to see Miss Emily.”

Jacob scoffed, ”Emily will see no one today. Tell them to go back home.”

”I will, Mr. Jacob.”

”Wait,” Jacob suddenly stopped the butler; he slid the curtain open and stared at Emily who was playing with snow in the yard, and then he said, ”Call Emily back into the house first. Don't tell her anything about Mr. And Mrs. Tao.”

”Okay, Mr. Jacob.”

Several minutes later, Emily was back in the house. Standing in front of Jacob with curiosity in her eyes, she asked in an aggrieved tone, as she was rudely interrupted from her leisure time, ”What's wrong? Why did you send for me so soon?”

”Do I need a reason or an excuse to see you?” Jacob asked.

”Of course yes, unless you miss me,” Emily answered.

Jacob raised the corners of his mouth and stretched his arms to Emily, as he said, ”Come here, and let me hug you.”

Squinting at Jacob for a second, Emily trotted towards him and then threw herself directly into his arms. ”So, you really missed me, huh?” she asked.
