Chapter 278 Maybe It Was Just An Illusion (2/2)
Jennifer just stood behind the door, waiting. What was taking him so long? Her high heels were starting to hurt again! Then she lifted her face when she heard the door open. She clicked her tongue when she saw Jacob and Emily being sweet towards each other. And she was green with envy when she realized what they had been doing inside from the smell in the office and Emily's flushing face.
She took a deep breath and flashed a fake smile in a fake enthusiastic voice. ”Oh, I didn't expect that Ms. Emily would be here also!”
”Well, isn't it obvious?” Jacob replied sarcastic
engaged. His whole attention was on Emily, recommending the delicious dishes to her. ”You should try this one. See? This one is too salty for my taste!”
Jennifer felt that she had lost her appetite as she looked at the happy couple in front of her.
She pretended not to care but it only caused pain to her. She cared about Jacob so much and started hating Emily.
She found herself wallowing in self-pity. She couldn't bear seeing Jacob being sweet towards Emily. She wanted to scold herself since it was her idea that the four of them should have dinner together.
”Why aren't you eating anything?” Magee asked, snapping her out of her thoughts. Then he pushed a dish towards her, ”This is your favorite, as far as I could remember.”
”Thanks,” Jennifer turned to him and smiled.
Magee had feelings for her. She knew that but she couldn't return them.
He didn't mind waiting for her though.
Jacob and Emily were focused on each other. Jennifer was lost in her thoughts. No one noticed Magee taking out his phone and secretly took a photo of Emily. He sent the photo via text and typed, ”Is this Emily?” He waited for a while to receive a reply.
”Yes! That's her!” The unknown number answered. Oh dear, Emily Bai.
Whoever was on the other side definitely wanted her dead.
Magee smiled quietly as he placed his phone back in his pocket.
His glanced at Emily with both of his hands under his chin, smiling with evil intentions.
