Chapter 285 Youre My Sweetheart (2/2)

Jacob loosened his grip when he realized Emily was having some trouble breathing - but he still didn't let go of her. ”I'll get mad at you if you jump!” he said.

Jacob was so panicked that it hadn't crossed his mind that if Emily really did jump, he couldn't get mad at her anymore because she would be dead.

Emily gasped for air and explained intermittently, ”I... I did

eally made up your mind? Emily?” Jacob asked, as he let out a long breath.

Emily nodded and answered with a torn look on her face, ”Yes, I have.”

While it was supposedly good news for Jacob that Emily finally agreed to give up the baby, it didn't feel that way to Jacob. He wasn't as relieved as he imagined he would be - instead, he was feeling nervous now.

Jacob was feeling ill at ease and even anxious. He couldn't help but wonder if something had gone wrong.

Emily suddenly spoke, ”Since I've decided to give up the baby, I'd like to have a DNA test first before the procedure.”

Jacob stiffened as soon as he heard this but he just simply responded, ”Okay.”

In reality, the reason why they hadn't had a DNA test yet was because they didn't want to know the result. It was as if they were trying to hold out hope that maybe, it could still be Jacob's.

On the other hand, if they did a DNA test and they found out something they didn't want to find out, then they would lose something very important. That was the reason why they had been delaying the test for so long.

But now, they both agreed to have the test. And although Jacob was feeling slightly sad about giving up the baby, he knew he had to stand by this decision because this was for Emily's safety and he would do anything for Emily.

He ran his handkerchief under warm water and used it to gently wipe Emily's tear-stained face. He spoke in a conclusive tone, ”Emily, no matter what the result is, we're still not keeping it, okay?”

Emily's tears started to well up again as she said, ”Okay.”
