Chapter 562 The Most Cruel Torture (2/2)

Emily took out the clothes and pulled out laundry detergent from the shelf. She wasn't particularly familiar with the brand, but she didn't pay muc

ong urge to hold this woman into his arms.

However, Jacob could tell that all kinds of thoughts were whirling around in her head, so rather than intruding on them he kept silent. 'Silly woman, why are you here? What are you looking at? And what are you thinking about?' He stood still, staring at the woman.

While Emily stood there completely motionless. All she did was sigh at some plants with her eyebrows furrowed. Clearly something was bothering her which pained Jacob's heart more than any physical scar he had ever incurred. He wanted to take away all her worries so she could smile once again.

From a close distance, she seemed to have lost quite a lot of weight. It was almost as though the wind could blow her away any minute.

'What's going on with her?' What Jacob saw didn't give him the satisfaction he thought he would get.

Yes, he wanted to torture Emily, and she needed to know that there were consequences to her actions! But he didn't mean to starve her. Jacob wouldn't sink that low!

Suddenly, Emily turned around, as she could feel his eyes burning into her soul.

When Emily turned around, Jacob hide himself without a conscious thought. Perhaps it was because he didn't want her to see him. He didn't want her to know that he was thinking about her all the time.

Jacob felt embarrassed by his weakness for her.

When Emily turned her head and saw no one behind her, she looked back at those flowers.

But before she turned around, Jacob caught the grievance in her eyes and he was stunned.

'What is she grieving? For who? Why was she grieving?

Is it so unbearable for her to be with me?

But why? Why is she trying so hard to stay with me?

Beryl? Is Beryl the reason why she did not want to leave?'

Jacob clamped his lips tightly, raging deep in his heart. But a few seconds later, his anger dissipated like a candle flame that had been snuffed out.

'Painful huh? Well guess what? You won't get the chance to leave me! I will show you the true meaning of pain.'
