Chapter 576 He Stole The Heart Of My Love (1/2)

Jacob's words completely sobered Emily up. She finally realized what Jacob meant.

”Is that the reason why you're asking me to have all these examinations today?” Emily murmured and looked at Jacob in disbelief.

The look of shock in Emily's eyes with which she was staring at him made Jacob feel uneasy. He didn't mean to insult her by imply she was cheating on him behind his back. He just cared about her health and wanted her to finish the examination.

Unfortunately, things didn't go according to his plans and he ended up hurting Emily's feelings. What kind of a person did he think she was? A common whore? This time Jacob had gone too far.

Just from the look in Jacob's eyes, Emily could imagine how much he detested her. In truth, however, Emily could sense Jacob's growing feelings for her even he did lose his memory. However, his failure to communicate adequately made his expression of his love as resentment. As a result he always ended up overreacting to everything she said or did.

'Does he think I'm some kind of indecent woman? Why does he treat me with so much disrespect?' Emily wondered.

Having noticed Emily's disheartened face, Jacob came to the realization that he had blown things out of proportion. Just as he was about to make amends, he was interrupted before he could even open his mouth.

”Sure. I will take that medical test, since you don't believe me,” Emily said slowly, as if she had squeezed the words from her teeth.

Jacob's heart ached to see her so dismayed by his words. He immediately regretted his words, born out of his childish impulsion.

He was on the verge of conceding defeat to Emily as he felt overwhelmed by his urge to hold her tightly in his arms and beg for her forgiveness, but he controlled his emotions.

Jacob knew it was not about trust. Emily said she didn't have much time left. What could she mean? Whether she was really ill or not could only be proven by the test result. The paranoia had bested him and he was desperate for the truth. Sadly, the only thing that could set his heart at ease was the result of the medical test.

His mind would remain restless and he would lose sleep over it if he didn't uncover the truth. This lack of clarity could only stir up more doubts, fears and even anger in the future.

Jacob hated all these negative emotions and he didn't allow any of them to occupy his heart any more.
