Chapter 656 Shes Emily! (1/2)

Jacob's missing incident was already over and solved, but Emily could not shake off the feeling that somehow something similar might happen again. She worried too much for Jacob to the point that she refused to let him out of her sight.

Jacob found no issue in this. He actually preferred to spend time with Emily. Being with Emily made Jacob happy, but it displeased Sean to the core.

Sean became more intimidating and unapproachable. Nobody in the mansion wanted to come in contact with him. They all avoided talking to him. Everyone worried that he would lash out his anger on them.

All the house helpers and bodyguards were careful around Sean. They watched every action and every word they uttered around him for the fear of accidentally irritating him.

The only ones who were carefree around the mansion were Jacob and Emily. They spent all their time together and neither of them seemed to have detected the change in Sean.

Emily found it hard to believe that Sean would want to hurt Jacob. She could not even think of a reason he would do so. After all, they had never even met before all this.

Jacob silently observed Emily's reaction to this. Then he sheepishly answered, ”Hey, I was just kidding.”

”Never do that again! Okay?” She reached out her hand and stroked Jacob's forehead, with concern etched on her face. ”Are you feeling okay? You look sick. What are you feeling? Stay here. I will call Sean so he could check on you.”

”No! Don't!” Jacob suddenly sounded terrified. He held Emily by the waist and exclaimed, ”It's okay. I'm fine! I
