Chapter 659 Your Sister (1/2)

The lights were not on and the room was plunged into darkness.

Emily was encircled in Jacob's arms. She raised her eyes and was stunned by his stare. His eyes seemed filled with a thousand stars and she could not tear away her gaze.

She was vaguely aware that something had changed. It was strange.

”Seventh, it's late. Why are you still awake?” she asked, swallowing as she realized how dry her throat had become.

Feeling slightly uncomfortable she pushed him away.

Jacob turned on the light and looked at her. She wore a thin dress, revealing her white arms and legs, while also exuding the temptation of innocence behind the gossamer fabric.

His eyes darkened, ”I can't sleep.”

”You can't sleep, too? That's great.” Emily thought that since he was awake, her presence wouldn't been regarded as an interruption. ”Let's talk, shall we?”

”Okay!” Jacob naturally met her request. Absently he took a soft blanket and draped it about her shoulders. ”It's cold at night.”

She did not refuse his kindness and thanked him.

They sat together on the balcony and looked up at the stars. The atmosphere was quiet. It was as if the world only consisted of the two of them, the balcony, and the stars. Emily's mind was still confused by the dream, and she did not know how to start. Sadly, she did not notice that Jacob was staring at her.

His eyes were tender as moonlight, with a hidden, deep love.

He thought that if Beryl could be there, they would be reunited.

If Beryl knew that her mother was still alive, would she be happy?

Emily did not know what Jacob was thinking about just then. But after a long period of psychological construction, she began to ask, ”Yesterday, when we were in the orchard, you said you dreamed about your past. You haven't finished telling me about it yet. Why don't you go on now?”
