Chapter 726 I Just Love You More (1/2)
Jacob said in a voice filled with concern, ”But I'm worried about you...”
Emily asked, ”And what about Beryl? If something were to happen to her, I would not have the courage to continue living...”
”I have already asked someone to go find her. They will certainly protect her from any harm...” Before Jacob could finish, he saw Emily's tears begin falling like beads from a broken string.
Verging on panic at the sight of her distress, he quickly comforted her, ”Don't cry. Please don't cry. What do you want me to do? I'll do whatever you want, okay?”
”Don't you love Beryl?” Emily asked, while she wiped away her tears. Then she looked at Jacob with red rabbit eyes, seeking his assurance.
Jacob replied in a hurry, ”How could that even be possible? She is your daughter, and also my daughter. How could I not love her? I just...”
'I just love you more, ' he finished the sentence with an unspoken thought.
He couldn't say it out loud, because of concern for Emily's emotional state. She had clearly blamed him for not going after Beryl, when she had run away from home, and if he said that now, Emily might be greatly vexed or suffer a breakdown.
Emily licked her lips, then she inquired with anxiety filled eyes, ”Then you should go out to find Beryl and bring her back to me. You should make sure she is safe and sound. Hurry up...”
”Okay. I will do it.” Jacob had no other options but to tell his subordinate to strengthen security measures around the recovery room where Emily was recuperating, and then he went out to bring his daughter back himself.
To be honest, his actions didn't mean that he didn't care about his daughter.
It was just that Beryl was so emotional at that time, and he thought it would be better for her to cool off by herself for a while. However, he had almost forgotten about another person in the equation-Ancho.
There must be some strange agenda with that woman.
Jacob made a call to the subordinate who was responsible for finding Beryl. Once Jacob knew where they were, he quickly drove there and picked them up, before returning to the hospital.
