Chapter 743 You Are Jealous (2/2)
ed person, Jacob was very insecure and paranoid about even the tiniest things as long as it concerned Emily. At home, he was envious of Bowen and when Emily would go out to work, he'd nurse a jealousy against every man around her.
Jacob's face clouded over, and a gleam of embarrassment flashed across his eyes.
He denied expressionlessly, ”No.”
It was hard for a man of his statue to admit his jealousy, but it was more hard to stop being jealous of whoever approached his beloved woman.
”Okay, I believe you. But I have to say that Ray is very cute!” Emily taunted Jacob. 'If Bowen grows up to be as handsome as Ray, perhaps he can also become a star.'
Emily sighed heavily, looking off into the distance in a daze, eyes focused on nothing in particular. Jacob's darkened face leaned over and bit her on the cheek.
”It seems like you're not so busy at work after all. Let's get to some real work then,” he spoke in a raspy voice.
He let his eyes settle upon her rosy lips with a meaningful look as if he was going to kiss her at any time. Emily recalled what had happened before and she could feel the heat growing in her cheeks.
She opened her mouth to say something when, all of a sudden, her phone rang.
Emily glanced at the screen and immediately answered the phone, ”Hello, Joyce.”
”Director Emily, how's everything going?” Joyce's voice came from the other end of the line.
Emily looked up at Jacob, who had a gloomy face, and answered, ”Everything went off without a hitch. We can sign the contract tomorrow.”
”That's great! But you'd better come back to the company now. Something important has come up. I think we have a big problem,” Joyce sounded deeply concerned.
Emily was stunned for a second.
”I see. I'll be back in a tick,” she said and hung up at once without asking any more questions.
