Chapter 903 See You (1/2)
Ray could not help but feel embarrassed at hearing what Jacob said. He found it hilarious to see Jacob, the stern CEO of the Bai Group, behave like this though.
He tried his best not to laugh as he rubbed his head in embarrassment and then said seriously, ”Mr. Jacob, I was talking to Emily. Does that concern you? Besides, we are both men, and I'm sorry to tell you this, but I'm straight. It would be too weird for me to hug you.”
Emily struggled to keep from laughing out loud at the humor of the situation and smiled instead. She felt relieved that the tension between them had been resolved with such good will though.
Jacob was almost 30 years old and he had already fathered two children. But he was still as domineering as he had been when they had first met. Emily knew that he would never share her with another man, not even for something as innocuous as a hug.
Feeling happy with the result of this meeting and not wanting to offend Ray, who had bared his young soul to them, Emily tugged on Jacob's sleeve and urged with a smile. ”Jacob, it is nothing more than a simple hug.”
Actually, she had not planned to give Ray a hug, either. She just wanted to see Jacob domineering and stubborn like this. It was endearing and flattering to see his devotion to her.
”It is quite impossible,” Jacob said in a low voice with a straight and brooding face. Then. he tightened his arms around Emily as if he was holding onto a precious treasure that he would never share with anyone else.
'Are you kidding me, Ray? Emily is mine! No one can hug her except me!' Jacob yelled at the young upstart in his mind.
The sudden hug from Jacob startled Emily and she lightly patted his back, giggling at the same time.
”What are you giggling about?” Jacob felt puzzled and lowered his head to look at Emily for answers. He was behaving more like a child than her husband now.
”You are so cute!”
Emily pinched Jacob's nose and winked lovingly at him. She loved it when he was jealous, because then, she knew just how much he loved her.
'Cute?
Did Emily say that I'm cute? Cute is for children! Why would she use such a word to describe me?' Jacob grumbled in his heart.
He was a little unhappy but was careful not to let it show. Jacob did however move closer to Emily and whispered in her ear, ”I know something else that is even cuter. Do you want to try it when we get home?”
His warm breath and sweet words fired Emily's blood and she flushed like a ripe tomato. Quickly, she buried her head into his chest to hide her state of arousal and embarrassment.
