Chapter 983 Michelle Wants To Replace Emily (1/2)
”Miss Emily, Jacob is my friend, and I won't ask for anything in return to take care of him. But if you would insist otherwise, I think you're not the right person to return the favor. I'm taking care of Jacob, so he owes me,” Michelle firmly uttered.
Her lips were pressed into a thin line as her dark eyes fixated on Jacob.
”By the way, Miss Emily, the doctor reminded us not to trigger his memories. So, it would be unwise to force him to remember the past. You know that he almost lost his own life because of that. And if you continue to stay here, your presence could provoke bits of his memories. Don't you want him to recover as soon as possible?” Michelle added, her right brow almost reaching the peak of its arc.
She was evidently jealous of Emily, who was Jacob's lawfully wedded wife. Even though the latter was back, Michelle still insisted on extending her stay at the hospital even though it was unwelcome.
”I am his wife,” Emily started with a strong emphasis on the last word. Her eyes pierced through the smug look on Michelle's face before continuing, ”Even if he has lost his memory, it doesn't change the fact that we're married. So, I will stay by his side to take care of him and wait until he remembers me. If time doesn't permit that, I will make him fall in love with me again.”
Tears formed in her eyes, but she furrowed her brows, giving off the confidence and lawful arrogance that wives usually exuded when faced with such a situation. She raised her head to keep the tears from falling.
Jacob, who heard how firm and unyielding she was, felt like his heart was being bitten by thousands of bugs. A vague figure appeared in his mind from time to time, and although he was not sure whether it was Emily or not, he still felt she sounded like Emily.
Suddenly, a massive pang creaked his head, spontaneously sending his arms to their sides. He released a grunt loud enough to disturb the two women.
”Jacob!”
”Jacob!”
Emily and Michelle cried in unison and rushed to Jacob at the same time. They were indeed worried about him.
