Chapter 1001 Jacobs Decision (1/2)

Emily sat quietly on the bed and watched Sam pack up Jacob's belongings for him, while Louis packed her bags. There was no point for Emily to stay in the hospital since Jacob was not going to be here any longer. However, a sudden feeling of uncertainty overwhelmed Emily as she didn't know what to do next.

Emily wondered if she should just take the kids and go back to MK manor with Hunk. The other course of action would be to shamelessly follow Jacob back to Tyrone Mansion.

In truth, she really didn't want to be separated from him. After all, they were just starting to get close again. She feared what the distance would do to what she had with him right now.

As much as she dreaded the thought, Emily didn't know how to bring it up to Jacob. A part of her was also afraid that he would disallow her from going with him. If that was the case, all her dreams would die and she would lose all her strength and courage to fight for their relationship.

Sam took a pitiful look at Emily, who was sitting across Jacob and hesitantly said, ”Mr. Gu, your bags are packed. Are we... going to wait for Miss Emily?”

Later on, he had realized why Ray had said that Emily's accident turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

Ever since that day, he had been thinking about Emily. On that night, he had dreamed about what they had gone through in the past. However, for reasons unknown to him, he just couldn't talk to Emily about it.

Jacob was great at many things, apart from being bad with words. As a result, he decided to protect her the only way he knew—through his actions. Not only did he find it difficult to express himself through words, he found it even more difficult to talk about his feelings with someone else. Knowing how stubborn Emily was, if he had told her about his plans, she would have followed him without a doubt and ended up getting herself in danger.

Therefore, Jacob felt that he had be the one to make the hard decision.

Emily's heart broke into pieces when Jacob dismissed her. Shocked, her frail body trembled and her
