Chapter 1022 She Left Quietly (2/2)
Her delicate fingers caressed Jacob's desk softly, feeling the soft wood. Her lips quivered at the priceles
om. His forehead was sweating with nervousness, but he couldn't even wipe it off. He would go so far as to get down on his knees and beg God to make her appear back in the house.
Shoes, clothes, cosmetics, pens, and photos... The things Jacob had thrown away and Emily had brought back were gone again. His own room was unbelievably clean as well.
Jacob did not give up. He searched for the photo album he had hidden from Emily. He took out all the albums one by one so violently that he almost tore the covers. In the end, he had to throw himself on the ground, feeling completely tired and defeated.
Emily had taken away all the things related to her!
Jacob screamed at the top of his voice. He looked almost like someone who'd gone insane with his red eyes and threatening body language.
”Emily!”
He walked down the staircase devoid of all his spirit, and fell quietly on the sofa. He kept murmuring Emily's name with his eyes stuck blankly to the ceiling.
When she'd been here, her name had been like a sharp blade to him. He would always be on his guard around her, ignoring her as much as possible. But now that she was away, her name was like a necessity. Its sound in his mouth in her absence devoured all his power, making him feel completely energy-less.

'Divorce Agreement', he read in his head.
