Chapter 1028 A Strand Of Hair (2/2)

”Miss Emily, here is your divorce certificate. Mr. Jacob asked me to bring it to you. Here you go.”

The formal manner in which Sam addressed her w

ould be a cruel goodbye letter.

Without further delay, Emily tore it open and a strand of hair fell out and landed on the ground.

This strand of hair was tied with a red rope.

Staring at it curiously, Emily's body shivered. Her eyes were fixated on it for a while. Her thin lips opened and closed several times. After a long time, a word finally came out her mouth.

”Ja-Jacob?”

She was certain that this strand of dark hair was Jacob's.

She got down on her knees and picked it all up in her hand. She placed her hands under her jaw and closed her eyes. Tears streamed down her cheeks again. However, her lips were showing something else.

Her pale, exhausted face was, all of a sudden, alive with happiness.

She remembered lying in his arms and poking his chin with her fingers. She remembered looking into his eyes and telling him that she wanted to go to the place where people would cut two strands of their hair and bind them together like people did on TV.

Jacob had agreed and promised to find the time to bring her there. After he had made her that promise, he had run his fingers through her hair and kissed her. Jacob's eyes, glowing like stars, had been filled with love and affection for her.

Emily's hope, which had been crushed by the divorce certificate, was put back together all of a sudden.

She opened her eyes and grabbed the first jacket she could find before running out of the house in her slippers.

Emily didn't care whether she was dressed appropriately or not. She looked down at her tiny toes as she wriggled them playfully. She couldn't help but burst into laughter. Finally, she had some respite!
