Chapter 1054 Jacob Is Scum (2/2)
She had already caused Hunk and Louis immense distress. Therefore, she couldn't gamble further with the future of the Ke Family.
”Alter our deal just a little? Give me a reason! What would I get from you, Miss Bai?”
Jacob questioned as the corner of his sultry lips curved upwards. He raised his eyebrows expectantly and fixed his dark, questioning eyes on Emily's chest.

The skirt Emily was wearing revealed far too much of her skin. Her neck and collarbones were completely exposed to the cold air of the night.
There were hickeys all over her swan-like neck and collarbones. 'What should I do?' Emily asked herself, trembling with fear now.
At that moment, her eyes caught sight of some people approaching in her direction. With a rising sense of panic, she quickly hid behind the shrubs of the nearby flower bed and covered her mouth with her palms.
She thought, 'Right now, I'm standing not far from Jacob's villa. If they find me here and connect the dots, then they could tell everyone about it. It would be over for me then!'
Fortunately, the approaching strollers didn't sense anything amiss, and they walked away while chatting happily.
Watching their backs disappear around the corner, Emily stepped out of the flower bed and calmed her nerves by taking several deep breaths.
Looking down at her clothes in desperation, she suddenly had an idea.
She found that there was a broad ribbon around her waist, which was purely decorative. 'If I rip it off the skirt, some of my back will be expose to the air. But it doesn't matter if I pinch the material shut with my hand. If I put the ribbon around my neck, I think it will be exactly the size it needs to be, ' Emily thought.
It was getting darker and darker. Acting quickly, Emily gnashed her teeth and ripped the ribbon off her skirt. She felt the coldness of the air slide through her skin, and she shivered from the cold.
Emily quickly ripped the skirt. Luckily, no one saw her, for she was in the corner of the flower bed and some trees helped conceal her.
But even so, Emily's eyes still turned watery with embarrassment. Drawing a deep breath, she tried her best to calm herself down and prepare for the journey to get home.
