Chapter 1095 Accompanying (1/2)

Jacob muttered. His voice gradually became choked, hoarse, and desperate, echoing in the ward. Silence surrounded the two of them as his voice faded away.

”I love you. I really love you more than anything. It was my fault. My self-righteous attempts to protect you only turned out to be a huge mistake. It was me who hurt you. You must be very sad, aren't you?”

Jacob continued to make an impassioned unilateral declaration. He touched her cheeks gently with the pads of his fingers and moved his eyes across her face, tracing her eyelashes and lips slowly. The gentleness in his eyes fell on her face.

”Please, wake up. Promise me. You can get back at me for my misdeeds in any way you want if you could just wake up! Even if you want to take my life, it will be yours. I just want you to wake up, please.”

”I need to make a phone call, but I'll be right back. Don't miss me.”

Softly, he tucked the quilt around her and walked out of the ward. But still, his eyes sought out Emily's still form through the big glass window.

He would never be able to bear the pain if something bad happened to her again.

”President, where are you now? The news has been spreading and quite a few lucrative contracts are in the process of being cancelled. Moreover, a large sum of money is required in default fines due to our mistake. The company is now in a state of chaos and everything is at stake. What should we do?”
