Chapter 1158 That Is Their Love (1/2)
Everyone said that marriage would burn the love away. However, Emily felt a little differently about it. She loved Jacob a little more every day. When they were young, she had loved Jacob for his handsome looks.
Now, years had passed by. The nice cover of the book had become wrinkled. However, she still loved the book. She loved Jacob not only for his looks. Although he looked sloppy, sitting slouched on the couch with a crying baby in his arms, she still loved him. She loved him even more.
For Jacob, it was the same.
It had been easy for him to make her all the promises in the world and protect her while they were young and in love. However, it was indeed something rare that he still loved her after their passions had burned out. He still made sure to make her feel safe and loved for all of their days together.
Their oldest child was already turning seven years old. They were now an old married couple. However, his love towards her had never waxed or waned. He was still willing to give her the whole world and support her every dream.
Emily looked at Jacob, who was clearly tired but still trying to take care of the baby. She was glad he loved their baby that much. However, she worried about his health at the same time.
”Nanny, please take the baby to get some sleep and let the kitchen know to prepare some nutritious soup for Mr. Jacob.”
”Yes, Ma'am.” The nanny walked over and gently took the baby from Jacob. ”Mr. Jacob, let me take him.”
”Be careful!”
Emily walked over and clambered up behind him. She patted his back and said in a commanding tone, ”Lie down now!”
”For what? Are you going to stab me in the back?”
”Just do as I said!”
Emily pushed him insistently and forced him to lie on the couch. She knelt down at his side and started to give him a massage. Her nimble fingers worked at the tight muscles, and she was surprised to feel how much weight he had lost lately. She could feel his bones as she kneaded at his muscles. His shoulders were tense like hard rocks.
Jacob was a man with consistent habits. She remembered that he loved to take a bath and have a massage once in a while. Even though he was always exceptionally busy, he would still make sure to keep his body fit and maintain his health. Feeling his muscles so neglected shocked her.
”I am going back to work next month. It's so boring at home. The baby is going to drive me crazy!”
”When Love and Dream hits big, I will hand this project over to you and I will stay at home to take care of our kid?” Jacob replied with a big smile on his lips.
