A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 76

"Falling into the same pit twice. I've never seen anyone as stupid as me. I'm not kidding. I voluntarily allowed others to make a fool out of me. Hahaha..."

Having gone way above her drinking limit, Emily was just spewing nonsense now. The phone in her bag rang again and again.

Frustrated, Rita sighed. She picked up the phone and answered," Hello."

The man on the other end of the call immediately realized that the woman who answered was not Emily, he asked," Where is Emily?"

Since Rita did not want to leave Emily there, and pass through the noisy dance floor, she raised the volume on the phone and shouted," Sir, I am Emily's friend..."

Before she could finish, the man interrupted her," Where are you now?"

Rita hesitated, as she didn't know who she was talking to," We..."

The man sensed the doubtfulness and hesitation in Rita's voice, so he assured her," I'm her boyfriend."

Rita couldn't help but sneer. 'Well, am I just supposed to take your word for it?'

"I'll take care of her. Rest easy."

Rita hung up the phone, without waiting for his response.

When Rita glanced at Emily's phone screen, she got the shock of a lifetime, as her eyes widened with intrigue.

'What did I just see? Jacob's name?!

Since when did Emily have a relationship with such a man?'

As Emily was too drunk to talk sensibly, Rita did not want to wake her up and ask her about it. Instead, she put the phone back into Emily's bag and ordered a cocktail, as she listened to her endless ranting.

Jacob, on the other hand, was drunk with rage, as he sat there starting at his phone wondering who had answered Emily's phone.

"Sam, go and find out where Emily is right now."

"Yes, sir."

...

Twenty minutes later, a luxurious Maybach discreetly pulled over in front of the bar.

When Jacob set foot in the bar, his eyes had caught sight of a woman, who was lying prone on the bar counter. She was absolutely plastered, but her red cheeks, looked lovely and attractive.

Jacob furrowed his brows and threw cold glances at the people who were looking at Emily from time to time. Eventually, they moved away or shifted their attention elsewhere.

Jacob gradually walked in her direction.

By then Rita had already seen Jacob. Flustered and nonplussed, she was fumbling to come up with an excuse as she saw him walking towards them. She tapped Emily on the shoulder to wake her up.

"What do you want to do?"

Rita immediately stood up and asked Jacob, like a hen protecting her baby from harm's way.

"I'm here to take her home."

"No, I can't let you do that."

Jacob's eyes became unbearably cold. They both stood in front of Emily, and even though she found Jacob's imposing manner a little intimidating, she did not surrender.

Jacob knew that this woman was Emily's friend, but she didn't seem to believe anything he was saying.

However, in the end, it didn't matter to Jacob whether she believed him or not.

A few seconds later, a frivolous noise broke the awkward silence between them.

"Hey Jacob! What brings you here? And you are also here..." David recognized Rita. His beautiful eyes squinted, as he asked," Rita?"

Rita sewed her lips tight as her facial expression changed at the sight of David.

Meanwhile, Emily suddenly raised her head, dizzy and confused, to look at the three people around her. Then she stood up and said," You..."

The three of them didn't know what to say, so they stared at Emily quietly.

Emily looked at Rita, and then Jacob. Then she turned to David, and said," Dear brother..."
