A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 1432 Back To MK Manor

"Hey Emily, I'm currently here at the gate of the Tyrone Mansion with Louis. The house is surrounded by journalists, so I can't come to the door. Are you at home right now?" Taylor felt relieved that she was finally able to get a hold of Emily. The fact that Emily had answered the phone was a great indicator that she wasn't falling back into depression. Or at least, not yet.

"Oh, Jacob and I are currently on the way to MK Manor. By the way, Dr. Tang, whatever they're saying on the internet, none of it is true. I was only trying to stop that man from pushing me away! I had no intention of pushing him down."

Emily choked up when she uttered the words with tears continuously pouring down from her eyes. Being seen as a bad person by everyone was hard for her to deal with, because she had done nothing wrong.

"It's okay. Don't worry about it. I trust you completely. Try not to cry anymore. I'll be with you shortly," Taylor patiently comforted Emily.

She knew well that Emily wouldn't do such things.

When Emily heard what she said, she simply nodded and hummed in response before hanging up.

"They're on their way to MK Manor. Let's go there now!" Taylor hastily exclaimed to Louis as soon as she hung up the phone.

Without further delay, Louis started the car and headed back to the road which they had come from.

After a while of driving, they were unfortunately caught in a traffic jam along the bridge.

While they were waiting for the cars to move along, feelings of unrest overwhelmed Louis. He was very worried about Emily. Moreover, the crazy amount of traffic was nearly driving him insane. Even if Louis

was a very calm person, the troubles he was going through at that moment slowly ate his patience away.

When Taylor noticed Louis's tense face, she began to worry about him. She then said, "Try not to think about it too much. The two of them will be just fine there. No reporter would dare to break into MK Manor." Then, she placed her hand on top of Louis's hand in an attempt to try and calm him down.

Taylor knew how much love Louis had for his sister. Every time Emily's depression got worse, he would have a hard time sleeping because he worried so much about her.

What was worse, all of the public opinions of Emily at this point were completely one-sided. Everyone saw her in a bad light. How could Louis not worry, given the circumstances?

He was a little stunned when Taylor placed her hand on his.

But just as he was about to say something, the traffic suddenly moved forward.

Louis, who had been feeling the stress caused by the traffic, suddenly had no intention of driving the car ahead. If he could stop time at any point as he wished, he would choose to do so at this moment. The calm and gentle feeling that Taylor gave him was incredible.

'But, nonsense! Now is not the time to think about my personal love affairs. My sister is in great pain!' Louis thought to himself. He realized how selfish he must be to think of things like this at a time when his beloved sister was in trouble.

He smacked his head with one of his hands to get his mind to think properly. After a few seconds, he started the car and began driving.

Taylor had no idea what was going on inside his head. She was puzzled, but chose to remain silent. She then decided to think of what she could possibly do to help Emily's current situation.

It was rather easy to conclude that Emily had been set up by someone with ulterior motives.

If the person behind it was Darren, had he done it with the intention of killing her?

Darren knew that Emily was going through depression. If he was really that vicious to take advantage of her condition, then there was no need for Louis and Jacob to show any resemblance of mercy.

However, destroying Darren's company was not a simple task. By herself, Taylor couldn't think of anything much in exacting revenge against Darren, so she thought that she should wait until she could discuss it in detail with Jacob when they arrived at MK Manor.

When Jacob and Emily finally arrived at MK Manor, Jacob asked Sam to go back to the company first. "Do your best to take care of the company for now. I may not come back today since I have to deal with this matter first."

"Okay, Mr. Gu. I'll do my best," Sam responded while nodding. The fact that Jacob trusted him so much made him feel greatly appreciated. The warm feeling he felt in his heart brought upon a great sense of duty. Letting Jacob down was not an option.

Sam idly stood there while Jacob helped Emily walk towards the house. Once he saw both of them entering the mansion, he got into the car and drove to the company by himself.

"Yvonne, my dear, are you okay?"

Hunk worriedly asked. He was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, greatly disturbed by everything that was happening. Witnessing his daughter in such a miserably weakened state made him feel like he was being stabbed in the heart.

"Father, Emily is feeling a little light-headed. I'll take her inside for now so that she can rest." At that time, Jacob felt extremely burdened. The fact that he couldn't even protect his own wife made him feel

dejected, especially when he had vowed not to let anything bad happen to her again. There was no one more disappointed with him than himself.

Emily forced herself to smile and said to Hunk, "Father, I just need to rest for a while. I'll be fine."

Although Hunk felt sorry for Emily at that moment, he couldn't do anything about it. He simply nodded and gently patted Emily on her shoulder. "Sure, don't worry about it. My dear daughter, I know you wouldn't do anything like what those journalists are saying."

Jacob aided Emily upstairs and into the room. He told her to try to not think about what had happened too much so that she could sleep well.

It was only when Emily had fallen asleep that Jacob could allow himself to reveal the sadness he felt.

He held Emily's hand and looked at her sleeping face. He felt so horrible that he couldn't help but weep.

How could he have let this happen to her when he had sworn not to? Where had he gone wrong? What could he have done to prevent this?

He not only felt sorry for Emily, but also for Hunk and Louis, who had both placed their trust in him.

They had allowed him to marry Emily, even though they had had their doubts. They had had the utmost belief that he would take good care of her. And now, she was so close to falling into depression once again.

Although the people close to Emily knew that she wouldn't ever do such a thing, the public didn't. The gossip that surrounded her and the innate nature of people to believe the media caused the public to think twice about her true personality. If Jacob didn't fix this problem soon, Emily's reputation would definitely shatter into pieces.

'No, I absolutely cannot let this happen!' Jacob firmly thought to himself.

He quietly stood up and tucked Emily in. Then, he bent over and kissed her on the forehead. At last, he walked out of the room and gently closed the door.

The moment Jacob went downstairs, Bowen and Beryl ran up to him. They had just finished their homework and were excited to see their father. They both joyfully exclaimed, "Dad!"

When Jacob saw both of their happy faces, he couldn't help but smile himself. Whatever happened after this point, he would make sure that his children and his wife wouldn't be dragged into it.

"I just saw something on the internet! Who was that bad man? He was so rude! You, Beryl, and I should catch this evil man!"

Bowen's bubbly childishness made the adults burst into laughter. It was quite clear that Bowen took after Jacob. They had the same idea in mind. Jacob then told the children, "Bowen, take Beryl and play on the swing for a while. The adults here need to think of a way to make that bad guy pay for ruining mom's day."

Once they left, Jacob stood up with a serious expression on his face.

"Louis, I'm sure Darren is behind all of this. He must have been so dissatisfied with what we did before that he played such a despicable trick."

Jacob explained his thoughts after analyzing everything that had happened so far.

Louis agreed with him and responded, "I think you're right. I saw his assistant, Harlan, at the gate of your house. I'm sure he was there because he wanted to see how the incident was affecting Emily."

While they were discussing, they suddenly heard a harsh cry come from Emily's room.

Their hearts sank. Everyone present ran upstairs as fast as they could and found Emily curled up and sobbing in her bed. Jacob hurried over and hugged her tightly. "It's all right, Emily. It's all right."

"Jacob, I... I just had a nightmare!" At that moment, Emily looked weaker than ever. Her forehead was full of cold sweat and there was so much fear in her eyes.

"It's okay. It's all over. I promise you that I will find out the truth and prove your innocence,"

Jacob replied encouragingly while stroking Emily's head in an attempt to comfort her. His mind was racing about what he should do next.
