Chapter 80 Meet In A Narrow Road
'Jacob is just a bastard. Why was he given such a high position?'
Jack sneered in his heart. He intended to put Jacob under his feet one day!
After the meeting, Jack returned to his office, and soon a secretary came in to report that there was a woman outside waiting for
him, who claimed to be his girlfriend.
Jack's first thought was Emily, but then he remembered that their relationship had already been demolished, and he would never
accept such a promiscuous woman. His eyes darkened with negative thoughts.
"Let her come in."
However, the woman who came to see him was Rose. Lately, she had been very clingy and dependent, which even made him
consider a change in partner.
Jack considered all women to be tools for sex and childbirth. When he liked them, he would spoil them, and when he didn't, he'd
find himself another one.
Only one person was the exception... Emily!
Why was he still thinking of that bitch? Damn it!
Before long, Rose entered Jack's office. In a soft voice she announced," Jack, I am here."
"Okay."
Jack pushed the papers on the table aside and looked up at her. "Isn't my money enough? Next time please just call me over the
phone if you need anything. Don't always come here. It looks bad on me."
Rose hadn't said anything yet. He stopped and added another sentence," And, be clear about your identity. Not everyone can be
my girlfriend."
Even if he didn't want Emily to be his girlfriend anymore, the position of being Jack's girlfriend was not something that anyone
could take easily.
Rose's little face suddenly turned pale. With tears welling up her eyes, she seemed to be very aggrieved. "Jack, I know. I know
my place and I will never cause you any trouble..."
In truth, since she was pregnant, she had made up her mind to be with Jack. She hoped to get married to him one day because
she was carrying his child... However, she wasn't aware that Jack was still thinking about that bitch, Emily!
She believed that with her wisdom and her child, she could be a part of Jack's family one day!
When Jack found another person boring, whatever they would say or do would just annoy and irritate him.
Generally, Rose's loving disposition would make Jack feel soft, but lately, it made him feel impatient. With a cold expression,
Jack said to her," It would be good for the both of us if you can really understand what I mean. Is there anything else?"
Rose secretly gritted her teeth, but she replied in a cautious tone," Jack, I am going to have the antenatal examination today.
Can you accompany me?"
Jack flipped through the file with an absent-minded expression. "Can't you go by yourself?"
"I......
The other pregnant women will be accompanied by their children's father..."
Rose's voice went down. "Don't you want to see your child?"
Jack frowned. In truth, he was not interested in this child, but if he didn't go with Rose, she would incessantly pester him...
"When?"
Suddenly, Rose's eyes lit up. With excitement in her voice, she said," This afternoon. Thank you, Jack. You are the best."
In the afternoon, at the maternity hospital.
Emily never thought that only a few days after her return, Rita would have an appointment with her in this place - the best
maternity hospital in the Jingshi City.
Emily was there to accompany her pregnant friend. The name of the child's father was yet to be known.
Since Rita was not willing to tell her more about the child and its father, Emily did not insist. It was just a little embarrassing
thinking about the evening when she asked Rita to drink with her a few days ago. "We are not sure if the child will be affected by
the alcohol. You should do a test first."
Rita smiled back at her; she didn't seem to care. "It doesn't matter. I came here to get rid of it."
Shocked by what Rita had said, Emily's eyes widened with concern. "Get...get rid of it?"
"Yes."
"Does the child's father know?"
Emily asked carefully, but she noticed how dark Rita's face was when she mentioned it.
She smiled coldly and said," He doesn't need to know about it."
"Then you are really sure about this?" Emily could not possible fathom what complicated emotions Rita was dealing with, but she
decided not to interfere with her friend's choice.
"I have already made up my mind."
When Rita looked back at her, she looked a little relaxed. "Emily, I don't have any relatives in China. You are my only friend. Will
you sign your name on the operation list, please? I really can't bring this child to the world."
Emily hesitated, but she eventually agreed.
After seeing the doctor and doing some tests with Rita, Emily waited for the results outside. At first, Rita wanted to have an
abortion, but because her physical condition was not well enough, she could only make an appointment for another time.
After Rita came out of the clinic, she looked at Emily, who was carefully reading the report, and noticed the troubled expression
on Emily's face. "Emily, thank you so much for what you have done today."
"Such words are not necessary between good friends like us."
Emily handed the report to her, and said sincerely," As long as you think it over, no matter what you decide, I will support you."
Emily's support made Rita feel warm inside, as if someone had blown hot steam into her heart. She reached out to hold Emily's
hand, and nodded," Okay, I will."
They walked out hand in hand, happily.
"Emily, do you know Jacob?"
Thinking about what happened that night, Rita asked casually.
Emily felt like there was no need to hide anything from her, so she nodded honestly. "Well, yes. He is my boss."
"But he said he is your boyfriend."
Emily almost chocked by her own saliva, as she subconsciously retorted," How could it be possible!"
Rita teased her," But that night, I saw that you taking the initiative to kiss him. It was very intimate..."
Therefore, she assumed that what Jacob said was true. After all, it was hard to deny that the chemistry between the two of them
was absolutely off the charts.
Otherwise, even though David was there, Rita would not have allowed Jacob to take Emily away.
Embarrassed, Emily's face turned as red as an apple. With disbelief in her voice, she asked," I, I... I kissed him?"
"Well, that was definitely true."
"God, I am so shameless!"
Rita was amused by her words as she said," Not really. I can understand that it is difficult for a girl, drunk with love, to control
herself in front of her boyfriend."
"Rita, that is not the case!"
"I am not listening to you. I can't hear a thing."
"......"
Emily was frustrated and helpless. She failed to convince Rita!
Meanwhile, Jack was waiting for Rose outside the clinic. Sitting alone, casually, on the common bench, there was an impatient
expression on his handsome face. However, when he saw Emily coming from another direction, his face suddenly changed.
His set his sights on her, watching her chatting with another woman, as his emotions fluctuated by the second.
"Emily!"
Emily was shocked by this sudden and familiar voice. When she turned around, she saw a gloomy Jack standing outside the
clinic by himself. She assumed he was waiting for Rose.
It was like meeting an enemy on a narrow road.
