SWNOVELS Chapter 87 Call Her Miss Emily
"The child's father and mother living together— are you saying that it is not appropriate?"
Jacob was very meticulous and persistent in brainwashing the little rabbit before him. "Besides, if Jack finds out that you are with
me, it's going to drive him off the walls. Wouldn't you want to see that?"
Emily looked at him for a few seconds and slowly nodded,"Yes, but I want to make him more than just mad."
Jacob looked at her serious appearance, smiled deeply and praised,"Well, yes. That's my girl."
Initially, Jacob thought that Emily would just let it go without making Jack pay the price. It seemed that he was wrong.
When they entered the house, all housekeepers and servants were already there waiting for them. They stood up in two rows
and greeted them respectfully.
"Good evening. Sir, young lady."
Jacob's brows furrowed and his smile turned upside down. He seemed to be a little dissatisfied with their greeting. Everyone
suddenly thought that they must have made some mistakes. They held their breath and waited anxiously.
"In the future, just call her Miss Emily."
Everyone bowed their heads in agreement. Later on, they looked at Emily with more respect.
Although the title did not make a big difference, but "Miss Emily" was obviously much more formal than "young lady", which
showed that Emily wasn't just one of his dates who would stay here for a couple of nights, but she would somehow have a say in
this house. That was Jacob's way of telling them that this lady was not an outsider.
They greeted her in unison, once again,"Good evening, Miss Emily!"
Emily didn't understand the complexity of these titles. Seeing everyone greeting her again, made her feel a bit strange, as she
politely greeted them back again.
The couple walked in together. Zola, who was hiding in the crowd, looked at Emily with great envy, but no one noticed her.
When they got upstairs, Emily looked at the room with amazement, as it was exactly the same as her apartment room. Shocked
and impressed, she said,"This... how did you do this?"
Although, the size of the area was several times bigger, the furniture and the things were all the same, and even some extra
details that she wasn't aware of were also preserved.
"Where there's a will, there's a way."
"Yes, It took Mr. Jacob a lot of effort just to do it for you. Do you like it, Miss Emily?"
Zola had already been standing behind them secretly. She was smiling gently, and it looked very pleasing. The fury and jealousy
she had when she was downstairs had already disappeared without a trace.
Jacob turned around and looked back at Zola. She was excited when Jacob did it. She tried to suppress the joy in her heart and
covered her excitment with an even more splendid smile.
"Zola, don't come upstairs unless you are told to."
This sentence was like a cold water washing all the enthusiasm and expectations out of Zola. Embarrassed, she mumbled,"I, I
am sorry sir. Please forgive me. I am just so glad to meet Miss Emily..."
Her voice, expressed the grievance of being misunderstood, but Jacob was apathetic as he turned around and casually
said,"Well then, you can go downstairs now."
"... Yes."
Zola left reluctantly, but she did not dare to disobey a direct order from Jacob. She quickly turned around and headed down the
stairs, while in her heart, secretly scheming devious plans.
Jacob had no intentions of telling Emily what he had done for her, as he had no expectations of getting something in return.
Everything he had done for her, was voluntary, because he loved her, nothing more.
However, there was a strange feeling lingering in Emily's heart. She noticed that the maid was always deliberately coming over
to show her presence...
"Well, do you like it?"
Jacob's voice pulled Emily's thoughts back, and she nodded immediately. "I like it very much."
Jacob lifted her chin gently with one finger and stared at her little face for a few seconds and then asked,"Was that response
perfunctory?"
"No..."
Emily had not had time to explain, as she was dragged by Jacob to another bedroom.
Together, they opened the door to a pink room.
White and pink painted walls, a pink princess bed, light pink drapes and curtains, milky white rugs, and several tiny, cute dolls...
It was the perfect room for a little princess.
"I think you will like this one," said Jacob, with a serious tone.
"It's too pink..."
Emily shook her head with disapproval and continued,"I am not a little girl."
"Okay. We'll save this room for the baby,"
Jacob chuckled, and then took her to give her the tour of the villa.
There were many rooms in the villa and the style of the decoration varied from rooms to rooms. There were simple European
style, warm pastoral style, wooden style, etc.
Emily looked through so many rooms that she felt exhausted. The man finally let her go. She chose the first room - the same
bedroom as the one in her apartment.
Jacob was a little disappointed by Emily's reaction to the 'princess room', that he had decorated very elaborately for her. "That
room is best suited for you,"
he said, thinking of a little bunny surrounded with everything pink and girly, and her droopy eyes and lazy yawns every morning
she woke up in the pink princess bed. It was so... CUTE.
Emily was relaxing on the sofa, when she heard him say that, so she glanced back at him and replied,"Jacob, I think that
bedroom is best suited for you, not me. If you like it, just stay there. Don't worry, I won't laugh at you..."
Emily couldn't finish her words, as a big hand came out of nowhere and covered her entire face, and then pinched her cheek
gently.
"I'll think about it, if you share that room with me."
"Then you should not think about it, hahaha."
Emily teased him. Judging by the well-arranged rooms, she could tell that Jacob was really serious about it, and he sincerely
wanted her to move in...
Anyway, it would be better to wait until the child was born and then talk about what they should do in the future. For now, they
could just let it go.
Emily was official a member of Jacob's household. After having dinner together, she went out for a walk, but she came back
soon as it was getting dark.
Later that night, both of them went to their own rooms.
After washing up and brushing her teeth, she reviewed her own design plans. Emily, however, went to bed early, thinking of the
child in her womb.
Due to the familiarity of the room, she quickly fell asleep, without discomfort, until her phone woke her up.
She picked up the phone, still half asleep,"Hello..."
"Emily, are you at home now? Something bad happened to me tonight. Can I stay your place?"
"Okay, all right." Emily replied subconsciously, but then she realized,"No, I am not home now. I have just moved out!"
"Where are you now? I need to see you. I really have no place else to go."
"I......" Emily was embarrassed to say that she had moved to Jacob's mansion, but she was more concerned about her good
friend's well-being,"What happened? I'm coming to pick you up, okay? Where are you now?"
"It's complicated. I will tell you later when we meet."
Emily wrote down the address Rita had given her. She hung up the phone and ran to the door.
To her surprise, as soon as she opened the door, she saw a man in pyjamas standing in front of her door, but by then it was
already too late. Emily could not stop herself as she ran into him.
Jacob took this chance and held her in his arms. Well, he finally caught the little rabbit. She was tender and warm, making him
never want to let her go.
"Jacob?" Emily was still half asleep. She pushed him away and asked,"Why are you standing at my door?"
