SPOILED GIRL, VOLUME 2 - Season 11 Episode 52

Dina didn’t finish her sentence, but fell silent instead.

Sometimes, it was also a negotiation tactic to hint at the other party to follow up with their thoughts.

Maybe the other side would offer more than she had expected to receive.

“Well, you’ll be informed of her being blacklisted in two days,”

They were both ardent negotiators, who only cared about what they could get out of a deal. Dina knew exactly what must be on Jacob’s mind.

Jacob smiled coldly and raised his eyebrows enigmatically. He could seal this deal, right here over the phone, without being noticed by either Darren or Bill.

“Mr. Gu, you are the real deal!”

Dina exclaimed, surprised that Jacob would promise to meet her demands so quickly, and she couldn’t help but wonder whether Jacob still cared about Emily.

Could it be that Darren had been correct in his deductions all along? Did Jacob still love Emily?

So what about Michelle then?

Of course, Dina had nothing to do with any of them. As long as she could get ahead of Emily and maintain her own status in the entertainment industry, Dina reasoned that they could do whatever they liked.

“Thank you, but let’s get to the point, Miss Li. Tell me what you know first,” Jacob said lightly but with irrefutable firmness. “After all, I have to assess whether your information is worth it.”

“Of course, I bet you haven’t found out who was behind what happened to Miss Bai, right?”

Dina was supremely confident that Jacob hadn’t discovered the truth yet. Darren was a meticulously evil person. Even someone as careful as Jacob couldn’t have found out his plans so quickly.

“Darren was the one behind everything. He did it to test your feelings regarding Emily!”

The first sentence was true, and the second one Dina had added based on her instincts. After all, she also wanted to know whether Jacob had really forgotten about Emily.

However, Jacob didn’t seem surprised after hearing Dina’s words. She was about to ask if he hadn’t heard her clearly, but Jacob opened his mouth first and said in a deep voice, “I know.”

“You already know?”

Dina frowned in disbelief and her voice rose an octave. She didn’t understand how Jacob could possibly know this already.

She knew about the wicked plot because she had overheard Darren’s conversations, but Jacob seemed to have known it for a long time too.

“Oh, it’s fine. Miss Li, your news is very valuable. I’m quite satisfied, and I hope we can work together again,”

Jacob said with a smile on his face, ignoring Dina’s question.

Since Dina was happy to betray Darren, even though her news was not of great value, still, the enemy of your enemy could be your ally.

“Well, since you’re so determined, Mr. Gu, I don’t know what else to say. It’s just that Bill and Darren are pretty close. You should pay attention.” Seeing that Jacob didn’t want to continue their conversation, Dina just shut her mouth.

Her goal had been achieved. She could maintain her status in the entertainment industry. She didn’t care about anything else.

“All right,”

Jacob replied with a smile, but his eyes were cold and piercing. He hung up the phone immediately after Dina had barely finished speaking.

Darren…

What a bastard…

Watching the screen of his mobile phone gradually darken, Jacob walked back to the room and carefully lay down beside Emily, holding her tightly in his arms.

They slept for several hours until the night was spent.

The next day, in the bedroom on the second floor

The woman on the bed yawned and slowly opened her eyes with trembling eyelashes. She raised her hands to block the dazzling sunlight. Her mind was a little fuzzy.

‘Where am I?’ she thought in confusion. She blinked in the bright sunlight.

Suddenly, she became aware that her head was throbbing, and she was aching all over.

“Jac… Jacob.”

After coming to her senses, Emily recalled what had happened between her and Jacob last night.

They had had sex.

She couldn’t help feeling embarrassed and flustered. A dull red flush suffused her face. She lifted the quilt and looked down at her own, naked body.

Every inch of her body was marked with traces of Jacob’s touch; her pale skin was red, swollen, and striking.

Even a slight movement made her feel a numb pain in her body.

She raised her hand and familiarly rubbed the beveled corner of the bedside table. After feeling embarrassed for a few seconds, Emily now choked on a much more complicated feeling.

This was the bedroom that she and Jacob had used to share.

She was intimately familiar with it. After all, she had just been kicked out of the house a few weeks ago, and they had shared so many of their memories here.
Emily hadn’t expected to come back here in such a short time and in such a manner.

‘How ironic!’ she thought. Then, she sat up and touched the bright red kisses of his passion on her arms.

What Jacob had said had come true.

“The only way you can stay here is through sex.”

So was it just sex he had wanted?

But somehow, lying in the bed of the man whom she loved the most, she could not find the slightest warmth in her heart. Instead, she only felt a cold sorrow.

This kind of sex, a savage and emotionless carnal rush, was meaningless to her, except for plunging a knife into her heart again and again.

But…

Emily raised her head and arched her eyebrows. Her black eyes were watery and full of confusion.

What had happened after the previous night?

She could only remember that she had been drugged by Darren and then taken to Bill’s bed. Then, the drugs in her body had started to work, and she had lost consciousness. The last thing she’d seen was Bill trying to force himself on her.

Last night, she had lost all hope and thought she was done for, but she had ended up waking up this morning in Jacob’s bed.

She had the impression that Jacob was the one who had engaged in sex with her last night. That familiar feeling in her loins could not be mistaken!

“Jacob?”

Emily murmured, biting her lips. There was a long silence, and her heart became heavier with each passing second.

She searched the room but could not find Jacob. And yet, the warmth on the bed sheets told her that Jacob had been here JUST a minute ago.

Was it all a lie, and he hadn’t forgotten about her?

Didn’t he hate her, then?

Why else would he still want her? Could it be…

But after she searched for him several times, Emily finally determined that Jacob had left.

“All right…” she sighed with resignation. It seemed that she had been mistaken. Jacob really didn’t care about her at all.

Disappointed, she lowered her head in frustration. As she slipped from the bed, she meant to get dressed, but what she saw next was even more embarrassing!
Her dress had been torn to pieces and thrown on the ground.

Emily had taken all her belongings away when she had left. There were no clothes in the house for her to wear at all!

After a moment of hesitation, she finally grabbed one of Jacob’s shirts, put it on and staggered out of the room.

It seemed that Jacob was not around at the moment, so she could go downstairs to find some water to drink, and she didn’t need to worry about anybody seeing her state of undress.

However…….
