Chapter 142 Put Her to Death

"Believe me! I didn't mean to push you over. It's my body, but I can't control it. I'm trying to, but it's not
working," said Jacob, as he rubbed his nose against Emily's. He continued,"As you can see, there's
nothing I can do about it."

Speechless, Emily was astounded by the level of Jacob's mischief. What a fresh excuse!

Emily struggled hard to tear herself away from him, but the harder she tried, the closer he got to her.
She could even feel his body heat through her clothes.

"You..." The lustful look in Jacob's eyes caused her heartbeat to speed up dramatically.

"Don't move!" he exclaimed. In a low and hoarse voice, he continued,"If you don't stop moving, I have
no idea what my body will do next."

Intimidated, Emily was too scared to move, as she gulped a breath nervously. She gradually closed her
eyes, as Jacob's handsome face approached one step at a time.

Like a feather brushing over, she felt a soft kiss fall on her smooth forehead.

Soon it was followed with the sound of a click. When Emily opened her eyes, she was surrounded by
darkness. She realized that Jacob had turned off the lights.

Jacob released his loving grip on her tender waist and held her in his arms from behind.

How could anyone sleep like that? Discomforted, she wiggled her body, but she heard Jacob's deep
and breathy voice from behind,"Can't sleep?"

"Nope..." 'How can I sleep if you hold me so firmly?' Emily thought.



"Since you can't sleep, we can do some exercises in bed. Moreover, it will certainly help you get some
sleep." Jacob rested his strong chin on her head and giggled. His warm laugh emitted temptation and
desire.

Upon hearing his words, Emily instantly closed her eyes in shame. She forced herself to stop moving
and immediately pretended to fall asleep.

Jacob smiled with pleasure and held her more tightly. When he felt her calm and peaceful breath,
Jacob closed his eyes.

Over the years, Jacob had dated many women, but none of them affected his heart the same way that
Emily did. She didn't even have to do anything to arouse his passion. Her very presence was seductive
enough to drive him crazy.

Jacob's feelings were complicated and subtle. He wanted to hold her in his arms and make hot love to
her until she cried and begged for mercy. However, he was willing to wait for the day she would give
herself to him whole-heartedly.

Perhaps that's how people felt when they fell in love with someone.

...

The next afternoon, there was a barbecue party on the island. With a jolly mood, Emily was eager to
attended the barbecue at first, but when she approached her female colleagues, they simultaneously
stopped talking.

Needless to say, Emily was embarrassed by their behavior. "What were you all talking about just now?"
asked Emily.



One of her female co-worker, dressed in a blue skirt answered, with an awkward smile,"Nothing. Emily,
please have a sit."

The conversation grew awkward and stiff.

Seeing how everyone had their own groups, except her, Emily felt uncomfortable and isolation. To
make matters worse, there was nothing she could do to change that, as they talked with her with polite
alienation.

"Excuse me, I need to go to the toilet," she said. Feeling unwanted, Emily realized that they were
inclined to reject her, so she got up and left with a fake smile on her face.

Since everyone here didn't like her, she didn't have to join them anyway. Otherwise it would ruin their
mood and also hers.

Even when she was just walking away, she could hear them whispering behind her back.

"Jesus! What a phony! Just because she is with Mr. Jacob, now she thinks she is really something.
Let's see how long she lasts. Look how she flatters herself! I bet she just came here to show off..."

"..."

Broken-hearted, Emily took a deep breath and walked away hastily.

Emily had been immune to such harsh words as she had heard a lot of it, and yet for some reason she
couldn't help feeling sad and discarded.

Alas, perhaps it wasn't meant to be!

Under blue and sunlit skies, the scenic attraction on the island was wondrous to behold. The
surrounding green trees teemed with life to the chorus of birdsong, as the flowers bloomed with great



vibrance and color.

At first, Emily decided to go for a walk around the area to cure her depression, but she didn't realize
that she had accidentally walked into a jungle, not too far away from the villa.

There was a river in Iceland that flowed towards the sea.

Soon, Emily was sitting on a lawn beside the river. After resting her legs for a while, she walked slowly
to the river and washed her hands. The water was so clear that she could see her own reflection on it
when she was washing her hands.

After a while, Emily noticed that someone was quietly approaching her from behind. One step at a
time...

By the time she noticed the reflection of another person on the water, it was too late. She felt someone
push her into the river from the back.

"Help! Help..." she screamed. Emily didn't know how to swim, but her instinct to survive taught her to
keep herself afloat on the water. She struggled, and before long she managed to reach the shore.

Before she could look up, she was hit on the head with a heavy stone!

Immediately, Emily was knocked out of consciousness. The last thing she remembered seeing was a
shade of bright purple.

...

As soon as Jacob was done running errands, he came to find Emily. He looked around the festive
barbecue party, but he could not find Emily. His mood gradually turned sour.



Most of the female employees of the Gu Consortium looked at him eagerly, expecting him to come and
sit next to them.

Soon, Jacob went straight to where Emily was last seen at the party. When Jacob reached the table of
the female employees, everyone's eyes lit up. Some of them even started to secretly fix their make-up.

"Mr. Jacob, would you like some barbecue? Would you like to try some? The food is really good." She
was the one who had said all the mean things about Emily just a while ago. However, in Jacob's
presence, she put on a gentle facade to mask her unkindness. She even courteously started carving up
an Australian lobster for Jacob.

Jacob, however, didn't even look at her as he asked,"Where is Emily?"

Sheila's fake smile froze in an instant. "We haven't seen Miss Emily," she replied.

"She told me that she was coming here to attend the barbecue. And I remember this is where she was
sitting." Having run out of patience, Jacob started to speak faster, subconsciously,"So why isn't she
here now? Where did she go?"

Sheila's face became stiff as she answered,"... She left after sitting here for a while. We have no idea
where she went..."

Jacob turned around with a long face and called Sam on his phone at once "Send people to look for
Emily. Search the whole island! Now!" he demanded.

"Eh-hem..." When Emily came to her senses, the first thing she felt was the coldness around her. Her
limbs were stiff and she could not move, and the wound on her head was throbbing with pain.

Emily mustered all her strength, and forced herself to sit up. When she looked around, she realized that
she floated down the river after she lost consciousness. Fortunately, she was carried to the river bank



instead of the sea.

The last thing she remembered was washing her hands by the river, and then suddenly getting pushed
from the back. And when she struggled to get ashore, someone hit her on the head with a heavy stone.

The shade of bright purple she saw could be a skirt. What followed next, was completely blank to her.
Who would do such thing to her? Who would want her dead?

Emily shook her head. She had no time to think about those questions. The first thing she needed to do
was to get herself out of there. Sadly, she didn't have her cellphone with her and she couldn't even tell
where she was at that moment...

Soon the twilight faded to blackness, and Emily finally staggered to her feet after resting for a while.
She was surrounded by the jungle as she followed her instincts to find her path.

When she heard an indistinct noise coming from ahead, Emily's eyes finally lit up with hope.

"Is anybody there? I need some help. Please!"

Wishfully, she was hoping to hear a person's voice, but instead, she heard the roaring of a bear.
