Chapter 1431 Get Rid Of The Reporters

Jacob passed through the crowd in a rush as he walked towards Emily. "Don't be afraid. I'm here," he
uttered.

Emily, who was in deep pain and anxiety, felt like she was going to pass out. Only when she heard
Jacob's voice was she able to calm down. The bombardment of questions from the journalists sucked
the air out of her lungs.

Jacob placed his hand reassuringly on Emily's shoulders. Then, he took off his coat and covered her
with it.

After doing so, he helped her pass through the massive crowd of reporters.

But the reporters had no intention of letting them go that easily. They forced their way toward the
couple and swarmed them.

When Jacob noticed this, he couldn't suppress his rage any longer and looked at every reporter with a
murderous gaze. After that, no one dared to come closer or even ask questions. Not a single soul
dared to go up against Jacob. Everyone was seemingly scared of losing their lives.

When they finally got through the crowd, Sam's car was waiting right in front of them. After meeting
with the shareholders, Sam saw the news about Emily on the internet, so he rushed to her with the
thought that something bad might have happened.

"Mr. Gu, over here! Get in the car!" Sam shouted as he got out of the car and opened the door for
them.

When he realized that it was Sam who called out to him, Jacob quickly held Emily's hand and rushed
over to the car.

Once they were both inside, Sam quickly drove away.



It was obvious to Jacob that the arrival of the media was premeditated. It was almost impossible for the
reporters to arrive at Emily's room at the same time that Darren's men finished causing trouble. Darren
certainly must have tipped the media companies to make them send all of these people.

Meanwhile, Harlan arrived at Darren's office.

"Mr. Xu, everything went smoothly," he politely reported.

"That's good. They painted me in such a bad light. How can I let them go so easily? If I can't live my life
the way I want, no one else can!"

Darren replied, playing with the ring in his hand. With a vicious grin on his face, he uttered those words
without a single shred of empathy. Anyone who heard him would tremble in fear.

Back in Sam's car, Jacob suddenly received a call from Taylor.

"Hello, Mr. Gu. How's Emily doing right now? Is there any sign of a relapse?"

Taylor's tone showed her overwhelming anxiety. She was clearly worried about Emily.

After all, it hadn't been easy to cure Emily's depression. If Emily were to have a relapse now because
of this incident, it would be a great setback.

"It's fine, Taylor, don't worry about it. I'm with her now, and we're heading home. Rest assured, I'll be
with her until everything calms down,"

Jacob responded as he placed his arm around Emily's shoulders, as if he wanted to reassure her that
everything would be okay.

With his phone in the other hand, he continued to answer Taylor's questions and ease her worries.



"Okay, tell her to try and keep her composure. I'll be there soon." Taylor was still full of anxiousness
while she said this.

After all, Emily's condition had just improved. If there ever was a negative fluctuation on a massive
scale in her life, the possibilities of relapse were enormous.

Taylor finally said goodbye to Jacob, but not before reminding him to take good care of Emily.

After the call, Jacob placed the phone on his lap and massaged his temples. This stressful situation
was affecting him as well.

"Emily, what do you feel right now? Do you feel any uneasiness or discomfort?" Jacob asked out of
concern when he saw Emily's hands trembling.

"Jacob, I was framed. That man wanted to push me away, so I tried to stop him, but he fell instead as if
I had pushed him.

I just wanted to protect myself. How did things turn out this way? Also, I went to the surveillance room
to gather some proof, but the room had no electricity and nothing was recorded. I'm sure this whole
thing was set up and that someone is behind all of this!"

Emily looked at Jacob with pitiful eyes, which made his heart ache once again.

In fact, he was also incredibly suspicious of the incident, and he even had a suspect in mind.

However, as of that moment, they didn't have any evidence in hand. If they called out Darren and
wanted him to be held accountable, they would only cause the media to rally up more gossip.

"It'll all be fine. I'll find out the person responsible for this. The most important thing right now is for you
to relax. You've finally recovered after such a long time and your relationship with Bowen and Beryl is
becoming better than ever.



Something like this is not worth ruining our lives!" Jacob exclaimed.

He stared at Emily, who was so thin that she looked like a little bird in his arms.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Sam peeped through the rear view mirror and saw Jacob and Emily wrapped
around each other in the back seat. He knew then that, unfortunately, he had fallen into the awkward
position of being the third wheel once again.

Simultaneously, at MK Manor, Louis had just ended a phone call with Taylor. Hunk was also coming
home with Bowen and Beryl from school.

He loved the two children so much that he made it his responsibility to pick them up from school every
day.

"Dad, Emily is in trouble," Louis uttered with a serious expression on his face the moment he saw
Hunk.

"Really? I'm sure it must have been Darren's doing. He can't stand the thought of Jacob living a good
life!"

Hunk was already of old age, but he still had a strong physique. But at that moment, because of what
he just learned, the anger he felt made him cough relentlessly.

"Dad, try not to let it affect you too much. I'll find a way to make him pay. How dare he set up my sister
like this? That mischievous rat! I'll definitely teach him a lesson when we cross paths!"

Louis firmly responded. He still had a tense expression on his face. No one had expected Darren to
enact such a sinister scheme, especially since Emily had only recently recovered.



While the two of them were talking, Taylor finally arrived and rushed inside. After greeting Hunk, she
and Louis drove straight to Louis' house.

The car that Sam was driving had just arrived at the front gate of Tyrone Mansion. Unfortunately, the
reporters were already there and blocking the driveway. Sam's whole body froze.

"Mr. Gu, what should we do now?" He had no idea where he could possibly go, so he had to ask Jacob
for help.

Upon noticing the reporters at the door, Jacob pulled a long face. These reporters were so dedicated to
their jobs that one had to wonder how much the person behind this whole scheme had paid them. If it
was truly Darren, why couldn't he just leave them alone?

"Let's go to MK Manor first," Jacob replied after thinking about it.

Without a moment's hesitation, Sam started the car and drove onward to MK Manor.

As for the reporters outside Tyrone Mansion, they were bound to leave when they couldn't get a
response from Jacob, so Jacob didn't do anything about them.

Just a few seconds after the car left, Louis and Taylor arrived at Tyrone Mansion.

"Why are there so many reporters here?" Sitting in the passenger seat, Taylor looked out of the window
and felt her head ache from the sight of all the people waiting for Emily. She then worriedly said, "This
is definitely not good for Emily. What if all of this causes her to relapse again? It took her so much time
and effort just to be where she is now.

Even her two kids are willing to be close to her now. If these reporters cause her to have a relapse now,
everyone's efforts will be in vain."



"It seems that Darren is fully prepared! He won't stop until he sees Jacob completely obliterated." Louis
tightened his grip on the steering wheel in anger and his fingertips started turning pale.

"What should we do now?" Taylor asked, equally infuriated. She then added, "Oh, I can call Emily and
Jacob now. I'll ask whether they are at home or not."

Louis simply nodded in agreement.
