Chapter 7 When Jacob saw that I was truly angry , his previously arrogant expression suddenly dropped .
His eyes .
quickly filled with tears .
I suddenly realized how much his acting skills had improved over the years .
Jacob stepped forward , grabbed my sleeve , and , crying , said .
Emily , you know , I married Jessica for the publicity , it was all for my career .
Besides , because you didnt show up that day , the wedding didnt take place .
You cant be so angry .
Its not like the investment from J & H Group has been canceled .
Please come back with me , okay ? I know you didnt like the marriage your family arranged for you .
Lets go back and live together , okay ? Looking at Jacob , who was crying with snot and tears , I suddenly felt how unfamiliar this man was to me .
I began to question why I had ever fallen for such a hypocritical and pretentious man .
I realized Jacob came to find me today for a reason , but I never expected him to bluntly state his purpose like this .
I knew this had to be my fathers doing .
Unlike my mother , who always thought things through carefully , my father must have decided that since I was married to Mason , there was no need to continue investing in Jacob .
Thats why he withdrew the investment without informing me .
But it was fine ; otherwise , I would have had to bring it up with my father today .
Jacob saw that I wasnt speaking and tried to hug me .
I suddenly snapped back to my senses and took a large step back to avoid him .
Then I looked at him and smiled .
Jacob , how do you know I didnt like the marriage my family arranged for me ? My husband is great , kind , and thoughtful .
On our first day of marriage , he knew about my stomach issues .
And you ? We were together for eight years , and you only ever teased me for having a special ability where I wouldnt feel hungry even if I didnt eat all day .
When Jacob heard me mention our past , it seemed like he found some hope in my words .
His previously low mood suddenly became more lively , and he tearfully said .
Emily , I was just joking with Jessica .
Besides , I really do love you .
I originally planned to announce to the public that I was breaking up with Jessica after filming that drama .
Our relationship with her was just for show .
I didnt expect you to really care .
Looking at Jacobs nonsense , I felt helpless .
I took out my phone and pulled up the car dashcam footage from the night before I left .
I shoved the phone in front of Jacob and pressed play .
A series of intimate sounds came from the phone , and Jacob froze , staring at the footage .
It took him a long time to realize what was going on .

I didnt confront you about these things behre because I looed you I was willing to endure the branilation .
Fat the moment I let you .
I mopped wing you .
I will chose not to argue about in case I wanted to give us both a dignified ending .
I hope you understand , dont keep pestering the Lets go our separate ways from moon is that okay ? When Jacob heard this , he suddenly dropped to his knees in front of me , crying as he said Emily , please , just one last favor .
Dont cancel the investment for my next movie .
You know , this is my last chance to move up .
If I miss this opportunity .
Im really done … Sering Jacob like this , it was impossible not to feel a little moved , after all , we had been entangled for eight years .
But when I thought of the slap I gave myself in the mirror that day and all the harsh treatment I had endured from Jacob over the years , I still shook my head helplessly .
Its impossible , Jacob .
My family has already sacrificed a lot for you over these years .
The road ahead .
youll have to walk on your own .
I wish you good luck .
After saying that , I turned around and went back to my room , closing the door behind me .
Through the door , I could still hear Jacobs desperate cries , but this time , his cries could no longer bring my heart back .
After dosing the door and returning to the quiet room , I suddenly felt a bit awkward .
Those unbearable past events , those ugly scars in the relationship , had eventually been seen by Mason .
