Chapter 156 Wish You and Mr. Jacob Happiness


    His grandfather''s words hit Jack''s heart like a thousand nails, as his eyes went red with rage and he


    clenched his fists hard with frustration. "So let me get this straight. You''re basically taking his side. I''m


    your grandson, and we are rted by blood. Jacob was just someone you adopted; he''s just a


    bastard..."


    "Pah!" Jack was interrupted by a tight p across his face that took the words right out of his mouth.


    The old man''s eyes were cold and expressionless. Just the way he carried himself, indicated that he


    was still capable of being ruthless even in his old age. "If I ever hear you talking like that again, you will


    regret it," his cold and forbidding voice, expressed his anger adequately.


    Frustrated, Jack was not happy with his grandfather''s treatment at all. ''Why! Why does Jacob always


    have dominance over me?'' Jack thought. Jacob was merely an orphan adopted by the Gu Family.


    Muddled and furious, Jack was not in the right state of mind to form proper thoughts, let alone


    comprehend his grandfather''s motives.


    "If you want something, you should go out and take it with your own hands. Crying around like a loser


    is not going to do you any good. Crap!" said Jack''s grandfather.


    Jack pressed his lips tightly. He would be a fool to deny that Jacob was the man pulling all the strings.


    Jack gritted his teeth so hard, and the headache was starting to be unbearable. The seeds of


    resentment that were nted a while back had finally sprouted into full grown hatred in his heart.


    "Since you are here, you should take her with you," said old Mr. Gu, as he coughed lightly and


    signalled the butler with his eyes.


    Soon, the butler appeared before them with her.


    "Rose!" eximed Jack, as he watched her walk towards him. His nce swept over her swollen


    stomach. With a disappointed expression on his face, he said,"You didn''t get an abortion! How dare


    you..."


    "I''m sorry, Jack! I couldn''t. I couldn''t give it up. After all, it''s our baby..." Rose muttered carefully. She


    looked very gaunt.


    "We will talk about thister. Get out of here!" he said. Jack grabbed her hand and dragged Rose out of


    there forcibly. He didn''t take her feelings or the baby''s well-being into consideration as he yanked her


    out of the door.


    When they left the Gu Mansion, the butler, walked up to Mr. Gu and slowly said,"Sir, do you think... it


    will turn out all right if we just let it be?"


    Mr. Gu''s face darkened with bitterness as he said,"Let''s wait and see for a while longer."


    In other words, he wasn''t nning on doing anything about it.


    Jack pushed Rose into his car. Having been roughed up and pushed around, Rose cried out helplessly,


    out of concern,"Honey, take it easy..."


    "Don''t call me honey. You repulse me!" replied Jack.


    Rose immediately corrected herself and said,"Mr. Jack, my stomach pain is killing me. Will you please


    take me to the hospital?"


    "Stomach pain?" Jack burst out mockingly. Jack quickly sat on the driver''s seat and smiled back at her


    with malice in his eyes. He continued,"That''s good. Perhaps you will lose the baby."


    Nonplussed, Rose shut her mouth and did not dare to utter another word. She just put her arms around


    her stomach defensively. It was clear to her that nobody wanted her child toe to the world, but it


    was the only trump card she had left, so she made sure to hold on to it tightly.


    Fortunately, the words of Jack''s grandfather gave her soul the sce and assurance she needed to


    bear Jack''s child.


    Exasperated, Jack realized he waspletely out of his depth. He knew exactly what Jacob intend to


    aplish by getting him trapped in with Rose, but he couldn''t let Jacob have his way.


    Under the secret instruction of Jacob, the news of Jack and Rose''s marriage soon spread across


    Jingshi City and the headlines of every major media outlet in the country.


    The female colleagues, who once worked together with Rose and often ttered her, were filled with


    jealousy after they heard the news.


    "She screwed around with her friend''s boyfriend, and now she''s getting married to him. How fucking


    unbelievable! This is so crazy!"


    "Maybe it''s because she is so good in bed. Who the hell knows how many guys she''s had practise


    with?"


    "I bet that their marriage won''tst more than a week. Rose? How could she evenpare with


    Emily?"


    "Yeah! Emily is with Jacob now. Rose can''t hold a candle to Emily... I wonder if Jacob is going to marry


    Emily. Because if Emily did get married to Jacob, her ex-boyfriend would have to call her ''aunt'',


    wouldn''t he? So would Rose! Ha ha ha ha..."


    "..."


    Some small media outlets found a new way to catch the public''s attention by printing the personal


    information of Jack and Rose. Jack was the eldest grandson of the Gu Family, but his bride-to-be was


    just an unknown jewelry designer. After a deep investigation, they also found that Rose slept with Jack,


    her best friend''s boyfriend, and caused them to break up, as a consequence. And now this very woman


    was to be his bride-to-be. Moreover, she has been used of giarizing people''s work and


    countless other heinous things...


    Once again, Rose became the prime target of everyone''s hatred. At one point, she became the topic of


    conversation for every citizen in the country. Regardless of ludicrous farce the small time media outlets


    were putting out, no one could do anything to shut them down. It was quite obvious that someone


    powerful was backing them. Spreading such news helped them make a small fortune.


    At the Gu Consortium.


    "Have you heard the news? The reason why Mr. Jack is marrying this girl is that she is pregnant. No


    wonder! Mr. Jack is way out of her league. Now it all makes sense, or else why would Mr. Jack marry


    just a disreputable woman? I bet it''s all because of this baby. Why else would he marry her anyway?"


    "Oh, my! You don''t know?" One of the female employees gave a cryptic look and said,"Miss Emily was


    Mr. Jack''s girlfriend before, and this woman was her best friend. But..."


    Only a few words was enough to paint a vivid and dramatic story in their minds.


    "What are you talking about?" asked Emily. She saw the employees whispering to each other from far


    away, so she went over to them and asked out of curiosity.


    They all turned their heads at the same time and looked at her with guilt-ridden eyes. Confused, Emily


    couldn''t make out what was going on.


    When she was about to ask again, one of them suddenly spoke out confidently,"Everyone had made


    the mistake of falling in love with the wrong person in their youth. It''s not a big deal. It''s important to


    move on and carry on with life."

    "Yeah! Sooner orter, you will end up with the person who will stand by you forever." The longer they


    got along with Emily, the more they realized that she was a gentle and kinddy. Gradually, they had


    the courage to talk freely with her like this.


    "That''s true." They all made a cheerful gesture and said,"Miss Emily, we wish you and Mr. Jacob all the


    happiness in the world."


    Emily,"Huh? ? ?"


    Muddled, Emily was at a loss of words. What the hell was happening? What were they talking about?


    Emily did not find the answers to her questions, until she went to see Jacob. When she got to his office,


    she saw the news of Jack and Rose''s wedding on the headlines of a newspaper on Jacob''s desk.


    "They are going to get married?" she asked. Emily was finding it hard to believe. She had been so


    immersed in her work for the past few days that she hadpletely lost track of what was happening


    in the world. She wasn''t prepared to hear such a blockbuster of a news all of a sudden.


    "Are you upset?" asked Jacob, as he stood up, and looked her straight in the eye. He was unable to tell


    whether Emily was d or sad from her facial expression.


    Emily looked at his face, lost in her own thoughts. She knew she could not hide anything from Jacob,


    so she decided to speak her mind. "I don''t care whether Jack is getting married or not. I''m just upset


    that he''s going to marry Rose. After everything she has done, it just feels wrong that she ended up


    getting what she wanted in the end," she said.


    "You really think so?" he asked.


    "You don''t believe me?" Emily was displeased.


    "I do," assured Jacob. He reached out and squeezed her rosy cheeks, then he put his finger on her


    lips, and said,"I''m d that you decided to tell me your real thoughts. I should have taken that into


    ount before."


    It took Emily a while to understand what Jacob meant. When she had finally caught on, she looked at


    Jacob with surprise and gasped. "You mean this was your idea?" she asked.
