Having noticed Beryl's words of concern for her, a faint smile appeared on Emily's face. She asked Beryl to stand up while she remained on her knees.
Emily arranged all her offerings neatly. It was all the food Andrew and Debby loved to eat before they died. "Dad, Mom, I'm sorry. I know your favorite daughter is Tina, and you probably don't want me to oppose her." Emily accidentally spilled wine in front of the tombstone, with a trace of sadness in her eyes. "I don't want to go against you, but I just want to avenge your death." A cold breeze came in and rustled the dry leaves in the corner. Emily took a deep breath and stood up to hold her daughter in her arms. Since she didn't want Beryl to hear anything that would upset her, she leaned towards their tombstones, and spoke under her breath. "Dad, Mom, Tina is nowhere to be found. I probably won't be able to avenge your deaths anymore. A lot has happened since you left this world. I've been so busy with adjusting to all the changes that I haven't been able to come and pay my respects more often. I hope you can forgive me."
Nobody knew what would happen to her and Jacob, thus she couldn't promise her parents anything.
Emily looked at the black and white photographs on the tombstone. Her eyes shifted to the side again and became glazed with a glassy layer of tears. As she blinked, they dripped from her eyelids and slid down her cheeks. "Dad, Mom, good-bye for now." She made up her mind that she would try her best no matter what would happen to her and Jacob.
Emily did not stay in the cemetery for a long time. The death of her parents had always been a subject of great pain to her. The mere thought of Tina used to fill her up with hate. But then, she stopped carrying that hateful poison with her. She seemed to have lost all her strength and her ability to hate. Jacob was the only focal point of her priorities. All she wanted was for him to live a happy life. Only by solving the problem caused by Sean, could she really settle down and think about something else.
Soon Emily left the cemetery with Beryl.
On the way back, Emily suddenly thought of a man and asked the driver to take them to a luxury private hospital. Before long, they arrived at the gate of the hospital. After hesitating for a moment, Emily bought flowers and fruits near the hospital, and then went inside the hospital building with Beryl.
"Mommy, are we here to visit a patient?" Beryl seemed puzzled.
"Yes," Emily answered. "Beryl, do you remember Uncle Jack?"
Beryl nodded her head excitedly. "Yes! He saved me and took me to my father!"
"That's right." Emily found out about what had happened to Beryl from Jacob. She wanted to see Jack because he had gotten injured while protecting Beryl. 'Although Jack has hurt us before, I can't deny the fact that he put his own life in danger while trying to save Beryl. If anything, I'm not here to forgive his past sins, but to thank him.'
"So we're here to visit Uncle Jack, aren't we?" Beryl tilted her a little and took a guess.
Emily nodded at Beryl and then asked the nurse about Jack's ward. When they arrived at his ward, they were unexpectedly stopped at the door before they could even get in.
Several bodyguards dressed in black stood guard at the door of the ward, like statues, expressionless and stock-still. But if someone tried to get close to the ward, they would be stopped immediately.
"No visitors allowed. Strict orders from Master Jack. He doesn't want to see anyone," said one of the bodyguards.
Emily's face remained calm and unchanged. "Oh, he'll definitely see me. Please tell your master that it's Emily." The bodyguard wouldn't have made any further responses to Emily had it not been for the look of certainty and determination on her face. He stared her down quickly and then went inside to inform Jack.
In less than a minute, the bodyguard rushed out and politely said to Emily, "I'm so
I hadn't pushed Beryl away?"
Emily's face turned pale in a flash.
Jack's heart was full of resentment. "He didn't even think twice about killing his own daughter. How can you forgive him?"
"No, that's not true," Emily clenched her lip tight. "That's not what he wanted. He had his reasons..." "Then what were his reasons?" Jack could hardly control his temper anymore. Jack thought this time he would be strong enough to face Emily but he had lost his ability to think clearly the moment he laid eyes on her. 'This is not fair. How can Jacob be forgiven after everything he has done?'
Emily decided to keep Jacob's reason a secret from Jack. She had no choice other than to keep silent, but it seemed to Jack that she was being partial to Jacob. "Emily, why can't you be partial to me?" Jack wanted to get up and pull her in his arms, but his disabled legs had stopped him. His heart grieved. 'How could I forget that I am just a disabled person now?'
Suddenly, Emily reached out and patted his shoulder. Her movements eased his impending outburst of emotion. "Jack, do you regret sacrificing your legs to save Beryl?" "I have never regretted..." Jack responded straightaway.
"It's all right if you do," Emily pointed out his real thought. "No one would willingly lose the ability to walk. I admit that Jacob and I are sorry for you, and we need to thank you."
Jack's mind was blank and the light in his eyes had died. In his heart-wrenching silence, he seemed to have been engulfed in black air. "Yes, you are all sorry for me. Everyone is sorry for me! I hate... all of you! I should have stood by that night. How wonderful would it have been if Jacob had killed his own daughter?"
Dumbfounded by his words, Emily drew her hand and slapped him across the face without thinking. Jack stared into Emily's eyes burning with anger, and his heart fell silent again.
Soon, Jack's eyes turned maliciously red.
He roared in his heart, 'Why? Why did I agree to see her?
I keep telling myself that things will be different this time.
She always brings out the worst in me.'
Meanwhile, Emily's cold eyes tortured his soul, causing him a great deal of pain.
'God, why do you torture me like this?
Is it my destiny to be hurt by Emily again and again?'
"How can you say that in front of me?" she said. Emily was shaking furiously. Whatever sympathy she had for him had now completely disappeared. "I won't allow you to talk like that about my daughter, even though you've save her!"
Emily eyes had frozen over, robbing them of their usual warmth. "??Don't forget that you killed my other child."
