A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Emily's mind paced as the adrenaline coursed through her body. Tina felt quite similar. She gave the order and soon Emily heard the sound of a loaded gun.

Emily froze. She slowly put the knife closer to her face and calmed her voice,"Don't move... Put down the gun, please."

The sharp knife was so close that Emily realized- this was going to get bloody.

"No! Emily, Don't do this!" Debby cried out. She continued,"Miss Tao, please...let her go..."

Emily looked at her mother with astonishment. She never expected to hear those words from her mother. Tina replied immediately,"Okay." However, nothing was ever as easy with Tina. "If you don't want to see your daughter suffer, I'll let her go, but only if you take her place. No, on second thought, I will let her go if she will be the one to destroy your face. How about that?" asked Tina.

Debby was shocked. Trembling with fear, her face was as pale as the moon.

Emily clenched her fists and said,"You are a monster! Have you lost your mind?

Do you know what you are doing?" After struggling for a while, Andrew managed to remove the tape from his mouth. He asked Debby to shut up and turned to Emily,"Emily, honey, please, help us! You have no idea what we've been through. I'd rather die than continue to live like this! Emily, I held you in my arms and bought you sweets as a child. Do you remember? Help me; help your father, please..."

Speechless, Emily stood there frozen as her heart sank to the floor. Andrew didn't care about her at all, and Emily was well aware of that fact.

Ever since she was just a child, Andrew hadn't liked her. Perhaps he didn't want her to be born as a girl, or maybe he had other reasons.

Because of that, Emily never expected to hear her father say something like that!

Emily couldn't deny that she was disheartened by her father's words.
