A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

The Bai couple were completely furious because their plot was discovered by Emily. They couldn't do anything since she didn't let them enter.

They started to feel uneasy. They tried to rack their head around, trying to find a solution.

Both of them thought they got this and everything would went just as smoothly as they had planned. Tina wasn't that reliable. And Emily wanted to break off the partnership between them. After all, they couldn't let their efforts end up in vain, could they?

If they had done what Mark asked them do, they could have received fifty million dollars. They could leave Jingshi City and go somewhere where nobody could find them and spend the rest of their lives there. They also contemplated if they should change their names so there wouldn't be any traces of them. The best time to strike was when Jacob had left.

Even though Emily said that she and Jacob had broken up, the couple still feared him. If he came back and found out what they had done...

They tried to shrug off the thought and hurriedly left Emily's apartment. They readied themselves to go to the Taos' and make negotiations with Mark.

At the Tao Villa, all the members of the Tao family were sitting in the living room. Tina became the center of their attention. She was put in such a high place that she was almost taken as an ancestor to worship by the rest.

Bess was glad when Tina was finally willing to go out of her room. Afraid of angering her, she carefully asked, "Tina, what would you like to eat? Mommy will cook it for you. You haven't been eating these past days and you're getting thinner. I'm so worried about you."

With a pink mask covering her face, Tina glared bitterly at her. Her voice was dripped in venom. "Do you seriously think you're good at cooking? I want some beef stew. Tell the cook to make it for me."

Bess was shocked at what Tina just said. Concealing her surprise, she gave an awkward smile, "I see. I'm sorry if that was thoughtless of me to say that. Don't worry, dear. I'll ask the cook to do it for you right away."

Abbott tried to speak with Tina but she also gave him a cold shoulder. The couple weren't mad at her but it ached their hearts to see her suffering.

If she hadn't experienced so many bad things, would their daughter grow to be like this?

Tina had been conceited, strong-willed, and impulsive. Despite how prideful she had got, she bloomed like a rose. Bright and brilliant. Now she was like a wilted plant trying to grow in a dark corner. She became cold, gloomy and was toxic towards everyone.

Despite of these, she was still their beloved child. No one could ever take her place.
