A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 252 Whatever You Like

In the detention room, Emily was sitting on the cold floor, with her face buried between her knees. Gradually, the loneliness awakened her long forgotten childhood memories.

"Do you know that when you were just a little girl, you loved to sleep all the time? That's why we gave you the name 'Emily'."

"Wow, you've won an award for this semester too. My Emily is just outstanding! What would you like for dinner? I will cook your favourite..."

"Emily, take care of yourself when you go off to university. You need to keep working hard. We want you to have a bright future ahead of you!"

All the memories that she had forgotten about rushed into her mind, but all they left were just the rough sketches. Debby's tender voice echoed clearly in her mind, as if she was standing right in front of her. Emily broke down in tears.

No matter how bad things had gotten between them, they used to love and care for her as if she was their real daughter. Their love was like the warmth and shelter in winter for her. She would never forget that.

Now, in her loneliness, she felt abandoned by all the people she loved the most. She felt like an orphan.

Emily's father and mother were no longer alive and nothing could fill the void they had left in her heart.

Emily wished with all her might, to bring her parents back to life, even though... Even though they wanted to hurt her for Tina's sake. However, none of that seemed like an issue anymore. If her forgiveness could bring them back, she would willingly set aside all her grudges against them.

Unfortunately, reality always found a way to betray people's hope.

As time went by, Emily wiped her tears and finally pulled herself together. She didn't know who was responsible for her parents' death, but there was a glow of determination in her tear-soaked eyes, telling her not to give up.

Emily swore to herself that she would not rest until the killer was found and brought to justice!

She racked her brains, scrambling through the recent events in her mind.
