A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Confusion and disbelief engulfed Emily body, knocking all other thoughts aside. She couldn't understand why Debby would rush out to protect Tina.

'Was mom trying to save Tina? But, I'm her daughter. Why did she want to protect Tina instead of me? Why?' thought Emily, feeling heart-broken and rejected.

Gangster A did not care about Debby's claims. He ordered in a cold tone,"Take them all away!"

In the end, Emily, Tina and Debby were all dragged into a black car. Desperate, Emily and Debby tried to scream for help, but the kidnappers had covered their mouths with tapes. They couldn't utter any words, their screaming stifled.

Even in despair, Emily wanted to ask Debby why she was protecting Tina, but unfortunately, she had lost that privilege because of the tape on her mouth. Emily could only lay her inquisitive eyes on Debby, as she looked her with shock and puzzlement.

Debby, however, was too guilty to look back into Emily's eyes.

Debby could no longer deny that at that critical moment, she only cared about Tina who was her own flesh and blood... Having convinced herself otherwise, Debby's guilt was cut short when she remembered that Emily was not her real child.

After a long time on the road, the car finally came to a stop.

The kidnappers took the three of them to a dark, damp basement. Not long after, a man with a scar on his face came in. He limped heavily as he walked towards them, while his gloomy eyes fell on Tina, who was lying unconscious.

"Tina, I bet you never thought you would fall into my hands one day, right?" said the man, whose name was Lay. He kicked Tina without pity, but to his disappointment, she did not wake up. Perhaps the dosage of the injection was too strong.

Lay used to be a skilled surgeon who had specialized in removing scars and plastic surgery. Perhaps it was his misfortune or just plain coincidence, that he was employed by Mark to treat the scars on Tina's body.
