Ch. 41: Stay Around You Now And Forever (Hunter Jackson) Chapter 41-15

Chapter 41: About to die anyway

Sally can't swim, she's a lead weight in water, she'll die if no one saved her.

That's why Emily didn't think it through, but it looked like she also can't swim. She only knew that someone must save Sally, otherwise, Sally will die.

She will die.

Splash, her head smacked onto the water and the impact almost knocked her unconscious.

"Sally.... Water rushed into her mouth as soon as she opened it, she couldn't breathe.

But she struggled to swim in the direction where Sally entered the water. She didn't even know when she learned to swim!

"Sally, Sally...'

A huge wave rolled and lifted her petite body before engulfing her. Emily became increasingly dizzy as her breathing got increasingly difficult.

The instances of the water going into her mouth and nose had increased but she persisted to swim over.

No one taught her how to swim and no one told her how to survive in the sea.

She only knew that she had to swim to Sally and get her out of the water.

She finally touched Sallys body. She clenched her teeth and with a final breath, pulled Sally to the surface. As she pulled Sally to the surface, she struggled to breathe and her body shook violently.

She no longer had any strength to reach the surface. The more she struggled, the more she sank.

She couldn't breathe, not even half a breath of fresh air. Is she going to die?

Her consciousness was fading and she felt increasingly uncomfortable.

She can breathe, completely can't breathe! When she opened her mouth, it wasn't air that entered but a mouthful of salty seawater.

She's really going to die...

In her daze, she seemed to see a face and it's getting clearer.

Emily wanted to stretch but felt that her limbs are stiff, she cannot move at all.

Her breathing stopped, eyelids were heavy and could no longer open them...

Then, her sinking body was grabbed by something and something soft pressed against her lips.

Emily opened her eyes and desperately breathed a breath. She can breathe!

She seemed to see Hunter s face but the face was too close and she could not see the facial features. But she khew he was Hunter.

Lord, she knew that this man was a disaster. Even when she was about to die he appeared to torment her senses. Why in the last moments of

her life did she imagine Master Jackson kissing her?

Emily, you lustful woman, you lived two lifetimes and are still so horny.

But, her body was totally spent of energy. Even though she seemed to have breathed a breath of fresh air, she still cannot last much longer...

It was so cold, her head was so painful.

Emily didn't know if she was already dead or still alive. Something was crushing her chest and it was difficult to breathe.

Sally...

"Sally!"

The girl on the bed opened her eyes and sat up.

"Sally...' She moved, her hand was held back by something, it was very painful.

But she didn't care and used what strength she had to pull it down.

"Emily, don't move!" Sally rushed over and hugged her arm to prevent her from pulling out the needle.

"don't move, you'll hurt yourself"

"Sally?" Emily finally could see clearly the person in front of her. She hugged her excitedly and almost cried.

"Sally! You're not dead! You're well! You're not deadly"

"I'm alive, I'm not dead. I'm living well"

When she thought of what had happened, Sally's eyes also turned red.

She hugged Emily in return and said, "Emily, I kept saying that you bully me but I know that you are very good to me."

Even when Emily couldnt swim, she jumped from such a high point into the sea to save her.

She thought that she was going to die and didn't expect to be pulled to the surface by someone who didn't know how to swim.

But after Emily pulled her to the surface, she was too tired and started to sink to the bottom of the sea.

She was barely conscious and fortunately was saved by Master .Jacksons men but she couldn't see Emily.

She also didn't expect the high and mighty, no-nonsense Master .Jackson to jump in without hesitation to save Emily.

Though they are all safe now, only those who were present just now could appreciate how dangerous the situation was.

"Everything's fine, everything's fine now. Don'tt cry anymore. Aren't you all safe?"

Doe almost cried on seeing the two, who escaped death, crying.

He didn't know how scary the situation was. He only knew that Emily was still unconscious when Sally informed them to come.

Someone said that she inhaled too much seawater and almost died... Crap! She's alright now, as long as she's safe.

Terry was also looking at them and when he saw Emily wake up, he began to ease his fists which were clenched for the entire time.

They were all alive and doing fine.

"How did I survive?" Emily asked curiously when she calmed down. "didn't I sink?"

She remembered clearly that as she sank and almost lost consciousness, she imagined Master Jackson kissing her.

It was a deadly romantic kiss and she also hugged Master .Jackson and kissed with abandonment.

She was going to die anyway and She loved him for a lifetime but couldrt get his love. She wanted to kiss him as much as she could before she died.

But how did she come back?

"don't you remember?" Sally blinked when she saw her puzzled looks, she helped her focus, 'Master Jackson saved you!"

"Master Jackson?" Emily frowned and shook her head.

Sally recalled the situation in a daze, "Master Jackson was so brave! You were already nowhere to be found and he kept looking for you in the sea."

"Just when everyone had given up, Master .Jackson carried your lifeless body and emerged from the sea.'

"At that moment, Master .Jackson was like the God of War, the way he carried you was so cool! It was like a scene right out of the movies!

Oooh!"

"Hang on, hang on a minute." Emily felt that something didn't add up. "You said that it was Master Jackson who carried me out?"

"Yes, at that time you were unconscious..."

Sally recalled and her eyes lit up, "Oh yes, at that moment, you held on tightly to Master .Jackson and refused to let go!"

"What?"

"The doctor had already arrived and wanted to resuscitate you but you just refused to let go. In the end, it was Master Jackson who did the CPR on you."

"I... didn't let go?" She started to recall some of the events.

She was thinking of kissing as much as she could before she died. She didn't let

go because she couldn't get enough of kissing him...

Could it be that she wasn't fantasizing and it actually happened?

That when she almost died, she hugged Master .Jackson and passionately kissed

him?

 

Chapter 42 Blame me for losing control

Before Emily could get over her embarrassment, the door opened, and in came the doctor and nurses.

Behind the doctor was Hunter. He already changed his clothes. White shirt with black trousers, a formal look.

There was no trace of the commotion that happened that night at sea.

In an instant, he was back to his serious and stern self, cold and distant god-like being.

Sally didn't even dare to look directly at him from afar. She stood aside as soon as Master Jackson entered.

Liam was behind Hunter and he smiled in relief when he saw that Emily has awakened.

"Missus, you've finally awakened. How are you feeling? Do you want to continue?"

Continue? Continue what?

Emily was confused and wanted to look at Hunter but she didn't dare to.

She thought about her forcibly kissing him and felt so embarrassed.

She felt guilty even when she peeked at him.

"What's the situation?" Hunter looked calmly and emotionlessly at her.

That cool and calm voice, it was as if nothing happened that night.

The doctor inspected Emily and said, "She's out of any danger.'

The nurse removed the intravenous drip. She was much better after the infusion.

Apart from being slightly pale, she was as good as any other person.

Liam sighed a breath of relief, "Then, in a while, we should be able to continue with the banquet?"

Emily remembers that when Hunter drove to accompany her to look for Sally, he did have Liam to inform everybody to wait.

Who would dare to leave if Master Jackson said to wait?

"What's the time now?" Emily turned to look at Sally.

"Two in the morning." Sally stole a peek at Hunter. She idolized him.

Master Jackson really had the authority. All the quests were the elite of Bentson City. But when he wanted them to wait, not one person objected!

This was truly a capable man! This was what every man in the world try to attain in their life!

Itfs a pity that there is only one Master .Jackson. All the rest must slog for ten lifetimes before they can attain a tenth of his prowess!

Emily finally calmed down and though she still didn't dare to look at Hunter, she was less guilty.

She decided to forget about her shameless attempt to kiss him forcibly. Forget it. She lĺ be fine when she has forgotten about it.

"Oh! That, are we going back now?"

"No hurry, Missus, rest awhile more, I'll have someone bring over your gown. Wash your face and then we'll go back."

Wash face?

Emily couldn't resist and touched her face, is there anything on her face?

it wasn't clear where Sally obtained a mirror and she gave it to her, No matter, the makeup ran a little, in a while [II redo your makeup...'

"Yikes! Ghost!"

Emily stared into the mirror and half her waterproof mascara ran down her cheeks. The other half encircled her eyes.

As for her lipstick... She was in the sea for so long, and it appeared that it didn't fade a bidl

The lipstick smudged beyond the edges of her lips, and she looked like a circus clown!

Ah, ah, ah, ah! Who was this ghost? It was definitely not her!

Emily almost fainted when she thought that she had used these clown lips to kiss Hunter.

Master Jackson was so kind not to have given her a fatal blow and throw her back into the sea. He was too kind!

The engagement continued at four in the morning.

When Hunter brought Emily up the stage, everyone below had a multitude of thoughts.

No one knew what games this third daughter of the Gale family was playing. The

first time she went missing, and now she made everyone wait till the wee hours of the morning.

Everyone hadn't slept for a night, and at this time, even if they could muster a smile, they were definitely criticizing within them.

If it wasn't out of respect for the Jackson family, who would be willing to wait?

But of course, no one dared to disrespect Master .Jackson.

Regardless, everyone was unhappy to have waited until now.

Since they can bear a grudge against Master Jackson, they put all the blame onto

Emily.

"This woman went crazy and ran. Master .Jackson looked for her for the entire

night."

"That can't be, if that ugly woman wants to run, then let her? Why look for her?" "That's why the ugly ones will cause trouble....

Though the murmurs were soft, some of these words floated up the stage and into their ears.

The patriarch of the Jackson family was expressionless and stern on the stage. Though he has not indicated anything, it was obvious that he was in a foul mood.

If it wasn't for Grandma Jackson, he would have lost his temper!

She looked at the two of them and sighed softly without speaking a word.

At this time of the morning, no matter how the master of ceremony tried, he

couldn't rouse up the atmosphere.

All the hate focused on Emily.

Emily kept telling herself not to be affected by these.

What happened tonight was indeed her responsibility.

No matter what, those looks of discontent added to her immense stress.

Furthermore, the entire Jackson family was there and she couldnt possibly

completely disregard their impression of her.

Grandfather Jackson must be angry with her as well.

Suddenly, a large hand grasped her tiny hands tightly.

This was the first time that Hunter willingly took the microphone from the MC. He rarely spoke at events, even when representing the company for press briefings. Master .Jackson was about to speak! Everyone quietened down. Even grandparents Jackson was surprised.

Originally everyone thought that he would simply exchange rings with Emily, and it'll be over. After all, he wasn't that keen on this engagement. Everyone was curious about what Master Jackson wanted to say. What did he mean to convey with him holding tightly to this ugly woman's hands?

Holding onto Emily s hand, he looked expressionlessly at the guests and calmly said, 'I'm sorry to let everyone wait for so long tonight. Due to my losing control, I am to be blamed for causing all the inconvenience to everybody.'

He let go of Emily s hand but pulled her entirely over. How intimate and sweett What did he mean by losing control'? Does he want them to guess?

Lord! The reason for the wait was due to Master .Jackson?

Was it because the woman was too seductive and he couldn't resist?

Could that be true? He...couldn't resist?

The women present refused to believe that he couldn't resist.

Who was able to accept that Master .Jackson couldn't resist an ugly woman and

set aside his engagement banquet to get...with her?

Who was the one who said that Master Jackson liked Wendy and not Emily?

This passion between them was clear to everyone!

It is impossible for him not to like Emily.

 

Chapter 43 In fact, you are most eviÌ

Losing control...

When she saw the looks of everyone around, even a mentally challenged will understand what Hunter meant. Her small face became red hot and was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to wriggle.

Was Master Jackson shouldering the blame for her? But why didn't he think of a more usual excuse? She wanted to escape, but Hunter held her tightly in his arms, not allowing her to move.

Her embarrassed looks made what he said even more convincing.

Though Grandma Jackson was advanced in age, her grandson made her giggle like a teenager.

She was uneasy a moment ago, but now she was smiling from ear to ear. She was pleased to see that their relationship is good. That raised her spirits.

Grandfather .Jackson, who was fuming a moment ago, felt much better when he saw that his wife was in good spirits.

He looked at Hunter with a trace of blame. How can he say such things in a public event such as this? Does he have no shame?

But, his eldest grandson was authoritative. No matter what he said, he will still command respect and acceptance.

Even he, as an elder of the family, was proud of his grandson's stature.

The MC was stunned for a couple of seconds and, in an attempt to control the atmosphere, said, 'Master and Missus .Jackson are truly loving towards each other!"

He adjusted his expression and laughed, "Everyone waited so long for this moment, now our honorable Patriarch Jackson will officiate this engagement...'

The mood on the stage was pleasant. Both Patriarch and Master Jackson were men of few words. But, the guests started to be rowdy.

Emily was in a daze when she placed the engagement ring on Hunter s finger.

The event was like her wedding night in her previous life.

Similarly, Hunter placed the ring onto her ring finger. The ring was chilly, without a trace of temperature.

Today, different fingers and different ring design was being placed by him on her finger.

She had a warm feeling. Was it due to Hunter's presence, or was it his protection tonight?

No matter why Sally was alive and that she was successfully engaged to Hunter, her current life was utterly different from her previous life.

This was a new beginning, a new life.

Suddenly her waist tightened up and she was carried up by Hunter.

Emily was stunned, she grabbed his clothes, "Master Jackson...

"m sorry my girl is too tired. Im going to take her home now. Please enjoy yourselves."

Once he finished, he carried her down the stage and walked directly towards the exit without looking back.

The grandparents followed closely behind.

Though there were still members of the .Jackson family, at this hour, everyone just wanted to go home to rest. Everyone started to shuffle out of the hotel.

Only one person remained standing in position and looked on as Hunter carried

Emily out. Her íists were clenched tightly and in deep thoughts.

"Isn't this our number one socialite, second daughter of the Gale family?" Someone laughed from behind.

Wendy composed herself and turned around with her signature smile, How do you do?"

"Aren't you very fond of Master Jackson?" Another lady stared at her, 'And I heard that she found someone to beat you up because Master dackson likes you."

"No, it wasn't like that, Emily was just a little strong-headed...'

"Is your sister strong-headed, or was it you who fabricated facts to slander others?"

That lady scoffed sister!"

disgust, ^Everyone could see that Master Jackson loves your

Even if you disregard what he said about his 'losing control, at the stage, he was very affectionate towards Emily. Everyone could see it.

Furthermore, so as not to let his girl get too tired, he even carried her when they

left.

Which girl has received such privilege? Additionally, Master Jackson was never close to any other girl.

"He is your sister's fiance, what's the meaning of you individually toasting him wine? Are you trying to wedge between them?"

Another lady walked over condescendingly, looking at Wendys face, "! wondered today's massive news about the number one socialite being slapped by Emily." "Why?"

"Someone is trying to use this event to gain some pity, can't you all see it?"

"Oh, that's the reason. This woman is so evil, she desires her sister's fiance and wants to use all sorts of means to seduce Master Jackson?"

"To think that you look so elegant and decent, how can you be so evil?"

These few women continued to move forward and forced Wendy to retreat a couple of steps.

"I didn't. You are mistaken. I don't know what was spreading on social media." When these women gang up, they are truly frightening.

Wendy backed off and continued to explain, 'I'm Emily's elder sister. How could I harm her? Our relationship has always been very good, you've misunderstood.'

"Oh, really? Then why did you offer Master .Jackson a drink? What's the meaning of that?"

"I'm just trying to...

"Trying to win Master .Jackson over? Snatch your sister's fiance! Ha, ha, ha... slut!"

Everyone was sniping at Wendy not allowing her a chance to rebut.

"you've wrongly accused me! I really didn't!" She turned and ran towards the hotel entrance.

In her haste, she ran into a person entering the hotel.

"Im sorry.... Wendy raised her head and didn't expect that the person she bumped into was Manson.

She grabbed his sleeve and said, 'Manson, those women... are so viciousU"

She needs a man's protection! Those venomous women were jealous of her beauty and ganged up against her!

"Manson, they bullied me...' She saw those women coming out. Wendy immediately presented herself as a fragile victim.

Manson looked on at the women.

They were daughters of the elite families whose status was rather high and beautiful in their own right.

"Master Manson." They greeted him sweetly, totally different from their vicious self a moment ago.

"Master Manson, the banquet is over, why are you still here?" One of the ladies walked to Manson, flashing her eyelids.

Manson didn't even look at Wendy but looked at this lady and smiled, "I'm here to send you all home. Thats why m still here!"

"Manson...' Wendy was shocked. didn't he hear her speak? These vicious women bullied her!

"Wendy, you're here too?" As if Manson just saw her, he said softly, 'm sorry, I have to send them back. If you need a ride, you can call for one."

He looked at the ladies and said, "Ladies, the car is just outside, can I be your driver tonight?"

 

Chapter 44 Be Alone with Him Again

What kind of person was Master Manson?

Though he can't be compared to Master .Jacksons magnetism, he was still someone that women of Bentson City will try to attract.

When Master Manson said that he wanted to send them home, who will turn him down?

And so, Wendy saw them leaving with Manson, who didn't even bother to look at her.

The car left the area and disappeared from her sight. And so, she has been abandoned!

Charles thought that she was with Manson and left before her.

At the hotel, the guests had almost all gone home. She was the only one left pitifully behind.

Why, why, did Manson, who was always fond of her, abandon her for a few ugly women?

What was worse was how did Emily come back? And how did she come back with Hunter?2

What was that dumb woman doing to let them have a chance to get engaged!!

Her cell phone rang and Wendy looked at the screen. It was Amy, and she didnt know whether to answer. In the end, she silenced the phone, and placed the phone into her bag.

Since Emily and Hunter came back together, it meant that Hunter was involved.

Therefore, she can be linked to Amy. Otherwise, there will be trouble.

One engagement banquet, and she not only saw Emily and Master .Jackson get engaged, but she was also abandoned by Manson. She was furious!

She wandered along the streets. She was angry. She didn't even bother about maintaining her reputation as a goddess. She stomped her feet.

Unexpectedly, a low-key luxury car appeared out of nowhere and horned from behind her.

"The first socialite of Bentson City is throwing tantrums?" The window rolled down, and someone asked, "Ms. Gale, shall we have a chat?"

Wendy looked at him in surprise, "... It's you?"

Emily was staying at Hunter s Villa.

It was already daybreak by the time the banquet was over. To let the grandmother rest, they had decided to postpone the family formalities.

After a few days when grandmother felt better, they'll have another gathering at home. It'll be good for everyone to get to know Emily.

Emily didn't speak a word from the hotel to the villa. Hunter also leaned back with her eyes closed to rest without any intention to say anything.

Though Emily was seated behind with Master .Jackson and Liam was in front driving, she felt as if she was alone.

She felt awkward about what happened tonight.

She forcibly kissed him, and Master Jackson didn't even mention anything about it as if there was no necessity to.

But she felt so touched by the way he protected and saved her. Her heart was still racing erratically.

She stole a peek at him occasionally. His side face was immeasurably beautiful and flawless. The more she looked, the faster her heart pounded.

How can she not feel for him when he protected her to this extent?2

Why was Master Jackson so affectionate towards her in this life?

Could it be that by reliving a life, the love life has also changed?

Emily's face was heating up, and she gently felt her cheeks with her hand. The temperature was shocking!

She looked at Hunter again, and he maintained his position as if he had fallen asleep.

In his state right now, any young woman's heart will explode...

Finally, the car stopped at the entrance of the Villa.

Emily followed Hunter to the second floor.

Today was their engagement day. What if he insisted on sleeping with her?2

"I heard that you've skipped your classes for a week." He asked softly as they reached the second floor.

Emily was surprised and stopped at the entrance to his room. She lifted her head to look at him.

Hunter was the same, cool expression, "Rest for half a day and at noon, someone will take you to school."

He walked past her into the room and said coldly, "Though we have an agreement, outwardly, you are still my fiance. I don't wish that there are rumors outside saying that my fiance has to retake her university exams."

Thereafter, the door closed in her face.

He didn't want his fiancee to retake exams during university...

Emily spent the whole of three seconds to digest what he said!

What warmth, what sweetness, what he must sleep with her...

Emily was confused. Why did it feel like someone reached out and pa pa pa slapped her several times across her face?

He only treated her as the partner in an agreement.

Agreement! Has she forgotten about it? She signed the agreement last night with Hunter.

The engagement was for show, and he won't marry her after two years, they are together as an act to show grandma.

After the engagement, each will live their life with no attachments!

Emily felt so foolish for the expectations she had of him after he had stated so clearly.

"Who says that I have to retake my exams! My results are excellent! Don't look down on me!"

She shouted at the closed door, "If I have to retake my exams, I'll slave for you without complaints!"

What a condescending fellow! Is she the type who has to retake her exams?

"Agreed!" Master Jackson actually replied from inside.

Emily got a scare, and she almost lost her footing.

Can this sêoundrel not have such good hearing?

The room door opened, and Hunter threw out a school bag.

"Liam prepared the things for you. If this semester you need to retake a test, [II let

you know how a pitiful a slave lived."

The school bag was thrown on her body. Its so heavy it knocked her down to the ground.

The door closed again. His cold and expressionless face suddenly vanished.

The warning continued to ring in her ears.

Pitiful...

Emily shuddered, hugged her bag, and walked to her room.

Damned Hunter, how dare he threatened her, it's too much!

To think that she was touched by him several times last night and today.

Is she a fool? He saved her to avoid canceling the engagement banquet and to fulfill grandma's wishes. Even if it wasn't her, he will do the same and save that person.

Touched? For what!

Back in her room, she threw the bag onto the chair. She quickly washed up and divided onto her bed.

Slave... can he disregard what she said and treat it as a joke and not mention it again?

Her higher mathematics, Physics, foreign language...ah ah ah! She hates homework...

In her daze, she didn't know when she had fallen asleep.

She was awoken by the cell phone's ring tone.

"Hello,' Emily answered the call, and her voice was still muffled.

Over the phone, Sally's fear was transmitted over, 'Emily, Im so scared!"

"What are you scared of?"

"Amy... Amy committed suicide!"

 

Chapter 45 Just Wait for the Lawsuit

Amy committed suicide and was now unconscious at the hospital.

Apparently, before her suicide, she left a note on social media, accusing Sally of bullying her. She said that Sally was backed by someone powerful.

She actually went directly to accuse Sally!

"Emily, what can I do?" Sally hid the entire morning at the dorm. She didn't dare to go out.

"Have you had your lunch?" Emily knew that in her state, she might not have drunk a mouthful of water.

True enough, Sally shook her head.

It was past lunchtime, and she could only order a take out for her.

She pulled over a chair and sat facing Sally, looking at her pale face.

"I had no time to ask you about what happened last night. Why did you walk to the pier on your own?"

"I saw you" Sally now knew that she had seen wrongly and misidentified.

"I dont know if it was arranged by those people. After the accident, I saw two men dragging you to the pier.'

"And you ran over on your own?"

Emily didn't know to pity her for being stupid, or scold her for being an idiot!

"Wasn't! talking to you over the phone? How could I be dragged by someone?"

This girl! doesn't she have the ability to think?

"....

Sally thought for a while, and her face began to blush in red, "Yeah... yeah, come to think of it..."

At that moment, she was talking to Emily over the phone, how could she have seen Emily and ran over?

Sally felt so stupid! Perhaps she was dazed after the accident?

"But now, what should I do?"

She's just an ordinary student, and apart from reading news on the internet, she

didn't have any other means of getting news about Amy.

"How could Amy commiit suicide? She was so in love with herself."

Emily pursed her lips and thought deeply.

Sally could only look and wait for her responses.

Emily suddenly said, 'I didn't suspect Amy over last night's incident. But from the

looks of it, she could well be the mastermind."

"What? Do you mean to say that Amy instructed those men to kidnap me?"

Sally was shocked and couldn't believe it!

"But how can there be so muuch hatred between us? I only laughed at her several times at the Phoenix Hotel."

4Just a few jokes, and she wanted to kidnap a person over that? Isn't she too petty?

"Even then, how much did she have to pay to kidnap me? How could that stingy Amy be willing to spend so much money to do something that doesn't benefit herself?"

This sentence made Emily frown again. A few matters became clearer to her now.

Sally surely doesn't know that those mens actual objective was to interfere with her marriage.

But what Sally said was true, how could Amy spend so much to kidnap Sally? Unless this incident had nothing to do with Amy?

"Sally!" a series of footsteps, and thereafter someone knocked on the door.

Emily and Sally exchanged looks. Sally wiped her tears and went to open the door.

Once the door was opened, a woman dashed inside.

The woman pointed at Sally and said angrily, "Sally, you're too much! You actually forced someone to kill herself, how can you be so evil?"

"Exactly, Amy is still at the hospital. You must go over and kneel down to seek her forgiveness!" Another woman said.

Someone else pointed at her and yelled, "Sally, you're inhumane."

"If Amy really died, will you be able to live with yourself?2"

"Sally, who is your mastermind? Are you with someone rich?"

"Its bound to be an old rich man"

"What are you talking about? don't wrongly accuse me!" Sally was furious, but she didn't know how to retaliate.

The few women surrounded her. Some people outside looked on curiously, and no one helped.

Sally was frightened till she started to tremble, she didn't know how to defend herself.

Someone moved forward to push her.

Instead, Emily grabbed her hand and pushed her back.

"Emily, how dare you to touch me?" That woman looked clearly at her before replying in a deep voice, ^Ugly creature, do you want to die?"

"Do you want to do this in school? I already informed the students, and the disciplinarian will soon arrive. Fight, I dare you!"

Though the university is not ranked first among the universities, it's not far from second.

If they started to fight, she would be suspended by the school. Their school jis very strict about this.

That woman was Fanny, and she was studying a different subject from Emily.

She pointed to Sally, 'Sally did suuch a thing, we..."

"Excuse me, what did Sally do?"

"She forced Amy to commiit suicide!"

"Then tell me, what did she do?" Emily stepped forward, staring at Fanny's face, "When, where, what did she do, and what did she say? Tell me!"

Who could guess, the usual weak and ugly Emily could get so firm and fierce!

Being stared and asked by her, even Fanny stepped backward two steps.

"She... she... What Sally did wasnt written clearly by Amy in her suicide note.

Amy only said that she was bullied by someone who loved to put on thick makeup and liked to hang out with the ugly Gale girl.

Those who knew Amy knew that she and Emily couldn't get along.

Then the person she described could be no one other than Sally.

At the university, no one else was willing to hang out with Emily.

"You all dodn't have any evidence to prove that Sally bullied Amy. And just because Amy wrote it down, you blame Sally for the suicide!"

Emily moved forward another step. Fanny backed off two steps. She was almost out of the room.

The people looked at Emily's freckled face argued logically.

Fanny regained her balance.

She retorted, "She caused such a big issue, will the Winston family pardon her? Sally, just wait for the lawsuit! Perhaps you may have to spend half of your life locked up!"

They were in school, and they cannot do anything physical. So the few of them continued to curse and laughed coldly as they left.

Emily closed the door with a thud. She turned around and looked at Sally who sat trembling in a corner.

If Amy really died, the Winston family will come for her!

Though the Winston family wasn't a first-rate family, they were still influential in

Bentson City.

As an ordinary student, how can she handle it?

"Emily.' She hugged Emily's arm, her voice trembling, "Will I... will I end up in jail?"
