Chapter 46: Emma memory

Chapter 46: Chapter 46: Emma memory --- "Hahaha, mommy, I won." A little girl was hopping around happily, looking at her mother. Emma, with a smile, sits on the grass breathing heavily. "Princess, stop running and come to me. We’re already far away from your dad." The little girl’s blue eyes shone as she hugged Emma with a wide smile, showing her teeth. "Yes, mommy, I like you so much, I love playing with you." Emma, with a smile, hugged her little body back." "I love you also, my little princess..." "CRACK< CRACK>" The memory shattered Emma, clutching her chest, breathing heavily. She looked at the girl who made her long-buried memory appear. ’She looks like her, w why am I feeling that she is my daughter?’ Tears appear in her eyes as she wipes them quickly, didn’t want to feel those emotions that she buried with all her might. ’Why did this girl have to look like her? The guilt that is on my chest is hurting my chest.’ "Mother, are you alright?" She smiled weakly at Lilian and nodded. "Yes, princess, I’m alright, I’m going to my room, I forgot something." She quickly turned and walked away, opening her room, she lay on her bed, burying her face in her pillow, tears started falling like a dam ruptured. --- "Mom, my sister bullies me at school again." Emma is sitting on the sofa, patting little Lilian’s head. She closes her eyes, holding her tears. Lilian nodded weakly and clutched the hem of her dress as she was about to stand up. "Please don’t scold her, I fear she will bully me more." Emma comforted her and walked upstairs toward Betty’s room, unknown to her, behind her back, a ruthless look appeared on Lilian’s eyes. "Knock, Knock." "Princess, are you in?" An innocent voice came from the room, unlike anything Lilian had described. "Yes, mommy, come in." entering inside, she sits beside Betty’s bed, looking at her with love and little authority. "Princess, I heard you have beaten your sister again; she has a bruise on her neck. Did you do it?" The teenage girl’s eyes widened as she shook her head rapidly. "No, mommy, I swear I didn’t bully her, as you have told me I didn’t even meet her at school, please believe me, you can call school and ask." Emma took a deep breath and looked at her again, a little distrust in her eyes this time. "Princess, you know you said this previously, and I have called the school, and the footage shows you did bully your sister." ’Did I do something wrong while raising you? How can the kid I teach to be kind have become this way?’ The little girl started crying, her blue eyes looking at her pleadingly. "Mother, I swear I didn’t beat her, I don’t know why that footage shows I beat her, but I didn’t, pinky promise." The little girl raised her pinky finger toward her. Suddenly, she yelped as the door banged open. Damien, her big son, walked toward them angrily. "You, how can you do this? What did we do wrong to you, even after knowing you are not my sister, I treat you like my sister, but what did you do, you beat my sister, how can you be so cruel?" Emma’s eyes widen as she looks sternly at him. "Damien, apologize, how can you say such a delicate thing like this? She is your sister, and this will never change." Damien, already in anger, didn’t listen and raised his hand to slap her. The little girl shivered and hid in Emma’s arms. "Damien, are you gone mad? Did I teach you to behave this way?" Damien took a deep breath and said heavily. "I don’t care anymore, I don’t care about her anymore, she is not my sister, I gave her a chance many times, but she bullies my sister more and more, do you think I’m saying this without evidence? The footage shows her beating Lilian." Emma frowned and opened her mouth to say something, but her face went pale, and she felt Betty’s body fall on her; the shivering body went still. "AHHH, princess, wake up, please wake up." Damien’s face also went pale as he took a step ahead to check on her, but stopped his body trembling slightly. --- "Doctor, how is my daughter? It’s been two days, why is she not waking up?" Emma, clutching the doctor’s collar, shook him, her makeup disheveled, James trying to calm and comfort her. The doctor, freeing himself calmly, looked pitifully at her. "Miss, please calm down first. It may be shocking news, so please calm down first." "No, I’m calm, tell me I’m very calm." Emma wiped her tears and looked at her expectantly. The doctor looked at James for confirmation. James nodded slightly, hugging Emma. The doctor sighed and said. "Miss, we have to perform surgery immediately with the permission of Sir James, because she has a tumor on her head, but because the tumor was near her cerebellum, she has become mute." Emma’s eyes widen, and her shoulders start shaking. "What surgery? Why didn’t anyone tell me? Are you saying my daughter has become mute?" The doctor shook his head and said. "Miss, no, she can speak again, but make sure not to give her stress or she will become permanently mute." --- After that time, Emma did her best to take care of her, but the bullying escalated, and many footages show her beating Lilian, and Lilian’s entire body was covered in bruises. Damien, in anger, pointed at the door and said something Emma cant even imagine. "You get lost from our home, you are not part of my family, you orphan, get away, and don’t appear in our family again." Emma watched as Betty begged them with her little hands pressed together, as she was trying to say something, but couldn’t say anything. Despite her protest, they sent Betty to some other apartment, and dint tell where they had sent her.
