Not One, But Two!

Chapter 248

"Hear me out, alright? It's better for you to dismiss the thoughts in your head if you wish to plead with the Fraser Family or fight me for the sake of Jonathan."

Thinking Emma was really going to plead on Jonathan's behalf, Abigail couldn't help but reprimand her silently in her heart. What is Emma thinking? Jonathan didn't even treat her that nicely, and he constantly brought up the topic of calling off the engagement. Can she be completely this dim-witted? How can she still continue letting herself dwell in that fake love? Not to mention that her reputation has been ruined by Jonathan's scheming plot. If this idiot still doesn't know how to repent—

However, Abigail's thoughts were interrupted by Emma's voice. Snapping back to her senses, she then heard these words come out of Emma's mouth. "I just want to know if I was the reason you deal with the Fraser Family and Jonathan in such a quick, merciless, and on-point manner?"

When Emma asked this, it was nerve-wracking. Her palms were sweaty, and she could feel her heart racing.

At this moment, none of her past nerve-wracking moments could surpass the nervousness that she currently felt. She wasn't even this nervous when she was afraid of being punished by Philip for her wrongdoings before. Yet, here she was, feeling nervous while waiting for Abigail's answer.

In terms of age, Abigail was slightly older than Emma. Additionally, the two of them had never seen eye to eye since childhood, not to mention Abigail even humiliated her in every possible way when she came begging. However, Emma was strangely not angry at Abigail. Instead, she even felt that everything Abigail did was for her own good.

At that moment, some of her previous cognitions in her mind seemed to have changed. Looking at Abigail, Emma realized that her past self was as daft as a brush. Meanwhile, Abigail had grown into such an outstanding young lady despite being oppressed by her and Sasha.

All I knew was that I was weeping in tears when Jonathan bullied me and ruined my reputation. When I found out that Dad was arrested and Mom's whereabouts were unknown, I became helpless and clueless, but everything seemed to be solved miraculously when Abigail dealt with it.

Previously, I thought Abigail could solve all her problems simply because she had found herself a remarkable boyfriend like Greg. But now that I think about it, I realize I was wrong all along. Oftentimes, Abigail solved all her problems by herself.

Five years ago, Abigail didn't even meet Greg yet when I joined forces with Jonathan to harm her. In the past years, she single-handedly raised her two children by herself. On top of everything, she even earned herself the title as the best surgeon in the world and lived a life that's unattainable by many. If it was me, I didn't think I would be able to do all that alone.

Now that Emma had stepped out of her own little box and gotten rid of her past prejudices and dissatisfaction with Abigail, she came to realize that she was useless in comparison to Abigail, who was like a shining star. Once again, she fell into her thoughts.

Both of us are the daughters of the Kain Family, but how can we be so different from each other? Thinking of that, Emma couldn't help but feel ashamed of herself. Yet, at the same time, the feeling of wanting to get close to Abigail also gradually rose inside her.

Meanwhile, Abigail didn't know Emma's thoughts after she learned about Jonathan's incident. However, she could notice Emma's gaze was different from before when she looked at her. Therefore, she involuntarily replied to her, saying, "I'm also a member of the Kain Family. Even if you're as dumb as a post, there's no way I will let him destroy you as long as you're also a part of the Kain Family."

Despite Abigail's reasons being short and logical, it still moved Emma. In an instant, her nose twitched, and tears ran down her cheeks. "Abigail, I'm sorry I was wrong before."

Knowing that she had always owed Abigail an apology, she even kneeled to express her sincerity.

As it was something beyond Abigail's expectations, she was startled by both Emma's apology and gesture. "E-Emma, you don't need to do this. Besides, I never thought of reconciling with you. Even though I don't care about some things, that doesn't mean I can forget about their existence. Emma, although I have no clear idea of what Philip did, he's the reason I saved you. But you have to bear in mind that the wonderful life that you had been living no longer existed, even if we could bail Philip out.

"And I don't think our sisterly bond is that deep, either. I'm just someone who dislikes trouble. Putting it behind my past doesn't mean I forgive you for what you ever did to me. So you better learn some basic survival skills while you can now. Once Philip is free, you'll leave this place. By then, I'll give you both a sum of money to ensure that you guys won't starve to death. But to live a lavish life is definitely out of the question. This is also the last thing that I can do for you two."

Looking at Emma's ghastly pale face, Abigail continued in a calm manner, "Go to bed earlier. As for your mother, all I can say is that I'm sorry. I really can't bring myself to disregard all the things that she ever did to me all these years. Her life and death don't really matter much to me. You should feel lucky at the fact that you and I are the children born of the Kain Family."
