Not One, But Two!

Chapter 257

Chapter 257

"I don't have any money. I really have none." A frightened Emma closed her eyes and sniveled, her body trembling from fear.

Sasha was slightly worried when she saw how scared Emma was. "Emma, it's me."

Hearing Sasha's voice, Emma stopped crying and opened her eyes. When she saw that Sasha was indeed right in front of her, she hugged Sasha and cried in aggrievance. "Where were you? Dad was caught, you went missing, and I was tricked by Jonathan. I'm so embarrassed, and I don't even have a single dollar with me right now. Do you want me to starve to death?"

Emma forced herself to grow up by Abigail's side in the past few days. However, she could not bear it anymore and broke into tears when Sasha, the woman who loved her most, was right in front of her.

Sasha, on the other hand, felt sorry for Emma too. "Silly girl. Didn't I come back for you? Come on. Pack up and leave this place with me."

Sasha's words stunned Emma for a moment. "Leave this place? Where are we going?"

"We're leaving Harrion. It's over for the Kain Family, so why would you stay here? Come with me, and I promise you that you will continue living the lavish life as you did before." Sasha looked around as she spoke because she seemed to be worried.

It was only now that Emma realized Sasha was donned in the latest collection of luxury clothing. Even her purse was of the latest season too. The Kain Family has bankrupted. Where did she get the money to buy all these?

In the past, Emma would not have noticed such things. She trusted anything Sasha told her and she was under the illusion that she had nothing to worry about as long as Sasha was by her side. However, Emma learned a lot after spending some time with Abigail in the past few days.

Although Emma was still an idiot compared to Abigail, she had improved nonetheless. Hearing that Sasha would bring her away from Harrion, Emma felt afraid for some unknown reason.

She was afraid that her beliefs would come crumbling down, but it was something she had to ask. "What is Dad going to do if we leave? Don't you know that he was almost assassinated and unconscious right now in the hospital?"

Emma looked at Sasha, hoping to catch a glimpse of concern Sasha used to have for her father, but she saw none.

It made Emma's heart sink.

When Sasha heard that Emma was concerned about Philip, she said, "Why do you care about him? He's selfish and has always prioritized his own benefits before any other things. Have you forgotten that you were only a priced object to him? He was planning to make you marry whoever gives the most expensive betrothal gift! You don't need a father like him. Plus, he's bankrupt and was arrested, which means that his life is probably over, and he won't be able to do much even when he's out. A father like him will only be an embarrassment to you. Listen to me. After we leave this place, I'll change your last name to mine. You can never mention that you are Philip Kain's daughter in the future, do you understand?"
