Chapter 339 On the Brink of Death

"Haha, didn't see this coming, did you, Emily? Your time's up."

Evelyn's eyes were bloodshot, her face twisted with rage as she spat out the words. Emily was completely stunned.

Tears streamed down her face as she realized she might not escape this time. Desperately, she grabbed anything within reach and hurled it at Evelyn.

But Evelyn was stronger and more agile.

She dodged effortlessly, slashing at Emily with a sharp knife, pushing her to her limits. Emily was terrified, frantically searching for anything to defend herself, but her hands came up empty.

Her hands trembled violently as she looked around in panic, realizing there was nothing left to throw at Evelyn. She screamed again.

This time, it was Evelyn's turn to be thrilled.

Gripping the knife tightly, her eyes were as cold and venomous as a snake's, sending chills down Emily's spine.

Emily was frozen in place.

"Emily, it's just your bad luck today! I didn't want to hurt you, but either you or your shameless mother has to die... You two have caused enough trouble for Hayden, and now you want to ruin me and Sophia... Did you really think you could push us around so easily?"

With that, Evelyn could no longer contain her fury. She lunged at Emily's heart with the knife, but in that instant, Michael rushed in!

"Michael!"

Michael took the blow, having called Andrew while running up the stairs. Michael was determined to protect Emily, even if it meant sacrificing his life.

He felt he owed her, and this was his way of repaying that debt.

So when Evelyn struck, Michael didn't hesitate to shield Emily.

As Emily screamed, Evelyn was also terrified.
