Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 249 Revenge

After getting back to Starlight City, Emily tagged along with me to Grace Hospital to get my stitches out. By some stroke of luck, she landed a job as a receptionist there.

That night, I set up a meet with Derek at the Blue Ocean Bar. I didn't want Emily to know about it just yet, so I had Dennis take her home first.

Derek laid out all the info he dug up from back then.

Even though it had been eight years, seeing those documents still shook me. Fiona's death was Arthur's doing, but my reckless actions that night set it all in motion. It was a regret I could never shake off.

After Derek left, I sat by the window and drank a lot. Thinking about how reluctant Emily looked when she left, I shot her a message on Facebook, telling her I wouldn't be coming home tonight.

Later, it started to thunder. I stood by the window, listening to the storm outside, and started worrying about her. So, I grabbed my coat and left the bar.

When I got to the house, Emily opened the door and immediately threw herself into my arms.

That was the first time I felt Emily really relying on me, and it stirred up all sorts of feelings inside me.

That night, I definitely drank too much. With everything on my mind, I was irritable and lost control, being a bit rough during sex.

I must have hurt her because when I woke up in the morning and touched her, she flinched, looking a bit scared.

I felt really regretful and annoyed. I always wanted to protect her, but I kept unintentionally hurting her.

I realized I was losing control of myself more and more around her.

To get ready for that perfect revenge event, I took her shopping for clothes.

By chance, we ran into Arthur and his mistress at the mall. A $5,000 dress made Arthur start to feel scared.

And this was just the beginning of my revenge.

After dropping $5,000 on that dress, Emily felt bad about it. She didn't want to go to a restaurant and insisted on cooking at home. As long as she was happy, that was all that mattered to me. As long as she was by my side, even our bickering felt endearing.

A few days ago, I moved an old stereo from Martin's old dorm in Starlight City.

Listening to that old tape, Emily looked at me with admiration and said the lead singer's voice was really magnetic and captivating.

I wasn't great at handling compliments. When I felt her admiration, a small sense of pride welled up inside me.

We playfully teased each other. She was still easily embarrassed, blushing at sensitive topics, which made me want to tease her even more. I loved seeing her blushing face.
