A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 228 You Are Crazy

Tina immediately felt sick when she heard Mark calling himself her brother. "I can still take care of myself," said Tina coldly.

"Be a good girl. Don't be so stubborn," Mark coaxed Tina, as he brushed her hair with his fingers. He continued, "I'll take you out for a walk later."

Tina glared at him with contempt, but she could only purse her lips and compromise.

As a result, Mark contently won the right to feed his beloved one. He fed Tina meat and vegetable, well-proportioned in a bite. He also fed her extremely carefully, fearing that it would affect the wounds on her face.

Mark was even willing to chew every bite of food before feeding her, if Tina didn't think it nauseating.

Mrs. Tao sensed something odd when she saw Mark and Tina's behavior, but she could not point out what it was.

Tina and Mark had got along well with each other ever since they were children, so it was not strange that they were so intimate. 'Maybe I'm worrying too much, ' Mrs. Tao thought.

The whole family had a healthy lunch, silently. None of them dared to mention anything about Emily, to avoid any adverse reaction from Tina, especially since she was so volatile at the moment.

After lunch, Mark took Tina outside for a walk. Soon after, they came back. Tina shut herself in her room and forbade anyone from coming in. Before long, she started to smash whatever she could get her hands on into pieces.

Mark just stood outside Tina's room quietly. He could not imagine what kind of pain Tina was going through, but he didn't want her to conceal her feelings. Mark figured breaking things was a good way

for her to vent all her negative feelings rather than harming herself. He chose to side with the lesser of two evils.

......

Meanwhile at the Tyrone Mansion.

Ever since the fire at the hotel, Jacob had Emily locked up at the mansion and did not allow her to go outside. Only Debby and Andrew were allowed to come and visit her from time to time.

Debby and Andrew visited Jack at the hospital. They told Emily that even though Jack was not in a critical state, he was still badly injured and very weak.

Emily felt a deep sense of guilt eating at her insides because if Jack hadn't saved her, he would not have been so badly injured. Jack had saved her from several life threatening situations, but she never got around to returning the favor. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

It felt like a lifetime ago since all those unpleasant things between them had happened, and Emily had already moved on. She would have felt upset, regardless, even if a stranger had gotten hurt because of her.

Therefore, after deep consideration, Emily decided to visit Jack in person.

Emily just went to have a look at him, otherwise she would felt guilty about it for the rest of her life.

Emily tried to get out and visit Jack over the past few days, but she just couldn't find the right opportunity to do so. Since Jacob had to go out on a business trip, Emily finally found the chance she was looking for, so she let Debby and Andrew screen her and then she sneaked out furtively.

Emily took a taxi to the street on the opposite side of the hospital. However, as soon as she got off the taxi, she sensed that someone was following her secretly. Immediately, fear gripped Emily because she

felt like she was being followed by a viper, and no matter what she did she couldn't shake it off her back.

But every time she looked back, there was no one behind her.

Emily frowned and her eye-brows furrowed with worry the more she thought about it. Who was following her?

Emily couldn't figure it out, so she made a wrong turn deliberately and entered the hospital through the byway. However, as she made the turn, she saw the reflection of a familiar person behind her on the glass window of the store on the other side of the road.

Emily's body trembled as she looked coldly at the person behind her. Although the person was wearing a mask, Emily could still recognize that person from a mile away.

It was Tina!

Emily had so many unpleasant and unwanted encounters with Tina over the past few months, that she could recognize Tina even though she was hiding behind a mask. There was no way Emily could forget all the things that had happened between the two of them.

"Tina!" cried Emily, as she turned around suddenly and looked at the woman following her, with disgust.

Tina locked her in the restroom and tried to kill her with the fire that day. What did Tina want with her now?

Tina, however, didn't feel nervous after she was found out by Emily.

Conversely, Tina walked out from the corner behind the advertising board and looked at Emily with abhorrence. "Emily! You bitch! Why didn't the fire kill you the last time? You are the one who should have been dead! Why are you still walking around alive; safe and sound?" cried Tina.

Why? Life had not been fair to Tina at all!

Emily pursed her lips tightly and watched as the woman approached her step by step. She had a gut feeling that Tina was going to do something bad to her.

"What do you want?" asked Emily.

After being held captive by Mark, Tina finally managed to escape from her prison. She was planning on finding Emily, but she didn't think that she would come across Emily so easily. It was too good to be a coincidence.

Now that her prey had come to her on her own, Tina thought she would make good use of this opportunity to do what she had been dreaming of since the day of the fire.

Tina took off her disposable blue mask with her slender fingers and said, "Emily, what do you think I want to do?"

As soon as Tina took off her mask, Emily's eyes caught sight of the half beautiful, half ugly horror. That was Tina's face. Emily's instincts kicked in, as she stepped back with fear and disgust. Her eyes opened wide.

"Your face..." said Emily. How did Tina's face become like this?

Scorned and furious, Tina yanked Emily's arms instantly, humiliated by the way Emily looked at her. Tina glared at Emily with eyes wide open as if her could shoot poisonous needless at any moment.

"My face! You are to blame for my face!" cried Tina as she shook Emily crazily and frantically.

Emily felt threatened by Tina's unhinged behavior. She tried hard to suppress her fears and pushed Tina with all her strength.

Tina took a few steps back before she lost her balance and tumbled backwards, caught off guard by Emily's push. Instead of getting up immediately, she glared at Emily from the ground. Driven mad with rage, Tina began to act hysterically at the sight of her enemy.

"Emily! I wish I could rip your face off, pull your sinews out, crush your skull and drink your blood!" said Tina.

Even that, Tina thought, would not be enough to satiate the flames of her hatred towards Emily.

Tina never hated anyone as much as she hated Emily. She would willingly pay any price, to destroy Emily's life.

"Tina! You are crazy!" said Emily.

Emily took a few steps back and stood her ground firmly. She gasped, with her hand on her chest and glared back at Tina indignantly.

"I am crazy? By the time I am done with you, you will wish you were crazy!" Tina said, as she tilted her face, exposing her facial wounds to Emily.

Tina's once beautiful face was now covered with burn marks, a frightful juxtaposition of red and black. Some parts of her face were burnt so severely that the red veins under the skin could be seen clearly as if the protective layer of her skin had been completely destroyed.

The fire was unforgiving towards Tina.

An arrogant, entitled person like Tina found it hard to accept that she was the one who had suffered such great pain.

However, the wicked will not go unpunished, and at some point, people will get what they deserve, eventually.

As a result, Emily didn't show any sympathy for Tina. "You asked for it! It is you who destroyed yourself. You had such a good life, but you just wasted it on the wrong things. That's such a pity!" said Emily.

"Do you think that you can be better than me?" asked Tina maliciously, as she stood up slowly.

Emily understood that Tina had lost her sanity after suffering through such a traumatic event in her life. She knew that Tina could never see her own faults because her mind only had room for hatred and resentment.

Emily soon came to the conclusion that things would only become worse if she kept arguing with Tina.

Emily tried to make a run for it when Tina wasn't looking. But before Emily could run, Tina pounced on her like a tiger. She had something in her hand that she was pointing towards Emily.

It was a transparent syringe loaded with some kind of liquid, that glistened at the top of the needle!
