Chapter 18

Emma frowned, thinking, ‘Why would Mrs. Baker want m

her office in the morning? Does she know about me and Liam already?’

Jack felt worried and followed up.

Emma got to the office, only to see Elijah’s parents were already there, looking haggard.

When Madeline saw Emma, she walked up to Emma in a hurry and said, “Emma, you were right about Aria. She lied to us.”

It was a severe blow for Elijah’s parents to replace out that Aris’s baby was not Elijah’s. And now Elijah had been convicted of malicious drug abuse and was facing license suspension and jail time.

“Emma, Elijah is not a bad guy. He must be brainwashed by Aria. Can you please tell the truth to the police? Don’t put Elijah in jail!” Madeline begged.

Emma did not expect to see them here, unhappily frowned, and directly walked toward the door.

“Emma!” Madeline yelled.

“Elijah did what he did. Why do you talk like he’s so innocent? He and Aria deserve to go to jail,” said Emma. She had no patience with the Taylor family since Elijah murdered her in her previous life.

As Emma’s words fell, Madeline screamed out of control. “What do you mean he deserves it? My son has been excellent since he was a child. He wouldn’t have ended up in jail if he hadn’t met you and your sister. You, your sisters, and your mom, all the women in your family are

**s! Shameless bi**s!”

At first, Emma was pretty chill, but when Madeline mentioned her mom, Emma got really upset and almost slapped her. But then, out of nowhere, Emma noticed this weird light that distracted her. Elijah’s dad, Michael Taylor, wore a tie clip on his collar that didn’t match his

shirt.

Emma frowned and stepped forward, yanking the clip off his collar.

“What are” you doing?” Michael asked with a guilty conscience.

Emma held the clip and played with it in her hand for a while, then with a smile on her red lips, she coldly looked askance at him, “Playing a

little trick here, huh? Is this a pinhole camera?”

It turned out that Madeline and Michael came here today to provoke her. They had just said those words on purpose, wanting her to go physical, and then they would secretly film her and post it online. Michael studied psychology, and Emma had almost fallen for it just now.

“What are you talking about? What pinhole camera? It’s just a tie clip. Give it back to me!” said Michael.

Emma scoffed and tossed the clip on the ground, crushing it beneath her foot. “Think you can use this to frame me? You’re way off the mark!”

After Emma finished speaking, she took out her cell phone and started recording. “Come on, repeat what you guys just said. Your son is

accused of drug abuse and attempted rape. The police have arrested him, and you guys are trying to threaten me to get him acquitted. Mr. Michael, as a post-doctoral, is this how you educated your son? Tell us, how did you become a professor? Did you get it by improper means

like this, too?”

“Bullshit! Stop recording me, b**h! Put your phone away, or I’m gonna kill you,” Madeline yelled and attacked Emma like crazy.

Emma, however, dodged her attack and turned her phone to Madeline. “This woman is even more hilarious. She didn’t have the time to

teach her son to be a decent man. Instead, she came to my school and went nuts. Come and take a look. What a rascally family!” After saying that, Emma directly posted the video online.

Chapter 18

“Go to hell!” Madeline yelled, picked up a vase, and smashed it toward Emma’s head.

However, right then, a large hand suddenly pulled her backward. Someone stepped in front of her, and the vase smashed into his head. In an instant, blood dripped, and its smell filled the air.

“Jack?” Emma looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.

Jack’s face turned pale as he covered his wound and spoke with difficulty. “Emma, are you alright?”

Emma turned to look at Madeline, her eyes burning with indelible rage. “Like parents, like children. Enjoy your family reunion in the jail.”

Seeing Emma with Liam was a hard blow for Jack, but when he saw Madeline attack Emma with the vase, he still couldn’t help but stand up

for her.

Jack was severely injured. Emma took him to the infirmary. On the way, Jack was dizzy and stumbled, and his wounds continued to bleed. It took Emma a great effort to get him to the infirmary.

When the doctor was treating Jack, Emma suddenly thought of Liam. He couldn’t tolerate her doing anything behind his back, so in case people deliberately stirred things up between them, it would be better for her to tell Liam everything herself. Emma walked outside the infirmary office and sent a message to Liam.

[Elijah’s parents came to school and made a scene. Jack got injured for saving me. I’m now with him in the infirmary. I’ll leave after he’s strapped up. Don’t worry. I won’t cross the line. Kiss!]

After sending it out, Emma let out a sigh of relief. ‘That’ll do,’ thought Emma.

The one thing Emma wanted to do the most after coming back to this world was to treat Liam well. She tried to protect him from any harm.

Emma returned to the infirmary. The doctor was already bandaging Jack. Emma sighed. “Thanks, but don’t do it again. It’ll be a pity if your smart brain gets hurt.”

Jack was embarrassed and scratched his head, “No big deal. As long as you’re fine.”

Emma pursed her lips, remembering how Jack had become her nemesis after feeling offended by her in her previous life. He was powerful, and during a mission in Africa, he almost got her killed. Thinking about it still made her feel a bit scared. Unexpectedly, she had solved this tricky problem, which was a big relief for her.

Emma sat aside and waited patiently, but within minutes, the door swung open. Upon seeing the visitor, she sprang to her feet and asked, “Why are you here?”

Liam’s car hadn’t driven far, and when he heard that Emma was alone in a room with Jack, he rushed back. He glanced at Jack and said to Emma, “Come with me.”

Emma excused herself to Jack and quickly followed Liam outside the infirmary. She stood behind Liam. “Mr. Hall…”
