A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 1512

"Well, I hurt my fingers, not my hands," Estelle declared. Even though she thought that Ethan was making it a bigger deal than it actually was, she was still sweet about it. She casually ate the fruit and continued to watch the show.

"You are just like Emily, you know that? She found out that the HT Group is making jewelry again, so she went back to work immediately. You find out that I cook, so you stay by my side to help me. Both of you liked to help your men."

Ethan was joking, of course. He thought that Estelle was only half-listening to his words anyway. However, Estelle's eyes went wide and her smile faltered. She couldn't believe it. "Wait, Emily went back to Love and Dream?" she asked to clarify.

"Yes, it's her first day back to work today. She's in much better condition now, I heard," Ethan replied.

Estelle didn't pay attention to the rest of the things he said. All she could focus on was the fact that she had wronged Emily before. Now that Emily was back to Love and Dream, Estelle knew that this could be her chance to make amends for her previous actions towards Emily. "I'll go there too then," she announced with a firm tone.

"You're going to Love and Dream?" Ethan walked up to her and saw her expression. He knew that she was serious about it. "You and Emily… Have you considered any other options?" he asked.

Estelle shook her head slightly. In her perspective, she didn't need to think about it. There were no other options. She had to go there to make amends.

On the second day, Estelle immediately went straight to Love and Dream for her interview. Most of the people in the company already knew who she was. When they recognized her, their expressions turned sour. It was as if they were seeing a monster.

"Miss Bai, a candidate specifically requested you to be their interviewer," one of the employees notified Emily, who was busy reviewing the design drafts. She looked up with an arched brow and said, "We have the HR department for that kind of thing. You can ask the people from there to be the interviewers."

"It's me."

Recognizing the familiar voice, Emily looked up immediately. Her eyes went wide when she saw Estelle's face; it was as if she was seeing her nightmare come to life. Emily's hand, which was holding a pen tightly, started to tremble. She pretended to be calm, but her voice was shaky as she spoke, "What are you doing here? Are you going to tell me that Love and Dream is plagiarizing again?"

Seeing Estelle made Emily feel like she re-opened a scar and exposed a deep and bloody wound. When she saw Emily's pained expression, Estelle's guilt grew. She pursed her lips and said, "Emily…"

"Don't say my name so casually," Emily told her with a scowl.

"Miss Bai, I want to work for Love and Dream once more. I made a mistake before, but this time, I…"

"Stop!" Hearing this, Emily couldn't stand to listen to Estelle anymore. She interrupted her and coldly hissed, "Are you seriously trying to apply for Love and Dream? Don't make me laugh. Did you forget what you did to Love and Dream before? You once said that my company copied the works of other companies. Now, you want to get interviewed for a job? Miss Wang, maybe you should get your brain checked because you're not making a lot of sense right now."

As Emily ranted sarcastically to her, Estelle couldn't seem to find the right words to say. She took all the blame and accepted Emily's harsh words. She bowed her head. "It's all my fault, I admit that. I was in a bad place at that time and felt like I had no other choice. I can't ask you to forgive me for those mistakes. I just want to come back to Love and Dream so that I can at least make up for what I've done,"

Estelle explained in a cracked voice. She was sincere and humble as she apologized to her.

Emily curled her lips into a smug smirk. If a person could betray others once, then they would definitely do it again if they had the chance. "You can leave now. This place is too small to accept someone like you." Memories of what had happened started to come back to Emily like she was in a flashback. She recalled how much she had trusted Estelle in the past, how disappointed she had been after Estelle betrayed her, and how much pain Estelle had caused her. All of the things Estelle had done was like a big slap across Emily's face.

"Miss Bai!" Teary-eyed, Estelle explained further, "I was really being threatened at that time. On top of that, my father was also seriously ill when it happened. I was left with no choice but to agree. I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I just want another chance so I can make amends." She voiced out all her hardships during that time and begged for forgiveness.

"It's just not possible. There's no excuse for what you did," Emily said coldly. However, she couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Estelle. It seemed that she had been really suffering at that time. However, Emily couldn't just pretend that it hadn't happened. It had caused her too much pain to forget so easily.
