A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 205

Emily couldn't believe what Debby just said. It was absolutely ridiculous! But she didn't say anything.

Was Tina really her younger sister? How could that be?

Debby continued explaining, "You are both my beloved daughters, and that is the truth. I am sorry I have not told you before..." she sobbed, those words coming out with difficulty. "Your father and I... Well, we owe Tina too much. I was young and scared when I gave her away. Maybe you cannot understand me now, but maybe one day you will. You are sisters and I love you both. Emily, forgive me, please."

Emily stared at her incredulously, "Is... Is that the truth mom?" For one second, Emily thought she would faint away. Not only Tina was her sister, but also her mother had lied to her for such a long time. It was very difficult for Emily to accept all of this.

Who would've ever thought that the woman that persecuted her for so long, that tortured her parents was eventually her sister?

It was a real shame that things went in this way. Maybe Tina and Emily could have been friends, or at least get along better. But what now? Should they act as two sisters? It was impossible to even think about it. Emily would never forget what Tina did to her.

With the same gentle expression, Debby said, "Emily, I won't tell anything to Tina. Don't worry. For everybody else you are still my only daughter and I will always love you more than anyone... I don't care if you do not get along with Tina, but do not hurt yourselves, and do not hate her. Try this at least."

Emily looked at her mother understandingly. Her eyes were fixed on her for a while. They were a mirror of a struggling soul, fighting between a mixture of opposite emotions. Then Emily spoke, "Mom. I don't want to hurt her, but she does. She told me that she wants either to kill me or die trying. I am scared, and all I can do is to let the troubles away from me."

Of course, it was not really that simple. Emily could not just stay away from Tina. Those things she did to her were unforgettable.

In addition, Tina was crazier than ever and even if she knew that Emily was her sister, she would not care.

"Well, that's enough. Thank you so much... Ah, one last thing. I hope that we can keep this secret. After all, your sister is doing fine without us. We should let her live her life," said Debby.

Emily closed her eyes for a few seconds. When she opened them again, they looked much more relaxed than before, "Don't worry. My lips are sealed," said Emily.

Debby looked immensely relieved when she heard this. She gently touched Emily's face, but Emily stopped her hand. Debby felt embarrassed, "Emily, I understand if you can't forgive me."

"No, I..." Emily bit her inferior lip nervously and said, "I just need some time to accept it, Mom. Now it is late, and you should go to sleep. Please, leave me alone."

Then, Emily got up on her feet and walked out of the room.

Debby didn't try to stop her. Actually, she was happy to finish this theatric. Luckily, Emily didn't realize that there was something wrong in the story that her mother told her; she was too shocked to notice. It was better to stop this right now and in this way, otherwise if Debby were to keep talking something could slip out of her mouth and Emily was not stupid enough to fall for it again.

Debby then said, "Alright then. Goodnight, Emily. Go to bed early."

"I will, mom," answered Emily.

When Emily was out of the room she headed for a safe and quiet place to get herself together.

Emily was about to walk downstairs when a strong arm wrapped around her slim waist.

Emily yelled out loud, but apparently, there wasn't anyone else there. Then a deep male voice whispered in her ear, "Who is this little girl going out alone at night? Watch out for the wolf."

She turned around and smiled sensually, "You mean I should watch out for you, big bad wolf?"

"Oh, you unmasked me! Then, now that you know my real identity, I'll just carry on and do what I am here for," Jacob grinned, then lifted Emily on his shoulder and walked directly into his room.

Emily was not in the mood to keep this game going on, plus she was uncomfortable on Jacob's shoulder. So, she threw kicks into the air struggling to get down.

Jacob slapped Emily on her bum and said, "Don't resist."
