"What are you going to do? What's that in your hand?" asked Emily, feeling threatened.
Emily wanted to run to the side to parry Tina's attack when she realized that there was a syringe in Tina's hand.
However, Tina yanked Emily's hand with all her strength and scoffed, "What's in my hand? Well, I've got something you are going to enjoy very much!"
Tina locked her menacing eyes at Emily and gave her a wicked smile. She then raised the syringe, ready to inject Emily's arm with some kind of liquid.
Emily shook like a leaf. She felt the blood chill in her veins, as the fear sent a shiver from the top of her head, down to the soles of her feet.
Anyone could guess that the liquid in the syringe was definitely not a good thing.
When the needle was alarmingly close to her skin, Emily shook Tina's hand off with all her strength and grabbed the hand that was holding the syringe.
"Tina! Are you crazy? Help! Somebody help me, please!" Emily cried out for help as she barely fought off Tina.
Even an extremely notorious criminal was nothing compared to a raging lunatic who had nothing to lose.
Given the current circumstances, Emily knew that she was no match for Tina, who was a frenzied lunatic. Emily was certain that if no one came and stopped Tina, she would do something terrible to her.
"Save your breath, Emily. I've observed this road for a few days. No one is going to pass by here at this time," said Tina, as she stared at Emily with the intent to kill. Once again, Tina drew back the syringe and tried to go for Emily's skin.
If only Tina could inject the chemical in the syringe into Emily, the woman she hated most in the world would meet a fate far worse than death.
The both of them were fighting for their lives. The one who would fail to hold on would be the loser.
Emily struggled, as she wasn't strong enough to fight off Tina. The tip of the needle drew closer with each passing second, as Emily started sweating profusely. "Tina, calm down! There must be another way to solve the problems between us!" urged Emily.
"Huh? Emily, are you scared?" asked Tina as her smile grew increasingly wicked. She added, "If you are scared, beg for your life! Just like that day when you knelt down in front of me like a sad dog and wiped my shoes."
Emily got irritated with Tina's insulting behavior, so she said, "You want me to beg to you?
Dream on! I'll bet that's all you think about."
Tina gritted her teeth. The veins on her forehead started popping out, as she applied more force. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Even if you don't want to admit it, I clearly remember what a lowly woman you are..." Tina said with disdain.
"Lowly?" Baffled, Emily looked at her and sneered.
Tina's face became scarier. It seemed like her eyes were going to pop out of their sockets, as she widened her eyes at Emily's arrogance. "What are you laughing at? I'm going to pull out that silver tongue of yours and wipe your tears with it!" yelled Tina.
"What am I laughing at? Obviously, I am laughing at you! You said that I am a lowly bitch only because you disdained my poor birth," sneered Emily. She made fun of the ridiculous woman in front of her, and continued, "But now, I am the real daughter of the Tao family, and you... You are the daughter of the Bai family! Your name should be Tina Bai!"
"Shut up! Bitch!" Tina screamed her lungs out. Tina shook with anger and said, "I'm not Tina Bai!"
She would never be the daughter of the Bai family! How could she be the daughter of a lowly family? How could she have such shameful parents?
Tina wouldn't admit it! Tina wouldn't accept it!
"You're still living in blissful denial. Is there any point in living a lie? If you are not Tina Bai, then who is? Do you still believe that you are Tina Tao? Don't be ridiculous!"
said Emily, with the intention of irritating Tina. Emily was observing Tina's reaction.
Just as Emily had expected, Tina felt offended and she went totally berserk, raging pandemonium. "If you dare speak like that again, I will split your jaw apart! Bitch! You whoring bitch!" cried Tina.
