You Faked Your Deaths to Punish Me?! That’s Illegal, Family! novel Chapter 78

Chapter 5

The next Friday, Jake locked Emily in the boys’ bathroom and dumped a bucket of filthy mop water on her.

“Guess you’re staying here all weekend!” he laughed, ignoring her begging.

Emily pleaded, crying about her grandparents waiting for her, how worried they’d be.

Jake didn’t care.

Eventually, she stopped begging.

When he left, I stepped out from the shadows.

I unlocked the stall and found her curled up, soaked and sobbing.

When she saw me, she broke down, clutching at me.

“Please, ma’am, help me. Please…”

I wiped her face gently.

“Emily, you have to help yourself.”

I wasn’t a savior.

After my daughter’s death, revenge was the only thing I lived for.

The only person who could save Emily… was Emily.

Her sobbing slowed. She looked up at me.

I handed her my number.

“Call me when you’re ready.”

This time, I knew she wouldn’t run.

A few days later, my phone rang.

Emily had decided.

She wanted revenge.

I smiled. The show was about to begin.

When she came to my place, I was ready with makeup and tools.

I needed to know if she could really do this.

I sat her down in front of a mirror, transforming her face.

An hour later, Emily stared at her reflection in shock.

Jake froze.

“Wh-who are you?”

Right on cue, Emily pressed the recorder in her pocket.

And my daughter’s voice echoed through the hall.

“Jake Miller… how could you not know who I am?”

“My body’s so cold underground… come keep me company…”

Her crying voice filled the silence, sending chills down the hall.

Jake screamed and bolted, slipping on the lubricant I’d spread.

He tumbled, scrambled, screamed again as Emily walked closer.

Finally, he fell down the stairs, his ankle snapping at a sick angle.

Even through the pain, he tried to bark at her.

“Why you? Out of everyone, why do I only pick on you?”

“Must be something wrong with you, huh? You were just born unlucky!”

Emily didn’t say a word. She just stood above him, glaring down.

Jake pissed himself before blacking out.

When it was over, Emily slipped away, just like I taught her.

Hours later, she “found” Jake unconscious and called security.

Doctors said his ankle was shattered.

His mind wasn’t much better-ranting about ghosts, about my daughter.

No one believed him. Everyone thought he’d cracked under pressure.

Meanwhile, Emily kept playing the scared little mouse.

Jake’s parents, though… they weren’t fooled.

They called me and asked to meet at a coffee shop.
