The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 348

Emma pulled out the knife and stabbed Cindy again, her voice seething with hatred. "I hate you! It's all because of the son you raised! If he hadn't said he wanted to have a taste of Sophia, I wouldn't have let him violate her!

"Cindy, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself!"

Emma gritted her teeth. "Sky can't die! If I kill you—if I just kill you—Sophia will let me take him to the hospital!"

"Ms. Emma…" Cindy's shocked expression faded into bitterness. She reached out, trying to touch Emma's face, but Emma took a step back, avoiding her hand.

"Cindy, just die already! You raised Shane, a rapist—you're no better than him!" Emma spat out the words through clenched teeth. "If you want to blame someone, blame yourself."

"Ms. Emma… Ah!"

Cindy collapsed to the ground, her expression a mix of sorrow and despair. But Emma didn't spare her another glance.

"Sophia! I've killed Cindy. Now you can let me take Sky and leave, right? I need to get him to a hospital!"

Emma suddenly calmed down, her gaze locked onto Sophia, her voice trembling with rage. "If you don't let me take him, I'll kill you, and then I'll kill myself."

Sophia let out a laugh and pulled out her phone, making a call. "Open the door."

The door was unlocked from the outside. Supporting the weakened Sky, Emma staggered toward the exit.

"Emma…" Sky's weak voice called out to her. "Emma, leave me behind. Go."

"No." Emma's tears fell uncontrollably. "I won't leave you behind."

"Sky, why were you so foolish? Why did you listen to Sophia? You killed Shane—what are you going to do now? I can't let anything happen to you. I won't let anything happen to you."

Crying as she walked, Emma continued to support Sky toward the door.

Behind them, Sophia applauded.

"Sky, Emma, your sibling bond is truly touching. But did you really think I would let you leave so easily?"

"Sophia Sinclair!" Emma spun around, fury blazing in her eyes. "What more do you want? If we wait any longer, Sky will die! And what does that have to do with me?"

Sophia laughed, madness creeping into her expression. "If he dies, I'll be happy. And if you die too, I'll be even happier. But just letting you die like this, that would be too easy for you."

"Hehehe!" It was as if something inside Sophia snapped—her entire being seemed to radiate insanity.

"Emma, we're all going to hell together! Let Sky go ahead first. You were siblings in this life—maybe if you plead with Reaper, he will let both of you be a couple in death."

Sophia laughed wildly, her laughter eerie and chilling. She took a step forward, grabbed Emma's hair, and yanked her off balance with barely any effort.

Then, she forced Emma's hand around the knife she had used to kill Cindy and guided it to stab herself, just slightly off from her heart.

"Ahhh—!" Emma screamed, terrified by Sophia's insane behavior.

Sophia's smile deepened. "Emma, you're going to die!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up her phone and, without hesitation, dialed the emergency authorities.

"Hello? Help, someone is trying to kill me! Please! Save me—save me! Ah!" Sophia let out a chilling scream as Emma knocked the phone out of her hands.

"Sophia, you're insane! You've completely lost your mind!"

Emma stared in horror at the blood spreading across Sophia's chest, then turned and bolted in fear.

"Emma, don't run!" Sky's weak voice stopped her just in time. "Don't panic—call an ambulance right away."
