Chapter 123 Privilege (1/2)

”Do you recognize who it is? I bet I don't need to introduce this person to you since you're obviously quite familiar with him,” said Tina. She laughed hysterically and hid the phone behind her when Emily tried to take the phone.

Emily bit her lip tightly, failing to keep the calmness in her face together. The burden of a nightmare from many years ago fell on her heart once again, Emily stuttered,”How did you... get this video...”

”If you don't want people to know about it, you'd better listen to me,” said Tina, as she slowly put her phone back in her handbag, and hummed dismissively,”Your stuff can be easily found as long as I want to.”

With a hateful expression on her face, Tina continued,”Would Jacob still love you if I spread this video to the public to let everybody know just what kind of person you truly are?”

Tina's words hit Emily like a lightning bolt, sending shockwaves throughout her entire body, causing her to tremble with fear.

Emily bit her lip so hard that it almost bled, making it difficult for her to speak out. She weakly murmured,”You... What do you want exactly?”

There was no denying the fact that Emily was just clutching at straws, fearing the alternative.

Petrified with crippling fear, Emily was worried about her past getting exposed to the public. She did not want to relive her nightmare all over again, followed by the hatred and resentment from the people around her...

No, she couldn't let anyone else know. No matter what the cost was!

”Here's the deal. From now on you have to listen to me and stay within the boundaries of your status. Do not dare to dream of the things you should never dream of. If you comply, perhaps I may even help you to cover up the truth; understood?” asserted Tina.

”... Yes.” Emily had too much to lose. She had no other choice but to agree to what Tina was asking, because the secret that Tina was holding was powerful enough to destroy everything Emily had worked for.

”So you agree?” Tina winked her eyes at Emily and said,”I thought you had integrity, but I was wrong about you.”

Speechless, Emily clenched her fists while staring at the ground, trembling with rage.

”Now that you have agreed...” Tina laughed delightfully with pure satisfaction. Looking at the lost soul in front of her, she demanded,”My shoes are really dirty. Why don't you help me clean it, hmm?”
