Chapter 341 Who Is Being Impolite (2/2)

'Wait, a kid? Is it the kid that Emily had at that time?' Jacob wondered.

Confused and kind of excited, Jacob let his mind carry him away in deep thoughts of the kid.

The next day, in the afternoon, Emily was busy with her work in her office.

”Mr. Hess is one of the organizers of the Starry Night, and he is also one of the judges. He is an authoritative figure, but he is very strict,” Emily's assistant reported all the information she had gathered.

Emily lowered her eyes, but she didn't show any emotions. ”That's what I want. I appreciate those who are strict,” Emily said flatly.

Emily knew that the stricter the judges were, the fairer the competition was. Emily didn't want to win the competition by disgraceful means, so the thought of a strict judge gave her the confidence and assurance she needed.

”Schedule an appointment with Mr. Hess as soon as possible,” Emily ordered.

”Yes, Miss Cloris,” answered the assistant.

As soon as Emily's assistant left the office, Emily's cell phone rang. She hesitated a bit after noticing the unfamiliar number on the screen.

Nonetheless, she didn't think about it too much and answered the phone. A familiar voice from the other side of the call rung in her head.

”Emily, do you still remember me?” asked the woman on the phone.

Emily could never forget Tina's voice, as if it were a curse she could never get rid of. Tina's voice was affectedly sweet, but also cold and sharp like a sinister viper. It lingered in Emily's mind and never dissipated.

”Yes,” Emily answered coldly.

Of course Emily still remembered her! Not only did she remember Tina, she also remembered how brutally she had murdered her foster parents and how she insidiously planned to kill her! All the resentment Emily had bottled up for years was beginning to resurface.

”We haven't seen each other for many years. How about we meet for lunch or coffee?” Tina asked, sounding just like her old self.

”Sure! Why not?” Emily answered instantly as she was curious to know what Tina's intentions were.
