Emily was spooked by his gaze, taking a deep breath, "You didn't do anything wrong. I'm the one who owes you!"
"Don't play innocent with me!" Charlie suddenly grabbed her shoulders, his face stern, "If you really feel guilty, treat me right. Stop trying to dodge your duty! I won't let anyone who crosses me off the hook easily!"
Emily winced at his grip but didn't dare to dodge. She stared at him, "Fine, I won't dodge. I'll do whatever you say, but at least give me a deadline!"
"Deadline?" Charlie scoffed, "You actually have the nerve to make demands! Is a lifetime enough? Or maybe, when I get married, have kids, and live a happy life, I might forget the unpleasantness you caused me, and then you can rest easy!"
Emily shivered involuntarily. Why had Charlie, whom she once trusted and respected, become so terrifying?
Charlie finally let her go and sat back down, giving her a cold glance.
"You make me sick!"
Emily trembled, looking pale, but gradually regained her composure. She sat up straight, looking out the window, feeling engulfed by darkness.
That's alright! She would repay her debt. Then, she could finally relax.
Even if her life no longer had love or affection, She still had Kya and she still had Estelle.
The car started again. Charlie seemed to have vented all his anger and didn't say anything else, driving her back to Sunset Ridge.
He parked the car. Ms. Simmons and Kya were coming out of the building. Kya was on her scooter, apparently about to go out and play.
Seeing Kya, Emily instinctively tensed up.
Charlie also saw them. He hadn't seen Kya for several days and felt somewhat indescribable at the sight.
