“Miss Arya, how long would you stare at me?” The voice gave a shock to her. The woman seated next to her is no other person but the mighty Emily.
The legend was not false at all. Arya felt inferior to the woman opposite her.
Emily was rumored as a mighty goddess who feared nothing even death. Her works and success stretched round the whole of Beijing under a day and increased when it was confirmed she had her first male child with None other than the century-old prince, Ling Yuting.

“Surprised?” Emily grinned when she saw Arya's fears. She loved it when they all feared her.
Arya cleared her throat and hid her emotion. It could be said that Emily does not just meet up with any commoner on the street, hence, she tried to think of a reasonable reason why she would be invited by her.

“What do you want from me?”

“Aren't you curious to know what happened to your mother and her death and the culprit?” Her voice returned cold as the air temperature dropped drastically.
Arya unconsciously gripped the hem of her skirt and bit her lips. She was under pressure.
The culprit of her mother's death had always been her main target and swore to get even with him or her.
She tried every connection to go deeper into the incident years ago but always fell in a bottomless pit.

“What about my mother?”
She waited for a response but to her dismay, Emily kept sipping her latte and examining the girl.
Arya felt nervous being stared at by Emily. A chilly breeze ran through her spine. They were indeed true!
A glance from the mighty Emily could send one to an early grave. Arya buried the frosty glare from her and focused on knowing the truth.

“An interesting fact. ”
She grinned more as she reached for an Autopsy result and pushed it to her.

“I know she died when shot but by who?!” The anxiety was eating deep into her and she did not like to be in suspense.
She hated the fucking eagerness that flowed in her brain. Her knuckles tightened up as a video of the last nine years played.
She could not hold the tears in again. It flowed on her cream cheeks. Her fingers were balled tighter as she wiped off the tears.
It did not make sense at all! She died while protecting Alexa. Her heart was pounded into powder. Her face was all covered in tears.
She spoke up when the video went off. Her hands reached for her cheeks and wiped the tears off. She said with her raspy voice.

“I can't believe it. ” Her statement came out not as a doubt but a disagreement.
Her mother was never that selfish to leave her behind just to save someone else's life!

“What is there not to believe? The image, audio, or video?” Without patience, she sneered.
It took a whole week to dig deep into this past year's event and she refused to believe it?
During those weekdays, her hands were filled with busy work and also digging up the past.
She looked at the weakling in front of her who kept pouring tears from her eyes.

“I will give you another chance. To start a new chapter and to avenge your mother's death.”
Her simple words raised Arya's head. It did not make any sense to her again.
Was she here to make sure Arya learned of her mother's death or for another motive?
She was totally confused!

“You are going to do that?”

“I will unless you get rid of Alexa. We both have a common pest that bugs our peace and we are both ready to get rid of it. ”
She pushes alongside the tape which was played and a huge sum of money.

“I will get you on that show or a better show. ” She watches her expression.
Emily grinned in her heart. The tales about Emily we're never mistaken. She was a stone-hearted woman who cared nothing but benefits.
Using other people's weakness against them was all Emily's trick and as expected it worked perfectly.
Arya gritted her teeth at the memory of how her mother was shot because of the devil.

“I do not want any benefits from you. Helping you get rid of her for eternity is all I need ” Arya Stood up after wiping off her tears with a tissue.

“I knew you won't let anyone trample over you!”
