Chapter 202: Wasn't a Happy End

"Emily..." 

Crist called out her name but his voice quivered because of the emotions that had suddenly taken over him.

He wasn't prepared for her questions and explanations and hearing her words was making him feel worse for treating her so coldly just because of the bet.

Just because they all were hurt and angry because of her actions, they completely forgot to think about her feelings.

They were just angry because she decided to leave but none of them ever tried to find out the actual reason for which she left. And now when it was time for the revelation, he felt like none of them was prepared for it. 

"What do you mean? Why would you even feel the need of protecting us? And from whom were you trying to protect us?" 

"ME! I WAS TRYING TO PROTECT YOU GUYS FROM ME!" 

Emily's sudden cry silenced Simon as he stared at his sister in surprise. Her words repeating in his brain as he tried to understand exactly what she meant.
