Emma River was momentarily taken aback, then instantly understood Keira Leaf's meaning. Her eyes flashed with ferocity, but it was quickly drowned out as she pleaded, "I beg you to come to your senses! I'm kneeling to you; just this once let me go, and I will disappear from your life forever! Felicity, please grant me a chance to live, will you?"
Emma River knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her cheeks, her voice becoming increasingly choked up. She disregarded the surrounding onlookers' stares and even began kowtowing publicly.
Keira Leaf did not turn around and instead stared at the faraway river, a touch of desolation flashing through her eyes.
Why couldn't she believe that she had once truly respected and trusted her as her own mother?
Keira Leaf sighed softly, "It's time to end this."
Mom, grandmother, I have finally sought justice for you and can now give you an explanation.
