Chapter 39

• *Emily
• The car belongs to my mother. I can't believe it! She tried to kill me! She's the one who hit me! What did I do wrong to make her hate me so much? Why didn't she ever love me? I can't hold back the sobs that fill the room. André takes me in his arms, whispers soft words to calm me and I thank him for it. He manages to calm me in no time at all. After a few minutes, he pulls me away from him and wipes away the tears that are still running down my cheeks.
• "Are you sure it was your mother?" he asks.
