From Ruin She Rose novel Chapter 330

Chapter 330

Emily finally got a good look at her surroundings. It seemed to be a remote construction site, with building rubble everywhere and not a single person in sight.

Emily was tied to a chair. The way she was tied up was a method she was familiar with. The person standing in front of her was also someone she knew all too well.

It was such an ordinary face; so plain you’d never pick it out in a crowd. But Emily was too familiar with this face.

At St. Gabriel Reform Academy, whenever a student stepped out of line, it was the teachers who laid down the punishment. The person standing in front of her was one of the many teachers who used to keep them in line.

Even though Emily had already guessed who it was the moment she caught that familiar whiff of sedative, actually seeing him standing there made a surge of fear well up inside her, completely out of her control.

After leaving St. Gabriel Reform Academy, she’d told herself again and again: Don’t be afraid of that place anymore. You’re never going back there again. But that kind of fear wasn’t something she could just banish with a few words of reassurance.

Emily fought to keep her composure, but she still couldn’t stop a trace of fear from showing on her face.

Brady noticed and sneered, “How long has it been since I last saw that look on your face? Makes me miss those days.”

Emily’s face remained taut as she stared at him without a hint of emotion. “What do you want?”

Brady stepped forward. “What do you think I want?” He reached out and clamped his hand around Emily’s chin, squeezing so hard it felt like he might shatter her jaw.

“Number Ten, have you been living an easy life for so long that you’ve forgotten the terms we set for letting you go?” Brady asked.

Emily hadn’t forgotten. The only reason St. Gabriel Reform Academy let her walk free was because she promised to keep secrets and never talk about what went on inside those walls.
