Emma smiled patting her chest. There was no need for her to worry. She has a way to handle that too.

She can implicate Scarlett without saying it directly.

Of the nearly hundred recordings she had saved under the name Scarlett, she searched for that particular recording when Scarlett talked about the planter and sent it to Jeremy. Her lips curved as he read that message immediately too.

As always, he can't help it!

After making sure she gave enough time for him to listen to it, she called him. Before she called, she made sure she drank a sip of water and didn't swallow all of it, and left some at the throat.

It's to give an effect that she has a lump in her throat that she cannot swallow, after seeing that horrendous scene, duh!

Her lips curved to a smile as he answered her call within three rings.

And so it begins!

"Jerry... Jerry...

" she sniffed. She had to pinch the tip of her nose to have tears from her eyes.

"Emma..? Are you okay?

" Jeremy's voice was soft.

Yeah, the same concern... It's all worth it!

"Did...did you see that..? I...

" she stuttered as if she was in shock.

"I did...

" Jeremy's voice was low.

"Where are you now..?

"

"I am shocked, Jerry... Scar... she... she actually...

"

"Emma, where are you?

" Jeremy's voice was still low.

Emma was sinking in her act. She couldn't help but think that she'd have fared pretty well as an actor. She even tried hard and did all kinds of surgeries to resemble a top actress.

If she could, I can too... Maybe I should try to do an audition...

"Jerry...It was a grave... A baby's grave... Scar... she...Oh my God! Jerlina, Jerry... Jerlina, she... Did you tell her? She... she'd be devas-

"

"Emma...

" Jeremy interjected her once more.

In the hospital, Scarlett watched the security footage from her home with a smirk.

Their home is protected by cameras all around and she set up a motion detector camera pointing right at her door, with a clear view of Jerlina's planter.

Well, she did go on a little more cautious route and set two cameras to have a view of the planter – the planter from Jerlina's garden.

Jerlina's baby grave? It is safe inside Jerlina's room. The temperature is dipping and roses would be much safer indoors, anyway!

Was she sure Emma would try and destroy a planter said to be a baby's grave?

Of course!

She is someone who pinches a sleeping baby. Destroying a baby's grave won't be a long stretch from there...

She knew it would only be a matter of time. And she knew she'd succeed. She was using Emma's techniques on her anyway. And she is pretty vulnerable and separate right now and she'd go to any extremes.

And Emma didn't disappoint anyway.

When she got a notification, she thought Jeremy's dogs might have triggered the camera. But she was in for a surprise. Scarlett watched as Emma started to stare at the planter but then when she started doing what she did, she felt her heart pound.

When Scarlett looked at her hands, she found them to be shaking.

How can she do this? She thinks that it is a baby's grave and she...

She's evil! That b*tch! She's a psycho!

Scarlett couldn't even watch it in full. She made sure it is getting recorded and she took a walk. Her stomach hurt. She wanted to throw up.

Emma's face...

She's possessed by the devil!

She took a walk and came back after twenty minutes. Emma was still there. She fixed the soil to erase any traces of her and started to take pictures.

Scarlett smirked.

So I am going to be your victim, huh?

Too bad... I am wiser than you!

I knew you recorded me... But I have video footage!

Guess who'll win?

Scarlett sat in front of the laptop and started to edit the video. She had a good view with two cameras after all. She felt sick watching that footage, but she just made sure she cut the footage to the appropriate length and stored it in her phone.

As she was reviewing the footage, she heard her saying something. One of the cameras had picked up a little of what Emma said.

Sick b*tch! Psychotic w*nch!

Leaning at the back of her chair, she closed her eyes, waiting for Jeremy's call.

He's going to be mad thinking that I damaged the grave. But I have the footage!

I won! But why do I feel a little guilty?

What she did can be considered manipulation. She did feel a little bad. She could have used some other means to get back at Emma. She could have hidden the fact about Jerlina's baby's grave forever from Emma.

But...

She deserves this! She never should have touched my sleeping baby! She had a choice!

Jerlina would have never touched a baby's grave no matter how cruel the mother acted with her.

I wouldn't have done it either!

But Emma chose to do it!

She deserves to be exposed for who she is!

If she is damaging a baby's grave, how much more will she escalate thinking that everything is other people's fault?

What I did is not wrong!

-----

"Emma...

"

Emma could sense that Jeremy's voice is not affectionate anymore. It seemed dry.

"I am asking you where you are!

" he raised his voice and Emma gulped.

"I... I got scared and I ran away... I am on my way back to my home... Jerry, you will not kill Scar, will you. She's-

"

"You knew it was a baby's grave and you didn't try to fix it?

" Jeremy's voice was soft but Emma felt the chill.

"You saw a destroyed baby's grave and your first instinct was to take pictures, and leave? Not only-

"

"But Jerry, I was scared! What-

"

"Shut the f*ck up and listen, Emma,

" Jeremy spoke in a stern voice making perspiration form on Emma's forehead.

"Not only that, you sent me the pictures, and did you send the pictures to Jerlina?

" He asked. He wished she didn't. Otherwise, he'll have to find her curled up crying in some corner of the house.

My Jeryl doesn't deserve that!

"No...I sent it to you alone...

" Emma scrolled through her phone and immediately sent the images to Jerlina.

How did I miss that?

Jeremy on the other hand sighed in relief.

Emma continued,

"I just didn't know what to do and I wanted to inform how Scar is-

"

"Scar, huh?

" Jeremy scoffed.

"You're sure Scar was the one who did it, Emma? Do you think Scar is a lowly scum who'd damage a baby's grave? You know it, right? You know damaging a baby's grave is wrong, right, huh Emma? Isn't that why you complained to me?

"

"Jerry... I don't understand why you... What are you implying? I showed you the proof that Scar-

"

"Shut up, Emma!

"Jeremy's voice was low and firm.

"From today on, I break the sibling relationship between you and me. From today on, we are strangers! Don't contact me ever again. And don't f*cking come near my wife! You knew... you **ing knew it was a grave and yet you...

"

The call ended.
