Chapter 347 Let’s Go to Hell Together
Callum waited for a while, but there wasn’t another text message from Emma other than this one.
Noticing the instant change in his expression, Elspeth asked, “What happened?”
Not intending to hide it from her, Callum placed his phone before her right away. “Something’s up with
Emma.”
Elspeth merely darted a glance at the text message before turning to look out the window
expressionlessly. “I know.”
“You know?”
Callum turned to look into her eyes. Seeing that there was nothing but mockery in them, he figured out
what had probably happened. Emma probably did something that got under her skin again, he thought.
After clearing his throat, he started the car immediately without saying another word.
Thinking that he was going to save Emma, Elspeth immediately turned to look at him in astonishment.
“Wait a minute! Don’t tell me you’re really going to save her?” she said with an involuntary note of
sarcasm in her voice.
“Why would I save her? No, I’m taking you to watch the spectacle.”
He drove the car at breakneck speed. Elspeth sat in the passenger seat, her mind feeling at rest all of a
sudden as she looked at the scenery flying past the car window.
…
Callum soon found Emma’s location according to the IP address from which the text message was sent.
To their surprise, however, it didn’t belong to the basement where Elspeth had been held. Instead, it was
an abandoned gas station.
He subsequently found the location with Elspeth. As soon as they stepped out of the car, they were
greeted by the pungent smell of gasoline in the air.
Elspeth clapped her hand over her nose with a frown. She muttered, “Why do I feel like something’s
wrong with this place?”
“I feel the same.”
She could sense Callum’s nervousness as he clasped her hand.
The next second, a mocking guffaw sounded from their surroundings. “Haha…”
Hearing the familiar laughter, Elspeth looked back sharply. As she had expected, it was actually Emma!
Emma seemed to have suffered a lot of torture. Her clothes were torn and tattered, and she was barely
pulling herself together. “Never did I think you guys would actually come here after I casually sent you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthat message.”
Callum darted an impassive look at her with no intention of feeling sorry for her. “So, what is it? Why did
you send me that message?”
At the sight of the indifference in the man’s eyes, Emma felt her heart throbbing in pain. “You’ve
remembered everything, haven’t you?”
At this point, Cellum wesn’t going to hide this from her enymore, so he nodded streightforwerdly. “Thet’s
right. I’ve remembered everything.”
“Hehe!” Only then did Emme suddenly breek into e heertrending leugh. Her eyes were bulging out of
their sockets es she seid, “I just knew it! If you hedn’t remembered everything ell of e sudden, you
wouldn’t heve cered so much ebout Elspeth!”
Not wenting to discuss this topic with her, Cellum esked with e frown of disgust, “So whet is it thet you
got me here to telk ebout?”
“Cellum, I love you so much, but why do you heve to be so hung up on Elspeth?!” Emme hed en

even give up my life if you went!”
Her words sounded quite gut-wrenching. However, true love wesn’t just ebout possession.
Reminded by her experience, Elspeth seid, “Emme, you cen never get hold of Cellum. It’s like how you
hed never ceptured his heert despite getting him to be with you when he lost his memories. Even if you
were given ten more yeers, or even e hundred… you’d still feil in the end!”

Emme dug the knife deeper into Elspeth’s skin while esking the men before her with reddened eyes,
“Whet would you do if I were the one who hed e knife held to my throet? Would you be so enxious, too?”
Elspeth’s skin wes more delicete then those of others in the first plece, so Emme’s movement instently

Emme’s heir wes flepping messily in the chilly wind surrounding them, which mede her look even more
like e medwomen when she leughed. “I’m not even efreid of deeth, so why would I be efreid of breeking
the lew?!” She freed one hend end pulled et Elspeth’s fece with ell her might, producing e red bruise on it

“Are you crezy?” Elspeth couldn’t help but sweer es her fece hurt from being pulled et.

suffered these things. Why did they end up heppening to me insteed?!”
At this point, Callum wasn’t going to hide this from her anymore, so he nodded straightforwardly. “That’s
right. I’ve remembered everything.”
“Haha!” Only then did Emma suddenly break into a heartrending laugh. Her eyes were bulging out of
their sockets as she said, “I just knew it! If you hadn’t remembered everything all of a sudden, you
wouldn’t have cared so much about Elspeth!”
Not wanting to discuss this topic with her, Callum asked with a frown of disgust, “So what is it that you
got me here to talk about?”
“Callum, I love you so much, but why do you have to be so hung up on Elspeth?!” Emma had an
incredibly determined smile on her smudged-makeup face. “I can do whatever she’s capable of! I can
even give up my life if you want!”
Her words sounded quite gut-wrenching. However, true love wasn’t just about possession.
Reminded by her experience, Elspeth said, “Emma, you can never get hold of Callum. It’s like how you
had never captured his heart despite getting him to be with you when he lost his memories. Even if you
were given ten more years, or even a hundred… you’d still fail in the end!”
Emma’s expression changed at every word she said, and hatred flickered across her eyes. Suddenly,
she lunged at Elspeth, grabbing her wrist and holding a knife to her throat.
All of this happened so fast that even Elspeth didn’t have time to realize what was happening, let alone
Callum, whose already sullen face darkened even more. “What are you doing?!”
Emma dug the knife deeper into Elspeth’s skin while asking the man before her with reddened eyes,
“What would you do if I were the one who had a knife held to my throat? Would you be so anxious, too?”
Elspeth’s skin was more delicate than those of others in the first place, so Emma’s movement instantly
made a bleeding cut in her skin.
The smile curving Callum’s lips was indescribably chilling. “Do you know it’s against the law for you to do
such a thing?”
Emma’s hair was flapping messily in the chilly wind surrounding them, which made her look even more
like a madwoman when she laughed. “I’m not even afraid of death, so why would I be afraid of breaking
the law?!” She freed one hand and pulled at Elspeth’s face with all her might, producing a red bruise on it

“Are you crazy?” Elspeth couldn’t help but swear as her face hurt from being pulled at.
Emma gradually tightened her icy grip on the back of her neck. “Yeah, I’m crazy. You know what? Rayan
Adler got a bunch of people to rape me, and they all had STDs! You should’ve been the one who
suffered these things. Why did they end up happening to me instead?!”
Elspeth looked at her calmly with an imperturbable look in her eyes. “I told you that I won’t let anyone get
away with even the slightest harm done to me.”
“How could you have the cheek to say that? You’re the one who came between Callum and me! Callum
and I were so deeply in love before; it was you who showed up and destroyed our relationship!”
Not bothering to waste time talking to Emma, Elspeth shot a glance at Callum, signaling him to get ready.
Then, the instant Emma burst into hysterical laughter, she swiftly clenched the former’s hand that was
holding the knife before prying the knife away from her.
Callum came forward and kicked Emma aside while protecting Elspeth carefully. “Are you alright?”
Only then did Elspeth feel the slight pain in her neck, which she could still endure. She nodded, saying,
“I’m fine.”
Having been kicked to the ground, Emma looked up to see Callum caring for Elspeth. She had never
experienced this before, nor had she ever seen such a nervous look in his eyes. At that instant, all her
feelings for the man vanished completely before turning into bitter hatred. “Callum, you’ll definitely regret
choosing Elspeth!”
Callum merely threw an impassive look at her with a hint of indifference in his eyes. “I won’t regret it, but
you should go to jail for what you did.”
Going to jail?
Just then, police sirens began wailing around them.
“Turns out you hate me that much. To think I’m so laughable…” Emma wiped the tears off the corners of
her eyes before looking up at the man seriously. “I have one question for you. Answer me. Have you ever
loved me?”
There was no doubt about the answer to this question. Callum blurted out without thinking, “No, I’ve
never loved you.”
“But I’m your first love! Haven’t you ever loved me?”
Callum carefully recalled the time he and Emma had spent together, but those memories were blurred;
he even had difficulty remembering them clearly. “I only went out with you on a whim, but we’ve been
through ever since you cheated on me.”
His words cleared Emma’s head like an ice-cold brick. She looked up with even crazier hatred in her
eyes, saying, “Well, in that case, just go to hell with me!”
