How was Emily educated?
“I only saw him once, and yet he is still alive. I cannot force myself on someone — he knows whether I’m his child or not. My mum tried her best but couldn’t continue with her education after having me, so she had to fend for me. I was raised by my grandmother and grandfather.”
Emmy was educated by well-wishers from nursery school to high school and stood out because she was bright — just like her late mother, who always ranked between first and third position in school.
