Alternative Ending to EoEH


Hi readers, today I will be writing an alternative ending to the novel Emily of Emerald Hill. The novel ended with Emily remembering her years as a mother and the head of Emerald Hill. However, I feel that this way of ending is pretty boring and normal and thus I shall propose another ending to the novel.

As the years went by, Emily became lonelier with Charles, Edward and Doris visiting her only during Chinese New Year and her birthday. Gradually, Emily suffered depression.

On her 75th birthday, she was given a large television set by her children. However, on the very occasion, Emily's health condition unfortunately also detoriated. The doctor had diagnosed her with Alzheimer disease, urging her children to spend the last few days together with Emily.

As Emily was admitted to the ward, she held a grin on her face, telling her children that they have to take good care of Emerald Hill as it is their family's "treasure". Days past with Emily getting paler and paler...

At one period of time, Emily started talking about her past times as the head of Emerald Hill, telling her children about the hardships she had went through. One that silent night, Emily's soul left her body willingly, reuniting together with Kheong and Richard...
