Chapter 42 Jane Jumped off the Building
Avery inquired about the recent situations of those girls, and their circumstances were similar to the
information Jacob had provided. She had hoped to make amends for those girls, but they had either
moved or returned to their hometowns, making it impossible to find them.
Avery had to temporarily give up and decided to visit the asylum again once Jane had rested well.
After chatting with Brian for a while, Avery parted with him and looked up at the sky before hailing a cab
home.
It was the peak of the evening rush hour. Leaning against the car window, Avery closed her eyes to
relax. The local radio channel was broadcasting news in the cab, and a news report about a jumping
accident in an asylum on Luminary Mountain caught her attention.
Avery snapped her eyes and asked the driver to turn up the volume. It was just the same hospital she
had visited earlier in the day.
She quickly took out her phone and searched online, only to find out that the deceased was Jane,
whom she had visited earlier. In the photo, Jane was wearing a thin hospital gown and had jumped
from the rooftop with a bizarre smile on her face.
At the sight of the photo, Avery felt a chill run down her spine and got goosebumps all over her body.
The driver asked, "Miss, what's wrong? Why do you look so pale?"
"No, nothing. I just think this girl is very pitiful." All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
"Mental illness, you know. It happens. My cousin's daughter also has depression, and she has
attempted suicide a few times. For them, leaving this world is a relief."
Avery couldn't agree with that as she thought of the girl who had been restrained and injected with
sedatives on the bed. The girl was still so young.
Feeling gloomy, Avery returned home. Jacob hadn't come back yet. She leaned against the sofa,
feeling mentally and physically exhausted.
Her mind was filled with images of Jane jumping off the building. She was shocked for a moment and
then regained her composure.
Thinking about her own impending fate, Avery wondered if her death would be the same. She did not
have any family. She wondered if Jacob would be saddened by it or if he would feel relieved.
Avery opened her phone and started to look up travel guides for Northernmost River. She needed to
make the most of her remaining days.
Jacob came home late that night. When Avery saw him, she approached him with her notebook with
the travel information that she had spent the whole night organizing. "When can you go to
Northernmost River? I've found the hotel and flight tickets. Let's go...."
Before she could finish her sentences, Jacob angrily threw the notebook on the floor. Only then did
Avery realize the rage on Jacob's face. His eyes were cold, filled with anger.
Avery's smile froze, and she cautiously asked, "What's wrong?"
Jacob's towering figure leaned over, and he looked infuriated. Avery felt her heart pound violently as he
stared intently at her.
"Did you visit Grace's grave?"
Avery nodded, "Yeah, I went to visit Grace when I visited my grandmother. I know you hate my father,
but I should at least have the right to visit her, shouldn't I?"
"Visit?" Jacob sneered and then threw a bunch of photos at Avery. The gravestone that once stood
under the plum tree was now shattered into pieces, leaving a scene of devastation.
Avery stood frozen. "How did it end up like this?"
Jacob met her shocked eyes with a cold gaze. "Stop pretending here! Avery, although you were
occasionally willful in the past, you were kind and gentle. I showed you mercy many times, but you're
actually so malicious. Grace never had a day of happiness in her life, and now she is treated like this
even after death."
It took a moment for Avery to react, and her face showed a hint of disbelief. "Do you think I did this?"
