Let Me Go, Mr. Harvey

“No, my mother is gone.”

When Angela turned around, Roland saw her red eyes.

It turned out that she was not heaty (a unique concept in traditional Chinese medicine), but crying.

“… I’m sorry, I don’t know.” Roland looked at her swollen eyes and stopped his smile.

Angela shook her head and said, “It’s all right.”

“Let’s talk about the treatment another day.” James stood silently in front of her, blocking Roland’s view.

Roland opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he just expressed his condolences and left.

He cared about Miss Angela because of Elva, and her experience was too tortuous, however, Mr. James always treated him as a rival in love.

–

“Elva has passed away?” Jessica asked in surprise while holding her phone.

Cleo’s excited voice came from the other end of the phone, “Yes, the servant of the Chante family just told me that she committed suicide with depression. I heard that Angela cried so hard that she fainted! If you ask me, Elva deserved to die being a bully together with her families!”

Jessica sighed and said in a very soft voice, “What an example of biting the hand that feeds you. It’s not worth it…”

Her voice was too low to be heard clearly by Cleo, so Cleo raised her voice and asked, “What?”

“Nothing.” Jessica said: “I’m sorry, Miss Cleo, I have already disappointed Angela once, and will never disappoint her again. I can’t accompany you in doing what you have to do this time.”

Hearing what Jessica said, Cleo was anxious, “Don’t do this! Jessica, it was because of Angela that you got into such a mess. Please think it over! Are you really willing to let her go like this?”

“What goes around comes around. I deserved this.” Jessica sighed.

Cleo tried to persuade Jessica for several times, and finally she became irritated, “What a useless coward! You deserve to be a cripple. If you don’t want to cooperate, why do you waste my time? Wuss, I curse that your baby will be doomed, and your husband will cheat on you and your company will go bankruptcy, and your family will have bad fortunes…”

Jessica hung up with hatred and furiousness in her eyes.

Now everyone dared to screw her over!

She took out a new mobile phone, and logged on a Microblog account. After changing the IP address, she messaged several VIP member privately.

[Big V, I have a tipster for you! ]

[I heard from a friend born with a silver spoon that the wife of the president of the Chante Group was forced to cut her wrist and commit suicide by her family, and she has been confirmed dead!]

[I have evidences!]

These messages were followed by a lot of texts, videos and audio materials.

After sending these messages, Jessica erased all the traces left on the Microblog. And then she took out a voice changer, and called a paparazzi.

“Hello, Luis, you can find the one I told you before at room No. 1223, Unit 6, Wutong Community. She has a recording to prove that the Chante family bullied a distant relative. After you find her and get the recording, don’t forget to transfer the money to my account”

After getting the assurance from reporter Luis, Jessica hung up the phone. Turning off the phone, she took out the SIM card and broke it into two and threw them in the trash can.

She didn’t care about the reward at all, but she was afraid that if she didn’t ask to be paid for doing so much, he might be suspicious, and it would be troublesome.

After doing all these, Jessica stood up and tied the garbage bag to throw it away.

But at this time, she noticed the voice changer and the mobile phone that had only been used twice on the table. So, she stopped to break the voice changer into parts, and threw it into the trash bag together with the mobile phone, and then walked out with the garbage bag in hand.

“Miss Jessica, are you going to throw away the garbage?” an old lady from the community asked with a smile.

Jessica nodded obediently, “Grandma, let me help you throw yours.”

“Then thank you very much, Miss Jessica.”

“Grandma, it’s my pleasure. I’ll go to throw my garbage anyway. No worries.”

The old lady smiled to show her fondness. She persuaded, “You have stayed here for a few days, right? Why don’t you go home? A family dispute would be settled overnight.”

Jessica gave a vague answer, and after throwing away the garbage, she returned to the apartment she rented temporarily.

She had never cooked, and there was nothing to eat or drink but a fruit knife in the refrigerator.

Jessica took out the fruit knife and put the suicide note on the bedside table. After thinking for a while, she took out the antidepressant from the drawer to threw several tablets on the ground, and then put it back into the drawer. She had already confirmed that her brother and Mr. Shaw would have a business meeting with a major client in Starshine Hotel which was two kilometers away.

Mr. Shaw would definitely bring his secretary who was also his lover and lived downstairs in the same building with Jessica. She hadn’t turned off the tap deliberately once, and the water spread downstairs, so, the secretary came up to look for her.

Jessica confirmed all the details again and again, and then took out her frequently used phone to call her brother.

She called for three consecutive times, but no one answered.

Jessica laughed at herself. Her brother was really angry with her for an outsider. If she committed suicide, would her brother really come?

She was not sure, so, danger and opportunity coexisted. She told herself if she wanted to make a bet, then make it big!

If she won this time, she would not only ease the pressure on the public opinions about the Smith Group, but also suppress the Chante Group by the way.

Besides, in terms of Denis’s characters, he would rush over here. If he did so, it meant that he had given up this big client, which would certainly make grandpa and others dissatisfied, and then they would think of her again!

Rays of firmness and steadfastness burst out from Jessica’s eyes, and she dialed the number again.

This time Danis answered, but he was already impatient when he answered the phone, “What’s the matter?”

“Brother, you… you hate me so much?” Jessica laughed at herself and she said weakly, “If I die… die, will you forgive me…?”

She threw her phone on the ground.

“Jessica? Jessica? Where are you?”

Danis’ panicked voice came from the other end of the phone.

Jessica twitched her mouth indifferently, thinking it was almost time. She walked over and picked up the fruit knife, and slashed her wrist.

The blood spread out instantly, meandering on the ground.

–

Danis wasn’t sure whether Jessica was tricking him or not.

But thinking of Elva’s death, he was worried that Jessica was really committing suicide. So, he handed the client and business over to Mr. Shaw, and rushed out with the secretary who claimed to know where Jessica was.

–

Angela didn’t know how long she had been sitting outside the emergency room. She took the death certificate from the doctor and watched them take her mother’s body away. She felt as if she was dreaming.

Would she wake up and find that her mother was still alive and called Angela in her ear?

“Angela, where’s mom?” Luna hurried to the hospital almost out of breath with her two children and two servants.

Angela spoke, with her throat sore and dry, “They took her body to cremation.”

“I still hope that the kids could see Mom…” Luna’s eyes turned red.

Angela tried to open her mouth and said, “They’d better not, because mom is covered in blood. It’s better for them to remember mom as she used to be.”
