Chapter 604

Jade, Ged, and Jansen. Three lives were lost.

Jansen was already known to be far from virtuous. Hence, his death at the hands of Melody didn’t stir much outrage.

However, the deaths of Jade and Ged hit much closer to home. They were students at Lovell School. Their classmates saw them every day.

Perhaps just the day before, they had been present in the classroom, laughing, arguing, full of youthful energy. And then, the next day, they were gone.

The murderer turned out to be Melody, widely admired for her talent, kindness, and grace. She had been the personification of elegance and charm.

When the news broke, many at Lovell School who had once been close to Melody were left in shock.

A delayed sense of fear settled over them, and more than a few patted their chests in relief, saying, “Thank goodness I’m still alive.”

“Thank Melody for sparing my

life.”

“She’s a devil, isn’t she? I can’t believe I used to be so close to her. Who could have imagined she would kill her deskmate, Jade?”

“And Ged. Did she kill him just to get back at Tiffany? Was it because Ged was friendly with Tiffany, so she took out her revenge on him?”

“A woman like her is absolutely terrifying…”

The shock and gossip among outsiders were one thing, but for the families of wave of torment and agony.

Jade’s parents, who had heard Melody’s confession in the cemetery long ago, were left powerless at the time, with no evidence to support their accusations. Jansen had shouldered all the blame and ended his life, halting the investigation.
