Chapter 624: Five Poisons and Joshua

"Sir, could you please tell us more in detail?" Tina asked.

The man nodded, "Yes, I remember that year vividly. Jake was the hope of our entire family. Even our relatives had high expectations for him, especially since it was quite an achievement for a poor family like ours to have a child in high school at that time."

"However, Jake's grades were mediocre and he was rather unknown at school, without many friends. According to the elderly, he was a loner."

"But after he was kidnapped and returned, he seemed like a changed person; he became much more cheerful. At that time, he even had a girlfriend at school, which caused me to scold him, but honestly, I think he was much better after returning. A young man should not be a loner."

Tina and Jared exchanged looks.

It's already the best outcome if someone comes out of such a tragic memory without falling into depression or developing psychological shadows.

How could this person named Jake turn into someone with such a cheerful personality?

The man continued, "Later, Jake indeed didn't disappoint us. He was accepted into Norther University, and after graduating from there, he went abroad to study."

The woman, who had been quiet all along, snorted and tears streamed down her face.

Tina quietly passed a tissue to her, "Did something happen?"

The man sighed heavily, his expression turning grave, "We originally disagreed with him going abroad, but Jake insisted and managed his expenses through part-time jobs without needing our financial support. Reluctantly, his mother and I agreed, but once he left, he never returned."

The woman beside him started crying loudly, "If I had known that my son would never return, I would never have let him go abroad to study!"
