Chapter 23 No One in the Mourning Hall

There were hurried footsteps in the hospital corridor. From afar, Jennie saw the slender figure kneeling in the dark corridor, her head slightly lowered and her back straight.

She was wrapped in sadness and despair, as if she had been abandoned by the world.

Jennie could not help but feel sad. Suppressing the pain in her heart, Jennie softly called, “Jazmine?”

Jazmine’s stiff body moved.

With her face covered by messy hair, Jazmine slowly raised her head.

Jennie couldn’t help but gasp. She subconsciously took Jazmine’s face in her hands and asked softly, “What’s wrong?”

Her expression was full of despair. The light in her eyes was gone, and there were still tears and red blood at the corners of her eyes. She didn’t look like a human anymore.

Jennie even feared it would freak Jazmine out if she was slightly louder.

“I, dad…”

Jennie almost cried out. She bit the tip of her tongue and used the pain in her mouth to calm herself.

Jennie took Jazmine into her arms as gently as possible. “Jazmine, it’s not your fault. Don’t punish yourself like this. It makes my heart ache.”

“Dead, right?”

Jazmine said in a weak and hoarse voice, like a dying person.

Hearing this, Jennie felt a burst of fear. She held Jazmine even tighter and anxiously comforted her, “Robert slipped and fell. It

really is not your fault. Before he died, he told me that he wanted you to be well. Jazmine, are you ignoring Robert’s words?”

Jazmine suddenly laughed.

She chuckled a few times in a low voice. “I am still alive.”

At least, she was alive and kicking.

Jennie couldn’t stand this any longer. She pulled Jazmine up, who was kneeling on the floor. Jazmine felt so bony that Jennie’s
