“But… that doesn’t mean he has to harm uncle. They’re brothers, after all. He could have voiced out
about the mistreatment he had to endure. Why did he choose to do such a vicious act?”
After recollecting himself, Devin eventually pinned all the blame on his father for what happened.
Jasmine was beyond exasperated upon hearing that.
Sebastian, who had heard everything standing behind, also felt a blow to his heart.
This is where Devin’s different from his parents. Even though he might lack responsibility and capability,
his views are often righteous. And he always looks at the whole picture before judging.
“What did you say? How could you say that your dad was vicious? What an unfilial son you are! If he
didn’t do what he did, you wouldn’t even have a place in the Jadesons right now!”
Jasmine burst into devastation as she accused her son loudly.
A grim look crossed Devin’s face.
No longer wanting to argue with her, he continued pushing his father’s corpse and moved forward.
Jasmine lost her mind upon seeing that, and she climbed onto the railing beside her.
“Jasmine, what are you doing?”
“That’s right. Mrs. Jadeson, what are you doing? Please come down now!”
The Woodses behind her and the watching crowd got startled by her act.
Devin immediately turned around when he heard the commotion.
“Mom, are you out of your mind? What are you trying to pull here?”
“Out of my mind?”
Jasmine, who had gotten onto the railing, let out a smile. Staring at Devin, she let go of the railing and
stood up unsteadily.
Devin was in utter shock upon seeing that.
Sebastian, who was nearby, was also bereft of speech.
By then, Sasha and Janice had arrived with the kids on the ground floor. Their hearts skipped a beat
upon witnessing what was happening upstairs.
This woman is definitely crazy!
“I’m not crazy, son. I’m just thinking. Since you’ve abandoned your dad, let me accompany him then.
After I’m gone, please take care of yourself.”
Overwhelmed with fright, Devin did not know how to react.
Gaining back his senses, he immediately rushed toward his mother.
But before he could reach her, she jumped off the railing. Sebastian also failed to catch her in time.
“Mom!”
A miserable wail of agony cut through the air, echoing throughout the hospital’s corridor.
In that instance, pin drop silence filled the space.
Everyone froze on the spot as they gazed down upon the woman who was now an unidentifiable mess of
gore and flesh downstairs.
Sebastian could not believe what was happening.
As for Sasha, who was downstairs, she was in utter astonishment.
Did she actually jump? Why? She’d been creating a fuss in Oceanic Estate from yesterday until now. I
know that she did all that to save Stephen, but even if Stephen was dead, she still got Devin, no? She
didn’t need to pull such a desperate act.
Sasha stared numbly at the scene, unable to comprehend why Jasmine jumped.
Right then, she sensed someone appearing beside her. Staring at the gruesome scene, she trembled
incessantly as she lifted her head.
“Sab?”
“Why? Why didn’t you guys stop her?”
The color drained from Sabrina’s face as she look at the man upstairs.
Sasha opened her mouth and wanted to explain to her. No one was able to react in time when Jasmine
lashed out.
But the words got stuck in her throat as she followed Sabrina’s gaze and looked toward Devin.
She could barely recognize him.
There was no trace of life on his face as he stared down at his mother’s body, unmoving.
His eyes were filled with utter coldness and a trace of hostility.
Sasha had never seen Devin like that.
In the end, Devin collapsed to the ground.
He had been up for the entire night due to his father’s suicide. And now, he had to witness his mother’s
death in such a brutal manner. No one would be able to endure that mentally.
Sebastian immediately arranged to send Devin into a ward.
As for Jasmine…
“Sebastian, please leave it to me. Old Mr. Jadeson has woken up. You should go inform him about this.”
Sasha came over and took the initiative to handle the matter.
Sebastian was in the worst mood at that moment.
He hesitated for a while and eventually agreed.
“Just give me a call if you can’t handle it.” He did not forget to remind Sasha before leaving.
Sasha was still nauseous as she witnessed Jasmine’s suicide from a close range. Even as a doctor, it
was a massive blow to her.
However, upon hearing Sebastian’s words, she felt a slight sense of warmth spreading through her heart.
