âWhat? Ginny jumped off a building?â
Jeremyâs mind went blank. He was dumbfounded.
Ginny had good grades and was very cheerful.
She got along with her classmates at school, and her teachers thought highly of her.
Why had Ginny jumped off a building when everything was alright in her life?
âDad, donât worry. Iâll come over right away!â Jeremy hung up and looked at Clarence imploringly. âBrother Howard, my sister jumped off a building at school. Iâm heading there now.
âWill you come with me?
âYou know medicine. Perhaps you can help!
âSure.â Lives were at stake, so Clarence did not say no.
He knew Ginny. She had gotten into an argument with the Murphy family at the hospital for trying to defend Clarence.
Clarence had a soft spot for the innocent girl.
âCecilia, look after Thirteen Hall for me.â
With that said, Clarence hurriedly followed Jeremy out of Thirteen Hall and headed to Ginnyâs school.
Ginny was a sophomore at a well-known high school in Mediterranean City.
When they first arrived at the school, Clarence saw students gathering around the office building belonging to the teachers.
Several ambulances were parked nearby. A white cloth covered the ground. Jackson was standing by it with a pale face.
Helena was crying, close to passing out!
âThis is... a corpse!â
Clarenceâs pupils constricted.
Jackson and Helena were both there, so the corpse under the white cloth had to be Ginnyâs body.
âGinny!â Jeremy cried. He rushed toward Ginnyâs body. He fell to the ground and kneeled ten feet away, nearly breaking down.
He might have been a hedonistic playboy, but he had genuine affection for his sister Ginny.
Looking at Ginnyâs corpse right in front of him now, Jeremy could not accept her death!
âSorry, Mr. Hayes. We did the best we could.â
âBiologically speaking, your daughterâs dead.â
âMy condolences!â
Several doctors in white coats came over. One of them was Dr. Greyson White.
Greyson had performed the surgery on Peony at Mediterranean City Champion Hospital the other day. (TN: Mediterranean City Champion Hospital was mistranslated as Mediterranean City First Hospital in several previous chapters. Both names refer to the same hospital.)
âWhat happened?â Jackson growled. He and his wife, Helena, had just arrived to find Ginnyâs cold corpse lying on the ground.
âMr. Hayes, we... we had no idea! Ginny was doing her morning self-study.
âShe went out. She was gone for more than ten minutes and didnât come back.
âWho knew...
âShe... she suddenly jumped off the building.â Ginnyâs class adviser, Tanya Lewis, was a young woman in her early thirties.
She was tall, curvaceous, and wearing a black womenâs suit. Her beautiful legs were clad in black silk, looking very much like the women in movies from a certain island country.
Jacksonâs gaze was sharp enough to kill. âShe just jumped off a building out of the blue? Iâll tear this school down if you donât give me an explanation for this by today!â
âMr. Hayes, you canât do that! Your daughter jumped off a building out of her own free will. How can you blame the school?â Tanya looked helpless.
Just then, a paramedic snapped, âWho are you?
âGo away! Stay away from the body!â
All eyes turned to look at Ginnyâs body.
They saw Clarence lifting up the white cloth as he crouched down beside Ginnyâs body.
Greyson raised his eyebrows, recognizing Clarence. âYou again, boy?
âWhat are you doing here after you caused so much trouble in the hospital?â
âClarence, what are you doing? Donât touch my daughter!â Helena roared at the top of her lungs, as if she was under attack.
Clarence said casually, âMrs. Hayes, your daughter can still be saved!â
âWhat?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Everyone was stunned.
âCan a dead person be saved?â
âIs he talking in his sleep?â
âIs what youâre saying true?â Jackson was overjoyed.
âYes.â Clarence nodded affirmatively. Ginny might have looked like a cold corpse to everyone else.
However, to Clarenceâs eyes, there were still three vital energies lit in between Ginnyâs eyebrows and on her shoulders.
However, Ginnyâs soul was missing!
The green light in the necklace with a cross should be able to revive Ginny upon finding and bringing back Ginnyâs soul.
âMaster Howard, Iâll say yes to any request you have.
âAs long as you can save my daughter!â Jackson sounded like he was clutching at straws.
âIâll have your back no matter what happens to you in Mediterranean City!â Jackson assured solemnly.
Greyson sneered loudly. âMr. Hayes and Mrs. Hayes, donât let him fool you. Your daughterâs dead.â
âWe checked. Her vital signs are gone. How can she be alive?â
âMr. Hayes, I know youâre sad, but you canât bring back the dead!â
âMr. Hayes and Mrs. Hayes, Iâm sorry for your loss. Itâs better for us to now put Ms. Hayes to rest as soon as possible!â
Several other doctors spoke up as well.
Helenaâs face was pale. Even the doctors had said Ginny was dead, so she had given up too. âDear, let Ginny leave this world in peace!â
âDear, Master Howard might have a way...â Jackson frowned.
âMaster Howard! Master Howard!â
Helena went berserk. It was as if she was losing her mind. âWhat nonsense! Master Howard? My daughterâs dead!
âDead! Can you understand that? Sheâs never coming back to life!
âAre you asking some Master Howard to touch her? Is he going to desecrate my daughterâs body?
âThatâs enough!
âJackson! Wake up! I wonât allow anyone to touch my daughterâs body!â Helena was sobbing hysterically.
Jackson put his arms around Helena tightly as tears welled up in his own eyes. âIâm sorry, Dear. I didnât take good care of Ginny.â
âBoohoo... Whatâs the point of saying that now? Ginnyâs already dead. Boohoo!â
Helena broke down, collapsing in Jacksonâs arms.
Clarence frowned. He did not have time to worry about Jackson and Helena. He was searching for Ginnyâs soul.
It was breaking daylight, since it was seven o âclock in the morning.
The students had just finished their early morning self-study, so the sun was not completely out yet. Ginnyâs soul should be nearby.
Once the sun came out, it would be almost impossible for Ginnyâs soul to survive out in the sun.
Clarence did not have much time.
Clarence got up, frowned, and glanced around.
Suddenly, Clarence shuddered. He had spotted Ginnyâs soul under a big tree!
