When His Eyes Opened (Elliott and Avery) novel Chapter 992

Chapter 992

 A large crowd had gathered outside the Sterling Group building.

One could vaguely make out the red silhouette swaying up on the roof.

"I heard that the woman up there used to be the PR manager at Sterling Group! She was by Elliot Foster's side for over a decade but never got anything out of him.She was so hurt that she decided to die right here! What a stupid woman!"

"Is she one who was disfigured not long ago?"

"That's right! She used to be gorgeous, but she got disfigured in a fire.What a shame! She could not win Elliot Foster's heart before she was disfigured.After her disfigurement, he would want her even less!"

"There are plenty of women that Elliot Foster rejected, but did any of them want to jump off of a roof like this one? There must be something wrong with her, right?"

"Who knows what goes on in the private lives of the wealthy? I just think she's really pitiful and feel sorry for her right now!"

"There's a saying that pitiful people have hateful traits.If I wanted to die, I definitely wouldn't do it at someone else's company building.Everyone in the building is still working right now! Does this woman not have morals at all?!"

As the crowd chattered away, the fire department rushed to the scene.

Once the fire truck stopped in front of the building, the firemen hurried out of the truck and prepared their rescue efforts.

Up on the roof, a savage grin appeared on Chelsea's face as she stared down at the crowd below.

"It's over...It's all over..." she mumbled.

Then, she leaped and jumped off the roof! Over at the hospital, Avery had taken Layla in for a medical checkup.

While they were waiting for the test results, Layla fell asleep in her mother's arms.

Avery sent a text message to Mike and asked him to meet her at the hospital.

Then, she glanced over at the large TV screen at the front of the lobby.

The screen was broadcasting the afternoon news.

"We have breaking news.An individual committed suicide by jumping off the roof of Sterling Tower this afternoon.The incident has caused traffic to back up in the city.Motorists are advised to take an alternate route.We would also like to remind everyone to value your lives..."

Along with the sound of the news anchor's voice, an image of Sterling Tower appeared on the screen.

The front of the building was surrounded by police tape.
