Chapter 386 Chapter 386 "Blood..." Sabrina's lips quivered, struggling to string together coherent words. "So much blood... suicide... jumped..." Did someone just leap to their death? Allison was taken aback.
"Sabrina!" Just then, Brian stormed into the hospital room, scooping up the terrified Sabrina into his arms. With a face full of concern, Brian gently soothed her, "Don't worry, Sabrina. I'm here. You're safe now..." Sabrina shook uncontrollably, gripping Brian's collar as tears streaked her pale face, clearly shaken to her core. Allison was hit with a wave of guilt; she shouldn't have let Sabrina witness such a horrific scene. Judging by Sabrina's appearance, she must have seen the gruesaftermath up close. That's bound to leave a deep emotional scar.
After calming Sabrina for a bit, Brian turned to Allison.
To Allison's surprise, Brian looked barely any better than Sabrina.
Taking a deep breath, Brian slowly said, "Ben jumped... Grandma Eleanor had a heart attack and didn't make it..." Allison's eyes widened in shock.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJoshua had just returned to the Fisher estate when he heard about Ben's suicide.
It happened right after he'd refused Ben's request to see Chris.
A jump from the rooftop.
Grandma Eleanor was in the shospital as Ben.
The news couldn't be hidden; it was too much for her. The shock triggered a heart attack, and she couldn't be revived.
Everything happened so fast.
Yet, somehow, it wasn't entirely unexpected.
After hanging up the phone, Joshua stood silently in the villa's garden for a long while.
The Fisher family lost two members in a single day, a tragedy that left everyone in deep sympathy.
Joshua quickly moved to suppress the news of Ben's suicide. By the the jumped, Ben was just a shadow of his former self, nearly unrecognizable, even to those few who might have known him.
As for Grandma Eleanor's heart attack, the Fisher family decided not to announce it right away.
This was on Ray's insistence. A suicide in the hospital followed by news of Grandma Eleanor's sudden death would definitely raise eyebrows.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRay was still in Europe when he got the devastating news about his son and wife. There was no way he could return immediately. After man sat alone on the sofa avel ending the call with Joshua, the old shattered and unable to close his eyes.
Per his wishes, Joshua planned to wait for Ray to return before arranging the funerals for Grandma Eleanor and Ben, with their bodies temporarily stored in the hospital's morgue. Late into the night, Allison lay awake in bed. She couldn't shake off the day's shocking events.
She knew Grandma Eleanor had a fragile heart and couldn't handlen stress; at over eighty, her health was frail, so a heart attack wasn't all that surprising. But why did Ben suddenly jump? Could this have something to do with Chris?
In recent days, Javier had kept her Joshua away from Allison, and friends hadn't mentioned anything about Joshua or the Fisher family. So, Allison was unaware of Ben's poisoning.
Joshua had been tied up with assisting the police in the poisoning investigation and gathering evidence of Chris's other crimes, leaving him no tto get in touch with Allison.
