Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42

Olivia gathered information on a few people. However, it was nothing new from what she learned from Ethan. She wanted to make reparations with these girls. Unfortunately, they had either moved somewhere else or back to their hometowns. They were nowhere to be found.

Olivia had to stop and wait for Belle to settle down before visiting the psychiatric hospital again.

She chatted with Ryan for a while before heading their separate ways. Olivia looked at the colors of the sky before hailing a cab home.

It was the evening rush. Olivia leaned against the car window and closed her eyes to rest. The cab was playing the local news on the radio. A headline about someone jumping off the roof of a psychiatric hospital caught her attention.

Olivia opened her eyes and asked the driver to turn up the volume. It was the psychiatric hospital she went to earlier.

She did a quick search on her phone and saw that the deceased patient was Belle, whom she just visited. She killed herself. She was wearing a hospital gown in the picture. Her face had a strange smile.

Olivia immediately felt a chill run up her back when she saw the picture. Her hair stood on end.

The driver hurriedly asked, “Miss, what’s wrong? You look like you saw a ghost.”

“N–Nothing. It’s a shame what happened to that girl.”

“She’s sick in the head. Happens all the time. My cousin’s kid has depression and tried killing himself a few times. Leaving this earth seems like the only way they’ll be free.”

Olivia was reluctant to agree with him. The woman who was tied to her bed and tranquilized plagued her mind. She was so young.
