Chapter 245 It’s Bad

There was still no answer from inside.

Then a woman’s voice shouted from above, full of alarm. “Oh no, there’s someone on the roof! Young man, move back! dangerous!”

“Call the police! Is he trying to jump?”

Serena and Sebastian looked at each other. They took off up the stairs without a word.

The building had eight floors. As they sprinted up, they spotted a narrow ladder leading to the rooftop.

Sebastian reached for it. “I’ll go first. Then I’ll pull you up.”

Serena didn’t slow down. “Just go. I don’t need help. Check if it’s Jonah!”

“On it.”

Sebastian climbed fast and pushed past the clotheslines. He spotted someone standing alone near the edge.

He walked quickly. “Jonah.”

Jonah turned around, startled. His eyes narrowed. “Who are you?”

Sebastian didn’t stop. Jonah tensed. “Stay back!”

Sebastian froze and raised both hands. “Alright. I won’t come closer. But you need to move away from the edge. That spot’s not safe.”

Jonah shook his head. His expression was blank. “I’m not moving.”

Serena’s voice came from behind, breathless. “Jonah, don’t do this.”

Her hands trembled. Her pulse hammered against her chest. “Please. You’ve got it wrong. Mr. Beaumont is fine. He told me himselt He collapsed because of his blood pressure and drinking, not because of you.”

Jonah’s head dropped. His voice cracked. “Then why is everyone attacking me online?”

His eyes turned red. “Ms. Steele, they’re saying things I can’t even repeat.

“They’re messaging me. They’re not just insulting me–they’re going after my family. I only have my mom. Just her. She gave everything to put me through school. Maybe she wouldn’t have gotten cancer if she hadn’t worked so hard for me.

“Do you think if she saw what people are saying about me, she’d be ashamed to call me her son

Jonah took a step back. Serena’s heart nearly stopped.

“No!” Her voice was sharp. “She wouldn’t Jonah, you’re everything to her. If you give up now, what’s she

“Those people online don’t matter. You don’t need to carry the poison. Jonah, please just hsten to me.” She stepped closer and reached out. “Grab my hand. Mr. Beaumont already posted a statement I’ve got someone clearing those comments. Just grab my hand.”
