The Love that Never Really Dies novel Chapter 978

Jake had started to panic by then.

Nevertheless, he got the room key from the hotel and opened the door.

When the door opened, however, he realized that Devin had not moved, as if he had been fused to the chair.

Jake, who had been watching over Devin yesterday, was even more worried. What on earth did he see in the surveillance footage? What would make a calm and collected man react in this manner?

He wondered whether he should tell Sebastian about this.

“Devin, you…” Jake said.

“What’s the time now?” He was rather surprised to hear the other man’s voice.

Devin had been sitting in the chair for more than ten hours. When he finally muttered huskily with bloodshot eyes, it seemed like he had retrieved his voice from the void.

Jake was stunned.

A few seconds later, he regained his senses and checked his watch. “It’s almost seven in the morning. There are a number of phone calls at Red Pavilion, saying that Sebastian’s looking for you. Do you want to head back, Devin?”

“Okay.” Devin nodded.

Then, Jake watched as he got up from the chair. He squeezed the tape in his hands. Without warning, he tossed it out of the window.

The tape fell out of the tall building.

“What… What are you doing, Devin? Why did you throw it away? That’s the last original footage, and we spent a long time finding it. There’s nothing left after you throw it away.” Jake felt exasperated.

He rushed to the windowsill. Unfortunately, the tape had landed on the ground below, and it was smashed to smithereens.

Devin has gone mad! Yesterday, he was the one who was hell-bent on finding this thing. Today, he’s also the one who throws it away. What the hell is he trying to do?

“Devin, can you tell me something? What the hell did you see in the footage? Is it exactly as Ms. Shanae said? Never mind, then. Don’t marry her if you don’t want to. We’ll help you!” Jake said.

He thought what the woman said was true, which was the reason for Devin’s fury.

After that, Jake began to console Devin.

He even brought up Sebastian and said that they would help him.

Yet, Devin ignored him. As soon as he discarded the tape, it seemed like a burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He heaved a sigh and walked away.

Jake was at a loss for words.

Then, he followed Devin.
