Andy, on the other end of the line, said something when Gwen’s face instantly turned pale.
After a while, she hung up. She looked at Luna closely. “Hailey Walter is dead. She jumped off a building.“
Luna felt every ounce of her muscle stiffened. Hailey Walter… was dead?
She killed herself?
Luna retreated a few steps back.
More than an hour ago, Hailey was still having lunch with them. How did she just… die like that?
“Perhaps she felt shameful and did not want to go overseas?“
Gwen sighed, “Hailey is a proud lady. She would not be able to withstand such humiliation.“
Luna thought it was unbelievable.
In the dining room a moment ago, Hailey seemed to have accepted Old Mr. Walter’s arrangement. She even went up to pack her bags, why so suddenly…
Hailey’s memorial service was done in a simple manner. It did not feel in line with the amount of grief Old Mr. Walter felt of losing his beloved daughter.
The Walters explained that because this happened
too suddenly and it was also a little embarrassing, so they decided to do it in a simple manner.
Luna followed Joshua and Alice to pay their respects. “How dare you still come! “
Upon seeing Luna, Old Mr. Walter’s emotions erupted in rage. He reached out and pointed at Luna’s face angrily.
“If it were not for you, my daughter would not have jumped! Luna, you owe the Walters a life! “
