Chapter 41 Life Is Unpredictable

Avery placed the bouquet down and explained, "I'm her friend. I just wanted to visit her and then leave."

"There's no need for that. Strangers will only worsen her condition. Miss Adams, please leave."

Jane stuffed the pillow into Avery's arms, her voice filled with despair. "Take my child and leave quickly. Please raise her! I'll help stall these people off. Run!"

With that, she fiercely threw the bouquet that Avery brought toward the attending physician. "I'll kill you, you bitch! It's you who wants to take away my child. Go to hell!"

Security guards wearing explosive helmets and shields rushed into the ward. One of them used an electric baton to strike Jane down, while the others quickly threw her into the bed and tied her up. Jane continued to scream, "Give back my child!"

As sedatives were injected into her, she gradually lost her resistance and soon fell asleep.

Avery, who witnessed everything, found it horrifying. Rather than calling this place an asylum, it was more like a prison. They weren't doctors but rather guards.

Jane, who was now unconscious, seemed harmless, and Avery was ushered out of the ward and didn't manage to ask any of the questions she had in her mind.

When Avery left, she turned back and saw the doctor called Dr. Wood scolding the nurses in a rage, as if she was questioning why they let Avery in.

During Avery's stay there, Dr. Wood glanced at her, and their eyes met in the air. Soon, Dr. Wood looked away and stopped scolding.

Avery felt that something was off, especially since Dr. Wood seemed to know her even though Avery had never met her before.

According to Jacob's information, Jane had an incident after her college entrance exams. She was abandoned by Martin, had an abortion, and then suffered from mental illness. And then, she was sent to the asylum for treatment.

But Jane's previous reactions seemed really weird. She kept mentioning her child but didn't mention anything about Avery's father. Avery wondered if it was because her father had inflicted a great blow on her. Avery then went to Jane's home, hoping to find her parents to inquire about what had happened back then.

When Avery arrived, she found that their home was now rented by other people. Jane's parents had immigrated abroad with their whole family a year ago.

"They left their daughter alone and moved abroad? As far as I know, they're not rich. Even if their son does well in study, how could they afford to go abroad?" Avery wondered and found it even more strange. She asked Brian out again. Brian, as respectful as before, greeted her, "Hello, Miss Adams."

"Brian, I have something else I want to trouble you with. Do you know Jane?" asked Avery.

"I do. That girl is quite pitiful. She was suddenly diagnosed with a mental illness two years ago. It's probably because her family put too much pressure on her studies. Nowadays, the children have a tough life, and if their mental resilience is low, they'll easily collapse."

"Brian, may I ask if Jane had a boyfriend?"

Brian immediately shook his head, "No, impossible. She prioritizes her studies and keeps her distance from the opposite sex. If we have to mention someone she was close to, it would only be Mr. Adams. Mr. Adams is a kind elder who often helps Olivia, Jane, and the deceased Zoey unconditionally. It's a pity that they're not fortune enough to live up to Mr. Adams' nurturing."

"From what I know, her family is quite poor. How would they suddenly immigrate abroad?"

"Her mother got remarried to a wealthy man. Jane had originally planned to apply to foreign universities, but unfortunately, this incident occurred suddenly. Mr. Adams would be devastated if he found out. He was so nice to Jane and had high hopes for her. Alas! Life is unpredictable."
