Chapter 692 Attempted Suicide


    "Will do. Joslyn, thank you for keeping mepany all these days. I''m all right now. Please spend


    more time with your son," ir reminded. A few days back, ir and the Li family had no choice but to


    leave D City after the rescue operation had been called off. Joslyn worried that ir would do


    something impulsive, so she had stayed with her friend all day long ever since she hade back


    home.


    "I know. Mom said he was very well-behaved while I was gone." Joslyn realized how lucky she was in


    her life. Although Hartwell was as busy as Wesley used to be and wasn''t often home, at least, she


    knew that he loved her. She never had to suffer much in the matters of love. At that thought, she


    couldn''t help but feel sorry for ir.


    ir admired Joslyn very much too. How she wished she could have had a loving son with Wesley! But


    she could never have that anymore—not for the rest of her life.


    ''Maybe in my next life...'' she thought to herself.


    "I''m really happy for you, Joslyn. You''re lucky to have married into the Ji family. They are all kind


    people. Grandpa, Uncle, Aunt and my two cousins. They treated me so well after my parents passed


    away. I owe them a lot. But I seldom expressed my gratitude to them. I was thinking I could pay them


    back once I was more sessful, but..." ''I won''t have that chance anymore either...''


    Joslyn sensed that something wasn''t right about her. She became nervous and asked, "ir, are you


    okay?"


    "Why? I''m all right. Don''t be so scared, Joslyn." ir chuckled.


    ''Was I just overthinking?'' Joslyn wondered. Sheforted herself thinking that maybe she had been


    worrying about ir too much. ir was in a terrible ce right now, but she was a strong girl.


    "Okay then. I''m relieved to know that."


    "Tomorrow is his funeral," ir said quietly. She wanted to see him.


    "ir, I''ll always be by your side. Please stay strong..." Joslyn didn''t know how tofort her.


    Sometimes words were just too powerless.


    ir smiled. "I will. So many people still live on even after losing their loved ones." It was just that their

    world would be different and colorless. And they might never be truly happy ever again.


    ir had lost her parents a few years ago, and now Wesley was gone too. Without them, she couldn''t


    lead a happy life.


    "I''m d that you think that way," Joslyn said warmly.


    "Mm hmm. Sleep tight, Joslyn. I''m going to bed too." ir began to feel sleepy. Her eyelids were


    drooping.


    In her hazy state, she imagined Wesley''s figure standing in front of her.


    ''Wesley, did youe to pick me up?


    Wait for me. Don''t leave yet. I''lle to you soon.


    I''ll fall in love with you all over again in my next life. I promise I won''t easily get jealous and throw a


    tantrum. Poor guy, you shouldered too many responsibilities in this life. What is it that they say—with


    great power,es great responsibilities. I understand you now. But it''s toote...'' The line was still


    connected, but ir''s mind had already begun to drift off.


    "ir, we''ll say goodbye to Mr. Li together tomorrow."


    Joslyn''s voice snapped her back to reality. "Hmm," she responded quietly. But she didn''t want to say


    goodbye to Wesley; she wanted to leave with him.


    She was engulfed by Wesley''s aura here. She felt safe and wasn''t afraid of anything.


    The call ended.


    As soon as ir hung up, the phone slipped off her hand, and she slowly closed her eyes…


    Before she lost consciousness, she muttered to herself, "Wesley, I''ming to you."


    Meanwhile, Joslyn started to feel uneasy; an ominous feeling lingered in her heart. The more she


    thought about what ir had said on the phone, the more worried she became. A momentter, she


    saw Hartwell walk into the room. "Honey, I want to go keep irpany. I''m worried about her."


    Hartwell thought about it. Then, he nodded. "I''ll call her now."


    He dialed ir''s number. But the call didn''t go through.


    Joslyn got more anxious. Hartwellforted her, "Maybe she''s in the bathroom. Don''t be scared. I''ll


    call her again after a few minutes."


    She hastily sat up on the bed and screamed, "No! No! Something is wrong with ir. I''m sure! Honey,


    she''s in danger!"


    Hartwell tensed up too. As ir''s best friend, Joslyn understood her the most. He believed his wife''s


    gut feeling. Without wasting another second, he immediately had their driver take them to ir''s


    dormitory.


    However, when they reached the dormitory, her colleague told them that ir hadn''te back.


    Hartwell called ir again. Still, no one answered.


    In a panic, the couple hurried towards Eastern Coastal Apartments. The security guard at the gate told


    them that he had seen ir earlier that day.


    Knowing that she was there, the couple rxed a little.


    But they became tensed again after ringing the doorbell to Wesley''s apartment for a long while. No one


    answered the door.


    Joslyn knocked at the door heavily with her fists. "ir! Are you there? It''s Joslyn. Open the door!"


    Hartwell stopped ringing the bell and shouted, "ir, can you hear me?"


    No matter how they yelled, no one replied.


    At this point, they were sure that something bad had happened to ir.


    Collecting himself, Hartwell remembered about Niles. He quickly contacted Niles and asked if he knew


    the passcode to Wesley''s apartment. Luckily, he knew it. After entering the passcode, the couple ran in.


    Joslyn ran to ir''s bedroom, while Hartwell went to check Wesley''s.


    "Joslyn! Come here!" His loud voice echoed through the apartment.


    As Joslyn ran into Wesley''s bedroom, Hartwell was already calling the ambnce.


    ir was lying in Wesley''s bed, motionless.


    Her eyes were closed, her face as white as a sheet. Joslyn broke into tears at once. She shook ir''s


    body violently, trying to wake up her friend. "ir, ir… Are you asleep? Wake up!"


    Hartwell stopped her and pointed to the night stand. "It''s useless. She has taken sleeping pills."


    Joslyn looked towards the night stand. A ss of water—half-empty, and a bottle of sleeping pills—


    empty,y on top of it.


    "Oh my God! How did she get these sleeping pills? Did she eat them all?" Joslyn started to panic. She


    could hardly stand.


    Hartwell urged her quickly, "We need to give her first aid! Come, turn her to one side."


    "Okay!" She wiped off her tears and listened to Hartwell''s instructions.


    Eventually, the ambnce arrived and took ir to the hospital in time and had her stomach cleaned.


    She was saved.


    After that, Joslyn didn''t dare leave ir''s side. She stayed in her ward the whole time to tend to her.


    She was afraid that ir would attempt suicide again if she was left alone.


    The next afternoon, ir woke up.


    As she slowly opened her eyes, she saw Joslyn staring at her, chin propped up in her hands. Excited


    that her friend was finally conscious, Joslyn shot to her feet and pressed the nurse-call button.


    ir looked around her, confused about the situation. Why was she at the hospital? Was she still alive?


    Did shee back from death?


    The doctor checked her thoroughly. There was nothing serious, but she definitely needed some


    psychological guidance.


    Hartwell had already contacted a good psychologist. Once ir''s condition was a little better, the


    psychologist would begin her treatment.


    The doctor left the ward after the check-up. Before ir could speak, her phone rang. It was from


    Niles.


    Joslyn answered the call for her. "Hello, this is Joslyn, ir''s friend. Do you have something to tell


    her?"


    "Yes! Something important!" Niles said excitedly. His voice was so loud that even ir could hear him.


    Joslyn tapped on the speaker button. "Please go ahead. She can hear you."
