Chapter 964 Jumping Off A Building


    The wind blew, making Lydia tremble and she almost fell off the building.


    "Lydia, please calm down!"


    Holding her breath, J calmed herself and took two steps forward. She was still a fair distance


    from Lydia, but she stretched out her hand and said, "You cane back down now. Your baby will


    be back soon."


    Looking at J''s clean, slender hand, Lydia was entranced. "Really?"


    J nodded and gave her a smile. "I told you, I like your daughter a lot. She''s very cute. Trust me.


    She''ll be back."


    "If you like my daughter so much, then I trust you." Despite saying this, Lydia didn''t reach for J''s


    hand. Instead, she cried with ssy eyes and seemed intent on staying where she was.

    Taking off her coat, J said, in a trembling voice, "The wind is so strong up here. Are you cold?


    Here, take my coat."


    Suddenly, as J was about to join Lydia on the edge of the roof, she heard a man shouting.


    She turned around to see Brandon''s handsome face contorted with anger.


    "J!" Brandon stared at her in disbelief and said, "It''s dangerous out there. You could die! Please


    don''t mess about."


    "I just want to save Lydia. I don''t care about anything else." J pursed her lips before saying, in a


    serious tone, "Can you do me a favor? Please go and find her baby."


    "I''ve sent people to search the hospital," Brandon said in a low voice. "We''ll find her soon."


    The door to the rooftop then flew open, and Sean ran in breathlessly.


    "There were people pretending to be employees of the Larson Group that took away Lydia''s baby."


    The veins on Brandon''s forehead popped out in anger. He cursed in a low voice, "Find them and


    then we''ll deal with them in the severest way possible."


    "Okay, I''ll go and find them. I''m on it now." Sean, shocked by Brandon''s reaction, ran off in search of


    the suspect.


    J knew it definitely wasn''t Brandon who had kidnapped the baby, but she also knew that Lydia


    was so agitated she could do something stupid and dangerous at any time.


    If she really fell off the building, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    If anything happened to Lydia, the Larson Group would never be proved innocent. Taking a deep


    breath, J shook off Brandon''s hand and said, "It''s okay. Trust me. I can get her down safely."


    J braced herself, and walked away from Brandon towards Lydia.


    As she walked into the cold, piercing wind on the rooftop, it blew her hair behind her ears. She had


    to be careful. One stupid move could tip Lydia over the edge, hopefully not literally; Lydia was


    extremely nervous at the moment.


    J had never felt such fear as she did standing at the edge of the rooftop. She had always been


    a little afraid of heights. And this height would make anybody feel dizzy.


    Gritting her teeth, J climbed to the edge of the roof and threw her coat around Lydia. J tried


    to raise a smile, as she said, "Come on, we''ll get down together, okay?"


    Lydia didn''t say anything, just shifted further along the edge.


    Startled by her sudden movement, J pleaded with her, "Please,e down with me. Your baby


    will start crying again without her mother."


    "Baby... My baby... You have to bring my baby to me. If she can''t find me, she''ll cry..." It was obvious


    to J that Lydia was in a trance, she was just repeating things back and forth incoherently.


    "If youe down, then you can see your baby. Think about it. It''s too dangerous to bring the baby


    up here to the rooftop. Besides, it''s freezing up here. What if she gets cold?" Rubbing her


    shoulders, J shivered with cold, looking jealously at her coat wrapping Lydia up tight and warm.


    Lydia nodded, agreeing with J, who helped her to slowly walk back from the edge of the


    rooftop.


    Everyone was relieved to see that J''sforting words seemed to have done the trick.


    However, as Lydia began to step back to safety, she suddenly turned her head, looking down in a


    daze. She grabbed hold of J urgently, saying, "J, I can hear my baby calling me!"


    J couldn''t hear anything. She knew that Lydia was imagining things.


    "No, the baby is in the hospital, indoors, not up here." J forced a smile, hiding her fear. Again,


    she calmly tried to convince Lydia to step back from the edge.


    Lydia couldn''t help but keep looking down. Suddenly, she pushed J away, running back to the


    edge of the rooftop, trying to jump down. "Mommyising, baby. Don''tcry, please don''tcry..." J


    fell to the ground. She tried to get to her feet in time to catch Lydia.


    "Lydia!!" !"


    Lydia fell from the edge, her whole body hung in the air. J was clinging to just one of her hands,


    as Lydia carried on murmuring about her baby.


    Gritting her teeth, J clung onto the rusty fence with her free hand and shouted to the rest of the


    people gathered there, "Help! I can''t do this on my own! I can''t hold on for long."


    No one expected Lydia to jump off the building like that, so suddenly, after it looked like J had


    talked her down. Everybody was frozen in ce with shock.


    Although J had a hold of Lydia, it was only by one hand, and she did not have such a firm grip


    as she would like. She couldn''t use her other hand to help, as Lydia''s weight would pull her down


    with her. She could feel Lydia''s fingers were slowly sliding between hers. Danger was imminent.
