Chapter 307 Do You Understand


    Some people dreamt of fame and sess, while some only dreamt of happiness for the rest of their


    lives. In the end, people tended to get disappointed, and even mad at the world, when they realized


    that they had lived an unhappy life.


    And when someone umted too much disappointment, it would be despair that could


    eventually push him over the edge, making him want to die.


    Worry was evident in Jacob''s eyes as he looked around the interior of the car. He felt warm in the small


    space.


    They drove along the road until they finally found her on a bridge.


    Jacob calmed himself down and got out of the car, followed by James.


    From their positions, they could see Cindy standing on the viaduct, without holding on to the handrail.


    The wind was blowing, but it seemed like she didn''t care even if she fell down.


    On the contrary, the two men were afraid that she would fall. Therefore, Jacob cast a meaningful


    nce at James, who immediately got what he was trying to say.


    With a nod, he walked aside to do what Jacob asked him to do.


    Maybe it was because Cindy felt Jacob''s gaze that she turned her head to him. When their eyes met,


    she nervously held on to the handrail.


    "What''s going on, Cindy? Get down. It''s dangerous!" Although Jacob''s voice wasn''t loud, it was enough


    to reach Cindy''s ears.


    A faint smile appeared on her face as she looked at the onlookers.


    "Mr. Jacob, let me be. I will take all the responsibility. It''s my fault. It''s all on me..." She didn''t know how


    long she had cried; but now, Cindy was unusually calm. All she wanted was to see Jacob and


    apologize to him.


    In that way, she could end everything peacefully.


    "No. Think about your parents first. Think about your mother that gave birth to you and worked hard to


    raise you. I know you have lived a hard life, but what about them? Have they lived an easier life than


    you? How can you be so selfish? Why can''t you just let it go?" Jacob roared, unable to stop himself


    anymore.


    The people on the bridge who were watching the scene all respected Jacob, especially now that they


    felt his sincerity to save the woman from herself.


    "I''m unfilial. I''ve always yed a good daughter, but I know I''m not. Just like how I have worked very


    hard, but had been regarded as a disloyal employee in the end because of this matter. I know... It''s all


    my fault. I can''t me anyone else."


    As the two of them spoke, Jacob noticed that James hade back to his side.


    "How''s it going, uncle? Why hasn''t the policee yet? She might jump down the bridge any moment


    now." Not wanting to let Cindy hear what they were talking about, Jacob lowered his voice.


    "I''ve already talked to them. They are already on their way. They''ll be here soon." They both knew that


    the situation was critical, but no one knew what was running on Cindy''s mind.


    It would only take a second for her to jump from the bridge, but she would lose her life forever.


    After hearing everything that Cindy had said, James frowned. He just looked at her in a daze.


    "Little girl, you still have a long way to go. Don''t kill yourself just because of your problem. Look at me.


    I''m already old, but still single. Even so, I''m still living a good life, right?"


    The words James said caused an uproar among the onlookers.


    "It seems like she''s heartbroken."


    "People are getting lonelier as time passes by. I don''t know what''s wrong in this world."


    "Hey, hey, don''t talk nonsense. You''ll be responsible if she jumps down because of what you have


    said."


    An old man from the crowd tried to persuade Cindy. "Little girl, you could find a way to solve your


    problems. Why do you have to jump into the river tomit suicide? Listen to me. You might be


    thinking that your situation is hopeless now; but when you recall what you have been through after six


    months, a year, or ten years, you will probably justugh about it."


    "Yes, he''s right. Life is so wonderful. There are so many things to discover and to enjoy. Why do you


    want tomit suicide at such a young age?" a young man beside him chimed in.


    To rescue one person from death was better than to build a seven-storied pagoda for the god.


    Therefore, everyone who witnessed the scene was hoping that they could persuade Cindy toe


    down.


    "No, it''s a scar in my heart. I have made a mistake, and have been insulted because of it. Being alive is


    meaningless to me now." Sadness shed through Cindy''s eyes as she looked at a distance.


    It didn''t take long until they heard the whistle of the police car getting closer and closer, which made


    Jacob look back to confirm. The policeman with a mole on his face holding a cigarette got out of the car


    and walked towards him.


    "What''s going on?" The policeman rested his hands on his hips and looked at Cindy on the bridge. She


    just grabbed the handrail with one hand. Fortunately, she could ce one foot on the bridge so that she


    wouldn''t be pushed down.


    "As you can see, she is going tomit suicide." No matter how crucial the situation was, Jacob


    remained calm.


    "What? Haven''t you found the file yet? What about that man?" The policeman turned to James with a


    frown.


    Thetter nodded at him as a greeting.


    "I don''t know. Cindy hasn''t told me the whole story yet, so the case is at a stalement until now. We don''t


    know what happened. For now, we have to stop Cindy from killing herself. If anything happens to her,


    our chance to find out who that man is will be gone."


    Remembering the man they had to find, Jacob''s face darkened. He looked at Cindy and asked in his


    mind, ''Was the man worth dying for?'' Maybe it was not worth it, but Cindy couldn''t listen to anyone


    now.


    "Miss, please calm down. Death can''t solve the problem. There''s still a long way to go. You are still


    young. There are still many good things waiting for you..."


    Through the megaphone, the policeman tried to persuade Cindy.


    "I know, but there''s no turning back now. I have to do this. As I''ve said, Mr. Jacob, I can bear it alone."


    Tears streamed down Cindy''s cheeks. She looked down the bridge, as if she was getting ready to


    jump.


    The crowd screamed, because the woman seemed to have made up her mind. In a hurry, Jacob


    thought of what he could do as he observed Cindy.

    "Cindy, to be honest, I always think you are a capable person. You are strong and brave, but today,


    you''ve let me down."


    Since everyone''s persuasion was useless, Jacob decided to use reverse psychology, so he med


    Cindy on purpose.


    "Mr. Jacob... I didn''t mean to..." Cindy''s voice broke, because she suddenly burst into tears. She had


    worked as an assistant for so long, but only Jacob was nice to her.


    Honestly, Cindy wanted to cherish this job. She thought everything would be fine, but she didn''t think


    she could still do it now.


    After taking a deep breath, Jacob said, "I''m not ming you. On the contrary, I think you are very


    honest and hardworking. So you shouldn''t stand there. Do you understand?"
