Chapter 23
Jeremy just nodded with such a gloomy pain in his eyes. He never revealed what he had witnessed to his dad, enduring the agonizing torment, because that was his mom's last wish.
His dad gave him a wretched look. "But--"
"It's okay, dad. That's mom's. I want to treasure everything about her, even t..that l..letter."
Tony gave his son a smile filled with overflowing sadness.
After handing the suicide letter to Jeremy, the prosecutor excused himself and left the two.
In his cold hand was a fake suicide letter. 'I'm sorry mom, I am really sorry..' Jeremy kept saying in his head. He was terribly crushed inside.

"You've been protecting Dave at all costs because that's what your mom had asked you. I'm sorry to say this, but you know what? Aunt Leona is not happy where she is right now." Chris already let out his frustration. Jeremy's deep guilt is frustrating Chris. His best friend does not deserve to miserably suffer because he has always been a good son and brother all this time. After drinking another shot, Ken wiped his wet lips. "I'm sure you know what Chris meant. Do you think Aunt Leona is happy despite your selflessly genuine effort to fulfill that fucking responsibility? Look at you, you are a lot more wrecked than Dave. You're not the one who committed that insane.." Murder. That word alone would definitely hurt Jeremy. Ken had to swallow his anger, so he

"Dad, try this. Yenny made this organic juice this morning. It will help you relax." Tony Sean's face lit up. The old man felt good because Dave seemed completely fine. But he had no idea that his son had been putting on an act since this afternoon for a reason. In just a few minutes, Tony Sean fell asleep. Dave put something in his drink. Since Yenny left, that box had kept bugging him. What if she got curious and opened it? He trusted her. But the thought of his mom, who had shown kindness to Yenny ever since, snatched his confidence. Paranoid, he came up with something. And that was to make his dad fall deeply asleep in case he had to confront Yenny for not doing what he had asked her to

"He actually came here to introduce his girlfriend to you." Ken responded, then he looked at Gail mockingly. "Formally." "What??" Gail suddenly felt annoyed, knowing that Serin was not actually Jeremy's girlfriend but a housemaid. And what annoyed her more was the heartbreaking scenario of Jeremy kissing Serin at Campbell Park, to think that they're not even in a romantic relationship. "Why? What's wrong with that?" Ken fueled Gail's annoyance. "Can't Jeremy introduce Serin to his friends?" Friends. That word alone was a slash in her heart, it was painful. Ken was right, she was just a friend. She and Jeremy were only friends.&nb

"Mysterious eyes?" Chris and Ken asked at the same time, flustered. "The first time I looked into her eyes, I saw flashing scenarios that were oddly familiar. But what's strange there is that I was in those scenarios. I saw myself. Even though they were flashing, I was sure that it was me. I thought I was only greatly distressed because of Dave, but I did experience it again. Remember when you talked to me regarding the new sketch she made? That night, when I met eyes with her, I saw scenarios for the second time. And.. a while ago, what I just encountered through her mysterious eyes is really agitating. Do you know why? Aside from seeing flashing scenarios, I also heard my own voice, screaming such a tormenting pain. That's the reason why I painfully screamed while confronting Serin in her room earlier." An overwhelming shock fe

Even though Dave's journal could confirm he did kill his mom, his psychological disorder could be used as an alibi, a form of defense, to get away from his serious crimes. Because of that voice recorder, Yenny listened to Dave when he had asked her to get inside. She fearlessly faced another unavoidable danger because she wanted to get her bag and escape with it. If Dave was cunning, Yenny was quick-witted. At that time, she easily came up with an effective approach. To appear vulnerable and defenseless just to trick Dave. She had to get the guy's trust again. And she did it. She was able to fool Dave with her sly pretense. Dave touched her face with fondness. "Leave early later, okay? Get my box and b

Following Jeremy from behind, Dave was wondering why his brother was in Horizon Town earlier than usual. Suddenly, it began to bother him. But the thought of Yenny and his box was freaking him out. Dave thought of distracting Jeremy. He would ask his brother to spend time with him in his room. But he stopped walking when he saw Jeremy go straight to the spacious hallway leading to the dining room and kitchen. "What the heck?" He cussed silently. Shaking his head, Dave just rushed upstairs, feeling more agitated. As soon as Jeremy reached the kitchen, the old lady welcomed him with a happy smile. He was clouded with heavy thoughts, but

The thought of his undying intimate feelings for Yenny began to discomfort Chris. This unforeseen awkwardness had been driving Chris to keep himself busy. On the other hand, Yenny was totally unaware that Chris was already having a hard time, suppressing his growing awkward feeling because of her. She's completely clueless that Chris has loved her for so long. Yenny feels comfortable whenever she is with Chris, Ken and most especially with Jeremy. She really considers them her close friends, oftentimes her annoying but caring siblings. She is 100% sure that no one, among her guy friends, would ever develop feelings for her. That is impossible to h

"I am very sorry, Sir Jeremy but I won't come back anymore. I quit nursing Sir Dave." Dave's new nurse, who only lasted for two months, left Horizon and quit her job in a rush. She suddenly reminded him of Yenny. His brother's new nurse and Yenny were the same. For sure, taking care of Dave terribly exhausted and terrified them at the same time. He could not blame them though, but his heart broke for a reason. They could have properly said goodbye but they still chose to leave, without personally telling him. Jeremy felt sad because he did want to at least sincerely thank them before leaving. He hated how this kind of farewell kept piercing his heart to the deepest, just like how his mom le
