Chapter 25 Committed Suicide? I reached the company and started the meeting. Lance was on his seat looking annoyed while Lawrence reported. He kept yawing. “Why are you so sleepy? I thought you always sleep early?” Lance scolded. Lawrence was woken up by me last night to pick me up, that must be why he was so tired. I felt guilty. Lawrence put down the sketch in his hands and stared at Lance. He then said word by word: “I went to save a lady last night. She was abandoned by a male friend in the middle of the road in the night, do you agree that this is call saving someone else’s life?” I was shocked that Lawrence would speak to Lance this way, he was Lance’s worker!

My phone rang, it was a stranger’s number. “Hello, is this Ms Gomez?” | raised an eyebrow. “Yes, you are?” “I’m from Hospital of Denmark, is Karen your mother?” Hospital…. I got a bad feeling. “Yes, she is my mom, what happened?” I asked nervously. “Your mom tried to commit suicide, she’s now in the ER. Someone left this number for us to dial. Please come over as soon as you can. ” My phone dropped from my hands and onto the floor. My mom really tried to kill herself, she wasn’t joking…… .
