Chapter 1233 Something More than Feeling Inadequate


    Such a hugemotion was sure to draw a crowd.


    Steve Chadwick sat on the ground. “Everyone,e see for yourselves. I can’t even take my own daughter back. They’re also pushing me!”


    Sometimes, reasoning with such people was difficult. Nowadays, everyone could record videos. Hence,w enforcers must be mindful of their actions.


    Being too forceful was not an option, especially when the other party had legitimate reasons.


    People started to gather. Some were taking pictures, while others discussed


    the situation.


    “It’s not that you can’t take her back. It’s just that the case isn’t solved yet.”


    Steve was clearly frustrated. “You brought us here and told us that my daughter went to a bar and ended up jumping down a building. Everyone knows about it now, yet you’re telling me the case isn’t solved. Is this how you


    people do things?


    “Yes, sure! We’re poor, and our lives are worthless. But you can’t treat us like


    this!”


    The reason why Steve would say such a thing was because thew


    enforcement officers had told them to find a ce to stay while they waited for the investigation to progress before deciding on an autopsy.


    It sounded like a joke to him. Did these government officials know how much it cost to stay one night in Hawford? It truly was easy to talk when they weren’t


    the ones suffering.


    When the police car arrived earlier today, many peopleughed at them. His daughter was already gone, and now the whole ordeal was being publicized.


    They could no longer stay in their hometown. In just an hour, many people hade by to ask them how they felt having raised such a daughter.


    There were even people who asked, “Did you not give your daughter enough money? Is that why she had to go to bar meet scions?”

    Steve indeed didn’t have much education. But he believed he nevercked in providing for Vanessa. He never expected her to change so much.


    Who would want to believe their daughter was the “bar girl who jumped” that was being discussed online? But when reality stared them in the face, they had no choice but to ept it.


    Steve’s current thoughts were simple. He just wanted to quickly take his daughter home.


    The insurancepany had also called. They said that Vanessa had bought insurance long ago.


    They would be eligible to receive one million dors inpensation if her death was ruled an ident and her cremation and funeral were conducted within the stipted time.


    One million dors. How many years would it take for people who came from such a small ce to earn that amount?


    Vanessa was gone, and Steve was indeed heartbroken. But soon, that pain slowly diminished and was overshadowed by mockery and gossip.Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    He even started questioning himself. How did he raise such a daughter?


    Going to a bar to find a scion, getting slept with by some unknown person, then having an ident because she couldn’t handle it.


    Vanessa’s parents had worked honestly all their lives. How did their daughter end up like this?


    Wynter stood among the crowd as this happened. Her focus was different from others.


    She was watching Astrid Cortney, who was beside Steve, her head hung low. She had tanned skin and wore loose clothes. No one knew what she was looking at.


    Astrid hadn’t spoken a word since the beginning. She would asionally lift her eyes, but her expression was empty.


    “Mrs. Chadwick, please persuade Mr. Chadwick. We are doing this for your daughter’s sake. Don’t you want to know why your daughter jumped?”

    Astrid seemed to have heard the officer’s words yet also not at the same time. She simply shook her head. “No more suffering. We don’t want her to suffer anymore.”


    Steve was furious as she tugged at Astrid. “Why are you wasting your saliva on


    them?”
