In the past, on this day, no matter what happened, Jeffrey would never leave the Gray family's house at night.
He would spend the entire night in front of his father's memorial, using that time to remind himself not to repeat his father's mistakes.
Year after year, it was always the same.
But tonight was different!
Rachel was led out of the hospital by Jeffrey.
A black sedan was waiting at the entrance. As she got into the car, Rachel felt as if she were in a dream.
She had thought tonight would be a nightmare, yet he had shown up unexpectedly.
"Are you scared?" he asked, his hand resting on hers, noticing that even now, Rachel's hand was still trembling slightly.
Rachel bit her lip and nodded.
Of course, she was scared. It felt as if her fate was entirely in someone else's hands, and all her struggles were utterly powerless.
It seemed that just one word from someone else could determine her life or death.
