A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 441 Get Down Here

Linda was offering psychological counseling to the seniors every day. Her guidance might not be able

to improve their grades right away, but it was really helpful for students to face the upcoming college

entrance examination. It would relax them a bit and enable them to bring out their best in the exam.

Going to college shouldn't be the only way to measure success. It wasn't the only chance they had to

make a difference. The teachers should stop telling students that the college entrance examination was

the most important thing in their lives. The students were stressed out because of it. Some of them

might not be able to bear it and broke down, which would only cause harm to them.

Linda always thought that college entrance examination was only something that they needed to go

through in their lives. The students should take it seriously but with a normal attitude.

Life was full of possibilities. It would be best to cross the bridge when it came to that point.

The college entrance examination was now getting closer and closer. The teachers and the students

were almost at the end of the road. It was raining that day. Linda was giving a psychological lecture to

the students in the classroom. Then, she started hearing noises outside the window during class. It

seemed that something had happened.

Most of the students started looking out of the window to see what was going on.

Linda pointed to the student who was sitting in the first row and said, "Edward, could you go check

what is happening?"

Edward nodded his head and ran outside to see if there was anything wrong. After about ten seconds,

he returned and reported, "Ms. Xia, it seems that a girl student is about to jump off a building. She is

sitting at the edge of the roof. Many students are watching her from the ground."

'Another jumper?' Linda shook her head. She had been a teacher here for less than a year, but there

had been two jumpers since she got here.

The first time Linda met John was when he was also about to jump down. Luckily, John had listened to

what Linda had said and calmed himself. Now that Linda had gotten him off a false accusation, he was

getting better and better. Linda couldn't imagine what would have happened if she hadn't been there for

John. He might have jumped off the building, doing what the crowd had told him to. A kid would have

lost his life.

"I'll go find out what is happening. You all stay here and do some reading, " Linda told the students in

the classroom.

Before she walked out of the classroom, she turned around and emphasized, "Everyone, just keep

quiet and read your books. Don't make any noise. I'll be back soon." After Linda finished speaking, she

walked up to Edward and told him to maintain discipline in the classroom. Then, she left in a hurry.

Leaning against the balustrade of the hallway, Linda looked at the building's roof. She recognized the

girl sitting there.

She was a student in Class 4, senior level. She looked thin and weak, and she had straight hair with

bangs. Her name was Emily Wang.

Linda had only spoken with her a few times. She didn't talk much, and she always stayed quiet.

Linda was staring at her at the moment. Emily Wang's legs were hanging from the side of the building.

The scene reminded Linda when John wanted to jump off the building. Emily was doing exactly the

same as John did. Why did she want to end her life?

Linda knew that her top priority now was to save the girl. Life was precious. No matter what had

happened, no one should give up on themselves easily.

Anna seemed to have noticed the noise from outside, so she walked out of Linda's office and rushed to

the classroom where Linda was giving a lesson. Many people were standing in the hallway on each

floor. They were popping out their heads to see what was happening on the roof. The teachers were

trying to keep the students in the classrooms. They wanted to stop the students from seeing this.

"Anna, you're just in time! Could you call the police now? As well as the fire department? I'm afraid that

she might jump off the building, " Linda told Anna when she saw her.

If the girl died, she would feel nothing after, but her family and friends would have to bear the sorrow

and pain of losing her. There were always ways to solve problems. She just needed to believe that

things would turn out all right in the end.

One's life was full of opportunities.

Linda remembered that the girl was coy and not talkative. She used to sit quietly. She wouldn't dare

even look at Linda during class unless Linda asked her to answer questions. Even if Linda tried to talk

to her, Emily wouldn't speak much.

Linda couldn't figure out the reason why she wanted to commit suicide.

"My Lady, I've called the police. They will be here very soon, " Anna reported.

"Oh, right! Where are Ron and the other bodyguards?" wondered Linda. She remembered that Charles

had sent four bodyguards to protect her.

"They should be in the underground garage. They don't want to be seen on school, so they spend most

of their time in the garage."

"Call them to the roof right now and ask them to save the girl any way they can."

"Yes, My Lady." Anna nodded and left.

Linda was watching the girl's every move. Just then, she heard some remarks from the crowd

gathering on the ground.

"Are you really going to jump? Why the delay?"

"Don't you want to commit suicide? Why are you still not doing it? We have classes. Hurry up!"

Linda became frustrated when she heard those words. How could they say cruel things to her? They

were her schoolmates. Emily must have had her own problems that she could not deal with on her

own, or she wouldn't have wanted to end her life like this. She might be very disappointed with her life

and thought that death was the only solution to her problems. She was seriously thinking about

committing suicide. The students who kept telling her to jump were so cold-hearted.

Linda believed that those who were shouting were students, not teachers. The teachers wouldn't say

stupid things like those. Even if they didn't care about the girl's life, they wouldn't say it out loud.

Linda decided to scold the students herself, so she ran downstairs to talk to them. "How could you guys

say something like that?" said Linda seriously. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The students stopped speaking when they saw Linda. They recognized her at once. Linda was one of

the teachers whom the students would listen to.

Linda wasn't teaching them major courses, and she didn't push them to get better grades, so the

students liked her. Besides, she was really pretty. Looking at her appearance during class was

enjoyable enough for the most of them.

"I heard that Emily had been assigned to a foster family, and her foster family is very poor..." one of the

students muttered.

"Even if what you are saying is true, it shouldn't be a big deal. She shouldn't end her life like this.

And all of you, you should never say anything like that to anyone ever again. Do you understand? What

if she listens to you and jumps? This is a life we are talking about, and she is your schoolmate. How

could you tell her to kill herself?" Linda was trying to let the students realize that what they had said

was totally wrong.

In less than ten minutes, the whole school had known that a girl was sitting on the roof and that she

might jump down at any minute. The headteacher of the girl's class, Jerome, had showed up outside

the building. He shouted to the girl, "Emily, don't do anything stupid. Get down, and talk to us. We can

help you."

Emily Wang's tears fell down instantly when she heard Jerome calling out on her. She started

murmuring "Mr. Liu", but she was still sitting on the edge of the roof.

"Emily, listen to me. Get down right away. The college entrance examination is just around the corner.

Don't you want to seize the chance to change your life? That's an opportunity you should cherish. You

don't want to jump down. Trust me. Just get down here!"

Ron and the other bodyguards had climbed up to the roof while Jerome was talking to Emily Wang.

Right after they got the order from Linda, they took action. They were all professionally trained, so

climbing to the roof was a piece of cake to them.
