Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 74

Chapter 74 You Can't Die before Atoning for Your Sin

Avery jumped from the seventh floor with a determination to die. She could only use this way to sever the shackles between her and Jacob.

However, she never expected Jacob to fall faster than her after she hopped off.

She saw him jump out of the window without hesitation. He even used his left foot to push off the window ledge as a stepping stone, accelerating his body towards her.

In the blink of an eye, Jacob was by her side. Avery widened her eyes, and her pupils constricted.

"Is he nuts?" she thought.

Within the swirling snowflakes, Avery met Jacob's icy, furious gaze. He opened his arms and threw himself at her with all his strength, like a fishing net. Avery wanted to escape but failed.

She was as fragile as a moth, once willing to enter the fire for a glimmer of light.

After the fire burned her, she regretted it. Her heart was shattered. However, Jacob didn't even spare her body fragments, continuing to crush and torment her, sinking her into the mud.

He held her body tightly, and both descended rapidly from the above.

Jason brought an inflatable pillar from the hospital entrance, and the bodyguards rushed over just in time.

Jacob slammed into the inflatable pillar with a loud bang while tightly holding Avery's body. They rolled onto the ground.

Fortunately, the inflatable pillar absorbed most of the impact, so neither was injured. John, who was upstairs, breathed a sigh of relief, feeling lucky he had been well-prepared. Otherwise, Jacob and Avery might lose their lives.

Jason and the bodyguards were dumbfounded in fear. They couldn't know how to explain if something went wrong with Jacob.

Jacob rolled over the inflatable pillar and then hit the ground heavily. He frowned deeply, but he didn't make a sound.

Throughout the fall, Avery was held tightly by him and unharmed.

As she got up, her first action was fiercely slapping Jacob across his face. "Jacob Hill, why did you even take away my right to die? Don't you hate me? You should be happy after I die."
