Chapter 687 "Ms.
Garcia..." he started softly.
Lindsey crouched beside Ruby, trying to find the right words to comfort her.
Ruby clutched Lindsey's hand, shaking her head as she said, "I've never had kids of my own.
The two I cherished most were Everleigh and your mom.
They were like daughters to me.
But both of them...
What did I do wrong? Why couldn't it have beeninstead of them?" Ruby's voice cracked with emotion as she thought about Everleigh's tragedy, unable to hold back her tears. Lindsey's eyes widened in surprise.
She hadn't realized that Everleigh, the well-known singer, had been one of Ruby's students.
Everleigh's suicide must have hit Ruby hard.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat explained her deep emotion upon seeing Lindsey's mother.
Gently, Lindsey wrapped her arms around Ruby, offering words of comfort, "Ms.
Garcia, this isn't your fault.
My mom's going to wake up.
I just know it.
" Ruby nodded, seeming to try to reassure herself.
When she looked up, she saw Sumner standing there, his face etched with sorrow.
With Lindsey's help, Ruby stood up.
She beckoned Sumner over, and he hurried to her side.
Ruby took Lindsey's hand in one of hers and Sumner's in the other, then brought their hands together.
Lindsey was taken aback and instinctively wanted to pull away, but Ruby held on firmly.
Ruby gazed at Sumner and Lindsey, her eyes filled with hope and worry.
"You two have to be okay.
Don't end up like your mothers..." Sumner, looking puzzled, asked, "Ms.
Garcia, do you know what happened to my mom?" Suddenly, Ruby realized she had said too much.
Her lips quivered.
She gently touched Sumner's hand, quickly changing the subject.
"Sumner, you're a real gem.
Look after Linds for me, will you?" Sumner's cheeks turned pink.
He sneaked a glance at Lindsey, whispering, "Don't worry, Ms.
Garcia.
I'll always be there for her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm" Ruby gave him a relieved nod.
However, Ruby's evasion only made Sumner more curious.
After Ruby left, Lindsey and Sumner walked back together. Sumner kept mulling over Ruby's words.
He hesitantly asked, "Lindsey, about those students Ms.
Garcia mentioned, was one Juanita? And the other, could it be Everleigh, the famous singer?" Lindsey confirmed, "Yeah, it's the first I've heard of it from Ms.
Garcia.
It's such a shabout Everleigh.
To think she'd end her life by jumping off a building at the height of her fame. It must've been hard for Ms.
Garcia.
As she spoke, Lindsey suddenly paused, an idea dawning on her.
She turned to Sumner, examining his face intently.
She'd never thought about it before, but now, looking closely, she noticed Sumner's eyes bore a striking resemblance to Everleigh's.
