When There Is Nothing Left But Love

The factory was abandoned, and the people who once lived in the alley moved. As Bradley had been awarded tens of thousands for his efforts, he was about to move to somewhere else with his wife and daughter.

Right on the night before he moved, Bradley Markle and his family were admitted to the office for food poisoning. At the same time, someone had bombed the processor of the abandoned factory.

As it was a deserted factory, not many cared about what happened to it. After Bradley and his family stayed in the hospital for three days, all but one died—his daughter. She had survived, but she could not mentally function the same as before.

It was a small county – no one would bat an eye at the death of a family. However, I knew Bradley did not die from food poisoning. John Stovall had murdered him by sticking a needle into the top of his scalp. That was also the way the man’s wife had died.

However, Macy had not died because John saw me. Back then, I had just finished my exams, and I had gone to the hospital to visit Macy. At that time, I saw everything he did.

She survived, but for a long time, she could not bear to look at John.

I was not much better off than her. I was not even twenty at that time, but I had witnessed two people dying. After witnessing their deaths, I had a high fever for dozens of days before I recovered.

Neither Macy nor I ever mentioned it. We were young and foolish, and we never thought of calling the police. After that day, the thought of John hung over both Macy and me like death.

It lasted for two years. Later, Grandma was diagnosed with lung cancer. To save up for her medical fees, I sold the house and brought Grandma to J City. From then on, I kept her company while she underwent treatment as I studied.

Macy did not attend school. She had no friends nor family, so she came to J City to work.
