Chapter 336

The man who had jumped off the building was called George Zucker. He was a primary school teacher. His wife was a nurse at the county hospital.

They were a diligent and hardworking couple. They weren’t wealthy, but they lived a comfortable and happy life.

Their daughter was born with Asperger’s syndrome, yet they had never complained. The couple had even actively encouraged and nurtured her talents and strengths to help her integrate into society better. She shone in her areas of expertise.

They weren’t at fault for doing that.
