Chapter 190
Olivia had seen the bodies of old deceased people in the family. But those were different compared to this gruesome body.
Even though she didn’t get a clear look at Belle’s face, it was enough to make her gag.
Jack patted her on the back to help her breathe. “Are you okay?”
“I’m sorry,” Olivia said apologetically.
“I can understand. People don’t normally see dead bodies, much less decomposed ones.”
“Why aren’t you afraid?”
“I got used to seeing them.” Jack’s voice was calm. There was a distant look in his eyes. “And living humans are more horrifying than the dead ones.”
Olivia didn’t know what he had been through.
He only looked a few years older than her, but he was shrouded in mystery.
She knew that he had to have been through a lot of suffering to become like that.
Maybe she wasn’t the only one that was suffering in the world. Olivia pushed down the fear in her heart and turned on the flashlight.
“I’ll shine the light for you. Take a look quickly.”
“Okay. Close your eyes and leave the rest to me,” Jack ordered calmly.
Olivia quickly closed her eyes to not delay the process.
Jack put his hand on her wrist. His voice came from beside her. “I’m sorry.”
He held her wrist and led her before the body. His hand felt especially warm in the cold room.
Olivia heard rustling sounds again. It was probably Jack taking off the body’s pants.
Luckily, the pants from the psychiatric hospital were loose. It didn’t take him much effort to get it off.
Although she couldn’t see, Olivia could imagine Jack’s progress in her mind based on the sounds she heard.
She was holding the flashlight high.
“I’m done,” Jack told Olivia. “Don’t open your eyes yet. Let me put the body back inside.”
Olivia asked impatiently, “How was it?”
