The Bond Between Us novel Chapter 254

Anastasia was taken aback when she got the call from the police station. After finding out the reason, she was in total disbelief. Melinda was dead.

Just yesterday, she was having tea with Melinda, and now, Melinda was gone.

As the last person to have seen Melinda, Anastasia was questioned and brought to the police station. Still in shock, her first question to the police was, "Is Melinda really dead?"

The police responded, "We've confirmed the identity of the deceased. It's Melinda who worked at Neon Dreams."

"How did she die?" Anastasia asked incredulously, "She was fine yesterday. How could she be dead now?"

"It appears to be suicide." The police explained, "At one in the morning, Melinda jumped off the roof of Neon Dreams. Can you tell us why you met with her yesterday and what you two discussed? We need to know the details."

Neon Dreams was a towering building. Melinda jumped from it and committed suicide? Anastasia wanted to know what drove Melinda to end her life in such a drastic way.

She took some time to process the news, and then answered the police, "It was Melinda who asked to meet up yesterday."

She recounted most of their conversation from yesterday to the police.

While taking notes, the police asked, "You're saying Melinda became very emotional after receiving a phone call?"

"Yes, that's right." Anastasia said, "Melinda started crying. She said her family was buying a house and her brother was getting married. After she calmed down, I called her a cab and sent her home. I haven't contacted her since."

And the day after they parted ways, Anastasia heard the news that Melinda had jumped to her death. From the police, Anastasia learned that Melinda's fall from the high-rise building had left her unrecognizable and killed her instantly. In the prime of her life, she ended it in the most drastic way.
