My Parents Neglected Me Until I Died Novel by yueji

The brightly lit amusement park was deserted.

Quinn Ortega sat alone on the Ferris wheel, cradling an urn in his arms.

I stood in the shadows, feeling a whirlwind of emotions.

Quinn Ortega had been manipulated by Audrey Macy and had not participated in the money laundering scheme, so he was quickly released.

However, his public arrest and the subsequent scandal involving Ortega Corporation had caused a massive upheaval.

To appease shareholders and the public, Ortega Corporation had to dismiss Quinn Ortega from his position as General Manager.

The chairman had instructed Quinn to stay at home for reflection, but instead, Quinn had exhumed my grave, taken my urn, and rented out the amusement park, bringing my urn onto the Ferris wheel.

What was this? Was he hoping for a ghostly romance?

Unfortunately, Quinn couldn’t see me.

He tenderly caressed the urn as if it were a beloved companion.

“Nicole, I’ve failed you in the past, and I didn’t fulfill my promises, but I’ll make it up to you.”

He gestured toward the outside. “Look, this is the Ferris wheel you always wanted to ride. I’ve brought you here; you can see all of Ankara from here. Do you like it?”

Seeing the excitement on Quinn’s face left me speechless. He didn’t expect an answer, instead gazing blankly outside. “Don’t worry, you won’t be alone. I’ll join you soon.”

I didn’t grasp what was happening until the Ferris wheel reached its peak.

Quinn pulled a folding knife from his pocket and made a deep cut on his hand. My eyes widened in shock.

Quinn pressed his face against the urn, smiling gently. “Nicole, I’m coming to be with you now.”

No, don’t come. I don’t need your company.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

I desperately tried to intervene, but I was powerless to stop him.

Suddenly, the Ferris wheel seemed to spin faster. From above, I saw Yolanda Robinson and Duncan Shepard standing below. I sighed with relief.

Yolanda and Duncan quickly opened the door. They were taken aback by Quinn’s appearance. Duncan rushed in, pulling Quinn out and using his belt to stem the bleeding. Yolanda tried to retrieve my urn, but Quinn suddenly jumped up, attempting to flee. Duncan restrained him.

“Stop this nonsense, Nicole Hayward is dead. How long are you going to keep this up?” Duncan couldn’t help but punch Quinn.

Unrepentant, Quinn clung to the urn and shouted back, “Nicole isn’t dead. She’s right here!”

Yolanda, unwilling to engage with Quinn, reached for the urn and angrily berated him, “Nicole is dead. Why can’t you let her rest? The cemetery manager called me, and I couldn’t believe you really stole Nicole’s ashes. Can’t you just leave her alone?”

Yolanda wrested the urn from Quinn’s grasp and held it carefully.

“Give it back! Return the ashes!” Quinn struggled fiercely, reaching out to Yolanda.

Ignoring him, Yolanda said to Duncan, “Take him to the hospital. I’ll return the ashes to the cemetery.”

In a sudden turn of events, Quinn broke free from Duncan and lunged at Yolanda, forcefully snat**g the urn.

“What are you doing?” Yolanda shouted in fury as she watched Quinn open the urn and scoop a handful of ashes into his mouth.

Laughing, he said, “Now I’m part of Nicole.”

He’s lost his mind!

That was the thought on all our minds.
