Maja suddenly sat on the ground, retreating several steps. Her body felt weak.
Doctors rushed to lift Leo, but the blood was pouring out more.
Maja even saw the bloody hole in his body where the lamppost had pierced through. She felt sick; she bent over
and dry heaved a few times, but nothing came out.
Leo was pronounced dead on the spot.
She sat in silence, sweat pouring down her face.
After a while, she saw Leo’s body being lifted. A doctor went to lift his legs, then realized they were gone and
quickly changed directions.
The body was covered with a white sheet as it was carried past her.
Maja immediately tried to get up to look but found herself unsteady, falling down as soon as she got up.
After several attempts, a nurse finally came over to help her.
“How is he? How is he?”
“I’m sorry, he’s gone.”

The doctors began to ask about body disposition, Maja couldn’t utter a word.
Half an hour later, she finally arranged for a funeral home.

was probably here for a second round of negotiations.
“Ms. Pennyfeather, two million dollars is just too much.”
“Buzz off.”
Maja’s voice was calm as she got into her car.
