Chester ended the call after speaking. Catherine quickly found Charity’s number and dialed it, but she could not reach her. She hastily looked for Ryan and asked for Max’s number. Then, she requested the number of Charity’s bodyguard from Max. When she finally managed to contact Steven, she breathed a sigh of relief. “Where’s Eliza? I’m her friend. Is she okay?”Steven glanced at the woman sitting in the backseat. “She’s fine. She’s reading some documents. Do you have any business with her?”“Chester told me to tell her that Huxley has escaped. He might bother Eliza. He’s crazy, so you guys should pay attention,” Catherine said anxiously. “Where are you guys now?”“We’re heading to the supermarket.” Steven gazed at the overpass in front of him. “We’re crossing the overpass soon, and we have two bodyguards in the car. There are bodyguards watching the villa too. It should be fine.”“Anyway, you must be careful. Drive slower too. Tell Eliza not to go to the supermarket anymore
At this moment, it was as though the Range Rover had gone crazy. It hit the smaller cars that were blocking it out of its way and emerged, chasing after them like a bull. “F*ck, they must be crazy.” Steven punched the steering wheel. On a usual day, he could show off his driving skills in spacious places. However, he could not do that on the highway. There were many big cars. If things went badly, someone might die.The judge would not let them go after they caused a pile-up just because they were escaping for their lives. Steven was scared, but the people in the car behind him had gone mad. They did not even care about the commoners’ lives. Charity could confirm that the driver of the car behind them was definitely Huxley. The Range Rover quickly caught up with her Audi A8 like a cat chasing after a mouse. “Miss Robbins, what do we do now?” Steven asked in a serious manner. “If he really hits us, our car won’t be able to go up against a Range Rover. It even has a long
The surroundings were chaotic.Some were screaming.Some were helping to save others.Some were going all out to grab hold of the Audi so that it would not fall into the river.Charity faintly remembered that she was the first to be saved.Later, her memory of everything else was hazy.She vaguely heard some voices in her mind.“Isn’t she the A-list celebrity, Eliza?”“Probably.”“It looks like the Land Rover was trying to hunt her down to kill her.”“Hurry up, the one in the sports car seems to be badly injured.”“The psycho in the Land Rover came out again.” “...”After that, everything could not be heard.“Beep, beep…”Charity gradually woke up amid the sound of the defibrillator.She opened her eyes, only to find herself lying in the VIP ward.“Charity, you’re awake.” Max’s handsome face appeared in front of her with a concerned look.“Charity, are you feeling okay?” Catherine hurried over.“Charity, do you remember me? I’m Freya. You didn’t lose your memory and
Catherine and Freya’s eyes were filled with complicated feelings.It could be due to their identity and job nature that they considered Max the most upright man they had ever met.“But aren’t you worried that Charity…” Catherine bit her tongue.Max forced a smile. “She has never been with me. I can’t force her to be with me just because I’ve helped her. We’re friends. In the past, I helped her out of willingness. If she’s still not interested in me, I can’t force her either. Doing so will only cause the person I love to find me disgusting and despicable.”Catherine sighed. After a long time, she said, “Then… tell Charity about it after she’s awake.”“...Alright, thank you.” Max nodded. He turned around and entered the ward.“Why do you want him to let Charity know? He’ll even thank you.” At that moment, Freya had not come to her senses.“If he’s the one who says it at this time, it’ll make him seem magnanimous.” Catherine said with a smile, “In fact, he’s indeed magnanimous and
“I’ve been hiding a lot of things from you. What’s strange about it?”Catherine grinned and threw that remark casually. Her expression that was as cunning as a fox instantly made Shaun choke.“Cathy, I never hide anything from you,” Shaun said glumly.“But every time you file a lawsuit, do you tell me your litigant’s matters?” Catherine refuted. “I always keep other people’s secrets, not mine. I have no right to tell you about those. If you’re so great, you can ask Chester. Let’s see if he’ll tell you.”Shaun looked helpless. He felt as though his wife and buddies were boycotting him. “It’s unknown whether Chester will wake up.”“Don’t worry. He will.” After pausing for a moment, Catherine said, “They say bad people will never die.”Shaun was at a loss for words.Catherine continued to comfort him, saying, “Look how wicked Sarah was. She only died after causing so much trouble. Although Rodney has turned into a fool, he’s still fine. He’s always laughing and is happier than us.”
Charity tried her best to recall the situation after the accident.However, the more she recalled it, the more her head hurt.“Think about what happened to you.” Upon noticing that she suddenly began to breathe rapidly, Max frowned and anxiously leaped to his feet. “I’m going to call the doctor.”“No need.” Charity said, “I just want to recall what happened before I was in a coma.”“If you can’t recall it, just let it be.” Max revealed a look of pity. “A lot of surveillance footage has been leaked on the internet.”“Where’s Huxley?” Charity asked after some thought. “He’s dead.”Charity was speechless.Max gritted his teeth and said, “After the first time Chester hit the Land Rover, the passersby and traffic police rushed over to save you out of the Audi. But Huxley, who was covered in blood, dashed toward you while holding a knife. Chester was the one who eventually hit Huxley, which caused him to fall into the river. Chester was seriously injured only because he didn’t manag
Charity stayed quiet for some time before she said, “Thank you.“Thank you for living carefreely, and thank you for not making things difficult for me. Thank you for giving me sufficient space and not expecting anything from me.”“Stop saying thank you…”Max flashed a bright smile. His eyes were filled with helplessness and dejection. “Are we friends?” Charity opened her mouth with difficulty. “Where’s my phone?”“Here.”Max handed her a black phone. “You’ve been on the trending searches for a day.”“I’d like to watch videos of the crime scene.” Charity expressed her ultimate intention.“Go ahead. I’ll peel an orange for you.”Max took a paring knife and moved aside to peel an orange.Charity tapped open her phone and soon spotted eight trending searches related to her, namely: [Eliza Meets An Accident], [Chester Drives A Sports Car And Dashes Out], [Is Chester in Love With Eliza?], [Chester Is Under Emergency Treatment], [Chester Might Go to Jail After He Wakes Up], [Cheste
It was Charity’s first time seeing Madam Jewell.When Charity just got into a relationship with Chester, she thought that his mother would not like her if she got married to Chester one day.She never thought that she would one day meet Chester’s mother in this manner.Max rapidly stood in front of Charity. “Eliza just woke up. Madam Jewell, we’re very thankful to Chester for saving Eliza too. Having said that, saving Eliza was his own decision. It has nothing to do with Eliza.” Madam Jewell took a glimpse of Max, who stood up for Eliza, before she glanced at Eliza in the wheelchair. Then, she became more furious. “You usually use such a tactic to fool around with men, don’t you? You first did it to Monte, then it was my son’s turn. Now, it’s this man here. Eliza, you can do black magic, huh? Do you think I don’t know what kind of a person my son is? I’m sure you’re as scheming as Sarah who was sentenced previously. If anything happens to my son, I’ll surely make you suffer.” “P
