Chapter 298
Chen Li’s car accident happened at two o’clock in the morning. It collided with a passing truck. The police initially identified it as a wine truck. At present, there were no casualties except for Chen Li. There was no more information in the newspaper, so it was impossible to know how Chen Li’s injury was.
Nelissa looked at the blurred black-and-white photo in the newspaper. The scene of the car accident was very messy, and the front of the private luxury car was damaged. Nelissa felt inexplicably cold. The car she saw at the entrance of the hospital last night was really Chen Li’s.
She grabbed Edward’s snow-white cuffs with her little white fingers and asked him uneasily, “The car is already like that, how can she be fine?”
“I can’t get better.” Edward didn’t say anything. He raised his hand to touch Nelissa’s head, lifted the bangs on her forehead with his beautiful fingers, and kissed the scar on her forehead carefully. This was what he had done recently. It was not bad to see her scars fade little by little every day.
He said, “I’m not going to let Noelle come back to the hospital for Nathan. If they really miss you, I’ll use the computer to video it with you.” Then he looked into Nelissa’s eyes. Looking closely, Nelissa’s skin was really white, and then it turned red little by little under his gaze. Nelissa didn’t open her eyes, but she was still so shy.
She was very cute.
Edward’s heart skipped a beat. He lowered his head and kissed Nelissa’s eyebrows. His lips were full of warmth. He said to Nelissa, “Take good care of yourself in the hospital. You’d better not go out alone. It may be a little stuffy, but I will always be with you.”
Nelissa nodded obediently and listened to Edward. She leaned against Edward’s chest and asked, “Are you worried that Chen Li’s car accident will affect me? Is there anything wrong with this matter?”
Edward shook his head. His slender fingers wrapped around Nelissa’s long black hair. “I can’t be sure. People who are drunk can do anything. But she saw you and Anna last night and had a car accident that night. When things are connected, people will associate them with something unusual.”
Nelissa opened her mouth in surprise. “Do you suspect… that it was done by someone?”
Edward just smiled and didn’t say anything. He picked up the chopsticks and picked up Nelissa’s bowl to eat breakfast. He asked her to eat more, so that she didn’t have to worry about anything that would affect her mood.
Seeing his mysterious look, Nelissa knew that it was useless to ask more questions. Chen Li had nothing to do with her. To be honest, Chen Li regarded her as a thorn in her side. Now that something had happened to Chen Li, it was beneficial to her. Although she also felt that something was wrong, Chen Li did not get into any trouble early or later. However, after she met Anna, something bad happened to her. There was something unusual about it, which always made her very uneasy.
In the circle of the rich and powerful, people had complicated connections and got involved in too many interests disputes. In the past, her mother had told her that this circle was big and small. The two people who seemed impossible to have a relationship might have a deep friendship behind them. Therefore, before speaking in this circle, she had to get to the bottom of everyone’s relationship. Otherwise, she should not talk nonsense. Otherwise, she would suffer a great loss in the future.
In the past, she did not understand the meaning of her mother’s words. She only felt that it was too complicated. But now, she understood. People’s hearts were unpredictable, and wealthy families were very complicated. Many times, she did not know how she had offended anyone.
Nelissa drank the Chinese porridge and wondered if Sophie would come back. Chen Li’s car accident was not a trivial matter. She looked up and asked Edward.
Edward replied, “She will come back sooner or later. Chen Li has already hired a lawyer to file a lawsuit with Ryan. Now Chen Li has an accident. It’s okay if it’s not serious, but it’s serious. She has to deal with it on behalf of Chen Li.”Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Nelissa nodded, half aware of what was going on. She sighed and said, “Now that we’re married, we still have to divide our property in court, just like enemies. Will we be like this in the future?” She changed from the most intimate person next to her into an enemy who was on guard.
Edward frowned and said with a sullen face, “Firstly, Chen Li and Ryan are not married. Secondly, I can’t divorce you for the rest of my life. It took me a lot of effort to coax you to marry me. You’d better not want to divorce me.”
Nelissa nodded and said, “Yes, I don’t want to.” She raised her head with a sweet smile and kissed Edward’s handsome and gloomy face. She listened to him in a friendly manner, and then he gave her a little good look. Obviously, he was angry just now.
He had already treated her so well, she shouldn’t have questioned him.
***
Chen Li’s car accident was very serious. Although someone had called the police in time, the whole car had changed. It was difficult to start the rescue work because of being squeezed inside. She found a professional to open the door and dragged Chen Li out. At that time, Chen Li had fallen into a serious coma with blood all over her body and her life was hanging.
Although he had been sent to a nearby hospital for rescue, he had not yet gotten through the danger. The hospital had already contacted Chen Li’s family. Ryan came to know the situation, but his relationship with Chen Li was not related. The signature part needed to be signed by Chen Li’s relatives. He called Sophie overnight, but he couldn’t get through to her.
It was not until noon that someone contacted Sophie. Ryan asked her to come back now, and she quickly agreed. She wanted to come back, and the place outside was not fun at all. It was not as exciting as the bustling city of Haleston City. If her mother Chen Li had not stopped her from coming back, she would have been unable to stay any longer.
Now that her father asked her to come back, she immediately booked a ticket online. She was not worried about Chen Li’s injury. Her current medical skills were so good that she could hire a good doctor if she had money. A good doctor could save her life, and the poor could only wait for death.
Sophie thought that it would be good if something happened to Chen Li, and it would also be good for her father, Ryan, to be more concerned and nervous. Perhaps they might be able to restore their relationship, and they would not have to break up so miserably.
In fact, Sophie didn’t care whether her father Ryan would marry another woman or not. Anyway, she was Ryan’s biological daughter. Even if Ryan was really pregnant, it was impossible for him to abandon his own daughter. This was not pleasant to hear if it was spread out, but she didn’t want her biological mother Chen Li to be too miserable, so as not to be laughed at.
To be able to save her, Sophie still wanted to save her. After all, her stepmother was not as good as her own.
In the evening, Sophie returned to Haleston City. There was a driver outside the airport to pick her up. She handed the luggage to the driver, got in the car, and went to the hospital to see how Chen Li was.
The environment of the hospital was not very good. After seeing Ryan, Ryan asked her father why he did not transfer to a better hospital. Ryan did not intend to transfer Chen Li to another hospital. His current identity was not suitable to have too much contact with Chen Li. It was best to keep a low profile. No one knew the maintenance relationship between him and Chen Li.
Ryan didn’t say that he would be transferred to another hospital, so she didn’t say anything. She had always listened to her father.
The current situation of Chen Li needed relatives to donate blood in order to perform the second operation. The normal hospital’s blood storage was always in short supply. Sophie was the only relative of Chen Li. And here, the doctor asked her to prepare for the blood donation.
Sophie agreed and followed the doctor to the blood room. After drinking a glass of water with sugar, she lay down and stretched out her white arm to donate blood…
