Crushed Affections (Dominic and Bella)

Chapter 427 Goodbye Also Means See You Again

Soon, Cara drove up, and Bella waved at Felix. She smiled and said, "Goodbye."

Felix's smile was a little pale. "Goodbye," he echoed, but his words felt uncertain. It was as if he was questioning whether "goodbye" truly meant they'd see each other again.

Cara was driving cautiously on a wide road, staying under 50 mph in the city despite not having many cars. Bella and Cara had this in common. Bella was naturally cautious, while Cara was careful and worried about potential accidents. As they approached an intersection, a car suddenly shot out from the side, startling both Bella and Cara. In theory, they should've been able to avoid the collision by hitting the brakes immediately, but for some reason, they still crashed! The violent impact sent their car skidding sideways, nearly hitting the car behind them. Finally, the car's front end collided with the median, stopping.

The jarring shock left Bella dizzy. She felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, and a cold sweat broke out all over her.

Cara, still recovering from the shock, didn't care about the blood oozing from the cut on her forehead. She hurriedly asked, "Ms. Jones, are you okay?"

Bella clutched her stomach, her voice trembling. "It hurts... Call 911. Take me to the hospital!"
