Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 124

Chapter 124 A Dreadful Set of Circumstances

Jean woke up in a hospital room. A doctor held up a flashlight. “Look to the left. Look up… How many fingers is this? I’m your attending physician, Dr. Fuller. Can you hear my voice?”

Jean watched as the doctor waved his hand toward her. The doctor’s lips were moving, yet there was not a single sound.

She turned blankly to the nurse documenting her vital signs, the medical equipment, and the trees swaying outside the window. She stroked the blanket in her lap and shook her head slowly.

I can’t hear anything. The doctor faced the nurse. “Contact her family members. We need to examine her again.”

“Yes, Dr. Fuller.” Jean peered through the door and saw a few people waiting outside. She was exhausted, and with the effects of her medications, she went out like a light.

When she opened her eyes again, it was nighttime. She still couldn’t hear a thing. Jean held on to the nurse, changing out a drip. She spoke slowly. “How’s the person who came with me?”

“Are you talking about Ben Ludwig?” The nurse was about to explain when she realized that Jean couldn’t hear. She took out her phone and typed it in.

Jean’s hand trembled as she read the nurse’s explanation. Ben had realized the brakes weren’t working when they passed the first bend. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

They wouldn’t be able to stop for a pit stop even if they tried to. In the emergency, Ben could only work with Jean to slow down the car by downshifting.

However, it wasn’t working for them at the speed they were going at. Ben made a bold decision, hoping they would survive. He made sure Jean held on, and he spun the steering wheel. The car rushed up the low slopes by the track.

He knew that there was an obstacle at that spot. As the car rammed into it, he shielded Jean. The image of the scene kept repeating in Jean’s mind.

She would never forget the words he whispered in her ear. A tear fell from her eye.

She looked at the phone screen again. Ben Ludwig’s legs and spinal nerves are affected. He has undergone surgery and is now under observation, but he’s not out of danger yet. Spinal nerves?

Jean had a bad feeling. Before she could return the phone, the door was hurled open. Farra barged in with a few people behind her. “You scum, why are you already awake? You should die…”

Farra yelled fiercely. She looked daggers at Jean as if she wanted to shred her apart. But Jean didn’t hear a single word. She blankly watched as Farra lunged towards her and yanked her hair, ragingly angry.

Jean’s thoughts became clearer with the pain. Did something happen to Ben?

“Madam, please calm down.” A few people tried to pull Farra away. Farra wailed and eventually collapsed on the floor, sobbing. Jean raised her quivering hand and pulled the nurse. “Ben, what happened to Ben?”
