Enchanted Nightfall: Falling for Destiny

Chapter 53

At the same time, outside the ICU ward of the hospital, the entire Young family was gathered. Lilian had fainted from crying a couple of times, and Sean seemed to have aged a decade in just moments – their only son lay injured inside.

Lilian’s eyes were nearly swollen shut from tears, and her face twisted with frantic grief as she screamed at the police officer who had come to inquire. “That monster who hit my son – he must pay with his life! My boy is so badly hurt; why should he still be alive?”

Matthew’s condition was grave: a fractured skull, a left leg shattered into pieces, a ruptured liver, internal bleeding in his abdomen, and a broken spine. The doctors were uncertain if he would ever wake up.

Even if he did, chances were he’d never stand again. In short, the Youngs‘ only son was, for all intents and purposes, ruined. The blow to Lilian was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky.

The officer was irritated and helpless as he reiterated, “Mrs. Young, the cause of this accident was primarily your son’s failure to obey traffic laws. He was speeding and ran a red light, crashing into a vehicle that was moving legally. Your son should bear the main responsibility.”

Internally, the officer felt that the SUV’s driver was an innocent victim caught in the crossfire.

Sean, holding back a sobbing Lilian, said, “My son has loved motorbikes since he was young. He’s never had an accident in all these years, never even a ticket. I think there’s something fishy about this accident.”

The officer frowned, “If you don’t trust our findings, you can check the surveillance footage from the intersection yourself. We’ve based our conclusions on that footage and a detailed technical analysis of the crash site. If you insist on questioning this, there’s nothing more we can do.”

The officer left after explaining the situation. The Young family members sat in heavy silence.

Sean asked Miranda to help Lilian get some rest.

Rachel had been quiet until the mother and daughter left, and then she asked, “Sean, have you heard from Quintessa recently?”

At the mention of Quintessa, Sean’s brow furrowed, “Why bring her up all of a sudden?”
