Chapter 253

A sleek black Bentley, like a graceful yet urgent beast, tore through the night.

The hustle and bustle of neon lights outside the window formed dazzling streaks of color, with the howling wind and roar of the engine all kept at bay. Inside the car, the only sound was Curtis’ heartbeat, pounding violently in his chest.

Arriving at the hospital, he barely bothered to park properly before hurrying out.

All eight elevators in the lobby were nowhere in sight and he couldn’t wait a second longer, turning into the stairwell to stride upwards.

Curtis, slightly out of breath, asked, “Where’s Leanne?”

Amy didn’t get to finish before Curtis had already turned and was striding away.

The night streets were jam-packed, headlights merging into a long river. The drivers’ frustration equally congested.

Curtis’ speed was a bit reckless, not nearly as fast as his heart felt like it would burst. He handled the steering wheel quickly and skillfully, dodging in and out of the traffic.

He crossed the congested roads through the dwindling city lights.
