Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 643

Chapter 643 Into the River

"I'll come along, too." Sally was Kelly's biological mother, and she couldn't bear the thought of waiting around at home after knowing her daughter was in trouble. "Let's all go together, then." Adam was close to panicking at that point, so the two couples and Nelson rushed out of the house as quickly as possible. There were a few of them, so Adam suggested taking the seven-seater. He hopped into the driver's seat without asking the driver to come along and sped over to the location Kelly had sent him.

After Kelly got off her call with Adam, she sent Rosemi a text. She told Rosemi to get things ready as Adam was on his way out. 'Is your mother coming along?' Rosemi asked.

'They'll definitely come together,' Kelly replied with complete certainty. Even though their relationship was tense in recent times, Kelly was sure that both Adam and Charlotte would show up if she ever got into trouble. Daddy will always find a way to resolve all the issues I struggle with, Kelly thought. If only… I don't want to be so harsh toward them. But this is all Kendall's fault. I wouldn't have to kill Mommy and Daddy if Kendall didn't try to snatch my inheritance. I'll be left with nothing if I don't fight for this, Kelly thought. She couldn't stand the thought of being kicked out of the household without a single penny to her name.

Previously, before Kendall showed up, Kelly used to be her parents' precious daughter. Everyone had assumed that she would take over Parker Corporation. However, things changed after Kendall appeared in their lives. 'Alright. I'll update you once I've succeeded with my plan. The one you ran into is someone I've arranged, so if the plan fails, you can wait for Adam and Charlotte to show up before you send that person to the hospital. If everything goes well, you can just pay the victim some money to settle things. I've already paid the person on my end, so he won't try to mess with you,' Rosemi explained.

'Sure.' After sending a brief text to Rosemi, Kelly deleted all the messages they had exchanged. She felt rather conflicted as she waited for Rosemi to execute her plan. They're my adoptive parents, after all… They were the ones who nurtured me, gave me a quality life, and provided me with a good education. They might be more biased toward Kendall now, but I'm sure they'll still leave some stuff behind for me. I'm such an ungrateful child for doing this… Kelly lowered her head and glanced at her phone while the angel and the devil had a full-blown argument in her mind.

The devil told Kelly that she had to be heartless to be successful. If you want to get half of the Parker Family's inheritance, you'll need them to be dead! If they don't die, you'll only get the amount they're willing to spare for you. Meanwhile, the angel told her to show more gratitude toward her family. They found their biological daughter, and it makes complete sense for them to hand everything down to their biological daughter. Any sane person would do the same thing! Furthermore, judging by the amount of care they have for you, they would probably leave you some stuff as well. Is there a need to kill them over such a matter? Do you think you'd get away with this just because you have it all planned out? You can't keep a secret forever—you should not do things that you're going to be ashamed of.

Both the angel and the devil argued among themselves for a while, but greed, hatred, and resentment got the upper hand in the fight. In the end, Kelly didn't call her adoptive father at all. She watched as the time ticked by.

Meanwhile, Adam, who had no idea that he was driving his passengers to the end of their lives, sped along the highway. "Where did Kelly's accident happen, Adam?" Charlotte was seated in the passenger seat, and she lowered the car window as the air in the car felt rather stuffy. She wasn't sure if it was the air or if she was just overly anxious. Adam lowered the window on the driver's side as well.

Once the windows were lowered, a strong breeze gushed into the car as a result of Adam's speedy driving. He felt calmer with the wind against his face, so he ended up opening the sunroof as well. "We'll arrive after crossing the Orapolis Bridge in front," he replied.

Charlotte gazed at the Orapolis Bridge ahead of them. Beneath the bridge was a river that ran through the town—it was a wide river with deep waters that allowed boats to travel in it.

Adam drove the car onto the bridge and was halfway across it when a large truck on the opposite lane seemed to lose control. The truck swerved and spun in the direction of Adam's car. It ran over the traffic barrier that separated both roads before charging directly toward Adam's car. The people in the rest of the cars on Adam's side of the road were shocked to witness this scene, and Adam was just as stunned. As he saw the truck charging toward him, he instinctively spun his steering wheel in the opposite direction to avoid the large vehicle.

However, he spun the steering a little too much, and his car ended up hitting the barrier on the other side of the road. The barrier was too weak and flimsy to handle the sudden impact of multiple vehicles—the cars in front and behind Adam had ended up turning in the same direction as he did. As a result, all three of the cars that were trying to avoid the truck ended up hitting the barrier and falling more than ten feet down into the river below them.

The driver of the truck managed to brake his vehicle just in time, so it didn't fall into the river with the cars. Meanwhile, a few of the cars that had been further down the road tried their best to stop their vehicles just before they hit the truck. Some of the cars were speeding a little too fast, so they ended up rear-ending the cars in front of them. Bang! Bang! Bang! Multiple cars ended up hitting each other. Soon enough, traffic began to build up on both sides of the road.
