Chapter 197 197: Someone tried to kill him

"Aunt Susan!" Eveline's voice pulled her out of her thoughts, and she saw her move closer to her.

"I believe you should take leave. I'll be staying with dad, and Gabriel is also here."

Susan looked at her thoughtfully before nodding.

She knew Eveline was safe with Gabriel, so she didn't have to worry.

"Okay, but I'll be here tomorrow morning with breakfast. "Master will not like the taste of bland hospital food," she murmured, and Eveline smiled at her concern before seeing her go.

By the time Susan left, Gabriel had returned answering a phone call.

"What happened?" Eveline inquired, noting the anxious expression on his face.

"It was a fatal accident. We're lucky that nothing happened to Uncle or the driver."

Gabriel had already requested that the police investigate the accident when Eveline notified him about it.

"Look how badly the car is crushed," he remarked, showing her a picture sent by the police department who were working on the case.

Eveline gaped at the horrible image and looked at Gabriel with alarm.

"How can this happen? I mean, the driver couldn't be this careless," she asked.

"I know, that's why we need to wait for both of them to regain consciousness so they can give the cops some insight of the accident." He said.

Eveline nodded in agreement, despite her thoughts lingering on the picture she had just seen.

After some time, she strolled into her father's room and found him sound asleep.

She was relieved that nothing horrible had happened and that he had only a fracture and some minor injuries. Because the sight of his car being badly crashed made her stomach turn.
