Regret Came Too Late

Chapter 480

The car showed no sign of slowing down-not even for a second.

If Lyle hadn't reacted fast enough by shoving Grace several feet to the side, they would undoubtedly have been sent flying through the air.

Instead, the two cars collided with a thunderous crash, and smoke immediately began to rise.

Anger boiled within Lyle as he stormed forward to confront Jodie. However, Grace's hand shot out, grabbing his arm before he could take a step.

The same person who had shown no fear moments before was now panicking with tears building in her eyes. The sight was made more gruesome by the blood seeping from the wound on her forehead where she had hit the windshield.
