Chapter 807

Sharon’s expression tightened. “What happened to Thomas?”

“It seems he was in a car accident. He’s in the hospital now, still under emergency care.” Wendy rose to her feet, hesitated, then asked, “Sharon, do you want to come with me?”

Sharon didn’t hesitate. “Yes. I’ll go with you.”

By the time they reached the hospital, the doctors had finished treating Thomas.

His driving skills were excellent, so his injuries weren’t life-threatening. Still, he had a gash across his forehead that required several stitches, his head wrapped thickly in gauze.

Wendy asked at once, “Thomas, what happened? How did you end up in an accident?”

The car in question had been a reward from Sharon-she’d asked Wendy to buy it for him. It wasn’t an expensive model, about 15,000 dollars, meant simply as his everyday transportation. They had picked it up only yesterday. And yet today, Thomas had crashed.

Thomas didn’t answer immediately. His silence suggested something he couldn’t easily say.

Sensing the unease, Sharon pressed him. “Thomas, do you know something?”

After a few moments, he finally spoke. “My brakes suddenly failed.”

Sharon and Wendy exchanged a sharp look.


Wendy muttered, “Yesterday, when we brought it back, there wasn’t the slightest issue.”

Sharon asked, “Did you drive it back yourself?”

Wendy shook her head. “I’ve been too busy lately. I couldn’t pick it up personally, so I had the dealership
