After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 402

Chapter 402 A Car Crash

Irritable, Susan picked up her phone.
The moment she entered the game, she heard Manuel saying, "That's not an impulse for me. I'm serious about it."
Susan felt a skipping of her heartbeat. She moved her eyes to Manuel, seeing him leave the room.
Damn it.
Who cared about it?
She once felt annoyed by his ignorance, now she felt more annoyed by his seriousness!
She even felt bad about herself.
Angrily she got up from the bed and went bathing. She would never be tempted again by this man, Susan told herself. She didn't like him, anyway.
When Susan came out, her hair was wet. She wiped her hair and casually blow it with a hair dryer for a few minutes, and then went back to bed.
Meanwhile, Manuel came back to the room and was about to take a shower. He fetched the hair dryer from the bathroom and helped her dry her hair when he noticed her hair was still moist.
Susan took a glance at Manuel.
"You'll get sick if you don't get your hair dried completely." Manuel said.
Susan pursed her lips and allowed him to continue. She didn't realize when she got used to his tenderness in various situations. Only did Manuel go to shower after he dried her hair.
Staring at the door of the bathroom, Susan's mind flew away. She was wondering whether Manuel ever had relationships with others or not. She could feel a passion for him every time Manuel flirted with her. The desire was not aggressive but was subtle.
She forced herself to stop thinking about it. She could not be moved by his tenderness in these days. And she could never give in to his villainy of forcing her to marry him.
Susan picked up the phone and wanted to read some news online.
All of a sudden, Henry's name popped up on her phone and it surprised her.
They hadn't kept in touch with each other for quite a long time. And it was strange for him to call her up at such a late time.
The call from him stirred her feelings somehow since he was her dream person who would never be hers after all.
Eventually, she picked it up. "Hi, Henry,"
"Good evening, Miss. The owner of this phone had a car crash and was seriously injured. We are sending him to the Kensbury Central Hospital for rescue now and we hope you could come. You must be very close to him since your phone number is saved in the shortcut list starting with the number 1. If possible, please inform of his family as well!"
"Is, is he OK?" Susan was too nervous to speak clearly.
"There is blood all over here. As for the specific physical condition, it can only be known after being examined by doctors. So please come to the hospital as soon as possible!" Then, the phone immediately hung up.
Susan was scared when hearing "there is blood all over here."
She flung off the covers and rushed out without thinking twice.
Henry was an orphan and he didn't have a family. She couldn't imagine if he died.
Others in the house had gone back to their rooms. So nobody knew Susan picked up the car key at the entrance and rushed out.
Her mind was full of images of the blood of Henry. Worries blurred her version when thinking of Henry was alone in this world.
She got into the car, stepped on the gas and flashed away. She was in a hurry to go to the hospital, crying worriedly.
At the moment, Kensbury City was also in heavy rain. Susan forgot about all the risks, and her mind was only occupied by Henry.
Manuel didn't see Susan when he got out of the bathroom. He thought she was in the living room drinking water so he didn't pay much attention.
Sitting on the bed for a quite while, he was aware of something had gone wrong.
Manuel got worried. He hurried to get himself in the wheelchair, opened the door and looked for Susan in the living room.
He still couldn't find her. So he knocked on the door of Tia, "Do you know where Susan is?"
"Didn't she stay in the room?"
Then Manuel knocked on Justine's door quickly, "Mom, did you see Susan?"
Justine was pretty puzzled to be asked so.
There was something wrong.
Manuel gritted his teeth and hurried to the entrance, only to find the car key was missing. Then he made haste to head back to the bedroom with a pale face.
"What's up Manuel? Did Susan go out?!" Justine was scared.
Manuel didn't respond, instead, he picked up his phone and called Susan.
The phone rang for such a long time but there was no one picking it up. He kept calling over and over again. Finally, his call was through.
Manuel asked in a hurry, "Susan, where are you now?"
"I'm on the way to the hospital. Henry had a car crash."
"Pull over the car and stay calm. I'll pick you up later and take you there."
"No, I can do it myself."
"It's pouring down outside. Drive safely."
"I will." Susan responded in a cold tone, "Manuel, don't attempt to stop me. I'll see Henry today whatever happens."
"I didn't mean to stop you. I just want you to be safe..."
"Leave me alone!"
Susan hung up the phone immediately. At this moment, Manuel's call would only make her more irritable. Never would she stay calm when thinking Henry was in the hospital alone. So she didn't care about Manuel's words.
She wiped her tears with her hands.
Just as she finished, a car with a high beam suddenly came from the front. Susan felt a daze in her version by the bright light. In an instant, she grabbed the steering wheel and drove over, and a guardrail appeared. She intended to jam on the brakes to hold back but failed due to the slippery road.
All at once, the car hit the guardrail with a sickening crash. There was a stinging pain in her belly.
She blacked out and lost consciousness.
"Where did Susan go" Justine asked in a worried voice.
"She's going to the hospital." Manuel tried to calm down and said to Justine, "I'm going to find her."
"Why she went there?" Justine looked at her son pushing the wheelchair at an amazing speed.
"Henry had a car crash."
"I knew it. It was Henry again... Wait! I go with you!" Justine followed up in a hurry.
Luckily, Justine's car was here, or it would be a problem to hail a taxi at this hour, coupled with the pouring rain here.
Both of them got in the car.
"Manuel, can you drive?" Justine asked with fright when she saw Manuel get into the driving seat.
