Chapter 283 Put On a Show
Lauren’s words left me feeling somewhat dazed.
“The car was completely wrecked. You were only saved because the airbags deployed and protected you. Plus, the truck hit the back of your car. You narrowly escaped a catastrophe!”
Lauren continued, her voice filled with concern. “If the timing had been just a bit off… It’s horrifying even
to think about!”
As I listened to Lauren’s account, I recalled that desperate press of the pedal. If the doctor’s assessment had been accurate, a slightly delayed reaction could have left me paralyzed, or worse, I might never have seen my family again.
It was shocking to see the accident report photos later. Stella visited my ward two days later, and I
admired her composure.
Stella entered, accompanied by a bodyguard, holding a big bouquet and carrying a basket of fruits. She walked in with the confidence of someone who owned the place.
I stared at her in disbelief, but she looked genuinely concerned as she quickly approached my bedside.
“Chlo, are you feeling better?” Her tone was heartfelt.
She grabbed my hand and asked me with tears in her eyes, “How did this accident happen? It scared
everyone half to death.”
My mother quickly fetched a chair. “Please have a seat.”
On the other hand, Lauren wasted no time and shouted at the bodyguard, “Remove those items. She was just poisoned; we can’t have them in here!”
I fixed my eyes on Stella’s face, closely examining her expression. She didn’t seem the least bit guilty.
Stella instructed her bodyguard to take her gifts out, and the man left with the items.
