Screech.
The friction between the sports car and the ground gave out a deafening screeching sound.
Angela felt as if a dark shadow had flashed past. After that, she heard a loud crash, and a person was flung out one to two metres away by the collision, and crashed onto the ground.
Lorenzo had pushed Greyson aside, and he had been knocked down by the car. He laid in the pool of blood, unconscious.
…
At the hospital.
Six hours had passed, the door to the emergency ward had not opened.
Four people sat on the chairs or the ground of the emergency ward in silence.
“Go back and rest first, if not your body will not be able to take it.” Angela’s hand was icy cold, and James clutched her hand, holding it tirelessly.
Angela shook her head, “He is such a selfish person, why did he…”
She had never thought that her dad would save someone in this situation. In reality, she felt that if he hadn’t shoved someone else to save himself, it was already considered very rare.
On the reason why, she would perhaps never know anymore.
Creak!
The door to the emergency ward opened.
Greyson quickly stood up and rushed over, “Doctor, how is my dad?”
“We have tried our best.” The doctor said, “We will observe him over these three days, if he can make it through, he will be paralyzed. If not… you can prepare to send him off.”
He made a gesture towards the assistant and doctor inside, and they pushed Lorenzo out.
The doctor also got ready to leave.
“Doctor, please don’t do this!” Greyson blocked his path, “I will pay you money! Let me know how much you want! I am Greyson, the young master of the Chante Group, do you know that? If you can save my dad, I can give you anything!”
“I’m sorry, I have already tried my best. Also, Mr. Chante would like to rest, it’s better if you stay quiet.” The doctor pushed past Greyson, gave a sigh, and left.
The assistant and the doctors pushed the patient’s trolley into the lift.
“I’m sorry, I…” Luna’s face was pale as she walked towards Greyson, wanting to comfort him.
But when her hand touched him, he flung it off. She staggered backwards several steps. It was lucky that Angela stabilized her, if not she would have fallen on the floor.
“Get lost !” Greyson roared. He turned around and walked in big steps towards the lift.
Angela let go of Luna, her expression cold, “I don’t care whether you wanted to do this yourself, or if someone had instructed you. I won’t follow up with this matter. Please go, and don’t ever come back.”
Luna licked her dry and chapped lips. Looking at Angela, she opened her mouth as if wanting to say something.
But in the end, she didn’t say anything. She only looked in the direction in which Greyson had gone, and left.
Angela looked at her back, her mouth open, like a fish out of water, breathing heavily.
“You only have to take care of yourself, don’t have to punish yourself for other people’s mistakes.” James wrapped her in his arms, and kissed her hair, in his eyes were sadness.
He wasn’t afraid of anything in this world, he was only afraid that she would be sad.
The both of them went to the intensive care unit to take a look at Lorenzo. His eyes were shut tight, and there was no hint of him waking up any moment.
Greyson stood by the side. In just a short span of half a day, his stubble could already be seen. He stared at the man on the bed, but his eyes were unfocused. It made the people who were looking at this scene feel sad.
“There’re so many matters going on at the company, you go ahead with them first, I will stay at the hospital for a while more.”
When James took over the 25% shares in the company, he had accidentally found out a secret account. From the looks of it, Lawson had been using the company funds to help a few small companies, and no reason had been attributed to that yet.
What’s more, the company accounts had also not tallied. It was also almost time to report the financial situation to shareholders, that’s why the situation was slightly difficult.
