Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 420

The police arrived at the scene of the accident shortly and pulled up the barricade tape.

The front car was a luxury car with a high-security factor, so only two of its lights were shattered, and the back sank in a little.

The back car, which was a van, was completely out of shape. The front was basically crushed as its engine smoked.

“Linda, how are you feeling?” Cordelia’s face was pale from the shock.

She thought her driving skill was decent and followed the traffic rules. Somehow, she was tailed while driving and could not even step on the brake in time when she was rammed, skidding dozens of meters away from the collision.

It was fortunate that Linda had been hugging a pillow in the car, so her belly was not hurt with the cushion blocking.

The ambulance came, and the paramedics hurriedly carried the two people in the van behind them out.

The police came over and knocked on their window to ask about their state. Seeing that they were alright, they were asked to do a checkup in the hospital before their statements were to be taken.

When Cordelia got out of the car, her legs were shaking, and she could barely stand. She felt dizzy looking at the crowd surrounding them.

A stretcher passed by in front of her—the girl on it was thin and pale. The only color she had was actually from the wound on her forehead.

“Victim, Kelly Tanner.” The police frowned after understanding the situation. “What is this? Info shows that she’s currently hospitalized. How did she get out?”

…

Joe and Mandy were anxious outside of the operation ward.

Kelly’s identity had been exposed because of the accident.

Joe asked for the driver to be severely punished while Mandy asked the police shakily, “We want you to investigate this… Who is behind this?!!”

“What?” Joe was stunned.

“Do you know that driver?” Mandy looked at him and raised her voice, “You don’t know him, and I don’t either! So, where is he from, and why did he abduct Kelly? Do you think it’s fine not figuring these out!?”

Nelly was farther away from them and felt her heart drum, cursing the driver she had bought over hundreds and thousands of times.

What was the guy doing? How could he let Kelly take over the steering wheel? And to run into Cordelia and Linda’s car!?

Not only would Zephyr get even with her, but Nicholas would not let her go either!

That day was incredibly long. The light above the doors of the operation ward only went out at 8:00 p.m.

Nelly made countless calls at the same time. It was only when she confirmed that the driver had shouldered all the blame that she was slightly relieved.

“Nelly.” Mona went to her discreetly. “I looked for the driver, and I agreed to his conditions. He just wants 30,000 dollars for his son. The sum—”

“What money!?” Nelly was snappy. “This is what he’s done, and he wants to ask for money from me?”

Mona was startled. “Nelly, he’s acting as your scapegoat!”

“Did I force him to be one?” Nelly said arrogantly, “Besides, I haven’t figured out what to do when that girl wakes up! I have a lot on my mind now. I’m not in the mood to send him money!”

Mona wanted to say more but chose to shut up upon seeing how angry Nelly was.

Soon enough, news about the Tanners having another daughter was all over the upper class.

Joe could only explain that Kelly had been ill, so she had never made a public appearance. Despite that, Mandy openly admitted it to the press, “It’s our mistake as her parents! Kelly has a congenital disease, and we don’t want people to say that we can’t produce a healthy child… It’s our selfishness and pride!”
