Chapter 67
The tremendous impact forced the driver of the cement truck to step on the brake and come to a stop. The driver got out of the truck and looked at the sinking car, his legs trembling as he fell to his knees and called the police.
“Hello, is this the traffic police? I just had an accident and the car… The car… It fell into the water! Please come and rescue them!”
Cole, who was in the Mercedes-Benz, could only think of one possibility while he was sinking. Had someone discovered his search for the truth and intentionally tried to kill him to silence him? If this was just an accident, did it not seem too coincidental?
Cole could swim, so he held his breath and tried to push open the car door.
A man wearing a wetsuit and carrying an air tank appeared outside the passenger seat. He smashed the window of the car with a sharp glass breaker, opened the door after the window shattered, quickly picked up several DNA test documents from inside, and turned to swim away from the car.
At first, Cole thought it was a kind person coming to rescue him, but he now realized that the person had a motive and came straight for the documents. These DNA test documents were crucial evidence, so Cole tried swimming toward the man.
Cole and the man wrestled in the water. The man did not want to engage with him for long and fiercely smashed the back of Cole’s head with the glass breaker. Instantly, blood filled the water, creating a dense red color. Cole fell into unconsciousness due to the heavy blow.
The professional diver with an air tank on his back took a deep look at the unconscious Cole, took the DNA test documents, and silently swam out of the area before the rescue team arrived.
Police cars and ambulances arrived with sirens blaring on the bridge. The professional rescue team also arrived at the scene in the shortest possible time. A crane lifted The wrecked Mercedes-Benz out of the water, but they did not find the car’s owner. They discovered that the side window glass was broken and thought the owner had escaped, so they thoroughly searched the water in that area.
The Mercedes-Benz involved in the accident was registered under the Warner Group’s name. Eventually, the traffic police contacted the company. The person in charge of the group’s external affairs checked the vehicle’s usage records and confirmed that it was Cole who had driven away with the car. Cole was Bradley’s special assistant, so the matter was not decided solely by the person in charge but was reported to the secretary’s office.
The secretary at the office immediately made a phone call to Bradley upon receiving the news of Cole’s accident.
With the faint dawn breaking in a hazy mist, Bradley, who received the news, woke up from his sleep and drove to the site of the accident.
