Chapter 373
"I had a... car accident. I'm in a lot of pain, Bella. I'm in so much pain..."
He kept telling her repeatedly that he's in so much pain. He really wanted her to come back. There was no excuse earlier, but now with the accident, he finally had one.
Finally, the bit of resilience that he was holding onto gave way, and as the phone slipped from his hand, Kenneth heard the girl's anxious call - Mr. Lucero, Mr. Lucero!
...
Arabella rushed to the hospital at lightning speed, where Kenneth had already been sent to the ward and was now in a coma.
"Doctor, how is he? How did he get into a car accident?"
"The patient suffered a severe impact and has varying degrees of bruising. We have treated him and there's no major harm for now. But we need to observe him in the hospital for a couple of days after he wakes up. This accident was serious, but luckily the patient was driving a Rolls-Royce, which reacted quickly. He must drive cautiously. Next time he might not be so lucky." The doctor finished speaking and left.
Arabella stood by the bed, looking at Kenneth who was unconscious at the moment. Suddenly, her fair eyes turned red and were covered with a layer of glistening tears.
They were all having dinner just now when Kenneth got into the car accident. Tyrone, Mr. Gilbert, and Rebecca were all worried and followed here. Rebecca hugged Arabella's shoulder and said, "Bella, I just found out that Mr. Lucero drove recklessly as fast as a rocket..."
Arabella held Rebecca's hand, "Rebecca, I want to stay here with Mr. Lucero. Thank you, you all can go back now."
"Okay, Bella, call us if you need anything." Everyone left.
When Tyrone reached the door, he turned back to look at Arabella. Arabella was sitting next to the bed, holding Kenneth's hand. Perhaps out of heartache, she lowered her head and kissed the man's hand. As she did so, tears fell from her eyes like beads falling off a string.
