urgent

I have no idea about any crash or what you’re talking about.” 

Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Claire recounted the earlier incident. “When I was crossing the street, someone deliberately tried to crash into me. It was no accident, Alex” 

Alex considered her words for a moment before suggesting. “Maybe the driver didn’t see the red light or misjudged the distance.” 

claire rolled her eyes, frustration evident in her tone. “Alex, it was intentional. I know when something is deliberate.” 

Alex’s features tightened with a mix of confusion and inntation. “I didn’t hire anyone to hurt you, Claire. Despite everything. I wouldn’t stop that low and if i wanted to hurt you, I rather do it myself.” 

Their conversation hang in the tense air, both parties grappling with the tension of the situation. 

Claire, her own emotions running high, retorted, “If it wasn’t you, then who?
