No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 465

With a hefty thud, the world around us came to an abrupt halt, plunging into an eerie silence so profound it felt as if life itself had paused.

It took me a moment to gather my senses and realize I was still among the living. Trying to move, I found myself immobilized.

Pushing with a bit more effort, I heard a muffled grunt, "Stop...moving..."

My world remained engulfed in darkness, not the absence of light, but because my eyes were still covered.

"Conrad," I called out.

"I'm here," came Conrad's faint response, right in front of me.

"Get off me, I can't move," I said, not even realizing he might be hurt; I just wanted to free myself.

Conrad shifted, allowing me to move my face out of his embrace. As soon as I did, the grim reality hit me - the twisted wreckage of the car, the driver bleeding and motionless.

Panicked, I cried out, "Conrad, Conrad..."

Rushing to check on him, my heart sank as I saw his face covered in blood.

This was bad. Both Conrad and the driver were hurt, and I wasn't even sure if I was injured because Conrad was pinning me down, trapped by the crushed car.

But sitting idle wasn't an option; it would put us all in danger.

"Conrad, try to bear with it. Take a deep breath, try to make yourself smaller so I can get out," I instructed.

He did as told, yet freeing myself from underneath him wasn't easy. I kept asking him to breathe in and make himself smaller.

After numerous attempts, I was almost out, but Conrad's face had turned a ghastly shade of pale.
