Adopted to Biological? Keep Your Golden Child Scapegoat Out novel Chapter 39

Chapter 3

As evening approached, the Miller family arranged cars to take everyone to the restaurant.

Ethan, Sophia and Avery sat in one car.

During the entire ride, Ethan sat in the middle and kept his attention on Sophia.

He adjusted the AC, gave her blankets, and opened water bottles for her.

Avery was on the left, watched them chatting away before silently turning to stare out the window.

Halfway there, it suddenly started pouring rain.

The road was dimly lit, and the car in front switched on its high beams. The driver was blinded as they went downhill, unable to make the turn and crashing straight into the guardrail.

In that split second of danger, Ethan instinctively pulled Sophia into his arms.

BANG-

The window glass shattered. Avery sat against the door with blood covering her.

Pain spread through her entire body. She felt like she was falling apart.

She was half-conscious when the right door swung open.

Ethan rushed out with Sophia in his arms, frantically calling hospitals while gently comforting her.

He seemed to completely forget there was another person in the car.

When the ambulance arrived, the paramedics recommended helping the more severely injured victim first.

Faced with the choice between Avery lying in a pool of blood and Sophia trembling in shock, Ethan hesitated only seconds before choosing to take Sophia to the hospital first.

Watching their car disappear in the distance, Avery’s vision blurred as tears finally spilled over.

Oh, Ethan…

Twenty years, and it still couldn’t compete with one look from her.

Her eyelids grew heavier as the pain slowly faded.

She couldn’t wait for the next ambulance. Everything went black as she passed out completely.

Avery had no idea how much time had passed. She heard the sound of chaotic voices.

She opened her eyes and saw her mother with her hand on her chest, her voice filled with both worry and relief.

“Oh thank God you’re awake, sweetie! The ambulance got you here just in time, or you’d have bled out-they almost drained the entire blood bank! You were all in the same car, so how did Sophia just get a scratch while you’re hurt so badly?”

Her father sighed with relief, taking a sip of water.

“Well, obviously Ethan was protecting her. True love shows in times of hardship, right? Sophia was super touched. I just visited their room, and Ethan was feeding her soup. The way they were looking at each other-I’d bet they’re officially a thing

now.”

Avery listened quietly and, after they finished gossiping, spoke in a hoarse voice.

“How long was I out? Is the immigration paperwork done?”

“Two whole days! You scared us to death!!”

“Don’t worry about the paperwork. It’ll be ready in three weeks. You just focus on healing.”

Hearing they only had less than a month left, she felt a strange sense of relief.

Over the next few days, Avery kept hearing from the nurses about all the things Ethan was doing for Sophia.

He never left her room, even rushing to get hot water in the middle of the night when he heard her cough.

He tested the temperature of every medicine and prepared candies to take away the bitter taste.

Fearing she might get bored, he brought all kinds of games and toys to cheer her up.)

Avery just listened silently.

When a nurse pushed her wheelchair for a checkup, she heard a commotion in the hallway.

As she passed the next room, she saw Ethan holding a huge bouquet of roses, confessing to Sophia.
