Chapter 615 Brake Failure
They got into the car together and drove on the main road. The lights on both sides of the road were warm and bright, which made Serina feel much better.
However, Miles soon realized that something was amiss.
He steadied the steering wheel and said in a panic, "Serina, we're in trouble."
Hearing this, Serina looked around. The road was flat, and there was only one car. She asked in confusion, "What's the trouble?”
"Brakes! The brakes have malfunctioned." Miles pursed his lips.
Serina finally realized the seriousness of the matter. She looked in the direction of the brakes and asked, "How could it be?"
She had never encountered such a situation, but she had seen many similar scenes in movies.
"Then, what should we do? I'll call Manuel!" In a panic, Serina took out her phone from her pocket and dialed her brother's number without thinking.
"Manuel, what do we do if our brakes malfunction? Who is it? It's Miles. What should we do? I'm so scared!"
Manuel, who was in the middle of a meeting, immediately stopped the meeting. He stood up immediately and walked out of the conference room. He said anxiously to the man, "Roman, the brakes of Serina's car stopped working. You take the police over there now."
"Okay. I'll go right away!"
Manuel immediately comforted Serina and told her not to be too nervous.
Trembling, Serina looked at Miles and asked, "What should we do?"
Just as she was about to say something to Manuel, her phone suddenly ran out of battery and automatically turned off.
Serina wanted to smash her phone angrily, but instead, she quickly plugged in the charger, at a loss.
If it was a car with a manual transmission, the clutch could be turned into a gear and slowly stopped, but this was an automatic transmission.
"Serina, don't be afraid." Miles thought of Serina's trauma and immediately made a decision. He had to take a risk.
He turned the steering wheel and pressed the car against the bumper bar ruthlessly. Then, he tried to slow down the car with friction, but he thought wrong.
The car was moving so fast that the friction couldn't slow it down at all.
If necessary, they could only use the impact to come to a complete stop.
And Miles had to do it well, or things might take a turn for the worse.
When he saw the trees in front of him, he knew that the time was right. He turned the steering wheel again, and the car hit the first tree forcefully. However, he moved the steering wheel slightly to let the car graze by the tree.
The same thing happened the second time. After passing a dozen trees, the car finally slowed down.
However, an accident happened. There was a slippery slope in front, causing the car to head downward all of a sudden. The car turned over, and Miles hugged Serina tightly in his arms.
Then, he watched the car fall and crash into the barrier ruthlessly.
Beep! Beep!
Stimulated by the smell of disinfectant, Serina woke up. When she smelled the formalin, she immediately remembered what had happened.
Coincidentally, the nurse came to change the wound dressing, and Serina excitedly grabbed the nurse's wrist. "How is that man? The man who came with me."
"Miss, calm down. Are you talking about Mr. Wilson?" The nurse's face was unusually flushed.
Miles was famous as the youngest movie star, so it was not surprising that the nurses knew him.
Serina endured the discomfort. "I mean, Mr. Wilson, how is he?"
"Mr. Wilson is still in a coma. His arm is fractured, and many of the wounds on his body have been bandaged. You don't have to worry," the nurse said.
Hearing that he was fine, Serina breathed a sigh of relief.
