Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 708

The ambulance soon arrived.

Samuel was rushed to the hospital on a stretcher for emergency treatment.

Before losing consciousness, he weakly grasped Emelie's hand and murmured, "I'm fine... Don't worry too much..."

Tears welled up in Emelie's eyes. She followed the ambulance to the hospital but was kept outside the operating room.

Although she wasn't physically injured, her face was ashen with worry.

The image of Samuel being thrown by the car replayed in her mind over and over again. She clenched her fists tightly and managed to force out each word from her throat.

"Jodie, find out who did this."

Jodie understood the severity of the situation. "On it!"

After two hours, the surgery still wasn't over.

Emelie waited anxiously outside the operating room.

In her hand was Samuel's broken glasses. The chain that always hung from his ears had snapped, and she was attempting to piece it back together.

She recalled the first time she had met Samuel.

It was at Capebatt University. He had suddenly walked up to her, asking if she had forgotten him. She had once spilled red wine on his shirt.

She also remembered what he had said just before they had parted that night.

She rarely cried, but she had shed tears in front of him once.

She recalled how Samuel had offered her a job as his assistant when she couldn't find work due to William's suppression.

The glasses chain clicked into place with a snap. Emelie's lips curved up slightly. If the glasses could be fixed, then he would be fine too.

Jodie returned with news. "Ms. Pierce."

Emelie stayed silent as Jodie continued quietly, "The police and traffic officers have arrived at the scene and taken the driver and vehicle for investigation. The preliminary findings are that the rookie driver mistakenly pressed the gas pedal instead of the brake while trying to stop.

"As the driver was panicking after hitting someone, she lost control, causing the car to swerve uncontrollably. This incident is being considered as an accident."

An accident?

Emelie's smile turned icy. "If Mr. Swanson hadn't pushed me in time, given the speed of that car, I would either be dead or gravely injured."

What she said was true.

Jodie remained silent.

Everything had happened so quickly. They had been in a different car and hadn't anticipated such an accident. If Samuel hadn't pushed Emelie aside, she would have been hit head-on.

The consequences would have been unimaginable.

Emelie turned to Jodie. "I don't believe that this is just a simple accident."
