After what felt like minutes, the car finally crashed onto the ground again… and despite how violently everything was still shaking, Xavia’s mind could only focus on one thing. And that was the pained expression on her grandmother’s face…! Despite how worried and horrified she was, Xavia couldn’t find the voice to scream for her grandmother at all!
It was at that moment when the old lady muttered, “…A-accident… Jenna… Pushed… me…”
Before the old woman could say anything else, a gurgling sound could be heard… Soon enough, she spat out a mouthful of blood… and just like that, her grandmother’s eyes lost their glow…!
“Grandma…!” howled Xavia at the top of her lungs… but it was the last thing she was able to do before her world went dark…
The major accident instantly caught the attention of the local newspapers and stations, and soon enough, reports about it spread out, causing almost everyone there to talk about it…
“I heard that the accident was extremely serious! In all, three people died on the spot!”
“Same here. There was apparently a three-year-old child involved when that massive truck slammed into that tiny car! What a tragedy…”
“Indeed… I wonder if the others can be rescued…”
Since everyone was talking about it, many high-ranking people soon got involved in the police investigation as well, including Saltman Pharmaceutical, the largest company that the industry had to offer.
Regardless, when Stefan’s father—who was there to aid with the rescue and treatment—finally met up with the patients, his eyes soon widened in shock.
W-wasn’t this Xavia? His son’s ex? She was one of the victims?!
“…Dean…?” asked a concerned doctor, snapping Stefan’s father out of it.
Already feeling exhausted by this point, the anxious woman turned to look at the doctor while asking, “…Fine, I’ll stay but please, doctor… How are the others…? I’m a family member and I believe I have the right to know.”
Upon hearing that, the doctor helplessly replied, “…You should understand that that was a major car accident, Miss… With that said… Your grandmother and the driver had already passed on before they even arrived at the hospital… The two are currently in the hospital’s morgue… As for your daughter, she’s seriously injured and is still under observation in the intensive care unit. Your friend, on the other hand, only received a minor fracture…”
By this point, Xavia wasn’t even listening anymore. After all, her grandmother was dead. She… She was dead…! To think that all this would happen right after she recovered… She hadn’t even been able to hear her grandmother call out her name…! That aside, Yulia… Her poor child… Lying in an intensive care unit…
Completely devastated, Xavia eventually snapped, “…No. You… You’re all lying to me…! Those are all lies…!”
Following that, she somehow found the strength to leap out of bed before pushing everyone in her way aside and rushing out while yelling, “G-Grandma…! Yulia…! You’re both fine! Both of you will be fine…!”
