Pursing her lips, Evelyn looked back at the pool of blood on the ground. It was clear the injury wasn't minor.
She rubbed her temples wearily. Then, she finally replied, "Yeah, thank you."
The Millers handled the incident as quickly as possible. Upon inspection, it was confirmed that the malfunction had indeed been caused by an error in the navigation system, which later led to a loss of control.
Calming everyone down, Nathan mentioned, "Try to suppress this matter. We'll visit Mr. Grant another day to apologize in person."
After leaving the Miller residence, Evelyn furrowed her brows for the entire journey.
She checked the time. It was already 9:30 pm. She didn't know which hospital Lucas had been taken to, nor did she know how he was doing.
She couldn't help but feel complicated about such a huge thing happening. In the three years they had been together, she had never seen Lucas experience such an embarrassing moment.
Whether he had meant to save Tiffany and ended up choosing the wrong person due to limited visibility, the fact remained that he had shielded Evelyn from injury. With her current physical condition, she wouldn't have been able to withstand such an impact.
After thinking it over for a while, she decided to call and ask about his condition. However, the call didn't go through. In the end, the call started with, "The number you are trying to reach is currently on another call. Please try again later..."
Evelyn guessed someone must have cut off the call on purpose, so she didn't try again. Instead, she checked the calendar.
Tomorrow was the day they could officially collect the divorce certificate.
However, with Lucas in this condition… She frowned and decisively sent Jason a WhatsApp message, asking which hospital Lucas was at.
…
At the hospital, Tiffany had been keeping watch for over two hours after Lucas was wheeled into his room after surgery.
She took a deep breath, her expression growing darker. "He said a lady with the last name of Moore was with you, too. Care to explain what's going on, Lucas?"
Nathan must have given her a general idea. Naturally, he also mentioned Evelyn.
However, Nathan's exact words were, "Lucas originally meant to protect Ms. Moore, but something went wrong in the heat of the moment."
Even with just that, she could already guess most of the situation.
Lucas looked up at her with an indifferent gaze, saying nothing. He had no intention of explaining.
She then added, "Lucas, I won't allow you to let Evie down!"
