Chapter 1295
Just moments before, Chloe was feeling helpless about the way Damon and Rose were acting. Upon hearing this news, her face changed drastically “What are you talking about?”
Rose bit her lip slightly. “Seems like you really don’t know. Just now, someone posted photos of the accident scene online. I happened to see it. The birthmark on her forehead was quite prominent, I’m sure it’s her!”
As Rose spoke, she pulled out her phone from her pocket, found the video she had just watched, and handed it to Chloe. Chloe took it, the video showed the entire accident. She watched it for less than two seconds, and her face immediately turned cold.
After watching the entire minute–long video, Chloe’s face was ice cold.
“Feels like that car deliberately went after them.” Rose said calmly. The black sedan was noticeably overtaking other cars in a crowded city area, it would squeeze in wherever there was a gap, clearly targeting the grey sedan Katie was in.
When the traffic finally eased on the overpass, the black car suddenly hit the gas, squeezed next to the grey car, nudged its rear, and pushed it into a corner. The grey car hit the concrete guardrail next to it.
Following that, traffic jammed up on the entire overpass. In the video, a frantic Miles got out from the driver’s side of the grey car, ran to the passenger side, and rescued the person as fast as possible. The video panned over to a woman, unconscious, with a bright red birthmark on her forehead that was particularly eye-catching. Without a doubt, that was Katie.
Chloe’s grip on her phone tightened, and her face darkened. This car accident seemed to be deliberate, and it was obvious that someone was targeting the two people in the car, Miles and Katie.
So, who would do such a thing?
Chloe didn’t want to suspect anyone with such dark thoughts, but this clear intentional accident forced her to have her doubts. There could only be a few people capable of doing such a thing.
The International Makeup Competition was tomorrow. If she didn’t suspect the people from Infinity Media, then who should she suspect?
“Time to eat.”
Damon’s cold voice suddenly broke the silence. Chloe opened her mouth to say something but noticed Damon looking at her with a sharp gaze, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. It was as if he had already seen through her. If she dared to say what she wanted to say, she would definitely be punished. But on second thought, she was pregnant now, she couldn’t let her mood be too affected, and she had to eat well.
She obediently sat in her chair, only then did a smile appear on Damon’s face. He reached out and placed the food from the tray in front of Chloe. “Enjoy your meal, I’ll look into the car accident for you.”
Chloe nodded, taking a deep breath.
She picked up her utensils. Then as if she remembered something, Chloe returned her phone to Rose, then took out her own phone, clearly planning to call her assistant.
“Handle the situation with Katie’s car accident. First, check her condition, and remember to remind the doctor not to disclose Katie’s condition… if possible, you can ask them… to make the situation look as real as possible.”
Once everything was arranged, Chloe hung up the phone. Just as Chloe was about to eat her meal, she noticed the two people in the room were staring at her. Rose couldn’t help but ask, “What are you planning?”
“What do you mean by ‘planning‘? I’m doing this to minimize the impact.”
Rose was somewhat speechless. “You asked the doctor to make her condition sound so serious, and you say this is minimizing the impact?”
Chloe raised her eyebrow. “So we should wait for someone to really hurt her?”
Rose suddenly understood Chloe’s intent. If they didn’t do this, Katie would be in more danger. But seeing Chloe’s cunning and clever expression, Rose still felt that Chloe’s goal was definitely more than just that.
The breakfast dishes were very delicious, Chloe took a bite and her furrowed brows gradually relaxing.
Damon gave a slight smile, taking a look at his own dish, and gently closing his lips. The two of them didn’t talk much while eating, but Rose still felt like she was a third wheel, so she simply turned around and left the room.
How unfair! Being married was a big deal, huh!
She… she had a child too! Rose pouted, looking down and touching her own belly. She picked up the phone she had just gotten from Chloe and checked the call log.
The first one at the top was from Morrison. She opened it, only to see a few brief exchanges.
She said, [Are you back yet?]
He replied, [Hmm]
She said, II’m going to stay in P City for a few more days.]
He replied, [Whatever]
He couldn’t even be bothered to reply with a punctuation mark.
Looking at his brief response, Rose’s smile trembled slightly. She suddenly felt hurt, and the bitterness in her heart gradually rose, almost drowning her entire heart.
But she couldn’t blame anyone, it was all her own choice. She didn’t even know how far she would have to go down this path before there would be an end
Her eyes started to feel teary, she lifted her head, and took a deep breath, trying to disperse the bitterness in her heart and the pain in her eyes. Her clothes were tightly gripped in her hands.
All she hoped for now was that Damon could quickly help her handle the company’s affairs and let her immerse herself in work to distract her attention. That would be the best.
At the hospital, Miles was by Katie’s bedside, completely in a state of despair. When Chloe arrived, she saw Miles looking lost and distraught.
She frowned, standing by Katie’s bed checking her condition. She had suffered a severe head injury and was still unconscious. Chloe’s arrival didn’t catch Miles‘ attention, he was blankly staring at Katie’s face.
“This is all my fault.” After a while, Miles slowly spoke. His hoarse voice was filled with self–blame and pessimism.
“If it wasn’t for me insisting on her being my model, she wouldn’t have been in this mess. I was the one driving the car, she was in my car, and I screwed her over…”
Chloe was stone-faced, apparently sharing the same thoughts as Miles.
“She’ll be fine.”
Miles rubbed his face. “But the doctor said…”
Chloe chuckled lightly, looking up at Miles‘ forehead. Blood from his forehead had trickled down to his cheeks, and was now dried, yet the wound was still bleeding faintly.
“Don’t sweat it, she’ll be okay under your watch. You should take care of your wound too.”
Miles was a bit taken aback, not understanding how Chloe knew he was protecting Katie. “How did you…”
“Enough, go now! There’s a competition tomorrow.”
Hearing about the competition, Miles‘ face turned even grimmer. He glanced at Katie, lying pale on the bed. He got up from his seat and headed towards the door.
“I’m sorry Ms. Summers, could you look after Katie for a bit? I’ve got to take care of something…” Before he could finish, he was already at the door of the ward.
Chloe frowned, coldly saying, “Hold it right there!”
