Chapter 384 Jessica Gets into a Car Accident
Time ticked by, second by second.
Oscar's heart was in suspense.
Jessica's heart was also in torment.
Every second seemed incredibly precious.
Yet, they waited.
In the long wait, the only sound from the other end was the ringing of the phone, with no one answering.
Holding onto the last bit of hope, Jessica kept staring at the phone, hoping to hear Gabriel's voice suddenly.
However, a mechanical female voice came through, "The number you have dialed is currently unavailable."
This time, Jessica could no longer convince herself.
"Oscar, let it go! There's no need anymore."
As she finished speaking, Jessica closed her eyes in pain.
A silent, sorrowful tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.
Since she couldn't wait any longer.
She could only face the road ahead alone, with only her strength.
Whether it hurt or not.
Even now she was giving birth, she had to face it alone.
Since the person who cared for her was no longer by her side, crying and shouting became meaningless.
So, when the contractions came again, Jessica just bit her lip hard, without shouting.
Only faint, painful moans lingered in the car.
But those sounds were particularly painful, particularly repressed.
Oscar listened, feeling both panicked and anxious, and he continued to call Gabriel.
At the same time, he prayed desperately, "Answer the phone, Mr. Walton, please answer the phone, Mrs. Walton is about to give birth, where are you?"
"Please answer the phone, Mrs. Walton and her babies are waiting for you!"
But Oscar's prayers were in vain.
There was still no answer on the other end of the line.
Jessica was in so much pain that she was drenched in sweat, her hair and clothes soaked, and more importantly, she could clearly feel her water breaking.
This was a very dangerous sign.
Once the water broke, the babies must be delivered immediately, otherwise, there would be a high risk of oxygen deprivation.
If deprived of oxygen, the consequences would be unimaginable.
So, she was really anxious.
Enduring wave after wave of intense contractions, Jessica looked at Oscar and urgently said, "Quick, Oscar, make the car go faster, get to the nearest hospital immediately, my water has broken, I need to get to the hospital right away. Otherwise..."
Halfway through her sentence, another contraction hit.
Jessica frowned, gripping the seat cushion tightly.
When the contraction ended, she took a deep breath and continued urgently, "We need to hurry, otherwise the babies will be in danger."
"We must hurry."
Not feeling reassured, she emphasized it again.
After speaking, she was almost completely exhausted, lying weakly in the back seat.
Oscar immediately instructed the driver, "Listen, ignore the traffic lights, get to the hospital as fast as you can."
"Yes."
The driver immediately stepped on the gas, speeding up.
Jessica could clearly it.
The hospital was getting closer and closer.
However, at a traffic light intersection.
Suddenly, the driver shouted in panic, "Oh no, there's a car coming, protect..."
Before he could finish, there was a sudden violent collision, and the world spun around.
The entire car was knocked over, lying on its side.
Due to the impact, Jessica was thrown from the back seat, but fortunately, Oscar caught her in time.
Jessica bit her lip, her body trembling uncontrollably, shivering all over.
She was terrified to the extreme.
What about her babies?
The water was still leaking, and if it all leaked out and the babies couldn't be delivered by C-section, the outcome would be dire.
She couldn't even imagine the consequences.
"Oscar, find a way to get me out," Jessica said, looking outside.
No matter what, she would crawl to the hospital if she had to.
She could die, but her babies must be safe.
"Mrs. Walton, the car is showing signs of an explosion, not just me, but everyone outside, no one dares to act rashly, fearing it might trigger an explosion."
"Please wait, I've already called the police, they'll be here soon, they are professional."
Oscar's words were like adding insult to injury.
A car accident was already tragic enough.
Unexpectedly, the car was also showing signs of an explosion.
Yes, that's why the large crowd following them didn't dare to move the car or rescue her rashly.
Her contractions were becoming more frequent, almost every one or two minutes.
Besides breathing and pain, Jessica had no energy left to think about anything else.
She had only one thought now: to get out alive and let her babies be born safely into this world.
Every breath felt like a knife, she was in excruciating pain.
Smoke was already coming out of the front of the car, getting thicker and thicker.
Jessica knew this could be a sign of an impending explosion.
Explosion?
Thinking of these two words, her heart suddenly ached intensely.
Could it be that God really wanted her and her babies to perish here?
Could it be that they would never see the sunrise of tomorrow?
No, it couldn't be.
She had lived a life of kindness.
She always believed that God wouldn't mistreat any kind-hearted person like her.
God wouldn't be so cruel to her and her babies!
Beside the car, people kept coming to ask Oscar, "Oscar, should we pry open the car and get Mrs. Walton out? She's pregnant, it's too dangerous."
"No, we can't move, forcing the car open will only backfire, I believe the police will be here soon."
Because they were in the city center.
There were already onlookers around.
Their voices came through the car window into Jessica's ears, one after another.
"Oh my, it's so pitiful, I heard there's a pregnant woman inside, her water has broken, she's about to give birth."
"That's really pitiful, God, please, save her."
"The smoke from the car is getting thicker, it looks very dangerous, everyone, don't stay here, leave immediately, be careful of an explosion," at this moment, someone said.
Suddenly, the previously chattering crowd quickly dispersed.
"Oscar, there's no time, the car is about to explode, we must get Mrs. Walton out immediately," The bodyguard beside them urged again.
This time, Oscar looked at Jessica. "Mrs. Walton, what do you think?"
"I trust you, I'm willing to wait for the police."
As soon as Jessica finished speaking, the car, which had been smoking, suddenly caught fire.
The situation was extremely critical.
Jessica, panting heavily in pain, looked at Oscar. "Oscar, you're stronger than me, you'll surely survive, if..."
"If my babies and I die, please tell Gabriel to forget about me."
