Chapter 489 The Car Accident Was No Accident
"Aunt Chelsea, Grandma must be in a lot of pain, right?"
"Aunt Chelsea, will Grandma wake up? Is Grandpa lying to us?"
Gilbert and Freddy were hugging Chelsea, crying their hearts out.
It was only then that Chelsea realized that Gilbert and Freddy understood everything. They just hadn't shown it in front of Jessica because they didn't want her to worry or be sad.
"Freddy, Gilbert, God is good, and He will take care of someone like your Grandma. We just need to hold on to hope, okay?"
"And your Grandma loves you so much. She wouldn't want to stay asleep forever, so she would wake up. We just need to wait a little longer."
Chelsea comforted them for a long time before Gilbert and Freddy finally calmed down.
In the end, Gilbert and Freddy wiped their tears and, almost in unison, said, "Aunt Chelsea, please don't tell Mommy that we were crying, okay?"
"Why not?" Chelsea pinched their little cheeks.
"Mommy is already very sad. We don't want to make her even sadder."
"Alright, I promise."
After a few days in the hospital, Jessica was getting injections and taking medicine almost every day.
No matter how bitter the medicine was or how painful the injections were, she never frowned.
Because she knew that all of this was to protect her baby.
After the check-up, Jessica anxiously waited.
"The situation is good. Just take some more medicine to stabilize it. You need to rest in bed more these days, and remember not to get too emotional or have any big mood swings."
Hearing the doctor's words, Jessica breathed a sigh of relief.
She had just returned to her room when Oscar came in.
"Mrs. Jessica Walton, as you instructed, I have reviewed the surveillance footage and investigated the entire incident of Mrs. Danielle Walton's car accident. You were right; it is very suspicious."
"Tell me."
"That day, Mrs. Danielle Walton went to her usual beauty salon. But the driver who hit her car was acting strangely. I checked the road surveillance before he set off. He had already received his cargo but didn't move for over ten minutes before starting the car."
"And normally, he would leave immediately after receiving the cargo. This is unusual, as if it was intentional."
"We also found his medical report. He looked healthy, but the results showed he had stomach cancer. When the police found him, he didn't resist and admitted to everything very quickly."
"However, he insisted that he was driving while fatigued, which caused the accident. The surveillance clearly shows him driving straight towards Mrs. Danielle Walton's car."
"All of this makes us reflect deeply."
After Oscar finished, Jessica quickly mentioned a name. "Patricia."
"Go check what she's been up to recently."
Oscar looked up at her. "Mrs. Jessica Walton, do you mean Patricia orchestrated all of this?"
"I don't know, but if this wasn't an accident and was intentional, I can't think of anyone else but Patricia."
"Alright, Mrs. Jessica Walton, I'll investigate right away and inform you as soon as I have any news."
As Oscar was about to leave, Jessica couldn't help but call out. "Oscar."
"Mrs. Jessica Walton?"
Oscar knew very well that Jessica wanted to know about Gabriel.
But how could he tell her?
"What did the airline say? How is their investigation going? Is there no news about him?"
Jessica asked several questions in a row.
These days, she had been trying hard to suppress her emotions and constantly telling herself to be strong.
At least until Gabriel returned, she had to take on all the responsibilities.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Jessica Walton."
Oscar had thought of many responses, but in the end, that was all he could say.
Jessica closed her eyes in pain and waved her hand. "I understand. You can go now."
Oscar left, but Jessica remained in the same position, sitting in the chair for a long time.
"Gabriel, the baby is safe. Did you know? The baby is really strong, even stronger than us."
"You were always worried about me, so you must come back soon. If you're not here, what will I do when my belly gets big, and I can't put on my shoes and socks? Who will help me when I get leg cramps and need a massage?"
"And the stretch marks, you know how particular I am. If I get them, I will cry, so you need to come back quickly to help me take care of them."
Murmuring, Jessica took out her phone.
In her photo album, there were a few pictures of Gabriel, but not many.
She had looked at these few photos countless times.
Where else could she find pictures of Gabriel?
She suddenly remembered he had done some business interviews. There should be some.
She typed his name into the search bar and immediately saw some pictures.
Although there were very few, and Gabriel was almost always in formal attire with similar poses and expressions, she still treasured them and clicked to download.
Then she saved each one to her phone.
This was her only solace when thinking of Gabriel.
Holding her phone and thinking of Gabriel, Jessica fell asleep unconsciously.
In her dream, she saw Gabriel.
"Jessica." In the dream, it seemed like someone was gently calling her name.
She turned around and saw a familiar figure walking towards her in the morning sunlight.
It had to be her, Gabriel.
When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the hem of a suit.
A familiar white shirt and black suit.
She couldn't hold back anymore and hugged him tightly, burying herself in his chest. "Gabriel, is it you?"
"You came back, didn't you? I knew you would come back. You wouldn't leave me and the baby."
As soon as she said it, Jessica realized something was wrong.
It was a mistake.
The person in front of her wasn't Gabriel at all.
She realized it the moment she hugged him because the scent, the feel, everything was different.
But she wanted to indulge for a moment.
Even several seconds would be enough to let herself believe that he was Gabriel.
Vincent knew she had mistaken him, but he didn't dare to interrupt.
How much must she miss Gabriel to continue deceiving herself even knowing he wasn't Gabriel?
After a minute, Jessica took a deep breath and let go of Vincent. "Thank you, Vincent. Thank you for being Gabriel for a minute. Although it was short, I am very satisfied."
"It's okay. I know you just miss Gabriel too much!"
After a pause, Vincent continued. "I came today to tell you some news about Gabriel."
Hearing this, Jessica immediately became excited.
She grabbed Vincent's arm and asked eagerly, "Really? Tell me quickly!"
