Chapter 551 I Am Also Jasper's Son
"Scott had a car accident on his way here." Jasper hung up the phone, frowning as he glanced at Adeline.
The moment she heard the news, Adeline's mind went blank. How could this happen? Evelyn had just called to say Scott was coming to see them and admit his misdiagnosis in front of Jasper! Now he has a car accident? Was it a coincidence or intentional? If it was intentional, was he trying to avoid facing it, or...
Suddenly, Adeline remembered the call she had just received. That must have been from Scott, right?
She bit her lip, feeling a storm brewing inside her.
The fact that Scott called Adeline after the accident showed he wanted to admit his misdiagnosis. So, if this accident wasn't just a coincidence, someone might be trying to silence him, not wanting Scott to spill the truth!
Thinking of this, Adeline bit her lip and looked up at Jasper. "I need to go to the accident scene to find Dr. Smith."
Seeing the determination in her eyes, Jasper frowned slightly. "Are you sure?"
The person who called said the scene was horrific; Scott was barely alive, trapped in the car with his body deformed, and the firefighters were trying to rescue him...
He didn't think Adeline, who had just recovered from a serious injury, was up for such a scene.
Adeline bit her lip. "I'm sure; I need to go."
If someone really wanted to silence him, they wouldn't leave Scott alive. But since he was still hanging on, she had to get there ASAP and let Scott say what he needed to before it was too late.
Seeing her determined look, Jasper couldn't argue.
Jasper took a deep breath and stepped out the door. "Let's go."
Adeline paused and quickly followed.
As they reached the elevator, a bodyguard caught up. "Mr. Foster, what about Luna? Should we let her leave?"
Jasper squinted. "Without my order, she can't leave!"
The bodyguard replied, "Yes, Mr. Foster!"
Jasper didn't have time to say more and took Adeline with him in the elevator.
From the hospital to the accident scene, Adeline kept her hands clasped, praying non-stop.
She knew very well that Scott, in his quest to get Evelyn, had directly caused the deaths of Caroline and Lucas. Admitting his crime should be Scott's final outcome. But now, she needed Scott's repentance; she needed Scott to tell everyone that Luna was not sick at all.
Soon, they arrived at the accident scene.
The air was thick with the smell of gasoline and blood.
The scene was cordoned off, and firefighters were working to rescue.
Scott was trapped in the car; his body had several gaping wounds, some parts even showing his internal organs, and his hands and legs seemed useless.
The sight alone was enough to make Adeline crouch by the roadside and wretch uncontrollably.
Jasper sighed, holding a bottle of water and patting her back. "I told you, you shouldn't have come."
Adeline closed her eyes.
She really wanted to rush up and say something to Scott. But the scene was too overwhelming; she felt like her stomach was doing somersaults. She didn't even have the courage to get close to Scott. She didn't even know if Scott was still alive.
Meanwhile, back at the hospital.
The elevator dinged and reached the 18th floor.
A little boy in a black suit stepped out.
From a distance, a bodyguard spotted him and quickly approached. "Blake?"
The boy paused for a moment and nodded. "Yeah." The bodyguard asked, "Weren't you with Lily in the countryside? Why'd you come back so suddenly?"
He frowned slightly and gave a faint smile. "The countryside was too boring, so I came back." After speaking, he glanced towards the ward. "Is Luna inside?"
The bodyguard hesitated. This was the first time he heard Blake mention Luna.
The bodyguard scratched his head. "Yeah, Luna's inside. Mr. Foster ordered not to let her out."
"Let Luna come out and play with me," he interrupted the bodyguard. "I'm pretty bored."
The bodyguard hesitated for a moment. "But Mr. Foster said..."
"I am Jasper's son." He gave the bodyguard a cold look, his voice indifferent. "Everything of Jasper's will be mine in the future. If you don't listen to me and offend the heir of the Foster family, do I need to remind you of the consequences?"
His words made the bodyguard hesitate. "But..."
The boy said, "If there's a problem, let Jasper come to me. I am his son. What are you afraid of?"
With that, the bodyguards at the ward door looked at each other. In the end, they gave in to the authority of the Foster family heir. They opened the ward door and let Luna out.
The moment Luna stepped out of the ward, she looked a bit dazed. She looked at the boy in front of her, "Blake?"
"Yeah." He frowned, seemingly resistant to the name Blake.
He turned and walked towards the elevator. "Come on, Luna. I'll take you out to play."
Luna was stunned and quickly followed.
The two of them got into the elevator one after the other.
After the elevator doors closed, Bennett finally let out a long sigh of relief. Pretending to be someone else was really uncomfortable.
Luna frowned and glanced at the boy beside her.
"Hello." Bennett extended his hand and shook Luna's. "I am Molly's son; my name is Liam."
Luna's eyes widened instantly. "Molly's son?"
Although Luna had seen Liam before and knew he looked exactly like Blake, who was Jasper and Adeline's son, she had always believed that Liam was just a child Molly had specifically found abroad who bore a striking resemblance. But now Liam was saying he was Molly's son?
"Surprised?" Bennett smiled faintly. "My mom just told me today why I look so much like Blake."
He squinted his eyes. "Because my mom, Molly, is Adeline's sister. And my dad is also Blake and Lauren's dad."
Luna's eyes widened in shock. "You mean you are..."
"That's right." Bennett looked ahead, his eyes complicated. "I am also Jasper's son. Molly came back this time to fight Adeline for my dad."
After speaking, Bennett sighed inwardly. He actually liked Adeline quite a bit. When he found out she was his aunt, he was happy for a while.
But the image of Molly holding a knife to her neck, asking Bennett if he would help her get Jasper back, suddenly flashed before his eyes. Bennett silently closed his eyes.
