Chapter 275 Saving Lives
"Dermot is handsome and good to you. I never expected that you don't have any liking towards him, Evelyn. Are your standards too high?" Ruby initially thought that Evelyn had a prejudice against Dermot because of the divorce, but now it seems that she really doesn't like that man.
This is just too illogical.
Although she doesn't like Dermot either, if he is so good to her, caring for her every day, Ruby doesn't think she can resist it. Over time, she will definitely develop feelings for him.
Of course, this is just her assumption, and it will never happen.
Evelyn remained silent. Are her standards too high?
In the midst of their conversation, Evelyn had already gotten off the car, ready to cross the street to the hospital on the other side.
She walked on the zebra crossing, listening to Ruby's continuous talking on the other end of the phone, feeling a bit absent-minded, so she wasn't as alert to the approaching danger.
At the intersection, a black car that had been parked there for a while started moving as soon as it saw Evelyn, accelerating faster and heading straight towards her.
Phoebe gripped the steering wheel, thinking of what Natalie had said. She just wanted to scare Evelyn a little, teach her a lesson, to make her
"Knowing that she was not someone to be messed with easily.
With determination in her heart, the car accelerated once again, heading towards Evelyn.
Evelyn hadn't noticed the approaching car, but nearby pedestrians were the first to notice: "Be careful!"
A sudden loud shout caught Evelyn's attention, momentarily snapping her out of her thoughts.
She turned her head and saw the car getting closer to her, and through the windshield, she saw Phoebe inside.
Evelyn's first reaction was not to escape, but rather, she wondered if Phoebe had gone crazy.
As the car approached closer and came directly at her, Evelyn had no chance to escape even if she wanted to.
Seeing Evelyn's furrowed brows, Phoebe felt pleased, thinking that she was finally scared.
As the car was about to collide with Evelyn, Phoebe felt it was about time and stepped on the brakes, preparing to stop in front of Evelyn.
However...
When she stepped on the brakes and realized that the car showed no signs of stopping, she instantly panicked.
"What's going on? Why aren't the brakes working?" she shouted in a frenzy, continuously stepping on the brakes.
"Get out of the way!" she yelled at Evelyn, feeling somewhat desperate.
However, Evelyn couldn't hear anything she was saying; she only saw her mouth moving as if she was speaking.
To Evelyn, whatever Phoebe was saying at this moment certainly wasn't pleasant.
Bang!
A loud crashing sound echoed.
Many onlookers anxiously watched the intersection, worried for Evelyn's safety. Some were about to rush forward to help when they noticed that she was still standing unharmed, while two cars had collided in front of her.
Dermot!
It was Dermot's car, whom Evelyn recognized.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly walked towards Dermot, feeling indescribable panic.
It was then she realized that she cared so much about this man's life and death...
In the driver's seat, the man had passed out, and the violent impact had caused the airbags to deploy, protecting Dermot's head. However, there were still shattered glass pieces embedded in his body, with blood flowing out.
"Dermot!" Evelyn panicked, wanting to open the car door to rescue him but found that the door couldn't be opened because of the collision.
Feeling flustered, she shouted at the crowd, "Help! Save him!"
As soon as she spoke, someone stepped forward, helping her open the car door and rescue the person.
Fortunately, the hospital was not far away, and Dermot was quickly rushed in for treatment.
