A Vengeful Girl

Linda turned to Brian in concern. "Are you alright, Brian? You don't look well."

"I'm fine, thanks." Brian shook his head in reassurance, but he was turning pale, and a cold sweat had broken out on his forehead.

Linda immediately called up the police for assistance before updating Charles, who rushed over with Paul after learning about the accident.

The police was already at the crash site when Charles arrived, and the truck driver responsible for the accident had been arrested.

The driver was unnaturally calm. He was willing to take full responsibility, and didn't try to run away.

Linda had a bad feeling about the whole thing. It didn't seem like an accident; the accelerating truck was heading straight for their car when it happened.

She pulled Charles aside and voiced her thoughts. "I don't think it was a simple accident. The truck was aiming for the passenger seat. If Brian wasn't with us, that's where I would've been."

"Yes, that was too close for comfort." Charles nodded in agreement and took Linda's hand. He gave her a careful look to check if she was hurt in any way. A lot of people had started to gather, making Linda feel self-conscious. She let go of Charles's hand and hissed, "What are you doing? There are a lot of people here."

Seeing Linda was fine, Charles smiled in response. "Paul already assigned some men to look into this. They'll get an update in half an hour."

"Let's bring Brian to the hospital first. His back seems badly hurt." Linda glanced at Brian, whose face was drained of all color. After being helped out of the car, he was now lying on the ground. Bun sat beside him to look after him.

Linda felt guilty. Brian only got hurt because of her.

Charles shot him an unconcerned look. "Don't worry about him. He'll live."

Hearing this, Brian exclaimed in protest, "How could you say that? Don't you realize how serious this is? This is the second time I've been badly hurt in the past two weeks!"

"Well, you deserve it."

and turned away from Charles. "My wife was kidnapped the first time because of you. I didn't blame you, and yet here you are complaining. Although this time... I agree you did save Bun."
