Adrian didn’t say anything. When he saw that Ciara was still curiously looking out of the window, he was about to say something. But her face suddenly changed. She wrapped her scarf around her neck and got out of the car in a hurry.
“I’ll be back in a jiffy!” she uttered before running off. Horace quickly wound down the window and shouted behind her, “Where are you off to, Ms. Mitchell?”
Ciara didn’t look back or respond. She soon vanished into the crowd. Horace turned to look at Adrian. “Boss, should I go after her?”
Adrian didn’t respond. He stared broodingly in the direction where Ciara disappeared.
Meanwhile, Ciara made her way through the crowd until she got to the accident scene. From afar, she had caught a glimpse of the woman in the back seat of the taxi. Her clothes were the same as the ones Sarah had on earlier. They also looked alike.
It was indeed Sarah. She was in a very bad situation. Shards of glass were everywhere.”
The car had hit the taxi so hard that the front of the taxi was crunched up. The taxi driver passed out cold.
Sarah was still conscious, but it appeared she wouldn’t be for too long. There was blood oozing from her nose and other parts of her body. Despite the bad state she was in, she still held a kid tightly.
“Sarah, are you okay?” Ciara asked, intending to pull her out of the taxi first.
Sarah opened her eyes and shook her head weakly. “Please help me. Take my child first. Don’t let the paparazzi take pictures of her.”
Ciara looked at the kid in her arms. The little girl was badly shaken up by the accident. She held on to Sarah tightly with a blank look on her face.
Ciara noticed that there were many white spots on the little girl’s face. She wondered if it was caused by some connate disease.
Now wasn’t the time to think about such things. People were gathering in their numbers. Some onlookers had already recognized Sarah. The media could arrive any moment from now.
Ciara snatched up a mask from the side and put it on the girl’s face. She then took off her coat and wrapped up the child quickly, Afterward, she carried her out of the taxi and pushed through the crowd. She rushed blindly to Adrian’s car until her forehead bumped into the door frame.
The wails of an ambulance siren gradually sounded nearer.
Ciara breathed a sigh of relief. She reasoned that Sarah would get the urgent medical help she needed now. All she had to worry about now was the well-being of the little girl. In spite of the piercing pain she was feeling on her forehead, she urged, “Hurry up, drive!”
Horace turned his head, looking to Adrian for instructions.
Adrian tore his gaze from his wife. He gave Horace a straightforward look before leaning back against the seat and closing his eyes.
Horace took the hint. He started the car, made a U-turn, and sped away.
“Where should I head to, Ms. Mitchell?” he asked politely.
Ciara thought for a while and said, “Take me to a private hospital with tight security. This kid needs a checkup. “
“Ermm…” With a hesitant look on his face, Horace looked up at the rearview mirror.
“Go to Mercy Hospital.” Adrian, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.
Ciara looked at him, surprised.
Mercy Hospital was affiliated with BRD Group. It had the best hands and resources in the country. However, it wasn’t open to all. Only the important clients of BRD Group were eligible to be treated there.
The Lewis Group was nothing compared to the BRD Group. In Ciara’s opinion, Adrian didn’t seem powerful enough to have unrestricted access to Mercy Hospital.
But why did he suggest that hospital so easily? Did he have any connection to BRD Group? How was that even possible?
Mercy Hospital was located in the bustling commercial part of the city. Horace drove the car straight into the underground parking lot. They all got out quickly. Horace swiped a card to open the elevator. It took them all to the top floor of the building.
As soon as the elevator doors swooshed open, Ciara saw that there was a group of doctors waiting there. The hospital’s director bowed and greeted warmly, “Good evening, Mr. Fre-“
Adrian shot him a searing glare, causing the director to correct himself immediately. “Oh! Mr. Lewis, this way please.”
He ushered them into a lounge.
Shortly after, the doctors took the little girl away and the director left to examine her himself.
Ciara took a deep breath. She walked up to Adrian and said softly. “Thank you for your help.”
Adrian replied in an indifferent tone, “Why are you thanking me? You don’t have to. Sarah is signed to my company. I’m only doing this because of that. Moreover, I don’t want the press to have a field day over this. The ongoing scandal is already enough problem as it is.”
“Oh…” Ciara was short of words. She sighed and licked her dry lips. She poured herself a glass of water. As she drank it, she took out her mobile phone with the intention of knowing Sarah’s condition.
Sure enough, the media had gotten to the accident scene. There were countless photos of the scene all over the Internet.
The cops had already begun investigating, so they found out the cause of the accident. The owner of the car that crashed into the taxi was Lynch’s fan. She crazily claimed she did it for her idol. She got arrested for attempted murder on the spot.
Ciara was scrolling down when she saw pictures of her carrying a child out of the taxi and leaving the scene. They were blurry, so they were probably taken by some passerby.
Many comments were flooding under that post, most of which were discussions about the child’s identity.
“Oh my goodness! What do I do? Someone took pictures of me carrying the child and posted them online. Ciara looked at Adrian with worry written all over her face.
She had wrapped the little girl with her coat, so her face wasn’t visible at all. However, it was best not to underestimate social media users nowadays. They constantly came up with different ways to dig up the truth. If things went on like this, the girl’s identity might come to light.
This was the last thing Ciara wanted to happen.
Given the present state of things, the whole situation would worsen if the child’s identity was exposed.
After a short silence, Adrian ordered his assistant, “Go deal with it. Scrub off those pictures from the Internet immediately.”
“Okay, boss.” Horace nodded and left quickly.
The couple was left alone in the lounge.
Ciara stared at her phone absentmindedly. She was never at ease whenever they were alone together.
As soon as she raised her hand to brush her hair back, she cried out in pain. Her fingers touched the bruise on her forehead that she had completely forgotten about until now.
Ciara pressed her palm on her forehead to ease the throbbing pain. She had just opened her misty eyes again when she saw a big hand holding a band-aid with strawberry patterns.
Ciara looked up in confusion. “Is this… for me?”
It was hard to believe that the cold-hearted Adrian was being so kind now. Ever since she met him, he had been so moody and uncaring. She couldn’t understand what went on in his head at all. Why was he so caring tonight?
“Just take it. I found it in the trash can,” Adrian uttered expressionlessly. Ignoring her reaction, he threw the band-aid on the table beside her, turned around, and left.
“Tsk! I guess I got my hopes up too high this time, Ciara grumbled under her breath, staring at Adrian’s back.
