Additionally, Brian never allowed others to call him ‘Bryn’. The nickname seemed to be his taboo. A female celebrity once tried to get to the top by endearingly calling him ‘Bryn’, only to be blacklisted until she quit the entertainment industry!
Grace listened to the gossip Lina told her, and unconsciously, they had already driven to the rental house’s neighborhood gate. Lina steered the wheel and pressed on the brake to slowly come to a stop, but the brake strangely did not seem to work. The car would not stop at all.
Lina’s face instantly turned pale as she stiffened.
Sitting in the pa**enger seat, Grace sensed something was wrong with her best friend and asked hurriedly, “What’s the matter?”
“The brake isn’t working!” said Lina. All had been well on the way, but it suddenly stopped working now! The car was moving even faster. Once the car increased its speed even more later, it was just…
Lina dared not imagine it.
“Grace… I… I’ll try my best to drive to an empty spot. Find a chance to jump out of the car!” Lina said dryly. The car was out of control, but the steering wheel was not broken. If she drove the car to a quiet place and let Grace jump out of it, it should not be a big problem even if there were some injuries.
When Grace heard this, she suddenly understood Lina’s plan. “If I jump out of the car, what about you? Are you going to stay in the car?”
“Someone has to steer the car. You jump first. I’ll look for a chance to jump out of the car after you jump!” said Lina after taking a deep breath. It was the best solution her mind could think of in a short time.
As she spoke, she began to drive in the direction where there were fewer people and less traffic.
She was not usually calm and composed. She would have been flustered if she had faced this alone, but this time, she was unusually clear-headed.
Even now, her heart was pounding heavily like it was going to jump out of her throat, but she kept driving steadily.
Lina thought it was because Grace was here!
Grace was right beside her, so she wanted Grace to be safe no matter what! She could not let anything happen to Grace!
The wish was so strong that it overpowered her panic!
“If we’re going to jump, we’ll jump together!” Grace’s voice rang. The later they jumped out of the car, the more dangerous it would be!
“What if the steering wheel…”
Before Lina could finish, Grace said, “Then we’ll take a bet.
Even if no one’s steering the car, the direction won’t go too far off in a short period. I can’t trust leaving you alone in the car!”
“You…” Lina glared at her best friend, her nose feeling sore.
Grace said, “Lina, I had a car accident and saw someone die in front of my eyes. I don’t want to go through that again. Not to mention that person being you! If you continue to dawdle, then the car’s going to get faster and faster. We’ll get badly hurt when we jump later!”
Lina instantly made up her mind and said, “Okay, let’s do it. Let’s try our best anyway!”
The two quickly unbuckled their seatbelts as they spoke. The car was now traveling at 70 miles per hour and moving steadily toward a remote area.
They could have taken the opportunity to jump out of the car, but suddenly, there was a sand truck coming diagonally. The driver of the sand truck also saw Lina’s car and began to slow own, but he did not stop. After all, according to the traffic. rules, Lina should be the one to stop.
However, Lina could not stop her car.
If they hit the sand truck and the sand came falling, they would not be able to escape the sand even if they managed to remove themselves from the scene of impact!
Lina was now desperately turning the steering wheel, trying to pull the car away from the sand truck, but the truck was loaded with sand and the driver was not stopping at all. Even if he now noticed that there was something wrong with Lina’s.
car, it was already too late to hit the brakes now.
Seeing that the two vehicles were about to collide, Lina cried out almost in despair, “Grace, jump! Quick!”
Just then, another car suddenly rushed toward them.
Then, there was only a loud crash and the sound of brakes screeching. The front of the other car had hit the front of Lina’s car, forcing Lina’s car to stop.
In just a few seconds, everything seemed to have turned upside down.
The sand truck had finally stopped.
Grace and Lina were still in the car. They were slumped against their seats and groaned because of the impact, but they both knew they had survived!
They had really… survived!
“Lina, are you… okay?” Grace struggled to speak, and her bones ached. Her whole body felt as if it were falling apart.
However… it was so much better than what they had expected!
“I’m… okay…” Lina’s voice rang with a tremble. It sounded as if she had replied with much difficulty, but hearing her, Grace was relieved.
What the hell happened just now? They were just about to collide with the sand truck, but what was with the car that came rushing suddenly?
If it were not for the car, she and Lina would be dead by now.
That moment flashed across Grace’s mind like lightning. It was a silver-gray car that had rushed toward them. It… almost looked like it was trying to save their lives!
If it was a bad angle or if the sand truck had not stopped, the car might have crashed into the sand truck along with theirs!
Suadenly, Grace shuddered. ‘Brian’s car… seems to be the same color and model!
‘Could it… be Brian’s car?
‘Is it Brian? Is that possible?’
She sat up with difficulty. She endured the pain in her body and looked through the broken gla** window at the car that had crashed with theirs.
The front of the car had been deformed by the impact, and the door was dented. It looked like it was being opened from the inside with difficulty.
A figure staggered out of the car.
Grace’s eyes widened, and she stared at the figure in disbelief.
was… Brian. It really was Brian!
Even though she dared not believe it, what her eyes were seeing right now told her of the truth.
She watched him stumble toward her, his face smeared with blood. He looked like a mess.
He was the crown prince of the entertainment industry. He was usually well-dressed and neat in front of others. When had he ever looked like that?
The red blood dripped on his cream-white jacket, making the sight of him look even more shocking.
He reached her car door step by step, pulled it open, and bent over with some difficulty. His bloodstained face was tense.
“Are you okay? Are you hurt?”
were full of blood.
Grace’s nose instantly turned sore. The man was asking her if she was hurt even though he was obviously badly hurt and bleeding!
“You crashed into us on purpose, didn’t you? Why?” She sobbed.
“Because you were in the car.” It was the only answer he gave.
It was as if this answer already spoke for everything. She was in the car, so he would do anything to save her, even if it cost him his own life!
Just because… he loved her so much!
Grace, Lina, and Brian were taken to City First Hospital. Grace and Lina suffered relatively minor injuries. It was just some superficial injuries, nothing serious, but Brian was badly injured. The doctors rushed him to the operating room after a preliminary examination.
Grace waited outside the operating room, and Lina waited with her.
Watching her best friend so worried, Lina comforted her by saying, “Don’t worry, Brian is being operated on by City First’s specialists. He’ll be alright!”
Grace pressed her lips tightly but could not relax.
Lina stopped speaking and just held her best friend’s hand tightly.
The car accident today still frightened her when she recalled it. If it were not for Brian, she and Grace would probably be dead!
