Chapter 27

They swarmed in like sharks smelling blood.

Zhu Wanwan panicked, actually thinking of slamming the gas pedal to force a way out.

But the steering wheel wasn’t straightened, and as she floored the accelerator, the car shot directly into the greenbelt.

Zhou Heng grabbed the wheel, and the car swerved sharply, the passenger side slamming straight into a tree, snapping it in half.

Neither of them wore seatbelts.

Zhu Wanwan crashed through the windshield, thrown out of the car.

By the time I arrived at the hospital, she was still in surgery.

The child was born prematurely.

Rushed into the ICU.

And she was still hemorrhaging, fighting for her life.

Zhou Heng was in slightly better shape-

The bracelet he bought from me was pressed against his left chest, shielding his heart from the impact.

At least, it saved his life.

But his right leg was pierced by a broken, rusty steel guardrail, the tetanus infection severe.

To survive, amputation was the only option.

I wasn’t surprised.

All of this was within my expectations.

In fact, I wasn’t even satisfied.

I turned and asked Zhou Heng’s secretary to take me to see the child.

He hesitated, wanting to say something.

It wasn’t until I saw the incubator that I understood what he was struggling with.
