Chapter 690 Accident In the Blink of an Eye
Cynthia’s eyes were filled with hatred. If her stare could kill, Everleigh would have died many times.
Everleigh sneered and said, “Cynthia, who are you to look at me like this? Look at you now. You brought this upon yourself. Why are you blaming it on others?”
“You b*tch. Shut up! If it wasn’t for you, I would still be the beloved daughter of the Jenkins family. Who do you think you are? How dare you treat me like this?” Cynthia shouted exasperatedly. She did not calm down one bit.
Everleigh sneered. “You really haven’t changed at all.”
“Why should I change? Don’t you think you’re at fault as well?”
Before Everleigh could say a word, someone in the crowd said, “Isn’t this the woman who was with the man from the Baker family before?”
“Yes. I heard that the members of the Jenkins family do not even dare to show up in public now.”
“How can she be so shameless? She must have gone crazy for men to do such a thing.”
Cynthia heard everything the people around her were saying. Her expression became gloomy and her mind was in a mess.
Everleigh looked at the people around and frowned slightly.
Before she could open her mouth to speak, she saw Cynthia go crazy all of a sudden. She unleashed great strength and pushed the person grabbing her away. Then, she ran straight out of the door.
Everleigh noticed that something was wrong and quickly chased after her.
She was a doctor, so she could tell that Cynthia was in a bad state. She could get into trouble at any time.
After Cynthia ran out of the hospital, she wanted to drive home.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
She did not want to hear others criticizing her. She really could not stand being criticized.
When Everleigh went out, Cynthia had already left in her car.
She took out her mobile phone in a hurry to call Alexander. However, before she could dial his number, she heard a loud bang from the left side. Everleigh looked at the direction of the sound and walked over while trembling.
At this time, Christopher and Erine, who were in the hospital, had just received news about Everleigh almost being stabbed. They hurried over, but they did not see her.
“Call Everleigh quickly.” Erine was anxious. She wondered if Everleigh had met with an accident.
Christopher took out his mobile phone and made a call. While dialing the number, he saw someone being pushed into the hospital entrance.
Everleigh was following behind with blood all over her body.
“Everleigh.”
She glanced at Christopher and said in a low voice, “Call the surgeons and Dr. Harrison. Cynthia got into a car accident. Hurry up.”
He did not waste any time and did as he was instructed.
Cynthia was pushed straight into the operating room. This time, another surgeon operated on her. Everleigh and Erine could only wait outside the operating theatre.
“Everleigh, what’s going on? I heard that someone was trying to kill you, but now…”
“Cynthia came to kill me, but because of what happened last time, she heard a lot of gossip. She could not accept it and drove off quickly. She got into a car accident a short while after,” Everleigh explained in a deep voice.
Her hands were stained with Cynthia’s blood.
Erine felt that it was dramatic. Cynthia came here to kill Everleigh, but she was now lying in the emergency room. Accidents were really unpredictable.
Everleigh thought about it for a while and decided to call Alexander. She wanted him to explain the situation to Cynthia’s parents to avoid any misunderstanding.
When he heard the news, he was shocked. He quickly asked, “When… When did this happen?”
“It just happened. Please tell her parents to come over.” After saying that, Everleigh hung up the phone.
Alexander thought for a moment and drove to the house to pick them up. It would be bad if any accident were to happen on the way.
He did not tell Saniogo about this. He decided to wait for the outcome.
When Yeezoo heard the news, he did not believe it. He quickly ran to Cynthia’s room to take a look. As expected, it was empty. There was no one inside the room.
“Stop searching. I’ll send you to the hospital. Hurry up,” Alexander said in a deep voice. He took them to the hospital. At the door of the operating theatre, a doctor happened to come out.
The surgeon in charge looked at Everleigh and said, “Dr. Trevino, I’m sorry. We have tried our best. The patient suffered from severe internal bleeding. She’s…”
When Yeezoo and Melissa came over, they happened to overhear the conversation. They were instantly stunned on the spot.
Alexander’s expression was not much better. He had never dreamt that it would turn out like this.
“Ah… Cynthia.” All of a sudden, Melissa let out a panic-stricken scream. Her shrill voice echoed throughout the hallway.
Everleigh turned her head and saw the couple on the verge of breaking down. She felt bad as well.
Although she did not like Cynthia, she had never thought of letting her die. She could not accept the fact that a living person was taken away just like that.
At this time, Cynthia was pushed out of the operating theatre. The white cloth that was covering her was stained with blood.
It was impossible to ignore. She could not believe that a person who was just in front of her was lying there at this moment.
Yeezoo and Melissa quickly rushed over, removed the white cloth, and looked at the woman lying on the bed with her eyes closed.
“Cynthia, open your eyes and look at me. I’m your mother, Cynthia,” Melissa’s voice cracked as she spoke. The people who heard this could not help but feel their hearts ache.
It was a mother begging her daughter.
All she wanted was for Cynthia to open her eyes and look at her.
However, the woman lying there did not open her eyes at all.
When Everleigh heard her, tears rolled down her cheeks. She regretted not catching up to her. If she had caught up with her, such a tragedy would not have happened.
“Cynthia, I’m your father. Wake up. Didn’t you say that you liked that set of jewelry? I’ll buy it for you. Open your eyes, okay?” Yeezoo still could not believe what he just saw. How could his daughter be lying here? It must be an illusion. It must be.
“Uncle Yeezoo,” Alexander called out. His eyes were turning red.
“Alexander, do you think she’s still upset? Is that why she’s not opening her eyes?”
Alexander looked at him with red eyes, but he could not say a word. He did not know what to say. Cynthia was dead. It was a fact that could not be changed.
Melissa slumped down on the side of the bed. She held Cynthia’s hand and cried loudly. Words could not describe the sorrow she felt at this moment.
Yeezoo heard her cries and had no choice but to come back to his senses. Tears streamed down his face. “Cynthia…” His mournful tone traveled to the hearts of everyone present.
Seeing this, the nurses could only help them up as they sent Cynthia’s body to the morgue.
Melissa and Yeezoo wanted to follow, but Alexander and the nurses stopped them.
“Uncle Yeezoo, we have to accept reality. She’s gone.”
“Nonsense, how could she have gone? She’s reluctant to leave us. She won’t abandon us,” Yeezoo said incredulously. However, the sadness in his eyes proved that he had known everything. He just could not accept the reality.
Alexander just kept quiet as he had nothing to say.
