The Contract Marriage

Chapter 322 A Terrible Traffic Accident

About two hours later, Julian's plane safely landed on the ground. Sarah sat in the car and personally came to pick them up. About half an hour later, Julian finally returned to Villa of Cooper Family.

Julian's eye surgery was very successful, which made the entire Cooper Family very happy. Everyone felt like they had injected a stimulant, feeling that this family was getting better and better.

Of course, among all these people, only one was an exception.

She was the maid, Hannah.

During the time Julian left, she woke up every day in a nightmare. She was constantly tortured by what she had done. She did not know when this situation would end. Every time she thought of Mrs. Holmes’s words, she would be frightened. She felt that she had nowhere to go.

The only way: It was to steal the child from the Cooper Family, but. . . Every time she saw Stephen's cute look, she didn't dare imagine if the child would end up in the hands of someone like Mrs. Holmes, what would happen?

After thinking about it again and again, Hannah felt that Mrs. Holmes was very likely to be threatening her. She even deliberately took advantage of the opportunity to go out and went to the law firm to ask about Ethan's situation.

The lawyer gave her a detailed explanation that even if the person who drugged him was not the main culprit, because it had already caused serious consequences to the victim, she would be sentenced to at least five or six years in prison.

When she heard the lawyer's words, Hannah seemed to see a glimmer of hope. A few days after she asked the law firm, she used the excuse that there was something at home and resigned from the Cooper Family.

Although Sarah wanted to keep her, when she heard that Hannah’s parents were sick. She didn’t insist. When Hannah left, Sarah even gave her an extra month's salary.

Hannah held the money in her hand and was at a loss. She really wanted to tell Sarah the truth. She wanted to tell her everything.

But when she thought about how she definitely would not be able to escape the consequences of going to jail, she still did not say anything. She only bowed gratefully to Sarah, then took her bag and left.

She really could not do anything about stealing Stephen. When she heard the news of Ethan's accident, she had already been condemned by her conscience. After hearing the lawyer's explanation, she understood one thing.

If Mrs. Holmes wanted to blackmail her about the medicine, Vivian, who had already been arrested, would have one more crime, which was that she had deliberately committed murder. She would have to face at least ten years of punishment. After understanding this point, Hannah left the Cooper Family. She called Mrs. Holmes and told her that she wanted to meet her.

Receiving Hannah's call, Mrs. Holmes thought that she had already carried Stephen away, so she happily went out the door. She walked towards the entrance of the community, as Hannah said she wanted to see her at the entrance.

When Mrs. Holmes walked out of the community, she saw that Hannah was indeed waiting for her on

the sidewalk across the street, but there was nothing on her hand. Mrs. Holmes's face fell and she walked over with a cold face. Seeing Hannah dragging a suitcase, Mrs. Holmes slightly frowned.

"Where are you going?"

"Auntie, I have resigned from the Cooper Family. I have to leave this place in the future. And I will never come back. These fifty thousand yuan was given to me by your daughter back then. Now, I will return it all to you!" Hannah handed the leather paper bag in her hand to Mrs. Holmes as she spoke.

There was fifty thousand yuan in it. It was given to her by Vivian to bribe her back then. She did not dare to touch a single cent of the money. Now it was time to return it.

Mrs. Holmes took the paper bag and looked at her in disbelief. "What do you mean? You are not coming back? What about the child? If you don't help me, I will report to the police. I will tell them that you drugged Ethan and made him unconscious for a few months. Do you want to. . ."

Before Mrs. Holmes finished speaking, she was interrupted by Hannah. "Auntie, I have consulted a lawyer. If that matter is really exposed, then your daughter is the main culprit, and I am only an accomplice. She will be the same as Lucas, and will be sentenced to more than ten years for intentional murder. And if I am really sentenced, if I expose the fact that your daughter has changed the child in front of the Cooper family, I can reduce my sentence, but your daughter will probably be released after twenty years. So, I'm sorry. I will not do anything evil anymore."

Hannah did not have the courage to turn herself in. But she also did not want to continue doing this kind of heartless thing, so she chose to leave.

Seeing Hannah dragging her suitcase across the road, Mrs. Holmes pulled her arm. "You can't do this! You can't just walk away like this! If you leave, who will help me?"

Hannah's arm was pulled by Mrs. Holmes, so she turned around to look at her. "Auntie, I advise you not to do it anymore. This kind of thing will be punished! You also have children. Accumulate some virtues for them!"

Hannah then forcefully pushed Mrs. Holmes away and dragged her suitcase as she quickly took a few steps forward. She reached out to stop a taxi.

Seeing she was really going to get in the car and leave, Mrs. Holmes carried the leather paper bag and chased after Hannah.

"You can't leave! You can't leave! Now, only you can help me. . . "

The driver got out of the car and helped Hannah put the suitcase in the trunk before sitting back in the driver's seat. Hannah pushed Mrs. Holmes away and quickly sat in the car and slammed the door shut.

The taxi quickly started and drove away.

"Hannah! You can't do this! You're a murderer! I will sue you! Just you wait. . ." Mrs. Holmes chased the taxi and scolded as she ran, but the car drove very fast. After a while, it completely disappeared.

Mrs. Holmes chased until she was out of breath and saw that there was no trace of the taxi on the road in front of her. Her eyes immediately darkened. She hugged the leather bag and looked depressed as she wanted to turn around and go home.

Squeak!!

Clang -!

An ear-piercing braking sound was heard, followed by a loud sound, a leather paper bag suddenly flew into the air, hundreds of brand new RMB floated down in the air. . .

…

Mr. Holmes had been sitting at home watching TV after breakfast today. He originally wanted to go out for a walk. But his wife said she wanted to go out for a while and asked him to stay at home and watch the house for a while, so he didn't want to go anywhere.

Mr. Holmes saw that it was ten o'clock in the morning at home. It had been two hours his wife still hadn't come back. He turned off the TV and closed the door with the key, went downstairs. He wanted to go out and look for her.

After walking a few steps out of the unit door, he saw a neighbour walking over with two traffic police officers. When they saw him, the neighbour pointed at him and said to the two traffic police officers, "He's the Mr. Holmes you're looking for."

Mr. Holmes stopped and looked at the person in front of him in confusion. But before he could say anything, he heard one of the traffic police officers say, "It's like this. There was a terrible traffic accident not far from the entrance. Some witnesses said that the injured person was your wife. We came to find you to verify it,"

Mr. Holmes's expression suddenly changed. He looked at the two traffic police in panic. "What. . . What

did you say? I. . . My wife got into a car accident? Where is she? Where is she?"

Seeing Mr. Holmes's nervous expression, one of the police officers said, "She is currently being rescued in the Municipal hospital. You'd better go quickly! Our car is just outside. Come with us now!"

Mr. Holmes was so nervous that he could not speak. He just kept nodding his head. "Okay. . . "

The traffic police took Mr. Holmes into the car and drove the car to the downtown hospital.

Mr. Holmes nervously looked at the traffic policeman beside him and asked, "How. . . How is my wife now?"

"Don't be too anxious. She has already been sent to the resuscitation room, but we don't know the specific situation. Everything will have to wait for the doctor's result!"

Mr. Holmes heard what the other party said and nodded. "Then. . . Did the culprit get caught?"

"He has been at the scene and has not left at all."

Mr. Holmes nodded. When he thought of his wife's current situation, his heart was tightly clenched.

The car soon arrived at the hospital in the city center. Mr. Holmes, accompanied by two traffic police officers, went straight to the resuscitation room. When he saw the tightly shut door of the resuscitation room, Mr. Holmes's body suddenly went limp. He staggered and fell onto the waiting chair in the corridor.

"My wife. . ." Mr. Holmes cried out loud. Thinking about his family's current situation, he could not help

but shed tears.

One of the traffic police saw his sad look and walked to sit beside him. He looked at him and comforted him. "Sir, there's something I need to tell you." The traffic police handed Mr. Holmes a leather bag as they spoke.

Mr. Holmes wept as he looked at the paper bag in his hand and looked at the traffic policeman in confusion.

"It's like this. Auntie had been holding this paper bag before the car accident. When she was in the car accident, all the money was spilled out. Fortunately, all the money was found. There was a total of fifty thousand yuan. Take a look."

Mr. Holmes lowered his head and looked at the money in the leather bag. It was exactly five bundles. He did not have the mood to see how much money was in the bag. He just said with a sad face. "What's the use of so much money? I only hope that my wife will be fine. . . "

After he said that, he looked up at the operating theatre and his heart tightened.

Mrs. Holmes's surgery lasted for five hours. Under the full support of the doctor, she was finally pulled back from the brink of death. When Mrs. Holmes was pushed into the ward, Mr. Holmes looked at his wife who was in a coma and cried again.

The doctor looked at the old man who was in his fifties or sixties and said, "Sir, please calm down! I will tell you about the patient’s condition. . ."

Mr. Holmes immediately wiped his tears. He looked at the doctor in front of him and asked nervously,

"Doctor, Is my wife out of danger now?"

The doctor's face looked much more serious when he heard him, but he still said tactfully, "The patient had a ruptured spleen and caused a haemorrhage. When she wakes up, you must serve her well. Don't make her angry. Try to calm her down as much as possible. Although the bleeding has been stopped now, we can't rule out whether there will be a second time. . . "

When Mr. Holmes heard the doctor's words, he immediately nodded and agreed. "Thank you, doctor. I know. I will serve her well. . . "

The attending physician reminded him of some details before he left the ward.

Mr. Holmes looked at his wife who was still unconscious on the hospital bed and could not help but shed tears again. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Mrs. Holmes woke up three days later. She had a few fractures in her body. In addition to the severe rupture of her spleen, she could not move at all. Thinking about her home, she turned to look at Mr. Holmes beside the bed. Tears also flowed down: "Vivian’s father. . . If I leave. . . What will you do?"

She was still very clear about the condition of her body. Now that she had spoken, she could feel a heart-piercing pain. Although Mr. Holmes had always comforted her that she would be fine, she still had a bad premonition. It seemed that she would never be able to leave the hospital this time.
