Chapter 1606
Staring at the contents of the box, Vicky and Aurora were speechless for a good while.
It was Aurora who reacted first. Fuming, she picked up her phone and dialed a number.
"Aurora?" The call was quickly answered, and the person on the other end sounded confused. "Is your cat causing
trouble again?"
"Your cat is the one causing trouble,” Aurora retorted irritably. "Noah, are you out of your mind?! What kind of gift
did you send to Vicky? Can't you stop being a cold blanket?"
Noah sounded utterly bewildered. "What's wrong with the gift I sent to Vicky?"
"Stop pretending. Wasn't it you who sent those decapitated dolls? Seriously, Noah, did you pick up some shoddy
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdolls from a street vendor?"
Noah still looked puzzled. "Shoddy dolls? I didn't send any dolls. I sent a plush toy modeled after my Panther!"
Aurora blinked. "You didn't send those dolls?"
"I have no clue what's going on, okay?"
Aurora turned her head and saw an unopened gift box by the couch. Only the boxes from Harvey and Noah had not
been opened.
Harvey would never have given such a terrible gift, so Aurora naturally assumed it was Noah, who was known for
being unreliable.
"They...really weren't from you?"
Noah was exasperated. "Do you take me for a fool?"
Aurora was about to retort when Vicky's phone suddenly rang.
Vicky answered the call and greeted, "Harvey."
"Vicky, I just realized that the birthday gift I got you seems to have been left in my car."
Harvey drove Vicky and Aurora back after the birthday party. Vicky's gifts were temporarily placed in the car's
trunk, and since Aurora stayed over at Vicky's place, she enthusiastically offered to carry Vicky's gifts out when they
got out of the car.
Aurora distinctly remembered that she had not forgotten to take the gift.
As Vicky looked at the contents of the box, everything became clear to her.
"Maybe I forgot to grab it... It's getting late. Why don't you go home? Just hand it to me tomorrow."
Harvey knew Aurora was staying in Vicky's place and knew it was inappropriate for him to deliver the gift at this
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhour." Sure. See you tomorrow, then."
"See you-"
Before Vicky could finish, her voice was cut short by the sharp screech on the other end of the line, followed by the
deafening sound of a car crash.
"Harvey!" Vicky paled and stood up abruptly.
Harvey's end of the line was silent no matter how many times Vicky called out to him.
Aurora spotted the dark look on Vicky’s face and asked," What's wrong?"
"Harvey might be in a car accident." Vicky tensed. "I heard a screech and something crashing..."
Not daring to delay another moment, she hung up and called the police.
An hour later, Vicky and Aurora arrived at the hospital. Harvey had been rushed into the surgery room.
Noah's place was closer to the hospital, so he arrived earlier than the two.
