Chapter 497
Meanwhile, Gareth was working in his office.
The next second, the silence was broken as Thomas flung the door open.
Gareth knitted his brows when he saw Thomas.
Thomas was a prudent man, so Gareth could tell from his action that something
must have gone wrong.
Just as he was thinking about it, Thomas blurted in a fluster, “Mr.Wickam,
Ms.Elisa got into an accident!”
Gareth’s heart jolted.
“Who did that?!”
“Ms.Elisa got into a car accident.Her car fell off the clifft”
At once, Gareth was stupefied.
He sprang up immediately and gasped, “Where is she?!”
In the hospital, Elisa was lying on the bed in a ward and had yet to awaken.

even broke one of her ribs.
Sitting in front of Elisa’s bed, Sheena and Rachel were a bundle of nerves.
Tears streamed down Rachel’s face incessantly as she sobbed.
“It’s all my fault…It’s all my fault…”
Sheena held Rachel’s hand and comforted her, “Don’t worry, Rach.Elisa will be
fine!”
Compared to Elisa’s injuries, Rachel’s injuries were minor.
The doctor treated her superficial wounds and put a bandage on the wound on
her forehead.
The two ladies did not notify Carle about the accident because they didn’t want
to affect his recovery and were worried that he would insist on getting out of bed
to visit Elisa.
“What exactly happened?”
Rachel bawled even harder, but she still repeated the incident in a trembling
voice.
“You know we have to pass through a very narrow street on the way
back.Suddenly, a van sped toward us and wanted to hit Elisa’s car.Elisa
managed to escape but little did we know there was another van coming after
us…Originally, ..”
Rachel was crying so hard that she could hardly catch her breath.
Sheena quickly held her hang tight and cooed, “Rach…”
Anyone would be distressed to hear about such an accident.
Moreover, Rachel was at the scene.
Even Sheena was frightened when she heard Rachel’s description.
Rachel snufiled and continued, “Originally, we could jump out of the car, but…I
was too stupid.My seatbelt was stuck, and the buckle was spoiled.Because of
me, Elisa didn’t jump out of the car.We were running out of time because the
vans were speeding toward us from both sides, so Elisa had no choice but to
drive off the cliff…”

There was a sudden change in Sheena’s expression.
“So, you guys actually drove off the cliff…”
Rachel’s body was still trembling.
“It’s all my fault.I couldn’t jump out of the car in ume.Otherwise, Elisa
wouldn’t…Thankfully, Elisa’s driving skill was superb.While the car was in free
fall, I could only scream hysterically, but Elisa was still controlling the direction,
and she chose to let her side collide with the ground first…”
Because of that, Elisa suffered a more serious injury than Rachel.
Rachel was guilt-stricken.
“If it wasn’t for my stupidity, Elisa wouldn’t have…”
The words stuck in her throat thereafter as she shook like a leaf.
Sheena didn’t dare to hug Rachel because the latter had injuries all over her
body, so she was afraid of hurting her.
“Rach, I know you feel terrible, but anyone would be frightened, given the
situation.Only a few could remain rational like Elisa.You’ve already done your
best.”
She comforted Rachel.
After pausing for a while, she continued, “Besides…”
Just then, someone barged into the ward
