Chapter 344
At first, Tina was simply sitting in the car as she waited for the police to guide the vehicles to another route.
However, she couldn‘t sit still anymore when she saw that person.
The man on the stretcher wasn‘t just any stranger, but someone she was familiar with. Until today, she still harbored guilt and remorse toward that man.
He was John Carter!
“John!” Tina got out of her car in a hurry and rushed forward for a closer look.
However, the police officers stopped her from entering the scene.
This time, Tina was sure that she didn‘t see it wrongly. She was certain that the man on the stretcher was John Carter!
After five years, she didn‘t expect to see John again. At least, not in this way. John was a kind man who treated her like his own family.
“Officer, I‘m not here to stir trouble. That man involved in the accident is my brother! I know him!” Tina said with excitement.
However, the officer shot her a look of doubt.
The people surrounding her couldn‘t help but remark sarcastically, “And you expect us to believe that? Why don‘t you just compare the car he had and yours!” “You two don‘t share any similarities at all. What‘s more, judging by the way you dress, it doesn‘t look like you‘re on the same level as him. Just admit it! You‘re here to get something out of this tragedy, right?” “This woman apparently has the looks,
but not the brains!” Tina didn‘t have the means to prove her identity. So, she could only stare as the ambulance left the scene with John.
She knew it was useless to ask the officers the hospital John was being sent to. Instead, she rushed back to the villa and searched for the contacts of local hospitals in the area. Then, she relied on the most traditional way of getting information; cold–calling and emailing the hospitals to look out for John‘s arrival.
“Hi, can I know if you‘ve received any admission of a man involved in a car accident on the street called Les Champs–Élysées?”
A night went by, and she finally received some replies from just a few hospitals in the afternoon the next day.
The patient‘s life was not in danger, but the hospital couldn‘t disclose more information about personal details due to confidentiality. Tina couldn‘t help but sigh with relief when she found out that John‘s life was not in jeopardy.
However, she wasn‘t planning on meeting John in person. After all, they were sworn into siblings only in the heat of the moment. After she was rescued novelbin
from drowning and survived the ordeal, Tina escaped to Paris and lost all contact with John. Soon, five years had passed. Tina couldn‘t bring herself to show up in front of John anymore. After Tina rested for a while, she was awakened by a sudden phone call from Cindy. “Tina! Come to where I am now this instant!” Cindy continued arrogantly, “I‘m about to go shopping with a few of my friends, and we need someone to carry our bags around. Get your ass here right now!” Soon, Tina appeared in front of them. Cindy‘s friends were wives of local renowned entrepreneurs who held respectable statuses. The
moment they saw Tina, they were all shocked. “Isn‘t she the fashion designer Linda? I heard she‘s really famous in the fashion industry! I bet you paid a lot for her to come here personally.” “I paid her? She‘s not worth that money!” Cindy continued with a condescending tone. “Don‘t you know who my husband is? One word from him, and she‘ll be dead in seconds! She‘s just a maid to me. You can ask her to do whatever you want!” “Mrs. Langford, your husband must love you very much...!” “I heard you attended the duke‘s family feast with Mr. Langford yesterday. How was his house? I bet it‘s really luxurious!” Cindy‘s face dropped at the mention of the family feast. “I don‘t want to talk about it!” “What happened that made you so unhappy?” they asked curiously.
