Chapter 1617: Chapter 1617: Too Fast
“By the way, here’s the water I just bought.” Aria Jackson put the plastic bag on the coffee table, “The ones in your fridge have been there for days. I took the liberty of throwing them away. You don’t mind, do you?”
Hudson Chester was slightly taken aback, clearly a bit surprised. Aria Jackson’s act of buying water seed overly enthusiastic.
“Thank you.” He pondered for a mont, then added, “Are you free this weekend? Let treat you to dinner. You’ve been very helpful these days.”
Aria Jackson quickly declined: “No need, you helped treat this arm of mine. Who knows when I might trouble you again? Such a small thing, no need to worry about it.”
Speaking of her arm, Hudson Chester’s gaze involuntarily fell on the bandage, “Although the wound has healed, you still need to be careful. Don’t lift heavy objects, don’t exert too much force, and drive less for now… Which arm did you use to carry the water just now?”
Aria Jackson was montarily stunned, “…The uninjured arm!”
Hudson Chester nodded seriously, “Hmm, be more careful in the future.”
Aria Jackson nodded awkwardly.
Strangely, she always felt awkward around him, acting shy and unable to behave freely.
Is it really because of a psychological shadow? A shadow, indeed…
Bobby and Lionel returned from taking out the trash, and Aria Jackson breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had been freed, and took her leave.
She left Bobby behind to wait for Aster Jodie, while Lionel needed to return to the departnt to leave a record and greet the colleague responsible for this area.
Aria Jackson was still on her holiday, so she could go ho and rest now.
She got into her car, and a doctor’s advice rang in her mind for no reason: drive less for now…
Aria Jackson glanced at her own arm, thinking: at worst, I can just drive slower.
She drove onto the road.
Clearwater City at night was far from quiet. Cars coming her way blurred her eyes with one set of headlights after another, leaving her anxious and restless.
Aria Jackson drove wildly, used to fast driving, and this slow dawdling was not her style, leaving her repressed and truly unaccustod.
She was hesitating whether to speed up when suddenly sothing didn’t feel right.
It was unusually dark around.
This was a city, not a rural path. Even without street lights, the shop signs on both sides should be enough to illuminate.
Why was it so dark?
Aria Jackson gripped the steering wheel, drove on bewilderedly for a while, and freed one hand to open her phone, pull up the map, and check her current location.
At this mont, she suddenly felt soone beside her.
She turned her head to look, and her mind buzzed!
She saw a girl…
The girl was sitting in the passenger seat, wearing a hospital gown with stripes, clear as day…
…Was it a ghost?
Aria Jackson held her breath, even her blood seed frozen. She stared unblinkingly at the figure, with only shock and terror in her heart.
The girl, however, wasn’t looking at her. Her eyes were gazing forward, her mouth opening and closing silently: Hudson… Chester… I… love… you…
Aria Jackson didn’t know what to think at that mont, her mind was completely blank!
A sharp screech of brakes suddenly sounded ahead, followed by sothing colliding with a loud bang!
Aria Jackson lost consciousness.
…
Hudson Chester quickly fell asleep after Aria Jackson and the others left.
His ho had spare, brand-new bedding that didn’t disrupt his rest, and given the energy-draining surgery he perford today, he fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down.
He hadn’t slept for even two hours when he received a call from the hospital: “Dr. Chester, a car accident patient has just arrived at the hospital! The na is Aria Jackson, she’s your patient, currently in ergency care, can you co over imdiately?”
Hudson Chester was in a daze for a while, nearly thinking he was dreaming.
When she left, she ntioned she might trouble him again at so point. This…this… happened too soon, didn’t it?
