Chapter 479: 477 Fate repeats itself, wanting his life
“Scared?” Tim Payne’s voice was deep and hoarse, whispering in her ear.
Cressida didn’t speak. A flash of lightning split the night sky, letting in a brief mont of light. She clearly saw the heat in Tim’s eyes and her flushed face had nowhere to hide.
Thunder followed closely behind, a “boom” that made her heart falter.
Entwined in intimacy, his scorching kisses trailed over every inch of her body…
Leaving a burning trail,
setting her entire being on fire.
“Don’t be scared, without preparation, I won’t do anything to you.” Tim kissed her for a while, then smiled and said.
Because…
No asures.
He wasn’t dating Cressida just for that, so naturally he didn’t carry those things with him. As for Cressida, she certainly wouldn’t have those things prepared at ho.
Tim kissed the corner of her lips, “Next ti, I’ll be prepared in advance.”
Cressida’s face felt hot.
They fell asleep in each other’s arms, but the person beside her grew hotter and hotter.
Later,
Cressida helped him again.
The rain fell all night. When she woke up and passed the balcony, she found the sheets from last night already washed and hung up. There was breakfast on the table, but the culprit had already fled.
There are many ways for couples to be intimate.
Thinking back on the events of last night, Cressida only felt her ears burning and her heart restless.
A month ago, she could not have imagined doing such things with Tim.
——
When she arrived at the nursing ho, she was half an hour late, but didn’t expect to see Zoe Payne and William Hale there. Today was prenatal check-up day; they stopped by to visit on the way back from the hospital.
“…The plum slices were particularly good. I almost finished them all last ti.” Zoe was chatting.
“If you like them, I’ll make more next ti.” Her grandmother smiled widely.
During her stay at the hospital, she ca to understand the Payne family mbers better and found they all had good personalities. Looking at them, she felt assured about her granddaughter’s future with Tim.
“Your main task now is to take good care of your health. Those plum slices must have worked; my morning sickness has improved quite a lot lately.”
Zoe’s morning sickness fluctuated greatly.
After leaving the nursing ho, Zoe wanted to seize the opportunity since she was feeling well to go shopping and eat, “No ti today?”
“I have an appointnt with your brother later to test drive a car.”
“Can I co too? We can eat together after your test drive.” Zoe had nothing else to do at ho, and William had taken the day off to accompany her. When the car sales representative saw them, they were montarily startled.
The experienced female salesperson imdiately noticed Zoe’s pregnancy and recomnded a family car, saying it was very safe and convenient for traveling with a baby. If she had any intention of buying, they could arrange a test drive at her ho.
Zoe frowned and asked William in a low voice, “Can you tell I’m pregnant?”
“They say a pregnant woman has a certain aura.” Zoe said.
William shook his head, “I can’t tell.”
About ten minutes later, Tim arrived. When William greeted him, he joked, “Don’t get too close to my brother-in-law.”
He already had a sister-in-law he considered manipulative and didn’t want to have an equally manipulative brother-in-law.
“I know my boundaries.”
Tim said, then looked at Cressida, “Ready for the test drive?”
When she nodded, the dealership staff quickly led them to the test vehicle. Tim kindly opened the door for her and even helped her on board, prompting the sales staff to silently marvel:
What a lovely couple.
They couldn’t hear the couple’s whispered conversation from a distance.
“It’s just getting in the car, I don’t need help.” Cressida said.
Tim bluntly said, “I fear your legs are weak.”
“I…”
My legs!
Being reminded of last night’s madness brought a hint of annoyance to Cressida’s eyes, signaling Tim to shut up.
In broad daylight, it would be terrible if soone overheard.
She tried to stay calm, but the red tips of her ears betrayed her unease.
Every move the two made looked like flirting in Zoe’s eyes, prompting her to snap a few photos and send them to their mother, [Mom, my brother really has opened up.]
In broad daylight, in front of everyone, who knows what he said to his future sister-in-law to make the always rational and calm Miss Jones blush so deeply.
Really unbearable to watch.
As the test drive vehicle pulled out of the parking area, Zoe returned to the dealership’s VIP lounge, drank so water, and browsed her phone, looking for nearby food options.
“Hungry? I’ll have Zac Cruz get so food.” William Hale was always observing his wife’s condition.
“I’m not that hungry yet. I’m just feeling better today, and since I’m able to eat without nausea, I want to eat more.”
Assistant Law stood to the side. Since his boss was on a test drive with his girlfriend, he was naturally left behind. He watched as William casually sat next to Zoe, kissed the corner of her lips, catching him off guard and almost choking on the sight.
This is still Mr. Hale?
Zac Cruz and Kyle Lowe, standing off to the side, shook their heads helplessly at his shocked expression:
Really, he must be inexperienced!
Zac patted his shoulder and said in a low voice, “This is what life with the boss’s wife is like. You should get used to it ahead of ti.”
——
anwhile, Tim was sitting in the passenger seat, accompanying Cressida on the test drive.
The staff mber sat in the back, attentively introducing the car’s basic operations and features while promptly asking about her driving experience.
“The driving experience of this car is really excellent, especially on so uneven roads. The shock absorption is exceptional, making it perfect for families with elderly and children who are afraid of bumps.”
“If I place the order now, how long will it take to get the new car?” Cressida enjoyed the test drive and wanted to finalize the decision.
“By the end of the month at the latest,” the salesperson bead upon hearing this.
“Is that settled?” Tim asked.
Cressida nodded, “We’ve been looking at cars for a while now. The more we look, the more overwheld we get. Let’s go with this one. It’s almost lunchti, let’s head back quickly.”
It’s said that pregnant won get hungry easily; Cressida was worried that Zoe was getting anxious.
The test drive route wasn’t busy, with a river running alongside, separated by a barrier, and safety signs reminding drivers to exercise caution along the riverside. Cressida turned the steering wheel, preparing to turn the car around.
As she turned, she naturally checked the surroundings. Although a small truck was heading toward them, she assud the driver would slow down and yield…
But to her surprise, the truck only sped up.
In fact,
it increased its speed.
Cressida’s heart skipped a beat. Her grip on the steering wheel tightened instinctively, trying to steer away quickly.
“Look out!” Tim held his breath.
He suddenly rembered his sister’s past experience.
Falling into the sea,
A car accident,
No one survived!
The sa thing was repeating itself after twenty years. At this mont, fate held him by the throat, causing his heart to race uncontrollably.
Was soone once again trying to kill him?
“Jump!” Tim shouted, but it was too late.
It all happened too fast. In the blink of an eye, within just three to five seconds, Cressida reacted quickly, but even so, the truck still hit the rear of their car!
The huge impact changed the car’s direction—
The car hurtled toward the barrier!
The banks of the river were full of silt, frozen into hard soil in the cold, soft and muddy after thawing, causing the tires to lose grip and the car to spiral out of control!
The barrier was hit, forming a large gap. The early spring wind carried a chill, and with a breath, the car plunged into the river, while the truck responsible for the accident had already fled the scene.
Back in the VIP lounge, Zoe accidentally knocked over the glass on the table.
Water spilled everywhere.
The staff hurried to clean up, scrambling so much that the car models on the table fell to the ground and into the water, causing a pang of anxiety in her heart.
