Chapter 290
Chapter 290
The truck suddenly appeared at a very fast speed. When Meredith saw it, she screamed uncontrollably.
At that moment, she felt that everything was over...
Dennis was shocked when he saw the situation. He knew that he was driving very fast, but the timing
of the trunk was also very creepy that he didn't even notice it.
Instinctively, he looked to the side of the guardrail. He had no other choice, the truck at such a speed
straight over, if hit, even if this was a luxury car worth tens of millions, it would be smashed into a pile of
scrap metal.
He slammed on the accelerator and without stopping, the car crashed out of the guardrail and into the
river below.
The sudden accident scared the cars behind them into rear-ending. A dozen cars collided and the
scene was very chaotic.
The car fell into the river, which was Dennis's choice and the only way to preserve a chance of survival.
However, because of the impact, Dennis had fainted. Meredith was tied to her seat belt and didn't lose
consciousness, but sadly, the car began to slowly drown...
The murky river water invaded their car little by little, Meredith struggled to open the door but found that
under the strong water pressure, she could not even struggle. She could only watch the car's little
oxygen was squeezed away little by little.
Was this... The end?
Despair welled up in Meredith's chest. Slowly, the vision was blurry.
"Easton..."
Finally, in front of her was her child, and... The man she thought she would hate for the rest of her life.
The driver of the large truck also collided with other cars. He held the main responsibility for this
accident. He might go to jail, but there was no fear or panic on his face. On the contrary, there was a
dissolution expression on his face.
He lay on the steering wheel and said to the person on the other end of the phone before he lost
consciousness, "I have done everything you want me to do. You have to talk and count!"
Derek, who was about to leave the hotel to look for Meredith, paused and his heart suddenly throbbed.
The pain, like a thorn pricking him, shook his body.
What happened?
Parker, who came out of the room and was about to meet Meredith, saw Derek's strange appearance
and sneered, "What's wrong? Can't you walk away because I beat you? You don't seem to have much
ability."
Derek suppressed the throbbing and did not look at Parker, "Shut up."
The unease raised a lot in Derek's heart. He suddenly reached out and grabbed Parker's collar, "Did
you do something again? Where's Meredith now?"
This feeling was the same as when Meredith had dystocia. Thus, was Meredith in danger?
"What I did has nothing to do with you. Let me go!"
Parker was also a little angry and wanted to throw away Derek's hand. Just then, a piece of urgent
news broke out on the TV in the lobby of the hotel.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"A large truck driving illegally on a cross-river bridge collided with a speeding Maserati. Now the
Maserati has overturned and fallen into the river, the life and death of the people in the car are not
known, because the river is swift, there is no progress in rescue for the time being..."
Parker looked at the news in a daze. The footage from the surveillance video was frightening and it
could tell how terrible it was, but...
What shocked him even more was that the car was he gave to Dennis and asked him to take Meredith
away!
Derek looked at Parker suddenly upset and his whole body facing the screen in agony. An ominous
guess surfaced in Xavier's heart and he immediately released his hand, "Don't tell me... This car is
yours... and Meredith, was in it."
Parker could no longer answer. His lips moved, but no sound was made.
The absurd reality made him not know what to say. "Impossible..."
Parker muttered to himself, "How did this happen?"
Why it was exactly Meredith's car?
"No!"
Parker suddenly burst out with a strong force, pushing Derek who was holding him still away and then
ran out as if he was crazy.
Derek saw him like this and immediately understood what had happened.
Something really happened to Meredith this time!
He didn't care about anything else. After confirming the location of the accident, he rushed out
immediately.
He sped all the way to the scene of the accident.
Now, because of the series of collisions, the area had been cordoned off and only a few police officers
were maintaining the order.
Parker and Derek arrived almost at the same time. The two men, who had always been calm and
reserved, lost their composure in public for the first time.
"What's going on? Why isn't anyone rescuing?"
Derek was furious when he saw that there were only a few rescue workers and that no one had gone
down to retrieve the car.
The rescue condition was like this and time was life, and if they continued to dawdle like this,
Meredith... Was there any chance of survival for her?
"I'm sorry, it's been raining these past few days. The water level is too high and the current is very
rough. Even if we send someone down, it will be a waste of time."
A rescue worker came over. "Besides, the experts have already calculated that the car rushed down
extremely fast, and the inertia alone was enough to cause serious injuries to the people inside.
Besides, when we got there, the car was already far away, and now going down to rescue... It doesn't
mean much."
"What do you mean it doesn't mean much? It's human life!"
Derek tugged at their collars. He looked at the rushing water and his mind went blank.
Subconsciously, he pushed the speaker away again, untied his tie, and was about to jump off the
damaged railing.
Meredith must be here.
She must not be dead yet. He had to save her...
"This gentleman, calm down! If you go down now, you will sacrifice your life for nothing!"
The staff at the side saw this and quickly held him down, but Derek struggled as if he was crazy to
jump down from here and save Meredith.
"What's the meaning of 'sacrifice for nothing'? She must still be alive. It's you who are afraid of death
and not going to rescue her. You are delaying the golden rescue time..."
Seeing that Derek was agitated, several rescue workers quickly controlled him. If they didn't rescue the
person in the car and another one died, their responsibility would be even greater.
Parker was looking at the current as if he had lost his soul. Originally, he just didn't want Meredith to be
taken away, and he didn't want to lose her again. He wanted to protect her!
But why did this happen?
In particular, when he saw the time of the accident notification was a few minutes after he called, his
heart seemed to be torn apart.
