Chapter 478 An Unexpected Savior


    Seraphina experienced a sudden tightness in her chest, as though her body had lost all its strength. Yet, her reflexes kicked in, giving her a split-second advantage over the average person. In an instant, she stumbled backward, leaning away as the massi


    barreled toward her.


    The powerful wind generated by the truck threatened to drag her under its wheels, the cold air mingling with the hot exhaust fumes from the engine, rushing right toward her.


    Herplexion turned pallor.


    Suddenly, a hand seized her arm from behind, warm and firm. The sensation of narrowly escaping death flooded her senses, leaving her drenched in sweat.


    As the truck roared past, Seraphina fell to the ground, a jarring pain shooting through her as she heard something in her body crack. A wave of agony seized her, causing her muscles to convulse. She had not always been fortunate enough to have Orion push her out of harm''s way.


    The numbness was followed by a sharp, biting pain.


    Everything around her faded into darkness, and dizziness enveloped her, the silence pressing in around


    her like a heavy nket.


    Though she couldn''t speak, her eyes searched the sky above.


    The man behind her lifted her gently; his voice was familiar yet distant.


    She strained to discern his identity-it was Wilson.


    "Seraphina, don''t close your eyes! We''re almost at the hospital!"


    This side of Wilson was new to her. She stripped away the mask of gentleness and humility, unveiling a frantic, red-eyed man. His grip on her shoulders was careful yet desperate. "What do I do? If Mr. Emeris finds out that Ms. Seraphina had an ident here, I''ll be in deep trouble," Joseph blurted out, panic flooding his voice.


    "Joseph, just focus on your own responsibilities," Thomas said, his tone steady despite the tension. "I''ve already informed Mr. Emeris and Mr. Sivir about Ms. Seraphina''s situation. They''ll be here soon. All we need to do is coborate with the police and present the necessary evidence."


    Thomas''s voice remained calm, but the underlying fear was evident, buried deep beneath the surface.


    He couldn''t bear to imagine the consequences if Seraphina didn''t survive.


    That would be his failure!


    He forced himself to maintain hisposure; staying calm in a crisis was part of his job.


    As Seraphina gazed out at the sun-dappled world outside, watching the branches sway in the wind, her mind was filled with shadows of the night and blinding light, along with the image of that speeding truck hurtling toward her.

    A shiver ran through her, but she exhaled in relief.

    Thomas had been closely monitoring the activity in the hospital room, and when he saw her eyes flutter open, he rushed in, his voice thick with emotion.


    ""Ms. Cross..."


    Seraphina blinked, the reality sinking in. "Did they catch him?"


    Her voice came out hoarse and raspy,


    Thomas quickly poured her a ss of warm water and handed her a straw.


    She took a sip, feeling a bit better as her mind cleared.


    "They caught him. Your bodyguard was watching from the shadows and didn''t let him escape. His car crashed into a tree, and he passed out. He''s already at the police station being questioned; he''s the same guy who showed up at the construction site."


    Thomas diligently ryed the specifics of the investigation to her.


    With Seraphina safe, he felt a renewed sense of purpose; everything he had done had been worthwhile.


    Seraphina nodded, suddenly recalling something important.


    "It was Wilson who saved me, right?"


    Thomas nodded gravely. "Mr. Rockwell just got off a ne in Eldoria Bay and asked for your address. He wanted to bring you dinner, and I-I...


    He had even sent Seraphina a text to inform her about Wilson.


    However, after the ident, he realized that the message had remained unread.


    Seraphina''s eyes searched around for him, but he was nowhere to be seen.


    "Where is he?"


    Thomas lowered his gaze; his eyes turned crimson.


    "Ms. Cross, your blood type is rare, and there wasn''t a suitable match in the blood bank. We couldn''t make it to Westfolk in time; it was Mr. Rockwell who donated blood for you."Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
