Chapter 144: 125, The truth is so unbearable

"Ah!"

Only after Alya Larson stepped on the accelerator did she start to correct the steering wheel, but it was too late at such speed, just in time for the narrow intersection...

Ivy Aretha’s eyes burst open, her pupils dilating to the extreme, watching the truck driver panic and steering the wheel, as well as Alya Larson’s frantic movement to avoid the truck. A bolt of lightning struck in her mind...

A car accident?

Another car accident?

Why use the word "another"?

Once...

Bloody scenes, scattered corpses lying all over the place, the old, the young, men and women... Ivy Aretha saw her hands covered in blood, rummaging through a pile of corpses, all her consciousness focused on four words: Mom and Dad!

Dad? Mom?

Did she remember?

With a loud "bang," the two cars collided without any warning. Ivy Aretha’s thoughts lingered on the words "Mom and Dad," without any continuation!

Half an hour later!

The biggest traffic accident in Andras City was broadcasted live on all major radio stations. When Michael Gordon received the news, he was still in the annual meeting.

Anna heard the fastest news directly from the Department of Public Information, and rushed into the CEO’s conference room without knocking, breaking into Michael Gordon’s conference room for the first time in her life.

With a loud "bang," the door was pushed open...

This loud noise made all the directors of Allure International and the CEOs of the partner companies look at the person at the door, and whispers spread across the empty conference room.

Anna ran from the secretary’s office to the conference room, bursting in with too much force, still gasping for breath, her face flushed with panic.

Michael Gordon was dumbfounded at first, then his face quickly sank, his beautiful eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he instinctively got up from his seat and walked towards the door, while asking, "What happened?"

Listening carefully, there was a slight tremble in Michael Gordon’s tense voice. Anna had been working with him for seven or eight years, and she had always been steady and calm. Panicking and losing her composure for the first time, there was no need to guess that it must be a big deal.

"The news department received a message that a Ferrari sports car heading to the suburbs collided with an overloaded truck at a narrow intersection. It was confirmed that the sports car belonged to Alya Larson of the Legal Department. This afternoon, she was ordered by the minister, Laura Walter, to help Ivy Aretha handle the injury claim contract of Ariana Hunt..."

After saying so much in one breath, Anna gasped for air before continuing.

Upon hearing the sound of his own heart stopping, Michael Gordon’s face turned pale inch by inch, his breathing became heavier and heavier as if he was having difficulty, and his eyes stared at Anna in disbelief, wanting to hear her continue.

"It has been confirmed that the people in the car are Alya Larson and Ivy Aretha!"

When Anna said the last sentence, Michael Gordon’s legs went weak, and he almost fell down, but luckily Anna quickly supported him with her quick reflexes. All the people in the room stared at Michael Gordon’s reaction with their eyes wide open.

This CEO’s reaction was the first time in history but it was just two people from the Legal Department who had a car accident. A group of people belatedly realized that the names of these two people were Alya Larson and Ivy Aretha!

One was a future wife, and the other was a current girlfriend. Whether it was a lover or a wife in the future was not yet certain. The two women had a car accident together, which could truly be a double misfortune. With the loss of two women at once, could Mr. Gordon’s heart bear it?

However, they didn’t even have the courage to comfort him now. Michael Gordon’s temper ahem, everyone knew!

He was always strong enough not to need comfort!

Even so, nobody had the guts to comfort him!

"What’s her condition now?"

Which "her" was naturally referring to Ivy Aretha. Although others didn’t understand, Anna, who had been his secretary for many years, knew his thoughts. But she really didn’t know Ivy Aretha’s current situation.

Michael Gordon staggered out of the conference room, heading towards the elevator while asking, and before Anna could answer, he asked again, "Which hospital?"

"City First Hospital!" While replying, Anna was already making a call to arrange for the driver to wait downstairs. "The car was driven by Alya Larson, and Ivy was in the passenger seat, so..."

That position was obviously the one with the highest mortality rate in car accidents. Michael Gordon’s heart rose again, and it took a while for him to choke a few words out of his tense throat: "Is she still alive?"

He had already prepared for the worst, but when he said this, Michael Gordon’s heart was still twisted, hanging on the edge of a knife, waiting for Anna’s words to determine whether to stab it down.

"There’s no death notice yet!"

Anna’s words were undoubtedly the best news received so far, allowing the strength to return to Michael Gordon’s weakened legs. He quickly made a call: "Adam, get all the best doctors from our hospital to City First Hospital, and contact Oliver Thompson to get that medical genius to me as well. Be at City First Hospital as soon as possible!"

After hanging up, Michael Gordon realized that his own fear had been on the verge of collapse, and a sense of loss engulfed his brain. He had lost before and been so afraid a long time ago, clearly visible fear, endless and spreading!

If not for Anna reminding him that he should go to the hospital now, he would probably have been drowned in fear right here. Knowing Michael Gordon, this was the first time Anna had seen such a disoriented CEO!

By the time they reached downstairs, his private driver was already waiting at the door.

Anna knew him best, driving a sports car with a sports car driver, with the current situation, he would surely race to the hospital.

Michael Gordon got into the car like a wandering soul, and Anna, still worried, finally sat in the passenger seat, joining him. The first thing she said to the driver was: "No matter the consequences, get to City First Hospital as fast as possible!"

The car took off with the command.

As soon as Michael Gordon got into the car, he received a call from Cathy. The woman’s anxious voice contained suppressed low-pitched sadness. Amidst the anxious throaty sound, there was confirmed information: "Mr. Gordon, I just saw a report on the car accident scene in the news. That figure looks like Ivy..."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone before continuing to ask: "Mr. Gordon, is it her or not?"

By the end of the question, Cathy’s tone was tearful.

"Yes!"

Michael Gordon’s grip on the phone tightened, and the cold sweat on his forehead kept breaking out. After a pause, he immediately said, "You go pick up Bianca and bring her home. Stay home and don’t go anywhere. Don’t tell her what happened. Just say I took her mom to a banquet. Don’t let her watch TV, either. You can play games with her or tell her stories. Just don’t let her know about this!"
