Finnick walked out into the streets and stared at the people coming and going. He was at a loss.
Grandpa just died. He was shot to death!
The man who had raised him and pampered him all his life had just passed away.
As he thought about it, he could not help the tears that fell from his eyes.
Finnick did not know what he had to do then or what would happen to himself.
He felt lost.
After squatting on a flight of stairs for a while, he ran back to his car. Right, Grandpa. I should visit him now. He always complains that I don't visit him, so he must be trying to trick me into going home. Many elderly lie to their children like this, so Grandpa must be doing the same thing.
As Finnick continued to contemplate the situation, he accelerated in a hurry to get back.
However, the roads were currently congested. As quickly as possible, Finnick reversed his car before speeding forward again.
When the drivers around him saw what he was doing, they realized what he intended to do. Fearful that he would damage their precious cars, the drivers moved to give way to him.
Soon, a path had been freed up. Ignoring the traffic lights, Finnick continued to speed forward.
All he cared about at that moment was going home to visit Samuel. He knew Samuel would be waiting for him. Yes, he will be.
As he thought of that, Finnick continued to accelerate, reaching speeds he had never dared to drive at before. However, he continued and was not bothered with the traffic, as he was anxious to see his grandfather.
All along the way, he honked his car horn at the other drivers around him. They all moved out of the way in fear for their cars.
Many traffic police officers soon chased Finnick's car as he had run many red lights and was also speeding excessively.
However, as they were traffic police officers, they had to control their own speed.
Naturally, they fell far behind Finnick's car.
Due to his excessive speeding, the three-hour journey was eventually completed in only one and a half.
