Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2478

Seeing that Shannon was fine, my heart, which had been suspended in the air, finally eased back down.

The traffic police arrived after a while to disperse the onlookers. They put down a few roadblocks and came to Shannon to inquire about the incident.

“You are…”

“Collins.”

The traffic police heeded her response and took out a notebook. “Miss Collins, can you tell me what happened?”

Shannon leaned against me. She gritted her teeth as she began recalling. “I remember... starting my car and turning into Spring Road when I suddenly saw a car speeding up toward me from the right the moment I reached the center. I thought they were trying to pass, so I quickly moved out of the way. But they were so fast that I was pushed to the side.”

The traffic police nodded and confirmed with his companion nothing was missing while Shannon looked at her scratched-up car with a complicated gaze.

The sunken side of the car was enough for me to imagine just how horrifying that moment was.

If it was not for Shannon's quick reflexes, she would have…

I did not dare think about it anymore and looked at the traffic police. “We can provide a dash cam if needed.”

“Right!” Shannon's eyes lit up as she smacked a fist into the palm of her other hand. She almost lost her footing and tugged at her wound before letting out a breath of relief.

I glanced at her sullenly.

The traffic police went to collect evidence. Since we could not tamper with the scene, I helped Shannon take a seat by the side of the road. I brought a bottle of mineral water from a passerby and treated the bruise on her ankle.

“Ouch…”

Shannon called out exaggeratedly the moment the cool water hit her wound. “Ah, ow… Wanda, oh Wanda. Be gentle, would you? I’m not one who enjoys pain.”

She was probably fine seeing how she could still mess around.
