Sydney thought, 'A car accident? How did that even happen?'
Sydney was in disbelief.
She had only just texted Julien no more than ten minutes ago. And he had told her he was on the way home.
And now, she suddenly heard that he had been in a car accident!
She thought, 'How the hell am I supposed to cope with that?'
She bit hard on her lower lip as her eyes turned red with tears. She felt a tightness in her chest, and she was heartbroken.
She knew how terrifying a car accident could be.
It could result either in minor injuries or end up being fatal.
Julien had already been through an accident once. Although he survived that one, could he survive this time?
Sydney had only just gotten him back. She wondered if she would lose him again.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and her breathing grew ragged once more.
On the other end of the phone, Zach had heard her question and cast Julien a brief look before saying, "Don't worry, Ms. Raines. He's fine for now, though he is still unconscious. I'm on my way to take Mr. Flint to the hospital."
"Is he really okay?" Sydney was worried as her nails sunk into the fabric of the armrest.
It was a car accident, after all.
Zach nodded vigorously. "Mr. Flint will be just fine. I was the driver. And if I am okay, Mr. Flint will pull through as well. More importantly, the accident wasn't a serious one. We merely ran into the flower bed on the sidewalk."
Upon hearing this, Sydney was relieved and believed his words.
Indeed, there were plenty of accident cases where the first to die of grievous injuries were the driver and the passenger in front. However, those in the backseat had a higher chance of survival.
If Zach was fine, Julien would pull through as well.
Thinking about this, Sydney let out a sigh of relief and was relieved. Her heart stopped twitching.
But why would Julien blackout?
Given his physical condition, he would not have passed out.
Zach had said that they ran into the flower bed on the roadside.
The impact on Zach was more harmful than that on Julien. However, if Zach was fine, it didn't make sense that Julien had fainted after the accident.
Narrowing her eyes, she was deep in thought for a few seconds. Then she gave up as she couldn't figure out an explanation for this. She didn't want to dwell on it, either.
What mattered now was that she could get to the hospital to see Julien.
With that in mind, she squeezed her hand and forced herself to stay calm. Then she stood up again. Bracing through the pain, she headed into her room. "Zach, which hospital are you heading toward? I'll be right over."
"The hospital where Dr. James works," said Zach.
It turned out Julien was going to be sent to the Prima Hospital.
Nodding, Sydney said, "Got it. I'll be on my way. Take good care of Julien. Call me if anything else happens."
"I will, Ms. Raines. Don't worry," said Zach.
Sydney forced out a smile and hung up the call. Then she hurried to put on a change of clothes and rushed out to the Prima Hospital.
Along the way, she clenched the steering wheel so tightly that her hands trembled, making the car swerve out of the lane every once in a while. Her driving was so dangerous that the other drivers even rolled down their windows to curse her as they overtook her.
But this was the least of her concerns. She bit her bottom lip as she stared at the road in front of her with red eyes. At the moment, all she could think about was Julien's safety.
