At that moment, I couldn't be more stunned!
Asl wanted to reach out to pull her, I only managed to grasp the edge of her skirt. Soon, because of her weight, her skirt slipped from my hand!
I saw her lying on the ground.
And the one driving black Jeep had no intention of stopping the car. I turned around to have a look at it in a hurry, only to realize that the tablet of the Jeep had been covered.
There wouldn't be such a coincidence in the world.
If there was, it surely was conspiracy!
Before I encountered this matter, many matters in the past had confirmed this point.
I saw Kelsi lying there with her eyes closed. We were in a relatively remote place. And there was no one around.
However, as soon as something happened, a few passers-by immediately gathered around her.
I hesitated for a moment and called 911 in the end.
After that, I was in a mess in my mind. Without deliberation, I directly called Patrick.
Soon, 911 arrived. And I followed them to the hospital.
The staff of the hospital naturally sent Kelsi to the Holy Spirit Hospital.
After all, people from the upper class in City Y all thought highly of it.
Because of what happened previously, I got used to wearing a mask and sunglasses outside.
Wearing sunglasses, I followed the doctor into the emergency room and saw that Kelsi was directly pulled into it.
A nurse asked me to pay bill for Kelsi. And I did as she said.
After everything was done, I sat alone in the corridor, feeling helpless.
I didn't want to accomplish anything. I was telling the truth. And I just wanted to be a good designer, do my job well, and be with Glenn until he grew up.
As for the rest, I indeed didn't want them.
But why did others get me involved in such a chao over and over again?
What on earth did I do wrong?
What Shelton had exposed last time quieted down a little. And now this thing happened again. I indeed didn't know what would happen to me next.
"Janetta." I heard Patrick's voice ringing above my head.
Without ever looking up, I said simply, "I was set up by her. And the plate of the car hitting her was covered. She surely is framing me."
As I spoke, I couldn't be more furious in my heart.
"Why did Kelsi target me?"
"Can't she just leave me alone?"
"I know." Patrick stretched out his hand to me, saying, "I believe in you. Let's go first. The staff of the hospital has informed the Kelsi family. They will be here soon."
I knew that if the Kelsi family saw me now, they surely wouldn't listen to my explanation.
I nodded and followed Patrick into the car obediently.
After getting into the car, I got emotionally broke down in the end. Hanging my head, I couldn't help shedding tears repeatedly.
Patrick leaned over and held me in his arms, "If you want to cry, go ahead."
I hugged Patrick and burst into tears, "Why? Why are they all coming at me? I indeed didn't do anything."
After finishing my words, I realized something.
In fact, I was wrong about one thing.
My fault was that I was entangled with Patrick.
Patrick patted my back, "It's my fault. Right from the beginning, I shouldn't have compromised to them."
"Let's split up." I said, "Could it be that all of them would let me go once we were separated?"
I had had enough!
"No." Patrick decisively refused, "Do your own things well. And leave everything to me. I will handle them well. You only have to be yourself at ease."
I didn't say anything.
