Flash Marriage With Mr. Sheffield: Go Away, Cheap Man!-Chapter 185: Car Accident

The ride-share the roommates ordered arrived, and a few girls left one after another.

Clara Sterling had called for a driver to pick her up in advance.

After seeing the roommates off, Clara got into the car as well.

The sorrow of parting hadn’t faded, and Clara’s mind was filled with countless thoughts.

She leaned against the back seat, lost in thought.

The accident happened so suddenly.

A black car from the rear left slammed into the back of the Maybach.

A loud "Bang——" pierced through the sky.

The black Maybach was violently flipped over.

After crashing into the Maybach Clara was in, the offending car lost control and careened wildly across the road, colliding with three other passing cars.

Bang Bang Bang——

The loud noise of cars colliding continued without stopping.

In an instant, the road was in chaos, with the screams of bystanders and the sounds of the crash echoing continuously.

Scattered across the road were car parts knocked off by the collision.

The offending black car, after a chain of collisions, crashed into a tree by the roadside, wrecking the entire car, with the front severely caved in.

The driver was already unconscious, not knowing if they were merely comatose or dead on the spot.

Passersby and the owners of the hit vehicles dialed 120 and 110.

The black Maybach Clara was in ended up sideways on the road, severely damaged, the rear crumpled inward, the entire body deformed.

When emergency personnel rescued Clara from the car, she was already unconscious, blood pouring from a wound on her forehead, staining half her face red.

...

Sheffield Group headquarters meeting room.

Silas Sheffield picked up the water cup next to him and took a sip. As he went to put it back on the table, his hand slipped, and the cup suddenly fell to the ground.

"Bang," went the sound

The glass cup shattered into pieces, the tea spilling everywhere.

"President Sheffield, are you okay?" Zachary Lynch hurriedly stepped forward to inquire, quickly pulling out tissues to wipe the tea off Silas Sheffield’s hands and clothes.

Silas paused for a moment, lowering his gaze to the glass shards and tea stains on the ground. His left eyelid twitched violently, and his heart inexplicably started to panic.

He was enveloped by a feeling of inexplicable unease.

Lindsay Carver, the assistant, quickly cleaned up the glass shards and tea stains from the ground.

"President Sheffield, should the meeting continue?" Zachary noticed Silas was in bad shape and asked.

Silas snapped back to reality, about to speak, when his phone suddenly vibrated.

The caller ID showed it was an unknown number.

At that moment, the unease in Silas’s heart reached its peak.

He answered the call.

"Hello, is this Mr. Sheffield? This is City Central Hospital..."

The executives in the meeting room only saw the usually calm and collected CEO suddenly turn pale, springing up from his seat and frantically sweeping important documents off the table onto the floor.

"President Sheffield, what happened?" Zachary asked.

But Silas didn’t respond, almost running out of the meeting room.

When he left, the meeting room fell silent for a moment.

Then, the executives began to quietly discuss among themselves.

"What’s wrong with President Sheffield? It’s the first time seeing him so anxious."

"Something serious must have happened. Did you see how pale he turned just now? Do you think it’s..."

"Even when a billion-dollar project had issues, the CEO didn’t panic like this. This time, it must be something major."

"Could something have happened to his family? Just now, it seemed like he was about to cry..."

"Shh, don’t say such things."

Zachary dropped a "Meeting adjourned" and hurriedly followed after him.

Seeing the CEO in this state, he couldn’t let him go out alone.

Silas hurriedly left, and Zachary ran out, seeing him waiting for the elevator.

Fortunately, he caught up.

Zachary ran over to wait for the elevator with him, "CEO, where are you going? I’ll drive, you’re not in good shape right now."

"City Central Hospital." Silas’s voice was trembling.

Zachary paused for a moment, turning his head to observe Silas’s expression.

The man’s face was drained of color, and the eyes beneath his gold-rimmed glasses were slightly red, with a layer of mist.

Zachary’s heart sank.

!!!

The CEO was...

About to cry?

What exactly happened to make the always calm and composed CEO so distraught?

Zachary slowly furrowed his brows, wondering... was it related to his wife?

Wisely, Zachary didn’t ask any more questions.

The elevator soon arrived. As the doors opened, Silas hastily stepped in, pressing the button for the basement level.

Zachary followed closely behind.

When the elevator reached the basement parking lot, Zachary wasted no time, sprinting to open the door of the nearest black Porsche.

After Silas got into the car, Zachary floored the gas pedal, quickly driving out of the parking lot.

On the road, Zachary drove fast, almost pushing the speed limit.

At a red light, Zachary glanced at Silas through the rearview mirror.

Silas’s brow was tightly knit, his eyes filled with anxiousness, his face still devoid of any color.

Moved by Silas’s emotions, Zachary also grew uneasy.

Luckily, it wasn’t rush hour, so the road wasn’t too congested.

Ten minutes later, the car finally reached City Central Hospital.

The car hadn’t even come to a full stop before Silas impatiently opened the door and got out. Zachary’s heart skipped a beat, fearing the CEO might fall when getting out.

His concern was not uncalled for.

Just as he thought about it, he saw Silas stumble slightly when getting out, almost falling.

Zachary hurriedly got out of the car, intending to support Silas, but saw him running into the hospital at lightning speed.

Zachary quickly followed.

With his long legs, Silas ran too fast; Zachary, following behind, almost lost him.

At the hospital, Zachary finally understood what happened.

"President Sheffield." The director personally greeted him in the hospital lobby.

"How is my wife now?" Silas’s tone was urgent, his face full of tension and worry.

"Mrs. Sheffield is currently being rescued. I just received the news and came from home, so I’m not very clear on the specifics..."

Upon hearing this, Silas’s breath caught.

The television in the hospital lobby was broadcasting news reports about this car accident.

"Around 8:15 local time, a serious traffic accident occurred on Cypress Road. Surveillance footage shows that the accident was caused by a black car losing control..."

Connecting the dots with the TV news, Zachary finally understood what had happened.

The CEO’s wife got into a car accident.

No wonder the CEO was so anxious.

Looking at the horrifying car accident scene on the TV behind the reporter, Silas’s face grew even paler.

The accident scene was already cordoned off.

The camera panned to the roadside, capturing the wrecked black vehicle involved in the accident.

The reporter said, "It’s confirmed; the owner of the offending vehicle died on the spot, with no vital signs..."

Upon hearing these words, Silas’s legs buckled, and he nearly collapsed.

The owner of the offending vehicle died on the spot.

What about Clara...

Silas didn’t even dare to think.

He closed his eyes in despair.
