Great, Bright Sampton thought, his sister had left this suffocating house; she had another ho.
After hanging up the phone, Jas Black instructed a couple of things to soone and then turned and left. After picking up the car key, Jas thought for a mont and then called a driver over; instead, he sat directly in the car backseat.
After the car left the guard team, Jas Black called Jane Sampson.
This call went unanswered for half an hour, and eventually, the mobile phone indicated it was turned off.
Jas Black’s heart gradually tightened, and his eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"Boss, what’s wrong?" The young team mber driving noticed the change in Jas Black’s expression and asked with concern, "Are you having trouble reaching our sister-in-law by phone?"
This wasn’t hard to guess since the place Jas Black headed to after leaving the guard team was ho.
The young team mber speculated, "Could it be that sister-in-law is in a noisy place outside and didn’t hear? Why don’t you wait a bit and try calling again?"
Jas Black responded with an ’hmm’, thinking to himself that, by the ti she left the Sampton Family, she should not have yet reached ho, likely driving and not noticing her phone ringing.
But Jas Black was more worried that driving in the emotional state she was in when leaving the Sampton Family might cause problems.
Fifteen minutes later, the car reached a traffic light intersection. The young team mber checked the road conditions and then turned on the car’s radio to listen to the current city district traffic status. Unfortunately, they caught the radio host reporting a car accident on Bright Street.
They said a female driver had mistaken the accelerator for the brake and rear-ended several cars. The accident resulted in several casualties, and the car’s airbags deployed, leaving the female driver unconscious and sent to the hospital.
Coincidentally, Bright Street was the necessary route Jane Sampson took from the Sampton Family to go ho.
Not only was Jas Black shocked, but even the young team mber’s heart sank, wondering, could it be that unlucky that our sister-in-law is the female driver?
Jas Black’s forehead wrinkled into a cross as he took out his mobile phone again, this ti dialing the ho landline.
Listening to the incessant beeping in the phone, Jas Black adjusted his posture and was about to hang up when the call finally connected, and a muffled voice suddenly ca through, answering with a ’hello’.
"Hello, who are you?" The voice that spoke was a bit hoarse, clearly from having cried.
Nowadays, everyone has a mobile phone, so landlines have almost beco furniture in the house, and basically, no one uses them. Hence, when Jane Sampson heard the ho landline ringing, she was so distracted that she assud it was an advertisent call from the broadband company and didn’t want to answer.
But hearing the phone ring for a long ti without stopping, she finally got up from the sofa and answered the call.
And this one sentence gave Jas Black almost a sigh of relief.
She was okay, that was good.
The driver who mistook the accelerator for the brake wasn’t her.
"It’s ." Jas Black cald his emotions and gently asked, "I called your mobile, at first there was no answer, and then it was turned off. Did you just get ho?"
"Jas?" Jane Sampson was slightly surprised. Hearing Jas Black say this, she realized she hadn’t touched her mobile phone since she got ho.
"I’ve been ho for a few minutes. I didn’t charge my mobile phone when I went out, so it might have run out of power and shut down automatically. I just got ho and haven’t had a chance to look at my phone." Jane Sampson said, "Wait for a mont; I’ll get my phone from my purse."
