Amanda Fuller looked at Aurelia's anxious expression, wanting to ask sothing, opened her mouth but didn't say anything, just urged the driver to go faster.
The car quickly stopped at the central hospital.
Before the car had steadied, Aurelia hurriedly got out and rushed into the hospital.
"What's going on? How is my dad?"
Aurelia walked into the ward, her anxious voice asking first, and when she saw Balthazar Shaw sitting on the bed, she sighed in relief.
She walked over: "Dad, what happened? How did you end up in a car accident?"
Balthazar Shaw didn't expect Aurelia to co here, seeing her he was stunned for a mont, before snapping back in her concerned greetings.
Rarely has his daughter shown such concern for him, Balthazar Shaw felt a surge of emotion.
But he still calmly replied, "It's just a minor injury, Xiao Zhang insisted on bringing here for a check-up, nothing serious, you don't need to worry."
His face was still pale; even if uninjured, he was still quite shocked.
How could it be nothing?
"Xiao Zhang, what happened?" Aurelia turned to ask Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang was Balthazar Shaw's personal driver, picking him up every morning to go to the company.
Xiao Zhang lowered his head guiltily and said, "When passing an outside intersection, the brakes suddenly malfunctioned, I... I rember checking them last night, when I picked up Mr. Shaw this morning everything was fine, but suddenly they just... "
Brake failure.
Suddenly, Aurelia's mind flashed back to what Eleanor Spencer had once said...
"Do you think your dad just died like that? Really think it was brake failure that caused the accident?"
Brake failure... why is it brake failure again? In her previous life, dad died because of this. After coming back, everything has clearly changed, why is this happening again?
Is the future truly unchangeable?
Brake failure may just be a small matter, or it could be just the beginning.
Perhaps the future she thought she changed is actually on another track, leading to the sa endpoint?
"Miss, what's wrong? Why did your face suddenly beco so pale?" Xiao Zhang asked concernedly.
"Xiao Zhang, for a period of ti recently, when picking up my dad, whether going to the company or returning from the company, before getting in the car, make sure you check it thoroughly, understand?" Aurelia instructed solemnly.
Seeing Aurelia so tense, Balthazar Shaw spoke to ease her worries: "It's just a small accident, maybe sothing went wrong with the car. Xiao Zhang, take the car for a check-up later. Aurelia, don't be too anxious, dad's fine, the doctors checked, dad's in good health."
The daughter was finally close to him, Balthazar Shaw was happy, but he didn't want his daughter to worry about him.
He wanted to be the mountain his daughter could rely on, not a burden. Right now, he could still work and earn money; he couldn't let himself beco his daughter's burden before he's old.
Aurelia wasn't aware of Balthazar Shaw's thoughts, but as long as there's the possibility, she would eliminate it entirely.
Her eyes deepened, staring at Balthazar Shaw, she said sternly: "Not just Xiao Zhang, but you as well, before getting in the car make sure soone checks it, and during this period, apart from the cars Xiao Zhang drives, don't casually get into other cars."
"Aurelia, dad's fine, you don't need to worry so much about dad..."
"Promise !" Aurelia interrupted him.
"Balthazar Shaw, from childhood, I've never asked anything of you, just this one request."
Balthazar Shaw froze for a second, then nodded, "Dad understands, apart from the cars Xiao Zhang drives, dad won't get in other cars, is that okay?"
