My Blind Wife Wants Divorced

[128] c



The multiple-car accident had befallen Leonel. It made everyone there run instantly to check on Leonel’s condition. Many were worried that the victim and the two truck drivers who unintentionally hit Leonel’s car had died on the spot. This chain accident caused panic on the left side of the road. Many vehicles stopped and slowed due to the severe damage to Leonel’s car.

A cloud of smoke surrounded the black sedan that Leonel was driving.

“Quick, help! Please call the police now!” one of the drivers, who seemed very panicked, ordered.

“Alright, I’ll call the police and an ambulance to come here immediately,” replied one of the people at the scene.

Meanwhile, holding a glass in her office, Chloe suddenly shattered it. She was drinking as usual, and nothing was unusual. However, she suddenly felt uneasy. She sensed something terrible was happening, although she didn’t know why. She even felt her heart pounding rapidly. She didn’t know what news would be brought to her. Chloe tried to take a slow breath and calm her mind. She shouldn’t jump to conclusions. Maybe it was just a passing feeling. She quickly called the office boy to clean up the broken glass she accidentally bumped into earlier.

But not long after that, the flat object on Chloe’s desk started ringing. It shattered her reverie and startled her. She immediately diverted her attention and made sure who was calling her.

“Leonel?” she murmured when she saw her ex-husband’s name calling her. At first, Chloe was reluctant to answer the call. She let the call be ignored. But when Leonel’s number called her again, it annoyed Chloe.

“Why haven’t you given up yet?” she grumbled, disliking it.

Soon after, an unknown number called her again.

“Hello,” Chloe answered when the call connected.

“Hello, good afternoon, is this Leonel’s family?” a man asked from the other end of the phone. It needs to be clarified for Chloe. Why was there a call for Leonel? And… his family?

“I-I see. I’m sorry, who is this? Why isn’t Leonel speaking to me?” Chloe asked in a panicked and nervous voice. Her heart rate was becoming more erratic for some reason.

“I’m sorry, we’re from the Police Department, and it is with a heavy heart that we inform you that Mr. Leonel Grisham has been involved in an accident on the highway. The victim was taken to the nearest hospital for prompt medical treatment. Therefore, I’m requesting a family member to handle this, especially the victim at the hospital,” the man explained.

Those words hit Chloe like a bucket of cold water. She immediately turned pale, her body weakened, and even responding to the man’s account felt extremely difficult.

“Hello?” the man called again.

“I-I understand, sir! I will come there immediately!” Chloe weakly replied. Then the call abruptly ended. Tears streamed down Chloe’s face. She couldn’t believe what she had just heard.

Chloe quickly scrolled through her contacts and searched for Darren’s number. She couldn’t go there alone, so she asked Darren to accompany her to see Leonel at the hospital.

[Darren, we need to go to the hospital now! Leonel had an accident; we must ensure he’s okay!]

Send.

Not long after, her phone rang again with a new message notification.

Ring!

“Oh my, which hospital? Alright, I’ll come and pick you up!”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Chloe hurriedly prepared herself and gathered everything she needed for the hospital. She honestly didn’t expect this situation. Her mind was in chaos. Did Agatha and Robby know about their son’s condition?

Upon arriving at the hospital, Chloe went straight to the receptionist to inquire about a patient named Leonel. She was perturbed, and Darren could sense it. At first, Darren felt puzzled by Chloe’s behavior, but he tried to dismiss it and think positively. Of course, Chloe was concerned since Leonel was her ex-husband. Although Darren admitted that there was a hint of jealousy, this situation was no longer about jealousy. If Chloe wanted, she could have gone alone. Budi, for example, could have accompanied her.

But in reality? Chloe asked Darren to accompany her. It meant that Chloe still considered Darren an essential person in her life.

Shortly after, the receptionist informed them of where Leonel was currently being treated and that the patient was in a coma and unconscious.

“Alright, thank you!”

Chloe immediately ran towards the room mentioned by the receptionist. Her hand was still linked with Darren’s, and she held it tightly as they continued walking in the direction indicated by the receptionist. Her heart continued to pray for Leonel’s well-being.

She never expected this accident to happen to Leonel.

Arriving in front of the room where Leonel was receiving treatment, Chloe burst into tears. They both saw Leonel’s condition inside. Several doctors were busy attending to this concerning patient.

“Stay calm, Chloe.”

“I… I’m scared, Darren.”

Darren could only stay silent. He knew that Chloe’s feelings still belonged to Leonel, even though Darren was by her.

“Leonel will surely be strong.”

Chloe chose not to respond.

“God, give Leonel a chance to stay here. Even if not with me, let him experience true love again. Even if it’s not from me, God.”
