Chapter 722 The Accident
Chapter 722 The Accident
Inside the black Lincoln, Corbin sat in the driver's seat with Maurice in the passenger seat.
Gerald and Sean sat in the back seat.
The farce in the Moran Group building ended with Sean winning.
By the time Sean felt he had vented his anger enough, Gerald was already beaten black and blue.
In the end, Maurice took both of them to the car.
Maurice looked back and asked coldly, "What's the address?"
"Filialness Sanatorium,"
Sean immediately shouted.
Corbin turned on the GPS and drove to the sanatorium.
In the back seat, Gerald covered his bruised and swollen face, staring at Sean with red eyes.He got so worked up that he pointed at Sean's nose and cursed, "Sean, you traitor! I treated you well.If not for me, you are nothing.How dare you betray me! Do you still have any conscience?"
But Sean didn't waver at all.He retorted without hesitation, "Bah! What a pack of lies! Save your breath, Gerald."
As a result, Sean and Gerald fought fiercely again.
Maurice didn't mind them.He was so worried about Earle that he didn't even want to talk to them.
When Corbin heard Gerald's words, he also couldn't help satirizing, "Gerald, don't argue anymore.If you really treated Sean well, how could he betray you at this critical moment?"
Actually, his life trajectory was similar to Sean's.It was just that their lives were totally different.
Corbin couldn't help recalling the days when he worked as Maurice's assistant these years.
Although Maurice was a sharp-tongued man, he felt Maurice's kindness to him.
So it was not surprising that he was loyal to Maurice.
Even if Gerald was the one who won today, he would never betray Maurice.
With this thought, Corbin couldn't help but secretly glanced at Maurice beside him.
Maurice was leaning against the back of the seat with his eyes closed.His face was a little pale, and there were obvious dark circles under his eyes.
Stubble had already grown on his chin too.
It was hard to imagine that he was an energetic and high-spirited man before.
Ever since Eliana had an accident at the wedding, Maurice had been looking for her.He hadn't slept for several days now.
Aside from that, he had to find a way to deal with Gerald too.So he was exhausted and in a very bad state.
Now that Gerald was in his hands, he must be able to find Earle and Nancy soon.So Maurice could finally relax even a little.
Corbin secretly prayed for Maurice in his heart.
He really hoped that all these bad things would end as soon as possible and Maurice could find Eliana.
Otherwise, Maurice would not be able to hold on.
At this time, the traffic light turned red, so the car stopped at an intersection.
There was pin-drop silence in the car.
Looking at the familiar scenery outside the window, Gerald broke out in a cold sweat and became more and more flustered.
They were getting closer and closer to the sanatorium where he hid Earle.
If Maurice found Earle, he would be doomed.
Gerald turned his head and looked at Maurice.
It was only then that he found Maurice leaning against the seat with his eyes closed.
He seemed to be sleeping.
No! He couldn't admit defeat just like that.
At the thought that Maurice was asleep, why didn't he try to fight back? A hint of cruelty flashed through Gerald's eyes as he made the decision in an instant.
Then the red light turned green.
The moment Corbin started the car, Gerald suddenly pounced at him crazily.
Corbin's attention was all on the road, so he didn't notice what Gerald was doing.
Gerald grabbed his neck and tightly strangled it.
"Gerald...What are you doing? Are you crazy?"
Corbin struggled hard, coughing and cursing.
Since he was strangled by Gerald, he couldn't hold the steering wheel anymore, and the car went out of control.
Maurice was suddenly awakened.
When he opened his eyes and saw this scene, he immediately turned to help Corbin.
But it seemed that Gerald had already lost his mind.
He held on to Corbin tightly and refused to let go.
While they were entangled, the car rushed forward.
And since it was out of control, it crashed into the car in front of them.
Immediately afterwards, the car ran off the road. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
And with a loud bang, it finally hit a tree on the roadside.
The cars around them were all affected.
They were in a mess, crashing into each other one after another.
The car window instantly shattered, and a huge impact hit the people in the car.
After the collision, Corbin, in the driver's seat, was the most severely injured.
His head lay on the steering wheel, and his face was covered with blood.
Maurice was also injured, and he immediately fainted.
Among them, only Gerald stayed awake.
He struggled to open the door, wanting to escape.
But the next moment, someone grabbed him by the hand.
"Don't go away..."
Corbin pulled Gerald back with all his remaining strength.
"Let go of me," Gerald said fiercely, shaking off his hand.
"I haven't lost yet.You just wait and see.I'll come back to get even with you."
After saying this, Gerald got out of the car, and stumbled to the middle of the road.
