Chapter 349 - An Accident

A few minutes after the conversation, Edward frowned. Several black cars were seen following him from behind.

'Ah, maybe it's just my feeling,' Edward thought trying to think positively.

However, as time went on, it became clearer. Especially when he turns at a crossroads, that cars do the same.

"What is it?" asked Byanca when she saw the frown on Edward's forehead.

The man didn't answer, his eyes were fixed on his car's rearview mirror, he didn't seem to have heard Byanca's words.

"Hey, what's wrong? Why are you ignoring me?" Byanca asked again, raising her voice a little.

Edward reflexively turned to her, "Ah yes, what's wrong dear? Did you say something?" Edward replied.

"Oh nothing, forget it," said Byanca irritably, turning her gaze the other way.

Edward took a deep breath, "Some people are following us," he said.

Hearing that, Byanca immediately looked in the car's rearview mirror and Several black cars entered her view.

"Who are they?"

"I don't know, honey," Edward replied.

"Have they been following us since earlier?"

Edward nodded in response.

Byanca panicked, the worry that had filled her a moment ago now terrorized her again.

"So What are we going to do next, Edward?" asked Byanca.

"I'm scared," she added.

"What if Devan..."

Edward turned to the woman, "Honey, calm down. As long as you are with me, nothing can hurt you," he said interrupting Byanca's words.

"Fasten your seatbelt, honey. And hold on tight."

Right after saying that, he stepped on the gas and drove at an above-average speed. Overtaking other drivers, trying to escape from the cars that had been following him since earlier.

But sadly, those black cars do the same thing. They drove at high speed, trying to catch up to Edward's car.

"Where are we going, Edward?" asked Byanca when she saw the man turn the car around, turn around and go fast again.

"We have to run away from the first, honey. After that, we will continue our journey to my family's residence," Edward replied.

Hearing that, Byanca didn't respond anymore and just stayed where she was, occasionally looking back.

On the other hand, Marlin is in one of the cars chasing Mr. Edward's car, the man mobilizes several people and gives directions to them to change the lane they are using.

Marlin asked them to enter several streets so that they could surround Edward's car at the crossroads further ahead.

In this case, he only plays a role in directing his men. He would not intervene directly when Mr. Edward's car was stopped.

There was only one reason, he didn't want Mr. Edward to see him. He didn't want Mr. Edward to know that behind this incident was an order from his younger brother.

"Scatter," Marlin ordered as he spoke into the earphones. He knew that by this time, Mr. Edward had realized that some people were following him.

"I'm sorry, sir," Marlin mumbled with a deep breath.

At first glance, the action of a car chase occurred on the highway of the city of Sydney. Several vehicles seemed to stop from afar when they saw their arrival, some motorists also seemed to have deliberately pulled over and given them access.

They drove fast, ran through red lights, and did not pay attention to traffic signs and rules. Even some dangerous events almost happened, such as collisions.

"This is a good opportunity to separate Miss Byanca from Mr. Edward," Marlin muttered still trying to catch up.

While on the other hand, Edward didn't give up one bit. He continued to drive without thinking of anything but running away from that strangers.

"Edward, take a look. Only two cars are chasing us, where are the other cars?" muttered Byanca as she looked back.

"Is that true?" he looked in the rearview mirror to confirm Byanca's words. Edward didn't notice that a car was speeding from the opposite direction.

"EDWARD!!" shouted Byanca.

BRRUUKKK...

A loud collision occurred, the two cars collided with each other, several other drivers were shocked and immediately hit the brakes suddenly, some of them also hit the two cars, including Marlin who was right behind Edward's car, causing Edward's car to be thrown and dragged up to several meters away.

A few seconds, a series of accidents occurred. Instantly the activity on the highway stopped completely, everyone focused and ran towards the accident site.

Because Edward was driving at high speed, his car rolled several times and hit the pavement again so hard, even some pedestrians were almost hit.

Edward's car stopped, smoke billowing from the front and back of the car.

Soon the highway became chaotic, transportation access stopped. Many people took to the streets and saw the condition of the victim.

After a while, Marlin looked around him. His head hurts from hitting the steering wheel, his shoulder and neck ached. With difficulty, he contacted his men to immediately come to the scene.

After that, he got out of the car and was immediately greeted by several people.

Seeing the condition of Edward's car, Marlin's feelings went off. The man fell to his knees on the asphalt with a blank stare. His hands were shaking.

Mr. Edward's car was dented and badly damaged.

A few minutes later, help arrived. The ambulance and several firefighters happened to have returned to their duties.

It's raining again, drenching the city of Sydney. Several people to pull over and find shelter.

But it did not apply to Marlin, the man rose from his position and approached Edward's car with slow steps.

Heavy rain did not hinder the health workers and firefighters who tried to open that car.

Until a few moments later, Mr. Edward and Byanca were successfully evacuated, they and several other victims were taken to the nearest hospital.

Marlin was silent and didn't react, as if he was like an idiot seeing what was happening in front of him.

Mr. Edward and Miss Byanca's bodies were covered in blood, also their head was bleeding.

Blood pooled everywhere.

Suddenly Marlin's cell phone rang. He immediately took his cell phone from his trouser pocket, Mr. Edrick's name was visible on his cellphone screen. His hands were still shaking, not from the cold rain, but the sudden big event.

All of this was beyond his expectations.

"Sir, you'd better come with us to the hospital. Your head is bleeding too."

Reflexively Marlin turned to the source of the sound and found a firefighter.
