Chapter 872
John soon wound down the window and stuck his head out to investigate his surroundings. At the
same time, several frustrated drivers directly got out of their cars and stepped forward to find out more
about the crash. When they passed by John’s car, he could notice the helpless look on their faces and
their irritated sighs.
John was not a busybody himself, but it seemed that Sophia had rubbed off on him; after all, this time
they often hung around each other. Therefore, he opened the car door and stepped out of his car. After
locating the crash, what came into John’s sight was a victim in a school uniform lying down in a pool of
blood. While the traffic was heavily congested, the ambnce needed some time before arriving.
Meanwhile, John remained still, noticing a car right beside the victim as a man, who seemed to be the
driver, was standing next to the vehicle in bafflement. He was seen instinctively exining to the
bystanders that he was driving normally when the boy suddenly appeared in the middle of the road.
Then, he pointed at the surveince camera and vouched for his innocence. “You could take a look at
the surveince footage, and you’ll know that I didn’t cause this.” Nevertheless, no one seemed to be
interested in hearing his defense as they were all desperate for the victim to be taken to the hospital.
At that moment, John stared at the boy lying motionlessly on the ground, so he wasn’t able to see how
injured the victim was. A few momentster, the traffic began to clear shortly before the ambnce
arrived on the scene. Then, the paramedic team quickly approached the victim to examine his injury.
As the victim was ced on the stretcher and carried away, John managed to catch a glimpse of the
boy’s face. Although there were initially bloodstains on it, they were all wiped off by the paramedic team
members. In that instant, John frowned, finding that face familiar as if he had seen that boy somewhere
else. As soon as they entered the ambnce, the paramedic team quickly set off for the hospital,

escorted by the traffic police ahead of them.
Like many other bystanders, John headed back to his car and drove off. The moment he opened the
car door and got in, the face that he had just seen earlier rang a bell. Wait a minute! That boy is
Isabelle’s brother, Dexter! I first saw him back when Isabelle and I were getting engaged. At that time,
he looked very much younger.
At that moment, John paused for a short while before he closed the car door, driving off as soon as the
traffic ahead cleared. When he drove past the crash scene, John took a quick glimpse at the traffic
police officers taking a statement from the driver before he moved on.
Soon, John arrived at the rendezvous and began the discussion with his client. However, it didn’t take
long for both parties toe to an agreement, thanks to the client’s easy-going attitude. Then, John
gave an excuse that he had to leave for something urgent and moved along. Upon hesitating briefly
outside the café, he decided to call Isabelle and told her what he saw. Meanwhile, Isabelle, who had no
idea what she was going to hear next, felt surprised to receive John’s call. “John, what’s up? Is there
anything you want to tell me?”
John clicked his tongue and answered her question, “I saw a car crash at the junction just now, so you
might want to give Dexter a call and see where he is now.”
As soon as John said that, Isabelle quickly caught on to what he was trying to say, so she instinctively
argued back in denial. “Nah, that’s definitely not Dexter. He is in school right now.”
At the same time, John wasn’t quite sure about what he saw since he hadn’t seen Dexter in a
while. Well, I only just caught a glimpse of the boy’s face. Maybe that wasn’t Dexter but his
doppelganger. Then, he responded with an affirmative hum and said, “Okay, good then.” Without
anything much to say, John proceeded to hang up the call.
