Chapter 1112


    Carol felt like she was suffocating. It was unbelievable that somebody had imed that Maja was


    heartless.


    In the past, when the Pennyfeather family treated Maja poorly, she never dreamed of taking revenge.


    When the people of Crystalbrook Valley let her down, all Maja did was cut ties with them.


    Maja may appear cold, but she had the softest heart.


    Ian, the man Maja had shared a bed with for so long, was now saying such hurtful words.


    Carol found it amusing. It seemed like her previous advice to Maja about not falling too deep in a


    rtionship was indeed necessary.


    She took a step back, watching as Ian''s car drove away.


    She took a deep breath, wiped the tears off her face, and rushed towards the scene of the ident.


    The ce was already in chaos, with plenty of police officers around.


    The people jammed behind had no idea how severe the ident was, asking when the road would be


    cleared.


    When Carol reached the zing car, she saw that the fire was still raging. The police officers who


    arrived had cordoned off the area, urging the drivers to clear the way for the fire truck. If not, the fire


    wouldn''t be put out anytime soon, and there was a possibility of an explosion.


    Carol stood there, feeling weak. The sight of the burning car nearly made her faint.


    Her anger and worry made her despise Ian even more for abandoning Maja in such a critical moment.


    It made Maja''s love seem worthless!


    Twenty minutester, the fire truck arrived and extinguished the fire. The police officers moved forward


    to inspect the scene only after making sure there was no danger of an explosion.


    Carol hurriedly followed.


    "There''s no one inside. The driver and the passenger probably got out halfway," one of the officers


    reported.


    She covered her mouth, her eyes filled with relief.


    The officer turned to her and continued, "We''ll check the roadside. They must''ve left some traces."


    Carol was overjoyed, nodding frantically.


    She followed the group of officers in her high heels, inspecting the road back. Eventually, they found


    some bloodstained rocks.


    They looked rubbed off by someone.


    The officers started asking the bystanders if they had seen a woman.


    "I did see a woman. She was pregnant and got out of the car just ahead. She seemed to be injured. A


    kind youngdy took her in her car. They seemed to go to the hospital."


    Carol immediately sent someone to the Greenfield hospital to check. But Maja hadn''t revealed her


    identity during this check-up. She had her palm bandaged at a small clinic and then fell asleep on a


    bench at the clinic.


    In the meantime, the young girl was being nagged by a middle-aged man.


    "Look at you, getting yourself into trouble again. What if those debt collectors suddenly show up? We


    barely managed to escape. If they catch you, they''ll sell you for sure."


    "But she''s pregnant. We can''t just ignore her. What if something happens to her unborn child? Saving a


    life is so meaningful."


    The man sighed as he looked at the girl.


    "Can we leave now? She seems fine."


    "Let''s wait for her family to pick her up."


    "What? The longer we stay in Greenfield, the more dangerous it is for us. The debt collectors are


    ruthless, and they''ve undoubtedly located our phones. It''s only a matter of time before they show up."


    "If theye, you don''t have to worry about me, uncle. Maybe this is my fate."


    The young girl, who looked around sixteen, sat there with a gloomy expression.


    The man sighed again, seemingly resenting Maja''s appearance.


    If it weren''t for Maja, they could''ve left the car and run through the traffic jamst night and left


    Greenfield, never to return.


    He sat there, knowing he couldn''t persuade the girl. She was too kind-hearted.


    At around eight in the morning, Maja woke up.


    She opened her eyes to see a youthful face.


    The girl sighed in relief. "You''re finally awake. That''s great. You fell asleep on the chair after your


    wound was dressedst night."


    Maja sat up, hearing the girl ask, "What''s your family''s phone number? I''ll have theme pick you


    up."


    Maja took her phone and dialed Ian''s number without hesitation.


    He picked up, his voice cold. "Hello?"


    "Ian, it''s me."

    There was a few seconds of silence on the other end before the call was abruptly cut off.


    Maja was about to say something when she heard the "beep, beep, beep" sound from the phone.
