Chapter 307


    "Don''t worry. He is receiving treatment in the intensive care unit."


    Kimberly''s face turned paler when she heard that Benedict was in the intensive care unit. She said,


    "What did you say? Intensive care unit? He..."


    "He has pretty serious external injuries. So, he must receive treatment immediately."


    ''Serious external injuries?'' Kimberly recalled that the truck hit the front part of the car and the


    broken sses sshed on Benedict''s body. Thinking of that, Kimberly''s face turned pale.


    "Is he okay? Is his life in danger? Can I go and see him?" Kimberly asked. After that, she sat up on


    the bed and lifted the quilt, ready to get out of bed.


    The nurse quickly stopped her, "Are you alright? How could you get out of bed so soon? You''d


    better lie down and let us observe your condition for a little longer. Besides, do you know that you


    are pregnant? It''s very dangerous to be in aa for so long."


    Kimberly shook her head and said, "I''m fine."


    The nurse wanted to continue to persuade Kimberly. However, Kimberly had already gotten out of


    bed. She stepped on the floor with her bare feet. She was still wearing that gown, and her hair was


    in a mess. There were a few cuts on her arms and face which were caused by the ss shards.


    The wounds didn''t look serious. The corner of her mouth was cut as well, leaving a blood-red


    wound on her pale lip.


    "Let me treat your wounds first."


    The nurse wanted to help Kimberly. However, Kimberly insisted, "I''m really fine. Can I go and see


    how he is?"


    Both of them were in the ident together. Benedict was seriously injured whereas Kimberly only


    suffered some slight injuries. Kimberly would be badly injured as well if Benedict didn''t ask her to


    bend down in time.


    The doctor examined Kimberly one more time and said to the nurse, "You can take her to see him."


    "Okay. Come with me."


    The nurse took Kimberly out of the ward and turned left. Kimberly followed behind the nurse quietly.


    All of a sudden, she thought of something and asked, "By the way, where are my belongings?"


    "The scene has been controlled by the police. Your belongings should be over there. Don''t worry.


    You can go to the police station to take your belongings when your condition is much more stable."


    Upon hearing that, Kimberly nodded her head at ease.


    "Thank you."

    Soon, they arrived at the ward where Benedict was being treated. Kimberly saw Benedict lying on


    the bed through the ss window. The sight of him lying there covered in blood was shocking. He


    was badly injured.


    Kimberly was so scared that her heartbeat elerated and her breathing rate increased as well.


    "Don''t look at it. There is nothing good to look at when they are treating the wounds. Also, you''re


    pregnant now. You should try to calm yourself down," the nurse said. She could tell that Kimberly


    was breathing faster. Then, she stood in front of Kimberly and blocked her sight, exining, "He


    should be fine now. He had not fainted yet when we arrived. He insisted on asking us to examine


    you first. Both of you are a couple, am I right? He really cares about you. He toughed it out although


    he was badly injured. After that, he fainted when the doctor told him that you were fine."


    Upon hearing that, Kimberly was a little shocked. She wanted to say something, but she couldn''t


    say anything in the end.


    What had she done...


    Kimberly suddenly felt very regretful. If... it wasn''t because of her being so anxious to rush to the


    banquet, Benedict might not have driven so fast. She still had time. However, why did she always


    feel that she didn''t have enough time? They were obviously going to reach very soon... However,


    she still asked him when they were going to arrive.


    Benedict must be distracted because of Kimberly. He would have noticed the truck driving on the


    wrong path if he was not distracted. This tragedy would not have happened if Benedict had noticed


    the truck.


    "He... Will he..."


    The nurse could sense that Kimberly was sad. Therefore, sheforted Kimberly softly, "He''s fine.


    Don''t worry,"


    Kimberly sniffed and said softly, "Can I wait here until he wakes up?"


    "Of course. But he''s receiving treatments for the wounds. You can go in after they finish treating his


    wounds."


    "Okay," Kimberly responded. Then, the nurse supported her to sit down in the chair outside the


    ward. Memories of the truck hitting the car kept on shing across her mind. She thought of Maddox


    when she saw the truck hitting them.


    Would someone see the person who mattered most to them before they die?


    Unfortunately, she had already missed the banquet.


    Thinking of that, Kimberly lowered her head and closed her eyes.


    Maddox would probably hate her very much. She had promised Maddox to go to the banquet.


    However, she did not show up.


    After waiting for a long time, the nurse suddenly ran out and said to her, "Miss, your boyfriend has


    regained his consciousness. He wants to see you."


    Hearing that, Kimberly looked at the nurse immediately. She didn''t care that the nurse


    misunderstood Benedict as her boyfriend anymore. It was a critical situation right then. She got up


    and asked, "He is awake now?"


    "Yes,e with me."


    Kimberly followed the nurse into the ward and saw Benedict, who was wide awake now. Kimberly


    walked towards him. She bit her lower lip and couldn''t help but call him, "Benedict!"


    Benedict was stunned for a moment. After a while, he smiled helplessly and said, "It''s good that


    you''re fine."


    Kimberly bit her lower lip so hard that it almost started bleeding. Benedict was badly injured, but he


    was still thinking of Kimberly.


    Kimberly became more guilty in an instant.


    "I''m fine. But, Benedict, you..."


    "Come over here," Benedict asked Kimberly to sit down at the bedside. He looked at the corner of


    her mouth and saw a dark red wound there. Then, he noticed that there was a wound on her arm,


    he was heartbroken and said, "I''m sorry. I didn''t protect you well."


    Kimberly shook her head and said, "No. You''ve protected me well enough. It''s me who got you into


    trouble. Things like this would not have happened if you didn''t give me a ride!"


    "No, everything is destined to happen. I did what I wanted and I can''t me others. However, you


    are different. You still have a chance."


    "What?" Kimberly was stunned. She looked at Benedict confusingly.


    She didn''t understand what he meant by saying she still had a chance.


    Benedict''s face was dreadfully pale, especially under the light, but even so, he still said to her,


    "Kimberly, the banquet is not over yet. You still have time. I''ll pack up and send you there." After


    saying that, Benedict was about to get out of bed. Seeing that, Kimberly got scared. She quickly got


    up and said, "No! Benedict, you''re seriously injured. You can''t move now."


    The nurse on the side was also frightened. She said immediately, "Yes! Sir, you are quite seriously


    injured. You can''t get out of bed now. You have to rest for two days!"


    "I''m fine," Benedict said. Then, he got up stubbornly and wiped the blood on the corner of his


    mouth. He added, "It''s just some superficial injuries. I can tough it out."
