Chapter 264


    “I’ll pick one for you too, Mommy.” Juniper took a star-shaped clip and clipped it on Selena’s head. It


    was embedded with diamond dust, and it gleamed brightly under the light. “It’s so pretty!” Juniper


    pped with delight.


    Selena thought it was nice as well, but inexplicably, she thought of Jameson. We don’t even know if


    he’s alive or dead. I don’t have the right to be happy here. “I don’t really like it. Let’s go.” Then,


    Selena took Juniper and left.


    Once they were done shopping around, Selena and Juniper went to the parking lot, ready to go


    home. It was at that moment when Selena’s phone rang, and she held her phone in one hand while


    holding Juniper’s hand in the other. Someone went past them and brushed against Juniper, making


    her new hair clip fall out and tumble a distance away.


    “My hair clip!” Juniper let go of her mother’s hand and went to pick her hair clip, then a car drove


    toward her.


    “Juniper!” Selena yelled, but she could only watch helplessly as the car crashed into Juniper. It


    skidded to a halt, but it was toote. A pool of blood was already starting to form around Juniper,


    and Selena scrambled toward her.


    Pierre saw what happened, so he tried to go to them, but another car crashed into him, making him


    fall.


    She heard another car screeching to a halt, but Selena didn’t have time to look back; Juniper came


    first. “Wake up, Juniper! Look at me!”


    Pierre wanted to get up, thinking that his injury was mild, but the moment he stood up, a stab of


    pain shot up from his leg. The driver quickly came out of the car. “Are you alright, sir?”


    The driver was a woman, and she was shocked about the matter. It was the first time she crashed


    into someone, so she was at a loss. “I-I’ll call you an ambnce.” Then, she took her phone out, her


    hands trembling.


    Pierre pressed down on his injured spot. It’s probably fractured. The pain was stopping him from


    standing up, and all he could do was to press down on it. A whileter, the pain subsided, so he


    struggled to stand up. When he looked at the ident spot, Juniper was nowhere to be found.


    Selena must have taken her to the hospital.


    “Just stay here, sir. You don’t want to hurt yourself again.”

    In response, he held the woman by her shoulder. “Which hospital will someone go to if they have an


    ident here?”


    “Springvale Central Hospital. It’s the nearest one.”


    “What if it’s a child?”


    “Central Hospital’s pediatrics is as good as other child specialist clinics,” she answered.


    “Got it.” Pierre limped away, then he remembered something and took the woman’s car. “Lend me


    your car.”


    “Hey, the ambnce’sing! Can’t you—” Before she could finish speaking though, Pierre had


    driven her car away, and the woman could only watch.


    He drove to Springvale Central Hospital despite his pain and the sweat that was already drenching


    him.


    Meanwhile, Juniper was sent to the emergency room, leaving Selena outside, waiting in panic.


    Then, a doctor came out. “Who’s the patient’s family?”


    “I am!” Selena rushed up to him.


    “The child has suffered excessive blood loss, and she needs a blood transfusion, but her blood type


    is…”


    This was exactly Selena’s worst fear—Juniper’s blood type was special. It was rare to see someone


    with the same Rh negative blood type as her, which made a blood loss event all the more


    devastating.


    “We don’t have her type of blood in our blood bank.”
