Chapter 327


    If Sasha hadn’t gone to pick up the car for her, ra would have been the one lying injured right


    now.


    Ian’s eyes darkened with a surge of anger. His hands clenched into tight fists.


    Chaseid Sasha on the stretcher, hisrge hand patting her cheek with force. “Sasha, no sleeping,


    come on, wake up.”


    The sting from his pat slowly roused Sasha. Her eyes fluttered open as she weakly cursed, “If the


    crash didn’t kill me, your pping might just do the job.”


    Hearing her voice, Chase suddenly felt a burning sensation around his eyes. He immediately asked,


    “How are you feeling? Is the baby okay?”


    Before Sasha could respond, Ian rushed to her side. “It’s not you who’s pregnant. It is ra. Isn’t


    it?”


    Sasha slowly lifted her eyelids to look at the man before her, whose face was etched with tension.


    She had intended to keep the secret, but the words stuck in her throat.


    Ian was certain his guess was right. He closed his eyes in agony. So, the person ra mentioned in


    her letter, the one she wanted to protect, was their unborn child. She chose to leave silently to


    shield the baby from harm.


    At this realization, he couldn’t help but curse himself. “What a damn fool!”


    The signs of ra’s pregnancy had been so obvious, yet he’d never suspected.

    When she had morning sickness, he thought she had food poisoning.


    When she was overly tired, he assumed her period was approaching.


    When she avoided spicy seafood, he simply thought she had an upset stomach.


    It never crossed his mind that she might be pregnant.


    In less than a minute, Ian had sorted through his thoughts. He immediately took out his phone and


    released a statement.


    Meanwhile...


    ra had switched cars several times under Brodie’s guidance, finally arriving at a private airstrip.


    Once she boarded the ne, she could vanish from this ce, leaving no trace behind.


    She turned to gaze at the winding mountain road in the distance and closed her eyes. She knew Ian


    must be frantically searching for her by now, and he must be in so much pain.


    But wasn’t she the same?


    The tears ra had been holding back finally slid down her cheeks.


    Brodie looked at her with downcast eyes, his voice gentle. “If we don’t take off soon, Ian will track us


    down, and we might not be able to leave.”


    Hearing this, ra wiped away her tears, forcing a smile. “Let’s go.”


    Just as they were about to board the ne, Brodie’s phone rang. Whatever was said on the other


    end, it turned his gentle face into a mask of coldness.


    ra, sensing something was off, immediately asked, “What’s wrong? Is there trouble?”


    After a moment’s hesitation, Brodie said, “Someone tampered with your car.”


    ra’s eyes widened as she realized the implication. “Did Sasha have an ident?”


    “She crashed into a utility pole, still unconscious, and it’s touch and go.”


    ra staggered backward. The revtion hit her hard. Her car had been at the dealership for


    maintenance before the new year. She’d intended for Sasha to retrieve it, so she could use it. That


    very act had now endangered her friend.


    ra’s tearful eyes shed with fierce determination. Her hands balled into fists, her jaw clenched


    tightly.


    Sasha was in this state because of her, and ra couldn’t just selfishly prioritize her own safety and


    leave. She needed to return, to uncover the truth, to be there when Sasha woke up.


    With clear resolve, ra’s shining eyes locked onto Brodie. Her voice wasced with both coldness


    and determination. “I’m going back.”
