As the shout of Chloe Grant’s name came from behind her, what followed was the sound of someone maliciously whistling.
Chloe Grant didn’t even turn her head, she just ignored it and continued walking forward.
She didn’t know what was going on with these people.
Ever since Lily Grant came that day, those strange glances and whispers hadn’t stopped.
At first, Chloe Grant thought it was because of the fuss Lily Grant had caused, but the more she thought about it, the more something seemed off.
There were always boys running over and saying, "Your figure is really great!"
Those compliments were accompanied by teasing and sneering.
If it were truly because Chloe Grant had slimmed down and they came to compliment her, it shouldn’t be in such a tone and with such an attitude.
She felt there was something going on, but Chloe Grant couldn’t figure it out.
When she reached the door, Chloe Grant shook her head, casting away those thoughts, not wanting to think more about it.
Now she was going back to the old house.
When Isabella Gray was busy, Chloe Grant’s first reaction was that her parents had already given a response, preparing to let her go abroad.
It had been several days since she talked to her parents about going abroad, and they still hadn’t given her any news.
This was something happy...
Although, she couldn’t feel happy right now.
Chloe Grant left the school, walked through several streets, and finally stopped at an intersection.
She needed to cross the road to take a taxi on the other side.
When the light turned green, Chloe Grant stepped forward to walk across.
Being particularly trusting of the green light, she didn’t look at the passing vehicles, nor did she notice... the car that was supposed to stop according to the rules suddenly inexplicably sped up, rushing directly towards Chloe Grant...!
By the time Chloe Grant reacted, she turned around, her eyes catching directly the car’s hazard lights!
Although it was just after three in the afternoon, because it was cloudy, the sky was quite dark, and the hazard lights shone directly on Chloe Grant’s face, making her eyes uncomfortable. Reflexively, she raised her hand to shield her eyes... while that car was continuously speeding up towards her body!
Like a tiger in the forest chasing its prey, ready to pounce and devour the little rabbit in one bite!
People around shouted, but Chloe Grant’s mind was blank at that moment!
The car’s speed as it rushed in was incredibly fast, even the wind it carried was fierce!
Chloe Grant widened her eyes, watching helplessly as the car was about to roll over her body... and! At that critical moment, she suddenly felt a weight around her waist, and the next moment she was lifted, flipping through the air in an arc, then landing heavily on the ground!
It didn’t hurt, as if something cushioned her, but Chloe Grant hadn’t yet processed what was happening.
Meanwhile, the car that was charging towards Chloe Grant suddenly came to a halt.
The driver’s door opened, revealing a man wearing sunglasses and a mask, glancing in Chloe Grant’s direction before driving away.
Chloe Grant watched as the driver left, noticing a red mark on the driver’s pinky finger when he raised his hand...
Before she could see clearly, the driver had already driven away, and Chloe Grant was being helped up by someone.
A familiar voice rang in Chloe Grant’s ear.
Chloe Grant still in a daze, hadn’t recovered from the recent fright.
Previously, whenever she watched a car accident on TV, Chloe Grant would always criticize the scenes where the car was approaching with ample time, yet the protagonist wouldn’t run but just stood there in a daze.
Only when it actually happened to her did Chloe Grant truly experience it, it’s not about not wanting to run, but about the body being unable to move!
The mind goes blank, almost as if detached from consciousness!
