Chapter 914
Trapped in Love
Caroline, who was sound asleep in the ICU, abruptly opened her eyes. Cold sweat covered her forehead as she gasped for breath. A pang gripped her heart, and she tightly held her aching chest, suppressing the excruciating pain.
A sense of extreme insecurity and void filled her with panic and chaos. She couldnât pinpoint the origin of this feeling, but it was as if she had lost something crucial, suffocating her with intense pain.
Greta was near the door and heard a soft, ticking sound emanating from the machine in the ward. She quickly raised her red, swollen eyes and rushed to the glass window.
When she saw Caroline curling up, looking pale, fear seized her. She immediately dashed to the nursesâ desk to seek help.
A nurse swiftly called a doctor to address Carolineâs situation.
Approximately ten minutes later, the doctor emerged from the ward. He glanced at Greta and explained, Sheâs in pain due to her injury, and weâve administered painkillers.â
Greta nodded and watched the doctor leave before walking toward the glass window. Silent tears streamed down her face as she gazed at Caroline, âCarolâ¦â Greta placed her hand on the window and sobbed. âWe still have no news about Neil after the accident, and you must be safeâ¦â In a VIP ward.
Tyler and Axel sat in front of a laptop, scrutinizing surveillance footage before Neilâs car accident. Tyler clenched his fists tightly, delivering a forceful punch to the overbed table.
âThe driver did it on purpose! Itâs obvious. Someone must have ordered him to do it.â
The truck accelerated the moment its driver spotted Neilâs car, deliberately colliding with it when Neil changed his route.
Tylerâs eyes turned scarlet as he processed the intentional act.
The crying Liora looked up from Axelâs arms. âIt was my fault. I should have stopped them because Iâve already felt it. It was my faultâ¦â
Feeling compassion for Liora, Axel gently touched her head. âNo, Lia, It wasnât your fault. It was that Liora gasped. âI donât want to lose Uncle Neil and Uncle Kenny. I want them backâ¦â
Tyler and Axel pursed their lips tightly in response to her words, understanding that miracles were scarce in the world.
After a moment, Axel turned to Tyler. âIâm certain this incident is connected to the person targeting Mommy and Daddy, Ty.â
Tyler nodded, suppressing his emotions. âYes, Iâm aware, but we canât do anything! I hate that my age limits me and I lack real power. All I can do is type on a laptop!â
Axel silently observed Tylerâs face growing colder, with indescribable and complex emotions surfacing within him.
Axel hadnât spent much time with Neil and Kenny, so he didnât feel as deeply for them. Nevertheless, he felt helpless and sad, unable to offer comforting words due to the weight on his mind.
After briefly contemplating, Axel remarked, âThis accident is now a hot topic in the city. Daddy will come home right away when he reads about it. Once heâs back, those perpetrators wonât escape.â
Tyler slowly lowered his head and rested his forehead on the overbed table. His body tensed as he trembled.
Simultaneously, Axelâs eyes reddened.
Throughout this period, everyone teetered on the brink of a mental breakdown, due to Caroline, Neil, and Kenny.
Explaining the incident to Caroline remained a challenging issue.
After nearly 20 hours, the rescue team discovered a corpse.
