Chapter 344

At first, Tina was simply sitting in the car as she waited for the police to guide the vehicles to anotherroute.

However, she couldn‘t sit still anymore when she saw that person.

The man on the stretcher wasn‘t just any stranger, but someone she was familiar with. Until today,she still harbored guilt and remorse toward that man.

He was John Carter!

“John!” Tina got out of her car in a hurry and rushed forward for a closer look.

However, the police officers stopped her from entering the scene.

This time, Tina was sure that she didn‘t see it wrongly. She was certain that the man on the stretcher wasJohn Carter!

After five years, she didn‘t expect to see John again. At least, not in this way. John was a kind man whotreated her like his own family.

“Officer, I‘m not here to stir trouble. That man involved in the accident is my brother! I know him!” Tinasaid with excitement.

However, the officer shot her a look of doubt.

The people surrounding her couldn‘t help but remark sarcastically, “And you expect us to believe that?Why don‘t you just compare the car he had and yours!” “You two don‘t share any similarities at all.What‘s more, judging by the way you dress, it doesn‘t look like you‘re on the same level as him. Justadmit it! You‘re here to get something out of this tragedy, right?” “This woman apparently has the looks,

but not the brains!” Tina didn‘t have the means to prove her identity. So, she could only stare as theambulance left the scene with John.

She knew it was useless to ask the officers the hospital John was being sent to. Instead, she rushedback to the villa and searched for the contacts of local hospitals in the area. Then, she relied on the mosttraditional way of getting information; cold–calling and emailing the hospitals to look out for John‘sarrival.

“Hi, can I know if you‘ve received any admission of a man involved in a car accident on the streetcalled Les Champs–Élysées?”

A night went by, and she finally received some replies from just a few hospitals in the afternoonthe next day.

The patient‘s life was not in danger, but the hospital couldn‘t disclose more information aboutpersonal details due to confidentiality. Tina couldn‘t help but sigh with relief when she found outthat John‘s life was not in jeopardy.

However, she wasn‘t planning on meeting John in person. After all, they were sworn into siblingsonly in the heat of the moment. After she was rescued

from drowning and survived the ordeal, Tina escaped to Paris and lost all contact with John. Soon, fiveyears had passed. Tina couldn‘t bring herself to show up in front of John anymore. After Tina rested for awhile, she was awakened by a sudden phone call from Cindy. “Tina! Come to where I am now thisinstant!” Cindy continued arrogantly, “I‘m about to go shopping with a few of my friends, and we needsomeone to carry our bags around. Get your ass here right now!” Soon, Tina appeared in front of them.Cindy‘s friends were wives of local renowned entrepreneurs who held respectable statuses. The

moment they saw Tina, they were all shocked. “Isn‘t she the fashion designer Linda? I heard she‘s reallyfamous in the fashion industry! I bet you paid a lot for her to come here personally.” “I paid her? She‘snot worth that money!” Cindy continued with a condescending tone. “Don‘t you know who my husbandis? One word from him, and she‘ll be dead in seconds! She‘s just a maid to me. You can ask her todo whatever you want!” “Mrs. Langford, your husband must love you very much...!” “I heard youattended the duke‘s family feast with Mr. Langford yesterday. How was his house? I bet it‘s reallyluxurious!” Cindy‘s face dropped at the mention of the family feast. “I don‘t want to talk about it!”“What happened that made you so unhappy?” they asked curiously.
