Chapter 1040 Sonia Did It For You
Emmeline had already removed Sonia's helmet.
She was unconscious, clearly having suffered a severe impact during the crash.
There were no visible external injuries on her head, but one of her legs was fractured, with blood gushing out her skin through her flesh which had been pierced by the bone.
Emmeline furrowed her brows, using her fingers to apply pressure on several meridian points and stop the bleeding. She turned to Abel, who had rushed over, and said, "She needs to get to a hospital right now. Her leg is broken!"
Abel hurried over and, seeing Sonia's condition, didn't dare to waste any time. He lifted her up and ran towards the car.
Sonia's group went after him, calling out to her, "Sonia, are you okay? Sonia, how are you?"
But Sonia remained unconscious and was unable to speak.
Because they were in the suburbs, there was some distance to the city center.
Forty minutes later, Sonia was brought into the orthopedics department of the Ryker Hospital.
On the way, Abel had already called the orthopedics department, and the person who answered happened to be Kendra's ex-husband, Henry.
Upon hearing Abel's description, Henry quickly set up the operating room and prepared for surgery.
After Sonia was taken into the operating room, Abel asked Waylon and Benjamin to go back.
It wouldn’t look good to have everyone crowded around the door, as if something big had happened.
Waylon was worried and instructed Abel to call him if there was anything urgent.
Benjamin naturally didn't want to leave either and intended to stay with them.
However, Emmeline kept urging him, "Hurry up and take Janie back home. It’s been a long day."
Janie said, "Emma, it’s okay. I don’t have anything to do back home anyway. I'd rather stay here with Benjamin and accompany you."
"I have Abel with me," Emmeline said, "I don’t think you would want to be a third wheel, would you?"
Janie and Benjamin fell silent.
"Go on, hurry," Emmeline urged them again, "You're all hovering around like a pack of wolves!"
Everyone had no choice but to go back.
Most of Sonia's people had also left, leaving only Ysabel and three others at the door of the operating room.
The woman was sobbing, "How did things turn out like this so suddenly? What are we going to do now?"
One of the men said, "Can a simple race really result in a life-threatening situation? Sonia's driving skills shouldn't be that bad, right?"
Another man said, "Ysabel, have you called Sonia's family?"
The woman replied, "Exactly! Sonia is the mayor's daughter. If something happens to her, who will take responsibility?"
"I'll call the Steiner family right away," Ysabel cried, "Sonia, you have to hold on. Please be alright!"
Emmeline and Abel stood at a distance, feeling uneasy.
It was supposed to be a simple race, and winning or losing shouldn't have mattered so much. Who would have expected this unpleasant turn of events?
And those outside the race track couldn't see it, but Emmeline knew it all too well.
Sonia's accident wasn't due to her lack of skills but rather a deliberate act.
Sonia had recognized her strength and knew that she would undoubtedly lose.
With less than a kilometer left to go and not much time to spare, Sonia realized she couldn't turn the tide.
So she chose to gamble on her own body and prematurely ended the race.
Technically, Emmeline won, but Sonia didn't exactly lose either.
At the very least, Sonia had successfully avoided Emmeline's demand...not to see her in Struyria!
Emmeline was incredibly smart and immediately understood Sonia's intentions.
"She's actually willing to go to such great lengths," Emmeline leaned against Abel's arm, furrowing her brows and whispering, "If she wants to stay in Struyria so badly, should I really be trying to get rid of her so ruthlessly?"
"What are you saying?" Abel wrapped his hand around her back and asked.
"Do you know?" Emmeline looked up, her gaze somewhat melancholic as she said, "Sonia did this for you."
Abel furrowed his brows in silence for a moment before saying, "Babe, is your head alright? What do you mean she did this 'for me'?" RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
"It's you who's oblivious," Emmeline said in a low voice, "Sonia knew she was going to lose to me, but she didn’t want to leave Struyria and be unable to see you. Hence, she resorted to this strategy to change the situation."
Upon hearing this, Abel was truly at a loss, but he quickly responded, "That's her own doing. It has nothing to do with me!"
Emmeline said, "If I knew she couldn’t afford to lose, I wouldn’t have competed with her. Don't you think it feels wrong now?"
