Chapter 51
The on-call doctor examined Violet more carefully. He kept shaking his head, muttering to himself, “This is impossible. No, no, this is impossible.”“What part is impossible?” Violet snapped, because the whole situation felt off to her.The on-call doctor pressed on her forehead. He told a nurse to report what happened to Violet’s attending physician.“Mother, Father, what exactly happened? Why am I here?” Violet tried to sit up. She wanted to remove every medical device attached to her body.Of course Violet’s move was stopped, both by her parents and by the on-call doctor still in the room.“Even if you look stable, don’t rush to remove the equipment. It could make your condition worse. We still have to be careful.”“But I don’t need it. I’m fine.” Violet insisted. She didn’t feel any pain at all. And everything stuck to her felt excessive.“My daughter, you just went through a very dangerous accident. The car you were in crashed into a truck. A truck.” Violet’s father got emotional
Chapter 50
The air in Violet’s hospital room felt heavy. The medical machines beeped in monotonous rhythm, drilling into the tension. The bright white ceiling lights glared too harshly, adding fuel to the suffocating atmosphere.Violet’s father yanked Eric’s arm violently. His voice boomed with fury. “Let go of my daughter! Who the hell do you think you are, touching her like that?!”Eric staggered back from the pull, but his grip on Violet’s hand never broke. His fingers clung tight, trembling slightly as he fought against the pain and forced the healing stream to keep flowing. Sweat rolled down from his temples.“David, stop! You’re going to hurt Violet!” Doctor Marry shouted, snatching her husband’s arm, panic shaking her voice.“Me? You’re blaming me?” David barked back, eyes blazing. “Look closely! This brat is the one hurting our daughter! Why do you keep defending him?!”“Because you’re the one in the wrong! You’re yanking Eric’s hand!” Doctor Marry fired back without hesitation. Her eyes
Chapter 49
Violet’s father didn’t understand, but Eric’s words had convinced him, gave him a shred of hope for Violet’s recovery, even if he doubted that hope would last.The two of them hurried toward Violet’s room.Eric wasn’t feeding Violet’s father false optimism just to calm him down. He actually believed he could help this time. Deep inside, Eric called the System.[Yes, Master.]‘Can I claim the Luck Fragment now?’[Of course, Master. You can request anything to shape luck itself.]‘Anything?’[Correct, anything.]‘Can I request a Healing Feature?’[Very possible. But the System detects no weakness or illness in the Host’s body. Your health is over 95%. If you feel unwell, it’s only because of lack of rest.][All you need is proper sleep. Eat, rest, and your body will return to peak condition. System has noticed your sleep schedule has been a mess lately. You can use this Luck Fragment for something far more valuable.]‘I know. My body’s fine. I don’t need it. But my friend is dying. Can
Chapter 48
Violet’s father let out a heavy sigh, choosing silence, refusing to argue with his wife. He tried to understand that she was frantic, her heart and mind clouded with worry, speaking recklessly. He decided to bring up Violet’s engagement with Edward later, once things calmed down.But the silence didn’t last long. Doctor Marry, still seething, poured out her anger again. “I kept my mouth shut, even though I never liked Edward from the start, all because I respected your decision. That was the biggest mistake of my life. And you better know this, I’ll never make that mistake again. If Edward is proven guilty, I won’t just call off Violet’s engagement, I’ll file for divorce too.”“What?” Violet’s father’s eyes went wide. His wife’s words were starting to sound completely irrational.“If Violet wasn’t engaged to Edward, they wouldn’t have gone out together. And my daughter would never have been in that accident!”He sneered. “Control yourself. Everything will be fine. No one knows when m
Chapter 47
This time, once again, the two police officers could not stop their necks from turning toward each other. Then, wrinkles formed on their foreheads.“How do you know?” one of the officers asked.“According to the information we received, the victim and her son have no relatives in this city. Mr. White is not related to them either, he was only the rescuer who later brought the victim to the hospital.”Edward and his family were dumbfounded. They clenched their teeth, glaring at Eric with hatred, blaming him as the root of this trouble, as the man who caused Edward to suffer such serious injuries now.‘So this ice cream seller is the one who saved that beggar woman. Idiot! What good is it? He only added more poor people like himself to breathe in this city! Disgusting!’ Edward cursed in his heart.He thought, if only Eric had used a bit of sense, he and Violet would not have been dragged into this chase with the police. That would mean this damned accident would never have happened to h
Chapter 46
People in the room were instantly stunned by the words that flowed from the mouth of Mrs. Laura, Edward’s mother.The atmosphere immediately turned silent, as if time stopped ticking. The most apparent expression of shock was clearly visible on the face of Doctor Marry, and of course, on Edward himself.Their breaths were held, and their eyes met one another, searching for certainty and the hidden meaning behind the statement that had just echoed in the room.Edward, who had felt uneasy from the start, shook his head slowly. Both his eyebrows drew tight, forming a line of anxiety on his forehead. His face tensed, not only because of the pain from the post-accident injuries he was feeling, but also because of the unease that was slowly creeping through his entire mind.In Edward’s mind, the name Eric was nothing more than that of a roaming ice cream seller who behaved arrogantly and shamelessly. Someone who liked to boast, unafraid to cause trouble with anyone, even when facing someone
