Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 268 An Orchestrated Car Accident And Noah's Regrets

Carla closed her eyes to rest once again. But in a blink of an eye, she heard tires screeching on the

road. It instantly woke her senses. She immediately opened her eyes and saw a truck driving straight

towards their car.

She involuntarily grabbed Noah's shirt, and screamed, "Noah, watch out!"

Being distracted for a second, Noah saw the truck driving towards them as planned so he turned the

steering wheel to the right.

But the truck seemed to lose control. It was still going to hit the car.

In a moment of desperation, Noah turned the wheel sharply so the car crashed into a guardrail.

Because of the huge impact, the guardrail burst open and the car was suddenly out of control as it

drove down the slope.

Carla was overwhelmed.

The airbag restraint system was supposed to open whenever the car was faced with a colossal

collision. As to be expected, the safety airbag at Noah's side opened, but the one at Carla's side didn't.

Carla had no idea why her safety airbag didn't open, nor did she have time to think about it.

Seeing the car drop in the free fall, her first reaction was to turn round and hold Noah's head while she

shouted, "Noah! You saved me before, so it's my turn to save you now!"

The car rolled down the slope to the low cliff underneath.

Every time the car turned over and crashed into the ground, Carla closed her eyes and protected Noah

by holding his head tightly. Somehow, in the face of death, her thoughts were occupied with Sean.

Although Terence would be devastated to lose her, a lot of girls were lining up to marry him. However,

she was Sean's only relative in the world!

At her last moments of consciousness, she was overwhelmed with the thought that there were still a lot

of things she wanted to do.

All of a sudden, the car stopped rolling down.

Carla was lucky because two trees in the mountain stopped the car from moving downhill any further.

However, Noah was stunned.

He never expected that in the moment of life and death, Carla would rather protect him, even at the

cost of her life.

"Carla? Carla! Wake up, Carla!"

Noah tried to wake her up. She was still holding onto him even if she was already unconscious. He

didn't dare to move an inch because the car was hanging between the trees. If he moved a little bit, the

car would fall.

Gently, he lifted her head and found that blood was flowing from her face and her legs seemed to be

stuck between the seat and the front of the car which had been smashed.

At that moment, he felt conflicted. He didn't know what to do anymore.

He placed two of his fingers carefully on top of Carla's neck pulse and found out that she was still

breathing. The impact force of the car falling wasn't that strong enough.

Then, what Todd said to him last night came into his thoughts.

"Noah, if Miss Carla doesn't die from the crash, you can use the tools I've put in your car. As long as

you kill her at that moment, no one will doubt you. They would think Miss Carla died from the car

accident..."

Noah saw a round hammer used to fix cars which fell out on the car's floor. Although it seemed a little

small, Noah knew that it was strong enough to kill Carla.

Noah's dark brown eyes turned to bloodthirsty deep red.

He held the hammer with his trembling hand and closed his eyes. He swallowed hard with his Adam's

apple bobbing up and down in his throat.

As long as Carla died, he would achieve his ambitions.

The moment he had been adopted by the Hua Family, he had dreamed of claiming the Hua family's

assets all to himself someday.

No one had threatened him on his way to success.

But then Carla showed up.

She didn't do anything wrong but she was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Hua.

What was worse, she didn't return his love.

Therefore, Noah couldn't allow her to meet her parents, because it would destroy the plan that he had

meticulously worked hard for years.

His hammer was inches away from Carla's head, but then he stopped.

Noah couldn't do it!

He couldn't kill her by his own hands.

If it was anyone else in front of him, he would definitely kill the person without any hesitations. But it

was Carla and he just couldn't find it in himself to do it!

Watching Carla who was immobile and bleeding, Noah paused. The hammer in his hand couldn't hit

her head.

Suddenly, Noah threw out the hammer from the broken windshield.

"Carla, Carla... Wake up, Carla!"

He shouted and shook her shoulders as gently as possible.

Just then, Noah heard someone calling from the top.

"Are you alright? We're trying to figure out a way to pull you up. Don't make any movements and stay

still!"

Noah could hear that they were anxious. He had no idea who they were, much more that they were

sent by Terence to protect Carla.

So when the car hit the guardrail and rolled down, they arrived as soon as possible. They called the

police and reported the situation to Terence as well.

Now they were trying to help them as much as they could.

The rescue operation started really soon. Fire engines arrived in 10 or 20 minutes, and there was a

helicopter to assist with the rescue. With their cooperation, the helicopter pulled the car up.

But the tree branches were wrapped around the car so it wasn't easy to pull them out. The firefighters

resorted to cutting the trees through their roots so that the car could be taken out with the trees.

At the same time, the ambulance arrived and was on standby.

Noah didn't get hurt severely so he told the medical workers about Carla's situation first. He let the

firefighters take over as they opened the car door by force. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Because the door was closer to Carla, they carried her out of the car first.

They were already near HA City so the ambulance went to the most prominent hospital in the city.

In the ambulance, Noah watched Carla as she lay on the bed, unconscious and bleeding. A lot of

thoughts and emotions were flooding him.

He stroked her face which was really pale due to excessive loss of blood.

"Sorry...

I'm sorry, Carla...

I'm sorry, sorry..."

Noah struggled to say. He was almost in tears. How could he forgive himself? How could he forgive his

own selfishness?

Seeing what happened to Carla, he hated himself. He didn't know what to do anymore. All he knew

was that there was an extreme feeling of regret eating him from the inside.

'Why did you do such a vicious thing? Why are you so heartless?

She's innocent! She didn't do anything wrong!' Noah blamed himself.

He had taken advantage of her for a long time and now she almost died at his hands.

'Noah, the Hua Family has raised you for so long. They gave you everything you needed, everything

you wanted and more, but what did you do? Is this the way to repay them for their kindness?

Even though Carla is their biological daughter, and even though Carla is the greatest threat to your

future endeavors, why would it matter?

You still have other ways to maintain your status and position. You didn't have to kill her!' Noah

continued to condemn himself internally.

His heart was filled with regret. He felt ashamed that he couldn't even face himself.

Soon, the ambulance arrived at HA City's most prestigious hospital.
