Cedric found his body unresponsive

“You sustained a hit to your spine, that’s why you can’t move for now, Bernard informed him. Cedric’s parents scolded him and gave him stern looks.

“You were well aware of how drunk you were, why on earth did you drive to find Bernard?” they reprimanded him. The memories of his car crash from the previous night came flooding back, and he fell silent, his expression subtly changing
