He immediately stomped hard on the ground. The concrete beneath his foot cracked under the pressure as he shot out like a bolt of lightning to catch the kid. His toes tapped off the front of the car as he floated a few meters backward lightly and landed on the ground gently.

All of that happened in the span of two seconds.

Just as Wilbur put the kid down, the witnessing passers-by let out cries of disbelief.

One woman rushed over upon crying out, pulling the child in for a hug and inspecting him for injuries.

The driver had gotten out of the car as well. She made sure that the kid was alright before walking up to Wilbur.

“It’s you?” Both of them said at the same time.

Wilbur shrugged. “What a coincidence.”

“I’m so sorry, Boss. It’s my fault for not paying attention. Are you alright?” Faye stood where she was, panicking.

“I’m fine.” Wilbur shook his head.

He came up to the child and checked for injuries before turning to the child’s mother. “Is everything alright?”

“Yes, yes… Thank you so much… I was just paying at the store when this kid ran out on his own.” The child’s mother was in shock as well, stuttering as she spoke.

Wilbur smiled. “I’m glad you’re both fine.”

Just then, a crowd had gathered around in curiosity.

That was because they could hardly believe what they had just seen.

Wilbur noticed it and turned to Faye. “Let’s go.”
