My Mute Bride

Chapter 82 No Mercy

Rachel’s car wouldn’t stop speeding and swerving through the road. The rain was making it difficult for Hans to see as well, but the moment he saw through the wipers, he could see Rachel in the car. However, instead of stopping for him, she kept driving ahead. He knew something was wrong, so he chased after her.

The East Coast highway was the one with the least traffic in the city, especially on rainy days. Even so, that didn’t make Rachel relax one bit, not after she had sped past three cars. At that point, she was drenched with sweat.

“You’re on the highway now, aren’t you? The cops are clearing the path right now. Turn on cruise control and brace yourself for a crash.”

A crash? All the color drained from her face, and she started imagining every horrific way to die in a car crash.

“You’ll be fine, so don’t worry. You should see a container in the middle of the road in a couple of minutes. Crash into it, and the airbags will shield you. That’s the only thing you can do now.” He looked at her calmly.

Rachel gritted her teeth. Not like I have any other choice.

A while later, Rachel realized there were barely any cars on the road. The rain was still crashing down, but Rachel had no time to care about that. She was still driving, but her hands were already sweaty, and she almost lost her grip on the steering wheel. Eventually, she saw a blue container standing in the middle of the road. Remembering Justin’s advice, she crashed into the container’s side.

Bam!

A moment later, smoke billowed from the engine, and flames roared.

That was what Hans saw when he got to the scene. At the same time, a black car sped past him before screeching to a halt in the middle of the highway. Justin then sprinted toward Rachel’s car and smashed the window.

Hans was in his car, watching the scenario unfold in the rain.

“Rachel!” Justin was roaring and yelling at everyone to disassemble the car to save Rachel.

The airbags sprung into action the moment Rachel crashed into the container. She could feel her whole body getting squashed by a soft, airy thing, and she felt suffocated by the airbag. The car stopped quickly after the initial crash, but she couldn’t get her ears to stop buzzing. A long while later, the sound of something smashing her car’s window made her snap out of it. She tried to see who it was, but all she could make out was a familiar face. The rain made everything blurry, after all.

The scene of the accident was cordoned off by the police a short while later, while the sirens of firetrucks and ambulances kept blaring around her.
