Love Knows No Bounds

Chapter 645

"Kendall."

Dylan embraced her but couldn't bring himself to say anything that could possibly console her.

Orapolis Bridge was at least ten meters deep. All victims were in the car, which would swiftly sink after falling into the river. The likelihood of them escaping is exceptionally slim, even if they can swim.

"Head to Orapolis Bridge."

Dylan ordered Ronnie with a heavy heart.

Ronnie immediately turned the car around and drove to the destination.

As Dylan hugged his beloved wife tightly, he phoned investigators to continue looking into Kelly and Rosemi and keeping an eye on Rosemi's whereabouts.

He had a gut feeling that Kelly and Rosemi were involved in this car crash, and Rosemi was the mastermind behind this tragedy.

Dylan sent some of his men to keep an eye on her and stop her from fleeing.

The moment Dylan hung up, his phone started to ring once more.

An unknown caller ID flashed across his phone screen.

Dylan had never responded to unusual calls before but did so this time.

Only his family members knew his phone number because the one ringing was his personal phone.

"It's me, Dylan."

Adam's voice could be heard on the other end of the line.

"Is that you, Daddy?"

When Kendall heard Dylan's reply, she yanked the phone out of his grasp, raised it, and exclaimed, "Daddy, is that you? Mommy and the others—where are they?" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Kendall was choking on tears as she blurted out question after question. So, Adam, knowing right then that they were aware of the car accident, cut to the chase and informed his daughter and son-in-law that they were en route to the hospital.

"Kendall, we're all right. We merely had a few gulps of river water due to the accident. We're currently at the hospital. They've already given us a body check-up. We might develop a cold due to falling into the river, but other than that, we're fine," Adam soothed.

Besides, they only had superficial wounds, and it was far better than actually losing their life.

"I hurriedly borrowed the doctor's phone to call you since I'm afraid you will be concerned once you see the news. All of us are okay, so don't worry. That goes for you as well, Dylan."

When Kendall heard this, she sobbed in relief.

Thank goodness! Thank goodness that my parents are alive!

Although they fell into the river, they are well.

Thank God!

"Don't cry, Kendall. Daddy and Mommy are fine."

Adam's heart ached as he hurriedly tried to console Kendall.

Dylan draped his arm across Kendall's shoulders as he reclaimed his phone and said to Adam, "Dad, you guys should stay in the hospital for now. We'll be there soon enough. Remember, don't go anywhere."

"Okay. Hurry up and stop Kendall from crying. We're fine! She's pregnant, and experiencing emotional rollercoasters isn't good for her."

Adam was worried that her unstable emotions would result in a miscarriage.

"Okay, I will."

After Dylan hung up the phone, he tenderly wiped away Kendall's tears and reassured her, saying, "Honey, don't cry. Our parents are very lucky! They're alive and well. Plus, we're heading to the hospital right now. You're crying so loudly that Dad became so anxious when he heard it on the phone."

"I'm just scared. Even though I know my parents are fine, I'm still terrified that something untoward has

happened to them," Kendall sniffled as she mumbled.

"There, there. Everything will be fine. Let's head to the hospital first. Then, you can call home and request some dry clothing to be sent to the hospital."

"Okay."

Kendall became more at ease after learning that her parents had been saved.

Then, she inhaled deeply as she cleaned her face with a tissue. Once she was certain that she wouldn't burst into tears, she called the maid to send a few sets of clothes to the hospital for her parents.

After a while, she received a phone call from Kelly, informing her that their parents had encountered a car crash, and their car plummeted into Orapolis Bridge.

Kelly was sobbing violently on the other end of the phone.

"Kendall, I'm stuck in a massive traffic jam. I don't think you'll be able to head over here in time. I will walk to the riverside. I believe our parents will be fortunate enough to be rescued," Kelly said.

Kendall remained silent, and she hung up the phone after listening to Kelly's words.

When Kelly heard the dial tone, she merely assumed Kendall had fainted after receiving the shocking news.

Kelly rushed to the scene of the accident, fervently sweeping her gaze across the river, checking

whether her biological and adoptive parents were among the saved victims.

Kendall finally met her family at the hospital after an hour.

"Daddy! Mommy!"

Kendall dashed forward and hugged them tightly.

Adam and Milo thought that it wouldn't do to panic now that everything was settled. So, they had returned to their usual composed demeanor by the time Kendall made her appearance.

On the other hand, the mothers were very emotional the moment their gazes lay on Kendall.

They were almost separated by death.

While Kendall hadn't intended to cry, she found herself crying silently when she was in her mothers' embrace.

The circumstance was just far too horrifying that she genuinely believed that she had lost them.

Plus, for the mothers, this time was the nearest they'd ever been to death's door.

When they were rescued, their minds were utterly blank. They couldn't even react properly as their limbs were scared stiff, both due to fear and the cold, icy river water.

"Okay, stop crying. We are still alive. The victims…"

Adam trailed off after that.

The five of them were all examined by the doctor, who found that they merely had some abrasions— nothing serious—but that they were traumatized and should remain in the hospital for observation before they could be sent home.

All the victims had separate wards, but they were gathered together now.

Many people visited them after learning they were the only survivors among the victims who had fallen into the river. Some of them inquired about the specifics of the tragedy.

"Fortunately, we opened the windows."

Then, as everyone had calmed down, Charlotte declared, "As we approached Orapolis Bridge, I opened the car window because I was feeling quite stuffy. My husband later turned off the air conditioner and rolled down the windows; even the sunroof was wide open."

Five of them in a car were alive thanks to this action and were then saved by passing ships.

Otherwise, they would probably be having this discussion in the Gates of the Afterlife.

"Oh, how fortunate!"

Everyone sighed, thinking they were the lucky ones.

They had opened the car's windows and sunroof just before crossing the bridge, giving the driver and passengers a chance to flee as the vehicle crashed into the river.

Of course, it definitely helped that they were excellent swimmers and didn't lose their rationality when the accident occurred.

Otherwise, it didn't matter how lucky they were; they would drown eventually.

Some even exclaimed words along the lines of Fate being a strange mistress.

Soon, the rest of the Coleman Family arrived at the hospital after they heard the news.

The spectators wisely dispersed and left the victims' relatives to it.

Still, it was only natural that due to the fuss earlier, the masses were made aware of the identities of the five victims who had been successfully rescued—the biological and adoptive parents of the Young Mistress of the Coleman Family.

The media were like sharks scenting blood as they eventually caught on to the situation as well.

However, Dylan's bodyguards appeared just in the nick of time, so the media was unceremoniously barred from forcing any interviews.

By the time Kelly arrived at the hospital, it was already the afternoon.

Adam also informed Kelly after contacting Kendall using the doctor's cellphone. He told Kelly that he had gotten into a car accident and couldn't come to rescue her at that moment. Then, he calmed her down and assured her that the police would handle the situation.

Still, he didn't forget to say that she should pay the necessary compensation as it was her responsibility.

Kelly arrived at the hospital far later than expected due to the stationary traffic and the delay brought on by a car accident. As a result, she had to make a long walk before being able to hail a cab.

Kelly was feeling conflicted when she sat dazedly in the cab.

When she discovered the strategy had worked, she felt a mix of elation, regret, and grief.

She had even sobbed her little heart out. Yet, her supposedly dead parents were alive and well! She didn't even know what words to use to describe her emotional turmoil.
