Chapter 427
Wynn was beside herself with anxiety. “I don’t know! The hospital called and said it was an accident.” An accident? F*ck! Philip
slammed the gas and raced toward the hospital. Once they reached the hospital, Wynn scrambled out of the car. There were a
great many ambulances crowding the entrance, and the casualties kept streaming in. The hospital was in complete chaos!
Several dozen nurses and doctors were yelling at the top of their voices, “Over here, over here! This one’s critical! Stop the
bleeding, stat!”
“We need oxygen over here!” “Hurry up and get more hands in from other hospitals! Call the director!” The scene was a complete
mess. There was an endless stream of victims covered in blood getting carted out of the ambulances! The whole place smelled
of blood! There were missing arms and legs everywhere! The wailing never stopped! Wynn was faint with shock. Her entire body
trembled and she clapped her hand over her mouth, looking for something amongst the bodies covered with white sheets on the

uncovered some of the corpses under the white sheets. It was a sight that did not bear seeing! All he could smell was blood!
“Don’t worry, Wynnie. It’ll be fine, I’m sure they’re fine.” Philip tried to console her. There was a terrible traffic accident. “What do
we do, Philip? What to do? I don’t see my parents anywhere. Could they be…?” Wynn’s body was wracked with sobs that came
from the depths of her heart. The scene here at the hospital was just too much to bear! Philip was anxious too. They were his in-
laws, after all.
He would be at a loss if anything happened to them too. “Doctor, doctor!
Do you know if there are any patients called Martha Yates and Charles Johnston here?” Wynn could
not hold back for another second, so she grabbed one of the doctors as he ran past, covered in blood.
“Are you their family?” The doctor looked at Wynn and Philip suspiciously. He clearly recognized those
names. “Yes, yes! Where are my parents? Are they okay?”
Wynn did not dare to imagine the worst, her large eyes glistening with tears.
“They’re over there.” The doctor just pointed at a corridor leading into the hospital lounge. There were
already many wounded patients seated there.
As soon as she looked, Wynn found her parents sitting in a corner, their heads wrapped in bloodied
bandages. “Mom! Dad!” Wynn flew at them and then threw her arms around Martha and Charles,
bawling her eyes out. So close! That was just too close! Thank goodness they were fine! “Oh, Wynn, I
was nearly a goner there.” Martha was somewhat choked with sobs as well.
That had been quite the scare for her too. They had encountered a terrible accident on the road, and so many people died on the
spot. Thankfully, their driver was a professional, and their car only fell on its side. They sustained wounds on their foreheads and
some scratches here and there. Nevertheless, they were relatively safe. “Are you okay, Mom?” Philip also heaved a sigh of relief
when he saw that his in-laws were alright. He ran up to them and asked Martha out of concern. “Are you blind?! Can’t you see

“What’s the matter? Are you happy to see us injured? I bet you’ve always hoped we would die in an accident so you could inherit
our entire fortune, right?” Martha was furious but also terrified and extremely shaken. Philip’s slowness on the uptake only served
to make her angrier. Was the brat blind? Philip blinked and belatedly realized that he had basically offered himself as a tribute.
Martha was still shaken, so she was taking her anxieties out on him, huh? “Mom, that’s not what I meant. I…” Philip sighed
exasperatedly. “What are you sighing about? Are you unhappy because I called you out? Haha, Philip, oh, Philip.
I’ve always known you’re a terrible person. You leeched off of us for three years, but all you’ve ever wanted is our fortune! Oh, or
could you be aiming for Wynn’s company?” Martha was just flinging baseless accusations around now. “How could you say that,
Mom? Philip and I rushed here the moment we heard the news. He was really worried too.” Wynn could not bear to listen
anymore. Her mother was being so unreasonable! How could she pin everything onto Philip? Besides, Philip did not care at all
about what little money they had. Even the finds for the First Palace of Longford Park had come out of his pocket. “Stop yelling at
Philip, Martha. He did not even do anything wrong, so why are you taking it out on him?” Charles felt a headache coming on. He
held his forehead and glared at Martha. No matter how they cut it, Philip had made them proud earlier that night. How could that
woman turn on him at a whim like that? Charles was relying on Philip’s connection with Nick Cage to bolster his career here.
