Chapter 812
The driver died on the spot, and the bodyguard sitting in the
passenger seat was still in the emergency room, but his chances of
survival were slim.
Charles sat in the back, narrowly escaping death as the collision point
was at the front of the car. His face was almost disfigured from the
shattered glass shards, and his head was covered in blood.
However, he permanently lost both his legs due to a comminuted
fracture.
Lance consulted surgeons all over the country, but none of them
could make Charles stand up again!
The family sat in the living room, each with gloomy expressions.
Astrid sobbed. While it was unsure whether her tears were sincere,
the emotions were there. “How could it be? That road was so
smooth. Charles always took that route. How did the accident
happen?”

The air felt heavy.
Christopher sat at the side, as if it had nothing to do with him, and
crossed his legs. He gracefully drank coffee and remarked, “Even if he
takes that route daily, it doesn’t decrease the chances of an accident.
These are two different matters, Astrid.”
Astrid wiped her tears with a napkin, glancing at Christopher with a dark gaze. “Charles
got into a severe accident, but you sound quite happy. Did you finally get what you
wanted?”
“Not really.”
Christopher put down his cup and adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses.” I’m just an
emotionally stable person. I don’t need to cry here as if Charles had already died.”
“You!” Astrid’s eyes reddened, and she trembled with anger.
“Enough! You’ve been fighting since you were children. Don’t you get
sick of it?! Astrid, Charles is lying in the hospital, but you can’t think of a way to help him.
You’re just causing trouble! Do you think our family isn’t chaotic enough?” Lance slammed
his fist on the sofa’s armrest.
After a scolding, Astrid shivered, stopped crying, and glared fiercely at
Christopher.
Christopher thought about it and said slowly, “Dad, I have an idea that
might help Charles’ legs.”
Everyone focused their attention on him.
Lance’s eyes lit up. He leaned forward. “Christopher! Tell me quickly!”
“Bella has another identity as an outstanding surgeon. She recently performed an
extremely challenging brain surgery for Justin Salvador. She’s known as Dr. Brown in the
medical field.”
James suddenly raised his head, staring coldly at Christopher’s calm face, and gritted his
teeth.
“Perhaps I could ask Bella if she’s willing to help. If a renowned surgeon like her could
perform surgery on Charles, he might have a slim chance to regain movement,”
Christopher suggested sincerely.

“What!? Bella is also a surgeon? She did brain surgery for Justin, too?
Is this real?” Lance felt that it was unbelievable.
The girl he had watched grow up was noble and prestigious, but how could she have such
exceptional medical skills?
If it were true, an outstanding woman like Bella should be his daughter

“Of course. I’m not the only one who knows. It’s just that Bella likes to
keep a low profile.”
“Great… That’s great!”
Lance finally had a glimmer of hope. His gaze at Christopher turned
from coldness to excitement and praise. “Christopher, come with me
to Hatchbay tomorrow. We’ll plead for Bella to help Charles!”
“Sure, Dad.” Christopher agreed readily.
“Christopher, you’ve always been close to Bella. Even if she doesn’t
care about me, she should agree to help for your sake, right?” Lance
even spoke gently to this son he had always looked down upon.
“She is a kind doctor. Even without me, I believe she would lend a
helping hand.” Christopher smiled humbly.
Lance flattered him, yet he did not act arrogant. Instead, he appeared
modest.
Lance nodded approvingly. James took in their interaction and gritted
his teeth.
After the family meeting, Christopher happily headed toward his room.
