The Long Road to Love: The Capable CEO Dad
Chapter 112: Car Crash
CHAPTER 112: CHAPTER 112: CAR CRASH
Thinking of this, Hugo Quinn couldn’t care about anything else and immediately got in the car to chase after.
Marcus gripped the steering wheel. Because he was so small, he had to stretch his entire lower body out to press the accelerator.
However, he drove very steadily and gently parked the car in the city center.
He opened the navigation beside him, entered Eleanor Hollis’s address, and then carefully made a turn.
"Bang!!"
A car behind suddenly crashed into his car’s rear, and he almost flew towards the window glass.
But luckily, he had fastened his seatbelt.
Marcus was driving a black Bentley, with a license plate number that was extremely impressive, so nobody with any sense would crash into it, knowing it could cost tens or hundreds of thousands to compensate.
Sasha Morgan got out of her car, saw the luxury car parked ahead, and a flash of interest crossed her eyes; the person inside must certainly be wealthy or noble.
She tidied her hair and then gently walked over, softly knocking on the car window.
"Sir, I’m very sorry, my car accidentally hit yours. I’m willing to compensate. Could you please come out and talk to me?"
Her voice was coquettish, even with a hint of intentional charm.
But Marcus was a child, so he couldn’t pick up on that, just felt it quite troublesome.
He unbuckled his seatbelt and opened the car door.
"Oh my! It’s a child. Kids can drive luxury cars worth millions now?!"
"No way, aren’t the parents too careless? What if something happened to the child?"
The luxury car was hit, and the people around were happy to stop and watch the show.
When they saw a child getting out, they almost wanted to poke their eyes out.
Even Sasha Morgan hadn’t expected a child would be inside. She looked closely and confirmed that aside from this child, there was indeed no one else.
"Little friend, I’m very sorry for hitting your car. I will compensate you. Can you give me your parent’s phone number?"
Marcus had a stern face, looking quite similar to Hugo Quinn; even at his young age, he had a strong presence.
Having been in business for a few years, Sasha Morgan naturally understood the child’s distinguished status because such luxury cars are unaffordable for most.
Moreover, the child’s attire was all top designer brands, indicating a wealthy family background.
If she could connect with his parents, it would certainly open another line of social dynamics.
Marcus glanced at the rear of his car and saw it had already been dented, and his brows furrowed unhappily. What a bother, Hugo was going to scold him later.
"Little friend, I didn’t mean anything else, just wanted to compensate you. This car is quite expensive, and taking it to a repair shop might cost a hefty amount."
Sasha Morgan lowered her posture even more, speaking gently to Marcus.
Marcus returned to the car, took out paper and pen, and wrote Eleanor Hollis’s number.
"This is my mom’s number, her surname is Hollis."
He was also hungry, just in time for his mom to take him out for a meal.
Sasha Morgan felt like she had struck gold. It’s hard to get the personal number of such big shots, and she hadn’t expected a child to give it so easily.
Indeed, just a child.
"Okay, I will contact your parents immediately."
Eleanor Hollis was tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep, when the phone rang.
She picked it up and saw it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello?"
"Is this Miss Hollis? I accidentally hit your child’s car, and the rear is dented. I’m willing to compensate, but only the child is in the car. Could you please come over?"
For a moment, Eleanor Hollis did not understand what she meant, only the child in the car?
Moreover, the voice over the phone seemed to be on the street. Could Marcus really be driving alone on the street?
Oh my, what kind of child care is Hugo Quinn providing!
"Are you saying Marcus is driving alone on the street?! Is he okay? Is he hurt?!"
Sasha Morgan felt the voice was familiar but couldn’t recall where she’d heard it before, so she quickly responded.
"He’s fine, Miss Hollis, you don’t need to worry. I’ll take full responsibility. I just need you to come over."
"Alright, send me the address."
Eleanor Hollis instantly got out of bed and started getting dressed, her mind filled with anxiety, cursing Hugo Quinn repeatedly.
Indeed, Marcus was safer with her. Men are just careless with children.
But why did that voice sound so familiar? Like she’d heard it before?
This thought circled in her mind once, and then Eleanor Hollis tossed it aside, hurriedly getting dressed and rushing out the door.
It had been a few years since she and Sasha Morgan last met, and the voice over the phone didn’t quite match reality, so neither recognized each other immediately.
After hanging up, Sasha Morgan carefully took out a mirror and tidied up her makeup.
If this encounter went well, perhaps they could even become friends.
Being friends with such big shots could undoubtedly propel her company to greater heights.
After tidying up her makeup, she noticed an ice cream shop nearby. To win over Marcus, she squatted down.
"Little friend, what’s your name? Let me treat you to some ice cream, okay?"
Knowing his mom was coming, Marcus felt a bit better and no longer blamed Sasha Morgan.
"Marcus Quinn, I want strawberry flavor."
Sasha Morgan was instantly delighted, as if she’d received a royal decree, and immediately headed into the shop.
While paying, her phone rang again; it was a call from a high school classmate.
"Sasha, you said Eleanor Hollis would attend the reunion, is that true? We’re all really looking forward to it, wondering how far that top student has fallen."
Sasha Morgan’s lips curved into a smile. She hadn’t spared Eleanor Hollis any bad words in their group chat lately.
Everyone was now waiting for the class reunion, eager to see Eleanor Hollis make a fool of herself.
"Of course she’ll come. Her favorite teacher is ill, and it’s the last class reunion. No matter how badly she’s doing, she’ll show up, rest assured."
She chose the most expensive ice cream because the child’s status demanded it.
"Sasha, aren’t you also looking forward to this reunion? Back in school, the Chinese teacher always compared you to her, often saying hurtful things. I’m sure Eleanor was secretly proud back then, and now you finally get to hold your head high."
Sasha Morgan’s face was filled with pride. She’d been able to hold her head high for a long time, but hadn’t encountered Eleanor Hollis these past years.
Hmph, the last time she ran into her at the supermarket, she was overjoyed.
"For my sake, be sure to take good care of her when the time comes."
A hint of malice flashed in her eyes, and she said with a smirk.
She felt indescribably pleased.
"Don’t worry, Sasha, I’ve already arranged with some other classmates. We’ll make sure she’s humiliated!"
