Chapter 1442: Xia Ruya Gets into a Car Accident!

Xia Ruya began to feel increasingly uneasy and terrified as the news about Old Mr. Mo continued to spread.

She knew that Wen Xinya had been very worried about Old Mr. Mo’s health and had been staying by his side in the hospital lately, focusing all her attention on his health. She was too busy for revenge at the moment.

Once Old Mr. Mo recovered, Wen Xinya would have the energy to start taking revenge. Although she was not necessarily afraid of Wen Xinya, she was afraid of the mysterious Mr. Si.

Ever since Old Mr. Mo was rescued and was out of danger, Xia Ruya began to feel like her life was in danger and that staying at home was unsafe. She would often become paranoid about whether or not she had locked the windows and the doors. She often felt like there would be someone climbing in through the windows. Hence, she would check them a few times a day.

After going out, she would subconsciously go to crowded places and feel terrified and nervous whenever she saw someone dressed differently.

It had only been three days since she lived in fear, but it was enough to drive her crazy. She felt that she would definitely develop depression and become deranged if that were to go on.

Hence, she spent a huge sum of money on hiring a bodyguard from the black market, who was also an assassin, to protect her.

The bodyguard was proficient in martial arts and was known to be a top assassin. He had protected several major figures of various nations and it was said that he had never made any mistakes before. Hence, he had also earned a hefty sum of commission for himself and Xia Ruya had to spend a bomb on hiring him, though she felt the pinch greatly.

“It should be fine for us to go shop at Pearl Mall!” Xia Ruya only felt safe and secure after hiring a bodyguard. She felt like her life was guaranteed and hence, proceeded to meet Jiang Ruoyin at Pearl Mall where they would be visiting the flagship Chanel store to take a look at the white dress.

“Don’t worry. Since you’ve hired me, I’ll be responsible for your safety and make sure that your life is not threatened in any way,” said the bodyguard, who was buff and tall, standing at 1.9 meters tall. He was also a stereotypical African man who had dark and glossy skin, exuding a murderous vibe.

He was definitely not one to be trifled with.

“I can rest my mind, then.” Xia Ruya was rather pleased with him, for he gave off a menacing and murderous aura. She could tell that he had killed someone and been through bloodshed before. He also seemed cruel and ruthless, much stronger than the terrorists from the West Region.

The bodyguard was driving the car steadily on the road.

All of a sudden, the car screeched loudly.

Xia Ruya leaned forward involuntarily as she felt the car make a sudden turn.

“Wha happened?” She asked while jerking uncontrollably. Her heart palpitated vigorously and she was filled with terror and uneasiness.

“There’s a car tailing us,” the bodyguard answered in fluent English, sounding austere.

Xia Ruya turned pale and subconsciously turned around to look behind. However, she jerked again and her head was slammed against the glass forcefully, causing her to feel an excruciating pain which made her feel giddy.

Trying to bear with the pain and calm herself down, Xia Ruya asked, “Is it the person who’s trying to kill me?”

Xia Ruya could not help but tremble. Even though she had a competent bodyguard beside her, she did not feel like her life was in safe hands.

“I’m afraid so. There are no surveillance cameras along this stretch. The culprit has chosen a good timing,” the bodyguard answered with a sullen expression as he continued to drive, trying his best to shake off the car that was tailing them.

At this moment, Xia Ruya began to regret her decision. Due to the fact that she was worried about Wen Xinya taking revenge, she secretly bought a few properties in Capital city so as to provide more hiding places for herself. The mansion in the suburbs that she was currently staying in was one of the most obscure spots.

She decided to move in because of how worried, paranoid and insecure she felt. The suburbs were an hour away from the city center and there were barely any cars along the road. Yet, she still managed to get tailed.

At this moment, both cars had entered a three-way junction and Xia Ruya was overjoyed, for she knew that there would be an increase in traffic. Regardless of how impressive the tailgater may be, they wouldn’t dare to do anything outrageous.

To their surprise, however, the tailgater made a U-turn and drove away.

Just as Xia Ruya was busy feeling puzzled, the bodyguard said fearfully in shock, “Bad news. The brakes are faulty and petrol is leaking!”

Xia Ruya had yet to realize what his words meant. The next thing she knew, the man who swore to protect her life suddenly activated the cabriolet and leaped out of the car swiftly.

Xia Ruya widened her eyes in terror and she fell speechless.

Since the brakes were faulty, the car would be out of control and the fact that there was a petrol leak meant that the car would catch on fire because of the high speed it was traveling at. Once it came into contact with air, it would combust and explode…

Xia Ruya finally recovered from the shock and slammed the car door like a madwoman while yelling, “Hurry and save me. Once you save me, I’ll increase your commission…”

Xia Ruya screamed at the top of her voice as she continued to hit the car door with her soft and tender hands. She even tried to pry the door open. Initially, she was hoping that the bodyguard would rescue her after making it out of the car. However, he scrambled towards the road and leaped into a barricade by the roadside before vanishing out of sight.

Xia Ruya finally realized that she had been abandoned. She screamed and cried hysterically, “Don’t go, please don’t go… save me… turn around and save me…”

The car traveled towards the road at godlike speed and collided into a barricade on the other side.

Xia Ruya screamed and her body was involuntarily slammed into the glass window in front of her because of the impact.

Xia Ruya’s head began to bleed and her blood was splashed all over the glass, after which she began to lose her consciousness.

On the other end of the barricade, there was a small slope. The car crashed through the barricade and began rolling down the slope.

The deafening sounds of an explosion filled the air and soon, thick fumes of smoke began traveling upwards from the car which was engulfed by flames.
