Chapter 5
For some reason, John felt a sense of
unease as he watched Sharon's race car in the video.
At that moment, Sharon made a mistake in
her operation.
John couldn't help but urgently remind her,
“Sharon, what are you doing?”
“The drifting angle is off; the steering wheel was turned too early.”
Each accusation made Sharon panic more.
Her mistakes multiplied.
One by one, the cars behind her overtook
her.
When the race ended,
Sharon took off her helmet and threw it to
the ground, lashing out at John :
“What are you shouting about? It's all your fault for giving bad
instructions. Otherwise, I would have won the championship.”
The veins on John 's forehead bulged as he
tried to stay calm and talk to Sharon.
“You made several mistakes and blame me for giving wrong
instructions.”
“If it were Vivian, she would never have made such mistakes.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw
Sharon's eyes fill with tears, and she said indignantly:
“I knew it, you're still thinking about that woman. If that's the
case, then let Vivian participate.”
John
softened his tone, feeling a bit heartbroken, and was about to comfort
her.
His phone rang, “What? You
mean Vivian jumped into the lake and died.”
In that instant, his mind went blank, and
he almost dropped his phone.
Something seemed to be slipping away from
him.
He collected himself, instructed his
assistant to buy the nearest plane ticket, and hurried towards the airport.
By the time John arrived at the Bay Bridge, the caretaker
quickly handed him the pregnancy test.
Upon seeing it, the blood drained from John
's face, and his lips trembled.
Regret and self-reproach overwhelmed him.
“How could I have done such a despicable thing!”
“Find her, alive or... dead.”
The last few words were spoken so softly
they were almost inaudible.
John
stood on the bridge, staring at the surging river below, his eyes
hollow.
The assistant reported, “Mr. , we've
been searching all day, but we still haven't found Miss Vivian's body.”
“Maybe Miss Vivian has been washed downstream.”
“Keep searching!” John 's eyes were bloodshot, and he said resolutely.
John
stared blankly at Vivian's SNS profile picture.
It was taken by him when Vivian won her
first championship, and she had never changed it since.
He clicked on the profile picture and found
an unread voice message.
“I knew you were pregnant all along, Vivian. I hinted to John that I
wanted the championship. That's why he tampered with your tires, causing you to
crash 99 times and miscarry.”
Sharon's malicious voice came through the
speaker, making John 's body jolt.
The test was tightly clenched in his hand.
John
had never hated himself so much.
He had harmed his own child for a malicious
woman and lost Vivian, who loved him so much.
Thinking about what he had done to Vivian
later,
A heavy stone seemed to press on his chest,
making it hard to breathe.
His heart ached in spasms.
But John
felt that Vivian must have been in even more pain at that time.
Suddenly, John seemed to think of something.
He grabbed the car keys from his assistant
and rushed back to the villa.
He tried to find traces of Vivian in the
villa, but there was nothing.
He knew Sharon had thrown them away.
And the beautiful memories between the two
of them were lost because of him.
Sharon's coquettish laughter came from the
bedroom.
“John , that fool, actually dared to blame me. It was just a few
words of weakness at first, and he made Vivian suffer for me.”
“He even killed his own child. I heard that woman is dead too.
Tomorrow, I'll leave the country and let John
regret it.”
Hearing this, a surge of anger rushed to
John 's head.
He rushed forward, grabbed Sharon's hair,
and slapped her.
“It's all because of you, you wretch. If it weren't for you, Vivian
wouldn't have left.”
“Help... I'm sorry...” Sharon's cries for help came through the door.
