Chapter Dear 177
Chapter 177
Her words suddenly made Harry realize.
He punched the glass.
Anika shrank back in fear, but she still pretended to be calm."If you don't believe me,you can call her. You
tell her that I'm already dead."
Harry didn't think much. He picked up his phone and dialed Violet's number.
It was frustrating that he couldn't be reached now.
Violet had already blocked him....
"It seems that she was afraid of getting involved with you and being suspected."
'If you had rescued me and the driver now, I wouldn't report you. At most, it was an operational error that
caused the accident.We didn't get hurt. You don't have to take criminal responsibility."
Harry's heart was already in turmoil. He didn't know whether he should listen to Anika or not.
But Anika clearly couldn't hold on any longer. Her voice grew weaker and weaker.
There was suddenly a noisy sound around. She didn't know what Harry had seen. He quickly ran out.
Anika's vision also became increasingly blurry.
Vaguely,she seemed to see a tall figure walking towards her.
At the last moment of unconsciousness, she couldn't see clearly who the man was.
But she felt that the man's shoulders were broad and warm.

In the hospital ward.
Joshua stood tall and lean on the balcony. He lit a cigarette. His hands, with distinct knuckles, were
scratched.
As he was about to smoke, he turned around and looked at Anika lying on the hospital bed, and then put out the cigarette.
She had not been back for long, but she had already been to the hospital at least five times.
His phone rang. He answered it. It was a call from Payton.
*Mr.Conan,the owner of the car involved in the accident was caught by Trent's people.
Joshua's eyes turned slightly cold."I got it."

'There was no need to keep Anika's bodyguards around."
He hung up the phone afterwards.
Before Anika had an accident today, he went back to Rafter Villa first. He didn't expect Anika wasn't there.
So he asked the bodyguard who had been following Anika, and he only found out that she hadhad a car accident after a long time.
When Joshua arrived, Anika was covered in blood. At that moment, he felt like his heart was going to stop. Fortunately, Anika only suffered some external injuries. She fainted due to blood loss, but her condition
was not serious.
After he pulled Anika out of the broken car window, he was about to take her away. To his surprise, Trent
also arrived.
He was not sure how Trent found out about Anika's car accident. After they arrived at the hospital, Anika
was taken to the emergency room. It was then that he discovered the emergency button in Anika's hearing aid.
The first person she contacted before the accident was Trent!
On the sickbed,Anika slept restlessly because she was in pain all over her body.
She had a dream. She dreamed of her father who had passed away many years ago.
Her father gently patted her shoulder and said, "Anika you suffered..."
But the warmth of this moment did not last long. Her father suddenly turned into twinkling starlight and disappeared in front of her. 'Dad..."she couldn't help but call out in her sleep.
Joshua didn't hear what she said. He thought she had woken up, so he approached her.
The next second, Anika groped and grabbed his hand.
'Dad...don't go...don't leave me alone..."
Tears slid from Anika's eyes, soaked into the pillow, and then disappeared.
Joshua's big hand was firmly grasped by her. He felt a mix of emotions in his heart.
He was afraid of waking Anika up, so he didn't pull her hand away. He just stood by her side like that.He stood there for a long time.
It was because she had been holding his hand all along that Anika finally felt at ease.
When she woke up, it was already dawn. Joshua was not here.
On the snow-white blanket lay suit jacket. Her hands were tightly gripping the sleeves of the jacket.
