Helen waved her hand. "That person has been sent to the hospital anyway, so he's probably fine now. Moreover,
it's not like we're not going to pay for the medical fees. Why do you even care how the person is doing?"
Sasha was exasperated as her mother's behavior was indeed outrageous. At this moment, Matthew walked
around the scene and approached her before speaking in a small voice, "It's quite serious. I'm worried that the
injured person's life is at risk."
Her expression changed drastically. "Really?"
He nodded as he had figured out the injured person's condition after examining the scene.
Helen's expression changed. "No way! It's just a car crash. H-How could that person be seriously injured?"
Minerva shot him a glare and snorted. "Matthew, stop trying to scare us with frightening words. How did you
have the gall to spout nonsense after just walking around the place? The victim is seriously injured? How serious
is it? Tellnow! Do you think you're a medical expert now after spending smoney to buy the department
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthead's position at the hospital?" Then, she spat.
Helen heaved a sigh of relief. "It was Matthew who said it? What does he know?"
Sasha answered anxiously, "Mom, what Matthew has said is true!"
Helen waved her hand. "Alright, cut the crap. Call the insurance company now. Tate, don't worry. You'll be fine."
Tate nodded with a smile and shot Matthew a disdainful glance.
A short moment later, the police arrived at the scene. Sof the police officers started examining the scene
and collecting the evidence while two of them approached Tate and interrogated him. When Tate was asked who
the driver was, he immediately pushed Joanna out. "It was my girlfriend. She was the driver. She was driving
slowly at that time, but that person broke the traffic rules and rushed across the road. That was how she
accidentally crashed into that person."
One of the police shot him a glance. "Are you sure it was that person who broke the rules? The lane where the
collision happened is for motorcycles and electric bikes. Judging from the electric bike's condition he was using
the lane in an appropriate manner while you crashed into him from behind. Who was the one who broke traffic
rules here?"
Tate immediately hung his head low and muttered, "If we're in a foreign country, he would've been considered
going the wrong way."
The police refuted, "You're talking about a foreign country. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. You should
follow our traffic rules here!"
He rolled his eyes and stopped talking.
The police then turned to look at Joanna. "Please show us your driver's license and related documents."
After she fished out her driver's license and other documents, the police took them and copied them on a file.
Another police officer then approached his colleague and spoke in his ear.
The cop's expression changed before he turned to look at Joanna solemnly. "Miss, I'll ask you one more time. Are
you sure it was you who were driving the car?"

Although Joanna was flustered, she still nodded and replied in a trembling voice, "I-It was me."
The police said coldly, "Miss, lettell you something. It's a breach of law as well if you take the fall for
someone else. Moreover, the injured person is in the emergency room. He's severely injured and he might not
even be out of the woods. If he passes away, you'll be held responsible for crashing into someone and causing
his death. This is no laughing matter!"
Her face had turned completely pale as she was utterly apprehensive.
Tate hurriedly added, "It's just a car crash, so how serious can it be? We'll just compensate him with money. Do
you think we don't have enough money to do that?"
As he spoke, he pulled Joanna's clothes slightly to motion for her to rest assured.
In response, she dipped her head with difficulty.
The police shot Tate a glance and uttered, "You don't have the final say in this case. Everything has to be done
according to the law. Also, we'll get the surveillance footage from nearby places and ask around to find out who
the real driver is!"
