Chapter 924

They Fled

Since they were in a hospital, the crowd managed to ask for an empty ward so that Helen could rest
inside. While she rested, the rest of the victims’ family members waited around outside her room. It
seemed like they had all come to the same unspoken conclusion—they would all request for Helen to
compensate for their losses. The Cunningham Family looked like they had a lot of money to spare, after
all.

The skies had turned bright by the time Helen woke up. She let out a long sigh when she saw the noisy
crowd waiting outside her room. “What’s the situation right now, Demi? Is Tate alright?”

“How could you still ask about him?” Demi cried angrily. “His entire family ran off in the middle of the
night!”

Helen was dumbfounded. “R-Ran off? Why would they run off?”

“Why else? They caused such a huge mess. Of course they’d run off! The deceased victims’ family
members can’t find them now—that’s why they’re waiting around outside the ward! And they call
themselves your family, Mom? How could they be so heartless?” Demi cried.

Helen couldn’t process the news at all. She hadn’t expected her own sister to do such a thing to her. At
that very moment, loud noises came from outside the room. Soon enough, the crowd of people was
chased off by someone. Sasha let herself into the ward right after that.

When Demi saw the crowd dispersing outside the ward, she couldn’t help but beam. “Did you get
someone to send them off, Sasha? That’s great! You should have done it from the start! Those idiots are
standing around just because they think we’re rich! They’re crazy! What has this got to do with our family,
right?”



“I didn’t send them off!” Sasha growled. “I made a police report, and the police came over to deal with
them.”

Although Demi was rather taken aback at first, her smile quickly returned to her face. “Well, you should
have done it earlier!” Helen, on the other hand, seemed rather worried to hear what Sasha said. “W-Why
did you do that, Sasha? If things get serious, Tate might have to go to prison…”



Sasha’s patience was running thin. “Look at how serious the situation is, Mom. Do you still think there’s a
chance that Tate will not go to prison? He has no license, and he caused such a serious traffic accident.
Were you hoping that he’d walk away as a free man? Did you know that the fourth person just died in the
hospital? This accident caused four deaths. These people have parents and families. If you don’t think
that Tate deserves to be put in prison, do you think that those people deserved to die?”

Helen was left tongue-tied. She took a while to respond. “But… That’s your cousin we’re talking about…”
she whispered.

“What’s the big deal? Those people out there lost their daughters and sons. Wouldn’t they be more
emotionally impacted? How many times do you want me to repeat my words, Mom? You need to keep
an eye on Tate, or he might get into trouble. You guys didn’t seem to be any more alert even after his
previous incident. Since you guys aren’t capable of caring for him, then you might as well let him go to
prison! At least someone will teach him something there!”

Tears gathered in Helen’s eyes. “Your Aunt Chloe only has one son. If he goes to prison… How’s Chloe
going to live after that?”

“There’s an old couple standing outside. They only had their daughter when they were in their forties.
The girl passed away on the spot after Tate’s bike slammed into hers. If you want to talk about suffering,



who do you think is the one suffering more here?” Sasha hissed.

Helen was at a loss for words after that. Sasha sat by the edge of the bed as she continued to speak.
“Someone like Tate deserves to learn a lesson, Mom. He’s going to cause even larger troubles
otherwise!”

Finally, Helen let out a long sigh. “Regardless, he’s still your cousin, Sasha,” she whispered after thinking
for a long while. “C-Could you at least find him a lawyer that would reduce his sentence? He can go to
prison to learn his lesson, but I’m sure a year or two in prison would be enough for that. There’s no need
to worsen the issue…”
