Chapter 237: You’re Too Naive

“By the way, mom, about the car accident,”

“You haven’t told me what happened.”

She was heartbroken after my father died, so I didn’t ask her. And it’s been too long that I have almost
forgotten about it.

My mother’s expression suddenly changes. She avoids my gaze and then says, “It’s all passed. You
don’t need to know about it.”

Well, as long as she’s fine, I won’t interfere too much.

I help them to pack up the luggage. The next day is weekend, so I send them to the station.

Actually, their returning to the hometown will reduce Frances’ restriction on me. In that case, it might be
easier for me to leave him.

At the station, my mother suddenly turns around and asks me, “Jane, do you want to go with us?”

All of a sudden, I shed tears.

I know she’s worried about me. I don’t know how long it has been since I’ve gotten her attention.

But different from them, I won’t be able to leave unless Frances gets tired of me.

I shake my head and say goodbye to them in tears.

When I walk out of the station, I see Noah. He is talking to a man who seems like a “big boss”.

When he sees me, he frowns and quickly walks away.

No matter how familiar we were, we are now strangers.



I smile bitterly and take a taxi to go home. After a while, I receive Steven’s call.

“Jane, come to my home. There’s something I want to tell you.”

I hurriedly ask the driver to turn the car around and head towards Steven’s home. When I enter his
house, I see him sitting on the sofa with a serious face.

“What’s wrong?” I ask softly.

“Jane, I have a friend who is a policeman. He gave me a video. I think you should watch it.” Steven
raises his head and hands me the phone in his hand.

I can vaguely feel that it’s not good news, and that it has something to do with me.

I don’t dare to take the phone.

“Can I not watch it?” I asked cravenly.

Steven’s face darkens and he doesn’t say anything.

I bite my lip, take the phone, and play the video.

It is a surveillance video. My parents are walking across the road. Then a black Volkswagen suddenly
drives over and hits my parents.

The ground is covered in blood, and my parents are lying motionless on the ground. It looks shocking.

I feel uncomfortable to see my parents hit by a car. I take a deep breath and then ask Steven, “Why do
show me this?”

“Do you know who is driving the car?”



I shake my head.

“It’s is Frances’ driver. Is it a coincidence, or...”

Steven doesn’t finish, but it already chills me.

I can’t imagine it, so I shake my head and say, “It should be just a coincidence. Although Frances is a
bit ruthless, he doesn’t have any grudges with my parents. There’s no reason for him to do this.”

No matter how hard I think, I can’t figure out a reason for Frances to do this.

Steven chuckles and says to me, “Jane, you’re too naive. Do you really think it was by chance that
Frances hooked up with you?”
