NovelBookChapter 506: Elsewhere, Hadley slipped her phone into her pocket and continued on her way.
Toward Mayfield Road, just as she rounded the corner, a vehicle emerged quietly from behind. With her heart leaping into her throat, she tried to step aside. Though she narrowly dodged the car, her shoes slid helplessly across the snowy ground, sending her crashing down onto the cold pavement.
"Ah!" At that moment, the car behind made a quick stop.
"What's going on?" Denver, awakened by the sudden halt, peered out from the back seat.

His heart raced as he opened the door, stepping hurriedly onto the icy road, his movements unsteady.
"Mr. Moran!" the anxious driver called out behind him. "Your cane-you forgot it!" Denver's injury from the accident in Blathe hadn't fully healed, so he still needed to use a cane for a while longer.

Watching helplessly, the driver observed Denver's struggle as he managed to get Hadley into the vehicle.
"Take us to the nearest hospital, now!" "Right away, Mr. Moran."
Denver carefully looked at the figure in his arms, afraid to hold her tobn loosely and let her slip or too tightly and cause more harm.
Hadley regained consciousness quickly, stirring before they couldn even get to the hospital.

"Huh?" Confusion clouded Hadley's expression. "Denver?"
