Chapter 1197 Encountering Rowan Luckily
"Mrs. Holt, calm down, please. I'll look for her now." Claire forcedherself to stay clinical while consoling Saskia's mother. "I'll keep youupdated.”
“Thank you in advance, Claire.” Saskia's mother wept in despair. "She'sour only child. Please help us replace her."
"OK."
After ending the call, Claire trotted downstairs while dialing Saskia'snumber, but Saskia's phone had powered off.
Without having breakfast, Claire rushed out of the living room.
"Where are you going, Claire?" Violet sat up on the couch and wasshocked by her anxiety.
Claire stopped at the door and looked back. “Aunt Violet, Saskia ranaway from home after leaving a suicide note. I'm going to replace her."With those words, Claire rushed out of the house, sat in a car, anddrove away quickly.
"Slow down! You are new to driving.”
Claire's car had roared away. Violet grumbled anxiously, “Silly girl! Howcould she end her own life for a scumbag? Hasn't she thought of herparents? She deserves a lesson."
Claire had just received her driving license. For the first time, she spedup her car to 150 miles per hour. While the car accelerated, Claireoverlooked the speed. On the way, she repeatedly wondered whereSaskia could have gone to probably.
Suddenly, an address appeared in her mind--a bistro where theyalways hung out.
Claire sped up the car again and tried to call Saskia. Unfortunately, herphone was still off.
Meanwhile, a black Volvo was running on the street from the oppositedirection. It was on 70 to 80 miles per hour. Rowan sat in the driver'sseat, wearing a white shirt. The beautiful morning sunlight fell on hishandsome face through the window.
A song was played in the car. Leaning against the seat back, he had agentle, relaxed look.
In front of a bistro, Rowan slightly turned his steering wheel to the rightto dodge an electric bicycle. Meanwhile, Claire's car headed towardsthe Volvo at a high speed.
When she returned to her senses and stepped on the brake, her car hitthe Volvo. Both stopped.
"Shoot!" Claire unbuckled the seat belt, got off, and checked thescratches on the two cars. Then she trotted to the driver's side window.“I'm sorry..." Then she saw Rowan behind the window.
Rowan didn't expect it was her, either. Seeing the panic on her faceand thinking about the speed of her car, he hurriedly pushed the dooropen and got off. "What happened?"
Claire darted at him in a panic. "It's a matter of life or death. I need toreplace her in the bistro first. Please excuse me." Then she turned aroundand ran towards the bistro.
Rowan looked up at the logo, shut the car door, and followed her inhurriedly.
The bistro was well-decorated and quiet, and a soothing song wasplayed. The light wasn't dim, and the place was small. It was notdifficult to look for someone.
Rowan followed Claire in, seeing her check on every girl and apologizerepeatedly. He could tell she was looking for someone. He strodetowards her, propping his hand on her shoulder. "Whom are youlooking for, Claire?" he asked.
"My bestie, Saskia." Claire panicked, cold sweat oozing on herforehead. "Her mother called me. She left a suicide note and ran awayfrom home." She looked around anxiously and added in a crying tone,"This is the place we often come to. I thought she would be here, but...""Calm down and think again." Rowan was rational, gripping hershoulders tightly. "Anywhere else?"
Claire's mind was jumbled. Shaking her head helplessly, she pulled outher phone with trembling hands and dialed Saskia's number again."Still off..."
“Let's go." Rowan took her hand, taking her away from the bistro."Think again. Where will she go possibly?" Then he pulled the door ofhis car open and said, "Sit in, Claire."
Claire was taken about, checking on her own car next to it.
“You are too tense to drive now.” Rowan pressed her into his car. Hequickly sat in the driver's seat. "Have you figured out where to go? I'llgive you a ride."
“The river bank." A scene suddenly appeared in her mind. Claireinstructed, "Go straight forward and turn right. There's a line of ghats.”Rowan started the engine. He had an impression of that place.
Once Saskia joked with her that jumping into the river was the best wayfor patients with depression to commit suicide because jumping off abuilding would be too painful.
The Volvo ran quickly. Rowan asked curiously, "How long have youbeen driving?"
"Two months.”
Rowan had a lingering fear as she had driven too fast earlier.
A while later, Claire finally calmed down and looked at him. "Don't youneed to go to work? It might take a long time."
"We're saving your friend's life,” Rowan answered, "I'll see patientsafter going to my hospital. Which one is more important?"
