Chapter 264 Car Accident

"You..." Brittany was so furious she wanted to tear this insubordinate man to shreds. But she heldback her anger, dug out a hundred-dollar bill from her wallet, slapped it into Daniel's hand, andordered him, "Get going!"

"Thank you, Britty," Daniel said, pocketing the cash.

"What did you call me?"

"Britty, right?"

"Only my dad calls me that. You can’t!"

"You can call me 'Daddy' if you want. Doesn't bother me."

"You… I'll kick you to death!"

Annoyed, Brittany delivered a kick to Daniel's backside, which he didn't manage to dodge this time.

...

Brittany's family home was located in River County. Although part of New York City, River Countywas more than three hundred kilometers from central New York, and the highways were oftencongested. When they finally arrived in the town, dusk was approaching.

Daniel was driving alone in the cabin, while Brittany, full from snacks, was fast asleep in thepassenger seat. Suddenly, a Tesla in front of them swerved abruptly, veering into a ditch on the sideof the road. The car’s front end was severely damaged, and the airbags had deployed with a pop.

Seeing this, Daniel quickly stopped the Ranger Raptor by the roadside, causing the well-positionedseatbelt to dig into Brittany’s chest abruptly, which was anything but pleasant.

"What are you doing? You're hurting me!" Brittany punched Daniel, annoyed by the sudden stop.

"A car accident."

"Car accident? How do you drive? Can you even drive? On such a wide road, you manage to havean accident?"

Half-awake and not fully aware of the situation, Brittany was disinclined to investigate further. Shefound it suitable to blame this simple-minded country boy for anything that goes wrong.

"It's not me who had the accident. It's that car in front of us."

Without wasting time on explanations, Daniel quickly got out of the car and approached the wreckedTesla. The car contained two people, a father and daughter duo. The man was Liam Turner, therecently elected county mayor of River County, and his daughter was named Abigail Turner. Thesevere impact left both Liam and Abigail trapped inside the car, unable to get out.

Brittany ran over and asked, "Should we call for rescue?"

Daniel surveyed their surroundings and said, "We're on a mountain road with very few cars passingby, and it took us over an hour to get here from the county seat. Rescue might take too long. Let’stry to open the door and get them out ourselves."

"The doors are deformed. How are we supposed to open them?"

Daniel grabbed the door and pulled.

"Snap!"

The door came right off.

Brittany was astounded. "So violent!" she muttered in disbelief.

Daniel ignored her comment and quickly pulled Liam, who was jammed in the driver's seat, out ofthe vehicle. He then went around to the passenger side and extracted Abigail as well. Abigail wasokay, just a few superficial injuries. Liam, while appearing to have only suffered minor injuries, hadbecome unconscious.

Daniel took Liam’s wrist to check his pulse and soon understood what had happened. "Does yourdad have a heart condition? Did he lose control of the car when his condition acted up?"

Abigail stared at Daniel incredulously, hardly believing what she heard. "How… how did you know?"she asked.
