Chapter 12 Taylor's car had collided with a large cement pillar on the roadside. The rear end was almost completely deformed. It looked more severe than Jerome's car.

At this moment, an ambulance siren could be heard.

Soon, paramedics lifted Taylor out of the car.

“He has no obvious external injuries and no signs of fractures. We suspect that he lost consciousness due to the airbag’s impact...” Hearing the paramedic’s words, Mikayla breathed a sigh of relief.

At the stime, she found it strange. Why did Taylor and Jerhate each other so much? Were they willing to risk their own lives just because they were business rivals? When Mikayla and Jercout of the police station, the sky outside had turned dark.

They heard that Taylor had regained consciousness. He didn’t suffer any serious injuries. He simply had a slight concussion from hitting his head on the steering wheel. He would need a few days of rest in the hospital.

Surprisingly, neither Taylor nor Jerinsisted on holding the other accountable for today’s incident. They were willing to take responsibility for what they did.

Since the accident occurred on a wide road with few cars, and they didn’t cause damage to other vehicles, the police didn’t pursue the matter further.

Mikayla wanted to ask Jerabout his relationship with Taylor, but jerremained cold-faced. Sensing his reluctance, she suppressed her curiosity.

Mike arrived at the entrance in his car.

Mikayla said, “I won't bother you guys. I'll grab a cab.” Jerwas occupied with various matters. He rarely went home. She thought he must have a lot more to deal with after what happened today.

However, Jerflashed her a cold face after hearing her considerate words.

“You think you haven't caused enough trouble yet? Do you want to get into more trouble? Ch 17 Mikayla was confused. “What do you mean?” Jerresponded with a cold sneer.

Realization dawned on Mikayla. “I am serious about the divorce! Colliding with Taylor's car was merely an accident.” “How did Taylor know you? Did you announce your identity the moment you saw him?” It was too complicated. Even if Mikayla explained it, Jerwouldn't believe her anyway Mikayla didn’t want to waste her breath.

“It’s my fault for causing you trouble today. Next time, you don’t have to bother. | can handle it myself.” Jerome's face darkened. “Do you mean there will be a next time?” “Mr. Miller, Mrs. Miller, it's quite late now. Both of you must be tired. How about I take you back to the villa for srest?” Mike interrupted them at the right time. He then opened the back door.

Ignoring Jerome, Mikayla went straight to the passenger seat.

Jerstood there unmoving.

Observing the gloomy expression on his boss’ face, Mike decided to play dumb. He was just an assistant. He couldn't solve such a difficult problem.

Jereventually got into the car. The atmosphere immediately turned tense.

Taking the driver's seat, Mike felt a freeze settling in, reminiscent of an ice cellar. In an effort to warm things up, he decided to engage Mikayla in conversation “Mrs. Miller, my mom likes the aromatherapy essential oil you gavelast time. Her sleep has improved a lot.” In the past, Mikayla often gave gifts to Jerome's assistants and secretaries in an attempt to learn more about him.

Mike usually declined. But he accepted the aromatherapy essential oil she had crafted last time.

Mikayla smiled. “I'll make smore for your mother another day.” “Thank you, Mrs. Miller.” Jersneered. “You put in so much effort to please everyone, yet you claim the divorce is serious.

“It’s up to you whether to believe. Rest assured, | will never try to please you again.” Jerscoffed. “Who cares?” Soon, they arrived at Dragoncrest Villa. Mikayla got out of the car. Ignoring Jerome, she went straight into the house.

“Sir, you're back.” Just as Mikayla poured herself a glass of water, she heard Jerentering.

Amy suddenly exclaimed, “Sir, how did you get injured?” Mikayla turned around.

Jerhad his sleeves rolled up, exposing numerous scratches on his arms. The swollen and bruised injuries appeared somewhat alarming- “Why didn’t you say you were injured? Do they hurt a lot?” Mikayla quickly approached Jerand anxiously took his arm.

He must have gotten injured when he tried to protect her.

Jerstared at her expressionlessly.

Instantly, Mikayla realized what she was doing.

She hastily let go of Jereome’s arm and took a step back. At the stime, a touch of bitterness filled her heart.

She had loved Jerfor eight years. It was a habit for her to feet concern for him. As soon as she heard he was injured, her body reacted reflexively.

Jerfelt displeased seeing Mikayla retracting her hand so quickly. “What do you think? “Apply sointment if they hurt.” After saying that, Mikayla was about to go downstairs, but Jerheld her back.
