Charles was stunned.
Then, he said excitedly, “You know me? Young missy, how come you know me? How did you know
my name is Charles? Haha, do you know? I was really lucky today.The bus overturned, and
everyone in it was injured, but I didn’t suffer even a scratch.I must have saved the world in my
previous life!”
For the fifty-year-old to say such things, Nora couldn’t help but find it rather odd.
Many older people, even if they surfed the Internet a lot, rarely said such things in real life.She
frowned.
“Do you know who I am?”
Charles didn’t seem surprised at all.

know how dangerous it was? The bus’ brakes had suddenly failed and it was rushing straight
toward a mountain in front of us, you know! The woman in front of me was screaming the whole
time in fear, and even I thought that I was dead meat.But unexpectedly, even though the bus
overturned, I turned out fine!”
Nora frowned upon hearing his description of what had happened.
“How are you okay?”
Charles replied, “I don’t know.I was just very fortunate.The bus overturned and quite a few people
died on the spot.Did you see? You don’t even have to try saving a few of those people who were
pushed in just now…Sigh, do you know?”
His expression turned a little nostalgic.
“I am actually not a good person.Of course, I am not a bad person either.I just did some bad things
back in the day and helped some bad people in the past.Over the years, I have been devoting
myself to God.And look! Results are showing! God must have been watching over me this time,
that’s why I managed to escape…”
The more he talked, the more excited he became.He actually looked a little like he was going to cry
bitterly.He said, “After I go back, I must be even more pious.I shall donate all my money to the
church! None of the other nurses were paying attention to him.In addition, seemingly because he
had met Nora, someone who was willing to listen, he was very excited.
For him to have five million dollars, he would have had to work for thirty years! Yet! As far as she
knew, after her mother passed away, she hadn’t given those three people any more money.
So, how would Charles possibly have five million dollars in cash?! Also, why was he saying that he

come from? Were they benefit that her mother had given these people, who had worked under her
for years? But if that was the case, why didn’t Old Maddy receive any? She frowned and asked,
“Who gave you the money?”
Charles glanced at her and then chuckled.
“I can’t tell you that, young missy, I can’t.I went against my conscience for that money, so I can’ t tell
you…Sigh!”
He went against his conscience for that money…
Nora narrowed her eyes.
At this moment, the family members of the victims had all reached the hospital.
Some rushed over to the operating rooms while some rushed over to the bodies of the people, who
had been pronounced dead, and started to cry bitterly.
All of a sudden, the hospital became a mess again.
