When she opened the car door, someone helped her immediately.
“Miss, are you okay? I’m sorry! My husband didn’t hit you on purpose, he didn’t expect you to stop… because after
the red light, there are three seconds of yellow light! If you don’t stop, it can be passed smoothly.” The woman said

Layla stood still on the ground, the rain quickly hit her face.

she pushed the woman’s hand away and strode towards the passenger seat.
She took out the umbrella on the passenger seat, and after opening the umbrella, she turned on her mobile phone
and dialed the police number.
After explaining the situation, she called the insurance company again.
“Miss, let’s go private! You see that you are fine, so you just rubbed the car for a while. I will pay for your
maintenance fee.” The woman’s husband saw that the car Layla drove was a luxury car, so his attitude was quite
friendly.
Layla was in a hurry to go back, so after a short thought, she agreed to go private.
Half an hour later, the taxi stopped in front of Eric’s house.
Layla got out of the taxi with the bag containing the vase.
The moment Layla pushed open the courtyard door, the nanny and Eric in the living room noticed her.
“Huh? Why didn’t Layla drive back?” the nanny said, ready to go out to greet her with an umbrella.
Eric also stood up from the sofa and walked towards the door.
Seeing Eric’s figure, Layla immediately quickened her pace.
“Layla, why didn’t you drive back?” The nanny walked up to Layla and took the bag from Layla’s hand, “You still
bought flowers? It’s pretty.”
“My mom’s work.” Layla covered her face with a smile, “It’s raining too much today, so I took a taxi back.”
“Oh, it’s safer to take a taxi. Don’t worry about driving by yourself! Eric has been waiting for you in the living room.”

Eric saw through her lie almost instantly: “You came back from your parents’ house by taxi? Will your parents let
you take a taxi?”
After hearing Eric’s words, the nanny suddenly realized! She even ignored that Layla came back from Foster’s
house tonight.
“Layla, what’s going on?” The nanny was anxious.
Layla changed her shoes, stood up, and took a deep breath: “I was rear-ended on the way back, and the car was
towed away. But I’m fine…”
After Eric heard the word ‘rear-end’, he immediately moved, pulled her body in front of him and looked at it
carefully.
Just looking at it, he couldn’t see any trauma.
Eric: “Did you go to the hospital for an examination?”
“I’m fine, I don’t need to be checked. It’s just that the car behind accidentally hit my car’s b-u-t-t.”
