After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 169

Chapter 169 The Accident Site

He was getting closer and closer to the bridge. He stepped on the accelerator and did not notice how fast he was driving.

Clouds suddenly gathered in the sky above, and the sun shone through the cracks as if at any moment it would be covered by those dark clouds.

The weather was getting worse.

When he came to the bridge, suddenly, a place caught his eye. A hole was broken in the railing of the bridge, and a large pool of blood was visible not far ahead. He was almost out of breath with a sudden throb in his heart. Sion braked abruptly and looked at the blood. He felt his heart clenched by someone. And there was a voice in his head that kept telling him to go forward there. Thus, he opened the door, got out, and walked on. His breath stopped at the sight.

Obviously, there had been a car accident sometime before, and there were pools of blood on the ground to prove how terrible the accident had been.

Suddenly, his eyes were drawn to something else on the ground. There was a refracted light in the bloodstain. He walked to it and he was suddenly shocked as he saw it.

This was her earring!

Sion bent down to pick up the earring on the ground. The crystal stained with blood was still bright. He looked at the blood on it and shuddered.

He had a bad feeling but he refused to believe it.

Aurora was having a chip on her shoulder yesterday, saying that she would get divorced. Now that she got what she wanted. She must have gone to celebrate with Albie, who was at Broadlane Park now. He couldn't believe that her earring would have appeared here.

Sion looked at the blood in front of him and he knelt, clenching the earring tightly in his hand until it dug into his flesh.

"It can't be her."

His whisper was blown away by the wind.

But now her phone could not be reached and she did not say anything when he called Albie. Sion felt so strange. He was both worried and confused, with questions filling his heart.

He looked closely at the earring as if to confirm something, and then he sank to the floor. He had seen it many times, and there was no way he could be wrong. It was Aurora's belongings.

Sion was prostrate with grief. Scenes of her transition from youth to maturity flashed through his mind. He turned to look at the large hole in the railing and opened his mouth but no sound came out.

Sitting beside the bridge, he gazed blankly until he heard a loud noise in the distance. His eyes were filled with the anger of repentance.

The water in the river below was roaring and the wind was calm. It seemed nothing bad had happened.

Sion trembled and took out his phone. He struggled to hold it and called Aurora again.

"Sorry! The subscriber you dialled is powered off, please try again later..."

It was not answered before, but now her phone was turned off.

Sion stared at the blood on the ground and he was pale, "There was a car accident near the Rainbow Bridge. Blood all over the ground..."

"I don't know if it's her blood." He added.

Sion lowered his head and his eyes were red.

Hearing what he said, Albie's heart skipped a beat.

"Rainbow Bridge?" Albie stepped on the accelerator and said worriedly, "I'll be there in a minute."

He was driving faster and faster, his hand rubbing on the steering wheel.

The Rainbow Bridge was the only way to Broadlane Park. Albie began to worry about Aurora, who might have driven there. Did something bad happen to her? Albie was distraught at a thought of her in the accident, and that made his heart hurt. He didn't notice the cars speeding by and kept his foot on the gas. Albie had been strained all the way.

God, please...

Sion hung up the phone and called the police. He forced himself to tell all about the scene calmly. The moment he hung up, he found he was wet with sweat. Sion restrained the grief and looked up at the high bridge. Then he called David.

"Get someone to check all the cameras on the Rainbow Bridge now. I need to know what happened here."
