Chapitre 9: Meeting With Evan Robert Hudan
"Hans is in critical condition?" shrieked Luci in shock.
The car engine roared horribly. Even the exhaust emitted a lot of smoke. Anxiety welled up in its midst.
Luci called repeatedly the number that had just sent her a text message, but there was no answer from the number.
This was now the tenth phone call. The girl endlessly dialed the foreign number. Her desire to urge her was too hasty.
Luci just wanted to confirm Hans' condition in detail. But the number was not active at this time.
"The number you dialed..."
Tut!
"Damn it!" cursed her. Her rant seemed useless, while her finger was now pressing the 'end call' button.
The red light came back on. The city streets were still busy and congested. This congested street was the route most people choose, but Luci preferred another quieter route.
"I can't be stuck in traffic!" She insisted.
It was eleven PM. At a time like this, the route was usually rarely used for driving, or at 11 PM like this, the lane was rarely used by people. The reason was that the route was well-known for being haunted because there were too many accidents in that place.
But Luci didn't have time to think about that. She didn't even have time to think about her safety. She only focused on the goal which was going to the hospital.
Currently, Luci was already on that haunted road. As people often talk about, this road was very quiet and almost dead. The traffic lights seemed to signal the ghosts. Some of the signboards seemed to be placed with origin.
In the midst of all that, the traffic light suddenly turned red. Luci should have hit the brakes and stopped then. But her consciousness was gone, more precisely she had lost her focus while driving the car.
The speed she used was extremely high. Maybe she could just float the car and herself down the street. Her hands were already shaking because her mind had been drifting to and fro thinking about the fate of a boy she had raised since a year ago.
"Hans, what happened to you?" She mumbled repeatedly. She was lost in a daydream. The thing she did back then only gave her a faint realization. She didn't even realize she was driving on a haunted road, or that she was riding in a car with her own hands. The focus was messed up.
Until one moment a black car passed in front of Luci at high speed. Like the most violent racetrack, the car's roar seemed capable of detonating anything in its way. There were even sparks around the asphalt, trails that snaked through the ruts of the car.
Luci, who was also driving the car at high speed, was surprised. Reflexively her foot stepped on the brake suddenly to avoid a collision between the two cars. As a result, the hood of Luci's car almost hit the bumper of the opponent's car, which at this time was also seen applying the brakes suddenly.
Sparks were scattered on the asphalt that night. At first glance, it looked like a street fireworks show.
The car that Luci was driving was dragged down and down. The vehicle even nearly hit the road divider. But before that happened, Luci had turned the steering wheel nimbly to getaway.
Smoke billowed and a loud screeching sound was heard. The car was successfully stopped with Luci's body hitting the steering wheel.
DUG!
"Argh!" Luci groaned, her heart felt like it was going to explode. "What just happened?" She was dazed.
Her breath hitched with a confused and slightly dazed face. For a split second, she finally realized that she had just survived an accident. She took a deep breath.
"Ok, I got no injury," she mumbled quietly. Then she glanced in the rearview mirror.
A few meters behind her the car that nearly collided with her had stopped with the engine still humming softly.
As a result, Luci took off her seat belt and tried to get out of the car. She just wanted to check whether the condition of the driver or passenger in the car was safe or not.
"If someone is injured, then I am ready to take responsibility," she nodded firmly. "Because it looks like it's my fault right? I was reckless and careless."
The girl walked with her body almost feeling pain all over her body. Grimaced, "Why is my whole body so crushed and sore? I'm sure it was just my head hitting the steering wheel."
Luci was able to reach the car. There were no scuffs or dents on the front and sides.
Her eyes scanned another crevice, and still, nothing was scuffed or dented.
"Fortunately," she sighed, breathing slightly in relief. "This car is one of the luxury cars in the world, right?" She tried to remember. "Cadillac Escalade ESV with a price range of 3 billion rupiahs!" she shook her head. "I could die if I even scratched the hood and body of the car a little. The salary I have today can run out in one night."
At first, Luci was hesitant to approach and check. The girl was afraid that later she would be held accountable in the form of compensation money. But her humanity was higher. As a result, she kept going forward to check on the person in the car.
The girl didn't think anything negative at that time. She just thought the person she bumped into might have been an ordinary person she didn't know. But it turned out…..
"E-Evan Robert Hudan?" her squeak was in complete shock. How surprised Luci was when she saw Evan Robert Hudan who was lying behind the steering wheel, stumbling as if leaning there. His condition was not blistered or bleeding but his consciousness had been lost.
Who didn't know Evan Robert Hudan? He was the chairman and CEO and sole heir of Hudan Corporation whose wealth ranked number three in Asia. And now Luci had bumped into him and knocked him unconscious?
'What if he has a concussion? I'm dead,' the girl whispered in her heart. "Mister? Mister Evan?" Luci hissed timidly. Her hand moved to shake Evan's stocky shoulder to wake him up.
But Evan didn't answer. His stern face with a very pointed nose still didn't show any awareness. Not to mention that his eyes that always looked sharp during the press conference were also not open at this time.
Once again Luci shook the rich businessman's shoulder. She put her slender hands into the car and tried to unbuckle the seat belt that was still wrapped around the businessman's stomach.
When her hand was trying to grab Evan's seat belt to let it go, suddenly Evan's hand grabbed her arm.
"Who are you? What do you want?" Evan whispered. The stench of alcohol emanating from his mouth.
"I… I mean...." Luci was confused. Her arm was still in Evan's firm grip.
Finally, Luci couldn't find the words anymore because in her mind only thought that after this Evan would imprison her.
One thing that Evan was famous for besides his wealth was his firm attitude and tendency to be cruel.
He would torture and punish anyone who disturbed the peace. Luci still remembered how the news about a teenager who was imprisoned only for accidentally bumping into Evan's pet cat in the road.
The teenager hit the cat because he lost control of his bicycle. Even the teenager was also injured in the incident.
But without common sense, Evan indicted the teenager on charges of animal abuse.
Because the teenager was still under legal protection, the teenager only got a punishment in the form of social sanctions, namely cleaning the city streets for one full month.
Evan's crimes did not end there, Evan, who still held a grudge against the teenager, finally sent several people to deliberately pollute the city streets so that the teenager could get a difficult job while serving his punishment.
'How could I forget that?' whispered Luci in her heart. 'And don't tell me he wants to sue me too because I nearly caused him a traffic accident? But what I did just now got into a traffic accident, right?' Luci bit her lip because she was too scared.
Evan didn't say anything else. His sharp swooping eyes opened and closed repeatedly. Then he opened his car door and got out of the car. Luci's hand was still in his grip. Evan's face looked wistful maybe because he was under the control effect.
"You, beautiful too, *hiccup*!" Evan stopped as the hiccups hit him. His tall body staggered closer to Luci. The smell of alcohol wafted from his mouth.
Then he pulled Luci's arm so that the girl's body hit the body of his black car. Evan's tall body pressed against Luci. Meanwhile, Luci shuffled and readied her fists.
"So you. *hiccup*.. you the girl that grandma talks about? *hiccup*....." His hiccups still dominate his words.
"Yeah, *hiccup*… you're pretty *hiccup*…. You're body *hiccup*…. ah *hiccup* sexy…." Evan gave space between them. His hand waved and formed a pattern in the air to follow Luci's curves.
'Shit!' cursed the girl in her heart. But she couldn't run. All the CCTV on this street must have recorded the accident. The license plate of the car Luci was driving could be easily found. Not to mention Luci's already exposed face.
Luci was silent. She was still thinking about how she could get out of this situation. because Evan was drunk. It was possible that he wouldn't let Luci go so easily.
Then if they were involved in the slightest physical fight under CCTV, everything could be Evan's weapon to drag Luci into court.
When the girl's mind was wandering all over the place without realizing it, Evan had already moved his face and kissed her lips.
She was stunned. This was her first kiss. A kiss that she only wanted to give to Daniel – her boyfriend. But how impudently Evan had taken it without Luci's permission.
So Luci rebelled. She punched Evan in the stomach causing the rich lord to fall back.
