Chapter 283: Lay Low
It might really be just her good luck.
Morgan was lifted onto a stretcher, and when the doctor saw his injuries, his furrowed brow deepened. The doctor was about to start giving Morgan first aid to buy some time when he saw Wyatt push Yunice forward and say, “Treat her first.”
The doctor took a quick glance at Yunice and saw that she was still standing. However, this didn’t mean she was unscathed, because many car accidents involved people who looked unharmed but were actually suffering from internal bleeding, which was a more complicated situation to deal with.
Ignoring Morgan for the moment, the doctor checked Yunice and confirmed that she didn’t have any serious injuries. Just as he was about to turn back to attend to Morgan, Yunice grabbed his arm. “Can I use your equipment?” she asked.
Jordan quickly explained, “She’s also a professional doctor. If she damages any of your equipment, we’ll compensate you.”
Once Yunice got permission to use the equipment, she pulled Wyatt over and personally checked him. She lifted his clothes and looked inside, noticing a few superficial injuries, but nothing serious.
As she treated him, Yunice asked, “How did you get here so quickly? Were you following me?”
It had only been two minutes. Unless Wyatt had been chasing her since she was brought up the mountain by Morgan, it wasn’t possible for him to have caught up so fast.
“I was following you?” Wyatt raised an eyebrow, as if he thought she was following him.
Wyatt then asked, “Why did you come to the racetrack?”
Yunice glanced at his abrasions without looking up. “I received an invitation from a patient to come and treat them.”
“The patient never showed up, but I met Mr. Morgan. A few words with him didn’t make him happy, so he dragged me into the car and tried to scare me.”
Wyatt asked, “What patient?”
Yunice replied, “I’m just as curious about the patient. When I get my number back, will you help me check?”
Wyatt lowered his eyes and saw that Yunice had already bandaged his arm. However, she didn’t immediately let go. Instead, she tenderly ran her fingers over the bracelet on his wrist.
Yunice gave a small smile and didn’t even bother to look at it. Wyatt didn’t respond to her anymore. He thought she was just being kind so she could touch her father’s bracelet.
Meanwhile, Mary and Elianna had been waiting at the hospital for a while. She couldn’t get through to Morgan or Wyatt on the phone and had a bad feeling that something must have happened. Wyatt didn’t let Yunice out of the car. He followed the stretcher with Morgan toward the emergency room.
Outside the emergency room, Mary almost fainted from the stress. She was desperate to follow Morgan’s bed, but the emergency room staff stopped her at the door.
That was when Mary grabbed Wyatt, crying as she asked, “What’s going on? I asked you to find him, not to chase him! Look at his injuries…”
Wyatt looked coldly at her in response.
Elianna, sensing the tension, quickly stepped in to smooth things over. “Grandma, this isn’t Wyatt’s fault. Morgan insisted on racing cars, and how many people who race cars don’t end up in trouble?”
Mary didn’t say anything, unsure whether she was mad at Wyatt or someone else.
Wyatt saw this and coldly said, “If you want to keep pampering him, keep doing it.”
After saying that, Wyatt turned and walked away without another word. Mary froze, not expecting him to actually leave. She instinctively leaned forward, as if to stop him. In the end, she couldn’t bring herself to stop him and let Wyatt walk away.
Elianna defended Wyatt. “Grandma, how can you blame Wyatt? Morgan’s the one who’s at fault; Wyatt’s already done a lot for him. Look at what a mess it’s causing now.”
Mary frowned, realizing she was partly at fault but still grumbled, “He’s pulling further and further away from us.”
Elianna muttered, “No matter how much you do for someone, it’s never enough. How many times has Wyatt cleaned up after Morgan? Every time, he does it without even thinking about it.”
Elianna then let go of the wheelchair and said, “You contact your son and daughter-in-law. I’m going to see Wyatt.”
Mary sighed but didn’t stop Elianna.
Meanwhile, Yunice had just been transferred from the ambulance to Wyatt’s car. Jordan informed her that Wyatt had warned Morgan’s friends that no one would mention her being with Morgan today.

Chapter 283: Lay Low
With her current position, she wasn’t capable of clearing things up for herself, so her revenge strategy had to rely on outside forces or, as today, staying in the background.
Wyatt was undoubtedly a great support, but the more she used him, the more others might think she was making trouble. Yunice decided that after this, she would lay low for a while.
