Chapter 372 Accident on the Bridge\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nolan booked a ride service and asked the driver to take Scarlett back to Theron Manor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Inside the car, neither spoke a word; a heavy silence filled the space between them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Finished\u00a0<\/p>\n
As they crossed the Rivergate Bridge, Scarlett glanced toward the opposite lanes. Traffic was at a standstill, and a crowd had gathered around one particular section of the roadway.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLooks like a bad accident,\u201d Scarlett murmured, more to herself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nolan followed her gaze. \u201cSeems serious,\u201d he agreed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The crowd was too dense to make out any details of what had happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then, from across the divide, shouts pierced the air, \u201cIs anyone here a doctor? Someone\u2019s bleeding badly! The ambulance is stuck in traffic\u2013if you have medical training, please help!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
At the sound, Scarlett turned her head and met Nolan\u2019s eyes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Without a word, Nolan leaned forward and asked the driver to pull over.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once the car was stopped, he said to Scarlett, \u201cLet\u2019s go take a look.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett nodded. \u201cOkay.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
They climbed out, hurried across the lanes, and made their way toward the gathering.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nolan pushed gently through the onlookers ahead. \u201cWe\u2019re doctors\u2013please let us through.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett stayed close behind him until they reached the center of the scene.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The accident was severe. Several vehicles had collided, and one car had been shoved against the bridge railing, teetering precariously close to the edge.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A few people with minor injuries sat dazed to the side. But in the middle of it all, a woman lay on the asphalt in a widening pool of blood. Kneeling beside her, his back to them, was a man whose posture looked achingly familiar.\u00a0<\/p>\n
From behind, Scarlett thought it might be Damian\u2013though she couldn\u2019t be sure.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nolan moved immediately, crouching down beside the injured woman.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett knelt as well and placed a light hand on the man\u2019s shoulder. \u201cSir, we\u2019re doctors. Could you step aside to give her some air?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 372 Accident on the Bridge\u00a0<\/p>\n
The man turned his head. When Scarlett saw it was Damian, her breath caught.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A 62.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Finished\u00a0<\/p>\n
His eyes were filled with raw helplessness; his face was streaked with blood and etched with panic.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Seeing him like that twisted something inside her\u2013a mix of heartache and helplessness.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Until that moment, Damian had held himself together. But the instant he saw Scarlett, his composure shattered.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His eyes reddened, and a sob broke from his throat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett\u2019s own throat tightened. She gently squeezed his hand. \u201cShe\u2019s going to be okay,\u201d she whispered, though she knew she couldn\u2019t promise anything.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damian didn\u2019t speak, just stared at her as if she were an anchor in a storm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett had never seen him so vulnerable. The fear in his eyes would stay time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
with her for a long\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nearby, Nolan completed a quick assessment. \u201cScarlett,\u201d he called, his voice steady but urgent, \u201cshe\u2019s got a femoral artery hemorrhage. I need pressure now\u2013give me your sweater.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As a trained medic, Scarlett understood at once. Without hesitation, she stripped off her coat, then pulled her knit sweater over her head, leaving only a thin tank top underneath.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She ignored the chill. Folding the sweater into a thick pad, she passed it to Nolan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He took it and pressed firmly against the bleeding site on Ruth\u2019s leg.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cKeep pressure here,\u201d he told Scarlett. \u201cCheck for any other bleeding points.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett moved to help, but Damian suddenly caught her wrist.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She turned back to him. \u201cI\u2019m scared,\u201d he whispered, his voice ragged.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her heart ached anew. She placed her free hand over his. \u201cNolan\u2019s here. I\u2019m here too. We\u2019ll do everything we can.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After a moment, Damian released his grip.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett, now in only her thin top, carefully examined Ruth\u2019s torso and arms.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo other major bleeds,\u201d she reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nolan kept pressure on the wound, sweat beading on his forehead, his hands stained dark red. \u201cMonitor her pulse and breathing. Ambulance is on the way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

:\u00a0<\/p>\n
(62)\u00a0<\/p>\n
Finished\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett nodded. \u201cUnderstood.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damian watched his mother lying motionless on the cold pavement, her face growing paler by the second. A deep, cold dread settled in his chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ruth had raised him mostly alone. He\u2019d learned early that his father was good for little\u2013a man who drank, gambled, and wandered in and out of their lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But through it all, Ruth had never wavered. She\u2019d been his constant, his safety.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There were two women who mattered deeply to Damian\u2013Ruth, who gave him life and love, and Scarlett, who\u2019d once saved it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That day years ago hadn\u2019t been so different from this one\u2013a crash, chaos, and then Scarlett, still a med student at the time, kneeling in the wreckage to keep him alive.\u00a0<\/p>\n
From then on, she\u2019d held a place in his heart no one else could touch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And now here she was again, fighting to save the other most important woman in his world.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damian\u2019s heart hammered violently against his ribs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He noticed Scarlett\u2019s lips were bluish from the cold. Moving almost on instinct, he shrugged off his own coat and draped it carefully over her shoulders.\u00a0<\/p>\n
