Chapter 299 Something’s Happened
Kate gave a light “hmph,” turning her head slightly away without saying anything.
Eric looked at her helplessly. “Kate, baby, I know I was wrong. When I return, you can punish me however you want, okay?”
Kate still didn’t speak, but there was a hint of amusement in her eyes.
It was the first time she’d seen Eric like this, and she couldn’t help but want to tease him. Pouting, she turned her face away and mumbled, “No.”
“Kate, please, what do you want me to do?”
Eric’s voice, low and tinged with both helplessness and affection, carried a smile that was hard to resist.
Kate felt a jolt of excitement run through her. Eric’s words almost made her jump off the sofa!
“I …”
She stammered, her ears turning red as she glanced at Eric reproachfully.
Eric saw her reaction and couldn’t help but smile.
He was currently in a car, with Miles and Kyle in the same vehicle.
The two exchanged glances, utterly dumbfounded.
They could hardly believe what they were seeing.
Eric, usually cold, decisive, and ruthless, was now filled with affection and tenderness for Kate!

Before he could finish, his expression suddenly turned sharp!
Eric instinctively tightened his grip on the phone, and Kyle and Miles‘ faces grew serious at the same time.
Boom!
The car’s engine roared, and the driver shouted, “Boss, hold on!”
The car then accelerated sharply, shooting forward like an arrow.
Kate’s face turned pale, and she instinctively asked, “What’s happening?”
She began to worry, seeing the shaky phone screen and Eric’s now cold and stern face. His eyes had lost their tenderness and were filled with intensity.
“It’s okay, Kate.”
Eric’s voice was gentle as he replied, “We’re just shaking off some unwelcome company …
Just as he finished speaking, the car was hit violently!
The sound of the collision and the jarring movement were intense. Kate thought she even heard gunshots!
“Eric?!”
Kate screamed in panic, but the phone seemed to have been struck, and the screen went dark before quickly disconnecting.
“Eric!”
Kate was now in full–blown panic. She clutched the phone tightly and quickly redialed Eric, but no one answered. She then tried calling Miles and Kyle, but still, no one picked up!
She jumped to her feet and stumbled out of the room, shouting, “George, George!”
George, who was outside, heard the commotion and quickly turned to see Kate running toward him, her face as white as a sheet and gripping her phone in a state of panic.
