Chapter 24 Brake Failure
“Ah, so?” Seeing that the driver is really in trouble, Sophie Sabastian can’t make things difficult, so she said, “It’s fine, anyway, I’m drinking juice tonight, I’ll drive back myself, you take care of your wife.”
The driver thanked him repeatedly, “Thank you Ms. Sophie.”
Sophie Sabastian went to the front desk to get the keys and got into the car and changed into flats that were much more comfortable for her feet.
After the car drove out of the hotel, Sophie Sabastian changed lanes and increased the speed of the car, she didn’t expect a car behind her to suddenly overtake her, she urgently stepped on the brakes, but she found that the brakes seemed to be out of order, and the car was still rushing forward.
Brake failure?
Sophie Sabastian panicked when she lost control of the car, but her reflexes were not lost. She changed lanes very quickly, and the tires and the other car narrowly missed each other, and was still speeding down the road at 60 yards per hour.
This wasn’t a highway, where you can keep changing lanes and stalling if your brakes fail, this was a highway, and in a few more kilometers you’d be in a residential area full of people.
What to do, what to do!
Sophie Sabastian’s face was as white as a sheet of paper, her soul was almost scared out of her mind, one hand was holding the steering wheel steady, the other hand was rummaging around in her bag, and she fished out her cell phone and dialed the number.
In just a few seconds, the other party connected, and said in a low voice: “What is it?”
“Wilson, the brakes on my car seem to be failing.” Panicked, Sophie Sabastian had no idea that she had dialed the wrong number or that the other party was Leonardo Cooper, and shivering, she said, “I’m losing control of the car.”
“Calm down and speak slowly.” On the other side, Leonardo Cooper, who was still talking to an acquaintance at the hotel, changed his face and immediately pushed back his chair and walked quickly outside: “Look where you are now and tell me.”
“I’m almost at W Road, turning right is onto the highway.”
“Don’t go to W Road, it’s crowded, get on the highway immediately.” Leonardo Cooper said, the man has already pulled open the door and bent over to get in, Trent Stone came up and asked if he wanted to go back, but was glared at by the man’s stern eyes straight back.
Geez, what’s wrong with President Cooper?
Sophie Sabastian on the other end of the phone trembling words are not complete, almost almost crying: “Good, Wilson you, you must come to me, I’m so afraid ah, hands are numb ….”
The Maybach turns a corner and rushes all the way out of the hotel, Leonardo Cooper in the driver’s seat pinches the phone, his thin lips tight.
She didn’t even seem to realize that she had dialed the wrong number and was still waiting for Wilson to rescue her!
Leonardo Cooper, afraid to hang up the phone, had been asking Sophie Sabastian about her condition, soothing her in hushed tones, telling her to let off the gas and put it in neutral to let the car slide and slow down in the highway’s emergency lane, while his own car had sped up to a hundred and twenty yards, running several red lights in a row to get on the highway.
Fortunately, it’s not a weekend or a holiday, there are very few cars on the highway, Leonardo Cooper drove a long way forward, and from a distance, he saw the license plate number of Sophie Sabastian’s car, and immediately chased after her.
After getting even with Sophie Sabastian’s car, Leonardo Cooper opened the window and turned his head to shout at her, “Sophie Sabastian!”
“San, Uncle?” Seeing that it was Leonardo Cooper, Sophie Sabastian was confused for a moment.
Leonardo Cooper’s face was gloomy.
This damn girl, did she have to call her Uncle!
“Now unbuckle your seatbelt and do as I say.” At this juncture, Leonardo Cooper was too lazy to bother with her over name calling, “Open the car door locks, and wait for me to yell at you to jump and you jump.”
“Oooh, Uncle I’m scared.” Sophie Sabastian was about to break down.
Although the speed of the car has obviously slowed down under Leonardo Cooper’s guidance, but there are still more than forty yards, in case Leonardo Cooper shouts at her to jump from the car, according to this impulse, if she does not die, her arms will also be broken ah!
Leonardo Cooper looked at her and asked in a deep voice, “Sophie Sabastian, do you believe me?”
The man’s eyes were dark brown, very beautiful, like an ancient well, letting people look at it to stabilize their minds, looking at his eyes, Sophie Sabastian seemed to be less afraid, nodding her head, “I believe.”

Sophie Sabastian seems to see him smile a little, the car suddenly reduces speed, lagging behind her car.
Sophie Sabastian was a little panicked, and before she could react, Leonardo Cooper at the back brought his car up to speed violently, grabbed the steering wheel and turned it hard.
Sophie Sabastian’s car spun out of control and crashed through the guardrail towards the forest.
Leonardo Cooper yelled at her; “Jump!”
Sophie Sabastian pushed open the left side door and jumped without hesitation, only to miss the guardrail, and her whole body followed the car as it rolled down the hill.
A hand reached out violently and grabbed her tightly.
Stunned Sophie Sabastian looked down and saw that the car had already hidden itself among the mountains and forests, followed by a loud ‘bang’, and the firelight flickered in the mountains and forests, and then died out.
