Caroline looked at the dial and saw that the speed was 120, which was actu a very normal speed, not to mention the speed when she was flying a fight jet. So Caroline covered her hair and shook her head.
She asked Edwin, “What about you? Do you feel happy now?”
Edwin stared at the road in front of him and smiled. “It’s not really fun. Aft all, it’s still too slow.”
Caroline suggested, “Do you want to speed up?”
There was no speed limit here. As long as one had the ability, they could dl as fast as a plane.
However, Edwin still refused. “I think the current speed is quite good.”
He was currently carrying Caroline, so he had to ensure her safety. If he dr too fast, he would send her to the academy in a while. Then, how could he an excuse to stay longer with Caroline?
Edwin had a small idea in his mind. Then, he specially looked at the time. Seeing that he could still make it, he reduced the speed to about 110.
Caroline closed the window and shook her head while tidying her hair. “If slow down any further, I’ll still be late if something happens on the way.” There was a strange rule in Alexandria College, which was that you could a early or not, but you couldn’t be late.
Therefore, when the time was up, the guards would immediately close the school gate and not allow any students to enter.
“If I’m stopped outside the school gate, will you be responsible?”
“Alright, I’ll call Principal Brown and ask him to open the door for you personally.” Edwin laughed.
Caroline was speechless. “That’s not necessary.”
Edwin comforted her, “Don’t worry, there are very few car accidents and accidents on this road, so we can make it.”
However, reality proved that it was better not to set up flags randomly, or it would be easy to be slapped in the face.
Less than five minutes after Edwin’s words, they were stuck in the middle of the road. There was a car accident in front of them. Two heavy trucks collided and lay across the road. The two drivers were standing on the side of the road and arguing.
Caroline saw this funny scene and couldn’t help but look at Edwin. “So, should I say that you jinxed it or that you shot a boomerang?”
Edwin’s expression was a little ugly. He did not expect that they would encounter such a small probability.
However, the two trucks had somehow collided and blocked the entire three-lane road.
He looked at the time. There were about 11 minutes left before the closing of Alexandria College. If they were stuck here, she wouldn’t be able to make it i] time.
Edwin took out his cell phone and called Oleg. ‘Go and ask what happened. Since the car didn’t flip over, it means that the crash wasn’t very serious. Tel them to move the car to the emergency lane quickly and then fight.”
Oleg hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth. “They didn’t move the vehicle because they were waiting for the insurance company to come ar verify the cause of the accident and the damage to the vehicle. Only then can they claim compensation from the insurance company.”
This was especially true for heavy-duty trucks like this. Even the smallest on the truck was not cheap. If the driver did not take out insurance and paid the repairs himself, the driver would not be able to pay for it even if he took all his salary. Then, no one would drive the truck anymore.
Therefore, the drivers had no choice.
Edwin was a little impatient. “The Anderson family will pay for their repairs. Tell them to move the car quickly.”
Oleg replied, “Okay.” Then he got out of the car to negotiate with the two drivers.
The two truck drivers were originally arguing, but they were suddenly interrupted. This person even said that he would compensate them. The two them looked at each other and looked at the luxury car behind Oleg. They immediately had a plan in their hearts.
“Our vehicle was seriously damaged, so we have to pay a lot of money. If you want to bypass the insurance company, you can talk to us. Pay the two of us each 100,000 yuan. As long as the money is in our account, we can immediatel move the car away for you.”
100,000 yuan was more than enough to buy a new car, let alone repair it. Thes• two people were really daring.
However, Oleg was very experienced in dealing with such matters, so he was not intimidated by them at all. “Since we said that we would help you pay for the repair fees, don’t worry. We will pay according to the repair bill. I guarante that there won’t be a single cent more or less.’
The implication was that he wanted them to give up on extorting him..
