Chapter 476: Chapter 476: Past Life, Present Life
He instinctively flinched, turning to run, but quickly realized that he was now in a semi-transparent state, floating in the air.
However, at that moment, the large truck had already rushed forward, directly hitting a slender figure on the ground.
The frail person was immediately thrown into the air, face up, appearing as if just asleep.
But there was a lot of dark-colored blood flowing behind the head.
The one lying on the ground was none other than Ashley Shaw!
Looking again at the truck, it had already sped away.
But from his angle, he could clearly see the face of the driver in the seat.
The driver looked sinister and composed, as if this accident had been long planned.
The next instant, it was like he was suddenly pulled into another space, with countless scenes fast-forwarding in front of his eyes.
Until he saw "himself" on the ground standing in front of a huge device that looked like a large satellite.
A sudden dazzling light appeared before his eyes, and in an instant, countless fragments of memory surged into his mind.
In this life, the "past life," gradually piecing together a complete Warren Prescott.
Warren Prescott was startled and suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that he was still lying on the dormitory bed.
He was panting heavily, and drops of cold sweat were trickling down his forehead onto his face.
His face was filled with terror, but soon he calmed down, displaying a maturity beyond his years.
Upon closer inspection, one would notice that his eyes seemed much deeper than before.
The phone rang at that moment—it was a call from Assistant Lowell.
He pressed the answer key.
"Speak."
Assistant Lowell said over the phone, "I have found out about Miss Lynch’s situation, it’s just... it’s just..."
Warren Prescott got out of bed, expressionless: "She’s with another man?"
Assistant Lowell was surprised: "How did you know?"
"Based on my understanding of her."
"You’re really smart! Remember Curtis Bowen? She’s with that old man now! Because of her, Curtis Bowen is now in a divorce lawsuit with his wife..."
"Alright, I got it, go deal with other things. There’s no need to bother with Rosalind Lynch."
Assistant Lowell initially planned to gossip with Warren Prescott for a bit—Warren had become much more talkative and enjoyed hearing gossip after his amnesia.
But what’s up with today?
Could it be exhaustion?
He dared not waste any more time, quickly hung up the phone, and then pressed the office intercom, calling someone in.
"Get ready, let’s have a meeting. The survival show has lost its buzz, we can plan to wrap it up early."
"Yes."
...
The Medical University.
Ashley Shaw returned to the dormitory, and Jocelyn Hayes immediately told her about Evelyn Vaughn’s attempt to sow discord.
After speaking, she stood with her hands on her hips, extremely angry.
"I’ve never seen anyone so shameless! Do they really think I’m the petty kind? Just because you didn’t take me to meet your high school friends, I’d fall out with you? Then what kind of friends are we?"
Ashley Shaw felt both warm and angry inside.
Warm because of Jocelyn, angry because of Evelyn Vaughn.
She always adhered to the principle of not offending if not offended, but Evelyn Vaughn was really disgusting.
She reminded her of Rosalind Lynch.
"No need to be mad at such people. Besides, she’s definitely angrier than you now. After all, she’s the one who got hit. If it were you, wouldn’t you be mad?"
Thinking of this, Jocelyn became happier.
Ashley Shaw continued, "However, hitting people is still wrong. If it really becomes a big deal, the one who started it will definitely not be in the right. So bear with it in the future. If it gets too much, just tell me, and I’ll help you deal with her."
Jocelyn asked in surprise, "You know how to deal with people?"
Ashley thought to herself: Of course, or else wouldn’t she be wasting the extra life she’s lived?
But on the surface, she said, "Whether I do or not depends on whether they provoke me. Even a rabbit bites when cornered."
Jocelyn wanted to say that it shouldn’t be so troublesome, just a slap, but then Ashley said, "It’s okay to hit someone, but don’t forget, if it blows up, it’s no good for your mom or your grandpa. Just think about Noelle York’s outcome."
Only then did Jocelyn get convinced.
"I won’t lay hands anymore, just words. Words aren’t illegal, right?"
"Not illegal. Besides, with the four of us, are we really going to lose to one Evelyn Vaughn?"
"That’s true..."
Jocelyn said while hugging Ashley’s arm, "Did you bring the cake I asked you guys to?"
"Brought it!" Ariana Grant took out three cakes from the bag.
The one that looked like a Shaun the Sheep cake was unanimously disliked, and eventually, only Ashley Shaw could eat it—throwing it away would be too wasteful.
Though it looked ugly, it cost 88 yuan!
Ariana ate the cake and went back to her dormitory.
Leaving with reluctance, but there was no choice.
She could only study hard so she could join the same hospital as Ashley Shaw in the future, and they might be together forever.
However, before leaving, she shared some good news with Ashley.
Mark had secretly told her that after the National Day holiday, the wilderness survival show would end, meaning that in two weeks, Leon Zeller would be back.
These words couldn’t be spoken in the dormitory, so Ashley Shaw just secretly signaled Ariana with her eyes.
What she meant to convey was "congratulations," but Ariana interpreted it as "keep up with the diet."
So after returning, Ariana did several push-ups in her dormitory...
Meanwhile, in Ashley Shaw’s dorm, Jocelyn Hayes received a call from Jensen Hayes.
She responded with a serious "Oh," then said, "Then I’ll bring Ashley and the others along."
After a few more words, Jocelyn hung up and turned to tell Ashley about Jensen’s invitation to dinner tomorrow.
Surprisingly, Ashley waved her hand to refuse.
"You guys go, classes officially start tomorrow, and I want to focus on studying."
Jocelyn blurted out, "How could that be?!"
Seeing Ashley’s perplexed look, she quickly added out of guilt, "I just promised my brother, and he might have already reserved the restaurant by now. It’s a music restaurant, opened by a friend of his... Just newly opened, so it’s hard to get a table. Ashley, you should come! We’ll come back right after eating, okay?"
Ashley nodded, "Alright, we’ll make it quick."
"Oh yeah! I’ll let Ariana know... Oh right, Lynn, you should come too!"
Lynn Redding shook her head firmly, "I really can’t make it tomorrow night. I’ve scheduled a game with my team, and starting tomorrow, the game points will be doubled... I really can’t go!"
Jocelyn focused on Ashley, didn’t insist after hearing Lynn’s reply, and simply said, "I’ll pack some for you then... Oh, by the way, if Evelyn Vaughn comes to you saying that we three didn’t bring you along, you should just give her a big slap!"
Lynn laughed so hard she clutched her belly, "Alright, alright, I’ll even record it to show you."
