Chapter 830: Chapter 829: Standing Up for My Granddaughter-in-law (15)

At this moment, she spoke casually, but Damian Sinclair knew that nothing was as easy as she made it sound.

To suddenly move to an unfamiliar environment and be unable to understand the language, her anxiety and confusion must have been overwhelming.

Damian Sinclair looked at her profile and asked, "What about the other things? What was the most difficult thing you encountered?"

"The most difficult thing?" Bella Acker was taken aback. There had been many difficult things over the years, but she couldn’t really pinpoint the hardest one. However, there was one incident that left a deep impression on her.

Because it was her first emotional breakdown after going abroad. Her baby girl, just a few months old, got a high fever and almost died. She sat in the hospital corridor, watching strangers come and go, with different skin and hair colors. At that time, she especially wished the man in front of her would suddenly appear by her side.

But he never showed up, and she slowly got through it by herself.

Bella Acker smiled, "There’s nothing too difficult. President Sinclair, I’m going to sleep now. You can go to the couch in the living room and have the maid bring you two blankets for the night." With that, she turned to leave.

Damian Sinclair reached out and grabbed her wrist, "I did go look for you that day."

Bella Acker paused in her steps and turned back to look at him in surprise.

Damian Sinclair looked into her eyes and continued, "My mother saw the message you sent that day. It was on that day that I told them everything."

"You went to Joyland to find me?" Bella Acker looked at him blankly, "But why didn’t I see you? I was right by the flower bed at the entrance; you should have seen me as soon as you arrived."

Damian Sinclair, holding her wrist, fell silent.

Bella Acker looked at him and after a while, she laughed, "President Sinclair, the reason we separated wasn’t just because you didn’t come find me that day. You don’t need to make excuses or lie about it. Let go of me; I need to sleep."

"I knew the problem wasn’t entirely with that, which is why I didn’t want to tell you," Damian Sinclair said. "I got into a car accident on the Second Ring Road. It made the news; haven’t you followed any of my news over these years?"

On hearing this, Bella Acker’s eyes widened in shock, "You were in a car accident?"

"Yeah. I was driving to see you, and because of traffic, I changed lanes and went against traffic, colliding with a truck. My car went off the viaduct."

The Second Ring Road viaduct is so high, yet he survived after his car went off it?

Bella Acker’s heart tightened suddenly, and Damian Sinclair said, "I lay in a hospital bed for three years, and when I woke up, I couldn’t find any information about you. No one who knew where you went would tell me your whereabouts. They were people you cared about, so I couldn’t force them. I just had to wait for you to come back. Thankfully, after five years, you finally did."

"You lay in a hospital bed for three years?" Bella Acker suddenly hearing this was utterly stunned.

She had no idea that Damian Sinclair had come to see her that day, nor did she know he had been in such a serious car accident on his way to see her. For a person to lie in a hospital bed for three years because of a car accident, what kind of an ordeal was that?

At that time... had he become a vegetative state?

And lying in a hospital bed for three years, needing to go through rehabilitation after waking up—she couldn’t even imagine how difficult and painful that process must have been.

Bella Acker stood there for a while, and then she said dazedly, "I didn’t know what happened to you..."
