Chapter 1135:
The car veered onto its new course, accelerating through the night. After what felt like an eternity, Scarlette’'s
desperate wails finally softened to quiet whimpers. Alicia rocked her gently as her exhausted daughter clung to
her clothes, drifting into a restless sleep.
“I'm so sorry for ruining your evening, Mrs. Reed,” Alicia whispered, unease evident in her voice.
“A meteor shower hardly matters in comparison,” Jaida assured her. “Has Scarlette ever cried like this before?”
“Never,” Alicia replied, concern furrowing her brow. “This is the first tsince her birth.”
Their conversation faded as Scarlette sank into a deeper slumber.
Without warning, their smooth journey was abruptly interrupted, jerking to a halt.
Ellis instinctively shielded Jaida, his eyes fixed on the window. Horror transformed his features as he witnessed
the scene outside.
Following his gaze, Alicia’s breath caught at the sight—a distant bridge spanning the sea, its center crumbling
into the depths, dark smoke billowing upward. The night air split with the wail of emergency sirens.

Ice-cold dread seized every occupant of the car. That bridge had been their only route to the meteor viewing
site. If not for Scarlette’s mysterious distress, they would have been crossing that bridge— their lives claimed by
the unforgiving sea below.
“Your daughter somehow sensed the impending danger. It's beyond explanation...” Jaida whispered, her voice
tinged with shock.
Alicia drew her sleeping child closer, protective instincts surging. Could it be true? The idea defied logic, yet the
evidence lay in their salvation. The tense silence shattered as Alicia’s phone lit up with Caden’s call.
Alicia suspected that Caden had seen the accident, prompting him to check on her safety. She answered the
phone quickly.
Sure enough, Caden’s voice quivered as he asked, “Where are you?”
Alicia replied, her own voice shaking slightly, “I'm not on the bridge. Don’t worry.”
Heavy breaths filled the other end of the line. Even knowing Alicia was safe, Caden couldn't calm down.
Alicia gave him her address and urged him to come.
Caden insisted on keeping the line open.
