Chapter 281 The Accident’s Culprit

There was a cacophony of noises around me. I felt pain coursing through my entire body, and theintense. vibrations of the impact were unbearable. The screeching of brakes, the pungent smell ofdisinfectant, and the ringing phone all assaulted my senses.

I let out a startled cry, “Ah!”

‘She’s awake! She’s awake!”

I gasped heavily, feeling as though the surroundings were suffocating me.

‘Chlo, are you okay? Chlo…”

I turned to the voices and saw my mother’s tearful and anxious eyes. Lauren was by her side,supporting

her arm. My father stood nearby with red–rimmed eyes.

“Mom…”

“How do you feel, Chlo? Can you hear me?” Ivanna’s voice filled with concern.

s off and the muscles relax, the patient will experience pain in the chest

A nurse hurried in and handed a report to the doctor

“Doctor Jones, this is the blood test report for the patient. The doctors in the lab wanted you to take a

look

The older doctor took it and carefully examined the data.

Then he furrowed his brows and asked me, “Have you ever experienced dizziness, fatigue, suddenpalpitations, shortness of breath, or restlessness?

I nodded, confirming. “Yes.”

“For how long?” he inquired.

“It’s been a while. Every time I sit in a car for too long I feel this way I get sleepy, and my body feelsweak.

“I described recent incidents to him “Today was one of those times I was stuck in traffic for a long time

and felt weak and irritable.”

“Do you smoke or take any medications” he asked, mentioning two specific drug namesnovelbin

I shook my head firmly. “No.”

Atlas’s deep eyes turned to the doctor. “Doctor Jones, is there anything wrong?”

“We found traces of carbonadium in her blood. It’s a new type of chemical agent that can confuse thebody. Mild all–over fatigue, palpitations, irritability… In severe cases, it can lead to toxic reactions, and

even…death.”

Atlas’s gaze turned icy in an instant

“It won’t stay in the bloodstream for long because this substance evaporates quickly. It spreads out inthe air. It will go away after a certain time, and all symptoms will slowly disappear, too!” The doctorcontinued

to explain.

“Yes, I feel like if I get some fresh air or move around a bit, I won’t feel so drowsy anymore,” I saidsoftly.

“You mean in the car?” Atlas’s tone made me shiver when he looked at me.

His question immediately brought to mind that car air freshener.

I quickly turned to the doctor and asked, “Doctor, could this chemical come from something that

evaporates in liquid form? Like an air freshener?”

“It’s possible. It could also be in solid form, but it can evaporate in the air! he affirmed decisively.

“The car air freshener?” Lauren and I said it in unison.

Atlas’s face instantly turned as cold as ice, his lips forming a frigid curve.

He immediately turned to Dylan and commanded, “Find that bottle! Send it to the lab!”
