Upon reaching Marnies house, Sergio parked the car by the roadside and stated, I wont go upstairs. Have a good rest and think carefully about what I said.
Marnie snorted in irritation and exited the car.
Sergio turned the car around and headed to the company.
As he made a right turn at an intersection, a shadow of a figure flashed in front of him. Sergio reacted quickly, slamming his foot on the brakes.
The woman, still in shock, clutched her phone and fell to the ground.
When she was crossing the road, she dropped her phone. She had bent to pick it up.
However, she noticed a car approaching her before she could straighten back up. She froze like a deer caught in headlights. The car came to a screeching halt, and she was so stunned and frightened that she sat on the ground in shock.
Sergio swiftly unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car, frowning in concern. Observing the womans pale face, he asked, Did I hit you?
The woman nodded her head blankly, momentarily dazed. Then, realizing what he was asking, she shook her head quickly.
Did I hit you or not? Sergio asked.
The woman stood up, tucking her phone back into her pocket, and gingerly covered her aching stomach. No.
Dont do such a dangerous thing again. Sergio gave the woman a stern glance before returning to his car and driving away.

I was also scared.
It doesnt matter if the phone broke. You dont have to risk your life over picking it up. You could have just let it go.
I wasnt thinking clearly.

Shirleys initial reaction was driven by the fear of the cost of replacing her phone with a new one. So she rushed forward into the road.
Shirley was still shaking from fear. If she had not been that lucky and the car had hit her
Im just glad youre okay, her classmate remarked, then changed the topic. Oh, by the way, did you notice how handsome that man was?
At that time, Shirley was so rattled that she did not pay any attention to the mans appearance. I didnt notice.
Fine. Her classmate joked, Well, I could tell hes pretty rich from his car and clothes. You might have missed an opportunity to pretend you got hit and get some money out of him.
After a while, her classmate noticed Shirleys lingering paleness and asked worriedly, Shirley, are you feeling okay? Why is your face so pale? Did you actually get hit?
Shirley reassured her, No, its probably just the shock. I havent come to my senses yet.
