A: Accidentally means it was something you didn’t mean to do and that it was a mistake - “He accidentally dropped his phone.” “He accidentally walked into the wrong room.” “He accidentally locked himself out of his house.”

“Happened to” means that it happened by chance - it wasn’t a mistake; it was just a random thing that you didn’t plan. “I happened to see him.” “I happened to walk outside right when it started to rain.” “I happened to buy the winning lottery ticket.”

A: Hi Eriko, Don’t worry, You’re doing fine! As far as using the word refuse it probably the wrong usage here because it gives the feeling that the other party involved is angry. A better word to use would be declined the offer to repair my car or feel the need for my apology. If you say refused to apologize or to accept your apology sounds like they are angry. In your sentence it has the connotation that they are angry and don’t want to accept your apology. Unless you mean that they refused to accept your apology because the accident was so minor that they did not feel an apology was necessary or the necessary for any repairs to be done. Long explanation short - be careful using the word refuse. You can say as an example: They refused to accept my apology or any payment for the damages because they felt the damage was so trivial/minor that no apology or compensation was necessary. I think this last sentence is closest to your meaning using the vocabulary you chose.

A: Yeah, that makes it more clear, I know what aspiration is.

When I'm eating or drinking and something goes down the wrong pipe, I tend to catch a cold after.

I'd probably only say eating or drinking, but I'm not sure if you're talking about aspirating food or liquid, could be both too.

A: Wow. You are studying some very advanced English! I salute you! :)

The phrases "snapped out" and "made accidental" are not everyday language and can only be determined from the context of the book, that is, how they relate to other parts of the book.

I myself, a well-read native speaker of English, had to rely on searching the web for the answer. The link below is the best answer I found, and I'll also explain it.

"Snapped out" is most likely a reference back to "snapped them out with her fingers" earlier in the book, and refers to extinguishing candles by snapping or flicking one's fingers through the candle flame.

So when you read "They were gone, without a word, snapped out", it means that they left very suddenly and abruptly, as you might imagine a candle flame being suddenly and abruptly extinguished.

And the phrase "made accidental" appears to be foreshadowing, that is, a hint of what is to happen later. (There is evidently a plan coming up to make an intentional killing appear to be accidental.) So "made accidental" could also be read "as though by accident", again, giving a feeling of a sudden and abrupt change.

Whew. Hope this helped. Please feel free to ask questions and I'll do my best to answer! :)
