Aurora lost her composure. She got in the car despite being held back by her mother, she cannot imagine that she killed Adrian accidentally.
When she got to the hospital, it was just on time that Adrian was being wheeled into the theatre. Being a doctor in that hospital, she went into the theatre unrestrained.
Adrian was unconscious and his breath became weaker. She was glad, a trace of pulse was still left in him. It’s an emergency case. She saw his shirt was pulled off to expose his upper body.
The bullets have pierced his skin and wounded delicate parts in him. Blood was still oozing out from the hole the bullet made on his belly.
“He needs to be saved. Nothing should happen to him” Aurora stuttered. She’s fidgeting. She’s in grave danger if anything happens to Adrian.
He was running out of blood. He’d lost so much blood from the mansion until they got to the hospital. If it were some other people, they would have died already.
Santiago just stood at the corner hugging himself. From the moment he screamed Adrian’s name in fright, he hadn’t been able to say anything else.
It was not intentional, it was by accident but whether being intentional or accidental, will the Lester family let it go that the only son of that family gets murdered?
Who’s going to testify to it that Aurora didn’t mean it? None of her family members would be allowed to do so and no one else was there. Is he going to lose his friend so easily?
The red light of the theatre was on. They waited, hoping for the best when the doctors suddenly saw from the Electrocardiogram that Adrian’s heartbeat was getting faded out. He was going to die in a matter of seconds.
And then, it stopped reading, the reading became Zero. This could only mean one thing: Adrian Lester is dead.
The theatre light went out and Santiago ran to the door of the theatre followed by Jimmy and their dad.
“No Adrian, you can’t die, no, no Adrian…” they heard Aurora screaming out. But they couldn’t go in, something was wrong, they heard what she said, Adrian is dead!
The theatre door opened and two nurses held Aurora out. “No, Adrian cannot die…Santiago he’s dead, I killed him…I killed Adrian…I killed Adrian…” Aurora was sobbing.
“What!” Santiago Blake exclaimed.
Just like that, Adrian is dead? No Aurora is going to be in terrible danger, she’s still married to Adrian.
Jimmy was quiet but filled with regrets. He didn’t know that the muzzle of the pistol was not in order, he wouldn’t have placed it down leisurely. He didn’t know and did not expect that anyone would touch it.
Adrian Lester shouldn’t die by his pistol through the hands of his sister. It’s as good as he was responsible for his death. He killed that young man using the hand of his sister.
He has an explanation to make, how two bullets in his pistol got missing. It was complete when he left the base and returned, two were missing and a man was shot in his home and died.
This is going to be more complicated than he thought. And Adrian’s family will not let him die without revenge. What will follow after Adrian’s death was more tangled up than his death as a whole.
“Adrian’s death is definitely going to put the Blake family in trouble, especially you, Aurora,” Simon Blake blurted, his hands folded across his chest and his head bowed.
In New Jersey, Anna was restless. She hopes her men successfully get rid of everything that would link her to Susanna Wesley or leave any room for evidence against her.
Her health has reduced her into a mere chess. She is not the vibrant woman she used to be. She can’t help herself anymore. While still waiting, she received a call.
“Luna Wesley has obtained her freedom for a few months now and she’s going to go after us” A certain person informed.
“How? I thought it was a done deal. Who helped her?” Anna furiously demanded. Gosh! For several years she’d ensured that Luna never regained her freedom. But how, who got her out.
“She got a State pardon” the fellow replied and hung up. It’s time that he goes into hiding for a while. Things are going to be tough henceforth and he might be fetched out, his deception might be exposed.
Anna felt a cold shiver run through her spine and she went dizzy. By the time the nurse was coming to check on her again, she was lying unconsciously on the floor.
In X-city, Santiago saw the dishevelled condition of Aurora and the words she was uttering and knew she would get herself implicated longer than the law enforcement agency comes after her.
“Take Aurora home” Simon instructed, his gaze on Jimmy. Both of them were partners and gang up against Adrian. He is not ready to talk sense into Jimmy’s head but he’d done something that was capable of stripping him of his uniform.
When the Lester family makes a case with them, he’ll know the extent and the implication of what had just happened. A lieutenant in the army and doesn’t know what is expected of him?
Jimmy nodded, the kind of cold stare coming from his dad, he knew he was going to be blamed for everything that happened. His dad was also once a military man and knows the intricacies of the profession.
Inside the theatre, the doctors and nurses were getting busy, how to get Adrian’s heart beat to kick start again. They can only hope for the best for him.
