Love Worth Fighting For

Chapter 218

218 Let’s go home

“Sir, you better sit down,” Erick said quietly to Jack, who was still standing beside Christian looking at his granddaughter from behind the large glass that separated them.

Jack shook his head slowly. “I still want to stand here, Erick.”

“But you’ve been standing for more than three hours,” said Erick again. “You and young master must not be sick, Miss Elena and the baby need you.”

Jack immediately turned to Erick who had just covered his lips.

“For Miss Elena and your granddaughter, sir.” Erick spoke again in a very polite tone, Erick deliberately brought the names of Elena and the baby so that Jack obeyed.

And what Erick did worked, Jack slowly left the mirror where he had been standing for hours to join Anne and Kainer who had just received re-treatment because their wounds were bleeding again.

“Young master...”

“I still want to be here, Erick.” Christian refuses Erick’s invitation to sit down. “I still want to see my daughter.”

Erick took a deep breath. “I know, but you still have to rest your body, young master. It’s not just this baby that needs you, Miss Elena also needs you. If you are sick who will take care of Miss Elena and the baby?”

.....

Christian blinks, trying to keep the tears from falling.

“Your baby is also being watched by the nurses inside, you don’t have to worry,” said Erick again.

Hearing that, Christian finally fell, with weak steps Christian walked towards the chair in front of Elena’s treatment room which was not far from where the baby was. Before sitting down, Christian glances at the glass, which the nurse has opened again. Looking back at Elena lying helplessly on the hospital bed makes Christian speechless. Regret, regret and regret, that’s what Christian is feeling right now.

“Please have a seat, young master,” Romaria says quietly, inviting Christian to take a seat. Although very disappointed and angry with Christian for all his cruelty to Elena so far, Romaria still tries to be nice to him.

Christian doesn’t budge, his eyes still on Elena.

Not wanting to make Christian sick, Romaria finally gets up from her seat and pulls Christian to sit down. Although at first Christian tries to refuse, but in the end he obeys Romaria who uses all her strength to force Christian to sit down.

Once seated, Christian immediately closed his eyes. He recalls his last meeting with Elena three months ago when he found out Elena was pregnant, with his eyes closed Christian could remember everything he had said to Elena at that time.

“I’m sorry, Elena. I’m sorry for all my mistakes yesterday, I’m really sorry,” Christian said to himself, his right hand clenched tighter, holding two rings that Elena had never let go of his finger.

When Christian puts a diamond ring on Elena’s finger that night, Elena promises that she will never take it off. But this time, Elena instead asked Romaria to return the ring to him. It was clear that Elena had given up on him, considering that the tightness had hit Christian again.

No woman can stand a man as bad as Christian, including Elena. What Elena has done so far has been incredible, if only other women were in Elena’s position they might have given up long ago. But Elena was still able to endure to the limit of her ability until she finally gave up like she is now.

Remembering all the madness he had done to Elena made Christian shed tears again, realizing that Christian was not very well, Romaria and Bertha finally decided to leave Christian alone. They did not want to disturb the young master who was cursing his stupidity.

“I didn’t do it for you, I did it for my baby.”

“Don’t be too big-headed, Elena. I decided not to punish you anymore because of that baby, she’s the reason I don’t touch you anymore. Thank her.”

Christian touches his left chest as the strings of evil words he said to Elena replay in his head, the meanest words not fit for a man who has made a woman pregnant with his baby.

Christian slowly opened his eyes which were already so puffy from crying too much. Since knowing that Elena is not the masked girl who has made Suri suffer for years at the hands of her captors, tears of regret have never stopped falling from Christian’s beautiful blue eyes. The two eyes that he passed on to the princess who is currently also struggling to live in a separate room from Elena.

With a limp body, Christian slowly got up from the sofa where he was sitting. He walked to the mirror where he saw Elena.

“You need to get better, Elena. Not just for me, but for our baby. Our little girl, she needs you, Elena. She needs her mommy,” Christian says hoarsely, his fingers slowly moving as if he’s touching Elena. “After you wake up, I’m willing to get anything in return from you, Elena. But now, please wake up quickly. Don’t make our baby cry again like before, she’s so worried about you, Elena.”

“Hurry up, honey. Get well soon...”

Hospital control room.

“How? Is everything safe?”

“It’s safe, all the cctv in the hallway has been turned off. Likewise with the cctv going to the exit.”

“Ok... you only have fifteen minutes, move quickly and don’t make the slightest mistake.”

“Okay boss,” replied the two mysterious women who had managed to make the hospital control room operator fall asleep because of the drug they gave earlier.

The two women slowly put on the doctor’s robes that had been prepared in advance, without removing the masks that had been on their faces, the two women then walked towards the room where Elena was being treated.

The two women’s steps stopped when they arrived in front of Christian who had fallen asleep under the influence of the sleeping pills they gave earlier in the drinks that Romaria and Bertha brought, and it wasn’t just Christian who was currently fast asleep, Jack, Anne and everyone else who was sitting were in that place also fell asleep. Except for the doctor and nurse who watched Elena’s baby, they were all fast asleep.

“Let’s hurry, we don’t have long,” whispered a taller woman quietly. “We have to move quickly.”

The shorter woman nodded slowly. “Come in.”

The two of them then moved quickly to Elena’s treatment room which was not guarded by any nurses, one of the mysterious women who was a doctor moved quickly to release some equipment that was not so important from Elena’s body.

“Are you sure it won’t be dangerous?”

“Yeah, as long as we move quickly, everything will be fine.”

The taller woman took a deep breath, her hand slowly touched Elena’s cheeks, which had turned red again. It was clear that Elena’s condition was getting better. “Hi, baby..you are fine now. Let’s go home....”
