The Celestial General

Chapter 05

Charles’s - [P.O.V]

Death Loomed in my thirst for Blood!

Before I could kill that bastard, Drian rushed at Gilbert in anger, landing him with a punch blessed by my entire soul.

He landed a heavy punch over Mr. Gilbert's face breaking his nose instantly as Mr. Gilbert fell to the ground bleeding all body bandaged cause I earlier beat him.

"Don't you ever hurt my mother, she is my mother." Drian threatened before a security man came to beat him up and that's where I must step in.

"You and your entire family will regret that with your lives." Gilbert threatens back.

I rushed into the scene, protecting Drian.

“Beat them to death!” Mr. Gilbert said as Madam Moran confirmed with all the men rushing towards us.

"Drian, protect our mother." I said to him and he headed to her.

I raised my hand into the air as I stared at all the men in uniforms using my fingers to freeze time as everyone stared in shock.

“Kneel! And apologise until I ask you all to stop!” I ordered and all the Moran family's security men went on their knees pleading and crying for my mother's forgiveness.

"Please don't take my son's life." My distracted mother cried watching as they kept apologising to her before she stopped Stunned and confused in disbelief that she was actually being apologised to by the security men who were behind me.

"I told you… I am a supposed General!" I said to her as she cried holding her chest with a smile popping out from her tears.

“Bring my Daughter.” I ordered as Mr. Donatus, the military assistant sent by the commander brought Cena who stood before the entire family in luxurious clothes.

“Cena, I am your father, I sent my soldiers to save you, do you still remember me?” I said to her and she hugged me tightly.

“Daddy!” She said as her tears touched me and my soul flashed into her memories.

“Aunty fed me to pigs!” She cried to me.

“Which aunty?” I asked and she turned to point at her mother, Benita.

“That's your mother.” I replied to her.

“No! Mother doesn't bully me.” She cried.

“Aunty beats mother a lot and now mother cannot move again.” She said as she cried in tears, holding my hand as she dragged me past the family members till we got into a room where I met Miss. Carina.

“This is your aunty Cena, not your mum.” I said to her but she refused.

“Mother said you gave this to her.” Cena said as she revealed a necklace over Miss Carina’s neck, shocking me that instant.

Is Benita a fraud?

Is our marriage a fraud?

How is Carina Cena’s Mother?

It just dawned on me that Carina shortly went missing after my marriage with Benita and Benita informed me she was pregnant with no signs of pregnancy but with a child… So Carina has been hidden here in a coma?

They're drugging her?

I carried Carina over myself as I walked out to see Madam Moran and Benita.

“You both owe me an explanation, explain to me Benita, who really are you?” I asked disgustedly as I looked at Carina.

"How is this even possible!" My mother began to choke for air as she looked at me holding Carina shocked.

“We need to take Carina away from here and I think I'm weak too.” My mum added as she held her chest gasping for air.

"She needs her inhaler." Drian cries out, holding her as she stomps her chest.

“Oh really, Celestial General?” Madam Moran said mockingly at us.

"Don't you ever think insinuating such a title will make our family fear you, you are a nobody, my security men might be apologising because they have respect for your mother, but thank God, Mr. Gilbert is here with his security… You better attend to your mother before it's too late.” Madam madam warned as she glared at me.

I definitely won't reject good advice.

She needed the hospital now.

I called Carina with one hand and used my back to carry my mother. I ran through the mansion's slippery ground with Drian who held them diagonally as Cena held my left hand as my mother choked for her life while Mr. Donatus used a cloth to cover them from the rain till we were outside the place.

“Take Cena, find a settlement, ensure she's one hundred percent safe, have I made myself clear?” I asked.

“Yes, young master.” Mr. Donatus replied leaving with the car branded with my name, using such vehicles will invite more death threats than we are already facing.

"Mama..." I cried holding her to myself.

"Please stay alive for us." I cried as I ran through the rain.

She was my only world and I wasn't ready to lose her.

The pain could finish me... It could end me… The rain soon stops.

We entered the hospital.

My blood was dripping non stop over the floor as I felt my energy depreciating in return.

The nurses rushed to us - Taking my mother from me.

I and Drian followed them before we got stopped.

It's her doctor.

"Have you gotten the money yet?" He asked.

"I will get it." I and Drian said it at the same time.

"You both have to be fast, she needs to commence heart surgery and the money is needed for her blood transfusion or she might lose her life this time." The female doctor said and I and Drian stared at each other.

"Okay boys, I can help but you must not inform the hospital management okay." She whispers to us.

"Yes ma, what do we have to do?" I said to her.

"I will use the hospital loan money to help your mother but then you both need an additional $15,000 dollars to complete her blood transfusion, can you provide that?" She asked.

"I think there's a way I could try." I said to her and she smiled before she hugged me and Drian before she turned to leave.
