At Evelyn's house, Maverick was silent and could not make a sound.
"Maverick," Evelyn called softly.
"Hmmm," said Maverick, who was still concentrating on driving.
"Hmmm, are you..."
"Let's stop by there first!"
Maverick invited Evelyn to stop by a small café in a row of shophouses along the road they travelled.
Evelyn just complied. She said it would be better than the two of them talking while Maverick was driving the car. It could jeopardise both of their safety if Maverick were not concentrating.
By now, they were facing each other in the corner of the café. With two glasses of juice each.
"I'm sorry, Evelyn. I'm sorry, as big as the mountains in this world. I-I don't dislike you. But..."
Maverick let out a long sigh before continuing his sentence because he found it difficult to convey something related to Evelyn—the hallucinatory princess.
Evelyn was still silent. She did not respond or a
Xavier drove his car to the place specified by Julian. He also asked the Captain to follow the GPS that he sent through his mobile phone.They had already discussed the plans and strategies beforehand. So, the Captain just followed the next step in place."I hope I'm not too late," Xavier said hopefully. He did not want to leave the hospital. Because the condition of his parents, who were there, was also not in good condition. But Xavier must be able to make a choice, which one he should do at this time.Now Xavier drove his car through small alleyways he had never travelled. He only followed the location map's direction, which Julian had sent a few minutes ago.[Ring!][Mr Xavier needs weapons or powers for the mission]"Huh! I need everything; how?"[Options within 5 seconds]"Sigh!!! All right, I need a weapon!"[Ring!][Processing of weapon unification with acceptance]1%15%30%45
The situation inside the building was not far from where Xavier was."We'll make sure he comes or not because the situation at the hospital also requires that he can't possibly leave his parents there."It turns out that all the chaos in the hospital, especially to Ajax and Emma, was the work of Julian and his friends. Who deliberately threw a tantrum so Xavier failed to come to the transaction.They were wrong. Because, in reality, at this moment, Xavier was already outside the building where they were gathered."Boss, the bastard is no longer in the hospital!""You mean he already came here?""Could be, Boss," replied Julian's men."That's it; let's all get ready!""Okay, boss!"They finally positioned themselves according to the formation planned from the beginning to face Xavier.Meanwhile, in a room in one of the nearby buildings, someone was observing all their actions using small binoculars. But of course,
In the hospital, Chaos broke out again in the ICU room. Doctors and nurses were pacing in and out of the glass-enclosed ICU room with only one patient. So, the two glass rooms in the ICU are not doing well.The bodies of both patients refused to allow the drugs to enter their bodies shortly. The medicine was intended to cleanse the patients' blood of the toxins already entering their bodies. Meanwhile, three boxes of blood bags had already been used up."How is Doctor?" asked the nurse attending to the patient.Currently, nurses and doctors are in Emma's room. On the other side was the glass room where Ajax was."We can't continue the blood transfusion. It seems like their bodies are rejecting the blood from outside!" the Doctor exclaimed, asking the nurse to remove the tube used for the blood transfusion."But if there is no new blood, their blood will be contaminated with toxins and freeze quickly."The Doctor did not respond to the words
Tet! Tet! Tet!The heart rate detection sound was normal. There is nothing to worry about. The infusion hose has also been set to the proper flow. Not too fast or too slow. Oxygen hoses have also been installed in both nostrils of the patient.At the bedside, an adult male was waiting for the patient. The Doctor had just finished treating him. He looked at how the patient was doing with an admiring gaze."You are still very young, Xavier. You shouldn't be weak. I know you are strong. You can wake up quickly from your current state."It turned out that the patient was Xavier, who was in a state of unconsciousness. At the same time, the adult male is the Captain. Who continued to accompany Xavier when he came to the location determined by Julian.After the explosion, the Captain immediately jumped to Xavier's place because the smoke that was blown up in the building was toxic.Fortunately, the Captain had a special mask with him. So he did not
"That's what I wanted to ask earlier. He's not in trouble, right?""No idea. For a few days, since the playground, he never complained about anything. He also didn't say anything or any problems.""That's fine then. Let's go to his house tomorrow morning.""Hmm.""You drop me off!""Eh, why me."Click!Ophelia disconnected the call without waiting for Zamir to finish speaking. She didn't want her cousin to refuse her request. Because there was no way she could come to Xavier's house on her own.***At Zamir's house."Pooh, this Ophelia! I haven't even finished talking yet. What's wrong with her?"Zamir was annoyed with Ophelia's attitude, who did not want to be denied his request. Even though Zamir only wanted to say he would invite Maverick or Eren."Sigh!!! I'll go to sleep."Finally, Zamir ignored his feelings of annoyance towards Ophelia. He wanted to get some sleep. So that tomorrow he co
It turned out that the ICU room was empty. Even the gurney where Ajax was treated was occupied by another patient."Where's Papa?"Xavier then asked the two officers guarding him to find a nurse or doctor to ask about his father's condition."We can't help your father. Neither can your mother.""What? How could that happen to Mum and Dad?" asked Xavier in a loud shout. He couldn't accept the news of his parent's death when he wasn't around them last night. Because he was out there doing something.Finally, the doctor told us about what happened last night. They tried their best to save Ajax and Emma, but unfortunately, they could not be helped after doing all kinds of things to maintain the patient's safety."Where were you last night? We tried to contact you, but there was no answer at all. Even when we entered the operating theatre, the nurses were still trying to locate you. But still nothing."Xavier was silent. He felt guilty for
Ajax and Emma's funeral was attended by only one priest, the Captain and his two assistants who looked after Xavier, four hospital staff, Xavier's lawyer and, of course, Xavier himself as the child and family.There were no large bouquets or mourners. No grand ceremony accompanied the lowering of Xavier's parents' coffins.Only God was spoken by the priest for the spirits of the two people who had left this world first for heaven.After finishing, the priest excused himself, escorted by lawyer Xavier. Who also excused himself first. Because he also had to finish his work taking care of all the matters regarding the kiosk business and the franchise belonging to the late Ajax and Emma.The four people who were hospital staff had also left. Only Xavier and the Captain remained between the two new graves.Meanwhile, the two assistants under the Captain had already left. They were both ready outside the entrance of the funeral area."Xavier. What
Xavier said goodbye to the head maid at his house. He told them to keep up the good work. The person appointed as Ajax and Emma's kiosk and franchise company manager would still pay their salaries."Keep cooperating with the others!""Yes, young master. Be careful on the way."Of course, the head maid and the other workers are the same. They won't ask many questions, with their masters' busy lives and interests.After finishing his business at home, Xavier left immediately. He used the car at home. Because his car, and his father's, were badly damaged and were still at the garage for repairs.He has left everything related to his mother and father's business to the manager and lawyer.Now he wants to disappear from this city for a while. He was trying to figure out the purpose of his life. Because of happiness for his parents, he no longer needed it.They both no longer existed in this world. Gone was him at a time when Xavier was not
