"Hurry up and call an ambulance!"
"Everyone, get out of the way!"Everyone started to panic and tried to help Aurora. Julian, the person who was still lying under Aurora's body, immediately held her up. He looked at Aurora with a very sad face, and even Julian was crying."Don't you dare to touch my daughter!" Felicity, who looked at Julian holding Aurora, immediately gave a bluff."Let me help, Mrs." Lucas, Aurora's future husband, immediately stole the show and lifted Aurora's body from Julian's lap.Julian, who was still in deep shock and limp to see Aurora dripping with blood, let Lucas carry her out. Julian was still sitting and slumping on his own amidst the chaos of the guests. There was one person who suddenly walked up to him and gave him a glimpse, and that was Sebastian. Julian returned the gaze full of tears. However, Sebastian soon walked away.The sound of an ambulance coming in and immediately took Aurora away from the place. The entire Kingsley and Lucas family got into the ambulance, driving Aurora to the hospital. Julian just stared at her leaving from inside the house."Sir, are you alright?" Hale was already standing beside Julian and looking at Julian's face pitifully."No, I'm not okay, Mr. Hale." Julian told the truth. "I just lost a woman I care about."Julian was still staring straight at the place where the ambulance had stopped before. Hale followed the direction of Julian's gaze and realized what really happened."Mr. Julian, let's go home. I will help you to find out about Mrs. Aurora's condition." Hale tries to persuade Julian, and he invites him back home.Julian did not answer but followed the directions given by Hale. Julian returned to Montague's mansion and rested. Julian was able to sleep soundly because of the effects of the medicine that was given to him by the doctor. Meanwhile, Hale began assigning someone to observe the development of the Aurora in the hospital.Julian's cell phone ringing sound sounded and made Julian wake up. Julian grabbed his mobile phone, which was on the small table beside his bed. Julian stared at his screen and could see Sebastian's name. Without thinking, Julian immediately received the call."Hello, Mr. Kingsley. How is Aurora?" Julian opened both eyes directly and sat down, leaning on the pillow."Julian, can we meet today? I have something to say." Sebastian said it without replying to Julian's question."Okay, Mr. Kingsley. Where shall we meet?" Julian confirmed."I will send you the address later. I'm waiting for 9 o'clock this morning, Julian." Sebastian immediately hung up his phone without waiting for Julian to respond.Julian stared at the screen of his dead phone and then put it down. Julian didn't want to bother and prepared directly. Julian decided to take public transportation rather than being dropped off by a driver. Julian headed to the café near the hospital, with Sebastian’s direction."Thank you, sir." Julian got out of the taxi and immediately walked into the café.The employees in the café greeted him, but Julian's eyes immediately focused on looking for Sebastian. Julian found Sebastian's figure in the back corner of this café. Julian immediately smiled and walked up to Sebastian."Morning, Mr. Kingsley." Julian said hello first because he saw Mr. Kingsley was engrossed in playing with his mobile phone."Sit down," Sebastian said, inviting Julian to sit in an empty seat right in front of him.Julian pulled his chair slowly and sat down comfortably. A café employee approached him with a menu, and Julian immediately ordered without looking at the menu."Julian," Sebastian called as soon as the café clerk left with Julian's order.Julian immediately turned his head and paid full attention to Sebastian. Sebastian took out a brown envelope and pushed it directly toward Julian. Julian stared at the envelope before trying to grab it."Is this for me?""Yes, open it up." Sebastian assured Julian with a nod.Julian immediately opened the brown envelope and took out a piece of paper that was still neatly untouched. Julian looked at it and immediately read it in one sitting."Excuse me, sir. This is your order." A café employee came with a glass of drink and a loaf of bread that Julian had ordered."Oh, thank you." Julian said this while sliding a brown envelope that prevented the employee from placing his order."You're welcome."Finished laying, the clerk left with his body bowed. Julian ignored him because all his limbs were focused on reading the letter. The letter consisted of two sheets, so it took a little time for Julian to read everything."Why should it be now, Mr. Kingsley? Is Aurora conscious?" It was that question sentence that came out of Julian's mouth after finishing reading it."All this was her wish. Please understand, Julian." Sebastian looked sad and forced."Can I go to Aurora one more time to explain this all?" Julian begged Sebastian as he put down the letter he had finished reading."It's good if you don't meet her in this short time." Sebastian tells Julian."Why? Did something happen to Aurora?" Julian panicked and couldn’t think straight."Julian, I'm just here to ask you to sign the divorce papers. There is already Aurora's signature, so what else do you want to wait for?" Sebastian began to straighten out his topic on the direction of the letter he was carrying."Mr. Kingsley, but you know I can't possibly divorce Aurora." Julian wrinkled his forehead with a sad look on his face."Julian, please don't make things difficult with all of this. Hurry up and sign it already!" Sebastian affirmed in a fairly high tone.Julian, who saw Sebastian angry with him, couldn't help but shut up and stare at the letter. Julian was very unwilling to sign it. Julian thought so hard because he wouldn’t have to divorce Aurora."Mr. Kingsley, I'm sorry, I won't divorce Aurora." Julian looked straight and firmly at Sebastian.Sebastian closed both eyes, leaned back, and took a long breath. Suddenly, Sebastian thumped the table in front of him and looked back at Julian. Julian was shocked after his death and almost fell backwards."Hurry up and do what I say! You're not faced with a choice, Julian!" Sebastian was furious.Sebastian handed out a ballpoint pen that Julian hadn't touched before. Sebastian also grabbed Julian's hand and then forced him to ink the signature section. Julian didn't want to make things any murky and followed Sebastian's direction."Just like that, what's so difficult?" Sebastian, who had obtained Julian's signature, immediately took all the files and walked out of the café.Julian couldn't help but stare at Sebastian's departure unceremoniously without putting up a fight."Aurora, I'm sorry. I promise to fix this all soon for you." Julian cast a sharp gaze at Sebastian's back as he shot out of the café.Julian had already thought about his new plan to get Aurora back, without mercy.Julian walked out of the cafe with heavy steps and an irritated feeling. Unexpectedly by Julian, it turned out that Hale was waiting for him in his private car. Julian approached Hale and then talked to him."How did Mr. Hale know I was here?" Julian asked with confusion, especially since he went out without anyone knowing."I will always know where and where my master is." Hale replied with a smile. "Are you ready to return home?"Unexpectedly, Hale was not angry with Julian at all. Of course, Julian was his master so there was no way Hale would be angry with him. Julian had the freedom, the freedom to do anything."Thank you, Mr. Hale." Julian still seemed stiff to Hale especially since Hale was much older than him so Julian felt he had to respect him.Julian got into the car and then Hale drove the car to the Montague mansion. Hale stopped the car in front of the front door of the mansion and opened it for Julian. Julian stepped out and walked to the front door while waiting for Ha
That night, Hale set everything in motion to bring Aurora back into Julian's arms. Hale enlists the help of the other bodyguards, while Julian is just a lookout. Julian watched how they did their job from a distance. Julian was looking forward to seeing Aurora again."Everything is ready, sir." Hale told him before starting his mission."Well, if it's ready, Do it, Mr. Hale." Julian gave the last signal before everyone left."Okay, go!"Hale immediately ordered the bodyguards to head to the hospital where Aurora was being treated. Hale stayed by Julian's side so he could keep a close eye on him. Five bodyguards left and disappeared from Julian's presence. They got into the two cars that Hale had prepared earlier.The five bodyguards arrived at the hospital at a time when all the nurses were starting to go home and change shifts. Two of the three bodyguards infiltrated and pretended to be hospital nurses. Not forgetting, they checked the patient's room data to find out which room Auror
Julian looked at Aurora with teary eyes. Julian looks very happy when he sees Aurora start to open her eyes. Aurora could also clearly see that Julian, her husband, was in front of her. Julian grasped Aurora's hand tightly with a big smile."Aurora," Julian said softly. "Do you feel something? Aches or pains?"Julian wanted to make sure that Aurora was not feeling any pain anymore. Aurora was still silent and gathered all her life while feeling all her limbs. Aurora no longer felt any severe pain in any area of her body, except for her head."Julian," Aurora called in a very low voice."What's wrong, dear?" Julian got up from his position and looked at Aurora more closely while stroking Aurora's hair gently.Aurora did not answer and then raised her other hand to stroke Julian's face. Aurora smiled a little and then shed tears from her right eye. The first happy tears were dropped by Aurora. Julian immediately wiped away the tears very gently."Don't cry; now we're back together again
"Thank you," said Julian, accepting the tray containing breakfast for himself and Aurora.Aurora was still fast asleep. Aurora looked much better than before. The doctor also left some prescription drugs to reduce Aurora's pain.Julian sat beside the bed and put the tray of food on the nightstand beside Aurora. Julian gently strokes Aurora's face and wakes her up. "Aurora, dear, wake up."Aurora squirmed as soon as she felt Julian's touch and heard his voice. Aurora opened her eyes slowly and stretched her body. Julian chuckled a little at Aurora, who began to squirm. Not forgetting, Julian also helped Aurora get up and sit up with a pillow."Thank you," Aurora said softly."Anytime, dear." Julian gave her a short peck on the forehead. "Let's have breakfast.""Hm, okay." Aurora complied and nodded her head.Julian immediately picked up the bowl containing warm porridge for Aurora. Julian fed Aurora patiently and carefully. Aurora ate quite quickly and didn't feel sick. However, Aurora
Hale couldn't bring Julian and Aurora home right away. It would be dangerous for them, and they would definitely find it easier to return to terrorize the Montague mansion. So, Hale decided to detour his destination a little further and make a detour."Sir Julian and Mrs. Aurora, hold on tight." Hale tried to give an early warning."Put this on," said Julian, who helped put the seat belt on Aurora."I'm scared, Julian." Aurora whispered into Julian's ear."We'll be fine, trust me."Julian fastened his own belt and took Aurora's hand to calm her down. Julian also smiled while continuing to gently stroke the back of Aurora's hand. Meanwhile, Hale focused on driving and increased his speed.The car chasing Julian also did not give up; they continued to speed up and even almost matched the speed of his car. Not infrequently, Hale honked and overtook all the vehicles that were blocking them."Mr. Hale, get over there." Julian had an idea and told Hale to overtake and turn."Alright, sir."
Aurora, who was being held back by the man, had no choice but to stop and turn around. Aurora could see the man clearly—the man who was matched with her, Lucas."Lucas, let me go!" Aurora groaned and tried to release her wrists from Lucas' grasp."Where are you going?" Lucas asked Aurora while frowning."Let go, my wife!" Julian reprimanded him sternly and shifted back to the car door.Julian threw Lucas' hand away from Aurora. Then, Julian helped Aurora into the car. Lucas looked at Julian sharply and rebuked him before the car door closed."What did you do to Aurora, Theo?" Lucas even recognized Julian's name."None of your business." Julian replied firmly and immediately closed the door.Julian's car drove away from Lucas' presence. Meanwhile, Lucas couldn't do much, but he knew where Aurora was now. Lucas quickly grabbed his cell phone and called someone."Hello, Mrs. Kingsley. This is Lucas," Lucas greeted first once the line was connected."Mrs. Kingsley, I just met Aurora at the
The next day, Julian woke up to his cell phone ringing. Julian reached for the nightstand next to his bed and grabbed his cell phone. With both eyes still reluctant to open, Julian tried to read the caller's name."Hello," greeted Julian, who still didn't realize who was calling him."Theo, meet me at the cafe the last time we met." A familiar voice was heard by Julian's hearing senses."Mr. Kingsley?" Julian immediately opened his eyes and sat up."Yes, I'll send you the address. We met at 10 a.m. this morning," Sebastian explained without waiting for Julian's reply."Mr. Kingsley, Theo can't come now." Julian explained his condition, but Sebastian immediately switched off the phone.Julian had no choice but to listen to Sebastian's orders. Julian looked at Aurora, who was still sound asleep. Julian kissed her forehead before getting up from his bed.***"Does he want to see you?" asked Felicity, who had been eavesdropping beside Sebastian."He can't possibly refuse my request." Sebas
"Are you really the son of Lord Montague?" Sebastian, who was also surprised by the news, immediately approached Julian.Julian, who was initially silent, turned to Sebastian. Julian seems to have been unable to cover all this. Felicity, who had also given Julian an unhappy look, now began to melt."Sir, are you okay?" Hale came in a hurry and approached Julian."Mr. Hale, I'm fine. Why is Mr. Hale here?" Julian looked at Mr. Hale with a frown."I saw the police come in here, and I decided to make sure that everything was okay.""Yes, Mr. Hale, I'm fine." Julian reassured Hale and seemed to tell him to go back outside.Hale, who understood the code given by Julian, finally decided to get back into the car. Aurora was in the car, and Julian didn't want everyone here to know that."Then, if you'll excuse me," Julian said goodbye to everyone without answering Sebastian's question.Everyone gave way and let Julian out just like that. Meanwhile, Felicity approached Sebastian while staring
Julian and Hale jumped out of their car and entered the police station. Julian walked in confidently while his head was full of scenarios. Julian walked into the police workroom and stopped in the middle of the room. The head of police looked at Julian and approached him. “Sir, what can I help you with?” He inquired, focusing his gaze closely on Julian. Julian was looking back with confidence. “I want to find someone who shot Serena Cavendish.” Everyone was looking at him but didn’t really care about it. “Please, sit.” The head of police guided Julian to his table. While walking to his table, Julian looked around and tried to find someone who looked suspicious. But everyone was busy working on their table. Julian and Hale didn’t smell something strange, but they stayed alert. The policeman took a note and sat in front of Julian. “Can you explain the chronological?” “It was two days ago at night when we were having dinner,” explained Julian in detail while he gave a code to Hale t
“Hale, send five bodyguards to Serena,” Julian ordered Hale while standing from his position.“Yes, sir.” Hale accepted it without even asking the reason.Julian walked past Hale and jumped into his car, “Give me the key.”Hale gave the key, Julian turned on the engine and drove away from the parking lot, leaving Hale alone. Julian drove his car at full speed and stopped in front of Vanderbilt’s house. Julian didn’t even bother to turn off the engine and just jumped out of the car, leaving the car door open.“Where is Elijah?” Julian asked the security when they stopped Julian at the front gate. “I want to meet him.”“Have you already had an appointment with him?” The security asked like he didn’t know who Julian was.“I don’t need an appointment to meet him,” answered Julian in a stern voice. “ELIJAH, COME HERE YOU BASTARD!”“Sir, please watch your attitude!” The security reminded him and made sure Julian stayed outside.Julian snorted in annoyance and tried to push past him impatien
Serena's POVAs soon as the ambulance arrived, Julian immediately helped the nurses lift my body onto the hospital bed. They took me to the ambulance and went to the hospital immediately. During the trip, my hand continued to hold Julian's hand without daring me to let go.“Excuse me, Miss. We'll help you put the device on,” said the nurse while putting on the breathing apparatus for me.I looked at the car ceiling with my heart still beating fast. However, over time, my gaze became unfocused and my body became very calm. A few seconds later, my eyes closed, and I couldn't remember what happened after that.“Julian,” I called out when I felt my consciousness starting to return.I opened my eyes slowly and kept calling Julian's name. Julian was one of the people I remembered and the last person who accompanied me to the hospital. My vision has started to focus, and my hearing is back to normal.“Honey, do you still feel pain?”“Can you hear Papa?”The voices of Papa and Mama, aka Mr. a
Julian arrived at the restaurant where Serena and he had met. Julian was already wearing a black shirt with the top two buttons open, black trousers, and phantom shoes. Julian looked so handsome that he even managed to attract the attention of the women who were eating at the restaurant.“Where is Serena?” muttered Julian without caring about the stares of the women who tried to tease him.Right at that moment, Julian saw Serena sitting alone in the middle of the room. Serena was wearing a long white dress that showed her thighs. Julian approached her and smiled as soon as he saw her face. Serena immediately gave Julian a sweet smile and invited him to sit down.“Have you been waiting long?” Julian pulled out his chair and sat opposite Serena.“Not really,” Serena replied, looking indifferent, and then called the waiter. “Can I have the menu?”The waiter handed Serena and Julian the menu, gave them a recommendation, and wrote down their order. The waiter left with the order and menu b
“Did you send it to them?” Julian, who was walking towards the car, asked Hale.“I have, sir, and I have deactivated the number.” Hale did his job well.“Good, now we can relax for a while.” Julian sat in the back seat while unbuttoning his jacket.The car they were driving immediately slipped into the middle of a busy street. Julian picked up his tablet and opened a video to watch. Julian was sure that the journey home would take longer than expected. Hale also listened to music at a low volume during the trip to avoid distracting Julian.Arriving home, Julian went straight into his room and cleaned himself up. Tonight, he enjoyed his evening by watching movies and even bringing his tablet to the dining table. After completing all the rituals, Julian gets ready for bed. Julian stared out the window for a moment before closing the curtains.“Whose car is that?” Julian saw a Jeep parked not far from his house, while the distance between neighbors was a little far apart, so a car couldn
“Great, thanks for your cooperation.”Julian told Isadora with a big smile. Julian showed he would not lose or give in to her this time. Isadora, who looked annoyed, could do nothing but stare at him. Julian and Hale packed up and left Isadora alone again in that lonely, stuffy, and dark place.“You human asshole!” Isadora shouted before the building door closed.Julian could of course hear the screams, but he ignored them completely. Julian and Hale went straight to the office to continue their work. Hale is tasked with editing Isadora's video and sending it to the family.Hale sends Isadora's video to Felicity Kingsley with a one-time view setting. Hale also confirmed with Julian before sending it. Once it was sent, they didn't expect any reply because they knew the video was convincing enough for them and Julian made sure it couldn't be used as evidence.“Thanks, Hale,” Julian said before Hale disappeared.***On that sunny morning, the Kingsley family tried to gather their positiv
Hale's car arrived in front of the hospital and he immediately ran to open the door. Julian jumped into the car with a happy feeling. Julian made it home as the sky darkened and cars flocked home.“Sir, how did you get out?” A curious Hale broke the silence between the two of them.“I gave him a check for enough money,” Julian replied while staring straight out the window.Hale didn't answer and immediately knew that the method was effective in this condition. The two of them returned to silence until they finally arrived home. Julian immediately unbuttoned his shirt because he had been feeling hot since before. Before Julian walked towards his room, Julian stopped and looked at Hale who followed him from behind.“Tomorrow, we will visit Isadora,” Julian explained slowly so as not to be heard by others. “We will only go together.”“Yes, sir.” Hale nodded his head in understanding of the current alarming situation.Julian immediately returned to his room and cleaned up. Tonight, Julian
Julian was taken by two policemen into a car. Hale, who couldn't help him, insisted on going with Julian to the police station. However, the police detained him because they intended to search for evidence at Julian's house.“Let me come,” Hale said with emotion.“I'm sorry, but we need permission to examine this house.”Hale, who had no other choice, decided to stay at home. Hale stared at Julian's back who had disappeared in the crowd of media crews. Julian got into the police car without being able to do anything. Julian felt that the Kingsley family had gone too far for him to do something like this.The police car drove to the police station with Julian inside. Julian could only remain silent during the trip. Julian stared straight ahead without saying anything to the police officer. Julian was thinking of a plan to be free from this charge.“Get down!” A policeman opened the car door and told Julian to get off immediately.Julian obeyed without much rebellion or argument. Julian
The next day, Julian came out of the lodging room and looked at Serena's closed door. Julian walked to the door of Serena's room and intended to say goodbye. However, Julian's hand stopped when he wanted to knock on the door. Julian undid his intention because he didn't want to disturb Serena and went straight home.“Mr. Julian is going home?” asked the aunt, who was sweeping the front yard of the inn."Yes, Auntie, thank you for the reception. I'll drop by again sometime,” Julian replied politely with a big smile.“Well, Auntie will be happy if Mr. Julian can visit again.” Auntie also replied with a smile. “Be careful on the road,” she continued.Julian nodded his head and got into the car. Julian left before the sun had come up, so the roads were still very quiet. Julian drove at an average speed of 80 km/h, accompanied by soothing music.Julian decided to stop at a cafe to buy an iced Americano. After that, Julian drove home. During the trip, Julian felt a little bad, but he tried
