The Missing Son of A Conglomerate

Chapter 9 - Welcome Home

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 Aurora was admitted to. Just as they were about to head to Aurora's room, they bumped into another nurse.

"Hey, can you help me give this medicine to the patient in room 205A?" the nurse asked the two undercover guards.

"Sorry, but we're in a hurry to go to room 510 to administer the medicine because it's time, and of course we can’t be late." They lied while looking at each other.

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Alright, I will give this medicine to myself.” The nurse walked away and left the two undercover guards.

They proceeded to Aurora's room and entered as nurses. Inside Aurora's room, there seemed to be no one but one guard, who was most likely sent by Mr. Kingsley. The two nurses covered their faces with masks and entered politely.

"Excuse me, we would like to conduct an examination of the patient." They informed. 

"May we have a moment alone with the patient?" One of them asked the guard.

"No, I will stay here and see what you are doing." The guard was stubborn and watched them closely.

"However, we will do something that..."

"Whatever it is, I will not leave this room." The guard interrupted the nurse without waiting for her to finish her sentence.

"Alright, if that's the case." The two nurses could only do what they were supposed to do.

They did it slowly to prolong the time and make the guard bored. The guard asked several times if it was still long and confirmed everything. Shortly after that, a ringing sound came from the guard's cell phone. The guard picked it up and read the name. He had no choice but to step aside and pick up the phone.

"Okay, let's do it."

The two guards disguised as nurses carried out their actions quickly before Aurora's guards returned. In less than five minutes, the guard returned to the room. Just then, the nurses finished cleaning up and left the room. Not forgetting, they gave a message to the guard not to disturb the patient.

"Please, let the patient rest." They closed the curtain before leaving the room.

"Alright, thank you." The guard did not raise any suspicions.

The two undercover guards managed to escape with Aurora in the medicine cabinet. They rushed out of the side door of the hospital, which was not recorded by CCTV. The other three friends were already waiting and preparing to lift Aurora into the car.

"Be careful."

"Okay, go first. We'll catch up," explained the two undercover bodyguards.

"You guys, be careful; we're waiting at the mansion."

The three friends left the hospital with Aurora in tow. Meanwhile, the other two were still hanging around the hospital to check on the conditions and tidy things up. Aurora was successfully taken to the Montague family's mansion.

"Was it natural all this time? What if they get caught?" Julian began to feel uneasy and stood back and forth around the living room.

"Everything will be fine, sir." Hale tried to calm him down.

Hale's cell phone rang, and a message appeared. Hale opened it immediately and read it carefully. The message was sent by one of the bodyguards who they sent to retrieve the kidnapping of Aurora.

"Sir, they're on their way here," Hale told Julian.

Hearing that, Julian immediately looked so happy and ran to the front door. Julian was impatient to wait for the arrival of Aurora, his lovely wife. Julian had a wide smile on his face while standing in front of the door. About ten minutes later, Julian's guard car started to be visible in front of the gate.

"Aurora," said Julian cheerfully. "Mr. Hale, please bring me Aurora's bed that we have just prepared."

"Okay, sir." Hale rushed into the house and picked up the stuff that was supposed to have been prepared before his arrival.

A guard came down and opened the back door of the car. Julian immediately ran down and yelled, "Let me take her by myself.”

Julian doesn't want anyone else to touch his wife's body. Julian stared into the car with astonishment. Finally, Julian can see Aurora's face again—someone that he loves the most. It didn't take long; Julian immediately took Aurora and took her out of the car. Julian went back up the stairs and put Aurora in the bed that Hale had prepared.

"Please, help me get her inside." Hale obeyed Julian's orders and helped him.

Julian can see Aurora's face still asleep, unconscious. Julian stopped in the middle room and kept observing Aurora. The three guards met Hale and gave her a report before they were disbanded. Julian was aware that he needed someone to take care of Aurora.

“Mr. Hale, can you call a doctor? We need to check her condition.” Julian told him in worry.

“Of course, sir. Let me call a doctor.”

Hale walked aside and called a doctor while Julian was still sitting beside Aurora’s bed. Julian held her hand and stroked it gently. Hale walked back to the middle room and waited for the doctor. Fifteen minutes later, the doctor came and started to check Aurora’s condition.

“She is getting better; soon enough, she might wake up.” The doctor informed him.

“Alright, thank you, doctor.” Julian smiled and nodded.

For the whole night, Julian was waiting for Aurora to wake up. Hale also prepared some food and everything that Julian and Aurora might need. Time passed by until midnight came, and Julian was ready to fall asleep. At that moment, Aurora’s hand started to move, and Julian could feel it.

“Aurora,” said Julian while holding his sleepiness.

Julian stood up and stroked her hair gently. Julian looked at Aurora’s face closely until her eyes finally opened. Aurora opened her eyes slowly and looked at someone in front of her. Aurora gathered her consciousness before recognizing the figure in front of her.

“Julian.”

“Yes, it’s me.” Julian smiled.

Meanwhile, Mr. Kingsley and his wife just came back to the hospital. They went into the room and talked a little to the guard. They didn’t feel anything strange until Mrs. Kingsley went into Aurora’s bed and opened the blanket.

“AURORA!!!” She screamed hysterically.
