CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again! Chapter 177
Alaric's Pov I sank to the chair beside her, my hands on my knees, my throat clenched as I watched her chest rise and fall slowly, the beep of the machine echoing in the hospital room. A part of me wanted to go back to Briovic just to hit him until he didn't ever wake up while another part was whispering about how I had failed her. How I had let her get hurt. My eyes burned with tears but I squeezed them shut. “I should have gotten to you sooner. I should have tried to pry into what was going on.” I whispered. But of course she couldn't hear me, she was still unconscious. In a coma where the doctor said she might not wake up for a while as her body was struggling to heal all the damages that had been done. “I know that I'm supposed to let you go…” My hands hovered above hers, but I didn't touch her. It felt like I didn't deserve to touch her, "I'm supposed to protect you from afar just like I used to do previously and watch you find your happiness in the hands of someone else

Alaric's Pov “It's just as I said. There has been a notification to every person who deals in the underground business not to touch the woman named Rhea Thorne as she's under the protection of one of the Seven Nights of the Underworld so no one had dared to touch her.” “Why did you?” “I owed Ginny a favour which I had to pay and I also wanted to see the woman who had an immunity from killers in the underworld. Nothing else.” My jaw clenched at his response. That immunity... I always suspected someone was watching Rhea's back from the shadows and that man from that night had already admitted to watch her, but I never thought it was one of the Seven. And now I had to ask the one question that had been burning in my chest for months. “Who was it?” I asked lowly. Briovic blinked through his swollen lids, “W… What?” I stepped forward slowly, crouching so we were eye-level, my voice cold and even, “Which one of the Seven Nights was protecting Rhea? Who was behind that warni

Alaric's Pov “Boss, Miss Rhea has been settled down in the hospital. The doctor said that currently, she's in a coma after all the damage that had been done to her body. Marcus has also been hospitalized. It was even a wonder that he held on until they got to the hospital. The doctor said the bullet missed his heart merely by a few inches but it still affected some other organs. He would have to be watched for a long period of time until he can be cleared to leave the hospital.” Nathan relayed the doctor's words to me and I nodded. It's been seven hours since Rhea and Marcus were taken to the hospital. I hadn't gone to see Rhea yet, I couldn't. It was my fault that she had gotten in danger, it was because of my negligence that Rhea had almost died. “Aren't you going to see her? The doctor said she was calling out your name before she went into a coma. If you're there, then she might be able to wake up faster.” My heart clenched. I wanted nothing more than to leave this blo

Alaric's Pov BANG! The shot rang out and slammed into his thigh. Briovic screamed like an animal who was caught in a hunter’s trap. The sound echoed off the steel walls, a high-pitched, animalistic scream that was music to my ears. “Still think I was lying?” I muttered. He rolled on the ground, clutching his bleeding leg, cursing, sputtering. “You shot me! YOU CRAZY…” Click. Another gunshot. He froze. He looked up at me with wide, bloodshot eyes. I had the gun aimed at his chest. Then click again. However, nothing came out of the gun. I didn't see the splatter of blood I expected to see nor another scream of agony I was eager to hear. He smirked weakly, “You are out of bullets.” I smiled right back, cracking my knuckles, “I don’t need bullets to kill you, Briovic.” I dropped the gun and walked towards where he had dropped the metal pipe that there was blood on and picked it up. It was the same rusted metal pipe he had used to beat Rhea and leave wounds all over her body.

Alaric's Pov “You had a few other things here and there and because you were able to avoid going to jail most of the times, you had the guts to continue doing wicked things but after a stunt you pulled with the family member of a well known family who could easily crush you with their little finger, you went into hiding. Or rather… I had asked people to capture you and hide you.” “Huh? Wait… It was you? You were the person who had me kidnapped and stashed away inside that dark house for so long?! How dare you do such a thing to me?!” “If you had stayed out obediently and without causing trouble, maybe… Just maybe, you would have been able to live out your life a little longer, however, you made a huge mistake.” I could tell that Briovic didn't understand what I was trying to tell him, but it didn't matter because I would break it down so much that even a little child would be able to understand what I was trying to say. “The family whom had been targeting you all these while, the

Alaric's Pov “Well, well… The hero has arrived to save the damsel in distress. It took you quite a while. I was beginning to think you weren't going to come and that her calling you was just a joke. It's even a wonder how she was able to get network despite what I did. Very impressive, that woman you have there. How about you give her to me? I promise I'll treat her well.” The man leered at Rhea, licking his lips and taking his eyes all over her body. I clenched my fists so tightly that my nails dug into my skin. Stay calm, Alaric. Stay calm. If you make any rash moves, Rhea is going to get hurt. “She's my wife so you can't have her.” I replied calmly, “However, if there's something else you want for an exchange, I'll give it to you and you can give me back my wife and her bodyguard. How about that?” I said slowly, my eyes glancing at Rhea for a short time before turning back to him. “Well…” He placed a finger under his child and tapped it thoughtfully, playing with the gu
