Chapter 118After resting from the jet lag and adjusting to the weather, Aria took her grandmother and Lucas around the city.But first, they requested to visit Tanasha’s final resting place.“Grandma, brother, I will wait in the car,” Aria said. She had already been here a few times, and she wanted to give Lucas and Clara some privacy. She knew that they must have a lot to say to her mother.But after a while, Lucas followed her to the car.Aria looked at him, slightly stunned, “Why are you back so soon?”Lucas scratched his head, “I forgot to tell you, but I have been here before. I have already seen her and spoken to her. Grandma seemed to have a lot to say, so I decided to give her some privacy.”“Hmm, okay. Let us wait for her then.”There was an awkward silence in the car before Lucas cleared his throat, “Sis, I am planning on shifting our family business here. What do you think?”“You don’t want to stay in Azure anymore?”“It is just boring. You are here, and so is Grandma. I a
Chapter 117Aria was forced to stay in the hospital for a few more days before the doctors finally agreed to discharge her.“Ma’am, your body is in perfect condition, so it won’t be difficult for you to get pregnant again. You just need to maintain a positive mood and a healthy lifestyle, and you will be good to go.”Aria looked at the doctor and nodded, “Thank you, doctor. I will take your words to heart.”“Good. Mr. Hall, you can take your lovely wife home. Just make sure that she gets enough rest for the next few days, and you guys can try again.”“Thank you, doc. We will be sure to invite you to our baby shower.”The doctor laughed awkwardly as he held his nose, “Haha, it would be my honor.”Aria has always been a positive person, and despite everything she has been through in life, she has consistently looked on the bright side of things.Although she felt hurt by the fact that she had lost her baby, the doctor’s words had given her hope. She also knew that dwelling on her loss d
Chapter 116It took a while for Aria to calm down. The news had really broken her, and she could not even believe that the little creature that was growing in her was gone just like that.She hadn’t even had the chance to know if it was a boy or a girl.“Aria, please calm down. Your body has been through a lot of stress, and the doctor said that you need to stay calm if you want to make a full recovery.”Damian tried to console Aria. He did not even know if it was going to work because he himself was too broken.He was just staying strong for Aria’s sake.Aria wiped her tears and looked at Damian. She could tell that he was very hurt, and the pain he was feeling was too much. But to take care of her, he had to stay strong.“Darling, tell me who did this, and I will make them pay. They dared hurt my baby; I will not spare them.”“I…” Damian did not know what to say. Although Lucas had not said anything since the incident, he could tell who was behind everything, given how he had been b
Chapter 115Aria woke up from a coma the morning of the second day. Damian had not left the ICU, and he had been constantly monitoring her condition.When he saw her move her finger, he was excited. He looked at her face and called out, “Honey, are you awake?”Aria slowly opened her eyes, her brain slightly disoriented.When she had fully focused, the first thing she saw was Damian’s face. He was so close to her that Aria was stunned.She coughed, but she realized that her voice was very hoarse.“Water.” She spoke slowly.Although her voice was very low, Damian heard her. He poured a glass of warm water for her and helped her drink.He pressed the call button at the edge of the bed, and the doctor and the nurses came in.“Doctor, my wife just woke up. Please check on her.”The doctor looked at Aria and nodded, “Move aside. It will be good if you would leave the room and let us do our job.”Damian left the room without saying anything. Aria’s health was of utmost importance to him, so
Chapter 114In the ICU, although the doctor had said that it was advisable for Damian not to stay in the room, no one was going to stop him from being with his wife.He looked at Aria, his heart aching to the point that he felt a taste of blood in his mouth.He held her hand that had almost turned cold, and tears flowed down his face. He could not control them even if he wanted to. The pain he was feeling was too unbearable.“Aria, I truly deserve to die. Maybe I don’t really deserve your love. I claim to be your husband, and I can’t even protect you. Am I a curse to your life?”“I couldn’t keep you or our baby safe. I… I don’t know what to do. Just… just wake up and we will figure this out, okay. I promise that I will be right here. I am not going anywhere.”Lucas headed to a private base where the gang leader was being held. He was so angry, and if not for the fact that he needed information, he would have shot him a million times already.“Bring him over.” He ordered.The gang leade
Chapter 113“What is going on? Who opened fire?”The goons turned around and saw Damian holding a gun in his hands. His expression was very cold; he looked like he had just come from hell.The goons’ boss looked at Damian, his eyes wide.“You, how did you get that gun? Where is Hawk? How did you even free yourself?”Damian closed the door behind him. Aria was still inside, and he did not know when she would wake up. He did not want her to witness any bloody scenes.Damian pointed the gun and them and commanded, “You all can come to me at once. I don’t have much time.”The boss spat upon hearing that. “Young man, do you have a death wish? We are so many and you are just alone. Do you think we will be afraid of you just because you are holding a revolver?”“Boss, what do we do? If he escapes here, we will be in a lot of trouble.”“And who said anything about letting him escape. Quickly, attack him.”All the goons roared and charged at Damian. Although Damian had a gun, he couldn’t shoot
