Chapter Fifteen
ROSE
' Ana would have given him my message. I hope he will not shower his anger at her. Did I do the right thing to ask her to tell Liam everything? I hope he will understand why I did this?'
She skipped her heartbeat with a sudden loud noise, " What is this? " Her face blanched.
" My phone... " Miley replied.
" It's a horrible ringtone. Shouldn't it be in a silent mood? " She was breathing in rhythms to normal her heartbeat.
" Sorry! Unknown number. " Miley pouted.
" Put it on speaker and don't say a word. " Angelina said.
Miley picked the call and it was dead silence from the other side.
" Rose, " His husky bossy voice came from its speaker.
"Liam... " She spoke with a smile and a horrible look. She was astonished at how quickly she replied to him within a second.
" Where are you? " She could feel his anger in his tone.
"I don't know. Perhaps heading out of San Francisco. It's a broad road and covered with tall trees and wood. " She confoundedly replied to him with a surge of dread inside her.
Suddenly, They heard the loud sound of the helicopter as it was flying over the head of the car.
" Helicopter? " Miley whispered from the back seat, peeping out the window upward.
Abruptly, Road was lightened up like a day.
" What the fuck is this? " Miley screamed.
" Mind your tongue, Mile. " Angelina reprimanded her.
She couldn't breathe when she saw who was standing in front of the car in the middle of the road.
" Liam," Angelina whispered in dread.
" Your husband is the hottest man. I've never seen anyone like him. " Miley smirked, pulling herself ahead.
" Thanks, I know. " She said nervously. He was looking like a gorgeous God of hell in a full black suit. She rushed her eyes around. He was with armed men and a large number of cars. She gulped the lump in her dry throat. She forgot the pain in her foot, " I'll climb out of the car. I want you to drive this car and drive as far as you can, Um I forget! Do you know how to drive? " She asked and pursed her lips tighter. Her heart was jumping against her chest.
" No use! His armed bodyguards are behind the car too. " Miley whispered.
" We're dead or worse. " Angelina said in a dreadful voice.
She looked at her. She took the gun from her lap, " I'll not let anything happen to you. You are not going back to that hell. " She assured them.
" Don't put yourself in danger. I want you to save my daughter from those monsters.* Angelina said, tears were rolling down her cheeks.
Someone opened the door. She gazed up at him. His green stormy eyes were glaring at her. She put her wounded foot out on the road. She felt the wave of pain in her foot, running upward. She gripped the car door for support. He held her upper arm and bolstered her. He stared at her hand where she was clenching a gun in her hand. She was staring at him to read his face. He beckoned his men. His man came closer toward Angelina and Miley.
" No... " She screamed and charged the gun at him. She tried to walk and groaned in pain making her forehead wrinkle.
" You can't shoot with a locked gun. " He said to her, turning on the safety of the gun, " Now shoot. " He said, adjusting his hand on it.
She knew. He knew she couldn't do this. She was assured about it. She thought threatening would stop them. Her hands were shaking. The gun fell from her hand.
" I'm not doing anything wrong. Please! Let her live her life with her daughter, " She looked at him with pleading eyes. Her hands were still quaking.
" Danny! What are you waiting for? " Liam scolded him.
" Please! No. Let them go. Hebrew will kill her. He'd... " Tears were stinging her eyes. Thinking of Angelina and Miley, tolerating his cruelty made her heartache. She was feeling pulses in her body throbbing rapidly, " Please! Don't! Don't do this. Please! " The view was getting blurry and dark before her eyes. She lost her balance. His arm wrapped around and gripped her to his chest. Lifting her head, she looked up at him. Liam's face was getting blurry in her sight. She felt as if she was falling from a height. She tried to grip him but she couldn't as her whole strength was destroyed. He tugged her gently close to his chest. Resting her head on his chest, she let the system of her body get off.
She was staggering on her feet. Her body was trembling. His arm enclosed around her shivering body. When she put her head on his chest. Reckoning, she wasn't okay. " Rose, are you okay? " He whispered with care.
When he didn't get the expected reply. He gazed down at her. Her eyes were closed and he was holding her close to his chest.
" What's wrong? " Danil asked.
He quickly glanced at his brother, his eyes bringing back at her, " Rose! " He patted her cheeks. She wasn't responding to him. He instantly picked her up and walked toward the ambulance.
" Doctor! " he shouted.
His fear turned into a reality that she'd hurt herself. A team of four doctors was already waiting for his command in an ambulance. He laid her on a structure. Simply, tension could be seen on his face. The doctor was checking her. He did not leave her hand. The doctor injected her.
" Her feet. She's injured. " He said.
The doctor removed her shoe and was going to remove her blood-soaked sock from her feet. Which was dried and glued to her deep cut.
" Do it carefully. " He said.
" It would hurt, sir. When I'll pull it out. " The doctor said.
He gritted his teeth, " If she gets hurt. I'll pull your head from your body with fifty-fold force." He gave him a warning.
Doctor face got pale white and he froze on his ground.
" I can do it, sir. "The second doctor said.
He nodded. He fished out his phone. Dialling a number, he picked it up to his ear,
" Dad! "
" I'm getting married, without delay after reaching home. Danny will arrange everything. If you wanna invite your people. You have just a few hours. "
" We're on our way. " With this, he disconnected the call.
He looked at his brother. He believed Danil would understand him. Danil smiled at him, " I should call Kairo to arrange your wedding suit. I should inform him and obviously her friends. I should go. There will be a lot of work to do." He said, moving away with him.
" Wait, Angelina! I'm offering you a job at my house staff. You can choose the school for your girl. If you don't like the job. You can leave at any time." He said to her,
Without thinking, " Sure, sir. Thank you so much, sir. " She said with tears, hugging the small girl next to her.
" Danil, " He beckoned.
" Angelina, come. We have a wedding to plan within a few hours. " Danil said with a smile.
" Sure sir, Thank you, sir. " She bowed her head and followed Danil with her daughter.
When her dressing was done on the wound. He scooped her up and stepped in the helicopter.
Putting her head in his lap, he stared at her, ' I will shackle you with this marriage. You will never think to go away from me. I will not allow it. '
She was unknowingly playing with my f****** heart who appeared from nowhere and beating for her. It hurt when she got hurt. She has to stop doing this and this marriage was the only solution.
' I can't wait for you to fall back for me. I hope. You will comprehend my love one day. I don't expect anything in exchange. I want your loyalty. That is what's important to me in this wedding.'
He made a circle with his index finger on her arm as he kept looking at her.
