Chapter 24 - Night of chaos (2/2)

Tristan turn chilly. He's not happy with the investigation at all. Everything just came out negative. Without any lead nor clue, it is back to zero. The only one who knows about it is Alicia. Seeing how scared she was when she was found, he doesn't want to ask her anything about what happen tonight. Ralph turn silent as well. He was frustrated with the findings. Just like this, they spend their time waiting for the operation to end.

However, that quite turns chaotic when a group of men trying to barge their way into the hall. The 15 bodyguards that Tristan and Ralph put up front are now fighting against 200 men coming out of nowhere. Tristan and Ralph frowned as they both turned around and see some already made their way to them.

”Make sure no one gets in. Call more backup.” Tristan ordered to his assistant who are hiding nearby.

Tristan and Ralph didn't waste anymore time as they knocked the one who are trying to enter the operation room. It was a chaotic night and the noise start to make the people inside the operation room lose focus for a second. One of the doctor almost slips up before Rachel shouted at the doctor. They immediately focused themselves on the patient.

Farrah who went out from the operation room trying to see what happen were shocked and quickly went back in and lock the room. She was only watching from the side as Rachel operated on Alicia was stunned by what she sees just now. Knowing it was dangerous, she automatically lock the door to the operation room fearing that it would disturb the operation in progress. She wasn't scared because of the fight going on. But she was shocked to see the look in Tristan's and Ralph's eye. Anyone could tell how dangerous they were when Tristan easily slammed two opponents on the floor and Ralph punched one of the enemy like throwing a useless thrash inside the bin. It was as if she was looking into a real demon. Full of murderous and heavy aura. She just hope no one will enter this room and harm Alicia much further.

Tristan and Ralph are still looking fine but the number of unconscious people at the hallway just kept piling up. As much as they wanted to find out these people's purpose and who sent them with the enemy keep on coming at them endlessly, they knew they would be overpowered. The backup still haven't arrived and it pisses Tristan all the more. He was about to hit the forbidden button on his phone when another group came and beat the group who was making trouble with them. Ralph was confused. Tristan on the other hand finally relaxed. He knew this group. It's the people that Alicia gave her free treatment to. They're the gangster that have been watching Alicia under their leader's order.

”We're good now. They're with us.” Tristan said and start to breathe in relief. It wasn't long before all of the enemies fled and was chased by the gangster. Ralph sat down on the chair when everything is finally over. He looked like a mess while Tristan is still Tristan.

The door open, Tristan and Ralph straighten themselves up. Farrah's head poke out of the door and trying to see the situation at the moment. The hallway was full of unconscious bodies.

”Is it safe now?” She asked.

Ralph nodded.

She closed back the door and inform it to Rachel. Not long, they wheeled out Alicia so they can put her inside the room. Ralph walked up to Rachel anxiously.

”How is she?”

”The surgery was a success. But we still need to wait for her to wake up and from then we will know more.” Rachel answered. Ralph nodded his head and took out his phone to inform his family members.

Tristan didn't bother to listen as he immediately held onto Alicia's pale hand, following them as they wheeled her to the private room that was prepared for her. He did not say a thing despite someone was trying to talk to him. His eye only have her in his sight. Anything else doesn't seem to exist. How did he fall so hard for someone like her? How did she became a big influence in his life? And when did it all start? He couldn't answer any of those yet as he wait patiently by her side.
