Chapter 390 - The Horrible Accident (1/2)

Alaric had never felt so sad in his life. He had lived in violence for too long so he had almost become numb to emotions. For the past decades he had learnt to conceal his emotions and never show his true feelings to the outside world.

But since Aleksis came into his life, his frozen heart was slowly melting and he began to feel the emotions that burst forth from the bottom of his heart. Various emotions and feelings that had been buried for so long; feelings that had long been hidden behind his neutral expressions. Now, slowly, they began to show their forms.

Now he could not hold back his tears. The loss of his mother when he was born was his greatest pain so far, and he always carried with him a sense of guilt; that his birth was the cause of his mother's death.

He had never expected that he was capable of feeling a greater loss. The thought that Aleksis had died while he was far away and unable to do anything was far more painful than losing his mother. He felt that fate was always so cruel to him and never took his side.

He had just found his happiness ... but fate so cruelly snatched Aleksis from his side.

”Aleksis !!!!”

”Aleksiiiiss ... wake up !!”

”Oh my God ... Aleksiss ...”

From the other end of the telephone, which fell on the floor, he could hear people screaming, calling Aleksis' name. It tore his heart to pieces. He hit the wall again and again with all his strength, leaving various holes covered in blood.

Aleksis suddenly fainted after seeing that Lauriel had managed to knock Rosemary out. The tension she felt during the last few minutes caused her to go into shock. Before Nicolae could catch her body, Aleksis had fallen to the ground and her head hit a large metal pot behind her.

The shocked screams from Terry, Nicolae, and Lauriel did nothing to prevent Aleksis' fall. They were all half a second late. Lauriel hurriedly patted Rosemary's neck and the girl fell limply to the ground.

He then immediately ran after Aleksis' body who was lying unconscious on the ground. Nicolae knelt with Aleksis' head on his lap. He felt like he was losing his mind, while Terry stood rooted to the ground unable to move ... His eyes flushed and his handsome face looked devastated.

”Quickly check her vital signs,” ordered Lauriel who was still able to think clearly. Hearing his father's words, Nicolae immediately remembered that he was a doctor himself, and so he hurriedly checked Aleksis' pulse and opened her eyes to see her level of consciousness.

Nicolae sighed in relief. He signaled his father to take care of Terry who was still in shock while he carried Aleksis out of the cafetaria. Lauriel patted Terry on the shoulders. The young man returned to earth and looked at him with very worried eyes.

”Let's go home. Soon the police will to come take care of that girl. I don't want them to bother us.”

The atmosphere in the cafeteria had become very chaotic and everyone was busy uploading videos of the event that happened to various internet media. St. Mary University was the talk of the day.

Five minutes later, the four of them were in the car heading for the Continental Hotel. Nicolae drove the car like crazy and Terry sat next to him with a pale face.

In the back seat, Lauriel sat with Aleksis on his lap. She was barely breathing and she hadn't regained consciousness. Lauriel took the time to call Caspar and tell him about what had happened.
