Chapter 101 - Save her (1/2)
His shaking hands managed to carry the maiden in his sturdy arms. The woman's lips turning sheet white as every second passed by, her once lively color is now resembling a withering flower.
"Drive faster! I don't care if you break the damn rules," he commanded, putting pressure to the driver, not even minding that he is not in his territory anymore.
He is eager to put Celestia in safety.
Who dares to put the herculean emperor of the most affluent empire?
It is only Celestia who has that power.
He can't manage it to lose her again without having the control on what will happen next.
He hated it, the feeling of being powerless.
Logan's heart like a drum beating loudly every second, it bounces back and forth while thumping hardly.
"Your highness, the emperor of Ainiligary empire is on the phone" Oliver who is seated beside the driver, handed the phone to Logan. His calm composure was what made him a valuable assistant to the tyrant emperor.
"Where are you?" his voice low, yet with a hint of panicked. He cannot think rationally anymore, his mind is too occupied of the possibilities, the math his brain is doing seems to have increasing the percentage of him losing Celestia again, only this time, it may last for a last time.
A life without love eh?
Sure, he lived that way, he gets used to it ever since he was a child, but now, having tasted what it feels like, having known what it can do, he never wants to let Celestia go.
Who would've thought that Logan Daxon Ruwedor Fergus, the creator of the miracle drug, would be here, begging all the gods to let the woman who melted the walls in his heart, be saved from death's door.
'Just this one,'
His eyes starting to water as he thought of what could possibly happen if he's not there on time, if Hannibal is not on his place.
"I'm on a meeting, why?" the soothing voice of Hannibal replied in contrast to Logan's harsh ones.
What could be the reason why his workaholic friend call in such hour?
"Celestia's in danger, I'm in front of your company"
What Logan said shocked Hannibal. Why would Helen be with him?
"Okay, send her to the E.R" he replied hastily. The Devyn's are known in the business world for their mastery in terms of medicine, and Hannibal being the successor, graduated from the most well-known college with a master's degree and a PhD in medicine, majoring as a neurosurgeon.
After the call ended, Hannibal's face darkened which caused the board members to shake in fear. Their kind emperor has never showed this kind of face!
One of the old geezers even wiped out sweat even though the room is completely air-conditioned, in his life, he knows when he sees a kind-hearted person goes mad…it's too scary even for an old man like him.
