Chapter 76 - Fake Tears (1/2)

After a minute, she could hear the door open and someone entered the room with heavy footsteps.

”Sh*t.” The man spoke. The voice sounded familiar, not one of her captors.

The man walked into the room and the first thing he saw was Gary and Lena on the floor, both bleeding out. He went to check on Gary first because he had the most wounds. He checked his pulse.

There was still one but very weak. He went next to Lena and check her's. It was weak too, but stronger than Gary's.

”I found them. We are at the lowest level. Need immediate medical attention.” He spoke to his earphone.

He dropped his gun to the side and unbuckled his gears. He took off his outer shit and tightened the wound on Lena. Lena suddenly opened her eyes.

”No… Gary.” She shook her head. 'Not me! Take care of Gary first!' Lena screamed inside but could not get the words out. The man did not hear her and Lena closed her eyes again. This time, she went into an unconscious state.

When she opened her eyes again, she was not in the damp dark room. There were bright lights around her and she was moving really fast. She could see several people. They were doctors and nurses.

”Hello? Miss? You are going into surgery right now.” One of the female nurses spoke to her.

Lena just blinked.

”What was her name? She's not responding.”

”Patient Shen Qian. Sustained heavy injuring from a car crash.”

'What did they say her name was? Shen Qian? Was she back?' Lena was very confused. She tried to feel her body and it aches all over. 'I can't be here… I need to make sure Gary is fine.'

”Pressure is dropping! Get us into that surgery room now!”

”We lost her! Starting chest compressions.”

Lena's mind went black and dark. She could no longer hear anything nor feel anything. Her body was peaceful as if she was really dead.

'I can't die yet… I still haven't found love yet.'

”You are a blessed child” The granny's voice echoed in the silent darkness.

Lena's body jerked up and she opened her eyes.

”Lena?” Shen Milli was scared. It looked like her daughter had just woken up from a nightmare.

Lena glanced to her side. ”Mom?”

Shen Milli quickly sat on the bed and hugged Lena. ”It's alright. You are safe now.”

Lena looked around. She was in a hospital room. 'Didn't I went back?' If she was still here then…

”Gary.”

Shen Milli released Lena. ”You have been sleeping for four days now. You need to stay in your bed.”

”Is… Is he dead?” Lena stumbled to say that work. ”Don't lie to me.”

”He's in a different room.”

”I have to go see him” Lena removed the blanket from her and was preparing to get out of the bed.
