Chapter 168 - We Have A Body

Liam walks back and forth in the waiting room. He is still shocked when he saw his grandma got hit when their car crash with another car. He was protecting Sabrina at that time and his right arm broke while his left arm got a few stitches.

While Sabrina only got a few bruises on her body and face and Victoria was severely injured. Their driver's dead and one of their bodyguards also died due to the crash impact. The other bodyguard was in the car which Luna and Mr. Carson take. The three of them are now confirmed dead and the rescue team is still looking for their body down the cliff.

Luna and her baby were saved, lucky that Mr. Carson immediately pulls her out of the vehicle and grab on the branch before the car drag down to the cliff. But to save her, he had to sacrifice himself. Even if he gets out of the situation, he can't survive. He had a severe injury on his rib and beyond saving.

Luna was still unconscious while Victoria is now in the operation room. After almost an hour, the doctor walks out and calls for Liam and Sabrina.

The two of them rush to the doctor and ready to hear what he was about to say.

Pull down his mask, he sighs and says, "I'm afraid, Madam Victoria had not much time left. Her injury is severe and giving the fact that her age now is over fifty, there's nothing we could do more. I'm sorry." the doctor then lowered his head. To deliver such bad news is often hard for a doctor.

Liam runs his finger through his thick hair before he bangs his left hand on the wall. His face already turned red and Sabrina immediately hugs him from behind. Hoping that he would not do something that will hurt him anymore.

"Does she..aware of it?" Liam asked the doctor when he's a bit calm now.

Nodded, the doctor said. "She's know and request for your presence. She also said to not informing her condition to any of her family members yet."

With that being said, Liam stride inside the room where Victoria was waiting for him. Took the chair beside the bed and bring her wrinkle hand to his lips. Kissing it gently. "Grandma." He tries to not breaking his voice.

With a heavy breath, Victoria slowly turns her head to the man beside her bed. "Liam.." She tries to pull a smile.

"Yes, grandma?" He hides his tears up face from Victoria. "I'm here, I'll be at your side."

"Hm..how's Luna?" She asked, her vision start blurry a bit and each time she speaks up, her chest in pain.

"She's and the baby is fine. She still unconscious."

Her tears rolled down her cheek. "Thank god…I can't forgive myself if anything happens to her or any of you."

Liam did not tell her about Mr. Carson who died while saving Luna and he also did not tell her anyone that has been died in that tragedy. "Liam…" She slowly calls his name.

Sniffles a bit, he asked, "Yes, grandma?" he held her hand a bit tighter to share his warmth to her cold hands now.

"I have the last favor I want to ask from you, can you help me?"

Liam quickly nods his head. "Anything you want, grandma."

With her lower voice, she said "Bring her out from this country. Make her disappear from the Wayne. Also..please read the will I just made today and hide her whereabouts from all of the family."

Liam could only nod his head. "I will, grandma."

Chuckles, she smiles again. "And Liam…I'm sorry I couldn't make it to your wedding day."

Liam also chuckles while crying, "You don't have to be sorry. For you to give us a blessing already makes me happy enough."

Victoria slowly lifts up her other hand and pat on Liam's head. Breaking into tears. "I'm sorry, I couldn't do anything to my own son. To your mother too. I'm so sorry." She said for the last time before she closes her eyes and breathes for the last time.

Her hand slowly falls down to the bed and Liam cry while holding her cold hand. Her heart monitors machine beep continuously with one flat line on the screen.

….

When Liam walk out of the room, he saw two lawyers from before and they handed him a set of a file consist Victoria's last will. They return back when they receive the call and immediately find the next president for claiming his throne immediately.

He takes the file and reads it thoroughly before he finally understands what his grandmother means earlier.

She wants Luna's child to get the same treatment as other Wayne without knowing to be a Wayne. She wants Luna's child to get the same spot as the next heir regardless of gender until he or she turns at the right age.

Their marriage contract is release and Luna is now free if she ever wants a divorce except that the child will still have to fight for the next throne later. By her mean to brings Luna out of this country is to wipe out of her identity to protect her and her child from James.

And that will require a lot of work for him. He sighs and looks at the lawyer for a moment. "We have a body. Just need her DNA." One of them says to which then Liam shocked.

"You have that? Where did you-"

"We counterfeit it. Look like a real body but, don't worry. It's only a decoy." Another lawyer said.

"Her new identity?" Liam asked and one of them handed a set of a bag which have an ID card, SSN card, driver license, passport and all of the important document.

He took the ID card and look at her name. "Luna Arista?"

"Arista is her mother's middle name. We thought that it might be suitable for her."

"What if she's being caught using a fake ID?" Liam states his worries.

"Actually," The man stops and presses his lips together. "This ID is made by L Corp company. They have a great link with the government and it has been approved by the minister. So, it safe. The data and everything have been updated into their database."

Again Liam was dumbstruck. "How did Ben-"

"Madam Victoria asked for his wife's help. You know his wife would never refuse Madam Victoria as she really much respects her."

Liam sighs. Of course! Lisa! She always been a big help for Wayne. Maybe because she feels guilty toward Harry? She loves Harry, but why she decides to marry Ben instead?

"I understood. If it was her, then I'm not worried." He stops his sentence for a moment before he squinted his eyes a bit, "Don't tell me, the decoy is also her work?" Liam could guess it. If someone were about to make a real human body then it must be her or Harry. Both were a crazy scientist.

The two of the lawyer nodded their head. "It's gonna be hard for Luna and maybe for Raymond too." Liam murmur and sign at the bottom of the paper.

With that now, he has the full authority for Victoria's seat. Only after that, he calls everyone in Wayne to deliver the news about the death of Victoria and Luna.
