((( DERICK POV's )))
I suddenly lost my grip on the groceries I was holding when I saw her lying on the floor. I immediately picked her up and hurried to the hospital. I felt worried especially with what I heard…
"We can save your wife Mister. But we can't promise the baby would be fine." I didn't know what else I could do.
I instantly signed the papers that they gave me and spent almost two hours sitting outside the operating room. She's only seven months through her pregnancy... Seven months...
I closed my eyes and remembered the past.
Was that my karma for all the bad things I've done before? I hope not.
Never in my life had I been that worried and if that was a punishment for my actions, I wished the kid would be spared.
(((JASMIN POV's )))
Because I regained good health, Rhio decided to take us back to his rest house in Kantou.
The location was simple and the house itself was minimalistic but…
"Your family isn't safe here, Rhio." It was Atty. Elthon.
"...Although I want to take them home right away...I can't. She still isn't in the right condition to travel far." "The news has already caught up about you and your family staying here."
"I know. I'm already tightening the security for the whole villa."
"I hope the security would do well." I slowly climbed back upstairs. I didn't want to add to his problem anymore and the best thing to do that was to stay obedient and safe.
"Miss Jasmin ..."
"Deo ..."
"You're going to have your family picture by ten. Then about the baptism, I compiled a list of coordinators with their own portfolios here," he gave me a stack of envelopes, "Just choose who you want to organize the event."
"Sure Deo."
I sat down and individually scanned the heap of portfolios.
Long time ago, I didn't expect my life to reach such dangerous phase…I also didn't expect someone who'd love me the way Rhio did and the two people whom I will love for the rest of my life. And I'm satisfied with that.
