Chapter 12: Maturing Alicia?

The officer, who was looking at the swirling red eyes in front of him as he answered with a shuttering voice and sweat on his face.

"Maam, I just asked the young lady if she wanted any help in putting on the G-force suit, nothing more."

May, who is listening to the officer and is looking deep into his eyes, is trying to see if he is lying. After looking for a few seconds, she can see he has no other intentions.

"You are pretty lucky."

"I am in a hurry right now; otherwise, I would have definitely teach you a lesson for doing what you are not told to do, officer," May said coldly

Also, she didn't want her niece to see her as being cruel.

After saying that she could see the officer was keeping his head down, just after talking, he didn't leave, waiting for her to give an order.

"Are you waiting for me? Break your legs quickly and get out of here." May said it with a slightly annoyed tone.

The officer who listened to the crazy woman's voice quickly began to run away from her sight and began to think this woman was more crazy than he imagined.

He could tell if she is not in a hurry; she would definitely break his bone.

He only wanted to help.

Seeing that the officer has run away May begins to focus on Alicia, who is currently curiously looking at the plane.

May began to walk up to Alicia and help her change into the suit as both of them were ready to depart.

Alicia, who noticed the military pilot was not there, asked her aunt how they were going without the pilot.

"Don't worry, your aunt knows how to fly this, and there are only two seats for you and me."

"With this jet, we will reach there in less than 2 hours."

Alicia is listening to her aunt say that she can fly this cool-looking plane. She felt that her aunt was very cool, as she directly praised her.

"Wow, Aunt May, I don't know why you are so cool." With a twinkle in her black eyes.

Because she had only seen her aunt mess up the food and accompany them while they played.

As for her cold emotions, she thinks it's her natural face. She also looks very beautiful.

She secretly tried making her face look like hers, but it didn't suit her.

Also, she can tell all these big, muscular officers are very scared of her, not just because her rank is higher than hers but because they look like they've seen a ghost and don't even look into her eyes.

In her mind, she thought she would become just like her and protect her like a cute little brother from those hungry girls who would go after his brother when he grew up with madness in deep black eyes.

"Aunt I have decided I would definitely become like you and protect my brother," Alicia said it with resolve.

Listening to her talk about becoming like her and genuinely praising her, she felt pretty good inside.

She was not the one who would feel happy for praise, but praise from her family made her feel very good.

"Now is not the time for that, Alicia. We have to go quickly." May said, with a slight twitch in her ears.

Alicia can tell her aunt is very happy. But her face is still as emotional as ever, without any expression. Seeing her like that, Alicia finds her very cute.

She also really thinks that it's not the time for that because she has to face her mom's body in front of her.

She didn't know how she would be able to handle that, but she was thinking about her brother, who was in the hospital. She thought she had to quickly go to her brother, hoping that if she visited him, he would wake up.

Before boarding the jet, Aunt May told Alicia that she would feel pressure when they flew, but with her healthy physique, she would be easily able to handle it. With some dizziness

After one hour and twenty minutes, they arrived at the airport nearest to the hospital, where Aiden is currently admitted because they could not land the jet anywhere.

May asked Alicia if she was okay as Alicia said she can easily handle little headaches.

Seeing that her niece was okay May felt relieved

The hospital is twenty minutes from here if they get a cab.

As both of them arrived at the hospital, May asked the receptionist about anyone who had been admitted to the emergency room by the military in a few hours and showed her military ID card.

The receptionist who saw the card began to read it as her eyes focused on the rank

She bowed her head quickly and began to lead her to the room because it was pretty unusual for a kid to have two military guards.

She also thought the kid must be a big shot; she would inform the hospital to pay special attention to him as a general personally visited him.

As they reached the room, the receptionist quickly bowed her head and left them for privacy.

Alicia and May were currently standing in front of the room where Aiden was being treated.

Alicia's hands were shaking due to her being nervous, and she was also pretty tense seeing her nephew in a coma.

"Alicia, you have to face the truth. You cannot hide it. Let's go and see your brother." May said

May seems to be telling this not only to Alicia but also to herself.

She had seen many more gruesome sights than this in her service, but the idea of seeing her family hurt was pretty hard for her.

They both took a deep breath, pushed the door open, and entered inside.

It was a big, luxurious room. There seemed to be military officers standing guard a few meters away from the bed where Aiden was in a coma and a good-looking nurse sitting on the chair.

Soldiers guarding Aiden had already heard the footsteps of someone coming; their hands were on their automatic rifles, ready to shoot if it was someone suspicious because they didn't get any information about someone visiting.

And the nurse is pretty tense, seeing their extreme reaction; she guessed this boy must be very important.

But seeing a red-haired beauty and a young, beautiful black-haired girl enter, they quickly eased the grip from their guns and saluted the red-haired woman.

Seeing the officer May order the two soldiers to stand outside the room, they quickly left.

The nurse also wanted to leave, but she could not because she had to take care of the patient. Seeing the emotionless, cold-faced woman, she was scared of angering her while explaining the condition of the patient.

For a nurse like her one word, is enough to lose her job.

Alicia, who had entered the room, focused on her brother, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

She had already imagined it many times visiting him while coming here, but seeing it with her eyes, tears started to leak out of her eyes as she quickly moved closer to the bed to see his body, which is covered in many bandages and some liquid is entering his body through a pipe.

And on the machine that measures the heart rate, it showed that it was normal, as she could read it.

She started to calm down, wiped her tears, and asked the nurse about his condition.

May, who was observing Alicia's reaction, is pretty satisfied that she didn't break down, but she didn't know if seeing her mother would allow her to handle it. She was also not sure about herself.

The nurse started to speak as they both listened carefully. She told them that he had multiple cuts all over his body, but they were not too serious and would heal within a month with no internal injuries. But he fell into a coma for unknown reasons, and they didn't know when he would wake up.

Listening to her, Alicia feels it's good that he's not in serious condition; as for him being in a coma, she believes he will definitely wake up.

May is worried about the coma, as she finds it suspicious with this level of injuries. She also has the thought that it was not caused by a natural reason, but she cannot do anything right now.

After she investigates the crash site, if she finds someone's involvement, she will let them know what real hell is.

"Alicia, we have to go to your mother, and quickly she gave her burial. She deserves it, and our Aiden condition is alright; you can visit him later."

Alicia's body froze her spot listening to what her Aunt had said. She knew had to face her mother, whom she had been avoiding subconsciously.

As she replied, her aunt

"Aunt, can you please arrange for Mom to go home with us? I didn't want the media to get involved and my mother to become a political chess piece," she continued while asking the nurse. seaʀᴄh thё novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Can I move my brother to our home?"

As the nurse replied,

"Miss, you can transfer him as his condition is pretty stable, but you have to talk to the doctor; I didn't have the authority to make the decision."

With resolve, she faced her aunt again and continued.

"Aunt, can you arrange all this for me? For now, I will wait here with Aiden and look after him."

Seeing her niece talk with resolve, she sees that she has grown up a little.
