Chapter 204 - Life
Luke was the current Chairman of Wilson Group and under him was A.E Corporation where Jayden is the current CEO. So technically, he's my husband's boss and friend.
Kyle looked at Luke. He's the King but he knew Luke Wilson has more power and wealth than the king of a small country. His power was limited to Flousia only, while Luke holds the power in a lot of countries.
"He's Luke Wilson, the chairman of Wilson Group. He'll take care of them. The royal family can't provide security for them after all this but once everything's back to normal, we'll take over your safety." Kyle answered.
Kyle's decision was right. We can't afford to provide men to Alejandro's family since a lot of guards were either injured or killed.
Alejandro was surprised. He didn't expect to meet Luke. Then his eyes widened and again trembled in fear when he realized who were the men he fought with. I was observing the man who turned white after some realization.
"You are those men! The one who fought with the Santelmo's! The five men who won against half of the Mafia Clans!" He almost yelled in surprise.
Luke didn't answer. Kyle was just looking at Alejandro who was shaking from fear. Percy and Andrew walked towards Kyle and Luke. They looked like they came from a battle.
"Everything's fine outside. The girls and the kids were moved already. The other members of the royal family were in a safe place as well." Percy said.
I was relieved to hear that everyone's fine. I saw Andrew run towards me as I was still standing a few steps away from Alejandro and couldn't move.
"Peggy!" He shouted. I didn't know the reason why he was running. then to my surprise, he suddenly carried me.
"Andrew, what are you doing?" I asked with a frown on my face.
Andrew was Nina's fiance. I know it was just a friend's gesture but it was still awkward for a married woman to be carried by another man, even if he's a friend.
"You're bleeding, princess." He said in a worried voice.
Then I saw a few drops of blood from where I was standing. My eyes widened and flinched from pain when I felt a sudden pain in my belly.
I looked at Kyle and my father who was rushing towards me. Kyle yelled for the doctor to check on me. I started to have an irregular breathing. I couldn't understand why I suddenly bled. I didn't feel any pain until Andrew told me.
Then I saw Luke and Percy grabbed a man who was holding a knife. That was the man I kicked earlier that I thought was taken outside. I realized I was stabbed like Jayden.
Andrew gently put me down on the couch next to Jayden's. My vision was starting to blur and I couldn't even recognize the people who approached me.
"We need to move her. The stab wound was deeper than her husband's. We need to take her to the hospital." One of the doctors said.
A stretcher was bought inside the hall to carry me. I could still see the silhouettes of the people who approached me.
I was afraid of the baby inside me, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to see Caden and Jayden again. I flinched from the pain when they carried me to the stretcher.
They started to take me away and I took a glance at Jayden when I was already beside the couch where he was laid down.
"L-Love?" It was Jayden's voice.
I looked at him and slightly smiled. It was blurry but I know he was already awake.
"W-What happened?" He asked.
"You were stabbed but you're fine now. But Peggy needs to be taken to the hospital. She's been stabbed, too." It was Kyle who answered.
Jayden suddenly grabbed my hand and saw that he was trying to stand up. Kyle and the others stopped him.
"L-Love, I'm okay. I'm okay." I continued to whisper in a raspy voice.
Tears started falling from my eyes. It was from the pain and fear of what's going to happen. I felt so weak and couldn't explain the level of pain in my belly.
"No! No! I'll go with you!" Jayden shouted.
Kyle nodded to the men who were carrying me while Percy and Andrew were trying to pin down Jayden. He struggled and forced himself to stand up. But he screamed from pain because of his stab wound.
"L-Love, I'll be fine. K-Kyle will take you there, right brother? For now, stay still and rest." I stammered.
Jayden continued to struggle while I cried when slowly his warm hand slid from mine. I didn't want to let go but I was losing my grip from being too weak. I know Jayden was the same. He couldn't stand up when our friends stopped him from moving.
It was blurry but I know someone injected something into him. When he started to lose consciousness, I still heard his voice whispering.
"I love you, Peggy. Wait for me." He said before his hands fell down, letting go of mine.
My father held my hand, squeezing it.
"I'll come with you." He said.
I took a last glance at Jayden with tears falling from my eyes. My heart was being crushed as I saw him being taken away. He needed to rest and seeing me like this won't help him.
Then I touched my belly and talked to the little one inside.
"Hang on. Please hang on. Please, my little angel. Mommy's here. Daddy and your big brother's waiting for you. We're excited to meet you, so please stay strong for us, okay?" I said while sobbing.
As I was being transported to the hospital, from blurry vision, it started to go black. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath when the pain became intense and frequent.
The last time I remember, I felt someone injected something on my shoulder before I passed out.
