Everyone was worried waiting for Doctor Sam who had just come out of the operating room with his tired face. Edward's doctor looked one by one at a time in front of him and then frowned.
“Where is Lady Lizbeth?”
Dmitry approached and spoke up. “She passed out and was being examined by doctor Jack. How's Edward doing?”
There's only Victor, Dmitry and Louis. While Alexa was accompanying Lizbeth in another room.
“We've managed to get the bullet out. We wait for Mr.Ed to wake up,” J Elas doctor Sam. “We will move it to the treatment room later.”
“Lucky you guys quickly brought Mr.Ed, because in addition to the gunshot wound, there is also a stab wound from a knife that contains poison,” he continued.
Everyone let out a slight sigh of relief, at least they were not too late to save Edward's life.
“What will he soon realize?” Ask Dmitry.
“We can't confirm it. Let's hope Mr.Ed wakes up soon, I'll excuse you.”
Everyone nodded before they went to the room where Lizbeth was, the room located not far from there. They saw Alexa who was faithfully beside Lizbeth who was still lying down and did not open her eyes.
Alexa turned her head then moved from her seat, letting Dmitry approach her sister. The man stroked Lizbeth's head gently.
“How is it?”
“Doctor Jack just said Lizbeth is exhausted. Due to her young and first-time gestational age, Lizbeth can't be too tired or mind-blowing. It seems like what happened to.
Edward had a big effect on Lizbeth.” Alexa replied.
True, anyone would definitely feel his world crumble upon seeing a loved one in a wounded state. Edward is the world of Lizbeth and vice versa.
“Clean yourself, me and the others will take care of it,” said Louis who had approached Alexa.
The girl stared at her own look which was really chaotic. A shirt that is no longer intact with a lot of blood stains there and a tired face indicates how bad he is going through his day.
“We will prepare clothes for you, let's come with me.” Victor signals Alexa to follow him.
Alexa nodded then followed Victor leaving two men in Lizbeth's room.
“You already know Alexa well like.”
Louis who sat himself on the sofa nodded then took off his jacket. “Since I served the Kostov family, I have been a friend of Alexa.” ever since
Dmitry now sits on the sofa next to Louis. “Since when did you serve my family?”
Louis smiled faintly. “Since the age of ten years. I was given a new life by your family. The good Mr. Kostov picked me up from the streets and gave me a proper place to live. He taught me to be stronger but never asked for anything from me. From there I swore to devote my whole life to his family. Petrifying Alexa keep offspring Golden rose from far.”
Dmitry smiled, nodding his head. “Thank you, Louis.”
“Happy to see you in person,” reply Louis. “Ed.”
Dmitry immediately moved from his seat to approach Lizbeth who began to realize. The woman looked around before her gaze fell on Dmitry.
“How's Edward?”
“Quiet, don't move much first.” Dmitry holds Lizbeth up. “Operation is going well. We just need to wait for him to wake up.”
“I want to see it,” said Lizbeth forced wake up.
Louis followed Lizbeth and Dmitry out of the room.
“I'll catch up with Alexa.”
Dmitry nodded letting Louis go. The man opened the door of the ward where Edward was now. “Ed, don't you want to see me?” Mumbled Lizbeth who was already sitting at the side of the bed, bent over stroking her husband's jaw gently. “You don't miss me? Open your eyes, Ed.”
Dmitry slowly leaves the room giving Lizbeth time to be with Edward. He did not want to disturb their heartwarming moment. Dmitry also needs to cleanse himself and take a break from all fatigue today. “You promised to return quickly, but not under these circumstances I want.” Lizbeth wiped her tears still with her position staring at her husband's face. “MaaThan me.”
Lizbeth started sobbing and buried his face in the overdraft of Edward's neck without making the man claustrophobic because Lizbeth did not concentrate his weight there.
“It's just because of me, isn't it? Just because of that chip you sacrificed yourself.” Lizbeth returns monologued to feel very guilty about this incident even though it was not his fault.
“We will accompany you here, Daddy.”
Lizbeth smiled faintly, put away his face and positioned himself to sit on the chair next to the bed because he did not want to disturb Edward's comfort if Lizbeth was lying next to him even though the bed was enough to sleep together.
Lizbeth gently grasped Edward's hand and landed his kiss on her husband's lips long enough before laying his head on a pile of his own hands. Wishing that tomorrow Lizbeth could again see a blue twinkle that would look upon her lovingly.

“Taste better?”
Alexa nodded and leaned her head against Louis' shoulder. They had finished cleaning themselves and dinner even though only a few bribes were able to swallow Alexa, considering her mind was in a mess.
“Thank you for being my best place to rest.”
Louis smiled his hand that was about to move stroking Alexa's head he paled.
“I'll always be there for you, anytime.”
Without Louis expecting it, Alexa straightened her body pulling the nape of Louis and immediately pulverized the man's lips full of feelings. Louis, who had been quiet and stiff, was now able to control himself and return Alexa's kiss. Pulling the girl's body further clung onto her body. The two of them dissolved into a lustless kiss for a while before a knock on the door made them let go of the pawn.
Alexa tidied up her appearance and opened the room door to find Dmitry standing with a thin smile.
“Sorry if interrupting your time.”
“What's Dmitry. What was? Did something happen to Edward and Lizbeth?”
“No. I just wanted to ask you about the chip. Have you opened it?”
Alexa turned to look at Louis before allowing Dmitry to enter and then closed the door.
“We haven't opened it yet. We think Edward is entitled to open it even though we have managed to find the last password,” explained Alexa.
“So we'll wait for Edward to wake up?” Louis and Alexa nodded.
“Alright, hopefully all soon finished.”
“Ya, hopefully,” reply Alexa. “Is Lizbeth still in Edward's room?”
“Yes, Lizbeth looks very guilty over this incident.”
“This is no one's fault. If life always goes our way, we will not understand what struggle means.”
Dmitry and Louis nodded in agreement with what Alexa said. Life is not always smooth. But, they are convinced that happiness must exist, because God has an infinite love for even sinful beings, like those who are accustomed to living in the guidelines of killing or being killed.
