Chapter 63
Ethan and Irish rushed into Doc Luc hospital and was led into his office by the two nurses.
“Where are they?”Ethan asked, not seeing the specialists they came them for.
“They are cleaning up, they’ll be out soon” one of the nurses said before walking out.
“Gabrielle was right when she said we don’t know what might have gone wrong with them” Ethan said.
“Yeah” Irish nodded, still startled by the fact that the specialists were kidnapped.
“Hii” They heard, and turned to see two ladies walking out of Doc Luc’s personal restroom.
Irish never thought the specialists would be ladies and they look so beautiful, she rarely see Indians.
“I’m Sunil”
“I’m Shreedah” The ladies stretched out the hands and Ethan and Irish gladly took it.
“We’re so sorry about what happened to you both” Irish said and Ethan nodded in affirmative. “Ohh.. my. Aren’t you Ethan Harlow?” The lady called Sunil asked and Ethan nodded.
“Can i hug you?” Sunil asked expectantly.
“Yeah” Ethan smiled and Sunil pulled him into a hug.
Shreedah smiled and took a seat.
She was tired from the stress and all, they never thought they’d have this experience on their first day in California.
They had been looking so forward to the surgeries not until they were waylaid and kidnapped. Her ears still hurt from the slaps she had received.
“I like you so much, you’re one of the few billionaires that assists people in every way they can , if i had known it was your mother we were coming to perform surgery on, i would have fought those kidnappers with all my strength” Sunil said and Ethan laughed.. Their English was obviously different from theirs, theirs sounded funny to the ears.
“So… how did it all.. happened?” Irish asked curiously.
“We were just few minutes away from this hospital when a car crossed ours and took over the wheels, we were blindfolded throughout the journey and even when we got to wherever theytook us to, we only heard voices without even seeing anyone” Shreedah said.
“Wow!” Ethan exclaimed.
“Shreedah was slapped severally cause she refused to cooperate” Sunil said.
“Ohh.. my no wonder her cheeks looks so red. Sorry Shreedah” Irish said.
“Sorry Shreedah” Ethan said.
“Thank you” Shreedah said.
“We should involve the cops” Ethan said.
“No!” They both exclaimed, startling Ethan and Irish
“Why? We should involve the cops” Irish said.
“They threatened to come after us if we do. They know i have a child and they threatened to kill her if we ever go to the cops.” Shreedah blinked rapidly.
“Ohhh” Irish and Ethan sighed.
” Moreover, they didn’t hurt us.” Sunil said, still being clingy to Ethan and Irish doesn’t know why it upsets her so much.
“Do you probably know the reason you both were kidnapped or could it be mistaken identity?” Ethan asked.
“I don’t think so… i remembered what they said when Shreedah said we have a life to save” Sunil said.
“What did they say?” Irish asked curiously.
“They said… we were kidnapped because of the life we want to save…” Shreedah answered. “What!!” Ethan and Irish exclaimed.
“And she’ll be confirmed dead before we’re released.” Sunil said and Irish felt sick to the stomach.
“I guess they released us after knowing the woman had been flown to India” Shreedah said.
“I.. m.. my mum, they were after my mum” Irish said shockingly..
“Ohh.. she’s your mum?” Sunil said, kind of disappointed.
“Yeah” Ethan said and turned to Irish.
“W.. why?” Irish frowned.
“Why would anyone want my mum dead?” She added.
“Wow..” Sunil sighed.
“Just chill, we’ll get back to it. Let’s get Sunil and Shreedah to the hotel, so they can rest and leave by tomorrow morning” Ethan said.
“Okay” Irish said, deeply worried.
“I.. don’t think we’ll be safe at the hotel. Your house would be better” Sunil smiled, hand brushing her long silky hair.
“No, i don’t really allow people in my house. You’ll be fine at the hotel. It’s my hotel actually and you’ll have bodyguards surrounding the whole place” Ethan said.
“Ohh… that’s fine then” Sunil said, slightly embarrassed and Irish would have laughed if not because of the situation.
“We’re so sorry about everything. You guys wouldn’t have gotten into this mess if we hadn’t asked you to come over…” Ethan said.
“No, that’s our job. To save lives, you’re not to blame for it” Sunil said.
“Can we move to the hotel please, my body… is aching and I’ll really like to eat” Shreedah said.
“Of course, i messaged the chauffeur already, he would be here soon” Ethan said.
‘its getting dark’ Irish thought after peering out of the window..
‘will Arusha be fine?’ she thought worriedly.
He must be feeling so lonely, she wish she can just go be with him till their mum is back but she can’t leave her work, she know Ethan will definitely allow her go but she can’t take advantage of that, it’s not so fair.
Arusha would be fine…
“Hey, what’s wrong?” Ethan asked Irish, moving beside her..Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Nothing…” She let out a small smile.
“C’mon, i can tell you’re very worried about something and i understand cause there’s so much going on at the moment but just know and believe everything will be fine okay?” Ethan assured and Irish nodded.
“Thank you” She said.
“Okay so, don’t you think we should take legal actions, it’s so obvious those kidnappers wanted your mum dead! I’m pretty sure that’s what you’re so bothered about” Ethan said.
“No, i was thinking about Arusha actually. And yeah, knowing there is someone out there who wants my mum dead is enough to worry about but right now I’m just so worried about mum’s health more than anything.” Irish said.
“Of course, you should be. We all are. But don’t you think we should involve the cops now so they won’t come after her when she’s fully well”
“Involving the cops will worsen the situation Ethan, I’ll make sure i get a new apartment for mum and Arusha if she survives”
“Irish, getting a new apartment for her doesn’t stop the bad guys from coming after her” Ethan said.
“I know but she needs to survive first and we have to consider Shreedah’s daughter” Irish said. Ethan’s phone beeped and he stared at the screen.
“The chauffeur is here” He said to Sunil and Shreedah who were discussing.
“Ohh.. okay” they both picked their bags.
They all walked out of Doc Luc’s office.
“Irish, getting a new apartment for her doesn’t stop the bad guys from coming after her” Ethan’s words rang in her ears as they walked.
Why does she feel it’s because of her they want her mum dead and why is her mind pointing at Morgan Harlow?
She blew out a breath and watched Ethan talked to the chauffeur, Sunil and Shreedah had gotten into the car already with two bodyguards with them.
Irish was irritated with how Sunil kept touching Ethan.
What a clingy thing!
