Love Worth Fighting For

215 The last message

“Elena, what happened to Elena?”

Romaria and the doctor who had just give a cesarean section on Elena immediately turned towards the source of the sound.

Romaria immediately covers her mouth with her hands when she sees Christian appear.

“What happened to Elena, doc?” Christian repeats his question again in a trembling voice trying to stay strong.

“The patient’s bleeding was so severe that she finally lost consciousness when she arrived at the hospital an hour ago. Luckily we managed to stop the bleeding in time so that the lives of the mother and child were saved, it’s just...”

“Just what, doc? ” Christian asks again impatiently.

“It’s just that because the patient fell hard enough to make her head bleed, we had to do a cesarean section to save the baby as the patient wanted when she woke up at the crucial second and after we did a cesarean, the patient’s condition was critical again.”

Christian’s legs feel so weak he’s lucky he’s standing against the wall so he can lean against it right away.

“And the condition of the baby is still under strict supervision from the pediatrician who immediately takes care of her as soon as she is removed from the mother’s body...”

.....

“Why do you have to get strict supervision from the pediatrician, doc?” asked Anne aloud, panting.

Without Christian and Kainer knowing, Anne and Jack immediately followed them off using the plane Jack used this morning to go to see firsthand Elena’s condition. Upon hearing the news that Elena was pregnant and fell and had to be taken to the hospital due to bleeding, Anne forced Jack to follow Christian back to Luxembourg. And here they are now having arrived in Luxembourg only minutes away from Christian.

“Because the baby was born prematurely, apart from that her condition is also much smaller than a premature baby her age. That’s why a pediatrician immediately took care of her, Mrs. Clarke,” answered the doctor named Jasmine very politely after recognizing who the person was talking in front of her.

Anne immediately held her head which suddenly hurt, the image of what happened to Princess decades ago came back to haunt Anne. Her guilt for not being able to take good care of Princess made Anne’s chest feel tight.

“So.” Jack joined in the conversation with his hand directly on Anne’s waist. “How is his mother doing?”

Doctor Jasmine, who knew that Jack and Anne had not heard what she had previously said to Christian, then repeated her words carefully when explaining the condition of Elena who was still unconscious.

Jack immediately lifted his head up high, Doctor Jasmine’s explanation pierced his chest. Even though he hasn’t seen Elena in person, Jack is already feeling a lot of guilt. All the evil words that he had given to Elena this morning replayed in his head, even the face of Elena who was crying silently because his words appeared in his head right now.

“Yes sir,” Doctor Jasmine asked softly to Christian who was already touching his hand.

Christian’s eyes, which were already filled with tears, turned to look at Doctor Jasmine. “Can I see Elena’s condition?”

“Sorry young master, you or anyone else is not allowed to come in and see her current condition,” said Doctor Jasmine firmly.

“But...”

“If you care about the safety of the patient’s life then you only need to follow my instructions, but if you don’t care about her then I will invite you to come in and see her in person. But remember young master, when you enter then when it is also me and all medical staff will release our responsibility to the patient.”

Not only Christian who was so shocked to hear doctor Jasmine’s words, Anne, Jack and everyone who was in front of the operating room were also as shocked as Christian.

Doctor Jasmine taps Christian on the shoulder. “I’m sorry Mr. Clarke, I’m doing this for the good of the patient. So I hope you can understand, after all even though you are outside the room you can also see it because the room where the patient is in has a large glass that can make you and everyone happy to see it from the outside.”

Hearing Doctor Jasmine’s words made Christian unable to move, he couldn’t say anything because the threat that Doctor Jasmine gave was so terrible. Right now he couldn’t lose Elena, couldn’t lose the woman who had been the victim of his crimes for months.

“Can I see my granddaughter, doc?” asked Anne hoarsely.

Doctor Jasmine smiled. “Of course you can, madam. But later when the doctor in charge of her has done her job on the beautiful baby.”

“Beautiful?” Jack repeated Doctor Jasmine’s words stammering.

“Yes, the baby is so beautiful just like her mother and inherited her father’s blue eyes. What a wonderful baby,” answered Doctor Jasmine excitedly, recalling how the baby face she had pulled out of Elena’s stomach a moment ago had excited her.

When he heard the physical characteristics of the baby born to Elena made Jack cry silently, his accusations against Elena and the baby were not proven. The baby really belongs to Christian.

Doctor Jasmine pointed to a room next to Anne and Jack. “That’s where you can all see the beautiful baby.”

Anne and Jack and Christian immediately turned quickly towards the room indicated by Doctor Jasmine, as well as everyone who had only been listening to Doctor Jasmine’s conversation with the three members of the Clarke family.

“But later after doctor Kimmy finished taking care of it,” added Doctor Jasmine again.

“How much longer do we have to wait for Doctor Kimmy to finish, doc?” asked Anne impatiently, hearing that Christian had a baby girl Anne was so excited.

Doctor Jasmine smiled. “For that I can’t say for sure, so we have to wait patiently. Babies who are born normal should be treated with care, especially premature babies.”

Anne nodded slowly in response to Doctor Jasmine’s words.

“Okay, then I’ll excuse myself to change clothes. Don’t worry, my changing room is just beside this room, so I will be able to come right away if needed,” said Doctor Jasmine quietly.

“Okay, doc,” Erick answered quickly, representing his employer’s family, who looked very unfocused.

Doctor Jasmine slowly left the place towards the changing room she had mentioned earlier with a nurse accompanying her to treat Elena. As soon as doctor Jasmine leaves, Christian’s attention is immediately drawn to the curtain that another nurse has just opened from the inside. As soon as the curtain is opened, Christian and everyone else in the room can see Elena lying on the hospital bed with various medical devices connected to her body. The most striking part of Elena at this time was the bandage on her head, it was clear that when she fell, Elena’s head was hit by a blunt object which had to make the head get stitches.

Christian walks straight to the glass, his hands pressed against the glass. “My love..”

After all that had happened, this was the first time Christian called Elena ‘my love’ again.

Seeing Elena who was closing her eyes on the hospital bed like this made Christian so tormented, especially after he knew the facts that Kainer had shown him. Regret, sadness, anger all become one in Christian at this time. Many times he cursed himself for what he had done to Elena all this time, Christian regretted all his evil actions and words that made Elena cry.

Christian promised in his heart, after Elena wakes up and their baby is healthy, he will treat Elena and the baby very gently. Christian promises to do anything for both of them, two beautiful angels who are currently both struggling behind a room full of medical equipment that separates them.

However, Christian’s solemnity was disturbed by the touch of Romaria’s hand that landed on his back. Christian slowly turned his head towards Romaria who was standing with a straight face without fear.

“What is it, Romaria?” Christian asks quietly.

Christian’s words made Jack and Anne, who were looking at the prospective room where their granddaughter would live, turn to look at Christian who was now face to face with Romaria.

Instead of answering Christian’s question, Romaria surprisingly extends her hand towards Christian.

“What do you want...”

“Miss Elena’s family ring,” said Romaria quietly, cutting Christian’s words as she opened her fist which was carrying Elena’s ring that was given to her this afternoon. “Miss Elena said she wanted me to give this ring to her daughter this afternoon not long after Mr Jack left the villa.”

“What?”

“Daddy went to the villa?”

Anne and Christian spoke at the same time.

Romaria nodded slowly without taking her eyes off Christian who looked so shocked. “Yes, Miss Elena gave this ring to me because she was afraid she would not be able to see her child once she was born. Mr. Jack’s words of wanting to take the baby away from her made Miss Elena so sad. That’s why Miss Elena gave it to me. Miss Elena said she wanted the baby to know that her mother’s family had a precious inheritance, a ring that was passed down from generation to generation by her ancestors to the descendants of women in the Wilson family when they were about to get married.”

Christian’s tears fall again, his breath so clear. And it wasn’t only Christian who was in shock at Romaria’s words, everyone who heard those sad words fell silent. Except for Bertha, who immediately burst into tears, lived with Elena and witnessed how Elena went through her days, making Bertha unable to hold back her tears.

Because Christian did not quickly take the ring from above his hand, Romaria then grabbed Christian’s hand and gave it forcibly to the man.

“Roma...”

“And this is the second ring that Miss Elena gave me this afternoon.” Romaria interrupts Christian’s words without fear, her anger at Christian that can’t be contained makes Romaria lose her fear and respect for her master. Romaria opens her arms again wide in front of Christian, the diamond ring so expensive it gleams so beautifully at this moment.

“Miss Elena..sob...Miss Elena said she let go of you, she gave up and prayed for your relationship with your new partner named Charlotte.”
