Substitute Bride For Young Master
Chapter 25's
Rafael has not had time to reply to Lorie's words, Billy's voice first heard.
"I've never beaten a girl, what's a teenager like this. But for your daughter .. That's the exception."
In an instant, the sound of a punch was heard accompanied by the cry of Princess Rafael from the phone that was still on.
“Ampun! Papa! Pain .... Forgiveness ... pain ..”
The sound of blows and the sobs of his daughter made Rafael almost crazy. Body stiffens. He looked at Lorie with a pleading and heartbreaking expression, then crawled up like a baby and walked up to the woman.
With a very quick movement, Rafael took off his suit to cover Lorie's body, but the woman hissed and glared.
“Remove this garbage,” said Lorie while gritting her teeth, making the nausea again whack. He closed his eyes and lay still, not wanting to talk to Rafael again.
Raphael bowed his head and touched the floor.
“Nona, I beg for your mercy, forgive me .. If you do not forgive me, they will sell my daughter to a syndicate abroad,” the man said in a trembling voice.
He then glanced at his men and gave the order, “Quick on his knees and apologize!”
Simultaneously the burly men laid down their weapons and followed the actions of the leader. They kneeled behind Rafael and saluted him many times.
“Nona, forgive our sassness.”
“Please forgive us.”
“Nona, please hit us.”
The sounds like the buzzing of the bees were heard overlapping, making Lorie's head feel even more throbbing pain.
“Diam.”
That one word instantly made everyone shut up. No one dared to move or speak anymore, including Rafael.
However, the silence did not last long as a dozen troops in semi-military uniforms burst into the room and headed straight for Lorie. One person immediately spread out a cloth to cover Lorie's body, then two people immediately moved her body very carefully onto the stretcher.
The only woman in the squad immediately checked Lorie's pulse and directed the light from the small flashlight into her eyes. The motion of the unfocused pupil made the woman frown. Looking at Lorie's condition, he could not imagine what kind of torment she had gone through.
“Captain, we will move you soon,” the woman said as she opened the box she was carrying and injected painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs. He then hooked the infusion bottle on a buffer and stuck it with the folds of the blanket so that Lorie's head was higher than her feet.
The captain?
The entire men who were still kneeling glanced at each other. If that woman is the captain, is this one company of troops his men? Secretly they shuddered in horror, imagining what kind of retaliation they would get.
“Captain—“
“Quick.”
One of the troops advanced and gave his weapon into Lorie's hands.
“Thomas,” call him.
The man in the parka jacket advanced very slowly and approached Lorie.
“Go from here.”
“Thank you, Miss.” The man bowed deeply before darting out. He felt very grateful for being able to escape the terrible retaliation.
“Rafael,” call Lorie again very slowly, but it sounds like a lightning strike in the man's ear.
His legs trembled slightly as he stood up and faced Lorie. Indeed, he did not expect that Alex Smith would ask people to hold his only daughter hostage from the dormitory to be exchanged for Lorie. Vivian is her only precious gem. His daughter is only 16 years old! He would do anything for the safety of his daughter.
Lorie's hand holding the weapon seemed to tremble slightly, but she pointed it at Rafael and took aim. As the trigger was pulled, the sound of a gun barking sounded almost simultaneously with a sick roar that sounded from Rafael's mouth. The man rolled on the floor while holding the base of his bloodied thigh.
Dor.
Dor.
Two bullets shot through the man's kneecap with precision, making Rafael howl firmer and roll on the floor.
“Don't let him die, nor his men .. I'm not done yet,” Lorie's message before closing eyes.
He felt very tired. The rest of his power he used. Now he felt like he was floating in a giant water tube. Can't hear anything clearly. Darkening view. The feeling of heat gnawing at his body, like there were hundreds of centipedes that were poking their venomous fangs together, was really painful.
As the long passageway passed finally changed with the expanse of star-studded night sky, Lorie was delirious. His eyes suddenly opened wide while muttering obscure sentences. However, before long, the moonlight he saw slowly faded away, then a dense darkness enveloped him.
“Captain!” exclaim the woman who walked on the side of the stretcher carrying Lorie.
He panicked when he touched the leader's forehead. The surface of the patient's skin Lorie feels like embers, even though he has given the drug in high doses. The woman then gave orders that the man carrying the stretcher walk faster towards the helicopter.
There is no time left, if it is too late .. he cannot guarantee whether Vice CEO Lorie who is the captain of the shadow army 01 will survive or not.
“Captain, hang on, you should see how Mr. Alex and Billy will flatten Drun Indsutry with the ground.”
