The Love Trap of the Ruler.
Chapter 260.
Graciella was staring straight ahead. Revealing when they would get to the mainland immediately looked towards Xavier when he felt his hand being pulled by the man. Graciella just scrunched her face looking at the wistful smile from Xavier.
Xavier let go of their hands. Move it to Graciella's cheek that feels warm or indeed because her hand feels cold now.
When Xavier's hand touched his cheek. It instantly induced Graciella's tears to come straight out. He could feel the warmth melting straight from the corner of his eyes that passed through his cheeks. He did not like the feeling of sadness that suddenly appeared just like that.
Xavier wiped away the tears while shaking his head as a sign that Graciella would not cry. They could not speak to each other, because the sound of the helicopter propeller was too loud. Xavier's not wearing his headphones right now. Graciella took her breath. He immediately wiped away the tears that kept coming out even though he did not want Xavier to be happy. She certainly doesn't want her husband to see her cry right now. Graciella just pressed her lips together so that her tears would no longer come out and put her cheeks back into Xavier's palms.
Xavier saw that it only raised one corner of his lips. He wanted to calm his wife down so as not to worry and worry. He was afraid that stress would make Graciella content will be problematic and later make this woman also feel the pain. But it turns out that what he made instead made Graciella cry. Graciella kissed Xavier's palm and tried to smile even though it made her tears flow again. Xavier will be fine.
Their journey is not too long. The helicopter landed at one of the hospitals that had a nearby helipad. As soon as they land, Arnold and Sebastian, who are with them, drop Xavier's stretcher and take Xavier directly to the IGD. Graciella followed from behind slowly. However, he began to feel tension again in his stomach. He has to choose, Xavier or the content. Xavier must have been angry if anything happened to his womb, so Greciella prefers the content now. There were two people who had taken care of Xavier anyway.
When Graciella gets there. He immediately asked the nurse to give him a wheelchair. He then sees Arnold and Sebastian waiting outside the IGD room.
“What's up?” ask Graciella. Trying to calm himself so that the tension in his stomach decreases. He had to regulate his breathing.
“They will immediately perform an operation to remove the bullet from the body of General Xavier Madam. Sorry, if I signed the approval letter,” Arnold reported. Feeling had to do it quickly while Graciella had not seen the trunk of her nose earlier.
“Nothing, it should indeed be done.”
Just now Graciella said that. The IGD door was opened. Some nurses and doctors immediately pushed Xavier's body, which had been infused with some of his needs. They must immediately take Xavier to the operating room.
“Arnold, just follow General Xavier. I'll help Madam. We will be coming soon,” Sebastian said. Of course he's in the lead here. After Xavier, Sebastian's rank was higher than Arnold's.
“Siap.” Arnold immediately followed the group of doctors. Graciella just looked at them until they disappeared.
“Mistress, I will take you there,” Sebastian said as if asking permission to take Graciella there. She feels a little confused with Graciella.
“Thank you,” replied Graciella.
“Sama-sama Mistress.” Sebastian pushed back Graciella's wheelchair.
All the way to that operating room. Graciella tried to calm her mind. He knew Xavier's state would be fine since he was dealt with straight away. But even though he's a doctor and knows about it. His anxiety still could not be suppressed.
The surgery room is on the second floor of the hospital. They stopped immediately when they saw Arnold, who was again just standing anxiously in front of a door.
“Report, General is being handled.” Arnold immediately gave a report when he saw Sebastian and Graciella.
“Good. We just have to wait.” Sebastian positions Graciella to get a comfortable place to wait for Xavier to be operated on.
They waited quietly. Everything seemed anxious and quite tense. It also makes Graciella difficult to control herself. It was fortunate that he continued to sit down and did not force himself to stand up. Slowly the tension has reduced.
About an hour and forty minutes. The blurry glass double door in front of them finally opened. Xavier's bed was pushed immediately by the nurses. The doctor who was wearing the difference set clothes finally appeared.
“I am his wife,” Graciella said directly.
“Are you also injured?” the doctor asked to see Graciella in the wheelchair.
“I was pregnant and my obstetrician said that I should not move much because I almost had a miscarriage. Therefore I should be in this wheelchair.” Graciella explained immediately. The doctor heard him just nod in understanding, though,
“Then. You can accompany your husband to be treated together. It would be better,” The doctor immediately laughed after saying it. Graciella felt it was a pretty good idea even though she knew this doctor was also just joking at first.
Graciella looked towards Xavier who was still asleep. He must have been completely sedated to retrieve the bullet earlier. Eventually, Graciella decides to also be treated in one room with Xavier. Besides he can rest as his doctor says. He can also take care of Xavier.
Graciella had just been in the air when Xavier started moving. Xavier was conscious in the observation room after the surgery. But because of the drug's effects it's still there and probably exhausted. He's back to sleep.
When he woke up again. He tried to very open his eyes which of course was still heavy. He looked blurred towards the dim surroundings. There's only one she wants to see right now, Graciella.
“Xavier?”
The voice made Xavier instantly shift his gaze looking for the source of the sound. He blinked his eyes a few times to see. When he turned his face to the right. She could see Graciella who had half-raised her body on the treatment bed that was placed next to her.
Xavier frowned and his face immediately looked anxious. “What happened to you?” xavier asked as he extended his right hand. Trying to reach Graciella which is not too far away. Just separate little nightstand.
Xavier thinks Graciella is back on the attack given what happened to her all night. Though he absolutely must not experience stress and must rest completely. He also thought maybe that was the reason Graciella was now being treated with him.
“I'm fine.” Graciella caught the hand of her husband who kept trying to reach Graciella. Though the infusion needle stuck on the back of his hand. Graciella became grumpy herself seeing it.
“Then?” xavier looked at his wife. His eyes are still soft. They seem forced to stay open.
“Your surgeon advised me to be treated with you. Not that I should rest. So I guess I can rest and also take care of you at the same time.” Graciella grasped Xavier's hand gently. Their hands hang between the hospital beds.
Xavier heard it immediately showed his leg face. But again he felt heavy in his eyes. The effects of this dope were truly extraordinary to him.
“Is it still sleepy?” ask Graciella who understands.
Xavier just nodded. “We rest together, yes?” bring Xavier. I couldn't bear to close my eyes.
“Ya.” Graciella was soon stretched out, but her hand was instead held tightly by Xavier.
“Do not worry. Adrean will never bother us again. I've already finished it.” Xavier squeezes Graciella's hand a little hard.
Graciella who had been staring at the ceiling looked back at Xavier. It seemed that the man was rummaging before actually falling asleep. But I heard what Xavier said. Graciella just wishes it were true.
