Chapter 166 - Hold On
It was now the weekend and April and Aarna had arranged to meet with one another to go shopping.
Eric was currently following April and Aarna through the busy mall when he noticed a beautiful woman sitting on a bench.
He inwardly whistled and stared at her. She wasn\'t as beautiful as his boss but she was a beauty non the less, too bad I am currently working he thought.
Because his attention was diverted, he did not notice the woman who almost knocked into April.
When he turned his attention back to his boss, it was already too late. Aarna was already being held by Lucy as she aimed a gun towards April.
\'F*ck\' he cursed inwardly.
The people surrounding them screamed and ran for cover when they saw the gun in Lucy\'s hand.
Eric wanted to smack himself for being a useless guard. He slowly walked around the back of Lucy, trying to avoid her from detecting his presence. But she had already noticed the tall and broad guard. She laughed mechanically "Hey, you think I don\'t see you. Don\'t you dare move or I will pull the trigger."
Eric froze. He saw that the other guard\'s joseph had arranged where approaching.
"Are you one of Dean\'s guards? You are so useless you didn\'t even see me approaching." She snickered adding to Eric\'s shame.
Eric was angry. He was one of the best that Dean had hired and yet he was being labelled as useless by a crazy psychopath.
"Lucy release Aarna… It\'s me you want not my friend… Release her and I will come with you willingly… Please don\'t involve others… You want me not her." April was panicking her dear pregnant friend might get hurt and it would be all her fault.
April then walked slowly towards Aarna and Lucy, with her hands out to show she was vulnerable and not trying anything.
"Ah no April run!! No!! Leave me and run!!" Aarna screamed at April. They were both pregnant and she worried for her friend and her baby.
Lucy laughed mockingly as she pulled Aarna closer. "Stop, stop right there. Clear the way." She wanted Aarna so she could control April. She knew by capturing Aarna April would follow her orders.
April stopped her footsteps she held her stomach unconsciously. She didn\'t know how to save Aarna, Lucy\'s actions were unpredictable.
"Why are you stopping move!" Lucy yelled, she waved the gun around in the air.
"Lucy please just let Aarna go… please… stop this… I beg you… Don\'t hurt Aarna…" Although Aarna was being held at gunpoint, she knew that Lucy wanted to hurt April and not herself. Aarna shook her head towards April as she tried to reassure her that she was okay and not to move.
"B*tch stop blabbering and clear the way!" Lucy yelled again she was losing patience.
Indeed Lucy\'s plan was to shoot April and use Aarna as her hostage to escape being arrested.
April continued to beg for her friend, "let Aarna go… please… stop this… I beg you…"
"Shut up... shut up… Shut up!!!" Screamed Lucy as she turned the gun towards April.
April instinctually placed her hand over her abdomen.
Lucy\'s eyes were full of madness but she noticed April\'s small gesture. "You\'re pregnant? Ahahaha… You\'re pregnant!!" She screamed and glared at April\'s stomach.
"It should be me, I should be living in the Davis manor, I should have beautiful expensive clothing and be having his baby. It should be me!! Me!" She then lowered the gun in the direction of April\'s abdomen.
"I will kill that baby before it has a chance to breathe!" She yelled.
*Bang*
April closed her eyes and wrapped both of her arms around her stomach protectively when suddenly she smelt a very familiar scent.
She felt her body against a firm chest.
She opened her eyes and saw Dean embracing her.
"Dean…" She whispered. She choked and tears fell from her emerald eyes as she stared at the man she loved.
"Im not late this time." Dean smiled as he was relieved he was there to save her in this lifetime. But his face darkened as blood then suddenly trickled out of his mouth.
"Aghh!" April screamed. She held Dean closer to her as she felt his grip on her loosen. "Dean… please… please don\'t leave me."
April held onto Dean as they both slid to the floor, she panicked.
Lucy stood with her mouth agape, she didn\'t predict this outcome. She let go of Aarna and Aarna fell into a guard awaiting arms.
"My angel I am so glad I was here to save you… this time I was here for you… I can finally say that I saved you… cough…cough." Dean gazed up at his love and confessed.
"You saved me a long time ago don\'t say that." April sobbed, "You will be okay… everything will be okay. We will get you to the hospital." She looked up to Aarna, "Phone Zane." She pleaded in between sobs.
Aarna was in shock but as she heard her friends request she took out her phone and rang Zane, her hands were shaking as she waited for him to answer.
Dean was losing consciousness but he raised his hand as he tried to touch her face, but he only managed it halfway. She gripped his hand and held it to her face, "Dean hold on… we haven\'t met our baby yet… Don\'t leave me alone again." She sobbed.
April continued to sob and crashed into Dean\'s chest as she saw his eyes close. She let out a heart wrenching scream.
Aarna who had just spoken with Zane then rushed to her side and held her, "It\'ll be okay. Zane is on the way April."
April couldn\'t hear her friend as she sobbed into Dean\'s chest. It was all her fault, he shouldn\'t have had to save her in any lifetime.. They had so much to live for and look forward to.
