Broken And Pregnant novel Chapter 44

Lucy looks confused. What money is her father talking about? Now she remembered. 

"Dad, you mean--you lend money from them again?" Lucy asked her dad. 

Raphael didn't answer. He shifted his gaze at the thugs. 

"Set her free please!" He repeated. 

Their faces were covered by bonnets so it's hard to recognize them. 

They quickly grabbed their hands when Raphael quickly shoved Brian on his balls and Lucy bit Neil's hands. 

"Ahhhh!" Neil shouted and Brian whimpered in pain too. He stumbled on the ground holding his balls. 

Rey quickly pushed Raphael off the bridge and he pulled the trigger next to him. 

Lucy saw it. He shot her dead. Raphael told his daughter to run before he ffinally falls on the high bridge down the deep-running river. 

"Dad!" Lucy screamed when she lost sight of her father. 

She looked around and everything went dark. Her legs trembled and her heart tightened. She's trying to catch her breath but she feels like she's dying too. 

An ambulance came and they check her pulse and heart rate. 

"Is she still breathing?" One of the paramedics asked the other one. 

"Yes. She's fine. I think she was shocked!" He replied while injecting her the first aid.

So she was Lucy. She was my brother's, first love. He only used and betrayed her. Poor gorgeous lady. How did she end up falling for him? That bastard and brat! Don't worry pretty lady, if you will fall for me, I promise that you won't regret it.

They stop at one of the hospitals in town, The Medicare Hospital. I hid from Gregory because I'm sure he will recognize me even we didn't meet for five years. When dad forced me to marry Adriana, actually my late Adriana because she died two years ago with leukemia not long before I met my new girlfriend in the states.

I followed them and they stop at room 05. Someone close to her got admitted inside. As far as I recalled, Gregory mentioned that they will check her father. So Lucy's father was hospitalized but why? Is he sick? Did he have an accident?

I quickly went to the information desk to check about the patient in room 05. I decided to pretend as her boyfriend.
