Love Worth Fighting For

349 [Bonus chapter]The biggest lost

“Zwetta, is that girl a girl who has a facial resemblance to Miss Elena?”

“Yeah, she’s that girl.”

Jorge shook his head, he was at a loss for words.

“Come on, let’s go! I’m ready!” shouted Charlotte hastily.

“Let’s go to the front yard,” Erick said quietly.

Charlotte nodded her head, Charlotte hurriedly walked to the front yard ahead of Erick. Even though there is currently no Jack or Anne, Charlotte still wants to show her image as a loving and caring girl to everyone in the house. Charlotte wanted to have Erick on her side.

“Take Miss Lloyd to the hospital, make sure Miss Lloyd can meet Madam and Master,” Erick said quietly, there was a bodyguard already standing beside the car.

“Okay, I understand.”

“You’re not coming to the hospital, Erick?” asked Charlotte quietly.

.....

Eric shook his head. “I will immediately follow you to the hospital after picking up Miss Suri and Asher from the airport.”

“Suri and Asher, are they coming too?”

“Right now they are both on the plane and preparing to leave Geneva for Luxembourg, that’s why I want to go to the airport to pick them up,” Erick answered slowly, explaining the matter of Suri and Asher’s departure from Geneva.

“Oh thank God then, yes I will go now. I have to follow Auntie,” said Charlotte again.

Erick nodded his head. “Please Miss and be careful on the road.”

Charlotte nodded her head and immediately got into the car that was ready to take her to the hospital, after the car that took Charlotte left, Erick immediately got into another car to go to the airport. Even though Suri is currently traveling with Asher and the bodyguards, Erick still maintains a guard protocol to avoid things that are not desirable.

In the car, Charlotte continues to try to communicate with Christian. Even though she knows that Christian’s cell phone is currently off, Charlotte still doesn’t give up. Charlotte tries hard to show her care for Christian, Charlotte wants to make Christian realize that she is the only person who will always be by his side in difficult times like this.

“Last night the news of Elena’s death and this morning that little girl is critical,” Charlotte said to herself. “It seems that God really cares and loves me.” Charlotte’s smile widened.

“Finally those two stumbling blocks will completely disappear from my path now, my goal of becoming Christian Clarke’s one and only woman will soon be realized. My long wait is coming to an end, Christian will be back in my arms.”

Charlotte clenched her fists, her enthusiasm for getting Christian back even more burning. After overhearing news of Elena’s death from Jack last night, Charlotte had only slept three hours. In Charlotte’s room, busy doing facial and body treatments in the bathroom, Charlotte tries to beautify herself to get Christian’s attention. Charlotte is very sure that Christian will come home soon that’s why she tries to look her best but apparently God has other plans, this morning she got another good news with Luna’s deteriorating condition. Charlotte feels that if she is truly blessed, her patience and waiting to be patient waiting for Christian will end soon. Her childhood dreams will come true.

“You are mine Christ, only I deserve to be by your side. Our parallel family backgrounds will make the two of us the most phenomenal couple of this century.” Charlotte spoke to herself again. “Charlotte Lloyd Clarke, I really can’t wait to use that name. Thank God...Finally all these years of patience have paid off.”

*****

After getting off the helicopter that took him from the Paris and Luxembourg border, Christian immediately ran to Luna’s treatment room.

Thirty minutes ago when he had just reactivated his cell phone, Christian got some bad news about Luna. Using a firefighter’s helicopter, Christian heads to his family’s hospital to meet Luna. Too focused on Zwetta makes Christian forget his daughter’s condition is still unstable.

“Sir...”

“Where is Luna?” Christian asked hoarsely at Kainer who had just greeted him.

Although his condition has not fully recovered, Kainer decided to monitor Luna’s condition as soon as he heard the news that Luna had a drastic decline in her condition.

“Right now the doctors are trying to do their best for Miss Luna in the operating room, sir,” Kainer replied quietly.

Christian almost fell to the floor if he didn’t grab hold of the wheelchair that Kainer was in, feeling weak. Luna’s current deteriorating condition further worsened her mood.

“Those doctors can definitely save Miss Luna, sir. Don’t worry, Miss Luna will be fine,” Kainer added again, trying to calm Christian.

Christian doesn’t respond to Kainer’s words, right now his goal is to see Luna. With the steps being dragged by Christian walking towards the operating room which is not far from where he is currently standing, several bodyguards seem to follow Christian.

“Christian!!” With a hoarse voice Charlotte called out Christian’s name who had just appeared.

Suddenly Jack and Anne who were sitting side by side turned to Christian, their faces both looked so sad and worried.

Christian who is currently only thinking about Luna, ignores everyone, including Charlotte who tries to hug him.

“Christ...” Charlotte hoars softly, she looks disappointed after Christian ignores her.

“I want to see Luna,” Christian says quietly. “Don’t get in my way.”

Anne lowers her head, Christian’s words make her chest ache even more. Jack, who was still in much better shape from processing, got up from the chair he was sitting in and walked over to his son who looked so devastated.

“Doctor Kimmy and doctor Pia are working hard inside, they can definitely help Luna,” said Jack quietly.

“What happened to her, Dad? Hasn’t she gotten better over the past week?”

Jack clenched his fists, trying to hold back his tears. Christian’s muffled hoarse voice was so painful to hear that it broke him, Jack felt like a failure for hurting his son so badly.

“Daddy doesn’t know either, last night her condition was still stable. Let’s just pray, Daddy’s sure Luna will be able to get through this like she used to. Luna is a strong and smart child,” Jack answered slowly.

Christian is leaning against the wall, currently in a very chaotic state. His head felt so heavy it couldn’t be used to think, all the problems that came were too heavy. First Elena then Zwetta and then Luna.

Unable to bear to see his son’s condition so injured, Jack then grabbed Christian’s body and hugged him tightly. Jack doesn’t care if Christian rejects him, all he can think of right now is to give his son full support.

“I..I can’t lose Luna, Dad,” Christian says hoarsely. “Elena, she hasn’t met her yet. Elena hasn’t seen her child, Dad.”

Jack tightened his arms. “Shhh... don’t talk nonsense, Luna will be fine. Luna can definitely get through this, she’s a strong and smart girl, Christ.”

“I hope so.. I hope so, Dad.”

Right after Christian shuts his mouth, the door to the operating room where Luna is receiving treatment opens, surprisingly. The two doctors who treated Luna appeared at the same time.

“Doctor, how is Luna’s condition?” Anne screamed loudly, Anne being the first to see the two doctors appear.

Hearing Anne’s voice, everyone’s attention turned to Doctor Pia and Doctor Kimmy who had just removed the medical masks from their faces.

“Doc..”

“I’m sorry Mr. Clarke, we were not able to make Luna fight again,” said Doctor Kimmy quietly. “Luna died a minute before we took action.”

Anne covered her mouth with both hands, tears welled up in her eyes. While Jack immediately fell to the floor, he looked so shocked to hear of Luna’s death.

“Luna has struggled for a very long time, she’s a great child,” added Doctor Pia quietly, responding to Doctor Kimmy’s words. “With all the special circumstances she was born with, being able to survive this far is a great achievement.”

“Luna...Luna...”

“Aunty.”

Charlotte, who had prepared everything well, immediately hugged Anne’s body tightly, she didn’t want to waste a good opportunity like this to carry out her actions.

“Luna is a calm Aunty, she has recovered and is no longer sick now. Luna will be happy playing in heaven,” Charlotte said again as she continued to tighten her arms on Anne’s body.

Brak...

The bag Suri was carrying fell to the floor.

Everyone including Charlotte who was playing her role suddenly turned towards the source of the sound.

Suri, who had just arrived, looked so shocked to hear Charlotte’s words, her chest heaving up and down from running from the first floor was clearly visible.

“Can anyone explain to me what Charlotte means?” said Suri hoarsely with tears that had flowed into rivers.

Anne removed Charlotte’s hand from her body and walked over to Suri who was standing behind Kainer’s wheelchair.

“Mom...answer me!” Suri stepped back, trying to avoid her mother’s touch.

“What’s wrong Suri?” Asher, who had just arrived, asked breathlessly, following Suri who ran from the first floor to exhaust his strength. “Aunty, what’s wrong?”

Anne’s tears flowed again, her tongue suddenly felt numb. She was unable to answer Asher’s question.

Seeing Anne cry made Asher frown, he was confused by Anne’s attitude. Out of curiosity, Asher then turned his gaze to the back of Anne where everyone was currently gathered. Seeing the state of Jack who was still kneeling on the floor with his head down immediately made Asher’s intelligent brain work.

“Luna...is it Luna?”

“Yes, Luna died,” said Anne, barely audible.

“Jesus.” Asher covered his mouth.

Hearing her mother’s words made Suri cry again, Suri, who had been crying the whole flight, shed tears again. Suri who is still wracked with guilt for what has been done to Elena looks so shocked, Luna’s death is one of the things she is very afraid of. Seeing Suri crying made Asher immediately grab her into a hug, Asher, who knew how much regret Suri had kept for months, chose to calm her down.

While everyone was crying over Luna’s death, Christian was the only one who had not shed tears. The look of fear that had lingered on his face a moment ago disappeared, replaced with an unreadable expression as soon as Doctor Kimmy announced the news of Luna’s death.

“Doctor...”

“Yes, young master.” Doctor Kimmy, who had been watching Christian for a long time, immediately answered Christian’s words quickly.

“May I come in and see my baby?”
