"Lucas!!"
Serra was surprised to see Lucas appear in front of her. Did he see everything? Did she see what she just did? Then how will he judge her after this? Serra really doesn't know how Lucas will judge him, he can only pray that the man doesn't see everything.
"Why so tense, did you just make a mistake?" Lucas asked while patting Serra's brown head.
The woman's hurry shook her head. "No, I didn't do anything. Don't think nothing of me, okay. Yes already, you just continue chatting, Jia and I are still not satisfied to enjoy the dish here. Jia, let's try the other food too." Then Serra pulled Jia away from her husband.
Lucas snorted amusedly at the manner of his wife. Although he saw everything, but Lucas deliberately did not say anything to Serra. Because he didn't want to make that woman feel good for him.
"Sir, it seems you have misjudged, Madam. She was not a weak woman that was easy to bully, and judging by the way she slammed the man, it seemed like the martial arts she had were no joke." Frans said and distracted Lucas from Serra who was enjoying a party meal with Jia.
Lucas nodded. "You're right. She was indeed not a careless woman, and it seemed like all this time I had underestimated her too." Lucas chimed in.
Nonetheless. But Lucas still can not take his hands off. Serra may have mastered a very extraordinary martial technique, but she is still a woman. Lucas will do his best to protect him.
"Stay watch over them, I say hello to the others first."
"Good, Sir."

A suspicious man was seen pacing between the luxury cars. His gaze looked around him, ascertaining whether things were truly safe or not.
And when he felt safe, he immediately approached a metallic black sedan car and damaged the brakes. Not wanting the action to be caught let alone known by the owner of the car, he immediately left the place and entered the silver car parked across the street.
"How, have you done it?" Ask a man who is sitting behind the wheel.
"Beres, let's get out of here before anyone sees us." Her speech.
The man nodded. Immediately he restarted his car engine and drove away. Their work went smoothly, and tonight they can party enjoying the results of their work tonight.

The show's over. All the invited guests flocked to leave the party hall, including Serra and Lucas. Since it was past midnight, it would not be wrong if Serra started to be unable to maintain her consciousness. Seen several times he yawned holding back the drowsiness.
"Why? Sleepy?" Serra nodded. Then Lucas led Serra's head to lean on his right shoulder. "Now go to sleep, I'll wake you when I get to you." Her speech.
Serra nodded again. "All right."
The sedan began to drive towards the highway. At first there was nothing wrong with the car. But the longer, the driver felt something was wrong with his car. The car he was driving at high speed was not controllable and the brakes were not working either.
He looked back and found Lucas closing his eyes. Seeing his master fall asleep, he felt bad to wake him up. As much as possible the man was calm and tried to control the speed of the vehicle he was driving. Suddenly though...
BRAAAKKKK!!!!!!
Lucas and Serra are both shocked when they feel a loud bang, Lucas cradles his body when the car they are riding in overturns several times. Suddenly they felt the earth spinning and everything being turned upside down.
The black sedan overturned after avoiding the crash with a fully loaded truck advancing from the opposite direction. The driver swerved to the right and instead made the car overturned several times and dragged until meters forward.
Lucas who was still half conscious heard the sound of glass breaking and moaning from the front, from the steering chair more precisely. Then his gaze turned to Serra who was unconscious in his arms. There was not the slightest injury to his face, due to Lucas' embrace protecting him. But his legs are not okay, his legs are pinched.
"Serra, wake. Tell me if you're okay" Lucas said, patting Serra on the cheek. But there was no answer, and it made Lucas very panicked and quick.
Seeing the crowd in-sana, Lucas immediately asked them for help to escape his wife and driver to the hospital.
And Lucas won't forgive himself if anything bad happens to Serra. He will also hunt down people who have caused this accident until they can and retaliate accordingly.

"We need to talk, sir. And this news that I'm about to tell you will probably hurt your feelings can also make your wife slump." The doctor said with a bad heart.
Lucas squinted both of his eyes. "What do you mean?" He looked at the doctor curious.
"Sorry, Sir. With a heavy heart I have to say this. There's a chance that your wife will experience paralysis."
Lucas felt his knee weaken hearing what the doctor said. Paralyzed? How he could deliver such a painful thing to Serra, Lucas did not want to see his wife until it was destroyed after learning how he was currently in his condition.
"Then can he still be healed, Doc? For example, with therapy and so on?" Ask Lucas to make sure.
"I can't determine it either, sir. The probability is very small." The answer.
Lucas remained silent. Can't, he can't let Serra slump alone after knowing her current state. She must have been devastated to find out that she couldn't walk anymore. And Lucas has to do something so Serra doesn't get too down with the way he is.
"Doctor, can you help me. Rub one of my eyes with a bandage, and tell him that I'm not okay either. Tell him that the accident not only made him lose his ability to walk, but also made me lose one of my visions!!"
The doctor was surprised to hear Lucas' request. Is this not too excessive, pretending to make things balanced so that his wife does not fall into her current state. And so much love Lucas had for Serra that he was willing to do anything for her.
Lucas could have pretended to be completely paralyzed or blind. But if he did, how could he be a leg for Serra later. And if he were to pretend to be completely blind, how could he protect Serra from those who wanted to oppress him?!
Indeed only that one way is the most appropriate and reasonable for him to take as the right decision. Because Lucas can engineer his own eye condition so Serra believes he's not in good shape either.

The eyelids opened slowly. The first thing he saw was a figure he was very familiar with. Yeah, and that guy is Lucas.
"Lu, where are we?" Serra asked confusedly.
"Hospital, we had an accident last night. And you were unconscious all night" Lucas explained.
Serra tried to move her body but could not. And it freaked him out, then his gaze rolled on Lucas. "Lu, what's wrong with my leg? Why can't it be moved?" Serra asked with a trembling voice.
Lucas clasped Serra's hand and locked his gaze. "Serra, you can't walk anymore. You, you're in paralysis. Your legs are pinched and that's what makes you paralyzed!!"
Jlederr..
As if struck by lightning during the day, Serra's heart was shattered into pieces hearing Lucas' words. Her tears could not be contained anymore, Serra cried so badly.
"No, Lu. I don't want to be paralyzed, I don't want to be a useless person. I don't want to, I want my legs to be normal again. I want to be able to walk again, I don't want to be paralyzed!!"
Lucas held Serra tightly. Blending the woman spilled all her sadness on her shoulder. Lucas's chin rested on Serra's brown head.
"Quiet, Honey. Calm yourself, please don't cry anymore. If you don't want to be paralyzed, I don't want to lose one of my eyes either." Speak Lucas and wake Serra up.
Suddenly the woman lifted her face from Lucas' embrace and found a bandage rubbing her left eye. Serra hadn't noticed it since. The bandage was also wrapped around his forehead, there were blood spots on the surface of the bandage.
"Lu, i...this?"
Lucas nodded. "Yes, Honey. The accident made me lose my left eye, there was a piece of glass that went in and stabbed it causing severe bleeding." Lucas.
Serra smiled blandly. "What that means now that we're both an imperfect couple. Isn't this very funny," Serra bit her lower lip to dampen her stuffing. Lucas once again took Serra into his arms and held her as before.
Both of Serra's parents and her brother are currently overseas. That's why they didn't appear at the hospital accompanying Serra. But that doesn't mean Lucas hasn't contacted them, and it's likely that the three of them are already on their way home.
