The atmosphere was getting tense, the Councils present each at the stake with guns right in their heads. But Nic somehow since when he disappeared, while Ken is the same as the others he got a gun at the head of the back of the head, Ken, moreover, he was not free to move because of the injuries he got the other day.
Dor...! The hysterical screams of the women made the atmosphere even more gripping, when he saw a bodyguard Richard shot dead for trying to get out of the room. Richard growled with anger, his hands clenched firmly, his eyes glaring sharply at Martin.
"You said you just wanted my life, let them go let them go." Martin laughed, as if what Richard said was funny.
"You think I'm a fool, where I might let them go, let them accompany you in hell!" Brak...!! A dozen armed men from the police force burst in, some entered by breaking the door some also entered by breaking the window glass, they were hanging with a rope tied around his waist.
"Lift hand! Take your weapons off!" Shouted the police command, inevitably they put their weapons on the floor because they were outnumbered by the police.
Martin frowned his face with his eyes fixed on Richard, he crouched down slowly about to lay down a weapon, but unexpectedly without anyone noticing it, Dor...! He shot Richard right in the chest, causing everyone to panic and a second shot was heard and Martin was sprawled by a shot he got from one of the police personnel.
Bruk...!! Richard fell backwards with his chest covered in blood. Instantly Ken ran to support his body, "Richard, stay awake don't sleep!" Nic came in with a panicked face, a state that seemed as chaotic as Richard's view before he finally lost consciousness completely.

The operating room light is still on, the sign of operation is still directly in there. Nic walked back and forth in front of the door, occasionally leaning his back against the wall, while Shelia had tears unceasingly drenching the middle-aged woman's cheeks. Bad thoughts, immediately spinning in his head, he was afraid Richard would not survive, he was afraid Richard would leave him, he somehow lived his life if Richard left. He really couldn't imagine all that happening.
'God please save him, I can't live without him.' Shelia sobbed softly.
"Let's calm, Shelia, I'm sure Richard will be fine, he's a strong man, he won't just die." Said Daren who just came with Anna.
Anna touched Shelia's shoulder and sat down beside her, "Anna I'm afraid, I'm afraid Richard isn't safe" Sheia sobbed in Anna's arms.
"Don't think badly of Shelia, I'm sure Richard will be fine." Anna reassured as she rubbed Shelia's back soothingly.
"But the doctor said, the bullet almost hit his heart and I still don't know how it is." Shelia sobbed softly.
"That's just a near miss, the bullet didn't hit his heart, rest assured there's still hope!" Anna clasped Shelia's hand and looked at her confidently, so that Shelia would not be disoriented.
One night passed, finally the operating room lights went out, indicating the event in the room was over, Shelia who had not closed her eyes since last night, swiftly got up and approached, waiting for the door to open. Everyone stared at it, waiting for the same thing.
The door was opened and the doctor's face was exhausted, "The condition of the patient is stable, we managed to remove the bullet lodged in his chest, the patient will be transferred to the treatment room later in the day." The doctor gave a report. Everyone was unceasingly grateful, Shelia several times thanked the Doctor and promised to give compensation to this hospital if Richard recovered later.

However, a news broadcast on television that there is a supermarket that attracts his attention. A news report aired about the shooting incident at the famous Nelson family owned company, which made Richard Nelson a victim to hospital with severe injuries.
"Until now we have no progress on Mr. Richard's condition, how he is and how badly he has been injured, but we have been told that the shooting suspect is his own uncle Martin Nelson, the fugitive decades ago, who is now an illegal drug and firearm dealer. But the suspect died on the spot because the officer's firearm." The reporter spoke.
Khanza's eyes puffed up instantly, "Master Richard was hurt, Mami and Nic must have been very sad, Oh my God I hope Mr. Richard is okay, he's a good person, protect him." Khanza prayed with teary eyes. He was so surprised by the news.
Khanza returned home in a taxi, with a lot of groceries, he then entered.
"Do I have to call Mami and ask about Mr Richard's situation? Or did I call Nic? No-no, I don't dare talk to them." Khanza nibbled on his fingernails feeling a dilemma.
"I feel really worried, but who should I call?" Khanza was pacing back and forth thinking, suddenly a name came up in his brain.
"More!" khanza messed with his phone looking for Ren's mobile number, even though he had replaced the prepaid card on his phone, but the contact number on the phone he did not throw away at all.
With his heart beating fast and breathing irregular, Khanza ventured to call Renaldi's mobile number.
Tuuut...Tuuu!!
The phone call was connected, Ren did not pick it up long enough until Khanza repeated the call several times, but when Khanza wanted to end the call, Ren suddenly picked it up.
[Hello, who is this?] Ren asked from a phone call, but Khanza remained silent.
[Hello, do you hear me?] Ren sounded impatient.
[If you don't have any important business, I'll hang up.] Firmly Ren with an annoyed tone.
"R-Ren, i-this is me Khanza." Khanza said with trembling lips.
[Khanza!] Ren sounded a loud scream, [You've been anywhere, why call me now? You know how anxious we are, you just disappeared? Tell me where you are now, are you okay?] Ren flocked Khanza with various questions making Khanza not have a chance to talk at all.
