The atmosphere outside the room that had been quiet now began to boisterous. Dozens of people in all-black suits complete with glasses and earphones in their ears approached the source of the sound.
Hera collapsed to the floor as her husband's body collapsed. Alex, the man got a shot on his waist. Just as he and Hera were about to get out of the room, Alex accidentally saw Andrew from the mirror outside the room. His eyes were round as Andrew turned the gun towards his wife. And at the moment Andrew pulled the trigger, Alex pulled his wife's arm and held her tight. The first bullet missed. But the second bullet landed successfully on Alex's waist. Some of the people Julieta sent into the room. They took the gun from Andrew's hand and dragged the bloodied body out of the room.
"Alex! Sweetheart! listen me! don't close your eyes hmmm... I'm here I'll help you. You're gonna be okay." Hera did say that sentence smoothly. However, his hands also shook violently. Her right hand was trying to suppress the gunshot wound on her husband's waist. While his left hand was still holding Alex's head on his lap.
Alex smiles. Although the gunshot wound made all of her body ache, she still tried to look strong in Hera's eyes. "Don't cry baby! I'll be fine" Alex said, wiping away Hera's tears. "I promised you that we will have many children and will live a very long time! Uhukkk... " The tears that came out of Hera's eyes grew even more intense when she saw the husband she loved spewing blood from her mouth. Hera shaking. His chest was getting tighter and he was getting harder and harder to breathe. "Don't talk anymore. Save all the energy you have to maintain your consciousness. Hixss... I love you so much Alex!" said Hera with great difficulty." Alex has trouble opening his eyes. "I... More Men Cin Ta Imu dear." Alex's hand that was stroking his wife's cheek drooped down. His eyes closed and in the end all his consciousness was gone.
"Don'tk..." Shouted Hera. "Don't leave me Alex. I promise I'll be better, I'll love you more. I too will be a good wife. Don't go, open your eyes, baby!" Hera's head bowed as she tried to hug her husband.
"Bring him now!" tae Jun's word to the medics who have arrived at the site. He stared at the scene before his eyes. His eldest son was unconscious in his daughter-in-law's lap. And Tae Jun also grimaced as he looked at the blood on the floor as well as at the clothes Hera was wearing.
"Father!" said Hera softly while staring at Tae Jun. The middle-aged man approached his son-in-law and hugged her tightly. "Hikss... Pa, Alex, Alex Pa...."
"Yes, baby, you know. The medics took him to the hospital. He'll be fine." Tae Jun felt so hurt watching his favorite son-in-law sobbing. He knew these two people he cared about so much needed each other. He was also worried about his son's circumstances. But seeing Hera tormented like this she was getting more and more hurt.
"Come baby! we have to go to the hospital" Tae Jun said, holding both of his daughter-in-law's shoulders and helping her to stand up. Hera silences when Tae Jun breaks her out of Andrew's villa. His gaze was empty. Alex's shadow that might have left him kept spinning over his head until he felt his brain boil and was about to explode right then and there. Her tears continued to flow even though the sobbing was already inaudible.
Tae Jun looked at his son-in-law. His hands were stretched out to cleanse the blood that was in Hera's palm. "Don't worry baby, Alex loves you so much. He won't leave easily, I'm sure he will survive. He's a strong man."
Hera looked into her in-laws eyes. He really hoped that what Tae Jun said was the truth. She was still silent as Tae Jun cleaned Alex's blood with his handkerchief. They're in Tae Jun's car right now. While all Julieta's men have brought the son of a bitch who made Alex wretched to the hospital. If you think they took Andrew to a public hospital. You're wrong, because in fact, Julieta told her people to take Andrew to a special hospital that her organization has.

"Herah!" call Jessica when she sees her daughter-in-law is weakly bowed in the waiting chair in front of the operating room. Hera looks up. "Mama!" call him with a weak sura. Hera stood up then hugged her mother-in-law's body tightly. "Hikss... Mom, Alex... He was hurt trying to protect me. I hate her so much Ma. He should have let me get hurt. Her.. Hiksss. He's so stupid Ma..." Jessica let out a long sigh when she heard the babbling of her daughter-in-law. He was also very scared when he heard Alex was rushed to the hospital.
"I know baby, now sit down! you must be so tired hmmm..." Hera shook her head. However, Jessica kept pushing her daughter-in-law's shoulders and sat Hera back down. Jessica turned to look at Tae Jun. She walked up to her husband then...
Plakkkp..... A slap landed perfectly on Tae Jun cheek. "Basic fool. Why are you making our son hurt huh? do you think with your silence I'll just forgive you. Cihhh.. Don't expect Tae Jun." Jessica was about to throw back her slap on Tae Jun's cheek. But soon Tae Jun pulls Jessica's hand and hugs her. "I'm sorry, honey. I knew I was wrong, I was too careless to let Alex get hurt. I'm sorry," said Tae Jun. Jessica is in the arms of her husband. She was eager to beat up her husband right now. But he's too weak. Heart's hurt. He was also very afraid that Alex would leave him.
Angela who saw the chaos in the corridor of the hospital did not budge. She already knew everything because Tae Jun had already told her when he called Jessica an hour ago. He felt guilty, all this because of his mistake that was too selfish and did not want to listen to the words of his brother-in-law.
"Sister!" call Angela with a very slow sura. He was too embarrassed to call his sister-in-law at this moment. But when he saw Hera's miserable state, he felt he had to ask Hera for forgiveness.
Hera raised her head to look at Angela with a sad look. She smiled but her tears came back when she saw her sister-in-law's face.
