    While Beatrice came home earlier that day than usual, she was not feeling well because the work in the shop was so much. Their number of visitors increased quite drastically after Kendrick brought it to the public.

    As usual he took the city bus from his coffee shop to the house, at eight to thirty minutes he arrived at the bus stop not far from where he lived. Arriving – arrived several girls in uniform followed Beatrice shortly after walking away from the bus stop and passing through the quiet streets, the woman quickened her pace.

    “ Stop! “ A female voice is heard while reaching for Beatrice's hand and forcing the woman to stop her steps.

    “ Sorry if I can help you? “ Beatrice's voice sounded slightly vibrating.

    “ Who do you think you are? Can I marry a – boy as good as Kendrick Leandro? You tease her? “ Saying women in uniform with the body of the bongsor that had grabbed Beatrice's hand.

    “ Who are you? “ Beatrice becomes even more frightened.

    Arrived – arrived some people pelted Beatrice's face with chicken eggs, making the beautiful woman turn around and run. But unfortunately, the woman grabbed Beatrice's hair and grabbed it pretty tight making Beatrice grimace in pain.

    “ Us? The one you hurt! “ Jerk that woman.

    “ Ah, ah sick. Can we talk good – well? “ Beatrice sounds begging.

    “ Good – well you said? “ The woman let go of her hands into Beatrice's hair and pushed hard Beatrice's body until she fell into the street.

    Hardly someone hit Beatrice's back with a block of wood, making her more and more slumped kiss the asphalt. The women kicked Beatrice's back and legs so brutally in turn, that they even punched her pretty face hard enough that the tip of Kendrick's lip looked bloody.

    Beatrice did not have the strength to fight the horde of people who were surrounding her. The beautiful woman could only cry withstanding her pain, she only cried out very weakly hoping that someone would save her. Until the woman fell unconscious, the women who were beating Beatrice did not stop attacking the woman who was dying in front of them.

    “ Woy! What the hell is that? “ Shouts of a Man loudly startled the gang of anarchist women, and made them run around afraid of being caught red-handed.

    The man immediately approached Beatrice's body that had been rolled helplessly on the side of the road with a battered face because of the actions of the horde of people he did not know. Beatrice's pretty face was visibly wet with blood mixed with her tears.

    “ Beatrice! “ Shouted The man who had just come that when he saw the fainted woman was a person he knew.

    Soon the man called the ambulance and the police tried to make Beatrice aware, but the woman did not open her eyes. It was not until fifteen minutes that the police and ambulance arrived that he immediately helped the nurse lift Beatrice's tiny body onto the push-bed. The man was also seen giving information to police who came to inspect the scene. After completing some questions – men asked for time to accompany Beatrice to the hospital.

    Upon his arrival at Beatrice's hospital to get treatment at the IGD, the man accompanied Beatrice who was still unconscious. After the examination, the man helped administer Beatrice's transfer to the treatment room. After entering the treatment room, he sat beside the bed Beatrice laid, the man gently touching Beatrice's messy hair.

Cring.. Cring.. Cring..

    “ Honey, sorry I just got to tell you. My agenda today is finished, have you gone home?  “ heard Kendrick's voice from across very cheerful.

    “ Are you Beatrice's stupid husband? How can you let her get beat up – by a bunch of crazy women? “ The voice of the man who helped Beatrice sounded very angry.

    “ This who? Why is Beatrice's HP on you? Where's my wife? “ Kendrick's voice sounded panicked as well.

    “ Beatrice is still unconscious, she is at Joy Hope Hospital. I'm Rigel, his friend. “ Reply the man who turned out to be Rigel in an annoyed tone.

    “ What? How's story? “ Kendrick became panicked when he heard his wife was unconscious.

    “ Just ask Beatrice when she's awake. “ Rigel instantly turned off his phone connection and put Beatrice's HP back in his bag violently.

    “ Beatrice, wake up. “ Anxiously Rigel gently swiped Beatrice's hand.

    “ Gel? Is that really you? “ Beatrice's voice rattled as she opened her eyes slowly.

    “ Be! It's me, what do you feel? What hurts Be? “ asked Rigel with great anxiety. But the woman just shook her head weakly.

    “ I'll call the nurse first Be. “ Rigel immediately rushed out of Beatrice's room and called the nurse at her guard table. He told the nurse that Beatrice was awake.

    The nurse again examined Beatrice's body and took her to the CT Scan room, where Rigel faithfully accompanied Beatrice on the examination. After Rigel again helped push Beatrice's bed into the room, the nurse gave several injections of drugs through the infusion and soon Beatrice fell asleep.

    Tok..

    Almost eleven o'clock in the evening there was a knock from the door of Beatrice's nursery. Rigel immediately got up from his seat, he grabbed the door handle and opened it. He found a man and a woman standing there, they only wore a nightgown suit and gripped HP and a black wallet in the woman's hand. It is clear that they are in a hurry – to go to the hospital.

    “ Sorry, is Beatrice Leandro's room right? “ asked the woman in panic.

    “ Right, are you his relatives? “ Telisik Rigel's.

    “ Yes, I'm His sister-in-law. “ Connect Hera firmly.

    “ Please come in, Beatrice is asleep. Just now the nurse gave me the medicine. “ Rigel gives way for the two men to enter the treatment room.

    Hera immediately examined the weak-looking Beatrice lying on the bed. The look on Hera's face momentarily turned to be very worried, seeing the condition of Beatrice's bruised face.

    “ Since you guys are already here, I say goodbye. If you have anything to ask please contact me. I have also reported this to the police, it looks like this is a gangster. “ Rigel holds out the business card he took out of his wallet.

    “ Sorry Sir, for administrative costs is using money from Mister? Please give us a payment receipt so we can replace it. “ Said Travis after receiving a business card from Rigel.

    “ It's okay – what Master, I'll finish it myself with Beatrice. It just so happens that we are old friends and know each other well, I'm sorry. “ Rigel rejects Travis' offer and then disappears behind the door without hearing any answer either from Travis or from Hera.
