Tales Of Love

Chapter 127



As the trigger went off, their parents arrived. The noise of the trigger was too Sudden, it was unexpected, it was deafening.

Lisa covered her ears, Mia placed her hand on her pounding chest and Aurora opened her mouth agape.

Santiago felt two bullets pierced through his chest and he held his chest, painfully. Eli was going to shoot Aurora? Before him? He would rather die than see Aurora being shot.

Suddenly recovering her wits, Aurora saw Santiago blocking her and slightly bent, obviously holding his right side.

“Santiago!!”

“Santiago!!!”

Aurora screamed and held him,

“No!!, No!!”

Santiago was bleeding and seemingly took heavy steps towards the car.

“Santiago” Mia blurted out in shock. Eli had shot her son-in-law? He had wanted to shoot Aurora but Santiago intercepted, and got the bullets instead.

Mia rushed after Santiago and Aurora. Santiago couldn’t take another step. He closed his eyes and took the final step, resting against the car’s trunk.

His hand, completely stained with blood and his Suit was soaked. He was losing too much blood.

Lisa was in a daze, too confused to think of what to do. Santiago was bleeding and her husband was the one who shot him!.

“Someone get an ambulance!!” Aurora yelled. She took another quick decision and dashed her hand into Santiago’s Suit, bringing out the car key. As she brought out her hand, her palm was covered in blood, Santiago’s blood.

“Santiago please hold on, please, please don’t leave me” Aurora was panicking. Her mother took the car key from Aurora and opened the door. With the help of Luke, Santiago got into the car and Aurora took his hand sitting beside him.

Santiago was starting to feel dizzy. He was seeing things in double and felt an inner weakness enveloping him. Aurora was on his side and Mia on the other.

With the last bit of strength in him he held Aurora’s hand tightly and said, “Whatever happens, just know that I love you Aurora, I really do and.. our.. kids,…” he couldn’t complete what he was saying before slipping into darkness.

“Santiago!!, Santiago please” Aurora placed her hand on his chin and sobbed. “Drive faster!” Mia instructed. She looked at the unconscious Santiago and felt sorry. The bullet that had made him become like this was actually aimed at her daughter Aurora.

When they arrived at the hospital, the doctors and nurses were already waiting. They’ve been called ahead of their arrival by Luke, they were already on a standby to take actions. Soon Santiago was wheeled into the operating theater and the red light blinked.

Mia held the fidgeting Aurora. Her grandparents walked in and helped in pacifying Aurora. She was told to calm down that Santiago would be fine.

Nancy and Lisa rushed in as well, all trying their best to console Aurora telling her that her best wishes were all that Santiago needed right now.

Eli ‘s anger had now pacified. He became cool headed, when he saw Santiago’s bleeding and how he stared at him, his sister and Aurora’s panic.

He blamed himself now, he only brought his gun out to frighten Aurora but mistakenly his finger pressed on the trigger in his fist of anger.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

The result of his act had sent his niece’s husband to the hospital, if not to his death. It was better not to try and explain anything, no one is going to believe him if he says it wasn’t an intentional act.

The whole mansion was empty except for the servants and a few bodyguards. He sank into the sofa, disappointed at his own act.

He just got reconciled with his sister not quite long but now, it seemed as if the entire family would be against him.

How would Lisa feel? She almost left him the other time simply because he was loose with his tongue, but this time, he had even shot at someone, not just anyone, Aurora’s husband.

Aurora kept crying non-stop. How will she survive without Santiago? She lost her great grandfather recently and she was still recovering.

Sob! Sob!! Santiago is her life, her everything and if Santiago dies or something bad happens to him, she’ll never be able to live without him.

When will there be an end to her misery in this life? At the time when it appears things are getting more interesting, a disaster will erupt.

Her life had finally taken shape and now, she would lose the one who she loved more than life itself. Why does she have to experience such ugly side of life too often?

They waited for hours, but the doctors were not out. Everyone was quiet except the sobbing Aurora that refused to be consoled.

Eli waited but no one returned from the hospital. He became worried. He couldn’t bring himself to call any of them.

Aurora’s kids came to meet him and demanded they want to see their daddy and ask their uncle to take them to him.

Eli told them that their daddy was going to come for them, they should have their dinner and go to bed. Eli watched as the Kids obediently nodded their heads and went back to their nanny.

Unable to sit still, Eli stood up to go to the hospital.
