Three of them quickly made their way toward the stage. The moment they were about to make their move, however, they saw Maya and Nina running into the hall.
“Mommy, help!”
“We’re going to die, Mommy! Help us!”
The kids were smart. After they successfully made their way into the wedding venue, they took off their jackets and masks and started to shout and wail.
Maya’s loud wails caught the attention of the guests.
“What’s happening?”
“I don’t know. Whose children are they?”
“They went up to the stage. Could they be the bride’s children?”
“……”
While the guests were busy murmuring amongst themselves, Nicole ran towards them. She was dumbfounded once she had taken a good look at her daughters.
“Nina, Maya! What on earth happened to you two?”
Maya’s face was bruised and there were bloody wounds on her arms.
Nina was pale and she looked like she had been choked, judging by the marks on her neck. Like Maya, Nina also had wounds on her arms.
Both of them looked at Nicole pitifully and said, “Mommy, it hurts. Please save us!”
“Don’t cry, Maya. Tell Mommy what happened.”
The little girl burst into tears but said nothing.
“Tell me, Nina. What happened? Who hit you?”
“The bad woman hit us, Mommy. Please save us. We’re going to be beaten to death by her.”
Nicole frowned. Who is this bad woman Nina is talking about?
Levant went to them and glanced at the time. “Nicole, I’ll have someone send them to the hospital. Once the wedding ceremony is over, we’ll go and visit them.”
Before she could say anything, she saw Kyle and Juan running towards her.
Kyle had a cold expression on his face and was embarrassed to shout in front of the guests.
But Juan didn’t care at all. He shrieked, “Mommy, save me! I’m dying.” The little boy instantly fainted once he had delivered his sentence.
At the sight of that, Nicole sprinted towards him and took him in her arms. She then shouted anxiously, “Hurry, Levant! Send Juan to the hospital now!”
Levant was stunned for a moment. He knew that if he still insisted on continuing with the ceremony, Nicole would blame him should anything happen to her children. He didn’t want to get into an argument with her because of the kids, as it might make her rethink her decision to marry him.
So he nodded and said, “Alright. I’ll send all of you over.”
It doesn’t matter if the wedding can’t go on today. I have all the time in the world. As long as Nicole is willing, we can get married any day.
John heaved a sigh of relief. The wedding was canceled and the kids were rushed to the hospital.
But what’s with their injuries?
This is their plan to stop the wedding? Did they actually get injured for this?
I have to check on them immediately.
At the hospital, Nicole waited outside the consultation room, eager to find out about her children’s conditions.
I wonder how Juan is doing now. Are Maya and Nina’s injuries serious?
When Levant saw how worried and anxious she was, he consoled her, “Don’t worry, Nicole. They will be fine.”
The door to the consultation room opened the moment Levant finished speaking, and a doctor walked out with the children’s documents in hand. Nicole quickly went to the doctor and asked, “Doctor, how are my children? Are their injuries serious?”
The doctor sighed as he looked at her. “Your children are too mischievous!”
She didn’t understand why the doctor would say that. “What do you mean? Were they not cooperative in the checkups? Did they destroy something?”
“If you don’t understand this, then get a basin of water and clean their wounds. You’ll understand then!” the doctor said while handing her the reports.
A basin of water? Clean the wounds?
Nicole followed the doctor’s orders and did as told. When Maya saw her mother bringing a basin of water into the room, she froze for a second and whispered to Nina, “Why did Mommy bring in the basin? Do you think she noticed something wrong with our injuries?”
