Ouch! My CEO Fiancé Fell For His Maid by Lisa Salman Chapter 135

15- Looking For Him (Book 2)

As soon as the car came to a halt, I jumped out without waiting for Justin or any of my friends.

“The club casualties…” I began to say, but the receptionist interrupted me, gesturing towards a counter on the right. “Ma’am, you can get all the information you need from there. The patients have been moved to that ward,” she said in a professional tone.

I made my way to the small waiting area of the hospital, where a young doctor was calling out injured people’s names along with the ward numbers while panicked people were gathering around him.

“Sir!” I tried to scream over the chaos, but my voice was drowned out. Unable to stand still, I rushed down the hallway to the said wards.

Adonis! Please don’t you dare die on me! Don’t you fu*cing die, Adonis. If you do, I’ll kill you myself! I swear I will kill you!

I sobbed without realizing it, tears streaming down my face.

I kept looking for him on every bed, in every ward but he was nowhere.

I wanted Justin to take me to the club, but no one was allowed to step foot within. twenty-five feet of the accident place. Even my salon was supposed to be closed for the next few days.

Looking around helplessly, I covered my mouth to stifle my sob and walked back to bump into someone.

“I am sorry,” I said carelessly only to find Justin standing behind me, “Justin?” I held his arms and looked into his eyes.

He shook his head at my silent question. He couldn’t find him either. Ashley and Aniya didn’t know how to console me.

“Mr. Justin Deluca?” A doctor who seemed to be of the same age as Justin, approached us, “Have you checked the wards? Did you go through the lists?”

“I just checked the wards,” I spoke, Couldn’t check the lists because it was too crowded.” He nodded at me and asked a genitor to bring us the lists.

“Here they are,” he handed the file to Justin. I, at once, grabbed it from him and started looking at the names.

The first few pages didn’t have his name.

However, my heart dropped into the pit of my stomach when on the next page there was clearly written heading, ‘Declared Dead!”

Handing over the file to Justin, I moved away holding my forehead. I wanted to puke.

“Eve!” Ashley came after me, “Are you feeling sick? Should I take you to the bathroom? Please don’t give up. We will find him.”
