Sean closed his eyes as Arthur made small deep cuts on each of Archie's wrists. Archie didn't make a sound as Arthur cut his wrists trying to hide his pain.
"Archie you do know that I have made a lot of people disappear but still move around willingly. So if I get rid of you I don't think even your parents would find out "
"If Rose finds out that you're a merciless person who has killed a lot of people to get where you are, do you think she would still love you?"
Arthur shouted back at Archie "Don't you dare talk about her or I will cut out your tongue "
Archie laughed as he saw Arthur act up to his words. He continued to say, "I really loved how her smooth hips felt against my hands when she screamed for your...."
Before he could finish his sentence Arthur stabbed him right below his heart.
He grabbed his head and whispered into Archie's ear, "I told you not to talk about her "
Arthur twisted the dagger and then pulled it out, Victoria who had just woke up landed her eyes on the scene and lost consciousness again.
"Arthur I think that's enough for now " Sean pulled Arthur from the bloody scene with his hand still holding the dagger.
Sean got it from his hands and placed it back in the table, he called his men who took the bleeding Archie away from the room.
Arthur collapsed to the floor as tears flowed he started at his bloody hands.
"Arthur stop crying like your son and get up, as you had your chat with Archie, one of our men told me that a car had picked up a young woman who had collapsed on the road and it was a few meters from the old house "
Arthur immediately looked up at Sean and asked where exactly she was taken. He got up, washed his hands, and asked for a car to head to the hospital where the claimed woman was.
"Arthur slow down or we might also end up in the hospital " Sean yelled at Arthur who ignored his advice and increased the speed even more.
They arrived at the hospital and asked if a woman had been admitted by a stranger.
One of the nurses led them to the room where she had been put.
"The one who admitted her was a young man, she was in a bad condition when she arrived with bruises under her feet, a swollen neck that showed she had been strangled by someone while they tried to rape her " the nurse informed them as they walked to the room.
Arthur clenched his teeth and fists out of anger after he heard what the nurse said.
"This is the room, you can check and see if she's the one you looking for " She opened the door for them.
Arthur who had grown impatient instantly entered the room and his eyes landed on a pale weak figure on the hospital bed. She had lost weight in the two days she had disappeared.
He moved closed and picked up her cold hand, her neck, and feet where bandaged while her arms had bruises.
This wasn't the beautiful Rose he knew, tears formed in his eyes as he kissed her hand.
Her face was motionless and pale that it scared him.
Sean moved out of the room with the nurse leaving Arthur and Rose alone.
He called Alex and the rest and told them they had found Rose at the hospital. He told them its location.
Arthur came out if the room and asked the nurse to transfer Rose to a VIP room. Rose was soon placed in a more comfortable bed with everything provided.
Sean left to buy something to eat while Arthur talked with the doctor.
"She must have been terrified by something to put her in such a condition or remembered a certain painful event. Her brain feeling exhausted decided to shut down putting her in a deep sleep. Her body will heal but her mental health is still fragile " the doctor told Arthur.
As soon as the doctor left, Arthur lifted Rose's upper body and slid under the covers. He placed her in his embrace and covered them both.
Rose's body that had failed to warm up soon gained enough body temperature.
Rose let out a peaceful sigh as she drifted into a cozy dream. Arthur hugged her even closer as his lack of sleep finally took over.
Sean and the rest who had just arrived entered to find Rose in Arthur's arms both sound asleep.
They left and closed the door behind them.
"Let's go somewhere else and wait for them to wake up," Sean said as he led the other away.
They sat in the hospital cafeteria and order something to eat.
"Did you find who was really behind this?" Ralph asked.
"Yeah we did, Archie and Victoria, " Sean said.
"What's wrong with that guy and my sister. His always harassing her?" Ralph let out.
"He won't hurt her again, Arthur made sure of that " Sean answered.
"Was she badly hurt when they rescued her?" Irene asked.
"Those two monsters tortured her, but she was strong enough to fight her way out and escape from them " said Sean.
"They need to pay ten folds of what they did " Alex angrily said.
Sean laughed as he recalled what Arthur had done to Victoria and Archie.
"As I said don't worry, Arthur took care of it," he said.
After two hours Arthur called Sean asking him to come back to the room. Sean came with the rest.
Rose was still unconscious but it didn't stop Irene and Alex to hug and kiss her forehead.
Irene cried when she saw the bruises on her friend's body.
"When will she wake up?" she asked.
"We don't know the doctor said it's up to her. It seemed she doesn't want to wake up since she believes they will hurt her again " Arthur said.
After seeing her they all decided to leave her to rest and in Arthur's care.
"Tell Dorothy to bring the baby here, he needs his mother too," Arthur told Sean.
