A few minutes before,
When he was crushing Winston below his feet he felt an intense gaze darting towards him, even without looking he could who was he. Lucas continue to avoid but after feeling it for a few more minutes he glare at Adrian hoping to show just how irritated he was but instead that shameless person only flashes him a doting and indulging smile making him red from embarrassment.
Lucas placed his hand over his heart which seems to beat quickly whenever he was being looked at by that shameless person, he didn't know what this feeling was that was budding deep inside him but he liked this feeling.
No matter how he like to show he didn't understand those doting and indulging gazes he had a hunch about what it was but for now he didn't want to acknowledge it. He wants to explore it slowly with that person who has always occupied his thoughts since their childhood only then he would be ready to be preyed on by that beast whose eyes couldn't help but follow him.
'Ah! this man can't he not be this obvious,' in his frustration, the one who suffered was Winston as the more embarrassed Lucas was the more force he would use to crush Winston's little brother. Winston fainted as he couldn't withstand the pain.
Adrian chuckled looking at these beloved antics, "Ah! my baby, he is too cute."
Hayden who was listening and seeing all the things happening in the store through the screen couldn't help but gag and roll his eyes, ' how is he cute.....sigh, so it's true love does make people blind, hmm... and I don't want to be blind...'
Where Hayden was sighing at Adrian's words, Luna was fuming.
" Baby...Baby! Who the hell does he think, see Amelia he dare to call my beloved brother baby, is he nuts!" Amelia looked pitifully at her bestie who couldn't or should she say she wouldn't see how brother Lucas looked at brother Adrian, she shook her head in disappointment.
After this, she would have to take Luna shopping to distract her otherwise her friend would end up being the third wheel of her RIAS ship!
'One is a beast trap by the love for his beloved fearing it would hurt his beloved whereas the other is your typical tsundere who likes to tease his loved one ah!' just thinking about it give her satisfaction. Amelia couldn't help but squeal inside.
Just when she was fangirling something major happen inside the store which leave them stunned in horror.
Inside Adrian was enjoying his beloved embarrassed look noticed something has gone wary when he saw Lucas's expression change. Lucas tried to remain calm and not show much in his face but how could Adrian who is obsessed with each and everything of Lucas not notice the sudden change in his beloved.
Lucas himself was shocked by this sudden change of event. According to his usual sickness routine, it wasn't the time yet! So why did his condition suddenly get worse! Did this Winston do something to him he looked at long fainted Winston with a gloomy gaze then shake his head, he hadn't eaten or taken anything ever since he enter the store so how could this man even get a chance to do something?
Lucas couldn't understand what was happening, he felt suffocated, he couldn't breathe properly. Without knowing he began to feel anxious, he began to panic. He clutched his heart to alleviate the pain but he simply couldn't.
He was scared and the only thought in his mind was how panicked everyone would be especially his parents, sister and Adrian.
' He would surely cause a scene,' thinking this Lucas looked at Adrian who was running towards him in panic and desperation.
Adrain saw the helpless look of his beloved person. He was furious and frightened seeing Lucas like that,' If something happened to him then I won't let anyone escape....'
Lucas saw something wrong with Adrian, he knew if he didn't calm down Adrian then Adrian might lose his mind, he wanted to tell him to calm down but he felt all the energy seeping out of his body, he couldn't stand properly and slowly he began to lose his consciousness resulting him falling.
Before he could fall, a strong pair of arms caught him. Adrian caught pale-looking Lucas in his arms, " You are fine just now, baby, Lucas wake up, plz....look your younger brother Adrian is calling for you, Lucas baby, open your eyes and look at me. I even promise I wouldn't tease you so LOOK AT ME!... IF YOU DARE TO LEAVE THEN DON'T BLAME ME FOR WHAT I MIGHT DO!"
Adrian hysterically called him.
Lucas could hear Adrian calling his name even his threatening words which were laced with deep worry and despair. Seeing, his Adrian who likes to tease and shamelessly act like a boyfriend like this he felt his heartache, he wanted to tell him he was okay and reassure him but unfortunately, he couldn't even open his eyes at this moment not to mention his mouth. He felt his body become heavy as if he was being crushed under a mountain.
And after a few seconds Lucas completely fainted.
At this time Alina who was angrily reprimanding her friends saw Lucas resulting in her crying his name alarmingly.
Olivia and Eugene who heard her couldn't help looking at their son, what they saw made all the colour of their drained.
Olivia rushed at her son, she wanted to look at her son. When she tries to touch Lucas,
" Don't you dare touch him, My baby is sleeping....You would disturb him, go away!"
But Adrian wouldn't let her. He glared at everyone who tries to get around them and kept tightly hugging Lucas not letting anyone near him like a wolf guarding his mate.
" Adrian, this is your aunt Olivia, Lucas's mother won't you let me look at him," Olivia knew Adrian was shocked, he is in a panic state resulting in him treating everyone as a threat so she tried to gently coax him.
" WUwuwuwu, Aunt look what happen to my brother Lucas, he fainted, do something....Mom... mom, Dad..... do something and make my brother Lucas look at me, dad call the doctor.....yes, doctor... I have to call him.... best doctor....to treat my best Lucas.....baby you have to get up ok....." Adrian burst into tears looking at Olivia. He urge her to do something and when he saw Alex and Hawk he couldn't help but beg them but when he saw them looking at him with sadness, he began to look at the contact list in his terminal himself for his beloved Lucas.
He suddenly lifts Lucas and runs.
" Where are you taking Lucas?" Alex alarmingly asked her son who seems to lose his mind.
Adrian abruptly stopped and glared at his mother as if she was dumb, being looked at like that Alex was helpless and angry but the situation wasn't right for her to scold him.
" Hospital!" answering his mother's stupid question he continues walking.
He can't let anything happen to his beloved, even if he had to fight against *Yama he would!
*Yama- king of death
Unexpectedly Adrian heard someone mumbling close to him, at first he didn't give much thought to it though when he heard it again his eyes lit up with expectation, yet when looked at Lucas he find his eyes closed he was a disappointment.
Then he saw Lucas's lips close then parted as if he was saying something. He placed his ear near Lucas's mouth and surely Lucas was saying something.
" Grandma, grandma.......in..d..ang.er....."
" Grandma in danger?" Adrian repeats Lucas's words causing Olivia to look at them with wide eyes. Only Olivia understood what was happening.
Adrian coax Lucas saying grandma is fine and rushed to the car, Eugene, Olivia and Luna followed him and sat in the car. Since they brought automatic car they didn't need any driver.
Hawk and hunter remain in the shopping mall to handle the aftermath there while sending their children and wives to the hospital.
Olivia was in a daze when she remember Lucas's words she suddenly had a bad premonition. Her own heart becomes uneasy. She knew something big will be happening today and she guessed it right.
Today many things would change which would change many lives.
