Chapter 27 - 27

Augustus rushed back. He travelled half of his usual time.

His car left opened as he rushed towards his bedroom.

Hugo was outside.

"Where is she?" He frantically asked. Hugo stepped aside as his Master abruptly opened the door.

"Aunt..." His voice was trembling with agitation.

Lucia stood up and walked towards him.

"She's asleep. Maybe she will wake up tomorrow." Lucia said as she glanced at the sleeping woman on the bed.

"Did she really wake up?" Augustus couldn't help but ask.

"Yes. She even drank water. It's just that she fell asleep after drinking water." Lucia wryly smiled. It was worst that crying.

Noticing this, Augustus was taken aback.

"What is it Aunt Lucia?" He asked. There seems to be a problem.

"She... Didn't remember anything..." Lucia broke down.

Augustus was also shocked.

"Don't worry Aunt, I will take her to a private hospital. We will get her checked... Don't worry." Augustus said while also hypnotizing himself.

Everything will be alright. Yes. Nothing will go wrong.

Lucia kept crying. Her heart ached when Louise asked her who she was.

What pained her most when she asked about her father, Jonas. It was like a nightmare to her.

When she said her name, Louise Agatha Morgan, it was when she fainted.

"It's a good that she woke up after so many years. So we should be glad. The rest is not important. We have the time to explain things to her and make her understand." Augustus patted Lucia's back as he tried to comfort her.

He was also not that calm. His heart still beating fast. His agitation reflected on his trembling hands.

Hugo stood aside silently as he contained the shock in him when he saw how patient he was with Lucia.

What shocked him the most was that he voluntarily hugged her as he knew that he was not good with physical touch.

"Hugo, get Aunt to the bed and let her rest. I will guard Louise tonight." Augustus glanced at the stunned butler.

"Yes Master." Hugo walked towards Lucia and helped her up.

"Take a rest Ms. Mu." Hugo lead her to the side room. Lucia nodded and walked with the help of Hugo.

Augustus slowly walked towards the bed. When he saw that there were tears on her eyes, his heart ache so much.

The woman he fancied suffered so much and he couldn't do anything for her.

He gently wiped her tears with his own hands. He noticed that as he wiped her tears away, she whimpered.

That broke his heart.

"Shhh... I'm here don't cry." He said softly. He gathered her hands and kissed her fingers.

He inserted the bloodstone ring on her middle finger.

After, he inserted an onyx black ring on his thumb.

"Welcome home my heiress." Augustus uttered.
