Chapter 42 — Nothing’s Good

Alex POV:

I knew Hailey was in trouble, so I used my Mafia connections to find out where John resided. I thought I would never use the Mafia or its connections again, but it looks like it takes a bitch to know a bitch.

I was sure that if she was in trouble, only John could be the reason. 

I found out about his headquarters and blew them up. They were in the deep forests of Africa, so no one cared. The place where he lived was completely isolated and I had no idea why he would stay so far away. I mean, I know that he needs to hide but it doesn’t have to be so far.

Anyways, I didn’t care but blew it up. Then I got Hailey’s location by her phone on my monitor and took my car and drove to her. She was kinda far away from the city. I just hope I saved her in time.

I reached the place and got out of my car. It was a forest, and my device wasn’t so good to find her exact location. I just called her again and again, but she didn’t respond.

I was worried again but kept yelling her name.

Finally, she responded back, and my heart heaved a sigh of relief when I got to her.

I hugged her immediately. She was crying badly and looked completely scared. I just kept her in my arms for a long time, until she stopped crying.

Then I pulled away and looked at her.

“Are you okay?” I asked her and she sobbed.

“Y-yeah…it…” she wanted to speak, but it looked as if she was in a trauma. She started again. “It…he…” But she couldn’t say anything more and just cried.

I hugged her again. “It is gonna be okay. Where’s your phone?”

“Uh…it…I…”

What happened to her?

I looked at her once again and then sighed. Of course, she must be traumatized. 

“Let’s get you to the hospital,” I whispered to her and took her hand.

I was glad that she didn’t want to push me away. You know, most people tend to push people away after having such an incident. It is like PTSD. But maybe she isn’t going through that…

I didn’t waste time. After getting her in my car, I drove back to the city as fast as possible. I wanted to talk to Hailey about that wicked woman, but I can’t.

I reached a hospital. I will inform anyone else later, she should visit the hospital and I also wanna make sure that nothing happened to her.

I went inside with her, and the receptionist recognized her and let her in immediately. It was at least a perk of being the CEO.

I sat out as the female doctor checked her body and made sure everything was fine. Also, they ran a few neurological tests. As I waited, I received a call from Max.

“Hey!” I replied and walked out of the hospital.

“Hey man. Is she okay?”

“Still running the tests. How is Summer?”

“Well…”

“I know I should be angry and trust me, I am and not to tell you, completely hurt but I guess you can just tell me how she is?” I asked him.

he sighed. “She is okay. She just…she wants to do a test to figure out who the dad is…and…that could be done after 10 weeks of pregnancy so…”

“I would have to wait for 9 weeks to figure out if she cheated?” I laughed ironically. “feels good”

“Alex…don’t think like that…” he sighed.

“It is okay”

I ended the call and went inside. Maybe I should just pay attention to my sister for now rather than a wife who potentially cheated on me.

After one hour, a nurse walked to me and told me the results were out. As I held the papers in my hand, I was really shocked to see the results.

“How long will it take?” I asked the nurse.

“based on what I have perceived, 7 to 12 months, and according to the result, we don’t know”

“Oh. Okay.” 

She nodded and left. Hailey has been diagnosed with trauma and she needs the help of a psychiatrist. I feel so bad for her…

I sighed. Well, nothing is good for now. 

Robert is in the hands of that wicked woman, Summer…well, and Hailey is not gonna be well soon, Max is in hiding and I haven’t heard from Cassie since a long time since she went to study in Russia.
