The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 217 - Injured!

The sight only brought restlessness to each one of them. At this moment Austin felt his soul almost lifting up from this world itself. "Jennifer.."

Muttering her name in between, what came in his view was something unexpected.

Jennifer was lying on the floor with her hand covered in blood. Her face was covered with the flap of her hair yet the mess that she created wasn't missed from their eyes.

At the same time, Hannah immediately stepped in, behind Austin and yelled Jennifer's name on the top of her lungs. "JEN!!"

Walking towards her through the pieces of the broken vase, she finally came to the lady and tried to shake Jennifer's face but to no avail did she wake. "Jennifer!! Open your eyes. Oh my Gosh.. Austin! There is a lot of blood on her hand."

"Umm? Ye..yeah!" He was pulled out of his daze when Hannah called his name.

Instead of straight, he walked to her side and said, "Let me carry her to the end first."

"Please.. be careful.." Austin lifted her heavy body from the ground itself and somehow made it when lay on the soft mattress.

Her dress was wrinkled and her shoulder was bleeding too.

Seeing all the cuts and wounds only made Hannah's heart squeeze, "Jenn.. please open your eyes. See, we are here. Jennifer!"

Sitting beside her, Hannah started rubbing her hands slowly to provide her some warmth. Jennifer's body was totally covered with a coldness which was something worrisome too.

Getting no response from her already made both of them panic. Turning her face, Hannah said to Austin, "Call The doctor immediately! Right now!"

"I will do that!" Just when he was ready to walk out of the room, he came in front of Charles who just stepped inside.

Charles's eyes were hollow yet no one can deny that he was under immense pressure.

Averting his eyes in Jennifer's side, did he came across the body who laid motionlessly, "What happened to her? And why are so many things broken?"

This question brought a scoff on Austin's face when he smiled sarcastically and replied back, "I guess you should ask the brother of yours, who was immersed in two-timing. Get side! I need to call a doctor."

"No need for you to do that. I will call my family doctor. He will arrive soon." Without further delay on this, Austin agreed.

Since he knew that this territory is of Johnson, they have more contacts as compared to him.

Charles walked out of the room and returned back within two minutes to give them a positive answer. "He will be here in the next five minutes. Need not to worry.."

"Not to worry? Mr. Johnson, she is lying like a dead body! You are telling us that there is nothing to worry about? Oh my, Austin! come here!"

Hannah's yelling didn't offend Charles but he kept mum.

On The other hand, Austin immediately by her side and did the same thing which Hannah is currently doing, rubbing Jennifer's legs and hands to give her some warmth.

Charles remained distant but he knew that blunder was already created.

A frown was curved on his forehead when he realized the entire situation was proceeding in the wrong direction now.

'Javier.. your decision will affect many lives…'

…..

As Charles had earlier made the call, the doctor arrived within the next five minutes.

He came really prepared with his bag and court. Measuring Jennifer's vital with carefulness, made Hannah bite her lower lip.

They all stood on one side and provided enough space for the doctor to do the measure checkup.

Since they arrived in the room, her eyes never tore from the hand of Jennifer which was covered with blood.

The amount of blood made it difficult for them to know whether there was any cut or.. some of the minor issues. "Austin, do you think that she has.. cut her wrist?"

The voice was low but enough to be heard by everyone present. Charles shifted his attention to Hannah's undoubted face while Austin answered with a shook.

"She is strong enough.. she won't go that way."

"When you get heartbreak, you never know what love makes you do. She was depressed." It was all true and Hannah was already feeling as if her heart was waiting for the Doctor to complete his checkup.

While she was deeply anxious and still somehow understanding the bit of the situation, Austin's rage was already high.

Austin stood in silence and didn't reply back immediately. Rather, he asked the doctor straightforwardly, "Doctor, is she fine!? Has.. she cut.. her wrist?"

"No, she didn't. Instead, she took a large broken piece of glass and held it too tightly. I don't know why she even held a glass broke piece which was supposed to only hurt.."

'Because she wasn't in the right state of mind..' Hannah replied but didn't want those words to slip from her mouth.

Wrapping her hands around her shoulders, she tried to warm herself a little bit but it was too hard when her gaze was almost gazing at Jennifer's pale face.

This time, Charles cleared his throat, to ask, "Will she be fine?"

"Yes, Mr. Johnson. Just let her take a rest. I have removed the glass piece now. It will hurt a bit in the starting so I'm prescribing some medicines. Please give them to her." The doctor was polite as he kept all his instruments back in his bag.

"Alright, as per your say." Charles didn't try to know more but it was evident that at one point, he was scared that something might have happened to her.

But his aloof attitude irked Austin a lot. He can't help but feel himself boiling indie when the rage reached his head.

The urge to say became high when he faced Charles with stubborn, "Obviously! How will you guys even care? Especially when the person behind the misery is no one else but your dear brother.."
