My Ruthless Innocent Billionaire

REVIVING THE OLD RELATIONS

Austin’s P.O.V.

I and Antonio were best friends. We were like brothers.  We were so happy when Anaira came into our lives. I was his God Father and me proud to be. Everything went well until that accident. I and Antonio were coming back from the hospital. I had a late shift that day and I was so exhausted to drive home so I called Antonio. Being and good friend, he came to pick me from the hospital.

We were arguing about something for Anaira’s  1st birthday when suddenly a heavy vehicle came from the wrong side and collided with us. It was a huge impact. Our car flipped on the road 3-4 times. I somehow managed to get out of the car and before I could rescue him, the car engulfed in fire completely started from the engine. I was badly injured, still, I tried to reach him and with so many efforts, I somehow managed to drag him out of the burning car. But he was dead. His head was smashed in the steering wheel causing excessive bleed that tends to his death. His whole face was covered with his blood.

Cynthia blamed me for his death and cut all ties with me. She even refused to let me meet with Anaira. When I received her call today, I just arrived from the hospital. I had no idea what was going in their lives. I immediately answered the call.

“Halo… Cynthia???? Is that you?”, I asked in surprise. But then, I heard her crying. My heart stopped beating for some seconds. My body trembled in fear. There was surely something wrong.

“Austin… I… I need help… please… please… help … me”, she said in between her sobs. I really wanted to fly to her. She was crying bitterly.

“Cynthia…. What happened… tell me… where are you… I am coming over there…”, I said in a panic voice. They were still my family. I couldn’t abandon them. Though she was angry with me, I didn’t blame her for what happened years ago.

“Anaira…. She… she… needs … immediate ICU hospitalization… but someone is trying to kill her… so..”, she choked in between the sentence and my heart skipped a beat in fear. She was my angel and someone tried to kill her?????

“What????????”, I yelled in shock.

“Yeah… Austin… her condition is not stable… i… i… we need to hide her hospitalization.. please … please … help me”, she pleaded and I immediately replied to her. There was no way that I would leave Anaira at any cost. She was my God-Daughter, above all, she was Antonio’s daughter.

“Text me address, I am coming over there with ambulance”, I hung and immediately called to the hospital emergency doctor on duty.

“Arrange a fully equipped ambulance and sent it with a doctor whoever is on duty with a nurse. I am texting the address to you. I am reaching there and hung up the phone.

I received the text containing the address from Cynthia and immediately forwarded it to the person I talked to in the hospital. Meanwhile, I put on my warm clothes again and took my medical box in case if I needed something.

I almost ran towards my car in the garage and again called him.

“Did you get the address?”, I asked him while opening my car on the driver’s side.

“Ok, send the ambulance immediately and ask the driver to talk with me”, I instructed him and cut the call.

I sat the address in the GPS and then drove the car in that direction.

Cynthia’s P.O.V.

I hurriedly opened the door and Austin was there. I was panicked and fear was written all over his face.

“Where is she”, he asked me immediately while entering through the door.

“She…. She is … come with me”, I was not able to speak properly. I signaled him to follow me.

As soon as he saw her, he gasped and trembled. His eyes widened due to horror. I knew what he was feeling right now. She was like a live skeleton which somehow managed to breathe.

“What the hell is this Cynth???”, he yelled in horror while heading towards her. He immediately checked her pulse and then he checked her eyes.

“It’s a long story Austin, will tell you later. In a brief, we found her today like this after 6 years. Someone… someone.. kidnapped her 6 years ago and ….”, I choked again and he looked at me with a disappointing and sad look.

He was a cardiovascular surgeon. He checked her chest, her spine, under her neck for any kind of injury, or any symptoms of any disease. Then we heard the siren of an ambulance outside the house.

“Derek, please bring the paramedics here”, I requested Derek and he immediately went outside.

“Nancy, I can’t go with her. He is Austin and Austin he is Nancy. She is a nurse by profession and is helping me. I can’t go with you because it may be possible that the kidnapper is someone known to us. I know she is safe with you. So just take care of her for me and…. For Antonio”, I almost whispered the last past while lowering my gaze.

Austin came towards me and hugged me and I immediately engulfed him in my embrace. I started sobbing again. He patted my head and said, “don’t worry Cynth. She is my daughter. I love her more than my life. I will intimate you as soon as we reach the hospital”.

We broke our hug as the team came inside and we immediately started wrapping her and Austin started connected her with all the necessary equipment. Then they lifted the trolley and headed towards the ambulance outside. At the gate of the ambulance and looked at my baby like there was no other day.

“Please take care of her. I owe you from my life”, I said to Nancy with tears in my eyes and she squeezed my hand in the assurance that she would be there for her.

After settling Anaira in the ambulance, Austin came towards me and said, “We are heading towards the hospital now. I will inform you whatever her condition will be”.

I once again thanked him and then he almost ran towards his car and left with the ambulance.

I was standing alone there on the road while looking towards the retreating vehicle. My heart went numb. My mind was not thinking anything. I never thought that I would see her like this. Suddenly my phone rang and I came out of my trance.

It was from Alex. I immediately answered the call.

“Halo”, I said and Alex replied, “did you transfer her to the hospital?”,

“Yeah Alex… they just took her in the ambulance. I am heading towards home now”, I told him and he sighed.

“Mom…. Princess is also out of danger now… though she is very weak, but the doctor said that she will survive”, he paused and I thanked God for her wellness.

“That’s the first good news in 2 days. Please send me her photo. I really want to see her… please send”, I pleaded to him and he said, “I already sent to you Mom… but first you should reach home. It’s almost dawn. I am also coming to the home in an hr. We have to keep our emotions in check and behave like before”.

“Yeah… you are right. See you at home son”, We bid our farewell and then we hung up.

I again looked towards the road where the ambulance took my baby to the hospital. Then I went towards the road from where I could get the taxi.
