Eric's POV:

I felt my life was shattered, the words that came out of his mouth were simply disgusting and I cannot think of Eliza's life being taken away from me. 

I regretted every minute of me accusing her and feeling like killing myself, my heart was in extreme pain. I froze at his words, I am a strong man but those words stuck me to the place I was standing and I can faintly hear Mr. Lincoln asking me if I was alright, I wasn't though. 

I nod my head and walked out of the hospital trying to catch my breath, I was struggling to breathe. This has never happened to me, I feel so weak and very regretful of my actions, I cannot think of my life without Eliza in it. I was very angry when I heard the accusations, I reacted in anger and I was fuming. My eyes are moist now but I don't let my tears fall.

"Sir we have an issue, someone is kidnapping Miss Eliza and making an exit" one of my guys is coming running towards me said those words and my mood instantly shoots up to kill every motherfucker who laid hands on Eliza. I run for my life, "Sir this way Mr. Lincoln is ready to chase them, you can join the car" he says. "I will ride my own SUV," that's all I say and get inside my car. I call Mr. Lincoln immediately as I start the engine. "Who are they?" I ask as the call gets connected. "We are trying to locate their identities" he says "Send me the tracker of their cars, you guys are too slow for this shit" I scowl in anger. A ping appears on my phone, I try to open it with my left hand and my right hand effortlessly making turns. I call Mr. Lincoln back - "Stay on line and stay connected" I say "Yes surely" he says and I drive crazy and try to chase them, they are no where to be appeared. "Is the tracker even working" I ask. "It must be because I threw it in the car when I couldn't get hold of them" he says. The tracker now changes its interface from red to green signalling that we are close to those bastards, I cannot wait to feast on them. It seems to be a hell of a night for everyone involved I think to myself and accelerate the car. 

After 12 minutes into the drive after the green signal, I can now see a few black cars and a white van. "I can see them now, which vehicle is Eliza in?" I ask impatiently. "Sir, it should be the white van" he says. I speed up even more and I can get a clear view of them, I open one of the compartments and get hold of one of the suppressor guns and roll down my window, my right hand makes it way and starts shooting at them, the first shot was successful I get to kill one of them but it also alerted them, they look back and immediately they rain a series of bullets towards my car. I slow down a bit as they have accelerated, I stay low and maintain my composure. 

After a few seconds of the situation getting better I accelerate in full speed, I now am very close to them, I aim again but this time I aim to hit three to four of them in a row, I started shooting and was successful in killing three of them, I accelerate even further as it is waste of time to wait when I don't even know where they are headed towards. I am next to their cars and they shoot a tons of bullets towards me, thankfully I have made a quite a good money to get myself a bulletproof car. "Can you guys make an entry anytime soon?" I ask in tension and anger. "Sir we are right back of you" he says, I look at  the mirror and I can view them, I smirk and ask them to start loading the bullets and hit the cars and kill everyone but be careful about the van. 

The gun shots are so audible, I cut the call and make another one, "I want you to look into something" I say "Yes I am aware I am already on it, I got a notification as soon as the tracker was switched on" he said. "be on call and keep me updated about the silliest thing you discover" I say and I start looking at the mirror. I now accelerate more and then take a turn, making the van stop right in front of me. I look at the driver into his eyes and get hold of my gun and walk out of the car, he seems pretty scared " I have nothing to do, I was just hired to drive" he says, I shoot the guys behind him and ask him to get down and open the van quick. I look into the van and I get pushed inside by the driver I hit him on his head with the gun but at the moment I am inside the van and he locks me inside. I scream at him and hit bullets on the vans door and get even more angrier about leaving my phone in the car. 

I look back and view Eliza lying on a stretcher, this isn't a van this is an ambulance. The cardiac monitor is now viewing her heartbeat, in utmost disbelief I let my tears fall. 

Author's POV: 

The past weeks have been challenging personally and also professionally but I guess that's life. I was thinking a lot about writing the next chapter and felt really guilty of not writing, I was not happy about it at all but also given the circumstances around, it felt okay to slow down, appreciate and do things in my own pace.

Hope you enjoy this chapter!!!!!!! Thank you so so so so much for reading this far, I hope you are doing well and you are doing things at your own pace. Take care & see you soon!

 Take care & see you soon!
