An Ice Queen for sale (Alice)

Chapter 194 My little brother

I laid my head on his shoulder, but when I saw the ICU sign, I frowned. He walked inside with me and I frowned when I saw the familiar faces. Seth sat there with his arms crossed, laying his back and head against the wall. His eyes were open, staring at the wall opposite him. Apparently, he cried a lot. Sloane looked exactly the same. She hugged her mother, who embraced her. Mrs Sullivan's eyes were also red and puffy. Mr Sullivan stood there as well. laying his back against the wall, and his gaze was like Seth's. The whole family looked miserable, and I understood the reason.

They all looked at us. Because none of them spoke to me, I felt quilt. Actually, they had all the right to blame me. That was my family. They have lost Gideon because of me.

Seth and Mr Sullivan just moved to come to me when a nurse came out of a room. She nodded at Seth, who looked at Riccardo then, and Riccardo nodded as well

He let me go, which I did not like at all. He moved me to face him, and he sighed before he talked.

"Alice, he is in the room. He isn't well at all, so hold yourself back when you go in. Okay?"

I started to cry again, while I tried to understand what he just told me.

""What?" I asked.

"Gideon, he isn't well, but I think if he could hear your voice, he would fight harder."

I could not believe what he was saying.

"But, I saw..." I could not finish the sentence, as he cupped my face gently in his hands.

"It has never happened, Alice. That rat asked them to let you see it. He wanted to torture you, and he did that because he co Because you stopped fighting with him, thinking of the loss. They only made a small cut, which was bleeding. So he is alive. His is very ill at the could handle you better. moment, because he lost so much blood, but I am sure he wants to stay with you. Let him know you are okay, but be gentle."

I nodded, but I could not see him because of my tears. I glanced at the door, and my heart pounded so fast it felt like it would jump out of my chest. After Riccardo let me go, I walked to the door, and I opened it slowly. When I saw him, I covered my mouth. It was hard to see him like that, but he was breathing, and he was alive. I slowly approached his bed, then I held his hand. I caressed his face, which was back to life compared to how I saw him last time.

"Gideon." But I could not continue because I started sobbing. I covered my mouth. I tried to stop, not letting him feel I was crying next to him. It took me a while to regain my calmness.

"Gideon, I'm here. Please fight. I can't live without you. Please don't leave me alone."

That was all that I could say, as I started sobbing again. I think all that happened to us was just too much. After all that happened, I was so confident our life would bring happiness only. All the things happened was so sudden, I was certain we would need a long time to get back to normal.

I laid my head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat, and I stayed like that. I held his hand. All I wanted was to see him open his eyes and smile at me.

I don't know how long I was like that, but finally I heard the door to open. Seth entered the e room. He looked miserable as well.

Riccardo wants you to go out. You have a few wounds. Let them treat them. I'll stay

stay here until you come back. I'll take care of him."

1 straightened up, and I shook my head slowly.

"I don't want to leave him, Seth."

*I know, Alice, but your wounds need to be cleaned. I am guessing you don't want an infection. And you need a cleanup as well. His gaze moved on my -head. I just remembered I felt my blood leaked on my face, so I could imagine it dried on it and on my hair as well. But there was something that I

wanted to know.

"How was he when you found him?"

Seth lowered his head first. He tried to hold his tear back, and obviously, he was struggling to talk. He needed a few moments to exhale and talk.

"Alice, be satisfied if I say I didn't know how much I love this stupid, selfish...."

Chapter 194 My little brother

He could not continue, and he also failed to hold his tears. It took him a few seconds to regain his strength and talk again.

"Doesn't matter how big he grows, he always remains my little brother."

He said, while he held his other hand. He remained quiet for a little while, then he looked at me.

"He loves you so much. Honestly, he never loved a woman until you came into his life. He will need you, Alice, so please just listen to your wounds cleaned before you get an infection. I will take care of him till then."

His words made me cry again, but I nodded. I let Gideon's hand go, and I kissed his forehead.

"I'll be back."

your father. Get

I told him, and I left the room. Riccardo awaited me outside. When I got to him, he held me in his embrace. He walked down with me. We needed to walt a little, but soon a doctor appeared. He treated my wounds, which were a little painful, but the only thing I wanted was to go back to Gideon as soon as possible. I knew his family would take care of him, but I needed to feel him next to me. I never wanted to be separated from him again.
