Sold to the Ruthless Master

Lily’s Pov

We got to his room and I break down again when I saw the oxygen placed in his mouth.

“Lucian”I whisper as I walk towards him, he look so lifeless and pale.

I cupped his cheeks and he opened his eyes blearily.

“Lily”He whispered and I sniffed.

“You can do it Lucian, you can fight this, you’re a fighter, you’re a strong man”I cried holding his hand and he smiled.

“I can’t, you should move on with your life, I’m a liability already”

“Stop this Lucian, you can fight it, don’t be a weakling”I assured him and move his hand to my belly, he rub his softly and a tear slipped down his eyes.

“I’ve been an useless man, I’ve been a devil, I’ve cruel to you, I deserve no mercy, ever since I set my eyes on you, I’ve been causing you nothing but sadness, I want you to know this Lily, I never meant to do all this, find a place in your heart to forgive me, take care of the baby, all wealth should be transferred to you, I…”He stopped and start coughing again.

“Sorry, the doctor said you will be fine, it’s just a matter of some days, you will be fine, I can’t take care of this baby alone, how did you want me to do it?, this baby needs a complete home, I can’t do this alone”

“You can, you’ve been a courageous and kind woman, don’t try to underrate yourself because you’re one of the best, don’t stress yourself too much because I’m a failure”He whispered feebly and resume coughing again, this time, with less strength and energy, his eyes keep dilating and Daniel move closer to us.

“Call the doctor”I scream and he rush out immediately to get the doctor.

“Stop doing this to yourself Lily, you knew I told you to stay back at home, you turned deaf ears to me”

“I can’t stay back at home when the father of my baby is here”

“Sir”A guy dressed in black walk up to us and Daniel look up.

“I did my findings on it, can we go somewhere private and talk about this?”He said eyeing me.

“You can say it here”

“Mykel got the drug from a popular drug dealer in America, the production of the drugs stopped years ago but there’s an antidote which cannot be found”

“It cannot be found?”He repeated and he nodded.

“But, we can still get it through one of Mykel boys but unfortunately, they are not where to be found and Mykel has no friends, apart from a old friend, who might know about it”

“An old friend?, did you know anything about the old friend?”i asked curiously and he sighed.

“Yes, he’s Lucian father but he’s in the prison now”

“Lucian father is in the prison?, How?”I asked in shock and Daniel sighed.

“That’s not what we are talking about now, did you know where the prison is?”

“Yes sir, it’s at the far end of the city”

“Then let’s go”NôvelDrama.Org content.
