Critical Condition Of His Mother, Everything Has Its Price!

He kept pacing around in the corridor in front of the ICU ward with utmost tension.

He heard a small girl complaining her mother while making through the corridor.

He remembered his sister this moment.

And his eyes got slightly wet.

He took out his phone and dialed the landline number.

He thought that he would see endless happiness on the face of his mother and small sister yet he was here praying that his mother could sustain her breaths and survive from the ordeal of life and death.

He dialed the number but cancelled before his sister could answer.

"What I am going to tell her? She would ask lots of questions, how am I going to answer her?" he looked around and he thought that he never felt this helpless before.

He was calm and shy from his childhood.

He always preferred to keep distance from any quarrel and harsh activities like protest in the college or shouting slogans at the opponents.

He was thoughtful about his mother and small sister and study hard to bring a reason for their happiness which was a promising future ahead.

If he was allowed he would have cried when he saw his mother pooled in blood.

"Small An. is alone in the house, what should I do,? think of something Yue Jing," he was standing against the wall with one arm supporting his stature while with the other one he was throwing slaps on the hard wall, his face looking at the floor beneath, he did not feel that he was hurting himself.

He walked toward ICU.

He looked inside the ICU from the glass window to see what was the condition of his mother, there was oxygen mask on her mouth, there were several life supporting machines indicating her pulse, heart beat, and much.

The senior doctor instructed the juniors and walked out.

He wanted to talk to someone who was with the patient.

"Mr. Yue, I can't say anything, next 72 hours are important for the patient, she has only sliver of pulse nothing else, only a miracle could bring her back to life if she could survive, blood loose is beyond recovery yet we are trying our best," doctor patted on the shoulder of the young man and went back in the ICU.

Yue Jing fell in another round of suffering.

He finally let it.

He could not hold his tears anymore, no man ever cry in any ordinary situation.

He fell on his knees for long.

He wiped his face and dialled the landline line number but this time not his own house but the neighbor's.

He explained the situation to the old lady and asked her to look after his small sister for a day and don't tell her anything about her mother.

He cannot leave his mother here alone.

He was sitting on the bench lowering his head when a girl in her lavish golden top and white lady pants came and stood in front of him, her hair was swinging down from the shoulders slightly curled from the bottom.

She was the perfect example of rich aristocrats.

"I am the sole heir of Ling Corporation and Business Empire, state your price and if you want a blank check I can sign it right now," a slow and soft yet domineering voice echoed in the corridor.

The famous Miss Ling was attending a party but suddenly she thought to drive back home and meet her mother who was ready to go abroad for another trip of Europe, she made wealthy friends there and she liked to spend her time there rather than to talk to her old conservative husband and sticky daughter who always complained her about her indifference toward her.

But the main road was bloacked because of traffic.

She thought to take another route to reach the direct Housing Society where only rich people could afford to live.

She was driving through busy market carelessly and she hit a woman who was buying something from the road stall.

Initially she thought to not give face but then she noticed the security cameras which must have recorded the incident so she had to stop there.

She thought that the woman was dead but someone came and took her in hospital and she followed and came here.

She gave a cheque with eyes opening digits on it to the Sargent who was on duty and he advised her to go and settle the matter with the kins of the woman.

So she was here.

Yue remembered this girl, she was standing close to his mother's blood pooled body and she seemed the culprit.

Before this moment, he never thought about the culprit.

And more of that her self introduction with such domineering attitude?

He stood up.

'Is she even guilty,? No, this attitude does not sound guilty,' there was not sliver of compassion in her eyes, she was looking at him like a rich would look at the poor.

"Your name and your status is none of my business," he never got this much angry before, he even never shouted at someone before.

His eyes were shooting death glares toward her.

"I am saying this just to tell you that I can compensate with the money as much as you want," she was not affected by his anger.

"You wanted to compensate with money?" his eyes squinted to hear her indifferent offer.

"Yes! just state your price," she shrugged her shoulders.

"You wanted to compensate a life with money? Do you think its fair enough?" he asked madly.

"Everything has its price even a life," she was ready to bring out her cheque book.

Her words were like piercing needles which were directly hitting his heart.

He was barely keeping control on his nerves.

Bang

He slapped at her hand which was carrying her cheque book and she was ready to write on it, the cheque book was sent away by his slap.

"I am not here to see your emotional drama, you see, do you wanted to sue in the court? do you even have enough money to face me in the court? Then try it," she stomped her feet and walked out the corridor leaving Yue in the Comma.

'She does not care a life? a life is nothing to her? then I will tell you what is the real value of a life,' he gritted his teeth.

He did not think to sue her, only he wished for his mother to get well, he would forget about this arrogant girl because she is nobody for him.
