Chapter 491 What if?

Only a few times before, cars filled the hospital parking lot. At that time, Hailee was hospitalized after she was attacked by someone and found out that she was pregnant and showing signs of a miscarriage.

It may be an ordinary sight of sports cars speeding up around the city. But this time, thirty of them parked disorderly in front of the hospital and crowded the place.

Because of the emergency alert message, James accidentally tapped on his phone. All the knights in Dream City drove toward the hotel. After the Air Paramedics took Hailee, they all followed to the hospital.

It's been two hours since Hailee was pushed to the Delivery Room, but they have no news of her and the babies.

At the lounge area...

The girls could not stop crying for fear of seeing Hailee bleeding and screaming with pain as she had labored.

"Is Hailee and the babies okay?"

Hazel has been asking this question every minute. The men can't do anything but endure the girls' wailing, understanding that they were only worried for Hailee and the four babies in her womb.

"Let's pray for their safety and good health."

Meanwhile…

Cassandra and Madison are pacing back and forth outside the Delivery Room. The two women feel forever as every second that has passed.

The future showed them that Hailee had lived. However, these passing five years have already changed the course. It made them wonder as they could not help feeling anxious with the question playing in their heads…

What if the babies die as well?

What will happen to Hailee?

What if the situation becomes reversed?

Instead of Vincent… What if Hailee is???

There is no such thing happening in the near future, so they didn't know what to conclude at this very moment.

It's not only Vincent who has the possibility of dying today; Hailee and the babies are also in grave danger.

"I should time travel once more. I need to know what changes soon." Madison decided. She could not wait any longer, as anticipation was tormenting her inside.

"Relax, sweetheart. A new life is forming in your womb. Please think of your body. So please, calm down." Levi did her best to comfort his wife since Madison didn't stop sobbing but getting more distress.

"Come here, Madison." Cassandra invited Madison to sit down and patted the space next to her. She hugged Madison tight, and the girl hugged her in return. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

"Madison, just take it slowly. We must remember not to abuse our ability and change everything the way we want. May we have good intentions? However, there are innocent and ordinary people fighting to survive every day; they might be caught up in between, and the effect is opposite to what we expected."

Madison realized she had acted impulsively so suddenly, which may be because of her pregnancy. Her mood swing is acting up frequently, which leads her to lose focus and keep herself composed.

"Thank you for your enlightenment, Mama."

She was embarrassed. She is a few years older than Cassandra, but she acts more mature like the older one here. It seemed like frequently traveling time completely changed her into a wise woman.

Among them, she suffers most from being trapped through timelines. Cassandra accepts her fate and lives to the truth in what she sees.

"I didn't mean you guys to worry about me, too." Madison apologizes.

She must take good care of both her physical and mental health. After all, even if she had a unique ability. She was still a human being and was blessed with the capability of conceiving a new life.

James, standing on the other side of the corridor, and monitoring the activity on the Group Chat, clenched his free hand into a ball of a fist.

He was under pressure about what to do from here on when the family was standing at death's door.

Vincent is missing, and the empress and the babies are in grave condition.

What would he do if things were worse than they had prepared for?

"James, what is the lead in searching for Vincent?" Andre, who was also waiting in the Delivery Room corridor, could not stay still. He was tempted to rush inside and stand by Hailee's side, cheering her to live for the sake of her children.

Before James could reply, Hector appeared at the door.

"Hailee is losing too much blood! She needs two more bags. James asks Geoffrey and Leo to get clearance and donate some of their blood."

"Right away!" James dashed out of the corridor and ran toward the lounge area, where everyone was waiting anxiously.

"Geoffrey! Leo! Hailee needs more blood! You have to get a test done."

"Alright." Geoffrey and Leo said at once.

Learning this, Vera got up from the sofa and volunteered. "I have the same blood type as Hailee. I want to donate too!"

Geoffrey looked at Vera with a tender gaze. He lifted his arm and rubbed her back while comforting her.

"It's okay. Leo and I are not the only same blood type as Hailee. We can all give our blood as much as she needs."

It was the actuality.

They were not just knights or Hailee's business partners or bystander knights.

As one of the most precious royal heiresses in this world, they were by her side to serve this purpose.

It was a duty they were honored to carry out and pass to their descendants.

A moment a while back…

Zen City, C Nation

Jacob and Frederick had dinner with the Shen Clan when his phone chimed with the emergency alert message tone.

"What's the matter, Jacob?" asked Frederick when Jacob dropped the wineglass in his hand.

"Hailee is…." Jacob's hand trembled at the thought of her daughter in critical condition. No one will activate the emergency alert message if nothing happens in Dream City.

"Sir!" Kristian, who also received the EAM, approached Jacob with a troubled expression on his face.

"Kristian! Did you find out what happened?" Jacob queried his former assistant.

"It's only a brief talk with James, sir. Instead of dialing Hector's contact, he accidentally activated the emergency alert message."

"Hector? Did something happen to my daughter?" Jacob rose from the dining chair and dialed a particular contact.

While waiting for the person to pick up his call, Kristian continues his reports.

"Sir, the princess bled, so they bring her to the hospital."

"What? Is she having a miscarriage at this time? She's in her third trimester!"

"I will inquire with the others, sir."

"Please do so." Jacob ordered Kristian.

Frederick, who was listening nervously in his seat, was startled when his phone rang suddenly.

"Hello? Tim!?"

"Si… sir… We… we… were attacked…."

Frederick was in great panic, listening to Tim's weak voice. He sounded like he was chasing his breath, giving him the idea that Tim was severely injured.

"Tim! Hang on! Where is my son? What happened to him?"

"I… Ugh… I'm so—sorry, sir. I… I do not know. U-huh…"

"Timothy!" Frederick heard Tim coughing hard on the other line.

"The gu–gunshots sound… It's getting farther, sir."

Frederick analyzes Tim's report. If the gunshots are drawing farther, then the attacker is chasing someone.

'Could it be?' He is sure about it because his son has been the assassination target by that organization. 'God, please… Keep my son safe!'

"Alright, Tim. Stop talking now and preserve your energy. Maybe some people from the assassins are still in the area. You have to hide."

"No, sir. I will check what was… U–huh…" Tim coughs once again before he continues. "The si–situation outside, sir."

"Are your wounds severe, Tim?" Fred queried. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

"Not that severe, sir… It's just… U—huh! It was just the smoke from the burning lodge from the kitchen and ve—vehicle outside, sir."

"Okay, Tim. Call us if you find out something. Please be careful, Tim."

"Yes, sir."

The call hung up, and Frederick dropped his body to his chair. He was shuddering from an unsettling feeling.

"Frederick, if Vincent was attacked at the lodge. Could Hailee possibly learn what happened?"

Frederick looked up at Jacob. He nodded and replied, "It must be something like that."

Jacob bathes with cold sweat all of a sudden. When it comes to Vincent, his daughter is too sensitive. Her emotions quickly become unstable.

'Be strong, my princess. Dad will be there soon!'
