Chapter 33

Eloise's pov
I didn't want to exhaust myself fighting him back, I wriggled out of his grip, and I ran to a corner where I knew he wouldn't see me. He ran down the road, not knowing I hid in the alley. I started feeling sharp pains in my stomach and I was feeling dizzy too.
I need to reach out to someone before it's too late. I brought out my phone from the pocket of my shorts and I called Victor. I put his number on speed dial as he had told me to do. He picked on the first ring.
"Help me,"
"Where are you?" I could not say anything. "I will find you, don't hang up please,"
Victor's pov
"Victoria can you track where Eloise is?" I went to David's place today because I was bored at home. I have been coming here every day after work.
"Yes, why?" She started tracking her down on her laptop.
"She called to ask me to help I feel like she's in trouble," I panicked
'Are you still on the call with her?" David asked me.
"Yeah,"
"I really hope what happened then didn't repeat itself,"
"What do you mean?" I questioned him.
"I found her, she is at Club 106, it's outside this estate."
"Eloise, are you there?" I said to her from my phone but she didn't say anything. I could hear her groan. "She's in pain, let's go get her,"
I grabbed my car keys, I didn't have my Ashton Martin today. I brought a Mercedes g-class Anderson got me on my birthday.
Victoria and David followed me. I drove as fast as I could to the club. We followed Victoria's tracker and it led us to an alley. I turned on my flash. I saw Eloise lying on the floor in a pool of blood.
"My goodness," Victoria yelled as soon as she saw her
I carried her to my car, I let David drive while I stayed in the back seat with Eloise in my seat. Victoria sat in the passenger's seat. David drove us to the nearest hospital.
She was taken to a VIP room at my request, While tests were being run on her, we waited in front of her room. I called Chan to run an investigation on the situation.
My clothes were soiled with blood, Eloise's phone and it was her mom.
"Hello, ma," I said immediately after I picked up her call.
"Hello, Mr. Hart. Why are you with Eloise's phone?" I am surprised she recognized my voice. "I want to speak with Eloise,"
Should I tell her the truth? I should not have picked up her phone.
"We are at the hospital ma. She's unconscious right now,"
"What," She yelled. "Send me the address to the hospital, I will be there with her father."
"Okay, ma,"
I sat on the chair, if only I didn't let her go. I am such a fool. My phone rang for like the nth time this night. I had been ignoring the calls that came, then Victori took my phone from me and pick it up.
She and the called exchanged a few words and she hung up. "Are you alright?" She patted my back and tears rolled down my eyes. "Chan said Sam attacked her, and he is on a run. Your men met him in our street."
"I should not have let her go,"
"It's not your fault," She said to me
"I wouldn't agree with that. Your coward ass can't even take responsibility for a woman you love. Do you know what she went through after the trip,"
"That's okay Dave, don't lose it. Eloise wouldn't like this."
"What is it?" I asked them but they didn't say anything. I grabbed David by his shirt. "Tell me!"
"Leave my shirt man," he said to me and I ignored him then he threw a punch at my check. I released his shirt from my grip before I could punch him back, he hit my face with his fist multiple times and Victoria pulled him away from me.
"This is a hospital, stop this."
"I told you not to ask her out at that time. Women need time and they are egotistic. Your overheard her conversation with her friend but did you go after her. No, you left her alone. She got addicted to drinking, smoking weed, she stopped eating, ghosted everyone." He stopped then he continued.
"Do you know what she told me when I visited her in the hospital, she said she didn't date no one because she wasn't worth them. If you loved her then you should have shown her serious and deep you were. She would not have been involved with Sam or whatever his name was."
"When she called earlier, I thought she got wasted and she passed out somewhere dangerous,"
I didn't know to react to what he said, I just froze on the spot. The doctors came out of her room.
"How is she?" I asked the lead doctor.
"She lost her baby," The doctor said to me. "Her bruises and injuries have been taken care of,"
"How is she pregnant? She had her period recently."
"It's different for everyone, some women have their period throughout pregnancy, some in the first trimester alone,"
Shit, our baby. This is all my fault. I can't face Eloise.
"Can we go in now?" Victoria asked the Doctor.
"Yes, please alert us if she wakes up. We still need to run some tests on her," The doctors left and Victoria and David entered the room. I waited out for a while outside and David came to meet me.
"When are you coming in?" He asked and I stood up from the chair I was sitting on, "You coward fool, there you go running away again." He yelled after me but I ignored him.
***
I went to my house to change my clothes and take a shower because I reeked of blood. After I cleaned up, I went back to the hospital. David and Victoria already checked out the Visitor's logbook and her parents were in.
I joined them inside her room.
"Good evening Mr. Keys, good evening ma." I greeted them as I entered the room.
"I didn't know you were close enough to impregnate my daughter. That's not even my point, how could let someone that is carrying your baby get harmed." Mr. Keys said.
"Honey, you heard what his friends told us, it's not his fault," She tried to convince him.
"It is my fault ma'am. I will be sure to take responsibility," I bowed my head to them.
"Marry her then, How else would you take responsibility," He suggested, it sounded like he commanded me.
"I will do that if she wishes to marry me only,"
"Don't mind him, his mind is a little fussy right now, pardon his gibberish talk and help us watch her. We will bring some food for her tomorrow."
"Good night,"
Good night." I said to them. Mrs. Keys adjusted the cover on Eloise before they left.
I sat down on one of the chairs beside her and I held her hand.
"All these had happened to you and I didn't know. No one told me about it. This is not fair Eloise, you pinned me to be the bad guy. Now I can't blame you for leaving me, you said the hurtful to me and you were the one that ended up being hurt,"
"I wanted to tell to not to leave that day, I was a little disappointed that you weren't pregnant," I touched her stomach. "But the doctor said you lost our baby today, I don't know how you will react to this when you wake up because deep down I know you wanted a baby, I saw the way you treated Megan like your child."
"Your dad wants us to get married but I won't force you into anything. I hope we take time to love each other and heal together. Despite the fact that we can't stand each other, these past two weeks we spent apart from each other made me long for your presence. I Love you, Eloise, I have always loved you,"
"The man that did this to you, to us, I will make sure he gets caught and he would be dealt me," I kissed her hand and I stood up to kiss her forehead.
I will have Eloise move into our estate, there is much more security there. I am counting on Chan and my men to catch that jerk as soon as possible.
