Chapter 180 - 180 ( The Reason You Fainted )
Quite surprised by the attention and feeling that Harry showed Cleo. Arthur could clearly see from his demeanor that Harry loved Cleo very much. He even loved her more than any other woman he had ever loved.
"Is she all right?"
Harry shook his head. Wasn't sure of the answer and can only speculate.
"I don't know. But now I feel uneasy and very anxious. Will she be all right?" asked Harry with a series of questions ingrained in his brain that he had a hard time saying.
"She seems quite devastated and frustrated. I could feel her body shiver. So that, please, speed up!"
Harry seriously asked Arthur to increase the speed of the car. Arthur immediately hit the gas at the maximum point.
They finally got to the nearest hospital in the fastest time in history. Woke Cleo up. But Cleo turns out passed out. Harry scurry took Cleo out of the car to see the doctor.
Harry had even got very angry when a nurse told him to be patient. Where his patience at this time shouldn't be tested.
Harry rebuke that nurse.
"Be patient? Patience from where? Do you think in this situation I can be patient?! Quickly call the doctor here!" He shrieked in annoyance and told the nurses to didn't waste time.
Arthur tried to calm Harry down.
"Calm down and don't make a fuss! Do you want us to be blacklisted?!"
Harry glared at him.
"If they dare to blacklist me, then I will crush this hospital to the ground. Do you think I can calm down? Stop saying that and don't bother me! Just tell them to move fast and don't keep me waiting!"
"Doctor!! Doctor!!"
Harry shouted loudly for the doctor to come immediately. A doctor then walked into the patient's room. Then ordered everyone to come out for a while to make the examination easier.
Harry and Arthur to be waiting outside for a moment uncomfortably. Then, Arthur tried many times to say nice things to calm Harry down. The door to the patient's room was opened shortly after the doctor finished his examination.
That caused Harry to instantly throw himself forward and ask anxiously.
"How is her condition? What happened to her? How could she be shivering with such fear and fainting? What really happened?" asked Harry with a flurry of questions.
"Calm down, okay?!"
Arthur contrived to contain Harry's nervousness by pressing his shoulder. The two of them then listened to the doctor's explanation with full attention.
"The patient experienced acute post-incident trauma. She seems to have experienced trauma that is almost similar to what happened to her today. The symptoms that she shows clearly show that her conscious mind is calling back bad memories to come out. Can you explain in more detail what actually happened before this?"
Harry became tensed and began to pressure himself not to become emotional about recounting the incident that had provoked him.
"My wife was just about to be raped. And the two rogues who did that seem to have traumatized her very strongly. I don't know the details. But, I can see the rough picture. She looked very frightened and shivered violently before she fell unconscious. That's all I can explain. Is this really serious?" Harry asked very anxiously.
The doctor seemed to think for a moment before he answered. The doctor even adjusted the position of his slightly lowered glasses and then looked at the patient's family.
"It depends on the case and how the patient's mental condition is. I can only find out in full when she is fully conscious and can answer my questions. But what I can catch from the symptoms that appear, until when I checked the X-ray results. Today her brain memory collided slightly. Where this incident didn't seem to have happened just once."
Harry felt his heart skip a beat.
"Has this incident happened in the past?" asked Doctor Angga with all his arguments and then raised a question that surprised everyone.
Harry and Arthur looked at each other. A little confused by the explanation and couldn't answer the question because they both didn't know. Arthur then asked in horror.
"So you're saying something similar has happened?" Arthur asked with all his great curiosity and doubt.
Doctor Angga seemed certain. However, he could not give further certainty until he heard the testimony directly from the person concerned. He then answered.
"I can only explain it medically and conclude predictions. Again, it is the patient who can give a more detailed explanation. Therefore, we should wait until she wakes up."
Harry immediately matched his words.
"But you believe that her brain memory collided because she remembered something similar that happened before today?" Harry with great enthusiasm, it was hard to accept this fact. Harry was in a state of extreme shock.
Had it really happened before?
However, why did all this time everything seem normal?
"Yes. But because of her great inner strength and desire to forget her bad past, your wife seems to be burying the bad memories deep. However, everything popped out when a similar incident happened again. You should take good care of your wife."
Doctor Angga's words made Harry feel even more anxious. He then left them to make some notes in his workroom.
Harry felt his body suddenly go limp and his legs suddenly lost strength. He was very shocked to accept that fact and very curious about what really happened to Cleo in the past.
While Arthur kept trying to comfort Harry when he realized that Harry was so shocked by the news that he couldn't lift his face and looked down grimly.
A phone call interrupted their thoughts. Luan's name was clearly written on Arthur's cell phone. Arthur immediately picked it up and answered the call.
Luan hurriedly asked.
"How? Is everything under control?" Luan checked the current situation on the other side of the phone.
Arthur glanced at Harry for a moment then deliberately kept his distance to keep his phone away from the now upset man.
"Not too good. Because Cleo seems to be seriously traumatized by this incident. We're in the hospital right now," said Arthur in a flat tone that made Luan panic.
"What really happened? Why did things get so serious?"
Luan had already predicted the time and their speed of finding the location where Cleo was being held. Where the count of time was arguably so short that Luan believed the criminals must not have much time to hurt Cleo.
But something even worse happened?
Arthur answered the question simply. Sighed long and it was hard to testify.
"I can't go into details because the current situation is still ambiguous. If you're curious, you can come over here and see it for yourself. We're still waiting for Cleo to come to her senses. You'd be surprised too if you heard her testimony," Arthur's statement made Luan even more curious.
Where Luan and Arthur had only met once indirectly with Cleo when their wedding day was held. After that, Luan had never known the woman and had only seen her from the profile data that Harry had ordered him to find out.
Arthur himself had also never seen Cleo again when all the bad things happened. Arthur felt guilty because they weren't good enough to find her.
Cleo finally came to her senses after an hour of being unconscious. Harry who had faithfully guarded her by her side without moving an inch, immediately stood up to greet her.
"You awake?" asked Harry softly and had taken a 180 degree turn from his initial emotions when he arrived and when he found out about Cleo's problem.
Harry was now trying to show his calm side in front of Cleo. Didn't want to make her think too hard or even become even more frantic.
Cleo, who had just managed to open her eyes, swept her gaze in all directions weakly and realized that she was in one of the rooms in the hospital.
Cleo's gaze then shifted to the man who had been looking at her anxiously and gently from the side of her bed. Followed by a man she did not know.
"Am I in the hospital?" Cleo was blinking her eyes twice to correct her slightly blurred vision from having just opened her eyes.
Harry was already holding Cleo's hand anxiously.
"Yes. Are you feeling better?" Harry asked without asking anything else.
Cleo nodded slightly. Can remember clearly what had happened to her, Cleo's tears then became wet again.
Harry then tried to calm her down by giving her a hug.
"It does not matter. It's all over. Don't think about it," Harry tried to calm Cleo gently.
Arthur was even more surprised by Harry's attention. But can understand because the current situation clearly required a lot of attention. Arthur just stayed where he was without any intention of disturbing the harmony of the two.
"Can I know the reason you fainted?" asked Harry by opening up a question about how Cleo could pass out until she acted so excessively.
Cleo looked confused. Until Harry then continued his speech.
"I know you must have been acutely and very seriously traumatized by such a horrific event, but.."
Cleo's eyes seemed to be looking at Harry seriously.
Arthur joined in waiting impatiently for the continuation of Harry's question.
"But what?" Cleo asked quietly, helplessly.
Harry didn't really have the heart to ask her about this kind of question at first, considered that Cleo had just woken up after she passed out. Harry then asked reluctantly, unable to contain his curiosity.
