Sold To A Billionaire novel Chapter 107

“WHAT a cute family?!” shouted Bill and laughed. “Do you think things will be easy just like that? I’m not a fool, Helios. If I die, I will drag you down. And I’m going to take this building down. Now, let’s play, finding the bombs,” he said and grinned.
“Helios...”
Helios kissed Zoe on her forehead, “Everything’s going to be fine. Let’s get you out,” he said. “Don’t let them escape. Take all of them out of this building!”
They were about to leave when Amanda screamed. Her sister’s attention was on Beige.
Helios turned to them.
“Sir, the bomb in him is activated,” one of the assassins said.
“I told you. I’m not a fool, Helios!” shouted Bill, who the two men were holding.
Her eyes widened as she trembled because of fear. The timer is only one minute and twenty seconds. Her eyes were enveloped by tears again, as she was afraid of what she was seeing. But Helios led her out. Her chest was heavy as she left the place.
“Helios, where’s Sam and Cindy,” she asked between her sobs.
“Grant took care of them,” he answered. “Stay here, and I will get back to get Amanda,” said Helios, but she stopped him.
“No. It’s dangerous—”
“All bombs were defused!” shouted Ali, holding a shotgun on his right shoulder. His left hand was in his left pocket while he walked closer to them.
“No… how?” Bill said softly. But he also knew the answer. He knows how innovative the team is. He knows that nothing is impossible with the help of the mafia boss. But he laughs loudly, “as expected. But the bomb attached to your son, Lincoln, will explode. And you can’t do anything about it. It’s a kind of bomb that has multiple wires that are all connected in one line. If you cut any of it—boom!” he gestured a blast in his hand. “It’s a newly formulated bomb. So, how’s that?”
Helios laughed. “Anyway, he’s your son,” he said.
“No!” Bill shouted.
Amanda couldn’t hold her rage, and she shouted, “He’s your son, Bill. Beige is your son!”
“No! I don’t have a child! You’re all going to die! That child is going to die!” Bill shouted.
Amanda burst into tears as she hugged her son, who kept crying too.
At that moment, Helios can’t find the old Bill. All they can see is a Bill who is eaten by his hatred. He’s not the friend he used to be. His mind was hindered. The information he said is untrue. They’re not brothers by blood. And it never crossed his mind that his uncle Lucio was alive. All he thought was that he was already dead when his mother died in that incident, but it turns out that the old man was the one who ruined his friend’s mind.
“Use a fogger.”
The newcomer grabbed everyone’s attention.
“The Boss,” Helios whispered.
The man was wearing black pants and a black T-shirt tucked into his black leather jacket. His black hat covered his face, and only his mouth was visible. The man’s aura is unusual because it gives goosebumps.
“Bill Crase, I hereby sentenced you to death—” Bill suddenly grabbed the gun strapped to the side of the man holding him. Things happened fast, and almost everyone inside didn’t expect what he did.
He quickly pulled the trigger, and Helios fell off the ground... and blood started to flow down from the back of his head.
“No!” Zoe screamed.
Everyone was shocked by what happened. The boss didn’t think twice as he pulled the trigger and shot Bill. The latter then fell off the ground, breathless.
…
There’s no bloody war happened, but the fall of Helios gives a thousand stabs to everyone’s chest. All of them were saved, but Helios is inside the ER, fighting between living and death. A moment ago, he was smiling at Zoe and her daughter, stating everything would be fine, and now, he’s there, and Zoe doesn’t know if he can survive.
After waiting for almost an hour, the doctor announced, “The patient is in a coma.”
It’s a shot in the head, and based on research, only five percent survive gunshot wounds in the head. When a bullet hits the body, all its energy is transferred to the body tissue, causing damage. The heavier the bullet and the faster it moves, the more damage it can potentially cause. And Helios was hit not in the body but his head, and it’s more difficult to predict.
Thinking that the skull is a closed box that cradles the brain. There isn’t much room for movement in the brain or swelling in the skull. If the bullets enter the head and bounce around, the permanent cavity-the bullet track may be significant, but the damage from the temporary cavity that forms is even worse. There is no room for the brain to move, and the shock waves often cause irreversible damage.
The thought of it slowly kills Zoe’s heart.
How could God possibly break you by trying to get the people you love? But it’s all part of our life, and she can’t blame God.
God has nothing to do with the wrongdoings of people. It’s on the people. Bill let himself be dictated to and fed up with false information. And the aftermath tries to take a life from her precious. She knew that God had plans, and now, he was the only one she could hold to. She’s praying and hoping that Helios will choose life over death... because they need him.
After that day, The Rojas family and Helios’s friends decided to bring Helios to California for better medication.
She’s not losing hope... miracle happens.
She has faith.
She believes that… with God, nothing is impossible.
