234 The Fall

Clifford chuckled at his son's reply.

"Oh boy, I think I have to consider retiring early and just produce more twins for you to look over." He joked.

"Are you sure dad? That would be so cool!!" Clifford's laughter echoed the area.

…♥…♥…♥…

From time to time, Clifford would go back to Diamond City to have monthly meetings with the shareholders. He would be often gone for a week and would immediately go back to Vienna as he misses his family so much. Especially that Ingrid's tummy is getting bigger and that he can't let her be stressed on her own. Ingrid is already seven months pregnant and by far her pregnancy is safe and that the twins are healthy.

However, this time, he could not go back to Vienna as scheduled since there was an urgent commotion in VeanCo. Someone left a backpack in the ladies comfor room which caused panic and stampede.

Gary is panicking, too, which is evident on his sweating foreheads, hands and armpits as he reported to his boss.

"Sir, err, uhmm… there's an emergency at the second floor... One of the customers spotted a backpack in the ladies comfort room and heard some ticking sounds in it. In effect, the customers created a disorder and rush outside."

Clifford was stunned upon hearing the report.

"Have you called the police? Is there any casualties? How's the situation now?" He rose from his seat and marched forward to go to the scene.

"But sir, just be here in your office to be safe. They have already sent the bomb squad and are now diffusing it." Gary panicked all the more upon realising his master's intention.

"NO! I can't just sit here and wait." He stubbornly said.

"But sir– you, I mean, we couldn't do anything about the bomb and it's for your own safety sir. Please sir, there's still madam, the young master and the young twins waiting for your return." He saw pleading in Gary's eyes and his words made him stopped in his tracks.

"Inform me immediately after the bomb is diffused and investigate this matter at once! Someone's trying to sabotage my company."

"I've already sent some men to investigate it sir."

Clifford dismissed Gary and he took his phone and dialled his wife's number. Just few rings and he heard her lazy voice,

"Honey, when are you coming back? I miss you." Ingrid purred as if she's just awakened.

"Hmm, did I disturb your sleep?" he smiled as he imagines her puffy eyes.

"Mmmm… nope, I'm just sleepy." he heard her yawned.

"Love, I can't return tonight as scheduled, there's an emergency in Veanco that needs my attention. I'll explain it to you when I come home, okay? Please take care." Clifford doesn't want his wife to worry so he concealed the matter to her.

"Are you okay? Your voice sounds shaky…"

He cleared his throat before he speaks again, not wanting his dear wife to worry and instead diverted their topic.

"Ye-yeah, I'm okay. I'm just a little tired for the meeting. I miss you so badly. Your scent, your morning kisses, our love makings…" He grinned.

"Hey! Stop it! I'm sweating cold here. Come back immediately or I'll 'punish' you!" Ingrid giggled.

"Well, I'm more than willing to take that sweet 'punishment' of yours."

"Oh c.r.a.p!" Ingrid groaned. Their conversation lasted for couple or more minutes before they hang up.

The bomb incident lasted for almost an hour and Gary immediately went back to his boss office in a speed.

"Sir! Sorry for interrupting you, but they have found a note inside the bag." Gary handed it to him.

The letter is written in a bond paper with red stains on it which states,

YOU'RE REALLY NOT MY TARGET BUT THE DIVERSION. RESCUE HER IF YOU CAN.

He clenches his fist and throws the paper with such rage and terror filled his eyes.

'NO, NO, NO, NO. NOT MY WIFE!' he roared in his thoughts. 'Whoever you are, I swear I'll be the one to kill you!'

"GARY!!! THE PERSON BEHIND THIS IS AFTER MY WIFE!!! PREPARE THE PLANE, NOW! I NEED TO PROTECT MY WIFE."

"Right away sir."

Without delay he called the pilot instructing him to prepare for departure. But the pilot said that they'll be delayed because the aircraft in still in maintenance and it'll take an hour or more to finish it.

"Book me the earliest flight today! I don't want delay. Do you understand me?" he demanded. Storm is brewing in his eyes at the same time fear. He closed his eyes in helplessness.

Clifford tried to call her but he could not reach her. This added to his dread all the more.

Gary scurried away with the fear that his boss might explode in rage.

…♥…♥…♥…

Meanwhile, it was almost six in the evening when Ingrid decided to leave the office. After knowing that her husband won't be around tonight she decided to take another hour just to finish the last doc.u.ment she needed to sign.

She stretched her legs and arms and caressed her tummy.

"Thank you for being so behave today twins." She giggled when they kicked and then she frowned after because of some pain.

The two kept kicking in her tummy everytime she forgot to talk to them or caress them or everytime their father is near and is talking to them. They keep on kicking her tummy and would only stop if their father commanded them.

But today, they are especially behaved of which she is thankful. She took her purse and called her driver to prepare the car. When she went out there's no longer people in sight. She looked outside and darkness already filled the sky.

She sighed and slowly walked her way to the elevator. Her brows creased when the b.u.t.ton is not functioning. So she went to the three more elevators but all of it is not functioning.

Ingrid felt helpless.

'Ughh! If only Clifford is here.' She called the driver and asked him to go to the maintenance to fix the problems.

The moment she hangs up, the lights flickered and she felt goose b.u.mps all over her body. Without warning the lights went off.

"Oh dear! What is happening?" She mumbled.

She used the flash on her phone to illuminate her path and decided to take the stairs. She's not fearful of the dark but at that moment she feels something's not right so she decided to take the stairs.

When she was on the second floor from her office she lost her balance upon stepping on one of the stairs.

She screamed in pain.

She feared for the lives of her twins.

'Oh please, Good Lord, protect my twins.' Desperately she prayed.

Tears fell from her eyes and faintly prayed that someone rescues her. Her phone and her purse fell from her grasp straight to the bottom of the stairs.

'Why is it slippery here?' she frowned as she feels the pain again.

Ingrid tried to stand up despite the seething pain in her tummy and she felt that there's some liquid flowed on her thighs.

'Oh please don't.' she weep.

"HEEEELLLPPPP!!!" she screamed.

She cried.

"SOMEONE, PLEASE HELP ME!"

She weeps again, gritting her teeth because of the pains and sores she feel.

However, her fall did not stop there as she touched the floor to try to stand up she felt some sticky liquid in her hands and she realized that that the stairs are slippery and when she tried to stand up again her balanced swayed and had another serious fall.

This time, she curved herself into a ball to protect her twins. She fell from two sets of stairways and went lifeless.
