The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 216

"Huh.. Huh..". That breath was Mahendra's breath. A breath that was exhaled with hope.
_Don't take Aruna.. Don't take my treasure.._
***
"Aah".
His eyes were open and wandered through every inch of the room. Where's this? Where am I?
His body was too frail to sit because his head still felt so heavy. But it wasn't Hendra if he didn't force himself. That man didn't find the sun who usually accompanied him, but there were other bodyguards who also often accompanied him. Hary sat there alone, feeling anxious.
He was even more agitated and shocked when the sole heir woke up and pulled out his IV line.
"Sir..". That personal guard knew this was bound to happen.
"Be patient, Sir. Please..". Unfortunately, that bodyguard forgot who he was talking to. It wasn't Hendra if he just kept lying in this condition.
The blue-eyed stood up and almost fell, holding his bed.
"Huh.. Huh..". He tried to balance himself. His breath rose and fell. It seemed the medicine he hated the most (sleeping pills) was still tricking his body.
"Where am I?".
"You're already in Jakarta". That bodyguard started to get up, intending to help his young master.
"Oh, I see..". Hendra tried to approach Hary.
"Where… Where's Surya?". He approached the bodyguard who used to slip something in his coat. Hendra had an ulterior motive.
"Sorry, I can't say".
Just as Hary grabbed his master's body to help him lie down on the bed, that man reached for the gun that was tucked into the bodyguard's pocket at lightning speed.
"Tell me where's your position?". Hary immediately raised his hands. He was shocked.
"I don't understand what you mean".
"Uh.. Hahaha". Hendra laughed at himself.
"Who can I trust here? Why don't you just kill me?". That voice made the guards outside peek inside.
Hendra shot the edge of the door so that people outside didn't enter the room where he was being treated. He needed someone he could trust.

Unfortunately, that man fell on the floor before he could find out where Surya was and whose side Hery was on.
The blue-eyed was forced to lie down again due to the effect of the drug.
.
.
When he woke up for the second time, that man had more control over his body. The guard was still the same. Hery approached and immediately grabbed his arm. That bodyguard hoped that Hendra wouldn't take off the IV in his hand: "I'll be loyal to you. Please don't take it off. You need to be healthy first before thinking about anything else".
"Why? You pity me?!". Wenceslas's sole heir smiled sadly at his bodyguard.
"No.. I just remember Surya's message. He said that I have to treat you humanely because we're all human". That bodyguard spoke while looking down.
"Where's Surya?". Hendra asked, trying to sit up.
"Surya has resigned. He can't stand the way these people treat you". Hery didn't dare to raise his head yet.
"Get the people outside out of the way. I must meet Surya".
"It'll be easy tomorrow morning.. We can just say you need a walk and then sneak out".
"Why? How many people are outside? Ten?".
"More".
"Ha.. Haha". Mahendra closed his eyes for a moment. His mind returned to the past. The same thing happened to him when he rejected this marriage and used Tania as an excuse.
And Wiryo's people caught him and prevented him from getting out of the hotel room. The way to solve the same problem and the same thing was also used to solve the problem with his wife.
"Grab my cellphone". Mahendra's request was immediately obeyed by his bodyguard.
_Aruna must be tormented in the bathroom. Is really scared of being locked up? Sorry_
Mahendra observed his woman's laughter when she greeted the dolphins. The short video he took on Lovina Beach.
"Hen.. Why do you like dawn over dusk?".
That voice made him freeze. There was a sharp pain in his chest.

"Sir, do you want to get out of here now?". Surprisingly, Hery made a brave statement.
Hendra only stared at him.
"You know why I always accompany you compared to the others?". Hery's words were only responded by a glance from his master.
"I used to be an illegal wrestler. Hehe.. Before senior Raka found me. I'm sure you understand what I mean, right?".
"Then why do you hesitate?". Hendra asked, looking at his bodyguard who looked down.
"But you don't seem to have recovered. Even though I can trick them, if you get caught, you'll be treated even worse". The man named Hery had an athletic body. The funny thing was that it was in contrast to his attitude which looked innocent and was often awkward when talking directly to the CEO of Wenceslas Group.
"I was actually waiting for you to let your guard down, hoping to take the clothes you use. If needed, something in your pocket to run away from here". Hendra explained.
"Ah, really?". Hery lit up hearing him.
"Then let's do it, Sir".
"Wait a minute..". Hendra contacted someone from Wenceslas Ritz Hotel to deliver his motorbike.
.
After a while, they started changing clothes. Hery came out first, wearing a patient uniform and Mahendra's coat. Spontaneously, the people in charge of guarding approached the bodyguard who was in disguise.
"I'm bored. I want to go for a walk". Hery tried to trick them by imitating the way Hendra spoke.
The bodyguard who pretended to be Mahendra was walking away from the inpatient door carefully, accompanied by a group of guards who tried to follow him. Unfortunately, one of them began to suspect. The heir of Wenceslas never bowed his head, let alone covered it with a hat. When one of them moved closer and tried to check, Hery ran as fast as he could.
And Hery was being chased. It wasn't long before that man was caught. The result was surprising when they realized that he wasn't the heir to Wenceslas. The others immediately turned around and some pressed their earbuds, calling each other.
Hery tried to fight back, freeing himself from the two people who locked his arms. He stopped everyone who turned around. A fistfight in the hospital hallway was inevitable.
While at the other end, Hendra had managed to get out safely. He sneaked to various sides. It was a shame that the other units who were on guard at each exit were more alert in observing people passing by, including the owner of the blue eyes.
Those who began to recognize the characteristics of Hery's clothes and suspicious movements slowly approached the blue-eyed. Hendra walked quickly and then slipped into a patient's room, making the person inside confused. A sick little girl who was accompanied by a sleeping woman, maybe she was her mother, furrowed her eyebrows seeing Hendra. This man smiled and gave instructions using his index finger. That man put his index finger on his lips.
The confused little girl nodded and fell silent when she saw Mahendra. He smiled back. Maybe she was amazed by the dimples of an angelic face.
The blue-eyed walked past the front of the little girl's bed to check the window. Unfortunately, the hospital window was different from the hotel. At the hospital, there was no balcony to jump from one balcony to another.
Hendra smiled then left that girl. He went out the door after feeling safe. Then he continued sneaking.
.
"Hahaha". There was the typical grinning laugh of the Wenceslas Group CEO. He found the motorbike that was prepared for him in the basement already guarded by several people and the others began to arrive.
"Sir, we know you haven't fully recovered. Please don't do it".
Hendra ignored their warnings, walking over to his motorbike.
Just as one of them tried to grab his shoulder, the Wenceslas Group's sole heir pointed the gun: "Back off, guys".
