Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 623 Where Did He Go?
"You do not need to. We are taking him with us once you give him basic treatment." said Eli in a stern voice when both Andrew and Hannah frowned at her.
"Eli, I did not think that it was a good idea. After the last physician was fired from the palace and taken to the prison for his treason, we did not have another one to take care of the sick." she reminded Eli, thinking that she was forgetting but Eli nodded her head readily.
"Hannah, the physician can not save him but I can." She held both of the shoulders of the trembling woman and looked straight into his eyes, "you have to trust me on this!"
Hannah wanted to refuse, since it sounded unreal. But when she looked into the confidence of her face, she nodded her head.
As Eli had said, the physician could not save him. If there is a chance, she must take it.
"Thank you!" That was a hard decision.
Eli looked at Andrew who nodded his head readily and then held Ethan in his arms as they took him out. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎
The bleeding was stopped and all the wounds were bandaged well.
Hannah sat beside him while keeping his head in her laps again.
She felt a strange pain in her abdomen when the carriage started but she endured it and did not tell them. She stared at her belly and bit her lips,
"Oh son, your father needs me more at this moment, please endure a bit." she whispered as she closed her eyes.
The carriage bumped again and the pain increased. Her eyes closed and a tear escaped her eyes. God was truly testing her.
She didn't know how to bear all this anymore.
Her eyes were closed all the time and she clutched her dress tightly when she heard Eli.
"You did not need to cry Hannah. We will save him." She nodded but did not open her eyes as she was worried that Eli would realize her pain.
The whole journey was a torment. But just as the door was opened and Hannah tried to stand up when Andrw took Ethan in his arms and started walking in, she lost her balance and fell into the arms of Eli who was shocked.
She held Oli tightly and then shouted,
"Maids come here and help me. The lady.. Something happened to her." A few maids came forward and helped Eli in holding Hannah and walked in.
One of them was old enough and noticed the wetness in her clothes and the contraction of her belly.
"She is ready to give birth, lady Elizabeth." said the elderly woman, making her scared.
"Oh, do you know a midwife that could come and help instantly?" she did not know what to do as she started to panic. Her hands turned sweaty as she placed Hannah in the nearest room on the ground floor.
The maid checked the pulse of Hannah and shook her head.
"That would not be possible, my lady. The lady had already been suffering for many hours. If we waste time, the child will lose his life." she warned when Eli bit her lips.
"Then we had to do it. You must have given birth, right?" she asked the elderly woman who nodded her head readily.
"Yes, and I have helped my daughter in law too. I will try my best. But I need some warm water and towels and…" Eli called a few maids to assist the maid in helping Hannah.
"I will be back soon, but make sure that Hannah will give birth safely or i would not be able to forgive myself.'' The maids nodded with a look of a knight in their eyes who was going on a death mission.
Eli tapped the hands of the maid with a look of relief showing that she trusted her and then ran to see Andrw.
Andrew had placed Ethan on his bed and now was sitting beside him while waiting for Eli to come and explain her plan.
"Where is Lady Evangeline?" he asked the maid who was standing in front of the door.
"She is with lord Leo. The door of their room was closed since the moment you left, your highness." he added with a sigh.
Only God knows what is happening. All of them were getting injured and facing defeats while his father was winning again and again but how.
How could he win without any help? There must be someone who is helping him. But who?
He came out of his thoughts when he saw Eli coming with Renee.
"Eli! Why have you brought Renee here? She is a kid, what if she gets any kind of infection from our injuries." he frowned when she looked at the child with the guitar too.
She had promised Evangeline that she would not tell about it even to Andrw but here she was.. Trying to force the baby to cry!
She closed her eyes as she tried to hide her guilt.
"Andrw close the door, please." she did not reply to him but ordered him when he frowned but still followed her instructions and closed the door and clocked it.
"Now, promise me that whatever you see in this room will stay with you only and you would never try to take its benefit in the future.'' His face filled with bewilderment but her grim face was telling him she would not listen to anything else except acceptance, so he nodded his head when she stared at him for a few more seconds before taking her gaze finally away.
She took a deep breath as she took Renee and held her just like Evangeline had done with Leo and then pinched her cheeks hard.
Renee tried to get rid of her hands by shaking her head but when it did not work, the girl started to cry out loud. Tears started to fall from her eyes and before Andrw could frown and stop her, it fell on the wounds of Ethan and then….
