YM778.TV Chapter 137 Worried About Him
Day Thirteen…
~~*****~~
Veronica and Stephen searched for Nathan separately. The Royal Night Club was very crowded tonight. It was spacious so it would take time before they could search all the areas in the club.
When Stephen didn\'t see Nathan nearby, he proceeded to the men\'s comfort room on the second floor. That was the only place he hadn\'t searched yet on the second floor.
When Stephen reached the comfort room, he wondered why some men were just standing outside the door.
"What\'s wrong?" Stephen asked them.
"The door is locked, Dude!" One guy responded to Stephen\'s query.
"Let\'s go downstairs. There is another comfort room on the ground floor near the stage," another guy spoke up, suggesting to the group.
The four men decided to leave, walking past Stephen. He just stayed on the spot, looking at the closed door. He was contemplating whether to break the door or not. What if Nathan was inside?
After a while, Stephen used his phone to dial Veronica\'s number. She was able to answer him right away.
**[Phone Conversation between the Two]**
Stephen: "Veronica, where are you? Have you found Nathan?"
Veronica: "Not yet. I\'m searching for Nathan here on the ground floor."
Stephen: "Can you ask for the key to the men\'s comfort room from one of the waiters at the bar counter?"
Veronica: "Okay. Got it!
Stephen: "Come up here as soon as you get it."
Veronica: "Stop commanding me. I know what to do!"
Stephen: "..."
Stephen just chose to stay silent and hung up the phone. He didn\'t mean to order her around. It\'s just that they needed to find Nathan as soon as possible, otherwise, Abigail would refuse to go to the hospital without Nathan.
Stephen thought Abigail was only overthinking. He knew his best friend. He was strong and capable of fighting. He wouldn\'t be in trouble even without his bodyguards.
"Ah! I don\'t have time for this!" Stephen said as he charged towards the door. "Nathan?! Are you there?"
Stephen started calling Nathan from the other side of the door and he started kicking the door knob. He could no longer wait for the key.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Stephen kept hitting the door using his leg and elbow. A few minutes later, the doorknob finally gave up and got broken.
Stephen made one last strong push to open the door. And it flew open. The first thing that caught his eyes was Nathan\'s unconscious body, lying on the floor.
"NATHAN!" Stephen screamed and panicked as soon as he saw his best friend lying unconscious while bleeding.
\'What happened to him?! Who attacked him?\'
He sprinted forward, holding Nathan\'s body. He couldn\'t believe it. Abigail was right! Nathan was in danger. But how did she know that?!
He had no time to spare. Nathan was not responding to him. He searched for his injury. He tore a piece of his clothes to tie and cover Nathan\'s wound, stopping it from bleeding.
"Damn! He might die if he loses too much blood!"
Without further ado, Stephen carried Nathan\'s body and ran as fast as he could. Kathleen and Doreen were also on their way to the hospital together with Abigail.
"Fuck! Who did this to you? An enemy?" Stephen didn\'t stop cursing, worrying about his best friend.
Stephen passed through the crowd going out of the nightclub. Several pairs of eyes were looking at him. Among them was the person who stabbed Nathan with a poisoned knife.
Stephen bumped into Veronica who became pale the moment she saw Nathan\'s condition.
"He was stabbed! We have to bring him to the hospital now." Stephen declared.
Veronica just nodded her head and followed Stephen to the parking lot. He put Nathan in the back passenger in a rush. Veronica also stepped inside to hold Nathan. Stephen proceeded to the driver\'s seat. He started the car and sped off to the nearest hospital.
"Nathan… please don\'t die on me," Veronica mumbled with her trembling voice. She hugged Nathan\'s body.
"He is not going to die. He can\'t die!" Stephen said with so much conviction.

Twenty minutes later…
Abigail woke up and noticed that she was already in the hospital. Kathleen was sitting on her sickbed watching her over. Kathleen immediately pounced on her when she saw her awake.
"You scared me to death, Abi! Do you know that!" Kathleen was hugging Abigail tightly.
"I\'m fine now. Where is Nathan?" Abigail roamed her eyes around the ward, searching for Nathan.
Kathleen took a deep sigh before she let go of Abigail. There was a sullen look on her face as she recalled Stephen\'s words.
"Abi… you were right. Something bad happened to Nathan. He was attacked inside the men\'s comfort room. He was stabbed. He was being treated here as well. Fortunately, Stephen found him immediately, otherwise, he would have died."
Abigail didn\'t know how she would feel after hearing that. In fact, she was still clueless as to why she felt the same pain as Nathan. He was the one who got stabbed but she also experienced it without bleeding.
\'He can\'t die. He can\'t die just yet,\' Abigail thought to herself, clenching her fists. She wondered if this was also what Nathan felt when he saw her stabbing her own self in front of him. Both of them wanted to get revenge on each other.
But deep down, Abigail felt something aside from hatred. She was worried about Nathan… a real concern for her enemy. She shouldn\'t have to feel this way. She should be rejoicing because the devil was hurt! However, she couldn\'t find the joy in her heart.
"I want to see him," Abigail suddenly blurted out.
Kathleen understood how she felt so she just nodded her head, assisting Abigail to stand up. "Stephen and Veronica are there. I think Veronica might stop you from seeing Nathan."
Abigail\'s eyes were set ablaze. "She has no right to do that."
Kathleen let out a soft giggle. Abigail was right. Veronica had no right to stop Abigail from seeing Nathan.
"Alright! Let\'s go. Don\'t worry. Stephen and I will deal with her if she becomes stubborn."
