The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective - Volume 2: Their Paths Cross Again Chapter 448 448: Brother Lu Returned

~ One Day Before the Mission ~

The special room in Dr. Clara’s Private Clinic had been arranged and organized. Today was the day, Lu was returning from the States.

Everyone including Dr. Clara and Phantom was looking forward to his arrival. Spike had already returned two days before and he informed James that Dr. Argus permitted to transport Lu back to City Z.

Dr. Argus would personally manage the transfer of Lu. He also decided to stay in City Z to monitor Lu’s condition. He would work together with Dr. Clara. They would help Lu in his rehabilitation and therapy.

Phantom’s henchmen also returned to City just to see their Brother Lu. It’s been a long time that they had not seen him. They were heartbroken when they thought Lu also died two years ago.

As being his brothers, they were so proud of him. He was the youngest among them and he was the one who saved their Lady Boss. Even if he had to sacrifice himself, he didn’t hesitate to do it. He was a hero for them, worthy of their admiration.

Elle and Erick accompanied James to the airport. Dr. Argus and his team used Arison’s private plane during their travel going back to City Z.

At exactly 7:00 am, Arison’s Private Plane landed at the airport of City Z. The private ambulance was also there waiting for the patient and the medical staff who were assisting the patient.

Lu was being moved using the stretcher. He was still wearing an oxygen mask because sometimes he had difficulty breathing but he was already awake and could talk to anyone.

Elle immediately dashed towards his direction when she saw Dr. Argus and some medical staff who was pushing Lu’s stretcher going to the ambulance.

Elle hugged Dr. Argus quickly when she greeted him. Dr. Argus also returned her hug. He was glad that Elle was doing better now. She was looking good compared to the last time he saw her.

Then Elle immediately got inside the ambulance to accompany Lu. Erick and James just gave her private time with Lu. So they didn’t join her inside the ambulance. They just rode their cars as they followed the ambulance behind.

Inside the ambulance, Lu had noticed Elle’s presence. He wanted to sit up but Elle held him down and signaled him to stay put. Elle grabbed his right arm as she looked at him with relief. Her eyes also became misty.

“Brother Lu, welcome back. I’m so glad to see you back. Thank you so much for not giving up. Thank you so much for staying alive. Thank you so much for everything. I owe you my life. I will not be able to forgive myself if something bad happens to you. I’m really sorry. I truly am. Because of me, you suffered too much.” Elle said, feeling emotional right now.

Lu removed his oxygen mask using his left hand. He could move his arms but still, he couldn’t stand and walk just like before. After removing his mask, he reached out to touch Elle’s face.

“Don’t cry and don’t be sad anymore, Lady Boss. It’s not your fault. I am willing to sacrifice my life just to save you. It’s my will. You don’t have to thank me nor feel sorry. I am happy that I was able to save you. You don’t owe me anything.” Lu responded to her with his weak voice.

“Just call me, sister. You’re my brother. I am not your boss.” Elle said, her grip on his hand tightened.

As expected, Lu’s face reddened from shyness and embarrassment when he heard that. He was touched and at the same time felt blissful. His heart swooned because of that simple remarks from his Lady Boss.

“Father and our brothers are all waiting for you. They missed you so much. We missed you so much.” Elle said to him, gentleness flashing in her dark eyes.

Lu’s lips curled up into a bright smile. This was one of his best assets. He was the jolliest person among their brothers. His vibrant attitude could affect everyone else. This was what they missed most when Lu was not around. He was the one who could easily lighten the mood of his brothers.

“I didn’t notice that two years had passed already. In my memories, I felt like everything just happened yesterday. When I was in a coma, I could always see you, Master Phantom, and my brothers. In my dreams, we are living happily together. All of you became my strength.”

When Lu said that, Elle could no longer hold her tears. Her tears just dropped one after another like rainfalls. She was glad that in those moments, Lu could still see them. Lu was not alone. They were with him in his mind and his heart.

“Lady Boss I mean sister please don’t cry. Did I say something wrong that made you sad?” Brother Lu asked her in his panicked voice. He didn’t want to see her cry. This was the first time he saw her cry like this. He felt alarmed as he didn’t know what to do.

Lu used his left hand to wipe her tears but it kept on falling down her cheeks. “Sister, please don’t cry.” He begged desperately.

Elle giggled while she was crying. She couldn’t help it. Maybe the pregnancy hormone also caused her to be so emotional like this.

“I’m not sad. I’m just so happy that you are back. These are tears of joy because you came back to us, safe and sound.”

After saying that, Elle reached out to caress Lu’s face. She couldn’t describe the joy she was feeling right now. She leaned over to hug Lu’s frail body.

When Elle hugged Lu, his face became scarlet red. He was blushing too much.

‘Eh, I think I’m going to faint. My idol sister is hugging me now like this. I feel like I won a jackpot today.’ Lu thought to himself while savoring the moment. He felt the love and care of Elle.
