Feeling the approaching death, Lucian felt his entire body turning cold, a strange sensation filled his body as if it was about to swallow him whole.
His skin tingled and felt hot while his mind was about to go blank and he felt as if sothing was about to explode out of his body.
But just then Lucian felt a gust of wind hitting his body which brought him back to senses, from just the sweet scent in the air he knew who it was, Jasmine stood in front of him and had stopped the bullet with her bare hand.
Her fist was right in front of Lucian's chest, and she had stopped the bullet just a few centitres away from his body, then she retracted her hand and looked at the bullet, it was glowing with a bright red light.
Without a mont's hesitation, Jasmine threw the bullet out of the window into the sky as her hand beca a blur.
*BOOOOOOOOOM*
The sound of the bullet exploding ca out in the next instant, even with his Fire of Corruption Lucian still would have been severely injured if the bullet exploded this close to him that is after he managed to survive from the bullet itself.
Jasmine's gaze moved directly towards the building from where the bullet was fired, even from so far away she could see a figure clearly, that person panicked when the assassination attempt beca a failure and saw Jasmine standing there.
In the next instant, Jasmine's body disappeared from inside the room and she appeared so distance away from that building.
Her expression and gaze were both cold, Jasmine was feeling a different type of emotions that made her feel strangely enraged.
Before that person could move away from the Terrance of the building, Jasmine snapped her fingers.
For a mont it seed as if everything had beco silent and had frozen but then a large explosion swallowed the entire building as it shook the land and flew high into the sky.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
If most of the energy had not travelled towards the sky then everything within a range of a few kiloters would probably have been evaporated into nothingness, a big cloud of fire ford in the sky that could be visible from far away.
As the fire began to disappear, there was nothing left.
The entire building had completely disappeared along with the assassin, Lucian just stared at this in surprise, that must not have even been her full power and yet it shook all the buildings around and the land.
Jasmine returned towards their room and as she got closer, Lucian noticed that instead of floating in the air it seed as if she was stepping on the air itself, then she landed on the floor and looked at him.
" Are you okay? " She asked, Lucian glanced towards the place where the assassin and a building once existed, now there was not a sign of anything not even the explosion as if nothing had happened.
" Yes I am fine, but shouldn't you have tried to capture that assassin, we could have gotten so information about the person who wants to kill . " Lucian asked, his heart was still thumping wildly, he was this close to death just now.
" I know which organisation it is, so even if we had captured that assassin we wouldn't have been able to get anything.
Anyway, you need to stay close to until we find out who have sent that assassin, there could be danger anywhere. " Jasmine replied, after thinking for a mont Lucian questioned:
" But there weren't anyone else in that building right? "
" Yes aside from the assassin there wasn't anyone else... probably. " She answered.
' I can see why she was at the top of that hated people list. ' Lucian thought, then he closed the window and sat on the bed, Jasmine began to make so calls to find out who had tried to kill him.
" What kind of organization is it? " Lucian asked after a while, she sat down on the chair and replied:
" It's an organisation thar kills people in exchange for money, it's filled with strong assassins who are great in the art of killing.
It's almost impossible to track them and even if soone gets caught they won't open their mouth mouth no matter what. " She said.
" Oh, they are so loyal to the organization that they won't tell any of its secrets even if they are getting tortured? Even the weaker assassins? " Lucian asked, this group seed quite good.
" Yes, the biggest reason for that is because they don't really know anything, they just recieves the mission and after completion they get the money.
I had captured a couple of weaker assassins before, they didn't even had tongues and were completely unable to speak, while the strong ones, they are hard to catch alive. " Jasmine spoke while typing sothing in her mobile.
' What's that organization called? 'Lucian asked in his mind.
[ It is called 'The Pendulum'. Those people stand with no one, and there are so assassins who are quite strong making it a dangerous organization. ]
' But who could have sent that assassin to kill ? Wait- it wasn't Jasmine, right? What if she saw sothing strange online again and tried it? ' Lucian wondered as he glanced towards his beautiful wife.
[ I doubt she would put you in any kind of danger, anyway it is soone else who had sent that assassin. ]
' Could it be that person who was trying to impress Jasmine and I threw my cup of coffee on him, what was his na again? Dan or sothing. ' he wondered.
[ No that is also not the person who was behind this attack. ]
' Haa just tell then, stop making riddles I don't even know how many people are my enemies just for the sole reason that I exist. ' Lucian sighed, wondering who could have hated him enough to try to get him killed in such a way.
[ It was Xero, he had been earning money for quite so ti and recently he even took several big loans from banks and local gangs, then he used all that money to hire an assassin from 'The Pendulum' to kill you.
It seems he hates you quite a lot, he even paid extra so that after your death, not a single part of your body would be left intact, that's why that assassin used the bomb.
But they made a mistake, they weren't aware that today Jasmine had not gone out, if she was not here, they would have most likely succeeded with the assassination. ]
Lucian was quite surprised to hear all that, he knew Xero hated him from the bottom of his heart, but Lucian didn't expect that he would really hire an assassin to kill him, while spending so much money.
' So it was that son of a bloody gun, I guess I was going too easy on him, now he is going to feel hell on Earth. ' Lucian thought as a frown appeared on his face, but he was quite curious about The Pendulum.
******
Unaware of everything that had happened with Lucian, Natasha had decided to go out and pay a visit to that female doctor nad Amy, and talk to her about Lucian's condition.
She had booked a cab, soon she arrived at the hospital, and went inside directly.
As Natasha walked inside the hospital she saw several patients waiting to see Amy, few of them were won and most were old n.
So Natasha decided to wait for so ti since it was nothing urgent like when she ca here last ti, it seed Amy was actually a good doctor since there are always so many patients waiting to get treated by her.
Inside the cabin, Amy sat on her chair hitting the table in front of her with the stethoscope, then she sighed and mumbled:
" Are people too healthy nowadays? Why are there so few patients, haa and again there isn't anyone hot. I can feel my dream shattering within these four walls with each passing day. "
" What are you talking about? There are so many patients waiting outside, so can I start sending them in.
Also that dream of your is a cri, you just want to take advantage of so handso guy by drugging him, don't you? "
Amy's assistant spoke, she was in her fifties and had been working for Amy for quite so ti.
" Most of these patients are the people I hired to sit here since those old n have nothing better to do anyway, sigh at this rate I am going to be broke. "
Amy sighed loudly then she glanced towards the patients waiting outside, suddenly her eyes widened and she sat up straight.
" What's wrong? Is soone coming to check this cabin or sothing? " The assistant asked.
" COUGH Go out and send that woman inside, I need to talk to her urgently. " Amy spoke as she pointed towards Natasha, the assistant looked out and after nodding she walked out.
" You can enter. " The assistant spoke to Natasha.
" ? But there are other patients waiting here even before . " Natasha asked but the assistant just told her to go et Amy.
So she stood up and walked into the room, Amy was seated there with a straight posture and a serious expression on her face.
" Please take a seat. " Amy spoke and pointed towards the chair in front of her, Natasha sat down and spoke:
" I am- "
" You are Lucian's mother right? " Amy spoke, as she interrupted Natasha in the middle.
