The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess
chapter-156

A room was gently lit with lamps all around removing the darkness of night.

In the middle of the room stood a desk on which piles of papers lay.

Yvonne was taking a sip of coffee while reviewing the documents.

Due to the meeting, she had been quite busy and had to even work at night to finish things early.

As she skidded her eyes through the document, her eyes suddenly trembled and her expression turned awful.

Her hands trembled and the cup fell from her hand.

"Ahh!!" A painful groan escaped from her lips and she clutched her chest and her breathing haggard…

"What happened?" Yvonne murmured with a pained expression while her eyes opened wide with disbelief.

"Lady Yvonne!"

"Lady Yvonne!"

The servants ran towards her seeing something wrong with her.

"Call the doctor."

"Something happened to Lady Yvonne!" The butler shouted and ordered the servants.

"No, don't call the doctor," Yvonne spoke while gritting her teeth to suppress the pain.

"But Lady.."

"I said stop. Leave me alone and everyone gets out of here." Yvonne shouted and ordered everyone to leave.

The servants tried to persuade her but it was futile.

Everyone with slight hesitation finally left the place

Yvonne gritted her teeth while trying to figure out the situation.

"Is that fool injured badly or something ?"

"No, his injury shouldn't cause any damage nor transmit the pain," Yvonne muttered while her eyes suddenly lit up.

She remembered what the so-called Priest said when the other party feels extreme emotion, it may transmit to the partners.

But transmission will only be between husband and wife. The girl's intense emotions wouldn't be transmitted.

This means something must have happened to Alex.

She could experience unending sorrow and emptiness and the fear of losing something precious.

"Why the hell am I feeling pain due to emotion?"Yvonne muttered.

"Alex are you all alright?" Yvonne said her eyes started to swell with tears.

She had already sent some experts to keep things on the tab but she also ordered them to act only on things out of hand.

....

Inside an old broken down Church.

On a small bed, Athena slept peacefully.

Her eyelash fluttered and her peaceful expression started to change as if she was having a nightmare.

She was drenched in sweat and she started to become restless with her breathing hastened.

"Alex!!" She shouted and woke up from her sleep.

Breathing heavily she woke up from her sleep with a feeling of restlessness.

She had a bad dream where Alex was injured and his body was riddled with injury and then someone fired a shot at him but before seeing anything further and what happened to Alex she woke up.

Her forehead was filled with beads of sweat. As she heaved in relief thinking that this was all just a dream, a frown appeared on her face.

She felt a deep pain in her heart and her heart started to tighten.

"Don't tell me this isn't a nightmare, "Athena spoke while placing her hand on her chest.

Her heart was beating quite fast and she was having an ominous feeling.

Moreover, she could feel the emotion Alex was going through recently.

" I have to make a trip to Yvonne to find out what happened, "Athena spoke and stood up from her bed.

With a flick of her hand, the night dress disappeared and her body was covered in a white saint gown and a long golden staff appeared in her hand.

Her body started to exude a holy light followed by rhymes of holiness giving her a sense of Majesty.

Her expression turned cold as he remembered Alex's wounded figure.

With a single step, her figure disappeared instantly.

....

As the dust disappeared, Alex looked at the huge crevice with a dazed and hollow expression.

An intense sadness overwhelmed his senses.

The shock and feeling of despair made him disconnect from reality.

Anxiety and guilt overtook him and clouded his mind.

He started to curse himself for being hasty.

"No, this can't be, "Alex shouted while his throat trembled a bit.

Although Riya tried to calm him, his heart was a mess

"Christina!!"Alex shouted and stood up and ran towards the rift with staggering steps.

"Please be alright.." Alex prayed in his heart and begged the Goddess for Christina's safety.

As he got closer to the rift, he saw a dishevelled figure who lay among the pieces of debris and rubble.

Alex saw Riya seated down beside Christina.

Alex jumped into the rift which was four metres deep and landed beside Christina.

She saw Riya checking her.

"Riya, is she alright?" Alex asked with a panicked expression.

Alex looked at the Christina figure, the armour had been blown away by the impact leaving behind only the pieces of undergarments.

There was a sharp rock stuck in her shoulder which had formed a hole.

There was a deep burn on her face and gut and her face was as pale as a sheet of paper while blood trickled down from her forehead.

"Healing!" Alex shouted but he stopped in his motion as he remembered that he can't use a healing spell now.

And after the forbidden spell wears off, he would be paralysed for a few days.

"Riya, what should I do?"

"Should we leave and look for treatment?"

"Christina's condition is not good. She is losing too much blood." Alex spoke with teary eyes.

"We need to look for a healer or doctor but the other city is too far away."

Riya bit her lips and said"Alex, the fastest way to save her lies there."

Alex looked at Riya who pointed at the capital of Amidon where there might be healers and who knows there might even be healing potions.

Alex's eyeball widened seeing The City Walls.

As he was lost in thoughts, he felt a soft touch on his cheek and looked down to see Christina caressing her cheek while staring at Alex's panicked expression.

"Alex!!"

Alex heard his name with a tone as gentle as the wind over the grass in spring.
