บท 7: Wake Up
The door to the recovery room opened. Halona stepped inside the room and stopped three steps away from Edmund's bed. He just shifted from operation theatre to recovery room. All sorts of medical equipment like cardiac monitor, pulse oximeter etc. are attached to him to monitor his condition.
Halona stared at Edmund blankly for a few seconds. He is the first man she touched in her whole life of 19 years, other than her father. With a heavy sigh she started to speak, " Mr. ... Oh! I don't know your name ".
She paused thinking how to refer him. Suddenly a thought flashed and then she said, " It's okay.. I'll give you a name. Huh! Mr. Paris... how is that?". She chuckled at the name she given to him.
" Mr. Paris... I hope you'll recover fast, Good bye... Mr. Paris. I'm leaving to my country and I think we can't meet again. " Halona then turned around and left.
In the meantime Linda made preparations for their return to Dalia. Their private jet is ready to fly anytime they want. Halona and Lilly drove the black Mercedes back to the hotel with Sarah and Susan escorting them. Linda and Jessica stayed back, waiting for Edmund's assistant, Henry Joe to arrive.

After two days...
At Hospital Hotel - Dieu AP - HP...
In a VIP room, on his hospital bed, Edmund finally opened his eyes.
His eyes fluttered, adjusting to the soft light, which is infiltrating through the large glass window. He felt weak and disoriented.
The vast room with white and sky-blue coloured theme is unaccustomed to him. He tilted his head and saw a large glass window, a couch beneath it, a blue chair near his bed and a wooden door few meters away. He thought, " where am I? It's not the hotel room I stayed ". He tried to remember what happened....
He felt a sharp pain in his head. lnstinctively he raised his hand to touch his head, then he saw the machines that are connected to him. He realized that, he is in the hospital. Slowly he remembered the events that were happened before the accident...
He remembered, he went to a hotel called Le V - Hotel Vernet. He supposed to meet a client there to finalise an important deal at 7 PM. After he successfully securing the deal and completing the dinner, he headed back to the hotel with his assistant Henry Joe.
On the way, he received a call from his friend.
" Hello, James..."
" Hey buddy, you're in Paris and you didn't meet me. "
" Oh! I am busy with _____ ", James interrupted.
" Every time you will be busy with something. I don't want to hear your excuses. Come to 'Le Bar du Bristol'. I'll be there in 30 minutes. "
Without hearing the reply from Edmund, James hung up the phone. Edmund shakes his head helplessly. He instruct to Henry to leave first and he will comeback after a while.
After Henry left, he drove his car to one of the famous bars called Le Bar du Bristol. Where James is waiting for him. They chatted about few things while drinking. Both didn't drink much because they have to drive back.
After a while, he checked his watch and saw that it's almost 11PM. So he decided to go back. Both said their farewells and decided to meet next time before they parted.
He was on his way back to hotel. He was thinking about his sister. He promised to pick her up from shopping and spent some time with her, but he had to cancel that because of his sudden meeting with James. She must be angry...
While immersed in his thoughts, he didn't notice the truck that suddenly came out of nowhere. When he realized, it's already too late....
