Chapter 196 A coma

KEITH'S POV

"Jasmine—" I said her name horrified. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

I ran to her and knelt beside her immediately. Placing my hands on her shoulders I gently shook her. However, she didn't respond, she wasn't conscious. Her face and upper torso were covered in the strange powder like her bodyguards in the parking lot. Her phone, which was still on the call, lay in her lap. I couldn't see her breathing and began to fear the worst.

I brought my head to her chest and listened. After a moment a wave of relief came over me as I heard the slow steady beat of her heart. Then I felt the faint rising and falling of her chest. I put her phone in my trouser pocket removed my jacket and placed it over her body and then picked her up in my arms.

I made my way down the stairs carefully as I held her, trying not to drop her.

My men had called for the police and paramedics to come to this section of the parking lot.

"Please help my wife," I told them, and handed her over to them.

They put Jasmine on a stretcher and began attending to her injuries. The other three bodyguards were also attended to by the paramedics.

As the two paramedics worked on Jasmine, I paced around them nervously.

After a few minutes of watching one of the two turned to me.

"What's wrong with her?" I asked them.

"We don't know we'll have to take her to the hospital where the doctors will have a closer examination of her," he told me. "The only positive thing is that she is responsive despite being unconscious. Her injuries aren't fatal, her ankle is twisted and she seems to have a small concussion given her head feels a little swollen."

I recalled the way she was lying down on the floor with her back against the wall. The position was a little awkward unless she'd fallen and hit the wall and floor.

We suspect whatever this white powder everyone has, sone kind of poison is the reason why they are unconscious." another paramedic answered.

I looked at the bodyguards who were also being attended to. None of them was dead. I thought about Diana's plan.

They put Jasmine in one of the ambulances and I went inside with her. I told my men to follow us to the hospital behind the vehicle.

I held Jasmine's hand along the ride as I stared at her, hoping she would be alright. I contemplated the events of the day. Honestly, I had to make Diana answer for all this once I returned to the estate. She was being watched by my men until I returned. I'm just glad her plan to kill Jasmine had fallen through.

I then felt a vibration in my trouser pocket. I looked down and reached, my hand into it. I found it was Jasmine's phone that I had pocketed earlier ringing. Checking it, I read the name written for the caller and saw 'Louis' with a heart emoji next to it.
