Good Girl Gone Bad: Queen Of The Underworld

[Jin Medical Group]

Liam rushed right away at the floor where their VVIP clients admitted. Entering a certain room, his expression was indescribable.

Fear.

Anxiety.

Panic.

Those feelings are the only ones that Liam was sure of -- his profound sweating and trembling hands prove that. When his gaze landed on the person lying unconsciously on the bed, his heart sank miserably.

There, Sebastian Yue's pale face and the slow heart rate that echoing across the spacious hospital room made his whole being froze.

The call he receives moments ago is about this. His first thought was to tell Seraphina about her grandfather's condition, alas, the man on the phone told him to not tell her. If he was right, it was probably one of Seraphina's original bodyguard named Ace.

Inside the room, aside from Sebastian Yue's bodyguards, his father, Logan Jin, and his grandfather, Edgar Jin was both present. When they saw Liam entering alone, both Logan and Edgar called out in a solemn manner.

"Son…"

"Grandson.."

Edgar Jin with his blanch hair wearing a formal suit perched at the chair on Sebastian Yue's bedside, while Logan Jin was standing behind him. Both of their figures were dignified and noble. However, the worried expression on their face was evident. One could tell that they regard Sebastian Yue as an important person for personally rushing over.

"Where's Seraphina? Did you tell her?" Logan inquired with his stern voice. When Liam heard his father's inquiring tone, he was snapped back to reality.

"I didn't, father. What happened to Chairman Yue?" Liam closed the door before respectfully bowing as a greeting before questioning about the condition of his beloved.

"Chairman Yue… he was suffering cancer and dementia. But now, his other organs are also failing." Logan's short and precise explanation was like a heavy rock that weighs down Liam's heart and soul.

He was in a daze for a while. In his profession, he met a lot of wealthy family with the same case as having a disease. But now, it's different. The patient is Sebastian Yue -- Seraphina's grandfather. Also, the fact that his condition is worse than he thought made him feel pathetic.

"So that is why…" Liam mumbled. He had a hunch before whenever he meets Sebastian Yue that something is wrong with him.

At first glance, he thought that it was a sign of aging. However, the more he spends those short meals with Sebastian Yue, Liam's hunch grew bigger.

[Short Flashback]

The Yue Family mansion with its usual quietness and tranquility -- Liam entered Sebastian Yue's study room.

"Chairman…" Liam greeted while politely bowing.

"Young Jin! I'm glad you came! I hope you don't mind the abrupt invitation" Sebastian Yue heartily receive him.

"Chairman Yue, It's an honor." Liam with his ever gentle voice answered politely.

They both sat down at the study's room sofas. After the aromatic tea was served, Sebastian Yue cut to the chase, he spoke.

"Young Jin, Seffy seems she's really fond of you." When Liam heard this statement, he was somewhat shy. After all, it came from the person who he needed his blessing about his courtship towards Seraphina. Even though he already approved, he still d_e_s_i_r_es Sebastian Yue's full acceptance.

"Chairman, I like Sera a lot. I know I've been engaged to someone else and might not deserve Seraphina but… I still want to try." Liam sincerity moves Sebastian Yue in an instant. Of course, Sebastian Yue knew about that matter because it's also one of the reasons why he was hesitant at first.

"Young Jin, your sincerity is all I need. It doesn't matter of who she likes, as long as she doesn't get hurt -- I don't have a say. The reason why I invited you over is I entrust Seraphina to you. She might be a little silly at times… but that child, my poor Sera -- she's been through a lot. If you can accept her flaws, then I will happily give her hand to you."  Sebastian Yue's elderly voice has a swirl of emotion. It was as if he was stating his last wishes.

Liam kept his silence for a while as he absorbs the old man yue's words. Alas, his response regards other matter.

"Chairman, I hope you don't mind, but I'm a doctor. May I asked about your health?" Liam turned serious when he asked the question that he always wants to inquire.

"HAHA! You are indeed Ed's grandson. I'm alright. I am in the last years of my life but I'm not yet dying… I'm just worried that I won't get to witness my Seffy getting married." Sebastian Yue heartily dodge Liam's suspicion.

"Don't worry about your father or Ed. They won't interfere." Sebastian Yue reassured him.
