Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1088 Never Abandon Her

They still didn't mess with Serena, just in case.

"Get them in the car first," Amelia ordered.

"Yes, ma'am." The bodyguards shoved Serena into the SUV.

The car sped away from the airport, heading who knows where.

Mia, unconscious, started to vomit all over a bodyguard.

Annoyed, he pushed her away, took off his jacket, and tossed it out the window before cleaning himself up.

Serena immediately held Mia, gently patting her back. "Mia, it's okay. I'm here."

Mia had been given sleeping pills twice and had already thrown up on the plane. Her stomach was empty, and now she was just vomiting water.

Her face was deathly pale, lips purple, and her whole body was cold, like she'd just come out of a freezer. Her breathing was getting weaker.

"We need to go to the hospital now." Serena grabbed Amelia, crying. "Please, take Mia to the hospital first."

"Get off me." Amelia shook her hand off impatiently.

"If anything happens to Mia, you'll lose your bargaining chip," Serena pleaded. "She needs to be healthy and alive for you to have any leverage. Please, take her to the hospital; she's not going to make it." "Are you nuts?" Amelia scoffed. "It's just some sleeping pills. She'll be fine after she wakes up and eats something."

"No, she really..."

"Enough!" Amelia shouted angrily. "Throw her out of the car."

The bodyguard immediately grabbed Mia, ready to toss Serena out.

"No!" Serena clung to the seatback, crying out in desperation. "Please, let me stay. At least I can help take care of Mia. If I die, she'll be a burden to you."

"So annoying." Amelia lifted her foot, ready to kick Serena out.

Just then, Mia woke up and started crying loudly.

Amelia paused, and the bodyguards all winced from the noise.

Serena quickly held Mia, comforting her, "Mia, don't be afraid. I'm here. I'll protect you."

"Serena, I want Mommy!" Mia cried, gasping for breath.

"Stop crying!" Amelia shouted.

Mia cried even louder, and Amelia was at a loss.

A bodyguard reached out to hit Mia, but Amelia immediately stopped him. "What are you doing? Don't touch her!"

The bodyguard withdrew his hand.

"She's my hostage. If anything happens to her, we're all dead," Amelia yelled. "No one touches her!"

"Yes, ma'am." The bodyguards didn't dare move.

"Make her stop crying," Amelia said, shoving a bag of food at Serena. "If you can calm her down, I'll spare your life. Otherwise, you're dead."

"Got it," Serena said, wiping Mia's tears and whispering in her ear. "Mia, be good. Stop crying, or you'll get a fever. If you get a fever, you won't see Sadie. We need to save our strength and wait for Sadie to rescue us, okay?" Mia's pale little face buried in Serena's arms, trembling with fear, but she stopped crying and only sobbed quietly.

"Good girl. Let's drink some water." Serena found a bottle of water and gave it to Mia.

Mia took a sip, then leaned weakly in Serena's arms, her voice hoarse. "Serena, I'm scared."

"Don't be afraid. I'll protect you." Serena wiped the cold sweat from Mia's forehead, tears streaming down her face. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."

Amelia watched this scene, and for some reason, her gaze softened.

She turned her head to look out the window, reflecting on her life. Besides her mother, Lori Ramirez, it seemed no one had ever been so devoted to her. Never.
