Jake was handcuffed to the bed since he wasn't stable yet and his injuries weren't healed at all.

"Dad, what is this?!" Jake continued to rant as he yanked against the cuff, "What is this?!!"

You're lucky you're unfit, I'd have dragged you across the streets, given you a befitting beating and see to it that you have a nice time in jail." he smirked "You could have always filed for a divorce rather than abuse your wife.

    Hailey showed equal surprise. But more than that she was happy and grateful. She had little hope of seeing Diana and also her grandchildren. As she came and stood in front of her, Diana had no idea what to do. She wondered whether to apologize. She didn't know what to expect because during her stay at the mansion, her and Hailey were close enough to pass for mother and daughter. Since she has been away for few months it was only natural to jump into her mother's arms and hug her tightly.Edward kissed her forehead and whispered, "It's the surprise" and then he left them. After a moment of silence, Diana parted her lips and spoke with her head lowered, "I..I don't know if I still have the privilege to call you mother." she lifted her head with tears in her eyes.
