The next day-

Simon walked into Pete’s detention room. Pete continued to ignore him and laid staring at the ceiling. He had figured that he was still in captivity and the interlude yesterday might have been due to drugs.

Simon was not bothered by his arrogance and sat down in a leisurely manner.

“Don’t think I have anything more to tell, do you? Don’t tell me that you think I will tell you something with a clear head, something I didn’t say when I was drugged? Pete sneered with disdain.

“Heh! Don’t give yourself so much credit. Trash like you isn’t worth my breath” Simon ridiculed.

“Then, why are you here?” Pete twisted his lips.

“Doing a favor for a friend who promised to fulfill a dying man’s request.” Simon took out a bundle of pages and placed them on the table. He was not in a hurry to leave. He wanted to see how much of a scum the man in front of him was.

The security stopped her for screening with a detached attitude.“Why is the security so tight? Isn’t it just another charity event?” Amber asked with a puzzled look. She was a regular at these events and had never been stopped before.“The special events for tonight are by Glam girls and Monroe boys. There’s also a few VIP’s who are attending tonight. We just can’t have any gatecrashers” One of the council members explained politely.“Oh...” Amber paused before asking in a gossipy tone “Any names I know?”“Who do you not know, Ms. Witherby?” Council member Lesley flattered with a smile.“True …true” Amber responded complac

She’s not worthy’ Amber’s mind churned with jealousy.“Should find her PR person… they have done a fantastic job with her coverage” Amber had a complacent smile.“PR?? I don’t think so, half the people here didn’t know who she is” Peter disagreed. He was a young lawyer seated at Amber’s table. Everyone here was well connected, so the person walking up to the stage had to be low key if she was unknown to most.“What? Charmed by a pretty face? Amber asked smugly.Peter gl

Do you mind being bare footed” Ben did not answer directly instead asked her another question.“No problem” Dana walked with Ben to the corner and removed her shoes.

Both Dana and Sarah were oblivious to this interaction.Ed’s phone interrupted the discussion.“Hello”“Um… both places?”“Um”“Pink lady is fine. We will head out there.”“No. Just the lady.”“Lose it first!”Ed hung up while the others were anxiously staring at him. They could only hear Ed’s end of the conversation.Ed informed the rest that it was Archer on the other end. There were tails following the team both at the place where Ms. Parker was resting and where the scoundrels were being detained. Archer called as he thought that it was better to keep Dana’s association with them low-key. Especially now that he knew that Ben was interested in Dana. He had also informed Ed, that they put an army drill as a façade for this exercise.“My men will bring Ms. Parker to the Pink Lady, and you can meet her there.”Dana frowned.“Do you want to see the scoundrels? If so, let’s just go. I will take

He lowered his head and raised his eyebrows playfully “Where are you running off to? Didn’t you just ask her how she was going to get out of here?”“Oh” Dana had forgotten this detail.“And we still need to get back to the dinner.” Ben knew Dana was hungry.“But Eleanor…” Dana looked at Ben with a difficult expression.“Don’t worry. Archer will take her back to a safe house.” Ben comforted gently.Ed looked at Frank with raised eyebrows ‘Is this our Ben?’Frank rolled

    Ben knew Dana spent her weekends at Peach Blossom apartment. So, he let Shadow drive as Dana sat in a daze, nestled in his embrace. Ben didn’t want her to wake up from the daze, so he kept quiet until they reached the apartment.“We are here.” Ben spoke in a gentle low tone. Dana stared at him in confusion. ‘What was she doing?’Ben let out a low chuckle “Don’t want to let go?”Dana blinked, she realized how ambiguous their posture was and pushed him away. But Ben still held on to her. She looked at him with a pleading gaze “Please let go. I am sorry…I overstepped the boundary…” She wasn’t sure why she sat comfortably in his embrace. She knew she shouldn’t …“I enjoyed it” Ben chuckled but then added in a serious tone “Stay away from Maine. He doesn’t want to be just friends.”Dana was about to retort that it was none of his business when she heard the last part and changed her words “I know. I am not a three year who believes in coincidences.”“What?” Ben caught the hint of the latte

They didn’t have time to process everything before they were handed the little bundle.“She is so sweet.” Megan smiled as looked over Marjorie shoulders.“My daughter-in-law is indeed pretty.” Dana laughed. She knew the minds of the elders were not calm. She was trying to lighten their moods.No one knew when Ben, Frank and Shadow appeared behind their women.“How can it be so easy to snatch my granddaughter?” Marjorie retorted proudly.“Yes…. yes…yes...” Abigail laughed happily as she let the little one hold her finger tightly.

Dana had rested well and regained most of her vigor.Ben was changing nappies while Dana was sleeping peacefully when they arrived.“She can still sleep?” Dana’s younger sister asked in surprise as Ben gestured for them to lower their volume. He handed one baby each to the stunned Mr and Mrs Williams and led all of them to the adjacent room.“Sorry… Dana has just rested.” Ben apologized sincerely for his rudeness.Mrs Williams shook head, her eyes were misty. She was truly grateful to the heavens for her daughter’s fortune to have met such a man. Even though he was rich and powerful, he loved and doted on her without bounds…. This was truly her fortune. It would be a lie to say that they were not worried. On the way back after the wedding they had met a lady who was crying pitifully.

    Ben sat next to Dana urging her to wake up. He was scared out of his wits as he had seen the amount of blood that she lost during the delivery… he feared that she wouldn’t wake up and all his happiness would disappear in the blink of an eye even though Steve repeatedly reassured him that she was fine and just sleeping from exhaustion. He sat next to her telling her how much he missed her.He told her how he felt that a portion of him was missing without her by his side; He told her how much he loved her…. He begged her to wake up… He sat by her side never taking his eyes of her pale face… holding her hand … and begging her to wake up….He started to tell her their story from his perspective. He told her how she disturbed him from their first encounter. How he thought that she had approached him with a purpose, He told her how he shamelessly wanted to see her even if he knew that she had approached him with a purpose.He told her how he used to follow her like a shadow just to feel her

    Ben was on edge now that Dana was full term. He kept following her nervously like a shadow. One evening just as they finished dinner and were heading upstairs to retire, Dana stood still on the stairs and called weakly “Ben….”“What is it?” Ben looked affectionately at his wife who had stopped walking and became stiff.“I…. my …. I think my water broke.” Dana barely managed to mumble as she held on tightly to Ben.“You…. you….” Ben froze.Alexa was the first to react. She ran downstairs to alert Shadow and Mrs Bentley before running back upstairs to get the baby bag that Dana had prepared beforehand.“CEO” Alexa called out helplessly as she saw a frozen Ben.“Huh?” Ben looked at the panic-stricken Dana and came to his senses. He carried her and ran downstairs carefully. Alexa informed him that Shadow was waiting downstairs with the car. Shadow had informed Steve as soon as Alexa came running downstairs. Everything at the hospital would be set by Steve.Shadow sped towards the hospital;

    Shadow had been getting along fabulously with Ruth and decided that he wanted to get married watching Ben’s bliss. He had decided on Ruth, then what was the point in delaying… but the problem was he had no idea how to…. he was also worried if Ruth didn’t have the same intention… then wouldn’t he be making a fool of himself?Shadow walked around with a constipated expression. He would have asked Dana’s help if his boss wasn’t so petty…. But what could he do… his boss was!“What’s wrong?” Dana finally asked as she couldn’t bear to watch his miserable face.“I …” Shadow suddenly felt tongue tied. He was waiting for Dana to ask…. But when she did, he didn’t know how to vocalize his problem. He lowered his head with a frown on his lips.“He wants to propose to Ruth but doesn’t know how to.” Ben didn’t give Shadow any face when he mercilessly pierced through his wall.“Oh….” Dana nodded perceptively “You are worried that she doesn’t have that intention and she will reject?”Shadow nodded alt

However, she changed her mind when she got to Ruth’s shop and pulled the others and ran. Granger was at the store pestering Ruth. It was most certainly a crime to stop someone’s fortune and she didn’t want her husband to have another enemy…..hehe…hehe… she was quite clever!“What are you laughing like a fool for?” Lara asked looking at Dana’s silly smile.Dana shrugged keeping her silly smile but didn’t enlighten the two.“Sister-in-law...” A sweet sound called from behind as the ladies were immersed in their world of freedom.The three turned in unison but Dana’s face darkened as she saw Lizzie walking towards her smiling like a flower.
