Dylan called Lucas as he ran down to the parking lot. Lucas finally picked up. “Sir, where are you? The board members and investors want to talk to you.” Lucas told him. “Lucas I need you to tell Luke to run interference with the board members and investors and then I need you and my security team to meet me at the hospital.” Dylan told Lucas. “The hospital? What's going on sir?” Lucas asked and you could hear that he was worried. “Anna just called, she said that Emma passed out and they are in the hospital. I'm driving there by myself I'll get there faster.” Dylan explained to Lucas. “Ok sir, I'll handle everything here and talk to Luke and then me and the security guards will meet you there.” Lucas said and the Dylan hung up the call. Dylan finally got to his car, it was his Aston Martin. He pressed the key fob, the doors unlocked and he went in and closed the door. He started the car and sped out of the parking lot and then he drove li
“Sorry did you just say cardiomyopathy?” Dylan asked the doctor again so that he would be sure. “Yes, Mr. Knight. I'm guessing she either got it from you or your wife.” The doctor told Dylan as his eyes looked from him to Anna. “Dylan isn't her biological father.” Anna told the doctor before Dylan could say anything. Looking at how distraught Anna was at that moment he decided not to say anything about that night and him being Emma's real father, now was not the right time. “Did you have this condition Mrs. Knight?” The doctor asked Anna. “No, I didn't, and I had no idea that Emma had it.” Anna explained to the doctor. She felt like a bad mother for not knowing that her daughter was sick. She also felt bad that her one-night stand with a stranger was the reason that Emma had this condition. “Well, none of that is your fault Mrs. Knight. They usually only screen for this condition in newborns only if they know that a parent has it.” The doctor exp
James was in his office, whistling and having a glass of bourbon. He was just waiting for the call from Lyon to tell him that he had taken Kings Enterprise from Dylan and then for Pandora to launch their drug, putting the final nail in Dylan Knight's coffin. He pressed his intercom. “Liam please come to my office.” A few minutes later, Lian walked into James's office. “You called for me sir?” Liam asked James. “Yes, Liam. I'd like you to draft a new proposal and send it to Mr. Knight, tell him that we won't be accepting his eighty-twenty deal, that we now want a fifty-fifty agreement, equal partners.” James instructed Liam and he had a huge smile on his face. “But sir, isn't that a little premature, he still has way more money than we do.” Liam explained to James. “Oh shut up, what do you know? Just do as I say. It's not like he's going to be CEO for long, once Lyon takes over he's going to give us everything we want. The man is an idiot and has
Both Dylan and Anna spent the night at the hospital with Emma despite Anna telling Dylan that he could go back to work, he insisted on staying. The next morning, the doctor came in to check on Emma and told them that she looked great and that they could go home, they just had to sign the discharge papers. He gave them Emma's prescription and told them the changes to make to her diet and then he left the room. “I'll go sign the discharge papers, help Emma get ready.” Dylan told Anna and then he left the hospital room and walked down to the nurses station where he was given the paperwork to sign and when he was done he handed it back to the nurse in charge. “That will be all Mr. Knight, an orderly will come with the wheelchair for your daughter.” The nurse informed him and he nodded his head and walked back to the room. He could easily carry Emma, but it was hospital policy so he didn't argue. “Are you ready to go home sweet girl?” Dylan asked Emma as
Anna woke up and when she looked out her window it was dark out, she immediately got up from her bed and opened the adjoining door that led to Emma's room but her daughter wasn't there. She checked her heart monitor on her phone and saw that everything was all right. She put on her slippers, left her room and ran down the stairs to find Emma. As she reached the bottom of the stairs she could hear her daughter's laughter coming from the dining. She walked in there and she found Dylan and Emma, sitting down on Emma's playmat. Emma was dressing Dylan up with her toys and stickers while Dylan tried to work on his laptop. Emma was the first to see Anna and then she ran to her mother. “Mummy, you're awake!” She screamed and Anna carried her up and held her against her chest, relieved that she was ok. “Yes sweet girl, what are you up to?” Emma asked her daughter as she wiggled her way out of Anna's arms and ran back to her playmat. “I'm playing dress
After Anna's embarrassment died down, they all sat down for dinner and Emma didn't complain about her food being different, she ate everything and then took her drugs like a champ. Both Dylan and Anna put her to bed and they made sure that her wristband was on and her baby monitor was on. “Well, goodnight.” Anna said as she turned to go to her room but Dylan stopped her. “Anastasia wait.” Dylan said as he held onto her hand. “Would you like to join me for a nightcap?” Dylan asked her, Anna knew that it wasn't a good idea, she became a blabbermouth when she had alcohol in her system. “Yeah, sure.” Anna said going against what her gut told her to do. Dylan let go of her hand and they both left Emma's room and walked downstairs towards the bar. Anna sat on one of the barstools while Dylan went behind the bar. “So what would you like?” Dylan asked Anna. “Surprise me.” Anna said to him and then Dylan started pouring and
After taking out his frustrations on Kendra, James felt a little bit better but he still had a problem to deal with. He left Kendra who was passed out on his bed. She had red welts on her back and on her butt from where James flogged her with his belt and his handprints were all over her body. James put on his clothes and walked down the hall to his home office. He sat down behind his desk, trying to come up with his next course of action, he had to do something, he couldn't let Dylan win. He logged on to the dark web and texted his guy. “About what we talked about, I need to move up the timeline.” James wrote and he waited for the guy to reply. “When?” The guy asked James. “Next week.” James told the guy. “Do you know the target location?” The guy asked. “London,” James replied him. “That's going to be tricky, but it can be done.” The guy told James. “I want to be there when it happens.” James typed out, he was ti
The next day, after having breakfast with Anna and Emma, Dylan went to work after he promised Emma that he would be home on time to have dinner and put her to bed. Anna was quiet throughout breakfast, Dylan didn't know if it was because she was hungover or because their conversation the previous night was heavy. So he didn't bother her or say anything about it. Dylan walked into his office and as usual, Lucas was there waiting for him. “Good morning Lucas.” Dylan greeted as he took his seat behind his desk. “Good morning sir. It’s good to finally have you back.” Lucas greeted back and then took his seat. “It's good to be back, so what's on the schedule for today?” Dylan asked. “As you instructed, you have a meeting with Hugh, Luke and Kingston in thirty minutes and then after that, it's your meeting with the investors and the board,” Lucas told Dylan. “Ok, thank you Lucas. What of the other thing that we talked about, have there been any developme
