Dylan and the other guys walked down to the hall downstairs where the event was taking place. They were backstage but Dylan looked out and saw that the place was packed with newsmen, journalists, bloggers and also the members of the board and the investors. Everyone was there. Plus the event was being broadcast live.

“It's a full house, good job Luke.” Dylan praised him.

“Ladies and gentlemen please welcome the CEO of Kings Enterprise, Mr. Dylan Knight.” The MC announced and then Dylan came out from backstage and walked on to the main stage.

He had already been fitted with a mic. “Thank you, ladies and gentlemen and the press for being here today. I know you all have questions about what happened three days ago and I'll be putting all those questions to rest today. Let me start by answering the most common questions that have been out there.”

“Yes the lab was burnt down but luckily there were no deaths. There were injuries but Kings Enterprise take

    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.

    “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.

    EPILOGUE. SEVEN MONTHS LATER. A lot had happened in the past seven months since Dylan ran to the airport to stop Anna from leaving. Now, it wasn't smooth sailing between them; they both put in the work by going to therapy and working on their relationship, and they were good now, only choosing to go to therapy twice a month. Dylan stuck to his word, and he was the best husband; the night they came back home, he told her everything about her life, from the moment he was taken away to London, he told her everything, not leaving out any detail. He had also waited on her, hand and foot, since he found out she was pregnant, not letting her do any strenuous activities; he was the perfect husband and father. In those seven months, something else also took place, the cases were tried in court and her father and Mr. Smith were both sentenced for murder and Mr. Smith was first murder and attempted murder. Her father was sentenced to thirty years and Mr. Smith was

    Anna and Emma arrived at the airport about forty minutes later, they didn't have much, just two suitcases, one for Anna and one for Emma. Anna paid the driver, and she and Emma got out of the car. She held Emma's hand and used her other hand to wheel in the suitcases. They were about an hour early for their flight. They walked into the airport, and she checked in her bags, and their tickets were scanned. The attendant told her that they would announce when the flight started to board. Anna thanked her, and then she and Emma walked over to some chairs to sit down. Emma had been quiet throughout the journey, and Anna knew it was because she missed her dad; she hated that she was feeling that way; it was all her fault. She was the one that brought Dylan into their lives. “Hey, sweetie, do you want to watch some cartoons on my phone while we wait?” Anna asked Emma. “Sure, I guess.” Emma said as she shrugged. Anna put on Bluey for her and gave Emma t

    After Anna was discharged, she spent two days on bed rest by order of Caroline; she didn't complain, though; it gave her enough time to think of her next plan. Just like she thought, Dylan had not come to look for her, and she didn't blame him; in the end, they weren't meant to be together; there were too many secrets and lies between them, but it still didn't change the fact that she loved him. Emma has been asking for him constantly, and Anna has had to lie that he was away on a business trip, but she knew that lie wouldn't last forever. So she had to plan, she knew one thing for sure, and that was she couldn't stay in New York, and if she was settling down in another place, it couldn't be London. So after two days of planning she decided that she and Emma would move to Australia, there was a hotel there that had been trying to poach her for months, so she called them and asked if the job was still available, they said yes and she accepted it. The job came with a

    Anna blinked her eyes open and she was hit with a blinding light that she had to close her eyes and groan in pain. “Anna, are you awake?” She heard Caroline ask. She opened her eyes slowly so she could get used to the light, and when they were fully opened, she saw Caroline standing by her side. “Oh, thank God you're awake; you gave me quite a scare, Anna. I'll be right back, let me go and get the nurse.” Caroline said and then she left the hospital room. Anna was confused. How did she get here? The last thing she remembered was watching the press conference with Caroline and Emma was sleeping. Emma? Where is Emma? Anna frantically sat up on her bed as he looked around the room but there was no sign of Emma. Caroline walked back into the room with a nurse. “Welcome back Mrs. Knight.” The nurse said. “Caroline, where's Emma?” Anna asked, her voice was scratchy because her throat was dry. “They have a daycare here; I didn't think that you'd wan

    After Dylan saw Anna's car drive off, every atom in his body wanted to go after her but he couldn't. He had to attend the press conference and he wasn't worried because Marcus was with her. Fucking Kate, it was like she planned it or something. He had to come in through the back and go up to his office because everyone thought that he was dead and then a few minutes after he walked into his office, Kate walked in. Her eyes were red and it was clear that she had been crying. When she saw him she hugged him so tight saying that she knew he wasn't dead, Dylan asked her why she was in his office and she said she was there to beg for her life and that Dylan should spare her, she confessed that she was working with James but only to get him away from Anna and they she had nothing to do with the plane crash. Dylan wasn't shocked to hear that she was working with James; I mean, it would explain the pictures they were sent to Anna; someone had to take them. While s

    “Let's go to the living room so I'll be able to keep an eye on Emma.” Anna told Caroline. “Why do you need to keep an eye on Emma? Anna, what's going on?” Caroline asked again. “I'll tell you everything, let's just go sit down.” Anna told her and then they both went into the living room and sat on the couch facing the TV and opposite where Emma was sleeping so Anna was able to keep an eye on her. “You better start explaining yourself, Anastasia George, or is it Knight now?” Caroline asked her. Anna released a huge breath and then she proceeded to tell Caroline everything. How she met Dylan at the hotel, how she got into a contract marriage with him and in exchange, he agreed to protect her from James and bring him down. How they went to London, Emma's kidnapping, and her heart condition. She told her how they slowly but surely fell in love and admitted their feelings to each other. How everything was so good and then it all went so bad, from the th

    Anna ran as fast as she could, she could hear Dylan call out her name behind her but she didn't stop to look back. It was all too much, he had lied to her about everything. She got into the elevator and frantically tapped on the button for the down floor. She could see Dylan getting closer, but the doors closed just in time. She wasn't free just yet, and she knew it; she wouldn't be until she got as far away from Dylan Knight as possible. The elevator doors opened, and she stepped out; she knew Dylan wasn't far behind, probably opting to use the stairs. She ran out of the lobby. She knew she was drawing attention to herself, but she didn't care. She stepped outside, and thankfully, Marcus listened to her and the car was still parked outside the office. She ran to the car and opened the door. “Drive Marcus now.” Anna told him with urgency. “What's going on Mrs. Knight?” Marcus asked her. “Just drive Marcus.” Anna told him as she looked back at t

    Anna slowly brought out the folder that had her name on it. She opened it up and on the first page was her basic information, her name, date of birth, house address, place of work, things like that and then she flipped to the second page and she saw her pictures, pictures from when she was picking Emma up from school, going to work and coming back from work. Did Dylan have her followed? She continued flipping through the pages, and she could see that this folder was like a dossier on her life; everything about her was in that file: her marriage to James and her parents. Anna didn't understand why Dylan had this. It was when she flipped to the next page that her heart dropped to her stomach. They were pictures, and she recognised the place, it was the club, and she was more sure of it because, at the top of that page, it was written in block letters: ANNA SIX YEARS AGO. She looked at the pictures, and the more she flipped through them, the memories from that night

    By the time Dylan was done with his call and he went up to their bedroom, Anna was asleep. His talking to her would have to wait till tomorrow, but he had to do it before the arrests were made because once they were made public, she would surely put two and two together. Especially since Lucas informed him that she wanted to find him, something happened when she went to see her parents, that had to be the only reason why she wanted to find him urgently. But what could've happened? Could she have found out the truth? No, that couldn't be it, whatever it was, he would ask her about it tomorrow morning after he told her the truth, that's if she was still talking to him after. He took off his shirt and trousers, left only his briefs on and then he got into bed with Anna and wrapped his arms around her, even in her sleep, Anna turned around, seeking his warmth. ************ The next day, Dylan woke up expecting to have Anna by his side, but when he opened his eyes
