“Di- vorce…. Divorce?”. Annabelle repeated and was totally lost and confused. She didn't even know what to feel at the moment. “Why, Lucius? Is it because of Daisy you want to divorce me!?”. She asked all of a sudden as she couldn't hold in her resentment towards Daisy.

“I simply don't have feelings for you, Annabelle. I kept on wondering why I accepted you as my wife six years ago, and now, I've come to realise that I only accepted you back because of the pity I had for you”. Lucius simply explained.

“Bu- but, six years ago in your office, didn't you tell Daisy I have your love? Why are you lying to me now, Lucius?”. Annabelle softly said and confronted Lucius.

Now, she was standing just a step away from Lucius.

“I was confused back then, Annabelle. And that's all you have to know”. Lucius said coldly before he remembered the reason he came to this mansion. “How dare you send thugs to attack Daisy? What gives you the right to do that?!”. He asked Annabelle with threatening eye

    All throughout yesterday, Annabelle couldn't rest or sleep well. She woke up early this morning and her eyes were covered with dark circles. “I have to avoid Levi Rodriguez in the meantime. Maybe later, I'll find an excuse to tell him so that he won't have any grudge against me”. In a whispering voice, Annabelle said to herself and rose up from her bed. ‘Ring’.Annabelle was in the middle of yawning when her phone beeped twice. “A message?”. She asked herself before picking up her cell phone from the bed. Immediately Annabelle unlocked her cell phone and read the message she just received from an unknown source, she freaked out and mistakenly threw her cell phone on the floor. “What's the meaning of that message?”. Annabelle said to herself and was biting her fingernails because of how nervous she was feeling. To be sure that what she read was not just an illusion, Annabelle picked back her cell phone from the ground and re-read the unknown source message, but this time around,

    “Move out of the way before I hit you with my car”. Dahlia beeped her car's horn as she threatened Levi Rodriguez who didn't budge. Daisy was patiently waiting for Dahlia to drive out so she could drive out too, but when she noticed that something was wrong somewhere, she said to Alexander, Jack and Henry, “Kids, stay put in the car, I'll be right back”. After saying this, she came down from her car. Daisy went to Dahlia's car which was only a few feets ahead of her, and when she was about to ask Dahlia what was going on, that was when Levi confronted her. “Levi? You're still here?. Didn't you leave yesterday already?”. Daisy's hands were placed on her waist as she asked Levi who was in a mess. “I couldn't just leave when I haven't yet explained myself to you, Daisy. You see, I had my reasons for sending that thug to you. To be honest, it was not my intention at all for the bearded thug to hurt you! I only sent the bearded thug to frighten you under Lucius's name because I wanted

    “Why haven't they replied to my message?”. Annabelle bit her fingers even more as she questioned herself. To be fair, she's waited for more than 30 minutes already, so she was feeling so unsettled and threatened. It didn't take Annabelle long, and she found herself composing a new message. But the problem was, when she sent the new message, it didn't go through. In fact, immediately she sent the message to the unknown source, all her messages, including the ones the unknown source sent to her, all got wiped away. “No!!!”. Annabelle screamed out loudly and was so frustrated to see that all her message was now gone.“They won't go out telling my secrets now, right?”. She questioned herself as she tried her best to remain positive. Annabelle tried her best to remain calm, but it wasn't helping her at all. In fact, the more she tries to remain calm, that's when she becomes more frustrated at everything. “I promise, I won't let anyone spill out my secrets! I won't let Lucius know that

    With no clues to finding the punks behind the unknown source message, Annabelle had only one option left. She scrolled through her blocked contacts list, and after finding the number she needed to call, a smile appeared on her face. Annabelle tried calling the number with the caller ID— deadly burger. After two times of calling the number and no answer, Annabelle tried calling the number for the last time, and to her surprise, the person finally answered the call. “Hello, I'm Annabelle”. Annabelle simply said to the person as she didn't want to beat around the bush. “Unless you're calling to hire me for a job, don't call my line again”. The guy rudely said and was already about to hang up the call when he heard what Annabelle said to him.“40 thousand dollars. I'm going to pay you 40 thousand dollars, I just need you to do something important for me”. Annabelle announced. “I'm listening”. “Someone threatened me because they found out about my secrets. I want you to find them fo

    ‘What are they doing here!?’. Daisy frowned her face as she thought. She saw that Lucius, Damien and Levi were glaring at themselves with dark faces, and from the looks of it, she was also certain that they hadn't noticed her presence. “What are they….”. Alexander couldn't finish what he was going to say because of his mom. “Shhh. Don't make any noise, kids. We're quietly going to go to my car and enter it without any of them knowing”. Daisy announced in a whispering voice before she took the kids with her to her car. When they arrived by the car side, Daisy opened the back door and made sure Alexander, Jack and Henry entered and sat in the seats. Soon, Daisy also entered the car and sat in the driver's seat before she immediately drove off. Damien, Lucius and Levi all stopped glaring at themselves when they saw Daisy's car drive past them. “You see what you both caused? I wanted to meet with lady Daisy, but now you've blown my chance”. Damien said before placing his palm o

    Annabelle sneakily left the mansion with a bag in her hand. The black bag contained 50 thousand dollars in it. As soon as she entered her car, she drove off speedily. It took about 25 minutes and a few seconds for her to arrive at her destination, and when she arrived, she parked her car somewhere and came down from the driver's seat.Staring at the old abandoned building in front of her, Annabelle sighed deeply before she made her way in. “He-llo”. Annabelle stuttered as she called out. To be honest, immediately she walked into the building, it caused a frightening sensation in her chest. “Hellooo?”. Annabelle called out again, and this time around, she tried to be brave and shake off all her anxiety. “I see you're here”. The deep husky voice caused the hairs on Annabelle's skin to stand up immediately. She instantly turned behind her out of fear, and what her eyes saw wasn't just a guy, but two guys. “Yo- you…. I mean, are you two— Deadly burger?”. Annabelle curiously asked a

    Lucius couldn't believe that he had been living with such a horrible person like Annabelle. He glared at her with hatred and soon ruffled his hair roughly. “We're getting divorced, Annabelle. I want you out of my life as soon as possible!”. Lucius announced remorselessly. Hearing Lucius's words, Annabelle was so nervous and scared. She finally looked Lucius in the face, and immediately, she grabbed his trouser as she pleaded, “You can't do this to me, Lucius. Remember the time you loved me! Remember the time we dated and the love we felt for each other! Remember the time you chose me over Daisy!”. Meanwhile, Lucius shook his leg that Annabelle was holding onto. “Don't touch me with those filthy hands of yours. And like I said before, it wasn't love I felt for you, Annabelle. I only pitied you”. Lucius announced with a dark face and added, “I'll send lawyer Atlas to serve you the divorce papers tomorrow. Make sure you're prepared by then! And after you sign the papers, leave my man

    Daisy's mansion,Daisy woke up from sleep with a really bright face. Actually, she was excited because she doesn't have to go to her company today since she decided to rest and spend quality time together with her kids. Daisy took her bath, and after bathing, she put on her ash hoodie sweatsuit and decided to go to her kids’ room. Jack woke up from sleep because of the low noises he was hearing. He yawned and rubbed his eyes with his palms before he asked, “Big brother Alex, what are you doing?”. “It's time for phase two. I want to send another threat message to Annabelle”. Alexander answered Jack, and when Jack got to his bed, he allowed Jack to see what he was doing. “So you're going to send another threat message to Annabelle?”. “Yeah…. I thought I just said that? You repeated what I said, Jack”. Alexander said to Jack who was by his side. “Oh…. Just carry on with what you're doing. Don't mind me at all”. Jack announced and curiously watched Alexander execute the phase two pl

Zeke and Zach ran into the massive building which was in front of them. “Mom, we're back! Lily, Emily, Dad!”. Zach excitedly yelled out as soon as he entered the mansion. Anya was inside the kitchen when she heard Zach's voice. She immediately stopped what she was doing and went to the living room to meet him. Upon arriving inside the living room, Anya said to Zach, “Calm down, son. Reduce your voice. Your father and sisters, including me, we're all around in the mansion. Actually, your father is in his study room with Lily and Emily”. “Mom!”. Zach excitedly exclaimed and ran to hug Anya tightly. Zeke saw the way Zach behaved and slightly shook his head at him. ‘Tsk, Zach is still behaving like a baby’. Zeke thought to himself. Later on, he simply waved his hand at Anya. “You bra

    Almost throughout the day, Daisy and Dahlia were busy because they were finalising the contracts for their companies’ cooperation. Daisy's office, “All done. Dahlia, you've finally signed all the contracts. Now, my company would be able to invest in your company”. Daisy announced with a smile. Meanwhile, Dahlia was so over the moon. She didn't exactly know how to react. Dahlia suddenly said to Daisy, “It's already 4pm, big sis. Which day are we preparing to go to China?”. “What are you talking about?”. “I mean, this morning, didn't you say we'd all travel to China to meet our mother?”. Dahlia raised an eyebrow as she reminded Daisy about what happened earlier in the morning. “I know that, Dahlia. I was only kidding. Anyway, we're going to the airport exactly by 7pm. Our flight to China is tonight”. Daisy suddenly announced, causing Dahlia to be super stunned. Dahlia's mouth was opened for a while before she eventually said some words, “That fast? You've already bought our t

    “So that's it, my dear. Your Mom is currently in China. She's currently admitted to one of the best treatment centres over there”. “It's been 20 years already since she was in a coma”. Diego added and his face was filled with worries. “I can't believe this. My mom is still alive. It's– it's really unbelievable!”. Daisy muttered, and the tears she held back started gushing out again. “I'm so sorry for not telling you sooner, daughter. But my point is, forgive Lucius about what he'd done to you, so that you won't live in regret like me”. “Father, I've wholeheartedly forgiven Lucius. But, I don't think I'll get back with him”. Daisy replied sincerely to her father. Diego and Daisy spend many more minutes outside before they return inside the mansion. Diego went to his room, same with Daisy. As soon as Daisy entered her room, she went to her bed and laid on it. Different thoughts were playing inside her head, so she couldn't sleep, at least, not yet. After thinking for a while

    The kids arrived inside their bedroom and immediately informed Zeke and Zach about what was going on. Unfortunately, Alexander, Jack and Henry, received a heartbreaking response from Zeke and Zach. Zeke and Zach informed them that they were also going to return to their hometown by tomorrow. “What are we going to do now, big brother Alex?”. Henry asked, as he was reluctant to return back to Las Vegas. “I- I don't know”. Alexander honestly replied, and said nothing afterwards. The time was running fast, and it was nighttime. Everyone ate dinner with dull faces. In fact, no one was happy. After dinner, Dahlia took all the plates to the kitchen, as she wanted to wash them all. Upon arriving in the kitchen, Dahlia began washing the plate like a robot. Meaning, her emotions were off and on. Dahlia was still doing the dishes when Teresa came to meet her. “Seriously? Is no one really going to say anything about this? Don't tell me you really want Daisy to return back to Las Vegas

    Louis was silently staring at his unconscious son, but deep inside his heart, he was feeling great stinging pain. Meanwhile, Cassandra continued to cry as she pleaded with Lucius to wake up. Seeing what was happening, Damien felt even more guilty within himself. He confronted Louis and apologised, “I'm sorry, big brother”. After saying this, he left the ward. Actually, many hours ago, after Damien had brought Lucius to the hospital, he called Louis and informed him about what had happened to his son. Speaking of which, as soon as Damien came outside Lucius's ward, he saw Daisy– who looked as if she was thinking. She didn't leave yet, instead she squatted by the opposite wall– which was facing the door to Lucius's ward. In no time, Damien copied Daisy and also squatted beside her. “Are you alright? You know it's not your fault”. Damien suddenly broke the silence and said to Daisy. Daisy didn't say anything yet, as she was still at a loss for words. “To be fair, befor

    Teresa and Dahlia arrived in the kitchen and immediately, they began making breakfast. Since Teresa was injured, Dahlia allowed her to do an easy task, which was– making the tea. Meanwhile, Dahlia handled making the toast breads and scrambled eggs. It didn't take 20 minutes, and they finished making breakfast for everyone, except Andrew. Andrew was already journeying to Las Vegas with the 7 strikers and Annabelle, so there wasn't any need to prepare breakfast for him. “Alright, I'll leave everything to you”. Teresa said to Dahlia after making the tea. She put all the cups of tea in the empty tray pan, after which she carried the tray pan to the dining room. The dining room, Now all the food was on the dining table. Everyone gathered in the dining room, and sat in the chairs– which surrounded the large dining table. After taking a bite from her toasted bread, Dahlia finally realised that the kids hadn't arrived in the dining room. “Big sis, where's Alex, Jack and Henry? Aren't

    “What?!”. Diego exclaimed after listening to the whole story. Actually, Dahlia explained to Teresa and Diego about what happened. Plus, Alexander, Jack and Henry were also in the living room, so they heard the whole story as well. “Yes father. Lucius got in the way and took the bullet for Daisy”. Dahlia said one more time, before her eyebrows furrowed. Seeing the way his daughter's face was frowning, Diego got worried, and so he asked her, “What is it, Dahlia?”. “It's just that, I'm angry. I know that if Lucius didn't protect Daisy, it would have been her who got shot. But…. If Lucius survives the injury, I don't want him to think Daisy would get back together with him!”. Dahlia didn't waste any time and spoke her mind. “You silly child. Don't think about that now. We should all hope that nothing would happen to Lucius, even though he was once a jerk”. Diego calmly said, causing Dahlia to nod her head at him. The time was now 2am, and Daisy hadn't returned. Andrew tried his b

    Daisy stepped backwards in panic after seeing Lucius who was unconscious on the floor. Without doubt, she knew that he took the bullet hit for her. “Why?!”. Daisy yelled out with reddened eyes. While Daisy was busy lamenting, Dahlia and Andrew finally arrived outside. Dahlia also saw Lucius who was bleeding heavily, so she stuttered when she asked, “Wh-at happened to him?”. No one replied to Dahlia. The same striker pointed his gun against Daisy again, and when he was about to pull the trigger, Damien rushed and knocked him out immediately– just like how the other 6 strikers were also knocked out. After Damien dealt with the striker, he rushed to Lucius' side. “Hey, little nephew. Open your eyes for me”. Damien calmly said, and when Lucius didn't react or move, he panicked and painfully cried out, “Open your damn eyes, little nephew! Stop playing tricks with me!”. Dahlia was still lost about what was happening, so she confronted Daisy and stood in her front, before asking, “

    Lucius decided to call Damien, but he hesitated at first. He couldn't bring himself to call Damien because– he knew Damien opposed him getting back with Daisy. Lucius already made his decision to defend Daisy and his kids alone, but feeling that it was a very risky job for only him– he punched his wall, as he didn't have any other choice, but to call Damien. Lucius sighed deeply before dialling and calling Damien's number. Upon calling Damien's number, Lucius wanted to hang the call and change his mind, but to his great surprise, Damien answered the call almost immediately. “Uncle Damien”. Lucius swallowed the invisible lump in his throat as he called out calmly. “What is it, little nephew?”. After hearing Damien's voice question him, Lucius began explaining everything that happened– to him. A second after explaining, Lucius heard Damien say, “Wait for me at your condo. I'll come pick you up and we'll go to Daisy's mansion together!”. “Sure”. Lucius replied and soon after, hung
