Daisy's car drove inside the parking lot of her company, and as soon as she came down from the car, she was welcomed by Sasha who had been waiting there for her."Good morning, Chairman Daisy. Hope you slept well today?". Sasha greeted as she confronted Daisy. She wanted to help Daisy carry her stuff but she was surprised to see that the only item in Daisy's possession at the moment was her cell phone. Daisy noticed how overexcited Sasha was, so she curiously asked her, "Why the happy face?". "Oh. Chairman Daisy, I'm just so happy about the new project that's to be launched today. Plus, something unexpected occurred this morning!". Sasha announced and Daisy raised her eyebrows at her as she was expecting to hear Sasha finish what she was saying. "Our Company has been invited for the worldwide award giving contest this morning!". Sasha added and giggled. She was so excited. "Hmm. The worldwide award giving contest? I already expected that". Daisy simply said as if it wasn't a big de
"I got you!". Dahlia exclaimed as she finally caught James after a long minute of chasing him. Dahlia ran her fingers roughly through James' arranged hair, causing his hair to become rough. James struggled to break free from Dahlia because how she held him tightly on his neck was pretty uncomfortable. Since James wasn't able to break free from Dahlia's hold, he began to explain immediately to her, "Chairman, I mean, lady Dahlia. Don't you know what the award giving contest means? This happens only once in 10 years. It's a miracle that our Company was even invited to participate!". "Just participating in this award giving contest will make your Company known nationwide!". "Huh? Why didn't you explain since?". Dahlia muttered as she finally released James from her hold. "You didn't give me the opportunity to". James complained as he was arranging his messy black hair. Dahlia suddenly recalled something and said, "Wait a minute here. The award giving contest? I know that. Only the Ch
The shopping mall, Annabelle was sitting at the expensive white cushion, while Clara was standing beside her, almost close to her. As usual, Annabelle was ordering the boutique's workers around like a horse to her heart's content. In Annabelle's hand was a platinum black and gold card that Lucius gifted to her after they got married. Ever since then, she'd been making use of it for her own personal necessities."Give me that, that, and that''. Annabelle ordered and in an instant, the workers rushed to get the clothes Annabelle pointed at. Annabelle turned to stare at Clara and was annoyed to see her standing idle. "Hey, I don't pay you to do nothing. Go and take those bags my designer clothes are in and stand with them". She ordered. "Yes, Madam". Clara replied and did exactly as Annabelle ordered her to do. "That's much better now". Annabelle muttered as she was glad to see Clara standing and holding in her both hands each, three bags that were filled with clothes. Annabelle coll
Starlight restaurant, on the second floor of the building. The chairs were set three per table, while some others were set four and two per table. Many individuals, including married couples were busy having a normal meal and discussion. Plus, the second floor was more spacious and had fewer customers compared to the first floor.Daisy and Damien were both seated on their various seats. The meals were served but not among them were eating, instead, they were seriously staring at themselves with their hidden thoughts. "You should know why I refused to stay at the VIP lounge and chose this second floor instead". Daisy suddenly broke the silence between her and Damien as she said to him.Damien let out a light chuckle, though he didn't reply to what Daisy said since he was fully conscious of the reason why Daisy refused to stay at the VIP lounge with him when he brought it up. He wasn't a fool, so he was aware that Daisy refused to stay at the VIP lounge upstairs with him all because sh
Daisy went to Dahlia's Company and was lucky enough to see Dahlia and her kids at the parking lot, ready to return back to the Mansion. "Mommy!". As usual, Henry spotted Daisy first and called out before running to give her a hug. "My adorable son. Muah, muah, muah". Daisy said and carried Henry up. She spun him a little and then left him to stand on his feet before giving him three kisses, one on his head and the others on his forehead. Alexander and Jack also went to their Mom to greet her. Dahlia followed them too."Mom, is anything the problem? It looks as if something is bothering you". Alexander suddenly asked, causing Daisy to be stunned. 'I made sure that my face doesn't look gloomy. Just how did this kid find out?'. Daisy thought to herself and then smiled at Alexander as she patted his head. "Don't worry Alex (Short form of Alexander). You're indeed right, something was bothering me, but I've taken care of it". Daisy assured him before facing Dahlia, she added, "I'll like
A week later,Six days had passed and it was the seventh day. Daisy came to the award giving contest camp with her kids and Dahlia. As they all came down from the car, Henry was in awe of the camp area.[Visualise this description readers: The contest camp field was so spacious and had different activity's equipment in it. Plus, the three large buildings in it were so luxurious like that of a presidential suite; The camp even had gardens that were filled with different flowers and different species of fruits. Among the three buildings, one was a duplex that had an upstairs, and the other buildings were mansions that were located not that far from the duplex]"Mommy, mommy. Is this the camp? It's so pretty that I don't even wish to return to our own mansion". Henry immediately said as he continued to admire everything his eyes met with. Daisy squatted on one knee and pinched Henry's cheek lightly. "You brat. Don't let me have a change of mind, because if I do, I'll not only leave here
The living room,The nine participants, that includes Daisy, Dahlia, Damien and Lucius, were all inside the duplex house and were sitting comfortably on the sofas available for use in the living room. "Okay, who's going to be the one to talk first? The atmosphere is boring and not what I expected". Darcia aka Diana, suddenly said something, breaking the quietness. "I'm called Diana, and sitting beside me is my hubby, Jayden. He's the Alpha….". "Dear….". Diana immediately stopped talking the instant she noticed the error she almost made now, and also after hearing Jayden's voice call her. 'Am I dumb?! I almost told these ordinary humans that my husband is an Alpha King!'. Diana quarrelled inside her mind. "In that case, nice to meet you guys. I'm Anya and sitting beside me is my husband, Lucian. And that one over there is my brother, Asher". Anya introduced and held in her laughter. She so badly wanted to laugh out at Lucian because of how he kept his facial expression in a tough an
It took a while but somehow and finally, Damien and Lucius stopped glaring at themselves and entered the bedroom where Asher was. Asher was sitting on the bed and was operating his cell phone. When his eyes met with both Lucius and Damien who came in, he kept his cell phone aside and began with his thoughts, 'I see, the Uncle and nephew feud is settled for the meantime. So now that the feud is resolved, what are we going to do about the bed issues? Because as I can see, it's only two beds, meaning that two people have to share one bed'. "I'm sure you guys already know what I'm thinking of. Two of us have to share one bed. But I bet it'd only be for today because tomorrow, the rules of the contest would finally be announced". Asher suddenly said as he stared at the two large beds, including the one he was sitting on. "Hmph". Damien scoffed out before he said, "It wasn't enough that we have to share a room, and now this? Sharing a bed? Not until I get to the bed first". Damien stated
The other city of California, It was just a few hour ride and Asher returned to their hometown with Zeke and Zach. Asher parked his car inside Lucian's mansion before they all got down. 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
