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

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, “

    “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

    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.

    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

    “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”.

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?
