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
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
Daisy left Henry on Alexander's bed before she began pacing back and forth. Seeing how Daisy was behaving, Dahlia curiously asked with raised eyebrows, “Em, what are you doing, big sis? Are you alright?”. “Of course I'm not alright, Dahlia. Our Daddy is returning soon and it's already freaking me out. I thought I was prepared for his arrival, but I guess I thought wrong”. Daisy replied as she continued walking up and down. Dahlia stared at the kids and waited for a while to see whether Daisy would settle down, but since Daisy didn't settle down, she walked towards Daisy and stopped her before holding her on the shoulder. “Calm down, big sis. Our father would be more than happy to accept you back”. Dahlia assured Daisy. After taking a deep breath in, Daisy turned to face Dahlia and started panicking, “You won't understand, Dahlia. Daddy doesn't know or have any idea about what happened to me 6 years ago. I know I'm at fault because I told you not to tell him anything”. Daisy admit
As soon as Alexander and Jack arrived in their room, they took their laptops and began hacking immediately. It didn't take them that long and they accessed many CCTVs. “Now, let's find out what we can see with the CCTVs”. Alexander announced and was typing on his laptop's keyboard so fast and skillfully. In less than 5 minutes, Jack exclaimed, “Big bro, stop what you're doing, I found something!”. He showed Alexander his laptop afterwards. “That's Annabelle”. Alexander said as he collected Jack's laptop. Now, Alexander and Jack were patiently watching what was playing on the laptop's screen. Soon they discovered that Annabelle rented an apartment in-between. Meaning that her apartment was close to Lucius's condo and at the same time, close to Daisy's mansion.“What's going on, Alex? Why did Annabelle rent an apartment close to Lucius's condo and our mother's mansion? Plus, how come she rented a new apartment? Isn't she supposed to be living in Lucius's place?”. Jack was curious an
Daisy drove the Mercedes van steadily until they were caught up with traffic. The traffic lasted for about 9 minutes and when Daisy was about to drive off, she heard Dahlia's exclaiming voice. “Wait! Isn't that Asher and the twins over there?!”. Dahlia announced as she pointed her index finger at the window. “Eh?”. After hearing what Dahlia said, Alexander also stared at the direction and when his eyes met with Zeke and Zach, he speedily announced, “Momma, you have to pull over immediately”.Daisy was so stunned and surprised seeing Alexander this excited. I mean, if it were Jack and Henry that were this excited, she'd totally understand, but Alexander, that's just weird. “Alright, alright”. Daisy announced and pulled over immediately since Alexander was nagging her to do so immediately. Since the van was nicely parked off the road, everyone came down and confronted Asher, Zeke and Zach. “I know Asher…. But the twins, are they the smart twins you told me about the other day?”. Da
The kids, including Daisy, Dahlia and Asher were all having a blissful moment. Plus, Daisy and Dahlia rode the white horse countless times, though a supervisor was there with them to avoid any accidents.“Ha, what a really fun and stress-free day today”. Dahlia announced as she approached a corner that was filled with beautiful flowers. Soon, she sat down close to the flowers and was watching everyone have fun. Actually to be honest, she was already feeling tired. Dahlia brought out the bottle of water she bought, she opened the cover and was drinking the water when Asher came to her side. He sat beside her. “Want some?”. Dahlia asked Asher as she offered the bottle water to him.“Sure”. Asher collected the bottle water from Dahlia and drank all the water inside it in one go. The atmosphere between Dahlia and Asher was quiet, but not until Dahlia started a conversation with Asher, “So, today was fun, right?”. “Absolutely fun…. I've never seen the twins feel so alive before. To be
“Come here you brats, you three exposed Annabelle's secrets, right?”. Daisy confronted the kids and said to Alexander, Jack and Henry. Soon she remembered something and added, “Wait a minute, Alexander, was it why you told me not to worry the other day? And these evil deeds of Annabelle are the same evil deeds you refused to tell me and Dahlia the other day at the dining room, right?”.“Em, yeah, momma”. Alexander cleared his throat and replied to Daisy's question.“Gosh, you kids are really something else! In fact, the news about Annabelle is so surprising to me! Thank goodness you didn't tell me the secret the other day, if not, it won't be a surprise for me today”. Dahlia admitted. “I told you so, aunty Dahlia”. Alexander said and a slight smile appeared on his adorable face. “So, before you guys exposed Annabelle's secrets, did you do anything funny against her?”. Daisy questioned her kids and was staring at them with suspicious eyes. Hearing his mom's question, Alexander stare
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 as
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
