On the other side, Daniella chuckled, "I would but it will cause more damage and the last thing I want is to be in the prison."  

Evan ran his palm on her hair, "I won't let anything happen to you, Daniella. I shouldn't have yelled at you."  

The regret was strained in his voice, but Daniella contemplated that Ken was right, she can't let her emotion overpower her brain.  

She nodded and smiled at him, but inside she felt a fit of strange jealousy rising, wondering why did Evan stop her this time even though she had done it before with Selena.  

When Claire came, a worried look was on her face while Evan left the room by Daniella's request.  

--  

After putting the surgical gloves on, Claire sat on the space that Evan left while Daniella was sitting with her back leaning on the headrest.  

Taking Daniella's palm to remove the plaster, Claire scoffed, "how bad is your wound Ms. Jealous?" she said with a tease.  

Daniella's eyebrows creased in confusion, "I am not jealous Claire, I did that because she's Roman Lee's daughter."  

The cotton Claire was holding to clean Daniella's wound halted in the air, her lips slightly parted in shock let out a silent gasp.  

"That's Roman's daughter? Only daughter?"  

Daniella nodded, her head swung to look at the window and watched the clouds hover in the sky peacefully.  

"what are you doing Daniella? You have never lost it like this before," the confusion shone in Claire's eyes, her hands continued on cleaning Daniella's wound, "what is happening?"  

Daniella gulped hard, her eyes dropped on her hands and watched as Claire clean it.  

"Claire, I might change my plan."  

Claire rose a brow and met Daniella's eyes, "what is it now?"  

Daniella gulped hard, "I don't know yet," she shook her head, "I just, when I brought Evan to the island, I realized that I shouldn't waste my life on revenge. I mean," she blew out a harsh breathe, "I deserve to be happy right?"  

Her eyes rolled, "if there's such a thing as God, for sure he wants me to be happy too, right?"  

Claire's eyes gloom while her heart ached for Daniella. She could see how much Daniella was fighting to live, and now, she got the taste of peace her view suddenly changed.  

But this only made her worry even more, as she knew that Daniella was willing to give up everything to the wrong man.  

Daniella could read Claire's thoughts.  

Living in the house with the family that killed hers, it was indeed a mistake.  

"Is it wrong for me to be happy Claire?" Daniella asked. She can't no longer bear the thoughts she's reading in Claire's mind.  

"No, it's not Daniella, everyone deserves to be happy," she sighed and caressed Daniella's cheek, "but he's the wrong man."  

Daniella shook her head, bit her lips and tried to fight back her tears, "he loves me, Claire. He supports and protects me if he's the wrong man then who's the right for me? Why can't I be with him?" she gulped hard, blinked a few times causing her tears to drop.  


"I am not saying that you can't be with him Daniella, what I am saying is, you fell to the wrong man," she paused and pulled the remaining piece of shattered glass in her wound, "and living here is wrong. Camille, Evan, and Selena, those people's parents had caused you to be like this. Truth can be painful, I know that, but ask yourself, Daniella."  

Claire got up; cleaned up all the medical tools and neatly lined them up in her bag, "are you changing your plan for your sake? Or for his family?"  

Daniella blinked, Claire has been long gone but her voice stayed in her mind.  

When the door was opened and she saw Evan and Selena with a worried expression on their faces, she could not help but shut her eyes. 

--

Jenna's eyes were narrowing like a pair of eagle's eyes as she stared at Daniella's clothing.  

Never once she saw her in this state. Her hair was tied up in a neat bun while her contoured face and red lipstick had given her a compelling aura.  

With her black suits on and white polo under, Jenna could not help but raise a brow.  

"When we bought the Lumax, you were wearing a sweater with a hole on the side and a toe-length seventy years old skirt which you stole from the British royalty," she blinked as she blurted those words with sarcasm.  

Picking up the suitcase with documents about the Island Bank's Policy, Jenna scoffed, "what's changed, Daniella? I thought you would just blackmail the Island CEO until he agreed to you."  

Daniella accepted the suitcase with her eyes narrowed while a lopsided grin full of wickedness was plastered in her lips, "I want to be part of Evan's circle so, I will need to dress up good," and she gave Jenna a wink.  

"What's with the red lipstick? I thought you hated red."  

As they are about to leave Daniella's apartment, the woman halted by the door, her hand was on the doorknob, preparing to open it.  

"Jenna, men are like bulls. One of their weaknesses is women especially the one wearing a suit and red lipstick" she finally opened the door and stepped out of her apartment, "once I speak, he would be more focus on my lips and not my word."  

Jenna shrugged a shoulder in response to Daniella's overflowing confidence.  

--  

A car drove inside the basement of the Island Bank building and inside was Daniella and Jenna.  

Scott parked a few meters away from the basement elevator and opened the door for the two women at the backseat of the black SUV he was driving.  

"Do you need me up?" Scott asked.  

Daniella shook her head as she smoothed down her coat, "no, Scott stay here. They won't take me seriously if I bring a wrestler inside."  

Scott chuckled by Daniella's reply. He took the suitcase from the passenger seat and handed it to Jenna.  

When his knuckles brushed against Jenna's, Scott cleared his throat and avoided Daniella's eyes.  

"Are you two going to stand there holding the suitcase for the whole day?" Daniella blurted staring at Jenna and Scott's hand holding the suitcase at the same time.  

"I am sorry," Scott apologized and withdrew his hand.  

Jena shook her head; her lips formed an awkward smile.  

"No worries, it's nothing," she replied and followed Daniella who was walking towards the elevator.
