And that was it, Roman Lee rushed out of the study and ran towards the dining.
He halted by the dining-room door; one hand rested on the wall while the other clutched his pounding chest.
"Did you drink wine? Where is Camille?" he asked horrified.
Everyone turned to look at him with confusion on their faces, "What wine?" his wife asked, then she pointed a finger at the ceiling, "Camille went upstairs to get something."
From behind, a familiar scent appeared, "I was bluffing Dr. Lee, but you see, you have a family and that's your disadvantage."
"What's happening here?" Elise rose from her chair with an angry face, she could see the face of Roman paling as if someone was scaring him.
"Nothing Elise," Daniella casually answered.
"Robert, come with me" she waved a hand in the air to get Robert's attention.
Evan immediately got up, "are you alright?" he held her arm as he asked that in an extreme tender voice.
Daniella nodded, her hand lifted to touch his cheek, "I am alright babe. Why don't you wrap everything here?" her eyes turned to the table with the guests enjoying their desserts, "I got everything I needed."
Then she turned around, but before that, she saw Elise staring at her like she took something very important from her.
Daniella needed to cut everything, will all the information she got, she didn't think she would have enough patience to smile at them.
She promised Evan that she won't touch his mother for Selena's sake. The same reason why she didn't dare to even look at her memory. She knew that if she did, she'll end up killing Elise.

As Robert tailed Daniella towards the master bedroom, his eyebrows were creasing indifferently. Daniella has her hands both clenched into fists but, one thing he noticed was that she's shaking which only meant that she's frightened.
Robert grabbed Daniella's wrist to stop her. When the woman turned to face him, he pulled her closer for a hug.
His hand went to her hair and patted it gently as he used too.
"don't worry I am here. I won't let him touch you."
Daniella sighed and shut her eyes. Her temples were pounding – giving her a headache.
She pulled away and raised her chin to meet his eyes.
She will always be his little sister, that's what she read in Robert's eyes and she's glad that she has him around.
She took a step back, face turned serious, "I found who's the man behind Roman Lee."
Stunned by what he heard, Robert's lips pursed together.
"Who?"
Daniella's lips quivered, she took a sigh and with shut eyes, she said, "Roy Chu, Ken's father."
She opened her eyes when she heard Robert laughing. She looked at him with a frown, he was laughing as if the situation amused him.
"What's funny?" she asked raising a brow.
Robert lifted both shoulders, "because you are freaking funny."
Immediately, Daniella's face flattened, "do I look like a clown to you?"
He nodded in response, "you are so fucking dumb Daniella," he moved closer until he cornered her to the wall, one finger lifted and poked her head repeatedly, "your boyfriend's mother killed your mom, his father took your mom's corpse, his sister-in-law had your brother killed, and now, his best friend father was the main founder of the laboratory you were locked in."
He shook his head while a bitter smile was on his lips.
"That's not the end, because your boyfriend's mother had my dad killed, and sent me to prison, and you had me cook dinner for her," sarcasm was on his voice as he spoke, then he blew a sigh, placed both hands on Daniella's shoulder, "don't you think the universe is sending you a message that you can't be with him?" he shook her shoulder gently as if it was a way to wake her up from the reality.
"Let go back to our life before Daniella, please," he begged, that's all he could do, he can only beg for her to leave Evan since there's no way he can drag her out of the villa.
"What life?" Daniella asked, shifting her sight to his chest, refusing to watch the pain in his eyes.
"What life do I have Robert? Do you think I like what I am doing?"
She sniffed to prevent herself from crying.
"Do you think I like meeting them? Hurting those people? Using them?" she giggled with tears in her eyes, "I don't but every time I see my scars there's a freaking voice in my head, urging me to hurt them, torture them and it's so…" her heads clenched his shirt.
"It's so satisfying but… their faces, they are in my dreams, haunting me every night."
"I saw Camille's life and it was so fucking perfect. I want that… I want to be normal like her. I want my mom, my brother, I want them back."
And there it was, the voice of the girl from the night their family died, Robert hated it, it sounded so helpless and vulnerable.
"Sh…" he patted her head, bent a little to embrace her tightly. He hated to see her crying, those black irises of hers, he didn't want to see them.
"I am here Daniella, but don't give everything to him, remember blood is thicker than water," he advised.
She stiffened upon hearing it. What he said was true but Daniella knew that Evan was different.
Placing both palms on Robert's cheeks, she smiled at him.
"I am doing this for you, Daniella. You're special to me and I don't want to see you hurt," he paused and seized her hands from caressing his cheeks, "if I see you crying because of him, I will beat him up, I will beat him to death."
Daniella giggled, "you are lying," she said.
"I am not."
"You're a liar."
Robert wrinkled his nose, his hand went to her cheek and pinched it hard.
"We are having a good moment and you really have to ruin it."
"Stop it," she slapped his hand away from her cheek, "it's painful."
Robert let her go, then he swung his body and prepared to leave but before that he said, "we can discuss Roy Chu tomorrow, you should rest."
Tilting her head in confusion, Daniella watched Robert as he went back downstairs,

On the other side.
After Evan left the dining, Roman settled on his chair, his eyes were locked at the water in the glass. His mind baffled on how Daniella could eat anything with sesame, as far as he remembered, there's no cure to her allergies.
Hands-on his laps clenched tightly. After the twins escaped the Island, Roy Chu, his boss took all of his research and left him with nothing but the memories he had with the twins.
He grimaced, he tried to find the files but Roy Chu had too much connection and too powerful that he couldn't even get close to him.
His thought was disturbed when his phone buzzed, he looked at it and found a message from the person who he hadn't spoken for a long time.
'I heard you're back, let's meet.'
He sighed and replied ok, it was the president. One of the people who were interested in the twins.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
