Pacing in the bedroom like a ghost, Daniella's eyes were glued at the phone on her hand. Evan hasn't contacted her for a whole day and she was starting to get worried.
She swallowed hard and sat on the edge of the bed, her fingers were typing so fast that they looked like the hands of a robot.
'Babe, where are you?'
She hasn't thought of tracking him, she knew that he was busy but she was not expecting him to not have time to even reply to one of her messages.
She called Matthew and Selena to ask if Evan contacted them and he did. She let out a sharp breath to calm herself. Selena said that her uncle Evan must be planning something to surprise her that's why he was not calling her.
Her thumb pressed the call button. The phone rang loudly as she switched it to the speaker.
"The number you have dialled is currently unavailable please…"
Daniella didn't bother to finish the operator from talking. She ended the call with a heavy feeling on her chest.
Lifting a hand she clutched her chest. A weird feeling started to form inside making her heart pulsated uncontrollably as if she was having a heart attack.
She rested her hands holding the phone to her lap, her eyes looked at the wall where a photo of her and Evan was hanging.
The muscles in her jaw hardened. Her mind ran different thoughts, wondering if something happened to him, what was running in his mind or if he was alright.
'What if he met another woman?'
Her eyes went round by the thought.
'No! It's impossible. I am too perfect to be replaced.'
She got up and walked back and forth again anxiously, one hand holding the phone while the other was in her mouth. She was nibbling her nail nervously.
Her spirit almost left her body when suddenly, her phone rang.
Without looking at the caller ID Daniella answered the call.
"Babe!"
Her voice strained with worry, fear and a bit of anger. If he was just in front of her, he would be on the floor with scratches on his chest.
"It's Roman Lee."
Hearing that voice, Daniella's body stiffened. Her face immediately went blank and lips pursed together as if they have been glued.
"Where are you?" Daniella asked eventually after a long moment of silence.
"I am in Paris but I will be back next week to discuss the project with you."
Daniella's face twitched when she heard the word project. It sounded so normal except they will be using her body for the experiment.
Her jaw gnashed, she knew that she had agreed to it and it was the only way to stop everyone from coming after her.
"What do you want?" she asked.
"Does Evan know about this?"
Daniella went silent. He didn't know as she never told him but she was planning too once he came back.
"Its none of your business," she said coldly and hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, Roman Lee's lips stretched in a wide smile. In front of him was Evan sitting on the single sofa with a grim face.
The man suddenly popped in front of him and started asking about the recent conversation he had with Daniella.
At first, Evan didn't believe but now, he heard it directly from Daniella's mouth.
He was about to speak when Evan got up and turned around. Before he could leave, Roman Lee seized his elbow.
"Are you really going to do it?" his voice stuttered as he asked that. The aura emitting from Evan was too dark and cold, making his skin crawl.
Evan shook off his arm and nodded. Then he left the place with the same dark expression he had from the time he came.
Roman Lee immediately dialled his wife number and when she answered, his voice as energetic as a boy who got his favourite toy yelled, "get Camille. We are going to celebrate my success."

In Paris.
Inside of the hotel room, Claire standing next to the window slowly opened the folder with the DNA result she did for Danny Hei.
She walked over the table casually as she pulled out the result. She picked up the bagel on the plate and took a bite.
Fear crossed over Claire's face as she stared at the DNA result in her hands. Her eyelashes flickered repeatedly, breathing hardened.
"This can't be true," she said with her mouth full, head shaking slowly in disbelief.
Her trembling hands lowered the paper on the table and then she gulped hard to swallow the bagel in her mouth.
Despite her trembling knees, Claire rushed to the window and opened it. The winter breeze blew on her ashen face, she just couldn't believe that the result was true.
"How could it be?" she said as she breathed the cold her in her mouth.
She might have not known Daniella through her whole life but the woman didn't lie to her. She has never lied to her. She might have kept some information but she will always say that she would rather not tell her about it instead of lying.
So she was certain that Daniella knew nothing about this but how did Danny become her son?
"Did they drug and rape her?" her head tilted in confusion.
But then her mind disagreed with her, it was as if she was having two people inside her brain.
'Drugs don't work on her.'
'Maybe they did it when she was in the laboratory?'
'No Daniella was virgin.'
Migraine started pounding her brain, making her hand massage her temples to ease the pain.
"Should I call her now?" she didn't know what to do. If she will tell Daniella she's afraid of what she will do with Glen to get the information on how did Danny become her son.
When her mind decided to call Daniella, a knock on the door sounded.
She lowered her phone to the table and walked towards the door like a zombie.
When she opened it, her spirit seemed to have left her body.
A tall man was standing in front of her hotel room door, the serious expression on his face made her skin shiver.
She gulped hard, the colour of her face disappeared and she became like a dead person with paper sheet face and lips pale and trembling.
"I am glad you got the result. I need a favour, Ms Boyle."
Claire's chest rose and fell in rapid breaths, she opened the door widely for him.
The man walked past her, and then she closed the door.
The man turned to face her, he shoved his hands in his front pockets and looked deeply at her.
"Danny is he really," her trembling lips made it hard for her to continue. She breathed shakily and tried to calm her nerves.
"Yes, Daniella is the mother of my son."
And that confirmation has made Claire's body weak. Her body slumped to the floor as she could no longer hold her weight.
Glen walked closer to her and squatted to the ground next to her.
"I just spoke to Evan and he wanted us to keep the information for now."
"Can you do it, doctor?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
