Dexter arrived at the hospital around 9 p.m. that evening to find the doctors conducting various checks on Ivy. Despite his long and stressful day, the news of Ivy's awakening compelled him to set aside any thoughts of rest and rush to her side. Ivy lay still in her hospital bed, her eyes open but her body motionless, casting a shadow of concern over Dexter's hopeful anticipation.Approaching Stephanie with a heavy heart, Dexter inquired about Ivy's condition."The doctors are still trying to determine the exact aftermath of Ivy's condition, but I'm afraid it may align with the initial report we received when Ivy was found," Stephanie lamented, her expression portraying every bit of worry."Don't say that, ma'am. Ivy will be fine," Dexter offered words of encouragement, hoping to instill a sense of hope amidst the uncertainty.After a few minutes, the chief of police arrived, having been informed by Stephanie about Ivy's awakening."How's she doing?" the chief inquired, directing his

It's about Ivy," she explained, her words heavy with unspoken implications."I'm yet to believe what you told me about the doctor's report." Richard said."It's true, Richard," he confirmed solemnly. "Ivy's condition isn't good."Richard's anger flared at the confirmation, his resolve hardening as he spoke. "Then it's time we dig in deep and find out who really did this to Ivy," he declared. "We can't just sit back and allow her to suffer like this."Dexter immediately recalled his encounter with Sandy at the café, "I think I know who was responsible for Ivy's abduction and how she got the injury in her head that landed her in the

Sandy excused Victor and went to meet Dexter and Richard, her attempt at cordiality met with frosty reception."You didn't tell me you'd be coming," Sandy said with forced politeness."I don't see the reason why I should," Dexter retorted curtly, his demeanor aloof as he brushed past her. Richard followed suit, his silence echoing Dexter's indifference.Sandy's heart quickened at their dismissive attitudes, a sense of foreboding settling over her like a shroud. But she pushed aside her apprehension, determined to maintain a façade of composure in the face of their disdain."Heard Ivy's finally awake," Sandy remarked casually.Dexter's footsteps faltered at the mention of Ivy's name, his gaze piercing as he turned to face Sandy. "And how did you find out?" he inquired."I don't see the reason why I should tell you," she retorted defiantly, her words laced with defiance as she turned on her heel and made her way to join the other guests.Everyone was already seated in the grand hall whe

Dexter returned home that evening feeling fulfilled. Although the words of Sandy kept ringing in his ears, he didn't want to dwell too much on them. "Are you okay?" Richard asked, seeing through him that he was somehow bothered."Yes I am." Dexter replied after which he dismissed Richard and asked him to go home. The following day would be the meeting scheduled with the members of the board at Richmond's to decide the next chairman of the company.

Dexter stepped into the boardroom, his presence commanding attention as he made his way to his seat. The familiar surroundings brought a rush of memories flooding back, reminding him of how long he had been away from the board's meetings.

Dexter couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at Jack's expression, wondering what antics he had up his sleeve this time. Glancing around the table, Dexter noted that every other board member was present, their faces a mix of anticipation and curiosity as they awaited the arrival of the final member.
