"Helen Cole is the exact same name on the memorial tablet at the clinic," Victoria gasped. Her beautiful eyes widened with sudden and totally intense realization.

"Bring me Ethan Cole background file immediately," Victoria commanded. She waved her hand frantically at her loyal bodyguards in the crowded room.

She pulled up the bright digital screen and pointed directly at the beautiful painted portrait.

"Is this the exact woman who treated you?" Victoria asked. Her voice trembled with a massive surge of wild desperate hope.

Nathan stared deeply at the glowing screen and his face went completely pale.

"That is Doctor Helen," Nathan confirmed. His jaw dropped wide open in pure unadulterated shock.

"She is the magnificent woman who cured my terrible infection with pure magic," Nathan cried. He pointed a shaking finger at the small screen.

Victoria jumped to her feet before the crowded wealthy room could even react.

"Bring my grandfather body and follow me right now," Victoria ordered. Her tone was sharp and carried absolute unquestionable authority.

The entire luxurious bedroom erupted into total blinding chaos and loud arguments.

"The Old Master has been entirely dead long enough for his skin to go cold," Mrs. Hayes shrieked. She stomped her expensive shoes on the floor in pure extreme desperation.

"No one brings back a dead dog from the grave," Mrs. Hayes sobbed. She clutched her head in total overwhelming panic.

"This is a totally monumental and completely pathetic joke," Doctor James laughed. His old face twisted into a highly ugly and incredibly arrogant sneer.

"You are acting exactly like a stupid feral animal chasing its own useless tail," Doctor James mocked. He rolled his eyes toward the ceiling in complete pure disgust.

"Are you entirely insane Victoria?" Nathan asked. His face flushed bright red with extreme heavy confusion.

Victoria faced the entire angry wealthy crowd with total unwavering resolve.

"I will bear absolutely every single consequence completely alone," Victoria declared. Her loud voice echoed wildly against the high ceiling.

"If anything goes entirely wrong tonight I will leave the Harlow family forever," Victoria promised. Her dark eyes burned with intense fierce determination.

"I will completely surrender my royal status as the sole heir of this empire," Victoria swore. She lifted her chin up with massive unbelievable pride.

The loud chaotic room fell instantly into absolute total dead silence.

"Empty every single piece of cash from your pockets right now," Victoria commanded. She glared fiercely at the wealthy elites surrounding her.

She had the Old Master carefully carried out to a massive black luxury car. She drove rapidly back toward the dark alley clinic.

Doctor James got into his own extremely expensive car to follow them closely from behind.

"I want to watch this pathetic stupid dog show fail completely," Doctor James chuckled. His eyes gleamed with pure nasty malicious amusement.

Across the massive city Sophia woke up slowly in her grand expensive bedroom. Her delicate throat felt incredibly dry and terribly rough.

"Has Ethan come back begging yet?" Sophia asked immediately. She rubbed her tired eyes with perfectly manicured hands.

"That useless stray dog is nowhere to be found," Tyler sneered. He crossed his arms tightly over his broad chest.

"The much more urgent problem is Walter Thompson right now," Tyler warned. His handsome face carried a totally grim and serious expression.

"He left a very dire warning that we will hear from him tomorrow," Tyler explained. His voice shook slightly with genuine heavy creeping dread.

"He will destroy us completely if the Phoenix Remedy recipe does not magically materialize," Tyler finished. He paced nervously across the soft expensive carpet.

Sophia sat straight up in her large comfortable bed. She pointed a totally shaking finger directly at Ashley.

The massive heavy weight of terrible reality completely crashed into the silent room.

"Helen Cole prepared that exact recipe specifically for the Morgan family," Sophia whispered. Her beautiful face turned as white as pale chalk.

"Because I went to a stupid dog party Ethan burned the entire thing," Sophia realized. Her chest heaved rapidly with absolute blinding massive panic.

"Our family just lost at least one hundred billion dollars," Sophia choked. Warm tears of pure extreme regret flooded her wide beautiful eyes.

Diane stood totally frozen in the center of the large luxurious room. Her wrinkled face shook violently with pure unhinged and terrible shock.

Tyler let his dark eyes go completely wide with sheer absolute pure terror.

The massive astronomical number landed on all of them with the total devastating force of a collapsing building.

Diane recovered her wicked senses first and marched quickly across the large room.

She slapped Ashley across the face with absolutely explosive and totally violent force.

"You worthless filthy female dog," Diane screamed. Her face twisted into absolute terrifying unhinged rage.

Diane grabbed the secretary long hair and slapped her hard again and again.

"You told my daughter to attend that stupid animal birthday party," Diane accused. She pulled the thick hair with violent and totally brutal force.

"You cost us one hundred billion dollars you dirty street mongrel," Diane roared. She slapped the crying young woman repeatedly without mercy.

"You belong in a filthy dark cage eating our garbage leftovers," Diane insulted. She spit pure venomous anger directly into Ashley bloody face.

"You are nothing but a begging parasite dragging us down into the dirty mud," Diane yelled. Her chest heaved heavily with total absolute outrage.

Ashley shrieked loudly in pure terrible extreme agony. Warm red blood poured down her swollen and highly bruised cheek.

Tyler rushed forward quickly to physically intervene and stop the violent bloody beating.

He wanted to protect Ashley purely because of their secret dirty bedroom arrangement.

"If you do not stop hitting me I will tell everyone what Tyler and I do like wild dogs in the dark," Ashley screamed. She sobbed pathetically through her bloody teeth.

Tyler felt his handsome face go totally white with sheer absolute massive alarm.

The extreme violence and loud chaotic arguments finally settled into a very grim consensus.

Beating this pathetic crying stray dog solved absolutely nothing tonight.

"Ethan has to be found immediately before we lose our entire grand empire," Sophia ordered. Her voice grew extremely cold and totally hard like ice.

"He will be hiding in his cheap little clinic like a frightened tiny puppy," Tyler suggested. He wiped cold nervous sweat from his pale forehead.

Sophia ground her perfect white teeth together extremely tightly in the quiet tense room.

She admitted quietly inside her own totally stressed mind that Ashley was only a small accelerant to the fire.

The terrible and highly arrogant choice to despise Ethan like a feral animal was entirely her own horrible mistake.

She pulled her expensive phone from her designer pocket and checked the completely blank screen.

There was still absolutely no word at all from her missing husband.

Sophia led the angry desperate group out toward the Cole Clinic in the dark.
