"What! Father collapsed? What happened? " Surprisingly, Daniel asked.

"Lord Larsson had not been feeling well lately. Now it seemed his ailment had gotten worse. "

Daniel's heart laced with fear when he heard that.

"So what are the doctors saying? Is my father going to be alright? " He asked.

"Well, we don't know yet, Ivan. However, Lord Larsson desires to see you. "

Unhesitatingly Daniel replied, "Alright Jameson, tell father I'm coming to the city to see him, okay. "

"Alright, Young master Ivan. " Jameson answered.

Daniel ended the call, looking so unsettled.

If Isabelle was by the side, she would be utterly surprising by the talk.

The powerful Lord Larsson.

He was a business legend. His wealth was in the hundreds of millions.

As long as anyone's company could be favored by Lord Larsson's empire, theirs would be a company of untold riches. 

Isabelle had been dreaming to be worked with them.

Yet, unknowingly to Isabelle and her family, Daniel was actually the firstborn son of Lord Larsson.

His real name was Ivan Larsson.

The man he just called, Jameson, is the right-hand man of Lord Larsson. Everyone in the country knows him well.

Daniel turns back one last time to look at the mansion.

There were lots of things he had been hiding from Isabelle and her family.

And they would never get a favor from it.

*****

The next day, early in the morning, Daniel travelled to the country's capital city, Westville to visit his father.

After hearing what happened to his father, he was so disturbed and could not wait to see him.

Before he arrived the city, Jameson already gave him the address of the hospital.

However on his way to the hospital, on the quiet and lonely road, horrifyingly before his face, an exotic white Mercedes benz lost it's balance and crashed horribly on the back of a large oak tree.

" Stop! " Daniel shouted and immediately the cab man stepped on his brakes.

As soon as the driver stopped, Daniel stepped out of the cab.

"Oh my goodness, what just happened? " He exclaimed with horror, glancing at the accident scene.

"Help!! Help me, somebody, please!"

Out of horror, Daniel was about to leave the place when suddenly he heard an horrifying female voice crying for help.

It was coming from the direction of the car, and instead of leaving, because of the good heart he had, he decided to stay back to save the lady.

The cab man could not wait. After collecting his money, he immediately drove off from the place.

When Daniel ran to the scene of the accident, the car was already so damaged and smoke were all over the place.

Hearing the lady screaming, "Calm down Ma'am, I'll get you out of there, I promise." He said loudly, trying to calm her down.

When the lady heard his voice, she cried, "Please save me, please! I don't want to die! "

He was trying to find the car's door, but it was difficult because of the strong pungent smoke surrounding the car. 

Daniel could no longer hear the lady's screams anymore. He became worried.

Finally, he was able to locate the door of the car, but another problem resurfaced. The door refused to open. It seemed locked from inside.

This may be the reason the lady was unable to come out of the car.

Anyways after noticing a sudden leakage from the car's engine, fearing that the car my explode, he decided to break the windshield of the car to get the lady out immediately.

Just as he felt, there was a loud uproar as the car suddenly exploded into the thin air.

Luckily for him, he was able to get lady out of the car on his arms before it happened.

Daniel saw the raging fire. He was glad he was able to save the lady early enough.

When he looked at the face of the lady, he puzzles at her.

"Damn! " He muttered. She is an extreme epitome of beauty.

Her face sparkles like diamond and apart from her beauty, she was extremely endowed that any man who sees her would definitely lose his focus.

He was so mesmerized by her features that he wondered, what if he hadn't saved her. The world would have just lost an angel.

"Hey Miss, are you alright? " Gazing at her, worriedly, he asked.

The beautiful lady had already become very weak due to the suffocation she encounter in the car. However when she regained a little of her strength and looked at her savior,

"Daniel? " Suddenly she exclaimed with a surprise look on her face.

Daniel was stunned. How did the gorgeous damsel know his name.

"Huh, how do you know my name, have we met before? " He asked.

"Don't you remember me? It's me, Eva. We both attended the same college, remember?"

When Daniel looked at her closely, his lips parted as he partially recognized the face, "Huh, Eva Roosevelt? "

The lady nodded with a smile, "Yes, Daniel, it's me."

Daniel could not believe his eyes.

They both attended the same college years back. She was the most beautiful girl in the campus, loved and adored by many.

He once saved her life and since then they became very close friends until when she suddenly disappeared.

It's been 7 years since he last saw her, he could barely recognise her. Now she was more stunning than ever.

"Oh my God, Eva, where have you been? " He asked her.

Eva smiled at him. However, as she she was about to speak, all of a sudden she slumped and fainted on his arms.

Daniel's heart laced with fear, "Eva! Eva! Are you alright?! " He panicked as he gently held her face. Seeing that she was not responding, he became terrified.

Not long, he noticed blood oozing from Eva's nose.
