Leon stands in front of the mirror, knotting his tie and making sure that he is perfect for this ceremony today.

For the first time in twenty years, he will be attending an occasion to celebrate his parents, even in death, and their achievements.

It's a big deal for him, and he is brooding over the matter. The twins are going to meet them at the venue, this is going to be the first time that they will all be attending something like this together.

A soft knock sounds on the door, and Helen walks in. She looks pretty in her blue dress, and her makeup makes her look more like a disney princess, not just the badass doctor that she is.

“Wow, you look very handsome.” She walks over to him and smoothens the sleeves of his suit.

His eyes catch a fancy ring on her finger, a ring that he recognizes. To be honest, a diamond that size is hard to miss.

“You're wearing Alex's ring.” Leon points out.

She sighs, and puts her left hand behind her. It's like she is ashamed of the ring.

    There, the cat is finally out of the bag. Leon is waiting for the worst possible thing to happen, but to his surprise, Mister Jones just walks into his car and shuts the door. Leon looks at him through the mirror. He just told the ill-tempered man that he got married to his daughter and he just walked away? Well, Leon has to shrug off the shock because he has to go back to the hospital. He turns on his car and drives out of the compound. Seems like Mister Jones is still in shock, because he doesn't go after him. After driving for a while, Leon sees the car a few meters away from him. A little while later, Mister Jones has stepped on the gas and now he is driving side-by-side with Leon. What's wrong with him? This is an illegal move right here, and he is not scared that he can get arrested for it? Before Leon could say anything, Mister Jones hit his car, almost running him off the side of the road. “What the hell?” Leon manages to get back in control of his vehicle. Mister Jo

    Leon is going over to the house to give Alex his dose, as it's already the time. When he gets there, he is surprised to see Mister Jones' car in the parking lot. He is not surprised that the man is here, it's just because he hasn't seen the man in a while. He has become a known face around here, and so no one even pays him any attention as he walks into the house and goes upstairs. He opens the door to see that Alex is already seated, and Mister Jones is staring out of the window, they were speaking, but then they have just been interrupted by Leon coming in. Mister Jones' eyes turn hostile as soon as he sees Leon. “Good morning,” Leon sets his kits down. He pretends not to hear what they are talking about as he fills the syringe. “How much do you think is enough to put everything together?” Alex asks. “A hundred million should be enough. It's not a small business.” Alex takes off his shirt and relaxes his muscles. Leon goes behind him and they are all briefly quiet as Leon

    Damien rubs his hands over his eyes, just to make sure that he is not dreaming. Is she a vengeful spirit that has come to torment him from the other life? He paid good money for her, her brothers, and mother to disappear, so that they won't sabotage his plan of taking over the Shankly family, so why is she here? He abandons his shopping cart and walks over to her, grabbing her arm. She gasps, her eyes widens with shock once she sees him. Oh, she is real alright, and it's indeed Elle. “You.” His eyes fixates on her. “You are supposed to be dead.” She struggles to free herself from his grip, but he won't let go of her. He will demand an explanation from the people that are supposed to make sure she was dead with the rest. “Answer me, Ellie!” He yells at her. “I– I don't know who you are.” She stammers. He scoffs. “Nice try, girl, I am not going to be fooled by you. Explain everything to me, or I am going to make you regret it.” He has forgotten that they are in a very public pl

    Damien has a grand plan and with that, he makes his way to Helen's office. She is exhausted, she has just gotten out of a two hours meeting with some partners, now her ex brother has walked in on her. “Hello, Helen, you look well!” He says with an upbeat tone. Before she could ask him what he is doing here, he pulls her into a hug that almost squeezes the life out of her. He has brought with him a bouquet of flowers, which he proudly drops on the table. “Damien, I banned you from ever coming in here. What are you doing?” she asks with an unfriendly tone. Damien laughs as he sits down, he doesn't even wait for her to offer him a seat. “Oh, Helen, what's with all the hostility? Don't you think it's time for us to bury the hatchet?” He cross his legs. “We are not kids anymore, and this beef has gone on for too long.” “What beef?” She demands to know. “You overstepped my boundaries, and I kicked you out to make space for my real brother.” Damien pushes his tongue against the sid

    Selina slams the door of the bedroom. “I am tired of this bullshit, Damien! You promised me that once Alex gets married to Helen, that she will be forced to hand everything over to you. Why hasn't that happened yet?!” Damien is having a smoke close to the window. He is running his free hand over his forehead, as if his wife is giving him a headache now. “Your mother is still with the boys, and you left her to come and scream in my ears?!” He hiss. Selina goes over to him, standing right in his face. “Look, even my mother has started to ask questions. We are supposed to be the happening couple of this city, what happened? Why have you suddenly turned a mascot for Alex Kane?! I'm sure that he has already forgotten about you!” Yes, it's true that Alex Kane placed Damien on a good salary and also gave them this house and some expensive cars, but Damien is not satisfied. The gifts were just enough to pacify him for a while, but that is over now. What he wants is control over the

    Alex is in Grand East kingdom for a meeting with the members of the royal family. The camera lights are flickering rapidly as he smiles. “Good doing business with you, Mister Kane.” The crowned Prince says. “We will meet at the grand dinner tomorrow, I can't wait for you to meet the rest of my family.” Alex nods with a jovial expression. “And I apologize for my wife's absence. Being a huge Doctor doesn't permit her to travel as freely as I do.” “Oh please, I understand. Where in the world would we be without the brilliant Doctors and scientists from the Shankly family?” Alex walks back to his car waiting outside, he is heading back to his hotel as he has a zoom meeting to attend before heading out to meet another business partner later that evening. Mister Jones is in the car when Alex gets in, but he is not surprised to see him. They both made plans to meet today. “My men tell me that you arrived late.” Alex says. “I apologize, there was a little problem with my wife.” Alex
