This is the most important thing that Leon would ever have to do in his life. As he looks down, he sees over a thousand doctors that has studied and achieved so much in their lives, and he wonders if they are going to laugh in his face when he delivers his lecture. His eyes move to MJ, and she crosses her fingers in support of him. Helen is a few steps away from him, so he takes a deep breath in, and delivers the most breath taking lecturer. By the end of it, the entire auditorium is standing on their feet cheering and applauding him. “This is the most brilliant thing we have heard from such a young man!” “He is going to be the greatest Doctor of the century!” Leon bows, his hands held over his chest. Helen has tears in her eyes with pride. She can go to sleep peacefully from now on. Her family empire is going to be in good hands…At the end of the conference, it's evident that no other lectures, not even from the top doctor professors, has been able to match Leon's. Everyon

Leon looks in the mirror and sighs because he realizes that he will have to change his tie for the third time. There is nothing wrong with the tie, or the others that he had put on before. It's just that he is very nervous to be attending this conference. It's not a small event, not to him. He will get to meet many doctors that he has looked up to. He is going to meet MJ's family, and so many others too. By the time he gets downstairs, Helen is waiting for him in a green dress. Her serious face breaks into a smile once she sees him. “Wow, you look so handsome, Leon. Here, I will take a quick picture for the twins!” Leon blushes as she puts her phone up and takes some pictures. It's nice that his sisters don't care that he is in his mid twenties. They are going to treat him with the fondness they've been saving for him. Even with that happiness, he feels a bad thought haunting him in his heart. “But Helen, I don't think that Damien wants me to be there.” He heaves. “And you

Leon freezes once he hears what his sister has just said. He is going to the Conference?! Damien laughs as he slowly lays down his spoon and wipes his mouth with a napkin. “Helen, please tell me that this is a joke,” he calmly requires. Helen sighs, she knows he won't take it likely. “Listen to me, Damien, for the first time in your entitled life, think! Leon has never attended before, why don't you allow him to go to this one?!” “Because it is my birthright, damn it!” He hits his hand on the table in anger, attracting the attention of the staff around. “Is it my fault that he was born into the family of nobodies? Why do I have to sacrifice things for him because he is your protege?!” Helen sees that he is like a pot boiling over, and she immediately wishes that she never said anything here in the first place. “Please, Damien. It's very important to me that Leon attend it.” She tries to reach for Damien's hand, but he shifts his hand away. “It's important to me that I attend

Helen peers at the screen of the iPad, totally flabbergasted by what she has seen. Leon takes the long look on her face to mean that he has somehow messed up her project. “Helen, did I get it wrong?” He asks with worry. “Oh, no, Leon.” She chuckles. “This is not wrong, this is brilliant. Wait here, I've got to make a phone call.” She rushes to her laboratory and immediately types on her computer, and before running the code. “It works,” she presses her hands over her face. “Oh my God!” She picks her phone and make a call. “Doctor Elle, I need you to drop everything you are doing and run this correction I am going to send to you. I think there is a way for us to run the drug without the endless list of side effects.” The person at the other end exhales. “Doctor Shankly, are you sure?” “Run it. It works on my end.” Helen sends it, and she smiles once she hears the gasp from the doctor. “This is a miracle, Helen! How were you able to break it? We haven't been able to sleep bec

Selina holds her breath, she has just given her halfbrother the biggest threat ever. This could go two ways. It's either he listens to her and allows them to be, or he will be even more angry, and throws them out. But Donald Xavier comes to her face and bends to meet her height. “Is this one of your jokes, Selina?” He snorts. “A joke?” She retorts. “Look at my engagement ring! Do you still think I am joking?” But Donald doesn't even glance at the huge rock on her finger. For all he knows, it might be a fake. “Get me a dinner meeting with your so called husband to be, and I will believe you.” Mrs Xavier shakes her head with eyes weakened from crying. “You won't believe us until it's too late.” “You have five days to get me dinner with the heir of the Shankly family, and then maybe I can strike a deal with you, dear sister.” He snaps his fingers, and his men immediately starts to walk to their cars. Selina and her mother watch in fright as the cars leave the compound. It's li

Hearing MJ introduce herself as Leon's girlfriend makes Selina laugh in disbelief. She strongly believes that Leon is still in love with her, and won't move so quickly to another woman. She doesn't love Leon anymore, but she loves the idea of him begging for her to take him back till eternity….“Please, spare me the lies!” She hiss rudely. “Leon is not qualified enough to be with a girl like you!” MJ is immediately offended by this. “What's that supposed to mean? Leon is handsome and kind, is that not enough for us to love each other?” Selina scoffs. “Silly girl! He doesn't have a dollar to his name, so any lies he has told you, it's better you don't believe it! Trust me, I divorced him due to how useless he is!” Leon just looks down, he has gotten so used to Selina embarrassing him, but MJ is not going to be having any of that today. She pulls Leon in and gives him a hot and deep kiss on his lips. Everyone gasps, because it's like a scene from a fairytale. “I'm in love with
