Leon thinks that this is a joke that Damien paid them to play on him, but when he sees the seriousness on their faces, he starts to feel his heart beat faster. “Sorry, I didn't hear you the first time. How much did you say is in my name?” Leon asks. “A hundred million dollars.” The officer answers again. “Is this a prank? Why would she accuse you of stealing from her if you are so rich?” Leon swallows a gulp. He has never owned a hundred thousand dollars in his life, talk more of a million, or a multimillion. He requests to see the screen too, and true to their words, Leon sees an account holding a hundred million dollars, and yes, it's in his name.There is only one answer to this. Helen. She knew that he would have said no to the money, so she went and opened an account and put a hundred million dollars in it without telling him. Now, the officers are scared because they have just assaulted a man who is clearly a big deal. The highest ranking officer decides to take over

Leon laughs at the ridiculous offer from Damien. Damien thinks this is because the money is too low. “Fine, Leon, I can be able to give you two million, but that means that you must leave today.” “Damien, are you being serious right now? Do you think I am here because of money?” Leon shakes his head. “I mean, why else are you here?” Damien scoffs. “I know how desperate poor people can be. My sister, for some reason, is very infatuated with you, but I don't like that at all. Get out of our lives, take the money, and disappear.” “No.” Leon says. “It's stupid that you think struggling people think like that. I am here because I want her to mentor me to become a good doctor, and when I am done with that, I will go on and make my family proud.” Damien's eyes darken with so much hate. He can barely stand Leon and how he behaves so high and mighty. “Fine, don't say that I didn't give you any chance.” Damien says. “This was your last chance to save yourself and you have just blown it.”

For a second, Damien thinks that he has suddenly developed ear problems and has started to hear untrue things. Surely his sister has not walked into this place and request to see that loser over him!For a second, he is fixed in a position, and he can't believe that Helen has come to this place to cause him this huge embarrassment! Helen looks at him straight in the eyes, and she doesn't even look sorry for what she has done. It's like she is trying to punish him for threatening her yesterday, and for what he did to Leon. Damien decides to put himself together, force a smile, and return back to his seat. To cover his embarrassment, he turns to Tom and Johnny. “She is probably going to give him the instructions on how to properly wash the cars when she is away.” Leon stands up and Helen puts her hand on his shoulder as they start to walk out together. For a second, a silly idea comes to everyone's head because Helen and Leon have more sibling chemistry than Damien and Helen. Th

The next day at school, the golden list has been replaced with a new copy since Damien tore it off the board, but something else has happened to the list. Luke was the last person on the list, and he went to the bar with a few friends because he worked so hard the week before, and this is his first time being on the list. He is very happy, even though he is number ten. He has just returned to school and finds out that his name has disappeared from the list, and Damien Shankly's name is back on the list! “Bloody hell!” He takes off his cap in anger. “Why has my name suddenly disappeared?!” Everyone is murmuring the part that they can't say out loud. Luke bursts through the management section to make a complaint, but when he comes out of the office, his eyes are bloodshot and he is sulking. Meanwhile, Damien is in a very bubbly mood and keeps boasting to everyone that he will have the longest streak on the list. It's obvious that everyone has slowly started to hate him, because t

“Did that fool lock you out of the house?!” Helen demands to know in anger. Leon can see the boiling rage in her, and the last thing he wants is for her to confront Damien. She doesn't even know that Damien almost got him kicked out of school today, and he doesn't intend to tell her, because he doesn't want her to get more worked up over it. He smiles and pretends that all of this is not a big deal. “Come on, Helen. We know that Damien plays too much. Besides, I wanted to have a tour around the house, so it's not a big deal.” Leon throws his bag over his shoulder. “So he locked you out?” Helen's frown deepens. “That's alright. It's about time I give that boy a beating!” She storms into the house and bursts through the doors as she goes around looking for her troublesome adopted brother. “Damien?! Where are you, goddamn it?!” Damien appears from the stairs with a smile on his face. “My dear sister, is that you?” She is about to give him a piece of her mind, but he takes her by

Helen Shankly has just left the lab, where she has been locked up for the entire day. As soon as she sits down in her office to rest a bit and get ready to head back home, a knock comes on her door."“Lynn, I told you that I can't attend to anyone today.” She looks up not to find her assistant, but Doctor William, the director of the Falcon medicine school. “William.” Helen stands up with a surprised smile. “Wow, I wasn't expecting to see you.” She walks up to him, and they give each other a small hug. “How is my favorite Doctor doing?” Doctor William smiles. “I'm good. Looks like you have been busy running Falcon hospital and the school too.”“And you, my love, look like you haven't slept in weeks.” He teases her, but it's true. Helen is very beautiful, but she is so exhausted that her makeup is not doing a good job to hide the dark circles under her eyes. She has been working so hard on a secret medicine in her lab….“But, hey, you look beautiful as ever,” William adds. “Th
