"Something is wrong, Ms Reynolds."Tom rose quickly from his chair. It was almost morning when Tom remembered to call Shannon after all night long of watching the furniture production without missing the procedures.He rubbed his nose furiously as he realised something was off. Fighting off his overwhelming sleepiness, he leaned back and watched the stars through the glass window in his office."There's something wrong here. After all, no one anybody wants the others to see their quarrel."Shannon, who was still closed up in bed, could not do much. She glanced at the clock that was still pointing to four in the morning while clearing her throat, adjusting her voice that was still hoarse because she had just woken up from a night's sleep."Didn't I tell you before? Because of her head injury, it's possible for Camellia to change for good in just a matter of nights. It doesn't hurt us anyway, does it? Maybe we have the advantage of keeping a close eye on their progress in making plans."

Jill threw the wineglass in her hand quickly at Arthur. Her eyes were red with resentment when she heard the news that Tom had survived and Brown hadn't done his job properly."Is there no one else I can count on?"Arthur jumped backwards to get out of the way. His breath caught in his throat as he recalled the stakes that hadn't yet been raised by Jill, who was beginning to lose her mind."The police aren't continuing their investigation because there's firm evidence from the hidden cameras that Tom stabbed Lark in self-defence, Mrs Reynolds."Jill gave Arthur a sharp glance. She approached Arthur with wide strides. "I don't care and I don't want to know anything about it, Arthur! At least, if Brown dies, he won't be able to blackmail us! He won't make us go down with him."Arthur looked down and nodded in affirmation as he gazed out of the window of Jill Reynolds' luxurious room. "You're right. But doesn't that mean we can make Tom stop

"Do you want to kick me out, Aland?"Instead of being surprised by Shannon's stubborn refusal to leave for her own safety, Tom smiling. He rubbed the corner of Shannon's eyes that had to get wet and then touched her chin for a while."If you don't want to go anywhere and still want to accompany me, then you have to grow stronger than before, Ms Reynolds. This is only the beginning. And for them, there may never be a happy ending for us."Shannon blinked quickly, glancing up to keep her tears at bay. "Of course. I'll be stronger. We'll face this together. I'll show them that despite their bullying, we can still live happily."Pete, who was still there, smiled and raised his thumbs up to his chest as the couple turned to him. He grabbed the things that had been packed to take away.Tom got up with his hand, clutching Shannon tightly. He carried Shannon out of the hospital without any fear of death. Together with Pete, who bring back some im

"Can you see? You can still monitor them from home, right? Since morning, I asked some technicians to install many surveillance cameras at JF Moulding and JF Properties."Tom placed the tab Pete had bought on the table. He rested his head on the back of the chair that could be adjusted in height and angle. "We're innocent, Pete. We shouldn't be afraid."Pete lowered his head slowly before finally leaning back. He walked over to a picture of James as a young man with his happy little family. "I'm not scared because we're right, Tom. I just know we have to take risks in the truth. You know, the world is not just about right and wrong. It's about the strong and the weak. The brave and the afraid. There's a lot more to it than that. And I just want to make our path easier. I don't want the same thing to happen again. Because without you, I don't know who else I would hope for."Seeing Pete gazing at the picture of his childhood family, Tom moved. He also moved
