Stacy holds her hand over her chest. She is disheartened that Mrs Lance is asking after Wendy, the same person who abandoned her, but she doesn't know what to say to Mrs Lance.

Even though she has been mean to her, she doesn't want to break her heart.

If she tells Mrs Lance all the mean things Wendy said about her, she would not believe her. So, what's the use? Why even try?

“Mrs Lance, please don't move too much because you are weak. Let's wait for the doctors to come to treat you and I'm sorry, but if I have to guess, I think you are going to spend the night in the hospital.”

“What?” Mrs Lance raises her head even higher. “Did you not hear what I asked you? I said where is my beautiful daughter-in-law, Wendy?! Why would I have you by my side when I can have her?!”

I didn't want you to die…” Stacy has barely finished speaking when Mrs Lance bursts into tears and starts to cry into her hands. “Oh, I can't believe this,” she sobs. “You, the girl that I have been horrible to, is the one who is choosing to save me? Not even Wendy? The one I loved and chose over you?” Stacy looks around in surprise. She is stunned that Mrs Lance didn't expect that she would even offer to help her. “You are my husband's mother, Mrs Lance. It's okay if you don't like me, I would give my blood to save you even a hundred times.” she chuckles nervously. Mrs Lance reaches out and hugs Stacy very

    General Landon Hayes doesn't know how to thank Gray for doing him a favour and agreeing to come here. “Honestly, Mars, I don't know what I would have done without you. If we had gone to war without your strong training, we would have fatally lost everything.” He shakes his head “Come on, General Hayes, you are not going to give me all the credit.

This is a debt that I would never be able to pay.” Gray inhales and slips his hands into his pockets. “Who knows? One day, I might need a humongous favour from you. We can't tell.” “And I will do all I can to repay you when that day comes.” The two men shake hands. The rest of the Generals are waiting and they all shake hands with Gray respectfully, even those they are old enough to be his fathers.

    Mister de Nicola is taken aback by this. He helplessly looks at him knowing that there is nothing he can do about this. They have to obey Gray, or else they will be kicked out of the secret society. They can't be kicked out. They might be the biggest Mafia family in the country, but this society has helped them too much for them to leave it. So, he looks at his son and nods his head a little. Mateo frowns greatly.

You think because I am old, I am going to be able to believe everything?” She laughs. “How are you the richest man in the world?
