Chapter XXV
Danie went too far in thinking that it would just be her and Lucas. Because when they arrived at the restaurant, Ace and Drew were already there.
Turned out, Lucas called for a meeting. Worst, he scolded the two men for allowing her to go on leave without informing him. Danielle felt like a silly child causing her two older brothers to get reprimanded by their father.
"Sir, Dana wasn't feeling well," Ace tried to reason. Of course, he would be the only one who had the guts to reason out. He knew Lucas too well.
"Does she look like she's not feeling well to you?" Lucas glared at Ace. "Do you know that because you allowed her to go without my permission, she almost got into a serious accident?"
"I'm sorry, Sir," Ace had to quit reasoning this time. He had no idea of what happened to Dana but since his boss was acting like this, he would just save his questions to Dana herself.
"Sorry? Can your sorry take a life back from the d

Doctors attending to the old Billionaire were no longer sure why he stayed comatose despite everything in his body being normal.

If Justus went as far as killing his only niece that he raised, it was not impossible that he also had a hand on his father's sudden cardiac arrest that eventually led to his comatose state.Danie wanted to come out and go back to save her grandfather.

When Danielle was growing up, she focused on her academics more than anything else. But there was a reason why she did that. She wanted attention from Justus and Lauro. They were always very busy with work and neither she nor her achievements successfully got their attention.She was very busy chasing familial love. She never once thought of trying to find love from someone else. She did have suitors. She was Danielle Williams, after all. Even though they knew not of her status as the Williams Group of Companies' sole heiress, she still had that aura of a rich beautiful lady.But she didn't go after the love of someone else, thus, at twenty-five, she never once experienced romantic love.

The next day, Danie received a text from 536 so early in the morning. The workaholic Lucas Del Fierro who said that she must ride to work with him every day wanted her to get prepared by six o'clock.Of course, she couldn't refuse even if she was used to getting up from bed by seven.Danielle had no choice but to drag herself to the bathroom. Lucas said that he would be in the parking lot in thirty minutes. Seemed like she had to practice moving fast every time she needs to be with Lucas.True enough, Lucas was already waiting for her in the basement parking.'Where does this man lives?' Danie thought while approaching the car.She knocked at the passenger seat because Lucas seemed to be very busy with his laptop that he didn't notice her arrival. He unlocked the door for her but barely leaving his eyes on the screen.Danieentered silently, she was scared to distract the man. Although she couldn't help but throw him a glance from

"I'm in the city, do you have time to spare, son?"Lucas looked at his wristwatch. It's almost time to go home. "Of course, Dad. Tell me where you are.""I'm in a restaurant near your office. I'm attending a Minister's meeting tonight so I won't hold you for long."Lucas thought of Dana so he called Ace after talking to his father."I'm going out first to meet my dad. I need you to make sure Dana gets home safely tonight. File it as overtime.""No need, Sir," Ace smiled. "Don't worry, I'll take care of Dana."He dismissed him before his smile turns into a teasing one. Ace wasn't just an employee for Lucas. He was his most trusted friend. And only a few know that. For one, they don't go out together to drink but sometimes, they would sit down and share the gospel with each other.Lucas left his office at once.He did not want to make his father wait. Marcus does not come often to visit him. And even though he w

"What happened?" Lucas immediately asked her after sending the Leiths off."He's not the person I thought him to be," Danie answered.It was a lie. But it's also the truth because James was Justus but he was not the Justus that she hated.Danielle couldn't believe what she found out today. She did not need any further evidence to confirm that James was the man who raised her.She was just surprised that they were not blood-related. But if she would connect things, she was always being reminded then that she was the sole heiress of the Williams Group of Companies.It never occurred to her that the reason was that Justus was not a Williams at all."You know the consequences if you're lying to me, Dana," he looked at her intently."I know," she met his eyes.'I'm sorry, Lucas. But now that I don't know the man who I'm going against with, the more that I cannot involve you.'LUCAS knew that Dana was not telling the truth. He

"Lucas and I are okay," Danielle was talking to Esther. The latter called her to ask how she was getting along with her brother."Are you sure? Dad said he did not get to see you and that Lucas seemed bothered by something," Esther answered."I was at work that time. But don't worry, I'm really fine. As for Lucas, he does act weird these past few days," she lay on her bed as she thought of Lucas' past actions."Really? How? This is the first time that a girl called Lucas weird," Lucas' sister was both curious and amused."No, I did not mean him. His actions are. You know Lucas, he hates me to bits.""And?""He doesn't seem to hate me as much now," Danie was thinking whether to tell Esther the changes in her relationship with Lucas or not."Really?! Why? How?
