Through Luis, it has come to light someone was behind Lily's sudden deteriorating health. To save her, they run a blood test to identify what drug was injected into her to give such a reaction. After running multiple tests, they identified the medication that had triggered the deterioration. An intervention was quickly initiated. Lily who appeared to still be in a coma began to stabilize. Now they just have to wait for her to wake up. Derrick went to see her. He did look terrible for not having to take care of himself for days. Since Lily was admitted, he had been by her side all through. His beard had grown, and his hair was messy. Although Luis has been doing him a favour by bringing him fresh clothes to change into, he did not look his usual best. He has also not had proper sleep for days. Aside from the bags under his eyes, they are also swollen from crying. Rose walked into the room, she was just keeping Derrick company and making sure he was eating as Luis went around trying t
Rose convinces Derrick to go home, freshen up and rest for a while with a promise to call if anything comes up. Luis has also found the nurse behind Lily's sudden health deterioration. The doctors have also been able to stabilize her condition.Marcus arrived with Derrick at the apartment and they both got down and went inside the house. Marcus waited in the living room and Derrick went upstairs to his bedroom. The housemaid who had opened the door could not recognize Derrick. "What happened to him?" was the question on her mind. She went to the kitchen to gossip with the other house servants. Derrick went straight to the washroom, and he froze when he saw his reflection in the mirror. He stared at himself for a while wondering when he had grown such bushy facial hair. He opened the cabinet, brought out a shave stick and began shaving his facial hair. He took a shower after, dressed up and neatly combed his hair. He returned to the bedroom and sat on the bed for a while. After sta
"I will tell you everything. Please, promise me you will protect me from them," she pleaded "Protect you from who?" Luis questioned turning to look at her with his hand on the doorknob.She mouthed the word "The Black Dragon" Luis thought about her request for a while and gave her a nod. He gestured to her to sit, and she obliged. "Now tell me everything you know," Luis requested "It was not really about the money as my life and that of my sister were threatened" she said "I don't know the lady in question. My husband was into that kind of business. That is why they came to find me. They just asked me to inject her with the medication they gave me" she added"Hmm, I see. Did they come to your house, or did they meet you somewhere?" Luis questioned "I was taken from my house at dawn. I was sleeping. Next, I felt a hand and a cloth covering my mouth. I woke up in what looked like a basement. That is where they instructed me on what to do. I returned to my house the same way" she re
Derrick sat next to Lily on the newly provided seat chatting with Lily who was still in a coma. Lily squeezed his hand as soon as his tears touched the back of her hand. He quickly called for a doctor A doctor and a nurse walked into the room. The doctor checked Lily and smiled. He turned to face Derrick "Her healing had progressed tremendously. She will open her eyes soon" The doctor gave him the good news and he left with the nurse. Derrick was smiling ear to ear "Lily, thank you for not leaving me and fighting to stay with me. I promise you; I will not let anyone harm you again" he said happily Lily opened her eyes, but she wore an expressionless look on her face. Derrick, seeing her eyes were open, called out to her "Lily! Lily, can you hear me?" Lily looked at him but was still expressionless. He called out to the doctor again who returned quickly to the ward and was shocked she had opened her eyes already.The doctor checked her again and spoke "Hello" he said but Lily on
Lily had woken up from her coma but unfortunately could not remember anything. Now they need to run a test on her to understand her situation better. Derrick had joyfully shared the news of Lily waking up with Luis but skipped the details about her memory loss. Luis has information from the interrogation, which has raised some questions which he intends to investigate. He had entered Rose's room to inform her of Lily waking up and decided to enjoy a moment with her. Rose opened her eyes slowly. She lay on the bed for a while and decided to turn but realized there was a hand on her waist and someone breathing studly behind her neck. She remembered she was in Luis's room and quickly recalled the night's event that led to her sleeping in Luis's room. Not wanting to wake him, she gently tried to free herself from his grip, but he held her tighter anytime she moved. She resigned to staying in bed for a while and decided to face up on the bed. She slowly turned and decided to catch a glim
Luis and Rose are having problems in their relationship as Rose can't stop seeing Luis as her boss. Luis is unhappy about this as Rose is distancing herself from him. It makes him feel he is still taking advantage of her. They both arrived at the hospital with Luis ignoring her. Derrick from the doctor's office came to Luis and shared the good news from the doctor with him "The results came out good. Lily is recovering. She is out of danger now." He announced excitedly "That is great news to hear. You finally get to take your little girl home" Luis said forcing a smile "Yeah" Derrick replied but remembered something, and the smile vanished from her face "She doesn't know who I am," he announced sadly "What do you mean?" asked Luis 'She lost her memory," Derrick informed him "What!" Luis exclaimed; Rose turned to look in the two gentlemen's direction "Yeah, she can't remember anything," Derrick said "We can see her though" he addedThey both got up and Derrick was surprised Ro
Lily had finally been discharged from the hospital. Luis stayed with her as Derrick did the paperwork. She has still not gained her memory, but she has recovered from the dream state. She naturally warmed up to Derrick since he was with her all through. "You are finally going home," Luis broke the silence "Yes" Lily responded "Thank you for coming" she added in appreciationBefore Luis could respond, Derrick walked in and announced; "We are good to go" Lily wanted to get out of the hospital bed but Derrick stopped her and carried her instead. Luis followed teasing them by whistling the wedding match.Lily blushed and hid her face on Derrick's chest. They all exited the hospital and using Luis's car drove to Derrick's apartment. Derrick's apartment Luis drove into the compound and parked in front of the garage. They all got out of the car and Derrick carried Lily even though she insisted on walking. They entered the house and he helped Lily sit on the sofa and instructed one of
"Get some rest, I will make you some tea," he said and got up to leave. He stood there for a while and he bent over and kissed her lips."This is the last time he will be able to be that with her, be this close to her and be that affectionate with her. Starting now, things will be different," He thought to himself as he walked out of Rose's room. As soon as Luis left, she broke down tears beating her pillow as if the pillow offended her. "She was sure she didn't want to be with him so why did it hurt so much that he broke off their engagement?" These thoughts ran through her mind as she cried. Luis was standing in front of her door, so he could hear her crying. His heart ached to hear her cry like that. He wished he could go back in there and pull her into his arms and tell her everything would be okay "I don't love her. I was only taking responsibility for my actions. So why does it hurt we broke up?" He thought and walked hurriedly into his study not wanting to hear her cry. In
