Bryan queried.With a heavy sigh, Rolland nodded in response. "Thank you, Bryan, I'm glad I had the chance to talk things through with you. I'll be back here tomorrow to check up on you." Rolland said, rising from his seat to leave."Sir, I can't thank you enough. Thanks for coming through for me." Bryan stated, feeling grateful.Rolland smiled and left. He couldn't shake off the excitement he felt, gradually reuniting with his son.When he got into his car, he thought, "Should I let Claudia know about Bryan's whereabouts?

After a brief discussion with the doctor, Claudia requested to go home.

We will have to move you to another room." The doctor implied.Claudia refused and stood her ground on going home. "Doctor, I'm good, I just want to go home please," Claudia demanded, her eyes fixated on the doctor."Are you sure honey?" Mr. Markson asked his wife Claudia. "Yes, I want to go home." She responded.The doctor had no choice but to grant her request. "Alright then, if you insist. But don't forget to return for a check-up," the doctor reminded as he exited the emergency room."Mom, why don't you spend the night here and be discharged tomorrow?"

Mr. Markson left the hospital room as he walked past Daniel without uttering another word. Daniel thought to himself, his face contorted in anger as he gazed at Mr. Markson, "You've got to be kidding me if you think I came here to visit you guys. I'm only here to ensure I take my wife back home with me.""Daniel, please have a seat, Laura said, staring at her husband Daniel. Daniel shrugged, "No, my dear, I will soon be taking my leave. Can I see the doctor? I want to settle the hospital bill." He requested"Don't worry about that Daniel, my husband will take care of that," Claudia interjected.I
He couldn't find the courage to tell Laura about the agreement he made with Daniel Edward, which ultimately caused his family's downfall and suffering.Mr. Markson's expression was so troubling that Laura felt compelled to ask if something else was bothering him."Dad, is there something else on your mind? You seem lost, and I'm starting to think you're keeping something from me," Laura confronted her dad with a serious look.With his voice shaking, Mr. Markson dismissed it. "No, my dear, I'm fine. Let's go check on your Mom," he suggested, getting out of the car.Without hesitation, Laura agreed, "Yes, let's."As they returned to the hospital, Laura informed her dad that Daniel was on his way, but Mr. Markson didn't seem pleased."She invited him here? They must be really getting along. That manipulative jerk!" Mr. Markson thought, clenching his fist.Mr. Markson disliked Daniel Edward coming to the hospital because they never got along.

Laura picked up the phone call immediately. "Hello, Daniel." She answered, her voice tense."Hey Laura, I'm just coming back from the company, are you still at your parents' house?" Daniel inquired, taking off his suit. Laura went ahead to tell him that she was at the hospital with her dad. "My Mom had a cardiac arrest and we are at the hospital right now." She explained worriedly."What happened? She sounded just fine this morning." Daniel piqued. With a nod, Laura answered, "We were having a conversation in the living room about Bryan and suddenly, she began to act strange and fell to the floor. With the help of my dad who arrived immediately, we were able to rush her to the hospital." Laura stated, exhaling deeply.Feigning to care, Daniel asked, "How is she doing right now?" "She's still in the emergency room but she's awake," Laura answered. "Alright, I'm coming to the hospital right now," Daniel revealed.

Stunned, his eyes widened in shock, "What?" Mr. Markson exclaimed, quickly climbing down from his car as they both rushed into the house.Swiftly, he carried Claudia in his arms and took her into the car. "Get in!" He shouted, gesturing with his hand to Laura as she looked confused and shocked.Mr. Markson kicked the car immediately and took off, heading straight to the hospital. "Mom, wake up!" Laura kept calling out to Claudia, stroking her shoulder. Claudia was already unconscious and didn't move a finger."Laura, what happened?" Mr. Markson asked, speeding up.

Laura was getting ready to leave the mansion, and Daniel was too. "I'm leaving, Daniel," Laura said, picking up her handbag and preparing to exit the room.
