The next morning, Ryan was the first to wake, as he propped his eyes wide opened. His head was banging badly, his body was hurt also, what had happened to him last night? He wondered as he made to stand up, he felt something pressing on him and the hot breath fanning on him. "Shannon!" His heart raced wildly just at the mention of her name. She was back? He thought as she suddenly recalled her going missing yesterday or was he just hallucinating? He thought. He touched her to feel she was real and not kind of imagination, he gently placed her on the bed and then he stood up ,his body aching badly as he dragged his feet to the restroom. He came out few minutes time, all washed and was looking clean, he was at least feeling better than before.

Shannon gasped as she stared at him keenly, narrowing her gaze at him as she pinched the bridge of her nose. "What do you say? " She wanted to be sure that she had actually heard the actual words. "Are you premenstrual?" He asked again like there was nothing wrong in what he'd had just asked, he casted her a quick glance as he takes off his shirt. Shannon should have taken the hint and left as she saw him taking off his shirt, but she was just to damn upset and stubborn that she couldn't leave without putting a fight. "What does my anger has to do with being premenstrual?" She fired at him, she never expected him to be the type of man that classified women anger as a result of their hormones.

When Ryan got to her destination, he dropped her off, the his bodyguard continued as he drove to the location Ryan had mentioned. When they arrived, Ryan walked inside the building and straight inside the ward, his Step mother and brother was already there waiting outside. He casted them a Stern glare, "What happened to him?"

"Forgive me, Ryan!" She apologized as she bowed her head. Ryan was furious as he grabbed her by the jaw, "Don't you dare call me that woman, you seems to have forgotten your position in the house" He was mad and seething with anger.

Grand pa Lancaster stood up after everyone has gone out, he sighed as he shifted the hospital uniform they'd had worn him. It was lighter and he'd could catch cold easily. He'd had watched all those drama that was displayed right in front of him and he'd was lying there trying to suppress the laughter that was about escaping his lips. He just can't wait for two days in over so he can at least return back home. ** Shannon held with her , her resignation letter in her hands, she'd had thought of submitting that earlier because when she she came, Ryan wasn't yet on seat, that was very unusual of him.
