Lola went to buy snacks for her children after leaving the mansion. Seeing their Mommy coming back unharmed, the children were thrilled. "Mommy, did the bad guy recognize you?"
"Nope."
"Told you that! My makeup skills are the best. No one will recognize you," Mia sounded quite proud. Lola couldn't help but smile at her baby girl, "Mia is the best!" "Mommy, did you buy these snacks for me?" Monna's eyes were lit up as she saw the paper bag in Lola's hand.
"Yeah! And they are all of your favorite." Lola handed the bag to her smallest daughter before she turned to Mia, "Mia, would you help mommy clean the makeup off?"
"No problem!"

Chase was staring at the location on his phone, eyes dark. "Mr. Dalton, I just got the address of the hacker. Do you want to check it out?" Paul walked into Chase's room joyfully.
"Sure," Chase took the piece of paper from his assistant. His face went grim as he compared the two addresses. Madam Dussa's address and the hacker's address were the same. Chase's hand crumbled the paper as his eyes darkened. Was this woman toying with him?
"Paul, I need you to prepare my car for me right now."
"Yes, Mr. Dalton."
The look on Chase's face was extremely scary. None of them could pluck the courage to defy or question his order. Yet all of them realized instantly that woman must be in trouble.

20 minutes later, a shiny Maybach braked at Lola's neighbourhood. Chase got off the car, marching toward one of the apartments in rage. Paul followed up, clutching his phone. When Chase told him to knock on the door, Paul was still a bit confused, but he did as his boss said.

Lola was eating ice cream on the couch at the moment. The rapping of the door made her stop, sliding the spoon back to the bowl. She didn't know why but the sound somehow unnerved her. Who could this be? She just came back from abroad a couple of days ago. She didn't even have any connections in this country anymore. That was why she didn't expect a single visitor. The knock on the door was getting more and more impatient. Lola slid on her slippers and padded toward it, pushing it open. And she saw Chase's face. He looked like he wanted to kill someone.
"I knew it!" The man bellowed.
