Chapter 63: Chapter 63
Lily was still confused and said, "So you're telling me that she was after you all along?"
Daniel just nodded his head and looked at the window. He didn't know if he would be alive tomorrow because he knew all those people knew his moves.
In Daniel's mind, he was already sorry to Lily for dragging her into this, but he didn't have a choice.
Daniel looked at Lily and said, "She planned this all along, and she wasn't alone."
LilyLilyLily was stunned by what Daniel said and was lost for words.
They both stayed silent and Lily could not place her feelings and said, "The reason? Was it because of?"
"You know how successful my business with your mother is?"
Lily just nodded even though she felt the pressure on her body and she couldn't calm down, and Daniel continued, "We are known for being successful, not only here but also in other countries."
"We are so happy; even both sides of our family were genuinely overjoyed, but as our wholesome happiness began to grow, there are people who envy us."
"We both know that behind our successes there are also misfortunes. Perhaps me and your mother enjoyed our life too much and ended up losing a huge amount of money because of the debt we incurred."
"That debt was paid using money from a man who was not richer than us at the time, and it turned out that with this loan, he already knew that we would need money in the future, saying that he had also experienced this,"
Daniel sighed and added, "But I don't know that the reason he gave us a loan was because he wanted to rise above us. Motion Automotive was known as one of the most famous businesses before ours."
Lily was confused about who it was, but she just listened to him as the room began to feel suspenseful and Lily's heart was beating fast, like watching a horror movie where the killer was finding his next victim.
"After he anointed us, the business began to grow again, outshining his company that he didn't like."
"He began to stay close to me, knowing all my moves and every next plan and project I would do, using the term, "you would not be where you are today without my money."
Daniel felt shivers while remembering that and held himself until he could tell his daughter, "Then that's when your mother saw that our car's brake was damaged."
"Before she left, she said, "I'll see you again." It was odd to hear, but I just smiled at her."
"I mourn for your mother. It was dreadful. For months, I was lost, I was also quiet, always at the bar, and that's where I met Ilena. I know it wasn't a few months that had passed when I replaced your mother, but I've done that for your own good."
"But as I was with her, I was happy, and I totally admit that I forgot about your mother. As days passed, I knew that she didn't have a child, but one day she was with Midzy, who was 5 years old, telling me that she was her child, but as I was blinded by love, I accepted it,"
Daniel said, "But as I was with her, I learned a lot."
"I hired someone to check on her while she was sleeping, and I was surprised that she was..."
"Ilena is Ramsey's illegitimate sister, which is why she seduced me to be a spy. I was surprised when in that short time she knew what I wanted, what I didn't want, and when I was about to lose my temper, I ignored it."
"It turned out that I had been watched by her like a creep for almost three months just to get what she wanted."
"Let the company run through her hand." As this was being said, Lily felt like she was watching some kind of mystery movie.
Lily felt shivers and said, "If this is true--dad, this is not very pleasing..."
"That's one nasty stalker."
"That was the reason why I kicked you out of the house; I saw that you were their next target, but I didn't know that after that you would be reported to me dead, so I can do nothing but regret everything."
"But I was surprised that you were here, alive. I already knew you were alive, so I made sure that all your information would be deleted from sight. They considered it a crime because of what I did, but I've done that to keep you safe."
Lily just looked at Daniel and said, "Don't think about that, dad. It's here now and I forgive you."
Daniel went in to hug Lily with all of the guilt he felt after all those years, and as they were hugging, Daniel suddenly felt his dead wife's presence and smiled and said, "Remember that I don't want to allow you to visit your mother as a respect for your new mother? I've done that to not push his buttons."
"But do you want to visit her now?" Daniel got a piece of paper in his pocket and gave Lily the paper with the address where his wake was buried.
Lily just smiled and said, "Thank you, dad."
They were both silent with a faint smile on their faces, and Lily just looked at the piece of paper and said, "Thank you for telling me everything. Now that I know everything. Please don't be guilty about it, because I understand."
"Let's go, and let's eat, dad. I'm hungry too."
Lily said while wiping her tears, and Daniel stopped her by holding her hand and guiding her to sit down.
Daniel just looked at Lily, and he lifted his shirt and got the envelope that was stuck in his pants and said, "This is a document that says you are the heir of the company. I won't let it just go and be on her palm, because your mother worked hard for it."
Lily was shocked and said, "I don't know what to feel...."
Daniel said, "Please, as I decided to handle it sooner, so when the time has come for me to join your mother, you will be ready."
"Liam will guide you..."
"But don't trust him because he's the son of the man who's behind all of this."
"The man who's behind Motion Automotive, and that man was named Ramsey Dawnson."
