The car stopped in front of them and Kenzie's heart was in her mouth when she saw the familiar car.

  "Daryl…" she whispered in panic. She felt that all her efforts would go in vain if Daryl saw her with another man and it would be worse if that man was his stepbrother. She wanted to explain herself but she did not know how to put everything in a nice way.

  Harry was standing behind her holding onto the wheelchair firmly. His jaw clenched when he saw Daryl step out of the car.

  "Why are you here?" Daryl asked with lifted eyebrows while looking at Harry. Then his eyes went to his hands grabbing the handle of Kenzie's wheelchair.

  "What happened to you? I couldn't reach your phone." Daryl asked.

  "My phone broke when I tripped and fell while we were talking. I think I have sprained my leg," Kenzie explained with an awkward smile.

  "I will bring her to the hospital," Harry interrupted in his calm voice.

  "And who are you to do that?" Daryl snapped.

  Harry's forehead wrinkled and was about to say something when Kenzie suddenly interrupted, "Dad asked him to pick me up…"

  Daryl ignored her and walked towards Harry instead.

  "Since she's my employee, she's my responsibility. I will take her to the hospital myself so you just mind your own business," Daryl simply commented and without notice, Daryl carried her in his arms from the wheelchair.

  He looked at Kenzie's lady bodyguard and ordered, "You! Open the passenger seat door."

  Kimmy looked at Kenzie, asking for her permission and signal to do so. Kenzie felt she was on cloud nine and with a wide smile nodded to Kimmie.

  She then looked at Harry and said, "Can you please do me this favor? Please don't tell dad about what happened tonight. I don't want him to worry. Just tell him that I was already gone when you arrived. I will talk to him and explain everything later. I will definitely make it up to you when the time comes."

  Daryl's ears reddened in annoyance upon hearing Kenzie's last words.

  "Why do you have to make it up with him? So what if he tells your dad about what happened tonight?!" he scolded her as he placed her in the car and pulled the seatbelt to secure her.

  He gave one last glance at Harry and said, "You can go back and enjoy the party, Harry."

  "Daryl…" Harry meekly whispered but Daryl ignored him. Harry might fool everyone around him but not him because he knew about his and his mother's true colors right from the start.

  He looked at Kimmy and instructed, "You have my number right?"

  Kimmy nodded.

  "Since her mobile phone is broken, just call my number so I can call you if Kenzie needs you guys."

  Without wasting any more time, Daryl got inside the car and stepped on the gas.

  "Did you rush from the party to the office for me? I mean it's only been twenty minutes since the last time we spoke so I guess you drove like a madman because of me right?" Kenzie could not help but comment because it would usually take thirty minutes to drive from Chan's mansion to Sy Law firm building.

  "How clumsy are you that you tripped and sprained your leg?" Daryl commented, diverting the topic.

  Kenzie's mouth twitched and she rolled her eyes at him because Daryl was obviously changing the topic.

  "Denial king!" she mumbled.

  "What?!" Daryl burst.

  "Nothing Sir! I was rushing outside your office and accidentally tripped. It's not like I intentionally sprained my leg…" she replied annoyingly.

  "Why was Harry there?" Daryl enquired after a few seconds of silence. Kenzie, who heard his question, remained silent. She knew that Harry was his stepbrother since Kenzie was very vocal about how she had done her research about everything that involved him.

  His face darkened when he thought about Harry but his eyes were on the road. He could sense something fishy and he did not like seeing Harry around Kenzie. He knew that man and his mother very well, so he could tell that they were definitely up to something bad.

  He was fifteen when he lost his mother due to an accident… Not so long after his mother's death, his father came home with Karen and her son Harry to their home. His father introduced them as his stepmother and stepbrother. He was very angry because he felt that his father forgot his mother easily and did not even mourn for her.

  He still remembered how Harry's mother, Karen, treated him unfairly whenever his father was not around. He grew up in agony and hatred towards the two-faced woman Karen and her son who was also the same. Both were like saints whenever their father or anyone was around but their horns kept on growing whenever he was alone with them. He had to put up with them alone as he had no support from anyone.

  He tried to talk to his father and tell him about their true colors but his father chose to believe those two outsiders instead of him, his own son.

  That was the reason why Daryl moved out as soon as he graduated from college. He knew that he could not stand staying in the same house as those disgusting people.

  "Why was Harry there?" he asked again, this time a little louder than before.

  Kenzie gulped and replied, "My dad wanted me to meet Harry. Uhm, more like he wanted us to get to know each other. I think he and your father are in talks about an arranged marriage between me and him. But don't worry I definitely won't agree to it.

  I mean you're the only person I want so I will fight for my feelings for you. But for now, I have to oblige and see Harry once in a while or else my dad will not allow me to work at Sy Law Firm and be with you almost every day."

  Daryl did not know whether to feel happy or more alarmed after listening to Kenzie's detailed explanation. He heaved a long sigh. As if Kenzie was not enough there was now Harry adding up in the picture.

  'But why would he care about it?' his inner self scolded. Somehow he cared for Kenzie so he did not want her to end up with the wrong person like Harry.
