Daniella heard him well, yet she was at a loss for words. She was still in excruciating pain and was on the verge of collapsing if she opened her lips to speak. “You lied to me," she stated after gathering all her bravery and power for a few moments.
"I'm sorry I didn't inform you immediately. As you can see, I'm awaiting the appropriate moment." He explained, but she shook her head as if disagreeing with him. He should have told her everything about his first family, but he made the mistake of assuming Veronica was his deceased girlfriend.
"When is the appropriate moment, Marcus?" She inquired in a tone that said he was a liar from the start. She refused to accept that the same individual had been let to do harm a second time. It was quite offensive that she allowed him to injure her again! She yanked herself free from his tight hold angrily. “Tell me, was your declaration of love for me also a lie?"
"I never lied to you, Dani, about my emotions for you. Indeed, I intend to”
He attempted to explain but was cut off before he could continue when she smacked him extremely hard. He was anticipating another slap following the first one, as it was her custom to smack both of his faces when she was enraged, but she didn't do so this time. The agony of being stuck in the crotch by a flying groin kick was enough to cause him to collapse. His stomach churned so violently that he felt compelled to vomit. "Dani...," he pleaded for her assistance. If the lady continued to kick him in the crotch, he wasn't sure he'd be able to conceive another child in the future, because this wasn’t the first time Daniella had done so.
"You're so opportunistic, Marcus! Leave and never show your face to me again!" Her entire body trembled with rage, and she wished she could claw his eyes and slit his eyeballs.
"Dani, please allow me to explain." As he stated.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
"Exit! Immediately!" She screamed so loudly that her voice may have been heard below. "They died,” he said in hushed tones that sounded like a whisper.
"Who is no longer alive?" She enquired
"My first wife and Ariana, our daughter." He kept it brief to spare Daniella the gory details of how Veronica and Ariana perished as a result of the atrocity.

Daniella smiled when Marcus reassured her, as that was just what she required of him. "I hope this does not offend you, but how did they die?" she inquired.
"They were assassinated...right before my eyes." he tightened his teeth as he recalled that day. There were times when time could never cure a wound, and this was one of them.
Murdered? My God, how terrible it must have been for the mom and her daughter! Her blood became cold towards the killer, who was callous and uncaring. "When?" It was perplexing that someone could murder an innocent youngster!
"It happened on her first birthday,” he said with a slight break in his voice. Marcus clenched his teeth as images of their deaths rushed through his mind. They were so pleased one minute and then so unhappy and anguished the next!
