Elizabeth was released from jail after getting help from someone. He was nicknamed as Shadow because he was trained in Vietnam as a professional killer. He was someone sent by Ken to help his daughter getting out of jail safely. He won't ever put his daughter in the danger zone.
Ken Li, CEO of HK Group, was a fugitive in Vietnam but was rescued by someone from the ASJ. ASJ was another business that HK group worked with for many years. Since they had strong business ties, they helped each other in times of hardships. He was safe from the eyes of HS Group and H&H corporation for now.
Ever since his wife leaked the illegal information, he's been on a run. After successfully framing John, one of HK Group employees, he illegally entered Vietnam after getting help from his close friends. Without her daughter knowing the real killer behind her mother's death, he successfully manipulated her daughter into shooting Daniel.
Daniel was a man that Ken knew would be dangerous one day. As a young fellow, he was sharp and smart. Ken intentionally kept Daniel and waited for a good time to strike. He successfully lured Daniel into the trap to fall in love with his daughter.
Ken's savior was a man who was also trained in an elite school for the martial art. Although, he retired but he still kept several good ones. They were not the only ones training martial arts but was also trained in using rifles and guns. Shadow was one of his best student. He allowed Ken to use Shadow for any purpose whether to kill or murder someone. Shadow can professionally kill someone without leaving blood on hands.

Elizabeth was relaxing in the lounge of a hotel when groups of younger girls gathered around her. Elizabeth smiled and signed their autographs.
The news about her attempted murder was taken off because of lack of evidence of found. She was eventually released.
Elizabeth got up and went out the hotel, he signalled Shadow to drop her off at Daniel's place.
"Shadow, can you do me a favor?" Elizabeth asked. Shadow bowed, "Anything for you, Miss. Elizabeth." She smiled, "Follow me, you'll see." As they entered the top floor, Elizabeth walked down the hallway to Daniel's room.
"You can unlock the code, right?" Elizabeth showed the door code to Shadow, "Yes, Miss. Elizabeth." Shadow used a small machine and it automatically unlocked the door.
"Good work, Shadow. You may leave. I'll call you when I need you." Shadow bowed and left.

Daniel and Lily came back after discussing about HK Group Ken's disappearance. She showed the the video clip to Daniel which was transferred by Brian. It was clear Ken was saved by someone according to the video clip.
Daniel received a phone call from one of the security from his building.
"President Kim, an unknown person came with Elizabeth and Elizabeth entered your room. Wasn't she suppose to be in jail?" Daniel notified the security that she got released due to lack of evidence. He knew because one of his people worked for the police department.
"But, President Kim... the male who was with Elizabeth unlocked your door. Did you give the code to them?" Daniel replied no.
"Report to me about any suspicious activities. I won't be returning tonight." Daniel hung up and sighed.
Lily saw him and asked him if there's anything she can help with.
"Lily, an intruder entered my room. I asked my security to keep me updated. Where should we go tonight?" Lily blinked twice, "Who's the intruder?" Daniel sighed, "A gum. A sticky gum."
"A sticky gum? Elizabeth?" She replied. Daniel nodded but he didn't say anything else.
"So, she got released. Not surprised." Lily held onto Daniel's hand as they walked through various shops. Lily saw a dress she really liked and she dragged Daniel in there.
"How's this color? It's perfect for autumn." Lily showed him a light red dress with long sleeves which had a thicker feels to it.
"Try it on." Daniel said as he sat on the couch. When Lily was finished, she came out and Daniel was left speechless.
"Is it too ugly?" She asked. Daniel shook his head, "Miss. This one." The lady bowed and gave Daniel the red dress.
"You're so lucky to have a rich boyfriend, Miss." The lady smiled to Lily.
"Daniel, I just wanted to try not buying them. It was so expensive." Lily tried to explain to Daniel but he smiled, "I don't mind buying anything for my only girlfriend and my love." He kissed her on the lips and Lily blushed hard.

Since it was quite late, Lily called her aunt if she could go home. She looked at Daniel and asked, "Daniel, for tonight... do you want to stay at my place or do you want to stay at a hotel?" Daniel leaned closer to her and smiled, "I never knew you were so brave, Lily. Your place sounds amazing." Lily yelled in her head, "You're crazy... you're crazy... you're absolutely crazy." She never mentioned Daniel to her aunt and uncle. She cannot change her mind now.
As she got to the doorstep, her aunt opened the door. She welcomed Daniel and let them sit in the living room for a while. Daniel looked around the house and it felt very cozy.
"Is this you, Lily?" Daniel saw a baby photo of Lily. She snatched the photo away immediately, "Who told you to touch my photos?" Lily was a bit self-conscious. Daniel giggled because he thought she was very beautiful and cute at the same time.
Her aunt and uncle came down the stairs and they greeted them.
"Good evening." Daniel greeted them, "This is just silk scarves to wear during autumn and this is jasmine tea that we bought together." Daniel handed them the gift and looked at Lily.
"Wow, these are absolutely gorgeous. May I know your name, please?" Her aunt said.
"Daniel Kim. President of the HS Group."
