Laura Mo overbearingly walked into the room Daniella was in, it was still the room where Daniella argued with her father earlier so the place was a mess that the police officers who went in with her had to arranged the table and chairs laying on the floor upside down before they forced Daniella up from the ground and push her down to sit. Daniella tried to struggle but after realizing she didn't have a chance, she menacingly glared at the woman in front of her.
"Who are you !? What do you want from me?" Daniella roared at the woman standing straight across her.
Laura Mo crossed her arms, she stood straight studying the young lady with an ugly expression on her delicate face. She thought this delicate young lady with a rabid expression instigated the death of her granddaughter and hurt her son-in-law, Daniel, and grandson, Luangmin. And she could not help but feel livid towards the girl.
"The apple really does not fall far from its tree." Laura Mo commented raising one eyebrow. Although she does not socialize that much, when she was in her teenage life she used to be more or less a gangster, because she had done so many troubles, his father completely stripped her off of her inheritance for years.
Thankfully, she married a good man and changed when she got pregnant with Mo Laotian and decided to be a good wife to her husband and mother to her son. She stayed home her whole married life as a housewife that presently, almost everyone had forgotten her face.
"I don't want to talk to someone I don't know." Daniella arrogantly announced also crossing her arms. Clearly, she doesn't look like she was regretting what she did even though she's already in prison and no possibility of going out. She still believes what she did was right.
Observing her attitude, Laura Mo signaled the two police officer at Daniella sides. They immediately nodded and forcefully grab Daniella's arms pulling her up to stand. Almost immediately Laura Mo's eyes looked like she was about to kill, Daniella felt it and panicked as the woman stepped close to her.
"l-let go of me. You will not get away with this." Daniella warns.
"Oh, believe me, I will. I'm not an amateur like you. I plan ahead and make sure everything is according to the plan. I make sure whether the person I'm offending is a mountain or a small hill. If it is, I will carefully and diligently learn my enemy's weakness before slowly making revenge and not fail as you did. " Laura forcefully grip Daniella's face as she said this before throwing it in disgust.
It's a shame such a beautiful face had such a rotten personality.
" Right now, I really want to slice your face but I'll let Xiao Lao do it. I'm just here to see the woman who killed my granddaughter." Laura took the liberty to explain at the confused Daniell before she started walking towards the door. After Daniella heard what was told to her, she immediately realized she was Laura Mo.
" A-Are you Mrs. Mo!?" She stuttered as she struggled against the tight grip of the police officers.
" And what of it?"
" You are! Please, believe me! D-Daniel! He's all deceiving you! He is not what he seems he was, if it's not for me you'll all be taking in a bastard. Mo Laotian is not the father of that child. " Daniella desperately, his expression grimace in disgust at the mention of the child.
Up until this moment, she still believed that there was no longer a baby, she did not expect that Daniel was pregnant with twins.
"I thought you're smart. You think my son is stupid enough to claim responsibility for a child without confirming the second he discovered he had one with Daniel!?" Mrs. Mo taunted. The air in the room had suddenly become frigid. Dark air surrounded her that even the two police officers felt uncomfortable staying in the room.
The story of Daniel and Laotian, of how they met and end up together was revealed by Hanlu to them.
The whole family now already know what had happened. Daniella had become a great contribution to the couple because if it was not for her, Daniel and Laotian probably would not have end up together. For that Laura was thankful enough, but that will not stop her from hating her.
" You think my family is easily deceived!? You think just by showing us a couple of pictures and videos, it would be enough for us to believe!? Honey, aren't you underestimating my Mo family? You believe that by hiding your disgusting personality you would be able to make my son fall for you and be part of the Mos!?"
* Laughs * "So naive. Honey, You reap what you sow. Now, you cannot escape this. You will never be. Sullens or the Hymlyns would not be able to save you." Laura declared with a sinister laugh. She watched Daniella's being restless. Her eyes as if finding something she could counter at the words revealed to her but there was none.
" But let us say you successfully deceived my son, you still won't be able to pass through me. And if there's a chance for you to deceive me, there still Xiao Luu," Mr. and Mrs. Mo are desperate for grandchildren but it does not mean they'll accept just anyone as their daughter-in-law or son-in-law.
Even if the woman or man they chose ended up as a gold digger or has ill intentions, they will not be able to stay in the Mo family.
If Daniel was like that, he would have been kicked out of the mansion long ago leaving behind Luangmin and Luangmie with them. And in the first place if Daniel had an ill intention, Hanlu would have never allowed the two to get married since the Alpha had a talent for sniffing off fakes.
"I-I'm not underestimating your family madam. Please believe me." Daniella desperately cried, her mind clouded with the same lie she made herself believe. If you did not know the truth, you would think she was just wrongly accused.
In reality, Daniella was genuinely telling the truth. The truth she indeed chose to believe.
Mrs. Mo just shook her head, she feels like talking to a woman who's deluded by hate and jealousy is worthless. Laura Mo marched out of the room and upon seeing her husband, she instantly got back to her usual self.
Daniella on the other hand, being left behind again, she fell on the floor and bawled. She wondered why no one would believe her? She was only telling the truth.
The hole in her heart was too deep that she fell, deeper and deeper in the pit of hatred.
" How was it? " Elder Mo asked.
" It's pointless hating on someone like her, it will only waste our time and energy. I feel bitter and enraged at what she did, but we cannot do anything about it now. Let's just think of Luangmie as her twins' guardian angel from above." Laura Mo smiled and hugged her husband. When you learn to accept things, it will truly make you feel a hundred times better.
" Hmmm, more importantly, we have to focus on taking care of Luangmin and Daniel now that he is sick. Let Xiao Lao handle this matter, for now." Elder Mo agreed. For him, now that the woman was captured, he will let Laotian deal with her for now, unless his son said otherwise.
" Hmmm Okay! Where is that brat Hanlu!? " Laura agreed and then later asked after realizing Hanlu was not around.
" He was talking to that Omega inspector a while ago. " Elder Mo replied looking around as well.
" That brat always finds ways to flirt around!" Laura frowned and then pointed at the bodyguards who Hanlu ordered to come along with them. " One of you. Can you find your master and tell him I'm done? I want to go home." Mrs. Mo requested before leaning her head to her husband's comforting shoulders.
"Were you done!?" Just as one of the guards was about to find Hanlu, the Alpha arrived with his usual playful expression. Mrs. Mo has a sharp nose and immediately smelled the pheromones of a dominant Omega on his body.
"When will you stop playing and marry!?"
"Wait! I'm just asking if you're done. Why did it suddenly come to the topic of me marrying!?" Hanlu defended moving a few steps away from his parents. His arms formed into a cross sign as if the topic was something unholy.
"* sigh * never mind let's just go home now." Laura sighs waving her hands as she turns. She suddenly got tired knowing that her son would only make excuses again and again, And at the end of the day, he'll still end up doing what he wants.
"Yeah, I think we should." Hanlu immediately replied, relieved that his mother gave up before any argument starts.

Laotian held Luangmin on his arms as he feeds him his milk formula from the bottle. It has been a day since Daniel had fallen sick and up till now, he has not woken up.
Because of this, he stayed home and took care of him and their son. Also, he wanted to be there when Daniel wakes up.
" You have to be strong for mommy." Laotian whispered lulling the baby while he feeds. As the Alpha continues, Daniel finally woke up calling up the name of the man not far from where he was laying. The man was holding a baby and carefully swaying. Daniel smiled seeing the Alpha with their son.
"Stay there. How are you feeling?" As soon as Laotian heard the Omega's small voice, he immediately walked towards him and sat at the side of the bed. He finally felt relieved that Daniel had finally woken up.
"I feel a little sluggish but I'm fine. What happened!?" Daniel asked holding the sleeping Luangmin's foot.
"You had a panic attack and started getting high fever before fainting," Laotian explained caressing Daniel's cheeks.
"I'm sorry. I made you worry again." Daniel apologized. He remembered what had happened. Why he had a panic attack to the point of having a fever and fainting.
"Just don't do it again," Laotian replied softly, almost begging. The incident made him so worried, it almost felt like the situation was a matter of life and death.
Laotian stared at Daniel before laying Luangmin next to him which the Omega gladly made space. As Daniel looked at his son, he gently rubbed Luangmin's chubby cheeks and recalled what Daniella had told him.
"Laotian did you know?" he almost whispered while chewing on his lips. There was silence for a couple of seconds before Laotian nodded, figuring out what his wife meant to ask.
"hmmm, " There was no point in hiding it now. He only hid it from Daniel because knowing the death of their daughter that time was enough for him to break. How much more when he discovered it was his twin sister's doing. Laotian hated seeing Daniel in pain, whether physically or emotionally. And he absolutely does not want to see the state Daniel had become yesterday, it's exactly the situation he wished to avoid.
" I-I'm sorry, I was weak. That's why you hid it from me. You must've have felt so much pain and hatred. I'm sorry Laotian. " Daniel cried blaming himself. He knew the Alpha had kept it from him so that he wouldn't get hurt. Laotian had protected him so greatly that he feels like he doesn't deserve it. He loves Laotian so much but it pains him to know that the Alpha had shielded him from all the pain the has to give, taking it to himself instead of them facing it together.
" It wasn't your fault. Please don't cry. I don't like you crying. You are strong, you are strong enough to choose to move on. It's not bad to break sometimes. You can treat all this pain as an experience and be stronger in the future. " The Alpha cheered catching the falling tears from the Omega's bottom lashes.
" I-In the future I'll be strong Laotian and I'll be the one protecting you and Minmin. " Daniel promised, this event will remain in his mind and the lesson it brings will forever guide him to make better choices in life.
