Dereck sighed and continued, "Isabella insisted that you be given a chance. She believes there's more to you than meets the eye."
Isabella finally looked up, and her eyes met mine. There was a mix of determination and a hint of regret in her gaze.
I nodded appreciatively at Isabella, silently thanking her for vouching for me. Dereck observed our interaction with a discerning gaze.
"Lucas Datkheart, I've heard from Isabella that you have a way to save my eldest daughter who has been coma state for 5 years but think why should I believe in you? Give me one reason."Dereck questioned, his tone measured.
'This is it! This is the moment I have been waiting for. I can't let this chance go by!' I exclaim inside.
