Lilly entered their room and she saw her husband lying on the bed, pressing his phone. She stayed beside him and she placed her head on his chest.
"Are you okay?" He wrapped his right around her and his other hand was holding the phone.
"Don't do anything stupid. Please." She sighed and she looked at him.
She was looking really sad and disappointed. She knew her husband quite well and how he behaved.
"Don't you worry. Tomorrow is my inauguration, nothing stupid will happen. I promise you." He assured her confidently.
She sighed and she kissed his chest. "I hope your words come through."
"Lilly? Why are you so worried?" He gave her a convincing face.
"I wish you could be in my shoes for one day. You might probably understand why I am this worried." She gave a more sad face.
"What do you mean?" He squeezed his face and he sounded a little angry.
"I always have this thought, what of this is the last time I speak to him? What if this is the last time I speak with him?" She had tears in her eyes.
"What are you saying?" He was feeling bad and he felt a little annoyed. "None of that stuff will ever happen."
"I hope I could tell myself that but it is not just possible. Anything can happen tomorrow, and in a fit of anger, you can do anything stupid." The tears dropped from eyes to eyes.
"Lilly?!" He started panting and he stared at her with annoyance.
He became more angry and he stood from the bed. He frowned his face and he was about leaving.
"Don't forget you have a child I am carrying!" She screamed which made him pause. "Please Drake."
He frowned even more and he left the room in annoyance.
He was getting more annoyed as he walked further. Nothing wrong could happen to him and he was going to get the position no matter what.
He got a call from Phillip and he picked it immediately.
"Hello."
"Hello sir." He sounded very tensed.
"Are you sure you are okay?" Drake was starting to feel scared.
"Sorry sir but I have a question to ask." He sounded more tensed.
"What's going on?"
"Do you have any key that was given to you?"
"Yes?"
"Sir!" He screamed very loud. "That is the key and the place is Backville street."
"Why are you just telling me this now?!" He squeezed his face and he was feeling tensed.
"I am so sorry sir. I just made a new discovery and you were definitely given the right key."
"I'll call you back." He cut the call.
He began to tremble and his face was completely pale. He looked like he was going to die. He kept wandering around and he didn't even know what he was doing again. He took his keys and he went to the room where the keys were.
He rushed there and he was panicking and staggering. He destroyed the room in a fit of range and he was looking for the key.
"What are you doing?!" She glared at him and tears dropped from her eyes.
"Where is it? Where is it?!" He continued chanting and destroying everything.
He finally saw the key and he had a sigh of relief. He smiled like a mad person and he acted like a psycho. His hair was so messed up and his first five buttons were undone and he looked tattered.
He left the place without saying a word to Lilly. Lilly looked at Drake and she poured tears of water. Her fear was starting to come true. She wished she could just go back in time and change everything.
Drake entered his car and he wasn't even calm at all. He started driving and he drove off the speed limit. He wasn't even careful and he just did as he felt.
He drove as fast as he could. As he was driving, a huge truck was coming at his front and it was almost hitting him. He turned the car wheel to the right and he continued driving fast. He wasn't in the right state and he could do anything right now.
He reached the place on less than thirty minutes. He would normally take more than one hour but he didn't obey traffic rules and he drove off the speed limit.
He parked his car and just like Arizona had said two days ago, it was just a wall. He didn't see any key point. He was panicking and he hoped Darien had not been here.
He found the key point and he couldn't express his joy. He carefully opened it and he had a huge smile on his face. His biggest task was about to be accomplished.
He opened it widely and he saw a very big room. The lights were off but he could see how big it was.
He looked for the switch and he finally found it. He was happy and also scared. He closed his eyes and he turned the light.
He smiled brightly and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Oh no! It's all gone!" Drake couldn't close his mouth.
The large room was completely empty. Not even a dust or a single file. Not even one dollar talk less of billions of dollars.
"It's all gone!" He squeezed his hands together.
