The next morning, at the Quinton Mansion, Peter and Lea Quinton were having their breakfast, deliciously prepared by Chef Marcel. Owen joined the dining table shortly after. Peter and Lea allowed Owen to sleep in, considering the events of the night before that Owen and everyone at SB café went through.  “Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. Quinton.” Owen greeted as he took his seat.  “Good morning, Owen. I’m so glad you and everyone were unharmed after what happened last night.” Lea replied with concern.  “When you texted me, Lea and I were so shocked. Good thing Lea got me to call Chief Martin quickly so that there were no fatal casualties. I’ll have to check in on those wounded last night and make sure they are ok.” Peter added.  Owen cleared his throat at Peter’s mentioning of Chief Martin; and Peter had a surprised reaction. ‘Why did Owen clear his throat at my statement? Does he know something that I don’t?’ Peter thought to himself.&

Inside the Phoenix Cabin, Charles was having breakfast in the kitchen with Esther. Still healing up from his bullet wound suffered at the hands of Preston King, Charles's upper body mobility was still somewhat hindered. Esther, his housekeeper and girlfriend, specifically prepared meals that only require one arm to eat. On this particular morning, Esther prepared porridge for Charles. Dr. Crestwell recommended meals that were light on the digestive system while Charles recovers from his bullet wound. "Thanks for the porridge, Esther." Charles said with gratitude and compliments. He then picked up the empty bowl and passed it to Esther, before heading to the living room to check on the news about the Quinton Hotel attack the night before. Esther quickly cleared the dining table and the kitchen; she was about to join Charles in the living room when the doorbell rang. Walking towards the digital peephole, it turns out that Dr. Crestwell was standing at the door.

Back at the Phoenix Cabin, Esther took the drone Ivy flew over to their place to do drone patrol, making sure there was no suspicious activity around the compound before deeming it safe for Dr. Crestwell to drive off. Dr. Crestwell shook hands with Charles and Esther before taking his leave. After making sure Dr. Crestwell left the Phoenix Cabin safely, both Charles and Esther closed all the curtains in the compound to eliminate any chance of outsiders trying to peep in. In addition, Charles decided to have his online meeting with Peter Quinton in the living room, using the big television screen. Within ten minutes, the connection was established. Peter was back in his study at the Quinton Mansion after visiting the wounded Quinton Hotel staff earlier in the morning. Charles and Esther were seated at the sofa of the living room. "Hi, Mr. Quinton." Charles and Esther greeted Peter, "Hi, Charles. Hi, Esther. It's so good to see you both together." Peter replied with a smile, causing

The Phoenix Mafia and Bowen assembled in the garage of the Phoenix Cabin. Everyone took their seats around the meeting table, with an additional seat prepared just for Bowen. “Let’s get straight to it. We have a lot to talk about and we don’t have any time left.” Charles began the meeting. “Firstly, Bowen, allow me to officially welcome you to the team. Thanks for rescuing Nathan and Victoria from the assailants just now.” “Thank you, boss. I’m honoured to be a part of this wonderful team. I hope that I can be of assistance to everyone moving forward. We have a puppet master to dethrone, after all.” Bowen replied. “We’ll get there soon enough. Right now, however, I need everyone to focus. Brother Derek has informed me about your self-imposed tasks. How is progress so far?” Charles asked around the table. “Boss, Yvonne, Roland and I are preparing to meet up with Jill Rayne, the person responsible for the shoddy materials used for the new mall construction. Apparently, Yvonne used t

Peter and Lea were the first to return to the Quinton Mansion with Hector. Derek, Amanda, Chloe and Madison joined them shortly after. They assembled at the living room. It would be big enough to house everyone that will arrive at the Quinton Mansion. The first ones to arrive were Desmond, Jocelyn, Wayne and Kimberly with their children Dylan, Tiffany and Kimberly’s newborn son Terrence. Lea made special seating arrangements for Kimberly considering she was just discharged from the hospital after giving birth to Terrence. The next group to arrive were the staff at SB Cafe. Steph made the decision to close the café early after Chloe called her father Raymond. Everyone and Nick and Joanne Lopez left Quinton Hotel together and arrived at the Quinton Mansion. Alex Evans arrived with his security last. Alex deployed his security gang to patrol the area around the Quinton Mansion before entering the living room to join everyone. To everyone’s surprise, Dave, Lois and Mason Smith also ar
