Leo pulled the car over after an hour. Beauty had no idea where she was until he opened the car for her.
“This way my lady” he said. Beauty walked behind him till they got to a big cruise ship that was already decorated.
She paused and shot her mouth wide open. The sailor took off his cap and bowed.
“Welcome my lady, he’s in there, waiting for you” he said.
“Good bye my lady” Leo said and drove back home. He wanted to hurry back to check on Sally.
.
“Dylan?” Beauty called out as she finally got inside the ship.
“You are late for the dinner my lady” she heard his voice behind him and turned to stare at him. He was holding two gl@$$es of champagne.
“I’m sorry Master” she walked to him and collected a gl@$$ from him.
He chuckled softly.
“This place is amazing” she said, still admiring it.
“I had it for myself when I was twenty” he revealed.
“I wonder how much is your net worth” she rolled her eyes.
“You don’t nee-d to know sweetie, it could blow your mind”
“Nice try” she scoffed. He turned and signaled the sailor then the ship started moving.
“Have you ever been on something like this?” He asked.
“Yeah, once. It was a bikini shoot for Ocean magazine” Beauty snorted.
“I see. Well, my wife exp-osed my secret about me showing up in the MBM in ten days time. What punishment do you think I give her?” He asked Beauty.
“Why don’t you make her finish a whole chicken? She must be starving” she replied. Then the sound of her rumbling stomach followed.
.
Leo got home and quickly left the car. He ran into the mansion and head to Sally’s room. It was locked.
“Sally? Are you okay?” He knocked the door softly.
“Of course, I’m fine. Why?”
“Can you… Ummm, let me in?” He asked.
“No” she replied.
“Come on, I just want to see you” he replied.
“You’ll see me tomorrow. Go to sleep” she replied from inside her room.
“Sally! Come on, please” he said.
.
Sally walked to the door and opened it. He adjusted his standing position and took a step towards her. She pushed him back.
“Why do you want to come in?”
“Just to…”
“You said you wanted to see me. Here I am, good night”
As she was about to close the door, Leo for-ced himself into her room and locked the door behind.
“Fu-ck! Leo!”
“Relax Sally, I won’t touch you, you won’t even notice my prese-nce” he said.
Sally folded her arms and watched him, walk round her room.
“I hate you Leo”
.
Beauty was on the bed with Dylan.
“We are going to see Granny tomorrow. She’s sick” Dylan said.
“What? What happened to her?” Beauty sat up.
“Relax, I se-nt the doctor to her already. But, her condition is critical. I just hope she’s well” he said. Beauty was even more worried than Dylan.
“I’m worried Dylan. We should see her once we leave from here” Beauty said.
“As you wish” he replied.
.
The next morning, as early as Five, Leo’s phone has rung over ten times. He was half na-ked on the bed with Sally.
He could hear his phone ringing but the sound seem faint.
“Leo! Wake up! Argh!” Sally gr-unted and grabbed the bedsheets. She covered herself and ran into the bathroom.
“Fu-ck! I’m supposed to pick them up” Leo quickly grabbed his clothes and phone and ran away to his own room.
He changed into something else and left the mansion to pick Beauty and Dylan from the port. He drove speedily and finally met with them.
“I’m sorry Master. My phone was…”
“It’s okay. Take me to granny’s place” Beauty said.
“Aren’t you going home first?”
“No, I can’t. I want to see her first before anyone else” she said.
“Let’s go” Dylan added.
.
They got into the car and drove to Granny’s place. Beauty was still thinking about her. She wasn’t even concerned about her Beauty. She was concerned about Granny. It took some hours before they arrived at Granny’s house.
.
Beauty alighted from the car and ran into the small house. She ran into Granny’s room and saw her lying sick on the bed. She fell on her knees and shook her head.
“Granny?” She called out as tears rolled down her eyes. She remembered all of the teaching she gave to her. She was the one that made her learn how to cook and do other house chores. She was the one that also made Dylan get married to her.
“Beauty?” Granny called out. She turned her head slowly and also saw Dylan standing behind her.
“I’m fine Beauty, don’t cry” she said and used her shaky hands to wipe the tears off Beauty’s face. Beauty felt something in her body. She actually thought her beauty was back but it wasn’t.
“Granny. Please, respond to treatment” Dylan finally spoke up, trying not to cry.
“Treatment isn’t responding to me” she said, trying to be funny. She doesn’t want them to be worried about her.
“Oh, please Granny. Save your strength” Beauty said.
She coughed and started breathing ha-rd.
“You have to leave her now. She nee-ds rest” the nurse said.
“Come on Beauty, let’s go. You heard the doctor” Dylan muttered and pulled Beauty out of Granny’s room.
“I’ll stay here with her”
“I have to take care of my dad and his properties”
“I know, that’s why I’ll stay here with granny. You can go to your father”
“Are you sure?” He asked, taking a step closer to her.
She nodded.
“It’s fine. I just want to see her get well” she replied.
“I’ll come check on you” he said.
“se-nd Sally over also. She should bring my clothes”
“Yes my lady” he nodded and left.
.
.
Tara bumped into Sally in the mansion. She was on her way to school.
“Hey Sally” she said, smiling broadly.
“Oh, hi there Tara” she replied.
“I hope you had a great time last night” Tara winked at her.
Sally swallowed ha-rd and took a step closer to Tara.
“What do you mean?” She asked. Tara flung her hair to the back and bit her lower li-ps.
“Of course, you know what I mean. My room is close to yours and… I just couldn’t sleep last night”
“You’ll keep it a secret from everyone. Please!” Sally pleaded.
“It’s okay. I don’t kizz and tell. I just hope we don’t hear another news nine months later” Tara winked and walked away.
Sally remembered she didn’t take any contraceptive pill. She ran back to her room. She really couldn’t believe that Tara overheard everything that happened.
.
.
Dylan finally got to the hospital. He just came out from the doctor’s office with his father’s report. He had less than seven days left.
He walked to his father’s room and saw that he had just finished eating. The nurse took the plates away and left the room.
“My son, you are here” he said.
“Yes father. I want to spend your last days with you” he replied with a smile on his face.
“Dylan, you just look for ways to surprise me” he father replied and adjusted his sitting position.
“I haven’t surprised you enough father. I should probably bring my wife here so you see her”
“You are married? To who? Wait, how?!!” His father was shocked.
“You know her but… You don’t know her. There are other things I’ll have to share with you before you… I’m going to miss you father”
“It’s just my time to leave this wicked world. I hope you have a happy life”
“Thanks father” he replied.
.
Tara alighted from the car after one of Dylan’s guards dropped her off.
Someone grabbed her and pushed her to a corner, with a knife on her ne-ck.
“You little br@t!”
“Jason?!” She called out.

? Chapter Thirty One?
Jason’s li-ps curved into a smile, seeing his sister’s surprise expression.
“Aren’t you gonna beg for your life?” He asked.
“Why would I? Why should I?” Tara asked in reply.
“I just want to slit your throat right now. How could you betray your own family for that wretched fool? You gave him the company papers and right now, he’s going to sell the house. Mom’s gonna marry another man. The king of all modeling industry already banned me from my job. How do I survive?”
“Okay, I’m late for cl@$$ now. Why don’t we continue this discussion later” Tara said and tried to free herself from him grip.
“Well, I’m not don’t talking to you!”
“But I’m done. Seize him!” She ordered the guard that have been behind Jason since. He hit Jason on the head and grabbed him. He fell unconscious immediately
“Take him to the mansion and look him in a room. I’ll get back to him when I’m done. You don’t nee-d to worry, I’ll talk to my brother about it” she said and left. Her guard took him into the car and did as Tara had said. He also tied him to a chair so that he won’t escape.
.
.
Dylan was sleeping in his father’s room. He turned his head and almost fell. He wasn’t feeling comfortable at all. His father had just four days left to live.
He sat up and stared at him, he was still fast asleep.
That was when his phone vibr@ted in his pocket. He answered it and placed it on his ear.
“Hello baby”
“Hi, how’s your father doing?” She asked.
“He’s fine. What about Granny?” He asked. Beauty remained silent for some seconds. She had been with granny until something happened. She was asked to leave the room.
Dylan heard her sobbing.
“Beauty? What happened?” He asked again.
“She’s not getting any better. Her condition is getting worse. I don’t want her to die” she cried.
Dylan sighed de-eply.
“I un-derstand but, she’s going to die no matter what. You just have to wait for death to come and take her. She’s old already Beauty, you should un-derstand” he said.
Beauty sniffed in and wiped the tears off her face.
“You’re right. But, seeing her in the condition is hurting me. I wish you were here with me”
“I’m with my father now but I’ll come in the evening. Besides, you are coming with me to the hospital to see him”
“You told him about us?” She asked, a little bit surprised.
“Yeah, I did”
“What about the other thing?” She asked. She didn’t want to make noise because of the doctor and nurses that were around.
“I haven’t. I’ll tell him when tomorrow. He has four days left”
“I’m really sorry. You are going to lose two dearest people”
“I have you. I’m happy” he replied. Beauty blus-hed and sighed.
“I’ll hang up now. See you later” she said and disconnected the call. She placed her phone on the table and sank into the old couch. She was waiting for Granny’s condition to get better.
The doctor walked out with a stethoscope hung on his ne-ck.
“I’m sorry miss Cora, her condition is getting worse but we are trying our best”
“Please, try all of your best to save my grandma. She mean a lot to me”.
“We are and we will” the doctor replied. Cora stood up and walked into Granny’s room. She saw the oxygen mask that was on her face. She pulled the wooden stool towards the bed and sat beside granny.
“We’ll be going on a break now but nurse Vicky is here Incase of anything. We’ll be back as soon as possible”
“Sure” Beauty replied. They nodded and left. Beauty went to the bathroom and fetch some water. She walked back to the room and clean granny’s body. She did it carefully so she won’t touch any of the medical machine.
She threw the water away and cleaned the room. She made the room warmer and more comfortable.
.
.
Jason was in a different room. He was tied to a chair. Even if it was a different room, it was still a luxurious room.
He gr-unted, trying to free himself. He heard the door open and close. He also heard the sound of footsteps.
“Who..who are you? How dare you keep me here? rele-ase me and face me man to man! I promise to beat you up!” He threatened. Tara walked to him and removed his blindfold.
“Tara?” He called out. He was surprised himself.
“Yes, Tara. It’s me! Well, you don’t nee-d to worry too much. I’m not going to kill you. You said that you have no where to go so I’m keeping you here” she replied and sat opposite him. She folded her legs and grabbed a gl@$$ of juice. She sipped from it and mo-aned with satisfaction.
“Ah! Tasty!” She said.
“Where is this place?” He asked, admiring the room.
“This is Dylan’s mansion” she replied and gently placed the gl@$$ on the table.
“Dylan’s what? Who the hell is Dylan?” He asked and laughed.
“You have no idea who he is. Well, you’ll know very soon. For now, you’ll remain a prisoner here. You are after my life, I see that”
“So, Dylan chose to spend father’s money on buying a new house”
“You are so dumb Jason. I’ll se-nd some guards to feed you something. At least, Dylan thought me to be nice to people even if they are your enemy”
“Dylan! Dylan! Dylan! What the heck is going on here?! Who is Dylan?!!” Jason yelled.
She stood up and walked to him, staring at him.
“Oh Jason, you are so… Dumb!” She said and tied his eyes again. She walked out of the room and ordered the guards to feed him something. He didn’t want the maids to go closer to him. He know the type of brother she has. He could lure them and the foolish maids would fall for him.
.
Tara would want to see her father also before he dies. That was what she was going to do tomorrow. To see her father.
.
When it was late, Dylan left the hospital and went to granny’s house. He met Sally outside.
“Hey, where is she?”
“Inside granny’s room” she replied. Dylan rushed to granny’s room and saw Beauty. She was already asleep. She sat on the stool and placed her head on the bed.
He tried not to make noise but he couldn’t. His footsteps were too loud. Beauty heard the second one and je-rked her head.
“Dylan?” She called out and ru-bbed her eyes with the back of her hands.
“Yeah, it’s me” he replied. She stood up and wrapped her arms around him.
“I missed you so much” she said in a sleepy tone. It sounded funny to him because she still wanted to sleep.
“Come now. You should sleep” he said.
“Who’s gonna stay with Granny?” She asked.
“The nurses will. That’s what they are paid for” he replied and walked her out of Granny’s room. He got to his former room and lay her on the bed.
“Dylan?” She called out again, still sleepy.
“Yes Beauty?” He replied.
“Promise me that you won’t leave me even if granny’s is gone” she said.
“I won’t. I promise” he said and covered her body. The night was pretty cold.
“I love you Dylan”
She laughed and turned to the other side of the bed. Dylan couldn’t believe his wife. He had his bath and also laid beside her. He saw the message that Tara se-nt to him about having Jason at his mansion. That wasn’t his problem. He was concerned about his father, Granny and Beauty.
He placed his phone on the table and closed his eyes to sleep. He wrapped his hand around Beauty and dozed off.
.
The next morning, Beauty’s yawn woke Dylan up. She turned her face and saw him laying beside her. She remembered that she slept beside granny last night.
“He must have carried me here” she thought. Dylan sat up and stretched a little.
“You came last night” she said a little bit excited.
“Yes, I came. You spoke to me, remember?” He said. She furrowed her eyebrows, trying to remember. She shook her head.
“I didn’t say anything” she replied. Dylan sighed de-eply and su-cked in his li-ps.
“You told me to promise me not to leave you” he tried to remember her.
“I didn’t say anything like that” she said and started to blus-h.
“Beauty?” He called out.
“I can’t remember. So… I’m sure you are making it all up” she said and alight from the bed. She found her way into the bathroom. Dylan Gr0-ned in frustration. There was no way to explain things to her. She would just deny everything. He went to his old back and picked some of his clothes. He ordered some food and walked into the bathroom.
“What are you doing here?” She asked with her eyes wide open.
“This is not the first…”
“I know this is not the first time bathing together but I nee-d to hurry also” he said.
“No.. no. It’s too small” she said and pushed him out of the bathroom. She threw his towel at him and locked the door behind.
“Beauty, you told me you love me.last night”
“Lier!!!” Beauty yelled from the bathroom.
