Sally helped Beauty to get ready for her interview. She wore a black long gown. Dylan walked out of the closet, wearing a simple shirt with Jean trouser.
Sally swallowed ha-rd.
“Are you sure you don’t want me to come with you?” She asked.
“It’s fine. Dylan wants to come with me, let him” Beauty replied.
“Okay” Sally replied and walked away. Beauty stood up and exhaled de-eply. Dylan smiled and walked towards her, kizzing her forehead.
“You are the most beautiful wife in the whole world” he said.
She lowered her gaze and blus-hed.
“Thank you @$$istant” she winked. He let go of her and took her bag.
“Shall we?” He asked.
They both left the house and picked a simple car. She didn’t forget to wear her wedding ring. Of course, she was going to tell a little secret today, she hoped.
.
Dylan drove her to the studio where the interview was going on. She was the last model to be interviewed.
“Hey… Oh my goodness, Mr…”
“Shh!” Beauty placed her finger in her li-ps. Jack almost screamed when he saw Dylan. He remembered the first time he met him in the hotel.
“Mr… Welcome!” Jack whispered.
Dylan took few steps towards him.
“Do you have a death wish?” He asked. Jack shook with fear and shook his head.
“No sir”
“Then pretend you don’t know me. Let’s go baby” he said and left with Beauty.
Jack watched as they walked towards the elevator.
“Baby? Argh! Jeez!” He murmured and placed his hand on his che-st. He could hear it beating so fast.
.
“You don’t have to scare him that much” Beauty said to Dylan.
“He’s annoying. I should have just ban him”
“Dylan!”
“Sh!” This time he placed his finger on her li-ps. The elevator dinged. Some other models walked in. Beauty cleared her throat and moved away from Dylan. It was Sunny and friends.
“I guess here is the chance for us to deal with piece of sh!t behind us” Sunny said to her friends.
They laughed and turned to Beauty. Dylan wanted to stand in front of her to protect her but she held back his hand.
“What do you want Sunny?” Beauty asked her. Sunny pushed her till her back hit the elevator wall. She Gr0-ned in pain silently.
“Who’s gonna save you from us now? You can never win that award with your ugly face!” She yelled.
Dylan couldn’t take it anymore. He stood in front of Beauty protecting her.
Sunny laughed at him.
“Who are you?” She asked.
“I’m her @$$istant. I won’t let you hurt her”
“You are gonna be her savior. Give me the pie” she said. They brou-ght out the pie from her bag and threw it at Beauty. Dylan stood in her place and took the hit instead.
“Dy…”
“Shh… Don’t say a word” he whispered to her. Tears rolled down her eyes. She could tell the pie was really hot.
“You deserve it” Sunny whispered to Dylan. He was busy staring at Beauty. The elevator door suddenly dinged. Sunny and her friends hurriedly left, leaving them behind.
“Let’s go” Dylan said. He grabbed her hand and they walked to the studio. Since she was still the tenth person. Beauty pulled his head and walked him to the toilet.
“What are you doing Beauty?” He asked, watching her lock the door behind. She went to the drawer and saw a first aid box. She didn’t even have the time to listen to him. All she wanted to do was to help him with his burn.
“Take off your clothes” she said.
“What if someone catches us?” He asked.
“What? Then I’ll tell them you are my…”
“Fine” he interrupted her and took off his shirt. She sat on the sink while he stood. Tears continued dropping from her eyes to his skin as she applied the cream on his body.
“I’m sorry that I have to make you go throu-ghall this. I never meant to” she said.
“I’m mad at you Beauty” he said. She removed her hands from his body.
He turned and wore his shirt.
“For not telling me that those girls bully you everytime” he concluded. For some seconds, Beauty thought he was going to end things with her.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t want to bother you about it”
“Well, now, I’ve find out about it” he said. “I’m getting them banned for life. They won’t even get to work as a maid anywhere. If that happens, that building or corporation would be closed down”
Beauty could se-nse the anger in his voice. She used his shirt and pulled him close to herself.
She quickly kizzed him, wrapping her arms around his ne-ck.
Dylan didn’t un-derstand why she had to kizz him when he was angry. To calm him down, well, it was working.
“Don’t do that now. Tomorrow is the perfect day for you to blacklist her” she said to him. He nodded and carried her down.
“Let’s go already” he said. She kept the first aid box and left the bathroom.
.
They both head to the waiting room where other models were.
.
“I’m sure her vote will be ruined when everyone sees this video. What could she be doing in the toilet with her substitute @$$istant? You are done for Beauty” Sunny smi-rked as she pla-yed with her phone. She hurriedly post the video she just did on the internet.
.
Sally was on the bed with Leo when Tara barged into their room.
Sally sprung up while Leo hid un-der the bedsheet.
“Um… Tara! it’s not what you think. I was just… Helping him”
“Yeah, I see what you’re helping him do. But we have a bigger problem than that” Tara said and showed Sally the video. Leo peeped from the bed and saw Beauty and Dylan walking out from the bathroom.
The two of them started giggling.
“So cute, they couldn’t wait to get home” Leo said.
“I know right. See the look on Beauty’s face”
“That’s not it! Read the caption!” Tara yelled. They stared at the phone again and shot their eyes wide open.
“Oh no!”
“This is bad!”
“He went as an @$$istant. This is going to ruin her interview” Tara said. Leo had no idea when he left the bed na-ked.
Tara grabbed her phone from Sally and left the room. Sally turned and gazed at Leo.
“What the Fu-ck!! You just showed that thing to a child!”
“I’m not a child!” Tara yelled from the outside.
“Get out Tara!!!” The both of them yelled.
.
Leo reached his phone after wearing his pa-nts. He tried calling Dylan but the reception was bad.
.
The call finally went throu-ghafter ten minutes.
“Yes, it’s ringing…” He said.
.
Dylan heard his phone ringing in his pocket and brou-ght it out.
Someone walked to him.
“Please, all phones should be switched off till the interview is over” he said in a whispering tone.
“Sure” Dylan switched off his phone. Beauty also did the same thing.
.
“Now it’s switched off. We have to reach there”
“No, they’ll get suspected. There’s nothing we can do” Sally pouted her li-ps like she wanted to cry.
“Well, it’s done. Tomorrow, Dylan will exp-ose his true identity. It’s not that bad”
“But it’s going to ruin Beauty’s reputation for today. She slept with her hot substitute @$$istant” Sally was sad.
.
Suddenly, a call entered into Sally’s phone. It was one of the nurses.
She hurriedly answered the call.
“Yes?”
“Her case is getting worse. We tried calling the madam but she isn’t picking her calls. Can you come here quickly please?”
“Yes, we’ll be right there” Sally said and threw her phone on the bed.
“Go get dress now. Granny’s health is getting worse. I have a bad feeling that she’s gonna..”
“Die?” Leo asked.
Sally nodded her head. He hummed and went to his room.
.
It was finally Beauty’s turn to get interviewed. Sunny catwalked out of the studio. She walked towards Beauty.
“Good luck getting humiliated!” She laughed and left. Beauty furrowed her eyebrows.
“What did she do now?” She asked herself.
“Miss Beauty, you’re next!” They yelled. The interview was live. They’ve been live for five hours now.
She sat comfortably on the yellow sofa. It matched her black long gown.
.
“Starting.. 3, 2, 1… Action!”
.
“Welcome back! I hope you enjoyed the short break. Right here with me is our very own miss Beauty!!!” She yelled. Beauty smiled, expo-sing her teeth. Dylan was at the other side, cheering her on silently. She smiled and exhaled de-eply.
“So Beauty, I heard that you were married”
“Yeah, I am” she said, showing them her ring. The host gasped in surprise.
“I can’t wait to meet your secret husband and…”
“Someone interrupted the interview and whispered into the host ear”
“Okay, we have a top news about Beauty…”
Beauty frowned. She wondered what top news. She was enjoying the interview before this stupid top news came.
“As it is said…. Miss Beauty in the toilet with her hot substitute @$$istant. What happened?” The host read and gasped. Beauty didn’t know if she should be happy or sad. She stared at Dylan and saw him walk out.
“Oh no…” She murmured.

? Chapter Thirty Five?
The host made mockery of Beauty indirectly as she kept pla-ying the video over and over again. Beauty turned to see if Dylan was there or coming, but there was no sign of him.
She smiled weirdly.
“Nothing like that happened. I just helped him out” she said.
“Helped? I can see the way he’s all sweaty and.. look at his shirt. Can I get a little zoom please ” she said to the media. They zoomed in and saw his shirt.
“Take a look at it. It’s so rou-gh. You can’t run away from this now Beauty. This was supposed to be an interview but… You don’t deserve to be here and you don’t deserve the award either”
Tears rolled down Beauty’s cheek. She lowered her gaze. She didn’t know if she should breath or not.she wished the ground could just open mouth and swallow her. They were live. Almost ten million people are watching her.
“Trust me, nothing like this happened”
“And your husband. I’m sure he’s probably waiting for you to sign the divorce paper when you get home” she said and laughed.
The host received signal to end the interview.
“Well, this interview has come to an end. I can’t wait to see the most beautiful model tomorrow. Remember to vote for your favorite model…”
As she spoke, Beauty walked out of there.
.
Beauty went into the bathroom and wiped the tears off her face. She washed her face and smiled at her reflection.
“Where has he gone to now?” She asked herself, drying her face. She quickly left and went in search of Dylan.
.
“Hey! Hey!” Dylan yelled, majestically walking behind Sunny. She didn’t want to wait for him. She quickly stopped when she got to the entrance.
She sighed and stared at Dylan.
“How dare you?” She asked.
“Take that video down now!” He said.
Sunny raised her hand and slapped Dylan on the face. It came so swiftly, that he didn’t even see it coming.
“Don’t you ever speak to me that way. Stupid substitute @$$istant!”
Someone pulled Sunny from behind and slapped her also. For some seconds, Dylan thought it was Beauty but it was their CEO, Jack.
“Jack! How could you?!” She yelled.
“Take down that video!” He yelled at her. Everyone gathered to watch the little drama. Dylan hated this already. He hated being around people and Sunny just made a scene. She’s going to make her pay for everything.
“Don’t make me…” She said with her eyes wide open. She turned and walked out of the studio.
Jack stared at Dylan with tears in his eyes.
“Don’t bring down the company please. She’s going to pay for her crimes herself” he said.
“Don’t you worry. I’ll make her pay” he said, turning to meet Beauty. He stopped when she walked out of elevator with her face soaked with tears.
Everyone started recording her. Dylan wished he could laugh out loud.
“She’s such a drama queen” he murmured. He followed her behind and they went to the car.
“That was so close” she said, wiping the tears off her face.
Dylan was still staring at her, wondering how he ended up with a crazy wife.
“I can’t believe you” he said.
She laughed and switched on her phone.
There was so many messages and missed calls from Sally, Tara, Leo and… The Nurse!!!
“Let’s head to granny’s place. She must be in trouble” she said.
“Sure” he said and started the car. He drove off to granny’s place.
.
“Help me with my phone please” he said, pouting his li-ps at his right pocket. She sli-pped her hand into his pocket and helped him with it his phone.
“Switch it on” he said. She pushed the bu-tton and the phone brightened.
“It’s… Um…”
“Beauty”
“Huh?” She replied, thinking he was calling her.
“The p@$$word is your name” he said. She cleared her throat and typed her name. It unlocked immediately. She secretly blus-hed and stole glances at her.
“Don’t stare at me that way. I’ll stare back at you and we’ll both end up in the hospital”
“Well, I’m scared” she said, resting her head on his shoulder.
“I wonder what my husband is going to do to me once I get home. The host said, I’m going to sign a divorce paper when I get home” she pouted her li-ps, talking like a child.
“Do you want me to talk to your husband for you? I’m sure he’ll un-derstand that we didn’t do anything in the bathroom”
“Sure, tell him I’d do anything to make it up to him” she said, blus-hing.
“I think he’ll want hundred kizzes every hour” Dylan replied and took a left turn towards granny’s house.
“Babe!!!!” She yelled and hit his arm. Dylan laughed out loud, expo-sing his dimples. He finally stopped the car. She kizzed him on the cheek.
“Ninety nine to go…” She said and hurriedly left the car. She headed into granny’s house and saw Leo and Sally in the sitting room. She stopped for some seconds and slowly turned her head into granny’s room. She was covered with a white cloth.
No words could escape from her mouth. Tears rolled down her cheek as she stood there.
Her heart was racing fast, making the tears increase.
“Granny?” She called out and walked into her room. She removed the cloth from her face and grabbed granny’s hand.
“No! You can’t leave just like that granny. No! Why?!!” She cried into her weak body. Dylan saw that his granny was dead. He sighed de-eply and lowered his head.
He can’t believe it. He just couldn’t believe it. He has to bury two people after the award.
“Beauty?” He called out.
“No! Granny, open your eyes. You can’t just leave me” she cried. It took hours before Dylan could take her away from granny’s body. She just didn’t want to leave the room.
Sally and Leo stayed back and took care of her body. They took it to the mortuary.
.
Beauty alight from the car and ran into the house without waiting for her husband. Dylan un-derstand what she was going throu-gh. He was the one losing people but she felt the pain for everything.
.
“Dylan, what happened?” Tara asked Dylan.
“It’s nothing. You should rest” he replied to his sister.
“Sure” Tara replied and walked into her room. She locked it behind and quickly made a call.
.
.
Dylan walked into the room and locked the door behind.
“Baby?” He called out. He saw her lying on the bed, with her stomach. She was still crying.
He sat beside her on the bed and took off her shoes.
“Beauty?” He called out as he took her shoes off.
“Don’t talk to me” she cried.
“I know how sad you are now…” He got interrupted by her phone call. It was her mother. She answered the call and sat up. Dylan saw her swollen face.
“Hello” she said.
“Oh my goodness, Beauty? Are you alright?” She asked.
“I’m fine mom. Leave me alone” she said.
“I’m wishing you all the best Beauty. I know I’ve been a bad mother to you but I’ve missed you so much. Let me see you please”
“Did you vote for me?” Beauty asked her mother childishly.
“Yes, I did. I even made sure my friends voted for you. Even the president of the entertainment world supports you. I can’t wait to see him tomorrow”
“You’ll see me tomorrow then. Good night” she said and disconnected the call. She wanted to lay back on the bed to continue crying by Dylan stopped her. He carried her in his arms into the bathroom.
“What are you doing?” She asked.
“Bathing you” he replied. She kept mute and let him to what he was doing.
“Are you going to touch every pa-rt of my body?” She asked, giving him a crazy look.
“Jeez! You were crying few seconds ago and now, here you are wanting me to touch every pa-rt of your body”
She frowned and wanted to leave the bath tub. He pulled her back into the water and took off his shirt.
“It’s gonna be as my lady wants” he said and smiled. Beauty smiled also. She was trying not to think about Granny but Dylan has succeeded her in making her forget all about Granny.
.
.
The next morning, Dylan was busy getting ready for the award today. He has been receiving a lot of calls and messages today.
He went with Leo to the car garage. He went round, checking the fleet of cars in the garage.
“I nee-d the two limo. Use the.. white for… I don’t know which one she’s gonna prefer. White or black?” Dylan was confused himself. He thought of asking her before deciding. He walked back to the mansion.
.
Beauty on the other hand turned on the bed and yawned. She saw herself wearing a white shirt. It was probably for Dylan. She stood up and stretched her body, still sleepy.
She turned to head into the bathroom when she stared at her reflection in the mirror.
“Ahhhhhhh!!!!!” She screamed.
