💋 Chapter Thirteen 💋
Sally quickly ran to Beauty. She was lying unconscious on the floor. Dylan turned his neck and saw Beauty on the floor.
"Beauty! Beauty!" He called out with Sally.
They were both trying to wake her.
"Beauty, come on open your eyes" he said softly gently touching her face.
"Why did she faint?" He asked Sally.
"She was shocked. Everyone thinks you are a huge man that is married and have kids" Sally said slowly.
"But..."
"Shh, she has woken up" Sally interrupted him.
Beauty sat up and rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand.
She diverted her gaze to Dylan and slowly moved away from him.
"You are.. how come? I mean, how are you him?" Beauty slowly asked.
"Beauty please stand up from the floor" he replied ignoring her completely.
Beauty sighed and stood up. She sat on the chair staring at her food.
"This is crazy! I can't believe that I'm married to.. you" she said with a serious face.
"I just had to keep it a secret" he replied.
Beauty sighed, blinking repeatedly.
"It's okay. I still don't understand all this. I feel like it's just a dream" she replied eating slowly.
They all sat and ate slowly. Sally was shocked that she has finally found him at last and he is married to her best friend.
Beauty returned to the room after eating dinner. What Dylan told her kept on ringing in her mind.
She went into the closet and chose a night wear. Everything was short and skimpy.
"I can't wear this. It's just too short" she complained.
She bit her lips and chose a red gown.
She walked out of the closet and saw Dylan also coming out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist.
She walked closer to the bed and couldn't imagine that she was going to share a bed with him.
"Left or right?" Dylan asked.
"Always right" she replied, not staring at him.
He silently went into the closet and changed.
Beauty laid on the bed and brushed her fingers all over her ugly face.
As she saw the closet door opening, she quickly pretended to be asleep.
She wondered what would happen next. It's their wedding night, what should happen?
Dylan walked towards her wearing a black singlet and a short.
He switched off the light and laid beside her.
They both stared at the ceiling doing nothing.
"So, how did it happen?" She suddenly asked.
"All of a sudden" he replied.
"I have a lot of questions to ask you sir..." She said staring at him.
Dylan turned his body and faced her.
"I'll answer two questions everyday. Like the sound of that"
She nodded and so faced him.
"Then I'll ask you two questions everyday" he said.
Beauty couldn't say no.
"Okay sir" she said softly.
"Calling me sir all of a sudden. I'm Dylan okay. Just call me Dylan"
Beauty raised her head and rested it on his chest.
She could feel the warm breathe coming from him. He smells so cute and fresh.
"Fine Dylan. Why did you keep your life a secret?" She asked.
"Just want to. I'm hiding what I've become from my family. Since my mother died, it's been very difficult for me. My step mom treats me bad till she sent me out of the house. That was when i met granny. She took care of me for seventeen years" he replied talking slowly and romantically.
Beauty lowered her gaze.
"That's sad. Next question..."
"No, it's my turn. Why did you decide not to tell your parents about our marriage?" He asked.
"My dad's dead. I only have my mom and I just want to live a secret life. I mean, I've always wanted to live a secret life but mom keeps on doing this I don't like. If I tell her, she would definitely want to meet you" she said playing with her finger.
"Hmmm. Nice. Your turn" he said and placed his hands under his head.
Beauty flung her hair and stared at him.
"What are you gonna do to me tonight?" She whispered to him.
Dylan stared at her giving her a questioning look.
"What do you want me to do?" He whispered also.
"I don't know. You are the man" she rolled her eyes. She couldn't believe she was talking naughty.
"And you're the lady. You have to choose. Do you want it now or next time?" He asked.
Beauty was even confused. She has always wanted to give her body to her husband and now's the chance.
She was nervous of how he's going to treat her.
"I thought granny said you are a virgin"
"She meant the opposite. I'm crazy on the bed" he replied.
"Ohhh... I'm scared" she pretended and covered her face.
Dylan smiled and stared at her.
"Scared of what?" He teased her.
She bent her neck and chuckled.
"I don't know Dylan. I don't know if I can be able to do this. I just don't have any idea of how it is" she said softly.
"I'm not gonna to force you. Anytime you are ready. I can control myself" he said and brushed her hair off her face.
"Thanks Dylan" she said slowly.
"You are welcome. I have a question left" he pointed out.
"Sure. Ask me" she said dancing her finger round his chest.
"Are you happy with me?" He asked.
Beauty jerked her head up and stared at him.
"I should be asking you that. You are so famous and decide to get married to an ugly person like me. I'm a little scared though but I know I'll be happy with you very soon" she said.
"You are beautiful. Just know that" he replied.
"Thanks Dylan. You should sleep now. You have a meeting tomorrow" she said.
"Good night then" he said and closed his eyes.
Beauty laid on his chest and dozed off.
.
.
Dylan was woken up by the rays of the sun. He turned and saw the room was empty.
He stood up and yawned tiredlessly.
Beauty walked into the room with a brown suit that was well-ironed.
"Hey Dylan. Good morning" she said and laid the cloth on the bed.
Dylan stared at her and gave a sudden laugh.
"You don't have to stress yourself with that. The maids would do that" Dylan said and leaned his hand on his waist.
"I just had to. I woke up early and I was bored so I.." she bit her lips and stared at the suit.
"Thanks Beauty" he said and clapped his hand.
His maids walked into the bathroom and waited for Dylan.
He then turned from her and entered into the bathroom.
Beauty frowned.
"Does the maid have to bath him?" She hissed and walked away.
.
.
Dylan was already prepared for the meeting.
He stood in front of the mirror adjusting his tie.
Beauty walked into the room with a cup of tea.
"I know you won't eat so, drink this" she said and placed it on the table opposite him.
Dylan smiled at him and grabbed the cup. He took a sip and nodded.
"This is nice" he said and continued gulping it down.
"I have to go already. It's almost time" he said and went out of the room.
"Wait! Let me excort you to the car" she yelled and followed him out.
Dylan stopped and turned to face her.
"Car? Seems I didn't show you my office last night"
"What?"
"Yeah. I'm keeping my identity a secret so, I work from home. Let's go" he said and held her hands.
They walked towards a large door.
The guard threw the door open. Beauty eyes widen. A wow escaped her lips.
It was just like a real office. So huge and beautiful. There was everything in the office.
"Stop staring already" Dylan said jokingly.
Beauty stared at him and smiled.
"It's really beautiful here" she replied.
"Just have a seat there. My meeting will just be in 30 minutes" he said and walked towards his seat.
Leo walked into the office and bowed.
"Good morning master. Good morning my lady"
"Start the meeting already" he said.
Leo nodded and went to seat. He say and stared at the computer screen waiting for it to turn on already.
Beauty stared at him weirdly.
"It was a video conference. Why is he...?"
Suddenly, Dylan turned and backed the computer.
"Seemed like it has started already" she said slowly and leaned back on the chair staring at his back.
She watched as he spoke to them in a serious and calm tone.
She was getting tired and cold.
She was forced to sneeze.
The meeting paused.
"That wasn't from my side sir"
"Me also"
"Don't worry about that. It was my wife. I'll be back" he said and stood up.
They were all surprised.
That was the first time that he was talking about his wife.
Dylan took off his jacket and wrapped it all over her.
"Wear that" he whispered and went back to his seat, still backing them.
They were shocked to see him with his shirt.
They acted like everything was normal.
"Let's continue" he said calmly.
Beauty blushed and held his jacket tighter to herself.
"That's so sweet" she smiled.
