The Last Tears

Emerald Castle... Jemmy sat lonely with his laptop hosting an online meeting with his staff. When he heard a slight movement, he looked at the bed attentively. "Send someone to protect Marina. She's my sister." Naysa said while still asleep. Jemmy didn't understand whether she was dreaming or meant what she said. When he tried to wake her up, she was still sleeping. But anyway, Wade was send off to Polar hotel. Evening, Naysa opened her eyes and stared into the black shiny eyes. Jemmy was too happy when she woke up. Though the doctor just said she was ok, Jemmy could still not believe his words. "How do you feel?" Jemmy asked. Naysa wanted to sit up but the strong hands held her back. "You'll hurt yourself." "Am fine I can sit ok?" She said but Jemmy didn't let her go. "Naysa there is one thing we have to talk about. The way you do take rush decisions is alarming and that's endangering your life. At least, wherever you go, take the guards with you. For the sake of your protection." Jemmy said. Naysa, with Jemmy's support sat up and looked at him. "I just don't know what came over me. Am sorry." She said, lowering her head like an obedient child to the parents. It was too cute that Jemmy stared at her admiringly. Even at her weakest point, she's still never lost her beauty. "I'll make you something to eat." He said as he stood up and headed to the kitchen. "Hey, some wonders here today!" Adrian started. "He's going to personally cook for her." Another guard said. "Wait, does he even know how to cook?" Stenson couldn't help laughing. In a matter of five minutes, the kitchen looked like a tornado zone. Broken pieces of glasses and plates were all over. Flour was all over the place plus in his face. His whole clothes were covered in flour and other kitchen ingredients. When he came out, Naysa who sat in the living room burst out laughing. Stenson couldn't help it as he took pictures. The other guards went out the couldn't suppress their laughter any longer. "Ooh my God! What were you doing?" Naysa held a mirror close to his face but Jemmy closed his eyes. "Do I look terrible?" He asked in a cute deep voice. "No... Not really. Who said my husband can look terrible? You look cute and funny. You've won a suit to the kitchen? I can't help it." Naysa laughed again. Looking at his suit, Jemmy couldn't help frowning. "What did you prepare for me?" She asked. "I made instant noodles." He said. "And how did you have your whole body covered in flour?" She asked. Jemmy kept quiet. "Can I go to the kitchen and have a look?" "No... Don't go there!" Jemmy stepped forward to stop her. "Can we go together then?" Naysa asked. "If you insist." He replied while leading the way. Naysa followed. The whole kitchen was a mess. The trash can was full of spoilt dumplings, pan cakes and many other goods he tried to prepare. He looked at Naysa innocently. "Ok you did a good job, but you're a pretty bad cook." She said. Jemmy stared at her as if digesting what she just said. "Ok, don't be mad at me for that kind of a comment. Can I be your teacher then?" "Sure." He replied. "But there is a fee to pay. Are you ready?" She asked. "How much is it teacher?" He asked eargerly that Naysa laughed. "It's not about money. It's something else." She said. "Whatever you want, I'll do it for you." Jemmy said. "Good, now take a guess before I tell you."

CHAPTER TWENTY NINE: A TOAST FOR YOUR NEW MAN

Naysa and Marina walked into their room. From afar, she saw Ridden seated lonely, probably waiting for her. She just didn't care about the whole gossip and information going around. In the room, Livia sat in her bed looking at her phone. The two walked in.

"Livia how are you." Naysa greeted, sinking in her bed. Though no other belonging of hers was still in the room, at least she had them and her bed was still there.

"Am good. I saw the video everyone is talking about. How lucky of you. " She replied.

"If you say so." Naysa calmly took out her phone and went through the group chat. Different people had different opinions about the video, but the main topic discussed was her relationship with Ridden. Back then, everyone assumed Ridden was her boyfriend since they used to spend most of their times together. Though Ridden refused to give any explanation concerning his relationship with Naysa and the man in the video as his rival in love, many people talked about it. Though only one picture of Jemmy was online, and it was only a selfie, few people recognized him as the man in the video because he had blocked all news channels in time before this whole event was published, only the video remained this his real identity remained mysterious for the time being.

Marina rearranged her closet after which she excused herself saying she needed to call home and have a talk with her father.

"Naysa, why don't we have a visit to the Caskey's Shine hotel?" Livia asked.

"I would have said yes, but right now I don't have any money. Besides, why would we go there? Marina will be remaining behind?" Naysa asked.

"Don't worry about money. The Caskeys Shine hotel isn't that expensive. Besides, it's owned by Roderick's family. He can take care of everything." Livia said.

"Mmh?" Naysa looked back at Marina who was looking at Livia suspiciously. "Ok... I accept, but I need to talk to Marina first." Naysa stood up and dragged Marina out.

"What do you think?" She asked.

"Am suspicious. Livia might be pulling a trick. Why would she suggest just..." Marina said but Naysa cut her short.

"Calm down... Livia is our roommate remember. She can't do anything. Besides, you know I'll be leaving with her and if anything happens, she will be held responsible. Livia hasn't had any schemes. Why would you suddenly think she's upto something?" Naysa said.

"Am just... I don't know why I feel this way. I just think we shouldn't trust her." Marina shook her head.

"Do this, I we take long, call me. If I don't pick up... Then you'll call Jemmy for me. Probably he's the only one I can ask for help since uncle Tarran will just get stressed out if you call him." Naysa said, dialing Jemmy's number on Marina's phone.

"I'll be in the room resting." Marina, the lady who loved to sleep said. Naysa hugged her lightly and they walked in. Soon, Livia and Naysa boarded a taxi and left. Naysa's hadn't drove to school and wasn't willing to go with Livia to where she stayed. So they boarded a taxi to Caskey's Shine hotel.

On getting there, they were given a private room where just the two of them were in. Though it was large, it wasn't as luxurious as Spark Hotel. Naysa sat down and waited for Livia to order the drinks. Soon, Livia walked in with two bottles of wine.

"I won't take wine." Naysa said.

"Come on, it's just a toast for your new man. Besides, you are with me, you don't need to worry." Livia said.

Naysa was tempted, after all she hadn't tested wine ever but Livia had been drinking for long. She accepted the toast.

"But you don't know him do you?" Naysa asked.

"Of course I know him. The face in the video is similar to that of the Red State Company CEO, isn't it?" Livia asked. They both started drinking but after a short while, Naysa's eyes started to blur and she felt dizzy.

"Are you there?" Naysa asked.

"Naysa you got so drunk easily. Why?" Livia asked while concerned. She moved to her side and wanted to support her when a group of men entered and shoved her out. One man looked at the beautiful lady who was loosing consciousness with lastful eyes.

James Caskey had seen the video and of no doubt recognized the lady. Livia's voice was heard from a distance but then disappeared. James didn't know Hank in the first place, he followed the car with the Grant's logo and had met him. He didn't know the man in the video either, but his facial figures, his height was almost similar to that of Hank. Since Hank had injured him, he decided to find someone to vent his anger. When he saw the video, he vowed to revenge on the girl wherever they would meet. That way, though indirectly, he would have hurt Hank's brother, which was almost the same as hurting Hank. When he burged into the room, he had at first just wanted to cause the girl physical pain, but her beauty charmed her.

"Someone help me get up... Livia..." Naysa called out weakly.
