Dylan woke up early, feeling rested and ready to start the day. He quietly made his way to the kitchen, determined to make breakfast for Maya before dressing her for school. He took out a carton of eggs, a pack of bacon, and some sliced bread from the fridge and started cooking.He cracked the eggs into a bowl and whisked them together, adding a splash of milk and a pinch of salt. He then fried the bacon in a pan until it was crispy and golden brown. As the bacon sizzled, he toasted the bread in the toaster and spread a generous amount of butter on each slice.When everything was ready, he plated the food and set the table. He poured some orange juice into a glass and placed it beside Maya's plate.After a few minutes, he made his way to Maya's room and gently shook her shoulder. "Good morning, honey," he said softly. "It's time to wake up. I made you breakfast.”Maya stirred without opening her eyes. “I don't want to eat.”Dylan furrowed his brows and noticed she was restless. He ra

Dylan looked up as the door opened and Dr. Lydia stepped out. He stood up, his heart beating faster in anticipation."How is she?" he asked, his voice a little shaky.Dr. Lydia smiled at him reassuringly. "She's going to be fine," she said. "The fever has come down a little bit, and we've given her some medicine to bring it down further."Dylan breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God," he said. "Can I see her?"Dr. Lydia nodded. "Of course. Follow me."She led him down a long corridor and through a set of double doors, and into a small private room where Maya was lying on a hospital bed, her eyes closed. Dylan rushed to her side and took her small hand."She's still sleeping," Dr. Lydia said softly. "But she should be waking up soon. We'll keep her here for a few more hours just to make sure the fever doesn't come back."Dylan nodded, his eyes never leaving his daughter's face. "Yeah, thank you, Dr. Lydia," he said gratefully. "Scared the shit out of me."Dr. Lydia nodded in understandi

“What help?” Dylan questioned.Allison wasn't sure of how she was gonna say it or where she was gonna begin. She hesitated before finally saying, “I don't want to add you to my problem - or rather family problem, but I'm desperate, to be honest. I can do anything to stop my marriage to Brandon.”Dylan furrowed his brows as she made that comment. “Do anything?” He asked in confusion.Allison nodded and answered, “Yeah. Maybe in a way, you could help me push Brandon away. The guy can be a scaredy cat. You know like how you do in high school when you want to warn a guy to stay away from a girl – that sort of thing. I don't know if it's possible now.”Dylan stared at her for a few seconds as he thought deeply about it. He could do that. And she will owe him. He smirked and nodded with an ulterior motive. “Of course it's possible. I'll make that boy scurry out of your life like the frightened cat he is.”Allison let out a shaky breath of relief and smiled. “Thank you. Thank you so much, Dy

Maya was discharged from the hospital the next day and Stephanie suggested for her to stay one more day at home before going back to school.On his way to a coffee shop where Dylan was gonna finally meet up with Sean, he made a call to Princess Mane which she immediately answered and he said, “What are you up to now? I need you to do something for me.”“Dylan, you know I'm not your bodyguard anymore. Your threats have been eradicated.” Princess Mane told him.“Yeah, yeah, I know. I just need you to buy me a car. For some reason I have so many things to do that I don't have the time to get a new car.”“Ugh, Dylan, now you're turning me to your errand girl?” Princess Mane whined.Dylan shrugged and answered, “You know what happened to my last one. It didn't survive like we did. Just get it for me, thank you. A good one. An Aston Martin will do this time.”Princess Mane groaned in annoyance. “Whatever. You're lucky I love buying cars.” She said and hung up.Soon, Dylan arrived at the cof

Dylan’s Aston Martin arrived and he drove it toward Harper's villa. He got a call from them and wondered what they could possibly want from him.As he drove, he couldn't help but ponder on the fact that Hermione was truly pregnant. All the more reason for him to finally end it with that family. He hated them deeply and this day might be the last day he was going to be visiting that house.He arrived and came out of his car, only to find them outside waiting for him. It was confusing. Dylan cleared his throat and walked toward them with his hands shoved in his pockets.“So what can I do for you guys?” He asked with a snide smile on his face.Madame Sharon’s gaze was lowered for a while before she looked at Dylan and came forward. “Today, I've decided I'm gonna have to lay off my hatred for you since what I'm about to say is more important than that.”Dylan nodded, having no idea where Madame Sharon was driving into. “Okay.” He said unsurely.“You see, your psycho of a cousin called and

Brandon Peterson was eating in an expensive restaurant with his friends, talking, laughing, and chatting when suddenly two men came toward them and one of them banged the table with his fist and looked at Brandon who looked like a pang of blood left him.“You’re Brandon Peterson, nod if I'm correct.”Brandon gulped and nodded out of fear.“Good. Now, this is what I want you to do. Pick up your cell phone and make a call to Mrs. Bethany Adams.” The guy ordered.Brandon frowned in confusion and asked, “Why should I do that?”PUNCH!Brandon yelped and gasped as he was taken aback by it. He held his throbbing face and looked back at the guy. “The hell, man! What's your problem?! What did I do to you?!”The guy sneered and grabbed him by the neck so tight that Brandon gasped and struggled.Everyone in the restaurant didn't know what was happening but it was a sight to watch as they wondered what was happening.But isn't that guy gonna kill him though?“Let him go!!” Seb yelled, even though

Dylan stood in the center of the Red's Wing gun range, a sleek, modern space with shiny black floors and gleaming steel walls. The sound of gunshots echoed through the air as he loaded his handgun, the weight of the weapon heavy in his hand. He took aim at the target, his eyes focused on the bullseye in front of him.He squeezed the trigger and felt the recoil of the gun, watching as the bullet hit its mark with a satisfying thud.“Wow. That was good!” Azure King remarked.Dylan took a deep breath and fired again, the sharp smell of gunpowder filling his nostrils. As he continued to shoot, his mind emptied of everything except the task at hand.“So this girl, Dylan, what's your deal with her?” Azure King as he also shoots his target.Dylan glanced at him and answered, “I'm not really sure. I know she likes me though.”“And what are you waiting for?! Take her, man! This is rare and it just seems to be that you've hit the jackpot! If this girl accepts you for who you are, then you're in

“I want the land," Hermione said firmly and looked at Dylan with a raised eyebrow and a smirk on her face. “Half of it.”Dylan looked at her and his face curved up into a sneer. He chuckled and decided to try and reason with her "Hermione, you know the land is not yours but mine. It came from my hard-earned money.”Madame Sharon glared at him, realizing how smart her daughter was to ask for the land. If they're given half of it, it will be a step toward things working better for them. The land could make them a lot of moneyShe's gonna have to support Hermione on this."Don't be difficult, Dylan. Aren't you her husband? Just give her what she wants." She told him, more like scolded.Dylan looked at Hermione, hoping to reason more with her. "Hermione, are you sure this is the right thing to do? We don't have to do it this way.”“Just shut up, Dylan! You're lucky that there’s something you can give to us! Without that land, you're completely useless to us!” Madame Sharon shunned him in

At the Harper’s villa, they all returned home, all lost in deep thoughts. Hermione was in disbelief that she has finally ended it with Dylan, it was like her old prayers came true, except that they were no longer what she wanted.But Madame Sharon’s was different. What was taking over her thoughts was the message she received about having forty eight hours to live. Was that a drill, or was it actual? It scared her to think too much about it.If care is not taken, she could die of a heart attack or stroke like Gregory Clifford.She dragged her leg toward one of the sofas and sat down with a loud sigh. She was being threatened and she didn't know what to do about it.She couldn't even go to the cops cause they might ask why someone was sending her such a message and she can't exactly say it is because she was involved in the death of Ravenna Hastings or the ghost of Ravenna Hastings has been haunting her, even almost killing her one time after trapping her in a warehouse.Gosh, that day

Dylan drove Maya home in his sleek Aston Martin, a smile lingering on his face as he replayed the moment Allison accepted his invitation for a date. A sense of anticipation filled the air, intertwining with the joy of spending time with her outside the realms of their usual encounters.He was interested in where their relationship would take them, or if it is gonna, unfortunately, end like all his other relationships.Although he doubted that.If this ends, then it means being in relationships was never meant for him However, his blissful thoughts were abruptly interrupted as he started perceiving something amiss in the car. At first, it was a faint scent that tickled his nose, causing him to furrow his brows in confusion. “What the hell?” He muttered to himself with a frown on his face.As he continued to drive, the scent grew stronger, and his senses heightened.Plumes of smoke began to fill the interior of the car, swirling around him in a disorienting haze. Dylan's smile vanishe
