Sinclair's tensed face softened at the sight of Serene. He could not describe the emotions that took over him that moment.
" Let's go" he ordered the chauffeur.
*
After having dinner that evening they both went to their separate homes filling satisfied to have met together that night.
Serene still had the encounter with Davis replaying in her mind. Now that she know Eva was responsible, what was she going to do with that fact?. It might come in handy one day, there was no need in confronting her now or else.... something might happen.
Serene made her bed drifting slowly to sleep as she thought about the dinner date she had this evening. All she could think of was Sinclair and his sweetness today.
*
The morning creeped in slowly forcing the darkness into hiding, soon the sun snuck out behind the clouds and shone upon the Z city.
Serene steered in her sleep her eyelash blinking rapidly indicating that she was about to wake up.
A figure stood by the bedside looking down on the girl that slept so freely, her snow white leg opened in the process of sitting on the bed making her look like a Goddess that just woke from a beauty sleep.
The figure standing by the bed was Sinclair, he came to pick Serene early today to meet his grandmother since she'll be facing medical attention twenty-four-seven later in the day and until next week.
The old Mrs Moore was quite old and delicate, she was struck with a terminal illness in her sixties and now was in her seventies, yet she still lives like a child that had so many years in front of her, always smiling and lightening up everyone's mood.
' Bring that lady to me, I want to see her ' She said to Sinclair last night when she called him on the phone.
Sinclair felt surge of blood flowing down one certain area that twitched lightly at the sight of Serene's legs. The nightdress has finally ridden up to her laps exposing her unblemished creamy skin. If he could just grab that leg to feel the thickness....Ah!.
Sinclair shook his head at such thought and waited for Serene to finish her stretching.
" Ah!" Serene yelled out in fear, she thought it was a strange man at first but slowly relaxed when she saw the face of Sinclair.
" Uncle?" Serene whispered
Her morning voice was soft and feathery, sounding like a whisper but still loud enough to hear.
" Grandmother wants to see you today so we have to leave on time before she is taken away for medical care" Sinclair said straight forwardly, sitting down on his wheelchair while adjusting his collar to calm himself down from an intense battle within himself.
" Oh"
Serene blushed lightly as she noticed her nightdress has ridden up her legs and Sinclair's unsettled gaze showed that he was affected. Would he think she was a seductress now?. Serene thought.
The man had left the room giving her the space to freshen up. When she was done with that she went downstairs to meet Sinclair sitting on his wheelchair by the foot of the stairs waiting for her, so gentle manly. Serene thought with a smile.
She was dressed maturely today, her dark blue below knee dress swayed with her as she walked down the stairs eyes locked on Sinclair.
" You look amazing" Sinclair sincerely said with a smile. Zane who accompanied him today was stunned by the sight. So this was the woman?, she was beautiful and charismatic especially her taste in dressing, so lady-like.
" Thank you" Serene blushed lightly. She has lost count of the number of blushing since yesterday, this was unlike her.
They walked out of the house into the car then finally drove to the ranch house where Grandma Moore preferred to be unknowing to them that malicious eyes tracked their every move until their disappearance from the streets.
Eva felt a wave of jealousy as she watched young master Moore tease and compliment Serene. That man will soon be hers!. Her confidence surged up especially after remembering that she saw Sinclair on his own two feet walking up the stairs normally as if he was not sitting on a wheelchair when he arrived.
Maybe serene doesn't know of this fact. She smiled at the thought.
*
Grandma Moore was seriously bedridden, the smell of medicine tore through the air at the ranch house making it uncomfortable to stay for a long time. Serene walked in as if she did not smell the stinky air.
" Sure you don't need a nose mask?" Sinclair asked again pointing to the mask he wore.
" No" Serene answered
Grandma Moore was looking pitiful sitting on the bed with no one there. Serene entered the room with Sinclair, scrunching her nose lightly at the sudden smell of medicine. Something doesn't feel right.......
" Eh!, Grand daughter-in-law" Grandma Moore lit up as she saw Serene walking in with Sinclair.
" Grandma, good day" Serene greeted sitting on the chair close to the bed where Grandma Moore sat.
" Stinky boy, you can't acknowledge your own grandmother!" Grandma Moore reprimanded, even if the statement looked harsh there was a hidden warmth in her voice.
" I thought I was invisible since you were quit smitten by your Grand daughter-in-law " Sinclair said with a straight face.
" Humph, you will never change, stinky boy "
Grandma Moore and Serene chatted happily together leaving Sinclair out of the discussion, he was invisible after all.
After a while, the servant who usually brewed medicine for Grandma Moore appeared with the bowl of steaming medicine for her. The servant noticed that the visitors were still around so she kept the medicine on the bedside table and proceeded to leave.
" Wait!" Serene's voice echoed all over the room. She stood up walking over to the steaming medicine and sniffed it.
" Why is it smelling like this?" she asked
