" Grandma?" Samuel thought she was only saying it because they were close and not blood-related, but seeing the look on her face, it seemed he was wrong. The old woman who had been cooking their meals was her grandmother? How come they never told him! It would be bad if she got a bad impression of him.
" Why are you here this late?" Kayla and Mayra separated from Samuel, but Elise was still in her own world, trying to play with Samuel.
" Why shouldn't I be? This is my house; I can come and go as I please! But before that, what were you two doing just now?" The old lady asked the most important question. Her eyes were squinted, watching their every reaction.
"aha, nothing...we were just playing?" Mayra blurted out nervously.
" Right, right. We were playing with Elise?" Kayla lifted Elise in her arms but still wanted to go to Samuel.
" Hmmm..." Just as Grandma was about to say something, Samuel's phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, he was surprised but decided to answer the call.
" Ah, I have to take this. I will be upstairs because I must dress up for the meeting." Samuel excused himself, he wanted to properly greet her, but he would see her again in the evening, so it was fine. He was not worried about their earlier act as he saw nothing wrong with it; he didn't exactly know about their family situation, so there was no reason for him to suspect anything.
The girls also didn't try to stop him and simply let him go fearing he would spill something while talking with the old lady.
It was easier to fabricate some lies in his presence. The only one who looked sad was Elise, who didn't get to spend more time with him, but he had taken care of that issue, reminding her on several occasions and encouraging her to interact with others more.
Elise could convey her feeling more easily through simple phrases, making it easier for others to look after her. Besides, Samuel had to leave in a few weeks, too; she couldn't be relying on him in the future.
" Oma, The food is getting cold!"
" Right, I am hungry too!" The girls gave us some reason to change the subject.
" Not so fast! Elise, watch the television; I will bring your plate there." Grandma patted Elise and said gently. Elise, too, was more excited about cartoons than listening to something she hardly understood; without Samuel, she was not interested.
" Now follow me; I need to ask you some questions!"
"..." They sighed and followed her; thus began a half an hour 'interrogation' Many colourful things were said which should never be heard by small children, but no harm came to the married couple. They skirted around most questions, but Grandma took their silences as affirmation and somewhat understood their situation.
It was hard for her to believe them as she had seen them grow over the years and knew how much they had to suffer.
Her grandchild was resilient, and if she said she didn't have a problem with it, Grandma could only let them do as they saw fit. Her task was to guide and advise them on occasion but not command over them.
It would have been good if that had ended then and there, but Kayla and Mayra were sure that with her grandmother's reputation as the best gossiper, many of their relatives would soon know about it. Hopefully, they will receive the news after Samuel is out of the country, or they will flock to their building!
Upstairs Samuel was busy talking with someone who was passing him a message from someone else. It was confusing, but he was isolated, and she was the only one who acted as a bridge between the two parties.
" Delphina called her personally, huh? I didn't know there was such a history between them."
" Even though I know her, she is quite famous among girls for various reasons. Some find her ideal for a businesswoman, and others are there because she treats everyone fairly despite being from that awful family." Sibylla said frustratingly. She had never experienced such a thing, but many acquaintances were not high on the social ladder.
" I will see what I can do but don't have your hopes up. For someone who doesn't even care what happens to me, I am not inclined to do them a favour." Samuel chuckled; he expected many calls and messages from them but in turn, they were none, and here they sent Sibylla to do their dirty chores!
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm "That...It's not true, I heard Rosaline and Liliana were rushing to the airport, but Maia stopped them after the other news broke about the behind-the-scenes events."
" Is that so?" he smiled, feeling a little conflicted. He wanted to see them so bad, but it was impossible.
" You didn't hear it from me! Now let's talk payment-"
" hah, what do you need?"
Sibylla didn't have untapped finances, and with her lifestyle, the few hundred thousand she got from her family was insufficient. She made several demands, and Samuel connected her with Alastair, who would handle it.
For a docile princess, the public perceived her as cutthroat in negotiations, but having an inside woman was good for him to get instantaneous news from the States.
" Alright, I am hanging up. Don't forget about our deal, or I will cut you off!"
" Aye, aye, sir!"
Samuel laughed at how she instantly changed her tunes with his little incentive; he entered the shower room. There were only a few hours till the promised meeting, he had already received the venue, and without any surprise, it was her home ground. But there was no reason for him to be afraid; they were not enemies yet.
He had already primed the large tub and was finishing washing up his body when two people barged inside without even knocking!
" Fuck! Are you trying to scare me to death?" He exclaimed he was in deep thought, preparing himself for negotiations, but Kayla and Mayra entered the shower room, clearly showing ill intentions in their eyes.
" Does this door not lock? I clearly locked it as I anticipated such a scenario." He moved past, ignoring them, and started inspecting the door handle.
" What? Aren't you surprised?"
" Huh? Surprised for what-" As soon he turned back, he saw them naked, showing their bodies without shame.
" We don't have time for this! , Besides, I can't bear to see-" He tried his best poker face and told them off, but Kayla covered his mouth to stop him from finishing.
" We will be quick. You surely deserve a reward for how hard you 'worked'!"
" What about your Grandmother? Is she watching Elise?" Samuel asked with some concern. She slipped off his mind because of the earlier call.
" She is fine. We told her to watch over her today; now, let's not think about it. Sit down here." They led him to the tub's edge, an expensive apartment with a high-end interior, and the bathroom was no exception.
This room didn't have a jacuzzi, but an oval ginormous bathtub more than made up for it. The edge was flat, so he easily sat down.
" Now, just relax and try to enjoy it as much as possible. It's Mayla's happy hour!" Mayra said with excitement and went behind him.
" Hey, didn't we settle on the name Kayra?"
" We didn't get moving! I am counting minutes!"
" What the hell?" Samuel was confused, but soon he realized what they meant; the girls had gotten some experience and wanted him to release some steam while seeing who could make him do it faster.
It was just the kind of thing that Mayra would come up with, but in that hour, Samuel experienced some of the best techniques that sometimes utilized the whole body. There were some strange postures and a few blunders, but in the end, they emptied him out and threw him out on the way.
Instead of feeling tired, Samuel felt refreshed. He felt lighter, and his vitality was surging, but he stopped thinking about it as he entered his car driving toward his destination.
" Somehow, my body stopped aching?" Kayla got out of the shower after Samuel escaped their grasp.
" Yeah, mine too. My bruises also got much lighter; they were bright red when I woke up." Mayra also noticed changes in her body.
" Also, is it only me, or are you feeling it too?"
" No, I felt it too." They couldn't explain it, but after spending an hour pleasing Samuel, they felt a certain way inside them. It was no wonder, as Samuel's abilities were levelling up, especially his Harem title, which he didn't notice.
It unlocked even more features, and the most important was perks regarding his partners who held a certain amount of love for him. The changes were minuscule, but they would surface more as time went on, but they had to be revealed in the future.
