Elle screamed as she entered the mansion, Mnie wasn’t downstairs so she went to her domain upstairs.


    ”Lanie!” Elle screamed when she as soon as she got to the living room and saw Mnie sitting on one of the couches.


    ”Today was very fun!” Elle grinned.


    ”I know, it is written all over your face,” Mnie smirked.


    ”Yeah, when we’re talking about a perfect gentleman, my Tyler will be the first person to be talked about. Flynn needs to learn from him,” Elle said and Mnieughed.


    ”What? My Tyler? Unbelievable. Since when did Tyler be a perfect gentleman?” Mnie asked giggling.


    “You can’t know since he is just a friend to you. Earlier at the restaurant, he was like, ‘I hope you’re not pressurized that I asked you on a date sooner than you might have imagined, I couldn’t wait to see you again.’ Gosh! Mnie that was the sweetest thing I’ve heard in so many years,” Elle said excitedly, hitting her feet on the ground.


    ”I can’t believe what I’m hearing though. But I’m very happy for you, babe,” Mnie smiled.


    Elle sighed deeply and took Mnie’s hand in hers.


    “Mnie,” Elle whispered, trying to control the tears that were threatening to fall.


    ”Mnie, I don’t want to die,” Elle cried out.


    ”I want to live very long, I want to be with the person I love for many many years. I don’t want to die,” Elle cried and Mnie pulled her into a hug.


    ”You’re not going to die, Elle. You will live long and be with the man for many years,” Mnie patted her.


    ”You don’t understand, Lanie,” Elle looked into her eyes.


    ”I’m suffering from Huntington’s disease. I inherited it from my Mother. My mum died of that disease. I don’t want to die,” Elle cried.


    “Elle, why don’t you visit the hospital to…”


    ”I don’t want to go there again. I was diagnosed with the disease there and I don’t want to die there. My mother died of that disease in the hospital that diagnosed her. I don’t want to go to the hospital,” Elle snapped.


    ”Okay, it’s fine if you don’t want to, I understand. But… Did you tell Tyler about it?” Mnie asked.


    ”You want me to tell him I’ll be dying soon!?” Elle creased her brow.


    ”I just think it will be better if he knows sooner than him finding out veryte,” Mnie said.


    ”What if he hates me because of that?” Elle raised a brow.


    ”If I tell you Tyler is fighting Cancer, will you hate him?” Mnie asked.


    ”Of course not!” Elle whisper-shouted.


    ”Then I don’t see any reason Tyler will hate you. But, it’s up to you. I don’t want to be the reason you do anything. Just be good,” Mnie smiled.


    ”Can’t you be the reason?” Elle giggled and rested her head on Mnie’s shoulder.


    ”Is that your room?” Elle pointed at the room beside Flynn’s room.


    “Yes, how did you know?” Mnie asked.


    ”It is beside Flynn’s room, of course,” Elle answered.


    ”What if it were that room?” Mnie pointed at the room with the golden door Flynn had told her not to try entering.


    ”That? I doubt Flynn will allow you to stay in there,” Elle answered casually.


    ”Why? Is there something In there?” Mnie asked.


    The curiosity was killing her again.


    Why would Flynn forbade her from going to that room and why did Elle doubt if Flynn would let her stay there.


    ”Huh?” Elle widened her eyes.


    ”Why won’t Flynn let me near that room?” Mnie queried.


    ”Nothing… I don’t know. You do not expect me to know that, right?” Elle forced a smile.


    ”Well, I do expect you to know something,” Mnie said.


    “I don’t know anything. Is kyle around?” Elle stood up.


    ”Huh? Oh, he left a few minutes after you had left,” Mnie answered.


    These people were hiding something from her.Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    ”Let’s go downstairs. I’ll go first, meet me downstairs, okay?” Elle smiled and hurriedly left the room.


    Mnie stared at the door of the room closely and sighed deeply.


    ~Later at night


    Flynn looked around the living room and didn’t see Mnie but Elle and Kyle whose faces were glued to the television.


    ” Where is Mnie?” He stood in front of the television.


    “Flynn, get away from there!” Elle yelled.


    ”Gosh, I need to see who the gunshot met, Brother!” Kyle screamed.


    ”Where is Mnie?” Flynn asked again.


    ”Did you see her here? Don’t you know she will be in her room? Just get away from here this instant, Flynn!” Elle screamed and Flynn walked away.


    Those spoilt brats!


    Flynn hissed as he ascended the stairs.


    He got to the living room upstairs and didn’t see Mnie so he walked towards her room.


    He knocked on the door and turned the knob of the door and entered the room.


    He looked around the room and Mnie wasn’t there, he turned to leave when the door of the bathroom opened and Mnie stepped out.


    ”Hey!” Mnie screamed.


    Flynn stared at her and smiled, she was wearing a robe so why was this woman conscious of her body.


    ”Don’t you know how to knock? Were you not taught? How dare you enter my room without my permission?” Mnie asked furiously.


    ”You’ve entered my room without permission too so why are you furious because of this?” Flynn smirked and walked towards her.


    ”I am ady! I could have been naked, didn’t you think of that?” Mnie snapped.


    ”Oh, I didn’t think about that. But I don’t have a problem seeing you naked,” Flynn smirked.


    ”Hey! Did you have a death wish!?” Mnie rushed towards him, pointing her right index finger at him.


    ”No, I’m just telling the truth. As a matter of fact, I’d like to see you naked,” Flynn said.


    ”You motherfvcking pervert!” Mnie rushed towards him and hit him on the chest while Flynn onlyughed.


    ”Sorry, I’m only telling you the…”


    ”Shut up!” Mnie covered his mouth with her palm hurriedly before the tycoon say nonsense again.


    Flynn stared at the woman before him, he inhaled deeply and held her hand gently then removed her palm from his mouth.


    Mnie looked at the man who was only a few inches from her.


    Why must her heart decide to y this kind of beat now?


    Oh God, Flynn’s touch had an effect on her.


    She turned to leave and Flynn pulled her closer.


    ”Where are you going?” Flynn smiled.


    Flynn managed to control himself even though it was hard. Thisdy surely did not wear anything under the robe as her breast pressed against his chest tightly.


    And it had an effect on him.


    ”Let go of me,” Mnie whispered.


    Flynn smiled and only pulled her more closely as the scent of her shampoo hit his nose. He inhaled it deeply and then ced his mouth on her neck.


    ”Flynn,” Mnie called him.


    He didn’t answer and kissed her neck sending a tingling sensation down her spine.


    After a minute had passed, Flynn stopped kissing her neck and lock his gaze with hers.


    ”Mnie… What have you done to me?” Flynn whispered.


    Mnie creased her grow, what was this tycoon saying?


    Wasn’t he the one that wronged her?


    Why was he acting like she was the one that offended him?


    ”You…”


    Mnie didn’t get toplete her sentence as Flynn’s lipsnded on her lips.


    Mnie refused to kiss him back at first, but… His lips were heavenly!


    Why could she not refuse this man?


    She ought to be mad at him.


    No, she was very mad at him but she can’t seem to push him away.


    She really wants to get lost in the kiss.


    Why was she longing for the man she met not up to two weeks?


    Of course, the tycoon was very irresistible.


    Mnie closed her eyes and the tears that welled up in her eyes fell.


    Flynn was still kissing her when he felt another taste… It was salty.


    Was she crying?


    He broke the kiss and looked at her.


    ”Did I hurt you?” He asked, raising her chin.


    ”Flynn… Leave my room please,” Mnie said, the tears not stopping.


    ”Why are you crying?” Flynn cupped her cheek.


    ”Just leave my room now,” Mnie cried out.


    ”But… But why?” Flynn creased his brow.


    ‘You killed my dad and brother,’


    Mnie said inwardly.


    ”Just leave,” Mnie turned her back at him.


    ”Okay. I’ll do that if that will make you better. I’m sorry if I hurt you, okay,” Flynn kissed her hair and walked out of her room.


    Mnie walked to the door, locked it, and sat on the floor.


    Why were things going this way?


    Why was it Flynn?


    She stood up from the floor and entered the bathroom.


    She looked into the mirror and her eyes caught a hickey that was on her neck.


    Why did she even allow this man to kiss her neck?


    Now, he left a hickey.


    ~


    Flynn sat at the edge of the bed and groaned slightly.


    Why did Mnie look like someone who was in pain?


    Was she really angry about the wedding or is there something else?


    Flynn ran his hand through his head then massaged his temple.


    Worst still, this headache was really eating him up.


    He grabbed his phone and opened it, he went to the gallery section and clicked on Mnie’s picture that Devon had sent to him during his investigation about Mnie.


    Flynn smiled as he looked at the pictures, Mnie was a beautiful woman and he knew.


    At first, when Devon sent those pictures, he looated her so much because he felt hurt that ady like her could knock him down.


    But after three months, he was always eager to see new pictures of Mnie from Devon.


    Even when the guy took long in delivering the pictures, he got so mad at the guy.


    Well, Devon only thought his boss only needed her pictures to know when to strike.


    But Flynn knew that he liked the woman even before he met her.


    He liked Mnie Tatum.
