Be My Side (Completed) ✔

46. Mr. Jackson or Nepenthes?

"You're still awake?" Sara enters Dany's room with hot water in a bottle, after lunch and all.

"Yeah! I'm planning your brother's tomorrow schedule." Dany replies by glaring at the laptop and typing.

"Oh! Okay. Here is your...hot water. Mom said to give you", she gives him.

He coughs and says, "Sorry, I'm a little busy. Could you please place it on the table?"

"Okay, sure", places it on the table. "Are you having a severe cold?" She asks.

"Not sever but yeah, I have a cold." He replies by still working on the laptop.

"Dany? I've brought medicine for the cold. I'm...placing next to the water bottle. Don't forget...." She places.

"Yeah! Thank you", Dany immediately replies. "Sara? If you don't mind...I wanna ask about...Mrs.Mille...Never mind. You can carry on", he says and coughs again.

"Yeah! I'm about to leave." She nods. While returning, "It's better to go after seeing him taking medicine with my own eyes", she thinks and sits in the chair beside the bed. She spends so much time but he's still on work. She's feeling drowsy and thinking when he's gonna take medicine and sleep. Even though he's coughing and suffering, besides all he's working. "Really a workaholic". She rolls her eyes and unknowingly falls asleep there itself after some time.

In the morning, around 5:30 am Sara awakes and by stretching her body, she gazes at Dany. He sleeps on the laptop. Sara carefully removes the laptop and sheets him with a blanket and comes out of his room. While coming out, Mrs. Miller opening her room's door, she notices Sara is coming out of Dany's room and perplexes. She already wants to abuse Harris' family. She takes advantage of this matter and plans something.

In the meantime, while Sara is heading calmly to her room, she observes Max sleeping at the couch beside Rose by holding her hand with one arm and holding her pet Bee in the other arm. Quickly, she wakes Max and warns normally, "If anyone sees you like this, you may fall in big trouble." Max understands the situation and sets his arms free from them but meanwhile, he recalls Nepenthes, that is, Mr. Jackson, and checks him in the room. After confirming he's still sleeping, immediately Max rushes to Jas' room. At that time, I have already awakened and opened the door. Max after glancing at Jas, resting on the bed relaxed, he hugs me tight and reveals that Nepenthes is non-other than, Mr. Jackson. I'm astonished to hear it.

"What are you talking, Max?" Sara asks out of shock.

"Yeah! I'm talking truth", Max reveals what has happened yesterday's night to Sara and me.

After that, Mr. Jackson in a disturbing way has left the mansion by informing my parents. Once after he left the mansion, Max has gathered everyone at the lawn.

"Dany? You witnessed when was my mom adding sleeping pills in the tomato soup, right?" Max questions straightly.

"Yeah", Dany nods.

"See! Yesterday, when we have come into the mansion, I have doubted Mr. Jackson, cause of keen observation of his face cuts with the picture of young Nepenthes. Even, Nick's mom also expressed that she to have confused about his appearance. After that, I have seen my mom adding pills in the soup. Within a sec, there flashed an idea in my mind. When Dany came out and worrying about this matter, I calmed him and played a drama at the dining table." Max clears their doubts to some extent. "Throughout the night, I have kept an eye on Mr. Jackson after we have shifted to the guest room. And when Sara has wakened me in the morning, I got a clear picture of the whole scene. That is since he has slept deeply he couldn't plot any harm in the night. This is clear that Nepenthes is Mr. Jackson." Max confirmed.
