"Ben. Why don't you put Sapphire to sleep" Elizabeth asked after dinner

"Sure Mom" Benjamin said, picking up a drowsy Sapphire in his arms.

Sapphire laid her head on her uncle's shoulder and clutched his collars in her chubby little fists.

"I shifted her cot to our bedroom Ben. Put her to sleep there" Elizabeth added and Benjamin nodded in understanding

Isabella's spine stiffened in nervousness as she heard Elizabeth.

Her mother had scared her before leaving, telling her about wedding nights and marital relationships. The thought that Sapphire would be there with them at night had been her only reassurance.

As soon as Benjamin left with Sapphire Elizabeth turned to Isabella with a smile.

"Come. I will take you to your room"

Isabella stopped on her tracks, looking at the bedroom in horror.

The bedroom was decorated with roses and scented candles. It was not the elaborate wedding night style setting. But yet, it was giving her the palpitations.

"Isabella, I know this marri

    "Do you know what day it is?" Benjamin asked Isabella teasingly as he bent his head to kiss her on her lips.She was in his late mother's rose garden, which they had turned into a safe play area for the children, and Benjamin had just returned from a business meet, out of state. "Ofcourse I do remember" she said laughing and kissed him back. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see the children playing. Seven year old Juliana, Elena and Julian's daughter had come over to play. Their twin daughters, who had been born eighteen months ago was there, and ofcourse - her secret favourite - Sapphire, who was firmly preventing the twins from fighting over the toys. Like all children, theirs were individual and unique, and that was how she loved them, individually and uniquely, just as she could love the new baby who was due to make his or her arrival in another four months’ time. The new baby was not planned. But he had come along and that was a happy accident. They would love the n

    "So today you are going home. What a pity" the nurse teased Isabella. "We are going to miss seeing that handsome husband of yours." Isabella gave her a brief smile. She had grown so used to her hospital bedroom these last two weeks. Felt so safe there that she felt reluctant to leave. Everyone had been so kind to her; so protective of her. So ready to reassure her that she was very brave and very lucky. Her worst injury had been the blood she had lost where the metal had pierced her flesh, but even the scar from that would fade in time, the doctor had assured her jovially. Her back had been badly bruised. So badly that she had been black and blue, but by some miracle no permanent damage had been done apart from a few fractures of some of her bones, which are thankfully on the way to healing after extensive surgeries. The scratches that had covered her face had also totally healed, and now the doctor had decided that she was well enough to leave. To go home… Home to Benjamin a

    It took Benjamin less than half an hour after the police had informed him about the accident to reach the scene. He had driven there far faster than Lillian, his heart pounding with dread with each passing second Sapphire, they had told him, was fine. "And Isabella? My wife?" There had been a brief pause. "She is trapped in the back of the car. She must have thrown herself over the baby to protect her and the force of the collision has pushed the whole of the passenger seat of the car into the back seat and over her" they had told him When Benjamin reached the scene of the accident it was crowded with people. "Your wife will have to be cut free" the police officer told. His heart buckled and twisted, tearing him apart. He had to be with Isabella and nothing, no one was going to stop him. "I must go to my wife" he told the policeman grimly. "She is unconscious at the moment." The policeman frowned. "There has been a spillage of fuel caused by the collision. And it isn’t saf

    "Please" Isabella begged Lillian. "You are driving much too fast.""Poor little wifey. What are you trying to do? Make me slow down so that your wonderful macho husband can catch up with us? No way!" Lillian laughed. "No way do I stop until we’re back at my home and then, my dear, Sapphire and I will be on the first flight to UK where we will stay until your precious husband comes to his senses." Isabella winced as she was thrown against the car door when Lillian took a turn There was no way Sapphire could endure being driven even a few miles at such a break-neck speed without being sick, never mind all the way to the evil woman's home, wherever it was. And thanks to Lillian all the baby had was the clothes she was wearing. Isabella had never in the whole of her life hated anyone as much as she loathed and detested Lillian. How could she do this to any child, never mind her own grandchild? But Isabella already knew there was no point in trying to reason with her. Sapphire was s

    21."Finally. This is over and I can get on with my life now" Benjamin said as he stepped out of the court with Gabriel beside him. "Did you inform at home?" Gabriel asked "No. Let me" Benjamin said and dialed Isabella's number. "Benjamin?" Isabella answered the call on the second ring. "Bella. It's over" Benjamin said "In our favour right?" Isabella asked anxiously. "Of course. Where is Sapphire" Benjamin asked "Here. With me" Isabella said "Give her a loud kiss from me" Benjamin said and Isabella chuckled. "Will do. Are you coming home now?" Isabella asked "Yes. There are certain formalities left. Some papers to be signed. I will be home after that" Benjamin said "Was Lillian there?" Isabella asked "I didn't see her Bella. She knew she wouldn't be winning the case. So she bailed out" Benjamin said with relief. He honestly do not want to see that woman's face again. "Okay then. Come home soon. We are waiting for you" Isabella said as she caressed little Sapphire’s head

    "That's great news Gabriel" Benjamin told Gabriel through phone. Gabriel had called to inform that the final verdict of their case will be in their favor tomorrow. "Keep Lillian away Benjamin . The woman might try something" Gabriel said "I will handle it uncle. Don't worry" Benjamin said and hung up the call. "Benjamin? One Mrs Lillian Thompson is here to meet you" Claire said coming inside his cabin. "Tell her I'm not here" Benjamin said dismissively. A few minutes later, Benjamin frowned as he heard the demanding knock on the door of his cabin. "Benjamin, I know you’re in there." His frown deepened as Lillian walked in, with a frantic Claire trying to stop her. "Claire. It's okay. I will manage" Benjamin said and Claire left "I’ve been thinking…about Sapphire", she told him coolly. Benjamin simply raised an eyebrow. "She is my granddaughter and that means the world to me, but I can see the situation from your point of view. Eleanor was the closest you had of a sib
