《Love Beyond Control》 A Walk To The Unknown Future E was lying hopelessly on the cold veranda with her head ced on a worn out ¡°Ghana must go¡±; a bag which was made up of her old fashioned dresses. In tears, she kept turning and turning on the cold veranda till the early morning cock crowed. With red and swollen eyes, E stood still as she was lost in thoughts. Today was her wedding ceremony with a disabled and disfigured man who, ording to him, got burned at the age of three. E had earlier made up her mind to run away from Mr. Madison¡¯s family. She was a poor orphan who had no background and family. She didn¡¯t know her biological parents, any family members or where she came from. All she knew about herself was that she had been working as a maid in Mr. Madison¡¯s house as far back as when she can still remember. Apart from this information, she had no idea of who she really was. All her life, E had been hated and maltreated by this family and the reason they gave to justify their ill treatment was that her parents owed them a lot of money and so, she was given to them as a ransom. While she was still lost in thoughts, Maya ran out through the back door and poured a bowl of cold water on E, the cold from the water and morning breeze was nothingpared to the cold in her heart for she has never known how it feels to be warm. The next second, Maya dashed into the house and stumbled into her bedroom, she opened her wardrobe and picked up her electric iron and sockets it into the distributor. Standing at akimbo with an evil smile, she looked at the hot iron and said evilly. ¡°It¡¯s not a bad idea for a sister to give her sister a farewell mark so that if they crossed paths again in the future, she will recognize her¡± Noticing that the iron was very heated, she dashed out of her bedroom with the iron and vanished down the stairs as though she was being chased by death¡­ E suddenly regained herself and sighed as tears flowed uncontrobly down her cheeks soaking all the dress around her chest. She had no idea that her face was being targeted with a hot iron but coincidentally, she had turned to walk into the garden and something hit her very hard on her back and before she could even turn to see what it was, she felt the flesh on her back being pulled, and skinned mercilessly. She did not have time to think straight because the pain on her back was unbearable. She tried to creep away but someone was pushing her down with all her might with the same object that seemed to have skinned her flesh. With gnashed teeth, she gathered all her strength and stood up. Maya didn¡¯t see thising so before she could understand what was happening, shended on the ground with her back hitting the ground so hard. A sharp cry escaped her mouth that ran directly into the house and into her parents¡¯ ears who were still cuddling under the quilt. As if they were struck by lightning, they dashed out of the bedroom barefooted. Maya, as the spoiled brat that she was, quickly passed the iron to E. ¡°Take this back to my room¡± Just as she took the iron and was about to turn and walk into the house, Maya suddenly looked at her parents with a sorrowful face and without any question, Mr. Madisonnded a deadly p on E¡¯s right jaw and she lost her bnce. Just as she manages to gain herposure, Mrs. Madison pped her other jaw pushing E to fall to the ground and hit her already burned back. She groaned out in pains and realising that her parents are about to let go of E, Maya stood and felt on her mother¡¯s chest while crying and cursing; ¡°Mom, dad; how can you let her go? I only came out to give her some hints about a wedding day but she almost got my face burned with the iron.¡± ¡°What did you just say?¡± Asked Mrs. Madison With so much hatred burning within her, Maya pointed at E. ¡°Why don¡¯t you ask her?¡± E who was still on the ground in pains suddenly felt a sharp pain on her chest and as though she was about to take thest bullet, she supported her legs with her hands and she painfully stood up and stared at the Madisons with gritted teeth as if she was suppressing her pains to say something. Mr. Madison scanned her from head to toe and asked impatiently ¡°What do you have to say?¡± With eyes as though they were about to be shot forever, the word ¡°I¡¯m sorry¡± escaped her mouth like a whisper. Crossing her hands on her chest, Maya pretended she didn¡¯t hear anything and arrogantly asked. ¡°What did you just say?¡± E had almost by-passed Maya but suddenly came to a halt when she heard her and without a second thought, she forcefully raised her voice in pain and coughed out. ¡°I¡¯m sorry Young Mistress¡± Mrs. Madison scanned her from head to toe and covered her nostrils as she yelled out. ¡°You stinky poor thing, hurry up and freshen up, let¡¯s hurry to the City Council for the signing of your marriage.¡± Immediately E heard the word marriage, she suddenly stopped on the same track and without looking back, she tilted her head from left to right in disappointment and walked into a small bathroom in the gate man¡¯s house attached to the gate. After she freshened up, she picked up a faded towel and dried her face gently. She moved to her neck and other parts of her body. When she was done, she stretched her hand and her handnded on a small but old body cream container. She dropped some body cream on her right palm and after she covered it, she mixed the cream and gently brought her hands to her face while looking at the mirror but her actions soon came to a halt and she wondered aloud. ¡°Didn¡¯t I just wash my face? Where is all this water from? E, there¡¯s no need to cry because no amount of tears will save you.¡± Without hesitating, she applied the cream on her palms on her body before she picked up the faded towel to wipe her face. An impatient voice rang from outside ¡°Where is this useless girl? Better hurry up, we can¡¯t keep your husband and his people waiting.¡± Mrs. Madison stormed back towards the car. Meanwhile after hearing that her husband was already waiting at the Civil Council, E broke down in tears again but in the next one minute, she was already done dressing up. With her eyes fixed on her old ballery white shoe, she walked out of the gate man¡¯s house in aplete state of abandonment. As soon as she stepped out, she couldn¡¯t help but to hold on to the edges of her worn out gown as she took questionable steps towards the Madisons¡¯ convoy. As she got closer, she lifted her right hand to open the car door but all the three cars suddenly sped up causing her to lose bnce but couldn¡¯t fall because she managed to bnce herself with her eyes still fixed on the three cars speeding off. After she wiped her eye, E hurried towards the gate and just as she was about to step out of the gate, she ran into Nanny Ruth; an olddy in herte forties who happens to be Maya¡¯s nanny since the very moment she had her first cry. With eyes full of pity, nanny Ruth scanned her pathetic cream white gown and sighed. The roughly stitched section on her right side of the gown was very visible and the ck thread used to stitch her gown was very obvious. With a painful smile, she greeted nanny Ruth without even ncing at her for once. ¡°Good morning ma¡¯am¡± Without responding to her greetings, nanny Ruth could see through E; her fears, worries and all the questions going on in her mind could be seen just by looking at E¡¯s sorrowful face. ¡°Come with me.¡± She said and walked past E without giving her a chance to refuse but she still managed to decline her request. ¡°Ma¡¯am, I¡¯m already runningte and I don¡¯t know what fate holds for me if I keep everyone waiting.¡± Nanny Ruth turned and scolded her with so much concern. ¡°Are you going to appear in front of your husband, his family and well wishers dressed like a beggar who has neverid hands on a dor?¡± Tears flew down freely from her eyes as if the question nanny Ruth just asked her were daggers hitting hard on her heart. She fell to her knees and cried out like an abandoned chick whileining. ¡°Ma¡¯am, where else can a dead man fall from his grave? I¡­ I don¡¯t mean to disgrace myself nor anyone ma¡¯am. You know this is my best outfit.¡± She waved her hand in an approving manner before throwing $20 towards E. ¡°Get a cap and hurry off, you know your masters and what they are capable of doing especially to you.¡±Original content from N?velDrama.Org. The Groanings Of A Bride E flew towards the money as though it was about to disappear. As soon as she picked it up, she dashed towards nanny Ruth and gave her a tight hug which took nanny Ruth by surprise. ¡°Ma¡¯am please let me hug you please¡± Without waiting for her to respond, E buried her face on nanny Ruth¡¯s right shoulder and hugged her emotionally. She let her cry on her shoulders for some time. Just when she opened her mouth to say something, E suddenly sobbed and spoke out. ¡°Ma¡¯am, thank you for being a mother to me. Thank you for being my source offort. I¡¯m scared I might die soon without thanking you.¡± She looked around the mansion before she continued ¡°Ma¡¯am, thank you, I¡¯m finally leaving this mansion and I might never see you again, please never forget about me. Ma¡¯am I will go ahead.¡± Nanny Ruth gently patted her back before smiling at her. ¡°Take care of yourself E.¡± E nodded and ran out of the gate and kept running till she finally stopped a cab. After settling in the cab, she quickly told the driver where she was heading to and in half an hour, she finally arrived in front of the City Council. She alighted from the taxi with so much fear and gradually stepped into the premises. The first wedding of the day seemed to have just ended and they were taking pictures gleefully. As she walked past them, everyone including the photographer turned towards her direction and she could hear all their whispers. ¡°Is this the bride of that ugly human being on the wheelchair?¡± Asked girl A ¡°I think so, you don¡¯t need a soothsayer to tell you that¡± Replied girl B ¡°But why will she dress like this on her wedding day?¡± Cried one of the onlookers ¡°Isn¡¯t she one of the youngdies of the Madisons?¡± said Gaius ¡°Who told you that? She was given into that family as a ransom for her parents¡¯ debt.¡± Said Isaac This struck Pandora¡¯s heart like a tornado and before she could envisage what was happening, her chest was already soaked with tears. She had never known who she really was because all her life she had lived with the Madisons. Something suddenly struck her and she turned and stumbled towards the crowd of gossips and the whole ce suddenly fell into dead silence. She looked at all their faces but couldn¡¯t dictate who just made the sentence but one thing was sure, it was the voice of a gentle man. Seeing a group of three gentle men, she forced a smile and went towards them. As if she had a swollen vocal cord, she smiled and asked them. ¡°Please someone just said I was given into the Anthonies as a ransom for my parent¡¯s debt. Please I¡­¡± ¡°Did they send you? Go back to those who sent you and tell them you didn¡¯t see us.¡± Retorted Gaius ¡°That¡¯s right Miss, don¡¯t act innocent in front of us. Do you want to sell us to the Madison? With teary eyes, E suddenly remembered that she was here for her wedding. In order to avoid trouble, E hurried up to a security guard who led her into the main hall. As soon as she stepped at the door, everyone turned and stared at her. Some sympathised with her, some were those who came to mock andugh at her, especially Maya and her crew. Others were just indifferent. After giving a meaning to all their gazes, E bent her head and looked at her feet as she walked up to where the groom was but after taking about fifteen steps, E¡¯s eyes widened in shocked when she lifted her eyes and saw her supposed husband. she turned to run out but another voice in her scolded her and asked her to go back while the other voice kept persuading her to run out. While she was still thinking of which voice to obey, she heard people whispering behind her back.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Isn¡¯t she a young mistress from the Madisons?¡± Said Girl B ¡°How can that be? Everyone knows that the only young mistress from the Madisons¡¯ is Maya.¡± Said Girl A Girl Cughed out silently before saying mockingly. ¡°Just look at what she is putting on. And to think that her terrible outdated gown also cuts across her knees is driving me crazy¡± As they continued to whisper, the disfigured crippled man on the wheelchair remained indifferent. He looked so terrifying as almost one part of his right jaw had been burned off. His best man stared at E back and bent a little and whispered something into Elion Copper¡¯s left ear. Cindy looked at E from head to toe; her hair was natural as though it has never been oiled. It was neatlybed and tied into a ponytail. After examining E from head to toe, she turned to Maya and questioned her. ¡°Maya, isn¡¯t she your domestic servant who happens to be your distant rtion?¡± She was so loud that Mr/Mrs Madison equally heard her clearly. Maya looked at her parents who pretentiously smiled back at her and she equally looked at Cindy and nodded with a pretentious smile. Cindy was shocked by the revtion. ¡°Then why is she dressed like this? At least today is her special day.¡± Hearing this, Maya smiled evilly and nced at her parents who motioned her as though to say it¡¯s time. After she ran her eyes at everyone in the hall, she suddenly stood up and yelled at E to the dismay of everyone. Steven equally looked at her in anticipation and after seeing that she has sessfully drawn the attention of everyone, she stood up and stormed towards E shading crocodile tears; ¡°E why are you so heartless? Why do you want to give a bad name to my family?¡± E was stunned by her acting skills. Maya saw how pale E had be and became very bold again to disgrace her further. ¡°E, what happened to the dress my parents bought for you?¡± E was shocked to the core because she couldn¡¯t recall the dress Maya was talking about. E asked her with a weak voice. ¡°What dress Miss Madi¡­ Before she could finish her sentence, Maya gave a very hard p on her cheek which shocked everyone except the groom. Marrying The Rejected Cripple By the way, it was his first time to meet thisdy and he began wondering why she decided to put on rags on her wedding day. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you E? You really want to lie that you aren¡¯t the one in that picture?¡± She ran back to her seat and brought out her phone from her bag. Under everyone¡¯s gaze, she opened her gallery and zoomed a picture and showed it to everyone and everyone was stunned. She turned to E and showed the picture to her. After she looked at the girl in the picture, cold sweat broke out of her forehead because the girl in the picture was actually her. E closed her eyes with tears rolling down uncontrobly, for she hadn¡¯t forgotten all that transpired on that fateful day. Mrs. Madison and Maya had taken her to a bridal shop and had chosen a dress for her personally. Everyone in the shop praised her for taking time out of her busy schedule just to pick a wedding dress for her external family. That morning, Mrs. Madison had persuaded Maya to lend her makeup kit to E and one of her red gowns that cut across her knees of which it was only after she had given Maya $2000 that she unwillingly dragged E into her bedroom. After she applied light make up on E¡¯s face, she threw the red gown on her face, and after grabbing the gown, she sincerely thanked Maya before returning to the veranda where she slept to dress up. After she dressed up, they left together and got into the same car which took them to the bridal shop. As they alighted from the car, all eyes were on them and many envied the family of mother and two daughters. While at the shop, the manager personally attended to them giving them a VIP treatment. She brought out a very nice dress and helped E to measure it, as soon as she did, all eyes were on her. She looked so pretty in her handless wedding dress which cut across her chest slightly over her breasts with sparkling particles of blue diamond falling over her breasts. Everyone couldn¡¯t help but open their mouths in astonishment. E looked so cheerful in the wedding dress. Mrs. Madison brought out her phone and took a lot of pictures. And immediately they were done taking pictures, Mrs. Madison paid for the dress and the Manager personally parcelled it with all the essories and handed it to Maya and that was thest time E saw the dress. Thinking of this, E felt weak and almost fell down but managed to hold her bnce. Seeing that everyone was on her side, Mayanded another p on E¡¯s jaw and she took some steps backward before she could regain her bnce. After she bnced herself and stood up again, she looked at Maya with frustrated eyes because she was tired of the drama. She hadn¡¯t eaten since the previous day and so, she had no strength left to sustain the ps, mockery and hunger at the moment. Maya got closer as if she wanted to support her and gave her a hug but whispered something into her ears. Anyone looking at them will think Maya wasforting her while on the contrary, she was being threatened. ¡°E, my mom and dad said I should warn you. Better behave yourself. No matter what happens, you must insist that you want to marry Elion Copper and if you dare do the opposite of what I¡¯m telling you now, you won¡¯t live to tell the story.¡± After she was done threatening her, she released E with force and failed in such a way that everyone thought E had pushed her to the ground. After standing up from the ground, she looked at E with so much hatred and said in anger.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. ¡°E you are so heartless, my parents have been taking good care of you since when your parents abandoned you, they gave you everything you needed and this is how you want to pay us?¡± When Elion Copper, your soon to be husband, posted on Facebook that he needed a wife, you decided to marry him on your own. My parents refused because they wanted the best for you yet you still didn¡¯t listen and here you are and on top of the fact that your choice of a husband is already a disgrace to the Madisons, you decided to put on rags on your wedding day despite the fact that my parents spent thousands of dors just to get you a wedding dress and all the essories. E, you are so heartless and shameless.¡± E couldn¡¯t hold back her tears anymore. They ran down her cheeks non-stop and she looked at Maya in disbelief. She seemed to have a lot to say but ended up saying nothing because she was very weak and tired but couldn¡¯t help thinking to herself. ¡°After forcing me to marry that man with such terrifying looks, they had the guts to send their daughter to act like it was my decision against their wish. I¡¯ve lived with them for over 21 years and I don¡¯t think I can take their maltreatment anymore and resentment towards me anymore. I better marry Elion Copper than continue to live with the Madisons.¡± E wiped her eyes and stared at Elion Copper with determination and just then the Lord Mayor, dressed in a ck suit, stood up and asked if there was anyone who didn¡¯t want the wedding to hold. Mr. Madison, who had been quiet all along, stood up and spoke to the Lord Mayor with so much respect. ¡°If left for me, I could have said a big no to this marriage but as you can see, my family is a noble family and we can¡¯t force her not to marry the man she has chosen. So, if she is still insisting, then you can go ahead, Lord Mayor.¡± Just then, E walked down the aisle and stood beside Elion Copper who was sitting on the wheelchair in front of the Lord Mayor and smiled. ¡°With all due respect my Lord, this is my wedding and as long as the groom hasn¡¯t changed his mind I am going to get married to him.¡± He Abandoned Me Her At The Altar ¡°You are so shameless E. Why are you so determined to marry this terrifying man? Oh I see, the reason why you want to bring shame into my family is simply because you know that no one can marry a shameless and filthy woman like you and this man too is desperate because nody in her right state of mind can marry him reason why he went as far as publishing his request for a wife on social media. You two are really fit for each other.¡± E tightened her grip on the helm of her gown as though she was about to kill someone. ¡°Of course Maya you don¡¯t need to remind us. We all know how she had been sleeping with all types of men and since she knows no one will marry a filthy woman like her, she has no choice than to marry Elion.¡± She turned to Elion, looked at him with so much disgust before saying mockingly. ¡°I don¡¯t even know why your parents chose to name you Elion as if they were trying topete with the great Elion Copper.¡± There was an outburst ofughter in the hall. Everyone wasughing except for the cold terrifying man and his witness. When everyone least expected it, E suddenly spoke out. ¡°My Lord, my husband and I are ready for this marriage.¡± Elion tilted his head to the direction the voice wasing from and nced at E and didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°It¡¯s preferable to spend the rest of my life with this man even if I don¡¯t know him, than to continue living with the Madisons.¡± E thought to herself and with a smile, she turned and faced Maya who was sitting beside her parents. ¡°Maya, you have always called me a sister and I¡¯ve never asked for any favour from you¡­¡± She looked at Elion¡¯s witness before turning back to Maya. ¡°As you can see, I don¡¯t have a witness. Miss Madison, please do me a favour and be my witness.¡± Maya tightened her fist and was about to burst out in anger when her mom motioned her to go and she smiled evilly, stood up and walked towards E. ¡°E, I¡¯ve always taken you as my elder sister, and dad and mom had always taken you as their daughter and we all want the best for you. Since you have chosen to marry this man¡­¡± She looked at Elion with so much disdain while emphasising every word. ¡°Since you have decided to marry this man, we will all support you sis. So I am going to be your witness.¡± The entire hall burst into whispers ¡°She¡¯s so considerate.¡± A girl in her early 20s cried out. ¡°I¡¯ve always envied the Madisons. They are so sweet.¡± Responded one of the onlookers ¡°The Madisons are indeed saints.¡± Said a man who was in histe 60s ¡°If I was Maya, this disgusting girl would sign her marriage both as the bride and a witness.¡± Said one of Staelle¡¯s friends. ¡°Just imagine the disgrace she has brought upon The Maddisons.¡± Said a girl in a red strapless gown. ¡°As we can see, the couple has their witnesses with them and so, we will get straight to the signing of the marriage.¡± Said the Lord Mayor as he brought out the certificates and showed where the couple should sign followed by their witnesses. Without even a nce at his wife, Elion signed and rolled his wheelchair to face the crowd as if he wanted to scare them. Immediately he faced the crowd, the whole hall fell into exmations. ¡°This man looks like the devil himself.¡± Said the girl in the red gown ¡°I now believe that E has some skeletons in her cupboard. If not, she won¡¯t marry this type of creature.¡± The man in histe 60s said frankly. ¡°This man happens to be Old Master Copper; the richest man from the Eastern City. He is the father of Elion Copper and is the only one aside from Elion and Henry that knows what was happening. ¡°E has really wasted her beauty. How can a beautiful girl like her marry this type of creature?¡± Maya¡¯s friend asked. As soon as E signed, Maya signed and gave E a hug. She hugged her as though E was some sought of garbage which she couldn¡¯t get close to. ¡°E, I wish you a happy ever after.¡± E looked at Maya and said nothing. She had no emotions on her face and no one could dictate whether she was happy, sad or angry. Immediately Elion¡¯s witness signed, he took the certificates and carefully ced them into a sea blue file before he turned, bent and whispered into Elion¡¯s left ear. Elion didn¡¯t wait for the Lord Mayor to introduce them as the newly wedded couple. He simply held the handles of his wheelchair firmly and rolled himself out of the hall without ncing at E. Elion¡¯s witness was called Henry. He was in his early thirties just like Elion and he happened to be Elion¡¯s personal Assistant but since Elion had kept a low profile since he was born, no one knew him nor his Personal Assistant except for their close rtives. Henry Followed Elion without saying a word to E and she remained at the same spot as she witnessed them walking out of her as though she didn¡¯t exist. They finally reached the door and disappeared from everyone¡¯s sight. Tears rolled down E¡¯s eyes and she looked at the floor in order to avoid the mocking gazes from the crowd. ¡°Did your terrifying husband abandon you just after signing the marriage?¡± One of Maya¡¯s friends said aloud, causing others to start questioning E. ¡°How can you marry someone you have never spoken to?¡± Asked one of Maya¡¯s friends.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. ¡°The man himself didn¡¯t even care to greet his then fiance and didn¡¯t even greet his newly bride.¡± Said the man in histe 60s as he sighed and shook his head in disappointment. ¡°E, you are finally married to the love of your life so as of today, the Madisons don¡¯t have any links with you.¡± Said Mrs. Madison ¡°She¡¯s right E, we don¡¯t want to see you in the future. So whether your husband is good to you or not, don¡¯te back to the Madisons.¡± Said Mr. Madison Tears continued to flow down E¡¯s cheeks and after a series of sobs, she wiped her tears sorrowfully as she wondered to herself ¡°So where do I go? I can¡¯t go back to the Madisons and my husband has abandoned me here. I don¡¯t even know where he lives.¡± E kept battling with these questions in her mind and suddenly burst out crying and fell to her knees. Just then, someone coughed at the door and everyone turned towards the door. They looked at Henry who stood still by the door motionless and with no emotions on his face. Everyone was staring at him and he was staring back at them without altering a word and E was confused and scared at the same time whether to walk up to Henry. Married To A Farmer When E finally looked at the door and saw Henry, she quickly wiped her eyes and opened her mouth in shock. Henry stood there looking at her indifferently and after scaring the hell out of her with his indifferent stare, he finally beckoned her toe and without waiting for her, he turned and walked back to the gate of the City Council. E stood up and hurried out of the hall ignoring all the insults, mockeries and stares. As soon as she stepped out, she looked around as if she was looking for her saviour. Her eyes fell on the two men at the gate. One on the wheelchair and the other standing beside the man on the wheelchair. As soon as she saw them, she hurried and finally caught up with them. When she caught up with them, none of them even nced at her. She looked at the cars passing by in embarrassment and bit her lower lip. After a moment of silence, E finally gathered the courage to speak out first to her husband before his brother Henry who is equally her husband¡¯s witness. ¡°Hi, thank you for marrying me. I¡­¡± ¡°You are thanking me for marrying a filthy and shameless prostitute like you. Am I right?¡± Elion vomited these words with no remorse or sympathy to the other party. E, who was smiling shyly, suddenly froze before she bit her lower lip and opened her mouth as though she had something to say but ended up saying nothing to Elion. She looked at Henry and greeted him out of courtesy. ¡°Good morning sir.¡± Henry didn¡¯t reply but bent a little towards Elion and asked him where they were heading to. ¡°Where are we heading to bro?¡± ¡°It¡¯s like you have a busy day.¡± Responded Elion with a cold voice Not at all, I just wanted to hear from you. After waiting for Elion¡¯s response, it didn¡¯te so Henry quietly held his wheelchair from the back and pushed him away from the council while E followed them as if she was lost in thoughts. She didn¡¯t know how long they have walked because all along, she paid no attention to where they were going because she was so lost in thoughts. As they continued their journey, Henry, who was pushing Elion, suddenly came to a halt in front of a very old and dirty building which looked as if the zinc was leaking. As soon as he stopped, E suddenly bumped into his back pushing him to stumble a bit with Elion shaking from the wheelchair. Elion frowned and Henry hurriedly apologised. ¡°I¡¯m sorry big bro. She pushed me¡± Hearing this, E grabbed the hem of her dress like a child who has wronged her father before she apologised. ¡°Please I¡¯m really sorry, I wasn¡¯t looking so I identally ran into him.¡± ¡°What were you thinking about? Oh! You were thinking about all those filthy men that have slept with you right?¡± He waited for E to respond but she didn¡¯t respond. She looked at Elion and apologised with a sad voice as though she was about to cry. ¡°I am sorry.¡± Without a word, Elion looked at Henry who immediately understood what he wanted. He pushed Elion towards the stairs and pushed him into the house through a recently cemented straight ce which seemed to have been arranged to sooth Elion¡¯s wheelchair in and out of the house. When they got into the house, E remained outside. She looked at the old zinc for some time before her eyes left the zinc andnded on the veranda which was covered by spirogyra. The walls of the house were terrible and the surroundings of the house were so bushy. The grass was not tall but made the house and its surroundings look horribly frightful. After staring at the house for some time, E walked to the stairs, she climbed them slowly and finally walked to the door as though she didn¡¯t want to be seen. Immediately she reached the door, she was greeted by a strange scent and she twisted her nostrils unconsciously. ¡°If you can¡¯t bear the scent you better leave.¡± Said Elion who was sitting on the wheelchair and looking at her coldly. E quickly adjusted her face but didn¡¯t smile. Just as she walked into the house, Henry suddenly pushed Elion outside by passing her without a word. When they passed by her, E turned and stared at them as they walked out of the door. Henry suddenly stopped and turned to E. ¡°My brother and I are farmers, we survive through farm work so we don¡¯t waste our time on any other thing other than farming. That said, we are going to the farm¡­¡± ¡°Who asked you to exin anything to her?¡± Ask Elion with anger fuming in his voice ¡°I¡¯m sorry bro. Next time I will ask you first.¡± Said Henry ¡°So there¡¯s going to be a next time?¡± Asked Elion.Original from N?velDrama.Org. Not at all, brother. Henry replied and threw one nce at E before he pushed Elion away. She looked at them till they went out of her sight. Turning into the house, she pinched her jaw to bring herself back to full awareness of her environment. She looked at the dpidated walls which looked like they were falling off already. There was only a small old television which was hung on the wall with a decoder carefully ced just beneath the television on a small nk that was nailed to the wall. There was an old woollen carpet on the middle of the floor with an old wooden table standing on it. Not far from the television was an old clock which was still perfectly okay. E left the living room and walked up to a door which looked like it was a door into the only bedroom. She observed the room and saw that there was a two ce bed size at one corner of the room. There was an old wardrobe which was locked. She stepped out of the room and entered the bathroom. It consisted of a flushing toilet, a shower which was hung on the ceiling and the basic bathroom equipment. After walking back into the living room, E smiled and shook her head in disappointment before speaking out what had been in her mind the minute she arrived. I¡¯m already used to working 24/7 and I think today happens to be one of my leisure days so let me make good use of the time. She Gave Up So Soon E opened the room and peeped into it. She took a bucket from the bathroom and a rag she saw on the veranda whileing in. After filling the bucket with water, she mopped the room, living room, veranda and the stairs which were covered with Spirogyra. She took time to scrub the veranda and the stairs before using the rag to mop the floor and dried all the water. The floor was so clean in such a way that one will think it has just been renovated. When she was done, she carefully took her time to weed all the grass around the house. She couldn¡¯t finish it because it was night already. After retiring back into the house, she took her bath and wore the same dress she had because that was the only one she had. She looked at the old clock on the wall in the living room and it was already past 9:00PM and her husband and his brother were not yet back. She waited till 2:00 AM and finally slept off on the old sofa in the living room which was even shorter than her. Early in the morning, E suddenly woke up as though she had remembered that she was waiting for someone. As soon as she woke up, she checked the time and it was already past 8:00 AM. She yawned and held her stomach. She was very hungry and tired because she didn¡¯t sleep well. She went into the small old kitchen which had just two tes, two small pots, a small bowl, two spoons, one knife, a stove and a small tray. The kitchen was literally empty. She checked around but there were no food stuffs and while her legs were still on the floor, she crossed her arms on the kitchen table in the middle of the kitchen beforeying her head on her crossed arms. Tears rolled down her eyes. While she was still lying on the table, her stomach suddenly grumbled so loud that she almost jumped up in fear. She went to the sink, opened the tap and used her hands to stop some running water from falling directly into the sink. As the water became much on her palms, she brought her mouth to the water on her palms and drank as much as possible. When she felt satisfied, she locked the tap and went out of the kitchen straight to the stairs in front of the living room. She sat on the stairs and after basking in the sun for some time, she looked at the upleted bushy part of the house and the grass on the other part of the house seemed to have increased. She unconsciously frowned and kept her eyes fixed on the ce. After looking at the grass for a moment, she stood up and slowly walked to the ce and bent down to weed. After what seemed like a year, she finally was done weeding and the house looked more presentable. She smiled cheerfully and walked back into the house and took her bath. She was really very hungry so she justid on the sofa in aplete state of abandonment and her eyes kept wandering around. She tried to sleep but the hunger was so much that she couldn¡¯t sleep. She struggled and struggled but there was still no way for her to sleep and she finally stood up from the sofa and subconsciously went out of the house and roamed around the neighbourhood to see if she could get any job around but unfortunately, there were no jobs. ¡°There are no jobs in this neighbourhood. How do I get some money to buy some food stuff? This hunger is bing unbearable. What should I do?¡± Elion and Henry suddenly arrived at the house. Elion, who was sitting on the wheelchair, was the first person to witness the change in the environment. He was stunned how clean the surroundings of the house were. Henry, who had been focused on pushing Elion suddenly stopped and looked at the surroundings of the house in astonishment. Henry smiled and nodded his head in satisfaction but his smile was cut short by Elion¡¯s domineering voice. ¡°What¡¯s funny?¡± A cold voice in front of him. Henry came back to his senses and quickly replied. ¡°Nothing Young Master.¡± Replied Henry ¡°So you suddenly stopped pushing me for no reason?¡± Elion asked. ¡°I got carried away with the work E has done.¡± Henry responded gleefully. ¡°I didn¡¯t know that it takes just a little cleaning up to warm your heart.¡± Elion said mockingly. ¡°Young Mas¡­¡±T¨ºxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°What did you just call me?¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry bro¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯ve been ignoring you but I won¡¯t take it lightly next time.¡± Henry pushed Elion to the door and tried opening the door but realised that the door was locked. He looked for E around the house but couldn¡¯t find her. He called out to her but she didn¡¯t respond. Henry frowned and walked back to Elion. ¡°She¡¯s not around.¡± ¡°She gave up just after a day?¡± Elion smiled victoriously before he continued. ¡°I knew she wouldn¡¯t stand my heat.¡± Slut. Elion¡¯s smile suddenly froze when he heard what Henry had just said. ¡°I don¡¯t think she left bro, she might be around¡­¡± ¡°You are taking sites with a prostitute you don¡¯t even know?¡± Ask Elion with so much anger in his voice. They waited for hours but E didn¡¯t return. ¡°Let¡¯s head back.¡± ¡°Bro, how can we just leave without knowing if she¡¯s find or not?¡± Asked Henry. ¡°Say that again.¡± Elion almost got out of the wheelchair but readjusted when he saw Henry holding his wheelchair. Henry quickly got hold of his wheelchair and pushed him back to the road. Meanwhile E, who wasn¡¯t far from the house, tried to reach out to them but her voice was very low because she was weak and her stomach was equally painful. She tried to walk fast to catch up with them but couldn¡¯t, her vision became blurry and she lost consciousness and fell heavily to the ground. Is She Dead E was rushed to the hospital by an old couple who were in theirte 40s and early 50s but since they lived in very poor living conditions, they looked older than their ages. The couple were on their way back from the Market when they saw the poor girl lying unconscious on the ground. Her face was very pale and she looked malnourished. After she was rushed to the hospital, the doctors quickly rushed her into the emergency room and after a while, they finally managed to handle the situation and she was finally transferred to another bed and pushed out of the emergency room. When they pushed her out of the emergency room, they were greeted with the anxious looks of the old couple and the doctor immediatelyforted them. ¡°Don¡¯t worry your daughter will be alright soon. You know she has chronic gastritis yet you let her go without food for long. Please take good care of her and make sure she eats well in the future.¡± The couple looked at each other as if they wanted to say something but didn¡¯t say anything. The doctor sighed and continued ¡°Get a form at the receptionist and fill in your daughter¡¯s information¡­¡± ¡°Actually doctor, my wife and I were on our way back from the market when we ran into her unconscious body on the ground. We barely know her but she seemed to be from the same neighbourhood as us.¡±Original from N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Oh!¡± The doctor eximed with so much surprise on her face before walking away. When she was finally pushed into the ward, the doctor sent a nurse to get the old couple standing outside. ¡°You can get the couple toe see her.¡± ¡°Right away doctor.¡± Said the nurse as she hurried out. Few seconds after she went out, the nurse came in with the couple following her. The doctor looked at the old couple and said helplessly. ¡°Can you help inform her family¡­¡± ¡°By the way doctor, I am Sam and here is my wife¡­¡± ¡°Oh! my bad. I didn¡¯t bother to find out.¡± Apologized the doctor frankly. ¡°It¡¯s alright doctor, the most important thing is that the youngdy is recovering. Doctor, we have never seen her before but we think she lives in my neighbourhood even though we don¡¯t know where exactly.¡± ¡°My husband is right doctor. We can only apany her till she recovers and gives us her information so we inform her family.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Pay attention to her. She will recover in a few hours. Please try to get her a nutritional meal. If possible, soup so she can drink as soon as she wakes up.¡± The doctor advised as she adjusted herb jacket and went out followed by the nurses. Mrs. Sam walked up to E and gently rubbed her hair. Her face was still very pale and just by looking at her, one could tell that she¡¯s lonely and depressed. After Mrs. Sam was done looking at the paledy, she sighed and turned to her husband. ¡°You should look after her while I hurry home and prepare her some food.¡± ¡°Please hurry up.¡± Said Sam as his eyes turned red and he walked up to E and stood beside her bed. ¡°If she wakes up and she¡¯s willing, we should take her in as our daughter. What do you think?¡± ¡°We can¡¯t do that because she obviously has a family. We are just helping out someone in need not because we want anything in return.¡± Mrs. Sam told her husband and hurried out of the door and gently closed the door as if she was scared of waking her up. Sam was quietly sitting on a chair beside E and his eyes were fixed on her. ¡­ Meanwhile back in Elion Copper¡¯s Company, Young Master Elion was on the phone with ady. Thedy seemed to be angry with Elion because she heard that Elion Arthur had a newdy. ¡°Please you can¡¯t dumb me for anotherdy Elion. I¡¯ve been very faithful and patient with you can¡¯t you see¡­¡± ¡°Mai, I will never be with the samedy for more than two weeks. You clearly went through the dating contract before signing it two weeks ago¡­¡± ¡°I signed it because I knew when you get to be with me for two weeks, you will not stop liking me¡­¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need to stop liking you be¡­¡± ¡°Elion stop giving me such expensive jokes. I almost got a heart attack. I knew you won¡¯t stop liking me¡­¡± ¡°That¡¯s enough.¡± Roared Elion ¡°I won¡¯t stop liking you because I¡¯ve never liked you in the first ce.¡± ¡°What! You are so heartless Elion. Please tell me you are just pulling my legs.¡± Mai sounded as though her whole world had crumbled. ¡°The rtionship ended yesterday and I have already gotten a newdy so get lost.¡± Thedy on the phone couldn¡¯t hold back her tears anymore. ¡°Elion I might be carrying your child¡­¡± ¡°No woman is permitted to carry my child. I personally supervised and ensured that alldies that crosses my path take aftermath pills and you aren¡¯t an exception.¡± ¡°Elion, my dad is one of the shareholder in yourpany, if you break up with me, I will ask my dad to remove all his shares from yourpany.¡± Mai continued to rant at the other end of the phone while Elion got his other phone and ced a call through to Mai¡¯s father. He was in a meeting but as soon as he saw Elion Copper¡¯s call, he immediately stood up in fear and excused himself and answered the call fearfully. Before he could even say hello, Elion interrupted him. ¡°Your daughter has a word of advice for you.¡± The two phones were on his ears. One on the right ear while the other was on the left ear and he brought the one in which he was on call with Mai¡¯s dad closer to the phone in which he was discussing with Mai and with a cold voice, he spoke mercilessly. ¡°Your dad is listening so you can give him the advice directly.¡± After saying that, Elion held the phones in such a way that the two people on the different phones could hear each other. ¡°You are such a jerk Elion.¡± Mai spat in disappointment. On the other phone, one could hear the panic in Mai¡¯s father¡¯s voice. ¡°Mai, are you out of your mind? If anything happens to mypany I will kill you and your useless mother.¡± Mai, who thought Elion was joking, suddenly shut up when she heard her father¡¯s voice. Her dad was trying to beg Elion Copper when he suddenly coughed out mercilessly. ¡°Get lost.¡± Elion spat the two words mercilessly and dropped the calls. After Mai heard the beep sound which indicated that the person on the phone had just dropped the call, she became so angry. She dashed her phone against the hard floor scattering the screen. As if she wasn¡¯t satisfied, she dragged the quilt from the bed and threw it on the floor. She opened the wardrobe and removed all her dresses and threw them on the floor. She yelled at the top of her voice and fell on the floor. She鈥檚 Dead At the hospital, E slowly opened her eyes and looked around. Her face showed that she didn¡¯t know where she was. Her eyes were very white as though she had no blood running through her veins. She was so weak that the couple sitting next to her couldn¡¯t even hear her breathing. Mrs. Sam who was discussing with her husband suddenly turned and looked at E and their eyes met. Thedy shouted in joy and stood up. ¡°My dear you are finally up.¡± Immediately she shouted, her husband looked at E and rushed out to get the doctor. He ran into the doctor outside and told her the good news. The doctor followed him in and after observing E, she sighed and turned to Mrs. Sam. ¡°Please give her something to eat and regain her strength. When she is done eating, let her sleep so she can rest.¡± Mrs. Sam nodded in satisfaction, turned to the Thermos and opened it. She took out enough soup and put it into a bowl. After dishing out the soup, she brought her chair closer to E¡¯s bed and fed her gently. After drinking enough of it, E smiled as if she wanted to cry before thanking the couple in a very weak voice. ¡°Thank you for the food.¡± ¡°You shouldn¡¯t be thanking me my dear. This is the only opportunity my husband and I have ever had to feed a child, it made us feel like parents for the first time and we are so happy about it.¡± Mrs. Sam said as tears welled up in her eyes but she tried all she could to suppress them. With a very weak voice, E told them. ¡°No one has ever fed me either. So I¡¯m grateful.¡± Mr. Sam, who was sitting at the other side of the bed, nodded and handed E a ss of water. She drank the water and Sam helped her to lie back on the bed. Shortly after sheid on the bed, she closed her eyes and slept off. Mrs. Sam stretched out her hand and coaxed her hair passionately. Back in thepany, Elion was busy with work when someone knocked on the door. He frowned lightly before he asked the person toe in. ¡°Come in.¡± His personal assistant walked in with a pile of documents in his hands. After dropping them in order on the table in front of Elion, he coughed lightly before he spoke to him. ¡°Young Master, the conference is in eight minutes.¡± ¡°What about what I asked you to do?¡± Elion asked with eyes still focused on theptop in front of him. Henry adjusted his ck suit as if he was trying to get what he was talking about. After being unable to understand Elion, he fearfully took a step backward before asking him what he meant. ¡°Young Master, you have given me a lot of assignments¡­¡± ¡°If you are tired of doing your job you back off.¡± Elion¡¯s cold voice was low but very domineering ¡°I¡¯m not tired, Young Master.¡± Henry quickly replied before he continued fearfully.T¨ºxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°I was just trying to say that I don¡¯t know the one you¡­¡± ¡°It¡¯s your job to get it all done.¡± Elion said with a lot of emphasis. ¡°I¡¯m sorry Young Master ElionI will¡­¡± ¡°Thedy who was supposed to be carrying my child was supposed to be three months pregnant already¡­¡± Henry immediately froze as soon as he heard his boss. He realised what he was referring to. ¡°Young Master Elion, everything was already arranged but Old Master Elion came up with the issue of marriage and interrupted our ns.¡± ¡°Do you take orders from me or him?¡± ¡°From you sir. But¡­¡± ¡°Get out.¡± Elion finally lifted his eyes and shot a warning stare at Henry who was about to say something but after seeing the anger in Elion¡¯s eyes, he closed his mouth and turned to walk out. Before he could reach the door, he could feel daggers being shot on his back. Just when he was about to open the door, a cold voice sounded behind me. ¡°You have 5 minutes.¡± Henry turned and looked at Elion with pleading eyes and tried to exin. ¡°Young Master Elion¡­¡± ¡°4 minutes 52 seconds left.¡± Elion said while looking at Henry without blinking and Henry had no choice and so, he turned and ran out. Elion Copper stood up and walked towards the ss wall and was lost in the beautiful view of the city. Elion Copper was a very handsome man of 32 years old. He was about 1. 9m tall and had no wrinkles on his face. He was charismatic, elegant, a big shot and everydy¡¯s dream man. He was a man who thought being with onedy for the rest of his life was a kind of imprisonment. He was a yboy who had never dated ady for more than two weeks His father had forced him to get married and he never wanted to be married because he couldn¡¯t bear living with the same woman for the rest of his life. He believed that alldies were full of schemes, and so, he would always make sure to personally observe anydy he has been with to take contraceptive pills. ording to him, he was ready to be a father but didn¡¯t like the woman who will bear his child to know the identity of her child¡¯s father because he believed that if anydy knew that he was her baby¡¯s daddy, she would use the baby to always be around him. So in order to solve this puzzle, he decided to get a child through surrogacy. ¡­ The next morning, E was sitting on the hospital bed discussing the old couple. She told them her name and where she lived. While they were still discussing, the doctor came in and gave the bill to Mr. Sam immediately went out to settle it. E stood up and went out of the ward followed by Mrs. Sam ¡­ Elion was sitting on his wheelchair in front of the old house while Henry was standing beside him. They heard footsteps and turned to the direction of the steps only to see the pale Eing in. Elion frowned and looked like a vampire that was soon to suck on its prey. E suddenly stopped when she saw them. She realised that they must have spent the night outside since she was with the key in the hospital the whole night. Seeing how angry they were, fear caught her heart and she grabbed the hem of her gown and walked up to them. As soon as she stood before them she knelt to exin but Elion¡¯s mocking voice hit her like a bullet. ¡°The prostitute is finallying back home after hooking up with men for the whole day and night¡­¡± Tears welled up on Pandora¡¯s eyes as soon as she heard the word prostitute. ¡°I wasn¡¯t with a man. I¡­¡± Before she could finish her sentence, Elion pped her so hard that she immediately went on conscious and fell down the hard stairs. After she fell, sheid there as though she was dead. Henry quickly checked her breathing and told Elion that she was dead. What Happened To Ella The old couple who had apanied E from the hospital to her house were hiding further away from the house. After seeing Elion and Henry in front of the house, E had asked them to hide there while she went in alone so as to avoid issues. As soon as they saw E fall to the ground after being pped, Mrs. Sam was about to run towards her but Sam stopped her from going. The two of them remained in their hiding sport for a long time. ¡°Who are they and why did he p her?¡± Asked Sam ¡°Why will E stop us from going in with her after seeing them?¡± Responded Mrs. Sam with a question. ¡°But she told us she lived alone right?¡± Sam couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°No. She said she¡¯s mostly alone at home.¡± ¡°Oh! I see. But what do we do with these food stuff and her medical report? We forgot to hand them to her.¡± ¡°The most important thing now is that she should be fine.¡± Exined Mrs. SamOriginal content from N?velDrama.Org. ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Affirmed Mr. Sam Elion looked at Henry again and said calmly but with so much disgust. ¡°Dispose her body.¡± ¡°Bro, your fingerprints on her cheek¡­¡± ¡°Leave no evidence.¡± Elion said with a cold arrogant voice. ¡°I think we can live her in the house and get some poisonous substance into her system so it will look like shemitted suicide.¡± Henry said with a serious face. E who was on the ground was notpletely unconscious. She heard everything that was said but she remained silent and pretended to be dead. Henry took the keys that had fallen from E¡¯s hand after the p and walked back to the door and opened it. After that, he carried her into the house andid her on the floor. Since they were in a haste, he forgot to close the door. As soon as he pushed Elion far away from the house, Sam and his wife ran out from their hiding spot and ran towards the house. E slowly opened her eyes and looked around. Realising that they were gone, she struggled to stand on her feet but was too weak. Just then, Sam ran into the house and dropped the medical report just beside the door and with so much concern, he bent beside E. Seeing that her husband was already inside the house, she dropped the shopping bag and hurried up the stairs. ¡°Are you okay?¡± Sam asked as he held her on the left hand while his wife who had just ran in held E on the right. ¡°Let her rest first before you continue with questions. She should be in great pain, we all witnessed how hard she was pped and how she felt so badly.¡± After taking her to the sofa, E sat and rested her back on the sofa and gently robbed her red swollen jaw with tears flowing down her cheeks uncontrobly. Mrs. Sam sighed and sat beside E and gently stroke her hair as if she wasbing it. She looked at her with eyes full of concern and said ¡°My dear, we saw what happened¡­¡± ¡°Who are those people?¡± Sam interrupted ¡°T-they-they a¡ª.¡± E opened her mouth to talk but ended up crying. After she cried for some time, she finally wiped her eyes, bent her head and spoke out in a very depressed voice. ¡°My- m-my husband and his broth¡­¡± ¡°You are married?¡± Mrs. Sam was so shocked with the news that she interrupted E without realising it. ¡­ After getting what they went to buy from the pharmacy, Henry finally pushed Elion back to the house. When they saw the door open, the two of them were stunned. Seeing that Elion was too focused on the door, Henry quickly exined. ¡°I remember closing the door before we left. I think something is wrong. Could it be that she¡­¡± ¡°Will it not be better if she¡¯s alive? I hate her but I can¡¯t let my hands be stained with blood, especially her promiscuous blood.¡± Responded Elion. Henry didn¡¯t respond but just pushed Elion towards the door. When they approached the door, they heard someone sobbing inside the house. After waiting for some time, Henry pushed Elion into the house. They stood at the door as they were very shocked to see two elderly peopleforting E. E and the couple didn¡¯t realise that two people were standing at the door and so, they continued their conversation like before. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m married. I got married just about 3 days ago. When I arrived here, my husband and my brother-inw left for the farm leaving me alone. Before the day I arrived here, I had not eaten anything and even on the day I signed my marriage which was the day I came here, I still didn¡¯t eat. When I arrived here, my husband and his brother had to catch up with some work on the farm so I was left alone at home. I had some domestic work to do and after doing part of the work, I was very tired and hungry and I decided to take a break. I waited for my husband and his brother toe back but they didn¡¯te back so I finally slept past 2:00AM. When I woke up the next day, it was already past 8:00AM and after Ipleted the work, I was very hungry and tired. I took my bath and went around the neighbourhood looking for any menial job I could do, get paid so I could buy food stuff. After going around the whole neighbourhood, I couldn¡¯t get any job. So I had to return to the house. When I was almost reaching the house, I saw my husband and his brother leaving again and it seemed they came just when I left in search of a job and after waiting for me, I didn¡¯t return so they left. She sobbed so hard¡­¡± Mrs. Sam saw two people with the corner of her eye and was frightened but quickly adjusted herself. When she realised that Elion and Henry were back, she pretended not to see them. She alerted E and her husband but signalled them to remain calm and continue with their discussion. Stomach Ulcer ¡°So, when I saw them leaving, although I was very weak, I tried to run so I could catch up with them but my vision became blurry and I only realised myself when I woke up from the hospital bed yesterday evening¡­¡±This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. After listening to the story, Elion nced at E¡¯s back and frowned slightly. Mrs. Sam wiped E¡¯s eyes andforted her. ¡°You have us now. You see, when my husband just got married to me, we had a lot of misunderstandings from the beginning but now¡­¡± ¡°Why will your husband abandon you on your wedding day?¡± Asked Sam ¡°He didn¡¯t abandon me. They really had something to do on the farm.¡± E quickly replied Mrs. Sam smiled and said cheerfully, ¡°I know you love your husband. If not, you won¡¯t be defending him, and so you have to forgive him.¡± E remained silent and Mrs. Sam continued. ¡°It¡¯s alright if you don¡¯t love him, with time you will learn to love him¡­¡± ¡°I know.¡± Responded E. ¡°You see, when I met him, I was determined to love him. Many people areughing at me because I got married to a cripple but I don¡¯t mind at all¡­¡± ¡°But why will a pretty girl like you marry a cripple?¡± Asked Mr. Sam.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not his fault that he is crippled. When I was told that I was going to marry a crippled man, I did a lot of research and found out that depending on the cause of his disability, it can he corrected medically but even if it won¡¯t be corrected, I won¡¯t leave him as long as he is willing to be with me.¡± ¡°So¡­ ¡± Sam was about to speak when Elion interrupted him. ¡°Who gave you the right to bring in strangers into my house?¡± Elion asked with a very cold domineering voice. The three of them quickly stood up like children who were caught doing something bad. Sam and his wife were so shocked and wondered how a crippled man can have such a domineering and an overbearing aura. E stepped forward but avoided his eyes and quickly exined. ¡°They are the people that helped me when I copsed yesterday. They helped rush me to the hospital¡­¡± Mrs. Sam Interrupted with a calm voice. ¡°We are sorry toe into your house without your knowledge. Actually we came back with E this morning from the hospital and after we parted ways, we realised that we forgot to hand her medical report to her so we came here to give it to her.¡± Elion scanned Mrs. Sam and Sam and nced at the table but didn¡¯t see any medical report and thought he had caught them red handed. With an evil smile, he stretched his left hand and said coldly. ¡°Hand me the medical report.¡± Sam quickly looked around and saw the medical report behind Henry who had been standing quietly behind Elion. Sam hurried towards Elion with empty hands as if he wanted to beg for mercy. Seeing this, Elion smiled and was about to say something but closed his mouth after realising that Sam passed him. Sam picked up the report and before he handed it to Elion, he exined. ¡°Sorry we dropped it by the door. When we walked in, we saw E¡¯s unconscious body on the floor and we couldn¡¯t think straight reason why we threw it here.¡± After he exined, Elion didn¡¯t reply and his hand was still stretched so Sam closed his mouth and handed him the report After taking the report, Elion opened it and read line after line. As he read down, he suddenly went back to the first page as though something strange crossed his mind. He looked at E¡¯s name and realised that her surname was Madison. He looked at it for some time before flipping his eyes back to where he was. He suddenly opened his eyes in shock then threw a quick nce at E and back to the report. Henry had witnessed Elion¡¯s sudden nce and followed Elion¡¯s eye back to the report. He suddenly bent down closer to the report and his eyes focused on the word ulcer. He stood up, looked at E with a questioning look. He looked at Elion and could read through his mind so he quickly asked. ¡°You have a stomach ulcer?¡± With her hands holding tight to the hem of her gown, she nodded a yes. ¡°How did ite about?¡± Immediately Henry asked this question, Elion, whose eyes were buried in the report, suddenly looked at E as if he wanted to get the answer just by looking at her. With her eyes fixed on the floor, she responded with a calm voice as though she was about to cry. ¡°It was caused by gastritis.¡± ¡°I see.¡± Said Henry. Elion didn¡¯t say anything so E remained quiet and pinned to the same spot. After waiting for long, Elion didn¡¯t say anything but kept staring at Sam and his wife. Noticing what he wanted, Sam turned to his wife with a serious face. ¡°What is it with that serious face?¡± Mrs. Sam asked her husband. ¡°It¡¯s good we give the young couple some space.¡± Sam unwillingly exined. ¡°Then let me grab the bag outside.¡± She rushed outside and came in with a shopping bag. As soon as she walked in, Elion¡¯s gaze was fixed on the bag and Mrs. Sam hurriedly exined. ¡°When we left the hospital this morning, we passed through the market and bought some food stuff for E. Please don¡¯t misunderstand us. We weren¡¯t overlooking your position as her husband, just that she has a stomach ulcer and the doctor said she doesn¡¯t need to go hungry. Since we didn¡¯t know you were back, we had no choice than to buy her all of these.¡± Seeing the cold sweat on his wife¡¯s face, Sam stood beside his wife and exined. ¡°My wife and I have no child, and since we came across E, we really can¡¯t get over her. We can¡¯t help but treat her like our own daughter and since she told us this morning in the hospital that she has no parents, we just became aplete family.¡± ¡°Enough.¡± Elion spat with an indifferent voice and one couldn¡¯t tell if he was angry or not. Sam took his wife¡¯s hand and said farewell to E. ¡°E you know the house, please don¡¯t hesitate toe over and say hi if your husband and brother leave you alone at home.¡± E just nodded with her eyes still fixed on the floor. Sam and his wife left without a second nce and the house fell into a grave silence. After rubbing her stomach, E suddenly broke the silence. With a voice full of fear, she asked. ¡°Can I use the kitchen?¡± Elion didn¡¯t respond but gave her a cold but overbearing nce Caught Red Handed E remained on the same spot without saying anything till Elion finally broke the silence. After looking at the pale girl holding a shopping bag Elion scoffed. ¡°You brought in strangers into my house without my permission and equally cleaned the house without any instructions from me or my brother, what makes you think you need my permission before going into the kitchen?¡± E red at Elion and with a low voice, she thanked him sincerely. ¡°Thank you.¡± She hurried into the kitchen and started cooking. Back at the Madisons, E was known for her unique culinary skills and so, everyone loved her food. After about 20 minutes, the aroma from the kitchen was irresistible and Elion couldn¡¯t help but frown slightly then tilted his head towards the kitchen and his eyes wandered into the kitchen and fell on thedy cooking fried rice while humming a song.Original from N?velDrama.Org. E suddenly felt like someone was looking at her and she unexpectedly turned and caught Elion red handed. Seeing that he was caught red handed, Elion looked at E and said mockingly. ¡°I only gave you the permission to cook, I didn¡¯t permit you to look at me or around the house.¡± After saying this, he bnced himself on his wheelchair andid his back and head on the headrest. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± E apologised and continued with what she was doing. Elion looked at her with a mocking smile before rebuking her in his thoughts. ¡°Must you always apologise even when you did nothing wrong.¡± Henry, who enjoyed every moment, couldn¡¯t control his smile. Elion shot a cool nce at him and he coughed lightly and Elion rolled his wheelchair outside in a blink as though he was being chased. E was done cooking and so, she fearfully took short steps towards the living room and was relieved to see just Henry. She looked around as though she was looking for someone and Henry solved her puzzle as though he saw through her. ¡°Your husband is outside and as for the food, he won¡¯t eat so you can just dish yours and mine.¡± E was stunned for a while and opened her mouth to say something but was cut short by Henry¡¯s words. ¡°If you think I¡¯m Joking, you can ask him yourself.¡± E smiled shyly and waved his suggestion. ¡°It¡¯s alright, his brother and you have been with him all your life so you know him more than anyone else and so if you say he won¡¯t eat, then I guess you are right.¡± She returned into the kitchen and dished Henry¡¯s food. When she brought the food to Henry, his eyes widened in amazement. The aroma of the food was breathtaking and the colour of the carrots and green beans made the green colour of the fried rice look yummy. After putting a spoon full into his mouth, Henry nodded in satisfaction and E for the first time in a long time smiled. Elion, who had been at the door observing the two of them, suddenly scoffed. ¡°You are really so cheap Miss E Madison or should I say Miss E ke?¡± Henry and E turned towards the voice but E couldn¡¯t look the owner of the voice in the face so she lowered her head like a child who was being scolded for doing something really bad. ¡°You are indeed very cheap. I have been with countless women and I¡¯ve never seen anydy who gets carried away just by a man¡¯s nod¡­¡± Realising where Elion was driving at, Henry chipped in his opinion. ¡°Bro it¡¯s not what you think. She¡­¡± ¡°Oh! What are you doing? You are defending her? She just smiled at you and you have fallen for her already.¡± ¡°No, that¡¯s not true¡­¡± E interrupted with tears welled up in her eyes. ¡°So I¡¯m lying? Didn¡¯t you try to seduce him just now with a smile?¡± E closed her eyes in anger and only realised what she had done after the house became very quiet in such a way that one could hear a needle dropping on the floor. E got closer to Elion and smiled the same way she did to Henry and asked angrily. ¡°Now tell me, have you been seduced by my smile just now?¡± She spoke to him as though she was scolding a child. Henry, who was still standing at the same spot with a te of fried rice on his left hand and a spoon on his right hand, was so shocked that cold sweat welled up on his forehead. No one has ever spoken to Elionin this manner because he was so hot tempered and merciless but what just happened now really shocked him because no one has ever dared him in this manner. He dropped his food on the table gently and was about walking towards E but suddenly stopped when E gave the nextint. ¡°You just called me Miss E. Why? Am I not your wife? Since we got married you keep calling me names but I¡¯m notining. Why did you get married to me when¡­¡± ¡°Did I tell you I wanted to get married?¡± ¡°It¡¯s everywhere on Facebook. You posted it on Facebook that you were in need of a wife.¡± ¡°Exactly, in need of a wife and not a retired slut.¡± ¡°No matter how you see me, I will never be the person you see me to be nor will I ever be the names you call me¡­¡± E spoke with so much depression in her voice. ¡°Do you think I can pity you? You are such a drama queen. This your sorrowful face can¡¯t touch me.¡± ¡°Why did you sign the marriage certificate?¡± Asked E. ¡°Give me one reason why I should consider you as my wife.¡± E wiped her cheeks in frustration but didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°My dad wanted me to get married, that¡¯s the reason why I got entangled with ady like you.¡± E seemed not to have understood what Elion meant and consoled him innocently. ¡°I understand why you hate me, don¡¯t feel bad for yourself. It¡¯s not your fault that you are disabled neither is it your fault that you got burnt as a toddler. You don¡¯t have to look down on yourself because disability is not inability. She bit her lower lip before she continued. The truth is that I didn¡¯t marry you out of pity¡­¡± ¡°You married me because you have had a series of abortions which caused you your womb. And since you know that a disabled man like me can¡¯t father a child, you forcefully got married to me so that it will be as though you aren¡¯t able to carry a child because your husband is incapable. You want to gain pity from the society right and at the same time cover your shame.¡± The surprised look on E¡¯s face was unavoidable. With a low frustrated voice and with tears running down her cheeks, she asked ¡°Who said all these things to you?¡± Instead of answering her question, Elion took out his phone and yed a voicemail sent to him by Maya. ¡°Mr. Ugly, I don¡¯t know why I am doing this but I think the reason is because it¡¯s not your fault that you are ugly and disabled but it¡¯s my sister¡¯s fault that she is heartless and wicked. E is actually my sister but my family had to cut ties with her because of the shame she started bringing upon The Madisons from when she was just 9 years old. E started selling her body for money at the age of 9, she has had 12 abortions and lost her womb in the process of the 12th abortion. She got married to you just because she wants to use your ipetence to cover up her abortions and destroyed womb¡­¡± While listening to the voicemail, E felt so wronged and she suddenly became very weak and her legs couldn¡¯t carry her again and she fell on her knees. ¡°Surprised?¡± Elion felt fulfilled after seeing how broken E was. Henry, who stood not far from E, opened his mouth in shock. E opened her mouth to speak but couldn¡¯t as her tears overpowered her words. ¡°You were lecturing me just now, why the sudden silence? Are you so shocked that you have been caught red handed?¡± Elion mocked. E looked at Elion as if she was looking at her only hope and asked. ¡°Do you really believe my sister?¡± Elion scoffed and responded heartlessly. ¡°Who will choose to believe a prostitute like you?¡± E, who was kneeling, turned and sat on her buttocks, joined her legs together and wrapped her hands around her knees and buried her face on herps. Elion Copper Is A Shameless Pervert Without ncing at the poor girl raining down tears, Elion looked at Henry with a domineering face and said coldly. ¡°Get me out of here.¡± Henry nced at the te of delicious fried rice one more time before heading towards Elion. Just as he pushed Elion out of the house, they were met with very bad weather and before they could even think of what to do, there was a sudden downpour of rain and they had no choice than to return into the house. E remained at her position and cried her eyes out till she finally fell asleep. It was already dark outside but the rain had refused to stop. Elion became very hungry and nced at the te of rice on the table. Henry witnessed this and smiled lightly, stood up and walked towards the food on the table. He picked up the te and was walking into the kitchen when a cold voice sounded behind him. ¡°Get me some food to eat.¡± Henry was stunned. He turned towards the man on the wheelchair and saw him sitting calmly with his head ced on the head rest. He thought he was hallucinating and so, turned and went into the kitchen. After pouring the food into a trash can, he rinsed the te and filled it with food again. As he went into the living room, Elion suddenly adjusted himself and was about to stretch his hand to get the food when Henry passed by him and sat on the sofa. Henry put the first spoon of rice into his mouth and while he was chewing and his eyes wandering around, his eyes met with Elion¡¯s hungry eyes and it was just then that he realised Elion had actually asked him to get him some food. He rushed into the kitchen and quickly dished out some food and took it to Elion. After tasting the food, he nced at thedy who had wrapped herself up before bringing back his eyes on his food. He emptied the te, ced it on the table before blinking a let¡¯s go to Henry. Henry, who was still eating, was forced to ce the leftover food on the table and pushed Elion out of the house. E didn¡¯t know how long she had been sleeping because when she opened her eyes, it was already dark outside and she was the only one in the house. She gently stood up, went towards the sofa and her eyes fell on the two tes of food on the table and she murmured to herself. ¡°You don¡¯t believe a prostitute¡¯s word but believe in her food to help your hunger.¡± She sat on the sofa and spoke hopelessly to herself.Original from N?velDrama.Org. ¡°What was I even thinking? I thought too highly of myself. He calls me Miss E. He really hates me, I thought it was because he looked down on himself not knowing he actually saw me as a slut. He is so proud and full of himself.¡± The next day, E was walking around her neighbourhood when a ck range rover 2023 blocked her way. She quietly turned and was trying to go round the car without even ncing at the car. Immediately she reached the door to the back seat, a young man of about 28 years opened the door and came out. E just passed him without even looking at him. ¡°Hey beautiful damsel, didn¡¯t you see me?¡± The proud man asked. He was putting on a ck suit and had pocketed his hands. E, who was already having her back against the man, stopped when she heard what the man said. Without looking back, she continued going. ¡°Beautiful damsel I¡¯m talking to you.¡± E continued going and the driver of the man ran after her and stopped her. E turned and before the driver could open his mouth, E blocked his words with an aggressive p. The 28 years old walked up to her with a smile. ¡°Why will a pretty girl like you be so aggressive?¡± ¡°Do you really want to know why? Mr. Man, my name is not ¡°beautiful girl¡±. You look so rich but seem to have a very poor upbringing.¡± Before the man could even say a word, E turned to leave but as soon as she turned, her eyes were met with the cold face of the man on the wheelchair. Elion Is An International Flirt. ¡°Why are you trying to pretend E? Why don¡¯t you continue your discussion with your love bird?¡± E ignored Elion¡¯s provocations and smiled cheerfully before reminding Elion. ¡°With all due respect, I¡¯m in love already. So I have no business with other men.¡± Elion was stunned by this revtion and wondered to himself. ¡°Who is this prostitute in love with?¡± When E left, the 28 years old man looked at Elion and told him swiftly. ¡°She¡¯s hard to get.¡± ¡°She¡¯s just pretending.¡± Elion spat with so much disgust. ¡°Get me out of here.¡± Elion scoffed. ¡°Your wife is ady of integrity.¡± The 28 years old man said. Elion didn¡¯t reply but stared at Henry. Henry pushed Elion back to the house and when they stepped into the house, Elion looked at thedy who was focused on the television and patted his lips before saying provocatively. ¡°When were you nning toe out of your shell?¡± E remained focused on the television and didn¡¯t even look at Elion nor reply to his question. ¡°If Maya didn¡¯t reveal your dark secrets, you will definitely still be trying to act like a saint right?¡± Elion added and E clenched her fist and instead of answering, she went into the kitchen and made them coffee. After she was done, she carefully ced the coffee cups on a tray and took them to the living room. She seemed scared so she took short steps towards Elion and said with a very low but shivering voice while handing him the coffee cup. ¡°Your coffee.¡± She thought Elion wouldn¡¯t take it but was surprised to see him stretch his right hand towards the tray. Henry was really shocked because Elion was very picky when it came to food and who cooks his food. After handing the coffee to them, she stood beside Elion who sipped the coffee elegantly. With her eyes on the floor, E spoke to Elion with a very low voice. ¡°There¡¯s no side stool in this house so if your hand gets weak, you can just drop the cup on this tray in my hands and let your hand rest first.¡± ¡°So, how long are you going to stand here?¡± ¡°Till you are done drinking your coffee.¡± ¡°Are you trying to seduce me?¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I thought it was alright to help out.¡± E turned to leave but was stopped by Elion¡¯s question. ¡°Did I ask you to leave?¡± Elion asked with an indifferent voice which made E take her former position and Elion ced the cup on the tray and rested his head on the head rest. When he finished drinking the coffee, he ced the cup on the tray quietly and E took it into the kitchen and as soon as she returned, Elion asked her the same question he had asked before. ¡°When were you nning toe out of your shell? If Maya didn¡¯t reveal your dark secrets, you will definitely still be trying to act like a saint right?¡± Elion waited for E to reply but the answer didn¡¯te. He looked at E¡¯s blue gown and frowned. ¡°Who gave you that gown?¡± E smiled and said teasingly ¡°Are you jealous?¡± ¡°Jealous of a prostitute? Where did you get money to buy that gown?¡± Seeing that Elion was very angry, she apologised and exinedOriginal content from N?velDrama.Org. ¡°I¡¯m sorry for what I just said. Actually Mrs. Sam bought it for me when she went shopping yesterday.¡± ¡°So you announced to the wholemunity that you don¡¯t have dresses.¡± E clenched her fist and after she calmed down, she replied. ¡°I didn¡¯t. She has been seeing me with the same dress so she got this one for me.¡± ¡°I can see you need a job.¡± Hearing this, E became surprisingly happy which made Elion and Henry to nce at each other in disbelief. They were still staring at each other when E happily exined. ¡°I¡¯ve tried looking for a job around this neighbourhood but haven¡¯t gotten any.¡± ¡°Pack your stuff, I¡¯ve got a job for you.¡± E jumped up in amazement. ¡°Really, thank you so much¡­¡± ¡°Better pack up. We don¡¯t have time.¡± Henry was stunned. He looked at Elion with worried eyes but Elion stared at him as if he wanted to ask if Henry really wanted to oppose him. Seeing the look on Elion¡¯s face, Henry rxed and wanted to say something but was caught up by E who was talking happily to herself. ¡°Pack up¡­, what am I to pack up?¡± ¡°Your belongings. We are leaving this ce.¡± E ran outside to the drying line, picked up the gown she wore on her wedding day and rushed into the room and put it into a small shopping bag. As soon as she came back to the living room, Elion scanned her from head to toe and his eyes finally rested on the Small shopping bag in E¡¯s hands. Seeing that he had been staring at the small shopping bag in her hand, E looked at the floor and quickly exined. ¡°I don¡¯t have stuff so inside the bag is the only dress I have.¡± Elion noded and signalled to Henry that it was time to leave and Henry stepped forward and pushed Elion out of the house followed by E who locked the door and ran after them. When she caught up with them, she cleared her throat and asked. ¡°What¡¯s the job all about?¡± ¡°What can¡¯t you do?¡± ¡°Anything illegal or¡­¡± ¡°Haven¡¯t you been sleeping with men for money?¡± ¡°I¡­¡± E opened her mouth to speak but was interrupted by Elion angrily. ¡°Enough!¡± After a long walk, they finally came across a ck Rolls Royce parked beside the road. Realising that the car was waiting for them, E couldn¡¯t help but asked. ¡°Rolls Royce? Who owns it?¡± ¡°Your new boss.¡± Replied Henry. ¡°Okay, I see.¡± Replied E ¡°Are you happy because you are going to dump me soon for your boss?¡± E didn¡¯t respond. Henry pushed Elion into the back seat and shot the door and sat on the seat beside the driver while E sat on the back seat just close to Elion. This was the first time they were really close to each other and E was very restless and nervous. Half way through the journey, Elion suddenly broke the cold silence that had engraved the car. ¡°What is it with the innocence and nervousness? You always act innocently yet you are the filthiestdy I¡¯ve evere across.¡± Hearing this, E clenched her fist and looked out of the window and when no one least expected, she suddenly asked Elion a question. ¡°So how manydies have youe across?¡± Elion didn¡¯t respond nor looked at her. He rested his head on the head rest and shot his eyes. Seeing that Elion was not interested in the discussion, she shifted her gaze back to the window and slept off. After about an hour and a half, they arrived at their destination and Henry woke her up. Henry helped Elion out of the car and E stepped out and as soon as she followed Elion into a gate, she was mesmerised by the nice and luxurious buildings but her joy was cut short because of the name she saw on one of the buildings which stunned her and she kept wiping her eyes as though she wasn¡¯t seeing clearly. ¡°El- El- Elion Copper¡¯s residence.?¡± ¡°Do you have a problem with it?¡± Asked Elion. ¡°Am I going to be working for him?¡± E asked with tears running down her cheeks. Elion was stunned after seeing how serious she was. ¡°I don¡¯t get it. Are they tears of joy or..¡± Henry chipped in but was interrupted by Elion. ¡°Is it not obvious? She¡¯s happy because she will throw herself at the great Elion Copper¡­ E knelt in front of Elion and pleaded out sincerely. ¡°Please I know you don¡¯t love me but please if you want a divorce, I will happily ept¡­¡± ¡°You have just stepped foot on Elion Copper¡¯s Residence and you are already nning to divorce me. What will happen when you start working or throw yourself on him?¡± ¡°Please don¡¯t misunderstand me.¡± Cried E and almost whispering as if she was scared of being heard, she bent towards Elion and exined. ¡°See, Elion Copper is a very bad man. He is so heartless, arrogant, a womaniser and a pervert please I can¡¯t work here. Please, I¡¯m begging you. This is not the right ce for me to work. Elion Copper is an international Flirt.¡± Elion and Henry were shocked to the core I Better Marry A Baboon Than Elion Copper ¡°I¡¯m very serious. I¡¯m even surprised that you two aren¡¯t aware of all these. There are rumours that he sleeps with everything that bends down to urinate. I know exactly what I¡¯m talking about. Elion Copper is not someone any serious person will want to get close to.¡± Said E with a serious tone and Elion observed her for some time before addressing her. ¡°It seems you know a lot about Elion Copper.¡± Said Elion with a very cold voice which frightened E to the point that fear gripped her but she suddenly became shaky and knelt in front of her husband and begged like a child. ¡°See, I know what I¡¯m talking about. He is very hot tempered, arrogant, overbearing, heartless, and he is a chronic womaniser. I¡¯m really shocked to know that you people don¡¯t know who Elion Copper is. And there are rumours that he is equally very grumpy.¡± She continued to exin without noticing the change in the atmosphere. Henry, who has been standing as though he is standing on hot nails, broke out in cold sweat while Elion Copper became very angry. After suppressing his anger, he asked calmly but mockingly. ¡°Is he one of the men you have been messing around with?¡± If everyone in this world suddenly disappears and the only one left is Elion Copper and myself, I will rather entangle myself with a monkey, guerri, baboon or chimpanzee¡­¡± ¡°What? ¡± Asked Henry in shock while sweating profusely but at the same time, he wasughing seriously. ¡°I¡¯m telling you.¡± Replied E innocently. ¡°You are in his vi and you still have the guts to gossip about him?¡± Asked Elion angrily. ¡°I am fighting for my future. I am not gossiping anybody.¡± Replied Pandora. Elion frowned and looked at Henry who immediately started wheeling his wheelchair out of Elion Copper¡¯s residence and E followed them like a chick running away from a hawk. ¡°And where do you think you are going?¡± Ask Elion. ¡°Going back with you¡­¡± E was still trying to exin when Elion¡¯s angry voice rang into her ear like a church bell. ¡°Why are you stupid and deaf at the same time? Haven¡¯t I told you that you will be living..¡± ¡°Please, I beg you in the name of God, I can¡¯t live here. Elion Copper is a pervert and a very bad person¡­¡± E tried to plead her case on her knees but what Elion said next stunned her. ¡°You are just a retired slut so stop condemning a man you are not even worthy to set foot in his residence. For your information, I already sold you to him and collected the money already and my brother and I are going abroad today all thanks to the money¡­¡± ¡°You did what?¡± Asked E in disbelief. ¡°How can you sell your own wife to that pervert that calls himself Elion Copper? Why are you the same as them? I thought you are different but you all are just the same. You are worse than them all and I hate you.¡± E continued to rant while Henry wheeled Elion¡¯s wheelchair out of the gate leaving E fixed on one position. Left alone, E squatted like an abandoned child and cried her lungs out. The butler walked to her and took her into the house and after showing her around, she took her to a corridor behind the mansion. ¡°E, this is where you will be sleeping so drop whatever you have there and get to work.¡± Said the butler without a smile. With a shaky voice, E tried to enquire. ¡°Ma¡¯am, are you saying I¡¯m going to be sleeping on the cold floor¡­¡± ¡°Master Elion doesn¡¯t want you to stain nor contaminate the interior of his mansion with that body of yours that has satisfied all the men in the city.¡± The butler responded arrogantly leaving E in surprise but she continued to enquire. ¡°Please ma¡¯am, who told him I¡­¡±This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. ¡°It is written on your forehead if you don¡¯t know. Anyone looking at you or who knows the type of creature you got married to will know that you have a lot of skeletons in your cupboard. No pretty girl like you with an innocent past will marry the creature you got married to.¡± Exined The Butler as though she was lecturing a child. ¡°But ma¡¯am, that¡¯s not¡­¡± ¡°Shut up and get to work. Master Elion doesn¡¯t tolerate any form ofziness.¡± As soon as The Butler was done talking, The Butler walked away leaving E crying and cursing the day she was born. After dropping the shopping bag which contained her only gown, she went to meet The Butler who immediately assigned her on what to do. E took her time dry cleaning the floor after which she went to the kitchen to keep it clean. When she was done, she went back to the corridor where she will be sleeping andid down to rest. ¡­ Elion Copper was busy on theptop in front of him when Henry walked in to report something to him. ¡°Master Elion, I just spoke with The Butler and she said E is presently sleeping.¡± Elion Copper looked at the time on his wrist watch and frowned. ¡°How can a normal human being be sleeping by this time of the day?¡± Asked Elion Copper. ¡°Master Elion, I didn¡¯t¡­¡± Henry was still trying to exin when Elion interrupted him. ¡°Cancel the meeting this afternoon. I¡¯m heading home to teach thatzy pig a lesson myself.¡± Said Elion Copper without a smile which scared the living light out of Henry. He took his phone and while making some calls, he followed his boss out of the office and into the elevator. As soon as they got to the parking lot, Elion didn¡¯t wait for Henry to open the door for him. He quickly opened the door and got into the car like someone on a deadly mission. Henry on his part got into the driver¡¯s seat without wasting time and sped up as soon as he got in. Immediately they got to the vi, Elion got out of the car and went straight to the corridor where E was resting. As soon as he got there, The Butler brought a bucket of ice water and poured it mercilessly on E. She got up as though she had her worst nightmare and as soon as she stood up and wiped her face, her eyes fell on The Butler and without noticing the presence of Elion Copper and his PA, she asked The Butler in tears. ¡°Ma¡¯am, with all due respect, what have I done again? I already¡­¡± Before she couldplete her statement, Elion Copper gave her a deadly p and she stumbled and tried to support herself when another p came again pushing her to fall mercilessly on the ground. After bncing herself on the ground, she looked up only to see Elion Copper looking down at her fiercely and she immediately stood up in shock while panicking at the same time as she greeted her boss. ¡°Young Master Williams, good afternoon sir.¡± Sold To Serve ¡°Do you think I bought you so you can sleep andzy around my vi?¡± Asked Elion Copper with a frown face. ¡°I¡¯m sorry young Master Elion. But sir, I alreadypleted the work that was assigned to me.¡± With a little pathetic voice, E responded with her two palms on her swollen chicks and her eyes fixed on the grown. ¡°Really?¡± Asked Henry in shocked with eyes fixed on The Butler. ¡°It took her 7 hours to clean the interiorpletely.¡± Responded The Butler leaving everyone in disbelief except E. ¡°Since you are so good at what you do, you will not just be a cleaner here at home but in mypany as well.¡± Elion Copper instructed, leaving everyone stunned. ¡°Young Master Elion, you mean¡­¡± E was about to ask when Henry interrupted her. ¡°You will have to wake up early everyday so you can finish your work at home and be at thepany before 7:00 AM so you can keep the ce clean before 9:00 AM.¡± Henry gently exined. With her fingers, E counted from 12:00 midnight to 7:00 AM and tears ran down her cheeks as she tried to exin. ¡°Please sir, if I have to be at thepany before 7:00 AM, it means I will have to wake up every night by 10:30 PM¡­¡±Original from N?velDrama.Org. ¡°I bought you from your despicable husband so you can work for me and you are going to do exactly as I say. It seems the only thing you can do withoutining is prostitution.¡± Exined Elion Copper in a very domineering manner. After listening to his exnations, E fell on her knees again while subbing as though she had been deeply hurt. That evening, she couldn¡¯t sleep. She kept turning on the cold floor while crying non-stop and before she could realise it, it was 10:30 PM. She reluctantly dragged herself into the vi. She gathered all she needed for the cleaning and started cleaning. When she was done, the only room left was the masters bedroom and after wandering in front for over 30 minutes, she finally decided to muster some courage and knock. She knocked severally but there was no response, she checked her wrist watch and it was almost 6:00 AM. Just when she lifted her hand to knock again, the door suddenly opened from the inside and she lost bnce and fell directly towards Elion Copper and he immediately shifted to the left leaving E to fall to the ground like a log of wood. Ignoring the poordy going through severe pains, Elion¡¯s words came like a dagger piercing deep into her soul. ¡°Your husband told me you are a harlot and seduces anything you see in trousers, you better watch your steps and stop throwing yourself at me. If not, I will kill you with my bare hands.¡± E struggled and stood up before she apologised. ¡°I¡¯m sorry young Master Elion. Please sir, I wasn¡¯ting here for any other thing. I have cleaned the entire vi and the only ce left is the masters bedroom and that¡¯s why I am here sir.¡± ¡°Couldn¡¯t you wait till I go to work first? Are you so determined to seduce me?¡± Asked Elion coldly. ¡°Young Master Elion, if I wait a little longer, I won¡¯t be able to be in thepany before 7:00 AM¡­¡± ¡°Get lost.¡± Interrupted Elion and shut the door at E. E waited for a long time and as soon as Elion stepped out in his elegant ck suit, she hurried in and started cleaning. By the time she was done, it was almost 6:00 AM. She quickly showered and left at a very high speed. By the time she arrived at thepany, it was alreadyte. Ignoring all the eyes staring at her as though she was a funny creature, she quickly ran towards the receptionist and after introducing herself, she was given a badge which contained her name and the position she upied. She went up to the President¡¯s office only to meet Elion looking very angry. She looked at Henry as though she needed a confirmation and after receiving none, she quietly went straight to cleaning but just before she started, Elion Copper suddenly turned towards her and vomited all his resentment on her. ¡°Who gave you the permission to batch into my office?¡± Asked Elion Copper angrily. ¡°Young Master Elion, The Secretary asked me to keep the office clean as soon as possible because you have an important guest.¡± Exined E. ¡°Didn¡¯t I warn you yesterday not toete?¡± Elion Copper asked while looking directly at her. ¡°Master Elion, I really did not waste time. As soon as I was done from the house, I left immediately.¡± E exined looking so exhausted. ¡°From the house to thispany is just a 13 minutes drive so¡­¡± Elion was still talking when E interrupted him. ¡°Master Elion, I¡¯m sincerely sorry foringte, the truth is I had no transport fare so I had to trek to thepany. I will never bete.¡± Said E while looking at the floor as though it had wronged her. E quickly dry cleaned the office and with Elion¡¯s eye fixed on her, she was very ufortable but did all she could to avoid any eye contact with him. While she was still cleaning, an elegant youngdy bounced into Elion¡¯s office without knocking and as soon as she walked in, her eyes fell on E and she couldn¡¯t hide her dislike towards her. ¡°Isn¡¯t this the prostitute who got married to that baboon?¡± Asked Liza while walking towards Elion with so much confidence. E, who was busy cleaning, suddenly stopped when she heard the question. With a painful smile, she stood up straight and corrected Liza directly leaving everyone stunned. ¡°With all due respect, my name is E. I am not a prostitute and my husband isn¡¯t a baboon either. You might trust me to think I won¡¯t fight back if you address me or my husband as such but to be frank with you, I don¡¯t trust myself especially if you call my husband a baboon.¡± Liza, His Childhood Sweetheart ¡°Trying to impress me?¡± Asked Elion Copper as he looked at E mockingly but she ignored him and continued with what she was doing. This made Elion a little amazed but he pretended as though he wasn¡¯t. Liza who was watching the two of them became very irritated and before everyone¡¯s eyes, she walked to E andnded two ps on her right cheek leaving everyone stunned. E was shocked to the core but didn¡¯t say anything. Henry unconsciously ran to E to find out if she was okay. ¡°E, are you okay?¡± Asked Henry with so much concern. ¡°Why don¡¯t you book a hotel room for the two of you rather than romancing her in front of me.¡± Said Elion Copper mockingly. ¡°Master Elion, sheined of a migraine headache this morning reason why I¡­¡± Henry tried exining but was interrupted by Elion Copper . ¡°Slut, you are really smarter than I thought. You have already seduced my PA to the extent that you are already running to him to fake a headache? How smart.¡± Elion said mockingly.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. ¡°Young Master Elion, I didn¡¯t¡­¡± E tried exining but was interrupted by Henry. ¡°Master Elion, I overheard herining to one of the chefs at home so¡­¡± Henry, who knew his exnation was perfect, was shocked to be interrupted by his boss arrogantly. ¡°Are you already in love with her? You just overheard her talking to someone and you haven¡¯t forgotten about it? It¡¯s not even up to 24 hours and you two are already showcasing your love everywhere which means in the next few days, weeks or years, you will have kids flying everywhere.¡± ¡°God forbid.¡± Responded E. ¡°Is this what this is all about? No one is talking about this slut insulting and threatening me just now. Elion, didn¡¯t you hear her insult me?¡± ¡°Miss, you can¡¯t call me a slut.¡± Warned E ¡°Says who? What right do you think you have to warn my guest? Are you stupid or so foolish that you don¡¯t even know you amount to nothing?¡± Replied Elion Copper . ¡°Elion, I¡¯m not just a guest? I¡¯m your childhood friend and have always stayed by your side.¡± Liza hurriedly chipped in with a very seductive voice. ¡°ve, kneel down and raise your hands up.¡± Elion instructed angrily. ¡°But Young Master Elion, she insulted me, she called me a prostitute, a slut and my husband a baboon¡­¡± E tried exining but was ignored tantly by Elion. ¡°I won¡¯t repeat myself again.¡± Said Elion while looking at her with his domineering eyes. In tears, E knelt down and tears ran uncontrobly down her cheeks. In less than no time, Henry looked at his wristwatch and told his boss that it was time for the next meeting. The three of them left, leaving E in the office still kneeling. E didn¡¯t realise how much time had passed and she was very tired and dizzy. Just then, she started grumbling to herself without realising that Elion Copper, Liza and Henry had walked into the office. ¡°Wicked man, heartless man, always very grumpy and arrogant, stubborn brat, spoiled brat. Master Elion, you are very stupid and weak. Even my husband that you mocked everyday for being a cripple and disfigured is not weak at all. You that is very able have let yourself be controlled by a woman. Stupid fool. You are a fool that is stupidly foolish. I¡¯m the innocent one yet I have been kneeling for more than five hours. That husband barber that you call your childhood friend called somebody¡¯s husband a baboon and you said nothing and you are rather punishing me. Since I came to your house yesterday till now, I haven¡¯t eaten anything. The only thing I¡¯ve been eating in abundance are ps. And people will think that you have sense when it¡¯s only your appearance that makes you look like you have sense. Handsome idiot, handsome fool, stupid man. If they leave the two of us in the same ce, I will beat the hell out of you and when I¡¯m done, I will lock the door and swallow the key so you rod inside the house. Foolish fool. Henry, who was glued to the same spot as he listened to the insults, was trying all he could to suppress hisughter. In order not tough, he walked towards E who was kneeling with her back against the door and hit the back of her head with the folder in his right hand causing E to lose guard due to shock and fear as she knew she had been caught red-handed. As soon as she turned, she saw just Henry and she immediately started begging him. ¡°Sir Henry, please don¡¯t tell Master Elion that I was¡­¡± ¡°Calling him a handsome man? You are really so cheap.¡± Replied Elion Copper while walking elegantly towards E. ¡°Master Elion, please I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯m really sorry sir. I will never insult you again. Please forgive me. It¡¯s all my fault Master Elion please I¡¯m sorry.¡± E kept begging for mercy but waspletely ignored by Elion who walked back to the door followed by Henry. Just when Henry was about to close the door, Elion¡¯s words left E shocked to the core. ¡°Take this night to reflect on the gravity of what you have done.¡± Elion said and walked away without giving E any chance to exin herself or beg for mercy. ¡°That serves you right. You are absolutely nothing and still have the guts to tempt those you can¡¯t afford to hurt. Who do you think you are to insult Elion? He has done a great job by leaving you to spend your night in this wholepany all alone but I¡¯m still not satisfied.¡± Liza looked at Henry and signalled him with her head to leave. When Henry left, Liza smiled, looked at the AC and walked towards the table. She picked up the remote control and increased the speed to the highest level leaving E exposed to unbearable cold throughout the whole night. When she was done, she carefully wiped the remote control and used a tissue to take it to E and forced her to hold it with her bare hands. When she confirmed that she had cleared all the evidence, she left very happy with her head high up. The Agony Of Ella Throughout the whole night, E almost froze to death. She tried hiding in all corners in the office but couldn¡¯t resist the cold. She tried unlocking the door severally but didn¡¯t seed as the door was well secured. When she couldn¡¯t resist any longer, she went unconscious. The next morning, as soon as Henry opened the door, he was greeted by the lifeless body of E. He turned to his boss and called his attention. ¡°Master Elion, E is¡­¡± Before he could finish his sentence, Elion saw E¡¯s lifeless body and hurried towards it. Henry carried her and rushed to the emergency room and the doctor immediately attended to her. After checking for a pulse and her heartbeat, the doctor sighed in relief before exining the situation to Henry to inform his boss. ¡°She¡¯s responsive.¡± ¡°Better.¡± Replied Henry as he walked back to the president¡¯s office in satisfaction. As soon as he entered, his eyes fell on his boss and Liza sitting in an ambiguous position. He gently cleared his throat before passing the message he brought. ¡°Boss, she¡¯s responsive.¡± Said Henry with so much satisfaction but his boss¡¯ answer left him confused. ¡°Who cares?¡± Spat Elion while sipping some red wine. Liza stood up and with her two hands folded across her chest, she warned Henry as though he was a kid. ¡°Henry, your boss isn¡¯t interested in that cleaner so please stop trying to force her down his throat. Whether she¡¯s alive or not, who cares? Even if she dies, who wille looking for her corpse or who killed her?¡± After waiting for his boss to rebuke Liza, his boss didn¡¯t say anything which left Henry very disappointed. Without a word, he walked to the table, picked up some files and stormed out of the office. Three hourster, while in the general meeting, Liza whispered into Elion¡¯s ears and Elion responded with a node. Anytime she was around Elion, she was very flirtatious as if she was trying to warn otherdies to stay off her man and since Elion will neverin, everyone thought the rumours that they were engaged were true and so, everyone in town respected her. Liza bounced out in admiration. She went to the emergency room and without a word, she dragged E from the bed whilemanding E to follow her. ¡°You better hurry because my fiance won¡¯t spare you if you keep him waiting.¡± Like an obedient dog, E followed Liza with her left hand lifting the drip on her left arm so as to stop blood leakage. As soon as they walked into the room, all eyes fell on E who was very pale and still shivering. Seeing her pathetic state, Henry looked at Liza and frowned lightly but avoided being caught. ¡°You are worse than a viger E. Don¡¯t you know how to switch off and AC? Why did you turn it on in the first ce¡­?¡± Elion questioned her non-stop and she tried her best to exin herself. ¡°Greetings Master Elion, I¡¯m sorry for the inconveniences I¡¯ve caused. To be sincere sir, I wasn¡¯t the one that switched on the AC¡­¡± ¡°Then who did?¡± Interrupted Liza as if she was trying to stop her from talking. ¡°Miss Liza, you did it.¡± E said angrily but her words were sealed by a hard p from Liza. ¡°How dare you lie against me? What will you gain from tarnishing my image?¡± Liza asked angrily. She became very angry causing Elion to frown lightly. ¡°E, how dare you lie right in front of me?¡± Elion asked as he stood and walked up to E closing the gap between them which made the shivering E to take a few steps backward. ¡°If you take a step again I will kill you.¡± Elion warned seriously. ¡°Master Elion, I¡¯m not lying. She wasn¡¯t satisfied with you punishing me to stay in the office the whole night¡­¡± E tried exining but Henry stopped her. ¡°E, are you trying to get back at Liza?¡± Asked Henry. ¡°Not at all sir. I am saying¡­¡± Before she could finish her words, Elion gave her a very hard p causing her to fall on her swollen knees. Like a child, E cried out aloud leaving many people feeling very sorry for her. To worsen her situation, Maya who had been looking for such an opportunity, stood up and questioned E without any pithy, causing Henry to be very suspicious. ¡°E, will you ever change? Must you always try to implicate people just so you look righteous and any other person demonic? Don¡¯t tell me you have an eye for Master Elion? For crying out loud, you are already married E, so you shouldn¡¯t spoil the rtionship between Miss Liza and Master Elion. I met your husband yesterday and he told me you haven¡¯t been sleeping at home, and even when you try toe back home, you return with a man. Why are¡­?¡± ¡°Enough!¡± Shouted Elion who was already burning in anger. Henry was stunned after listening to Liza and Elion, who hadn¡¯t noticed anything wrong in what Maya just said, was fuming in anger. ¡°Miss Madison, where did you meet her husband because I want to meet him too.¡±This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. Trying to cook up a story, she smiled sheepishly before changing the topic. ¡°Sir Henry, they are really not important. Her husband isn¡¯t someone you will want to set your eyes on because you will definitely lose your appetite. We should be more concerned about how E got a job as a cleaner in thispany. She might have offered her body to one of the HODs here to secure the job.¡± E, who was already used to such usations, didn¡¯t respond. While Liza was very satisfied with Maya and couldn¡¯t help but smile back at her and gave her a thumbs up. E struggled and stood on her feet and was about walking out when Elion¡¯s voice brought her to a halt. ¡°Get me a cup of coffee.¡± E waited for about thirty seconds and without a word from Elion, she turned to face him only to meet his cold eyes staring deeply into her. She turned and looked at Henry who gave her the order again. ¡°E, you have just two minutes to bring the coffee.¡± Henry said coldly. Everyone in the conference room was shocked to hear Elion demanding a cup of coffee and started whispering among themselves. ¡°You now drink coffee? Howe I¡¯m not aware?¡± Asked Liza like a spoiled brat but Elion ignored her. Few minutester, E returned with the coffee and handed it to Elion. As soon as he took the cup of coffee, he brought it directly to his mouth to take a sip but as soon as he tasted the coffee, he frowned and poured the hot coffee on E¡¯s left hand causing it to burn instantly to the satisfaction of Liza and Maya while others looked at E with empathy except for Elion. ¡°Is this the coffee you used to make for your husband?¡± Elion asked, leaving everyone stunned including the tearing E who recalled the day she first served her husband coffee and had to be a side stool for her husband till he emptied his cup. Ella Exchanged For Liza鈥檚 Life E apologised in tears and went looking for a rag. Upon arrival, she quietly wiped the water on the floor and left. Sheter came back and just when everyone thought she was bringing coffee, she entered without any coffee gently holding her burnt hand with the other hand. When she entered the office, she took a few steps towards Elion before exining with a pained voice. ¡°Young Master Elion, I only used what was avable here. The ingredients I used to make coffee for my husband are very different from the ingredients avable here.¡± ¡°Then get them ready.¡± Replied Williams. As if she was Whispering. ¡°I don¡¯t have money sir.¡±This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. ¡°Discuss that with The Butler when you get back home.¡± Said Elion while waving his hand for her to leave. ¡°Elion, what do you mean by when she gets back home, she should discuss it with The Butler? Does she leave with you now?¡± Asked Liza like a spoiled child and E who was already by the door suddenly stopped and turned to face Liza. ¡°Liza, should I take permission from you before employing my domestic staff?¡± Asked Elion in a calm but angry tone and E quietly left the meeting room. When she was done with thepany, she left and was hurrying back home on foot. When she arrived at The Amen Estate, there was a heavy raining and since there was no ce she could hide from the rain, she started running very fast so as to avoid the rain. Just then, a ck Rolls Royce sped past and the people inside didn¡¯t stop to help her. Elion Copper looked at thedy running at the highest speed through the window and didn¡¯t help her. When they arrived at the vi, he changed his clothes and stood in the corridor outside sipping his wine. It was then that E could be seen shivering in with her hands crossed over her chest and clinging onto her neck. Looking at the drencheddy, Elion felt a mild pain in his heart but waved it away when he suddenly told himself that she deserves it. That evening in a restaurant, Liza and Maya were busy plotting how to end E¡¯s life gradually. ¡°I have a very good idea.¡± Said Maya wickedly. ¡°And what¡¯s that?¡± Liza asked in full anticipation. ¡°Since Master Elion will do just anything to please you, let¡¯s use that weakness of his to make E hate him so that there will be a solid wall between them and with that, they will never fall for each other.¡± Maya exined elegantly. ¡°How do we achieve that?¡± Asked Liza. ¡°It¡¯s very simple, we can convince his family doctor and you will fake to be sick and you can even copse and when they get you to the hospital, the doctor should tell him you need an urgent kidney transnt and since I will be there, I will quickly suggest E as the donor and when you be conscious, you will stand on my words as well.¡± ¡°That sounds great but what will we do with the kidney?¡± Liza asked ¡°Sell it of course. We will sell it.¡± Said Maya evilly. Liza smiled in satisfaction and lifted his wine ss as the two of them exchanged a toast. Elion was busy in his study when Liza knocked and entered. ¡°What are you still doing here? It¡¯ste already.¡± Elion asked with eyes fixed on the document in front of him. ¡°Why has it suddenly be a problem for me to visit you? Is it because of that cleaner?¡± Liza asked as she approached him. ¡°Liza, there¡¯s nothing between me and the cleaner just as there¡¯s nothing between us. You have made everyone believe we are engaged.¡± Elion exined with a frown. With so much disappointment, Liza responded calmly. ¡°But we can clear the rumours at any time you want. It¡¯s not that difficult. By the way, I haven¡¯t given anyone that impression. We grew up together Elion, so it¡¯s normal for people to think that we are childhood sweethearts.¡± Liza said, emphasising the words childhood sweethearts. While she was still talking, she suddenly shouted and copsed. Elion ran to her and picked her up like a child and hurried downstairs as he called The Butler to give Henry and the family doctor a call. He carefullyid her on the backseat in his Rolls Royce and took the driver¡¯s seat. He was at a very high speed and those he by passed on his way thought it should be someone that wants tomit suicide or someone that has stolen something and is running away from the police. In less than no time, he arrived at the hospital and Henry and the doctor were already waiting for them. The nurses quickly took her from the car andid her on the stretcher and took her into the emergency unit followed by the doctor. After 20 minutes, the door suddenly opened and Elion and Henry looked at the door with a lot of expectations and the doctor exined professionally. ¡°She is conscious now but you need to keep an eye on her all the time. You know she has been battling with kidney failure yet you didn¡¯t¡­¡± ¡°Kidney failure?¡± Elion and Henry asked at the same time looking at each other in confusion. ¡°Yes. Were you not aware?¡± The doctor asked, pretending to be surprised. ¡°I have never known anything like that. I knew she was one hundred percent healthy.¡± Elion exined still shocked. ¡°You can go in now. She¡¯s stable for now although we need an urgent kidney transnt.¡± The doctor said, causing Elion and Henry to suddenlye to a halt and look at him. ¡°We can¡¯t just depend on dialysis Master Elion. To ensure that she¡¯spletely out of danger, we need to do a kidney transnt as soon as possible.¡± The doctor continued with his exnations. After carefully listening to the doctor, he went into the ward followed by Henry. As soon as Liza saw him, she brought forth her acting skills. She was wailing and crying non-stop. ¡°Elion, I don¡¯t want to die, please help me. Please Elion, I don¡¯t want to die.¡± ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me when it was diagnosed?¡± Elion asked with so much concern. ¡°I didn¡¯t want to bother you and I thought it would get better.¡± Liza exined in tears. ¡°Doctor, is there any donor you know of?¡± Elion asked. ¡°We just have to make findings.¡± The doctor assured. ¡°Elion, I confided in a friend and showed her my results and she told me that her sister could be a donor.¡± Liza exined. ¡°Then that will be good. If they need money, we can give them the money. Can you call your friend toe over with her sister?¡± Elion asked without any hesitation. ¡°Elion, her sister is someone you know.¡± Liza responded. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter, all we need now is for you to stay alive and in good health.¡± Elion assured her ¡°Who is she, Miss Liza?¡± Henry asked. ¡°It¡¯s, actually she is¡­¡± ¡°Liza it¡¯s your life we are talking about so speak up.¡± The doctor warned. ¡°Actually, thedy in question is El, El, E.¡± ¡°What?¡± Elion and Henry asked at once looking at each other in disbelief. Ella, A Spare Body Parts For Liza Without a word, Elion walked out of the ward followed by Henry. Seeing that he was going towards the car, he hurried and opened the car door and he got in. After closing the door, he sat on the driver¡¯s seat and sped up. In less than no time, they arrived at the vi and Elion sat on one of the sofas in the living room in a state of frustration. After sitting without a word for a long time, he finally made up his mind and asked Henry to call for E. In hesitation, Henry went to the back corridor and met E who was fast asleep in aplete state of loneliness and abandonment. After waking her up, she quietly followed Henry to the Living room. As they got in, Elion didn¡¯t look at her direction but ordered indifferently as he bypassed her and walked outside. ¡°Follow me.¡± Without a word and like an obedient dog, she followed them to the car that was parked just by the door. Everyone got into the car and she remained standing because she didn¡¯t know whether she was supposed to be in the car with them or not and if yes, she didn¡¯t know whether she was supposed to sit on the seat next to the driver¡¯s seat or on the passenger seat beside Elion. Looking at the girl rooted on one spot, Elion became very impatient and furious. With a tone he has never used in front of E, he yelled at her with so much anger. ¡°Are you mad? Who do you think you are to keep me waiting? If anything happens to Liza, I will use you to make tomato paste. Get into the car you fool.¡± E was shocked to the core to be scolded like a child over what she knew nothing about. When she was about opening the front door, Elion shouted again. ¡°Who do you think you are to sit in the front seat?¡± Hearing this, E quickly shut the door and opened the car door behind and was almost stepping in when she was greeted with another warning again. ¡°Who do you think you are to share a seat with me? Get to the boot.¡± Henry was stunned after hearing the instruction but knowing his boss wasn¡¯t in a good mood, he quietly pressed a button and the boot opened. E went to the boot and got into it and Henry closed it again. She didn¡¯t realise how long they had gone when the car suddenly came to a stop and the boot opened. She came down from the boot and watched the boot closed again. Elion bypassed her and she hurried behind him Like a sheep being dragged to be ughtered. As soon as they went into Liza¡¯s ward, Liza and Maya were stunned to see Elioning in with E followed by Henry. ¡°Elion, I thought you abandoned me to die. Thank you for saving my life. In my whole life and even in my next life, I will serve and obey you¡±. Liza thanked him with tears in her eyes and E, who wasn¡¯t aware of what was happening, looked at the pale Liza and couldn¡¯t help but have sympathy for her. ¡°Miss Liza, I pray you recover soon.¡± Lizapletely ignored her while Maya ran out for the doctor and in less than two minutes, she returned with the doctor. The doctor took E by hand to run a series of tests on her. When he was done, he returned with E to Liza¡¯s ward and met with worried faces. He smiled and spoke in assurance. ¡°She¡¯s a good march for Liza so she¡¯s going to be the donor.¡± E was stunned when she heard the word donor and couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°Doctor, what do you mean by donor? What am I donating to Liza?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you just wish Liza a quick recovery just now? So in order to make that happen, you will be donating one of your kidneys to Li¡­¡± Maya said sarcastically. Turning to Elion, E knelt down and started begging for mercy. ¡°Young Master Elion, please have mercy on me. I don¡¯t want to die please. Please don¡¯t remove my kidney.¡± ¡°So Liza should die just because you don¡¯t want your kidney to be removed? I bought you E with money and will use you anyhow I want.¡± Elion told her in a serious tone. ¡°Sir Henry, please beg Master Elion to have mercy on me, please sir.¡± E pleaded crying out loud like a child but Elion ignored her and the doctor and Henry dragged her into the theatre. They forcefully carried her and ced her on the operating table and tied her hands and legs before they injected her with anaesthesia. After about 2 hours, the right kidney was sessfully removed and E was taken to Liza¡¯s ward andid on the other bed. Liza was then taken to the theatre while E was still unconscious. Around 7:00 AM the next morning, Elion came in followed by Henry and The Butler holding a food sk. They looked at Maya gently feeding Liza with a well nourished soup and looked at E who was lying on the bed with a pale face and cracked lips butpletely ignored her as though she didn¡¯t exist and all his attention was tilted towards Liza. ¡°How are you feeling now Liza? I am happy to see you eating already.¡± Elion asked with so much concern and didn¡¯t even turn to look at E. ¡°Thank you Elion. It¡¯s all thanks to you. If you didn¡¯t donate your cleaner¡¯s kidney to me, I might be dead by now or I might just be a day closer to my grave¡±. Liza said with so much affection. ¡°Miss Liza, since you are eating already, I will preserve this food for you to eatter.¡± The Butler told her with so much care and attention and E who was being ignored by everyone couldn¡¯t help but shade tears. She couldn¡¯t resist her hunger anymore so she mustered courage to ask for food.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. ¡°Ma¡¯am, please I¡¯m very hungry. Can you please give me some food to eat?¡± ¡°E, why are you trying to kill my appetite? Can¡¯t you just wait first for me to finish eating and if there¡¯s still some food left, you will have it but for now, please stay quiet. The food is not running.¡± ¡°Liza said with so much irritation. Miss Liza is right E. The food isn¡¯t running so be calm.¡± The Butler spoke out angrily. ¡°Does anyone here look like your chef?¡± Elion asked angrily leaving E stunned by his level of heartlessness and she couldn¡¯t help but ask in tears. ¡°Master Elion, I have donated my precious kidney to your fiance yet, a te of food is too much for me to ask?¡± Elion didn¡¯t understand the feeling he had towards E. He didn¡¯t know if it was hatred, resentment or empathy but he suppressed the feeling and took a few steps towards E¡¯s bed and gave her a hard p leaving everyone stunned. E cried out loud and cursed him with everything in her. ¡°I hate you Master Elion. I hate everything about you. You are nice to everyone except me. What did I ever do wrong to you? You hate me just because of things my husband told you which are not true. You have made me a ve in your house and in yourpany and now, you are using some parts of my body as spare parts for your lover and you are still beating me over it. Why don¡¯t you just kill me instead. Why does everyone hate me so much? What did I ever do wrong to the universe? Even if it¡¯s because I was a prostitute, am I the only prostitute in the world?¡± Lizapletely forgot that she was under pretence and jumped down from the bed and ran towards E hitting her on her stomach but thank God that E was alert and had covered her stomach on time. ¡°Liza, aren¡¯t you hurting yourself?¡± Asked Elion in shock to have witnessed the way Liza ran to E as though she felt no pain from the surgery. With the question, all eyes were on Liza and Henry became more suspicious and looked at Liza meaningfully before shifting his eyes to E who was in great pain. He took out his phone and sent a message to a strange number on whatsapp and after confirming that the message had been delivered, he deleted the message and looked at E again with a lot of empathy. The Jealous Secret Husband Liza pretentiously ced her hand on her abdomen and pretended to be in great pain. ¡°Elion, you just saved my life and I can¡¯t watch anyone talk down on you even if it means I should trade my life for you.¡± Liza exined with so much affection in her voice. Maya immediately ran to her, and pretended to be supporting her and took her to her bed and helped her to lie down before chipping in an advice. ¡°Miss Liza, you shouldn¡¯t risk your life because of that slut. She¡¯s not worth your life.¡± ¡°Liza, you should take care of yourself because if anything happens to your kidney, we might not easily get a donor and we won¡¯t have to kill E just to donate herst kidney to you.¡± Henry said, pretending to show Liza a lot of concern. ¡°Henry, call for the doctor to check on Liza to be sure she hasn¡¯t endangered herself just now.¡± Elion ordered with a frown and Henry left immediately and returned with the Doctor. While they were still talking, a delivery person knocked on the door and entered with a food sk. He greeted Master Elion by bowing her head and turned towards E who is still going through so much pain and addressed her with a lot of pity. ¡°Miss, I was asked to bring this food to you.¡± ¡°Who sent the food?¡± Elion asked angrily. ¡°Master Elion, I didn¡¯t ask his name.¡± Replied the delivery person. ¡°How dare you collect food from another man to give to someone¡¯s wife?¡± Elion asked with so much jealousy in his voice. ¡°Master Elion, you don¡¯t have to bother about this slut, she must have contacted one of her boyfriends to¡­¡± Maya tried exining but was interrupted by E who was sweating profusely due to the pain she was going through. ¡°Maya, so how exactly did I contact my boyfriend?¡± ¡°So you are admitting you have a boyfriend?¡± Asked Elion which made E very angry. ¡°Master Elion, if I had a boyfriend, do you think I wouldn¡¯t have ran away?¡± She looked at Maya with so much disgust before talking. ¡°And Maya, you haven¡¯t answered my question, how exactly did I contact the boyfriend you just mentioned? I¡¯ve never had a phone and I left the house yesterday without knowing I was going to donate my kidney to the soon to be Mrs. Elion. When I got here, after confirming that my kidney was healthy, I was dragged to the theatre like a sacrificialmb. And since the surgery, I¡¯ve been lying on this bed. So, I think you should find out from Mrs. Elion or Mr. Elion and Henry who stayed by her throughout the night to ensure not even a flynds on her. Ask them if I had a chance to borrow a phone from the hospital or any of the staff. So how exactly did I contact my boyfriend? Maya, it¡¯s all because of you and your lies that my husband hated me to the point that he sold me off.¡± ¡°Can you shut up? Where is the lie? Even if she lied, where is this fooding from? Isn¡¯t iting from one of your boyfriends?¡± Elion interrogated angrily and E was deeply hurt but chose to ignore all the hurtful words. She turned to the delivery person and pleaded with him to help her to eat since she couldn¡¯t sit up straight to eat and this made Elion very furious. Instead of leaving, he sat down quietly and Henry stepped forward to inform him about the meeting in the office. ¡°Master Elion, we should be on our way now because the board meeting is in 25 minutes¡­ Cancel the meeting.¡± Elion said with eyes fixed on the floor but technically, he was staring at the delivery person with the corner of his left eye. Henry was surprised as to why he had decided to stay in the hospital but had no choice but to make a call to cancel the meeting. The delivery boy dished out enough nutritious soup and sat next to E on the bed. He took the first spoon and was about to feed E when Elion suddenly burst out in anger leaving everyone stunned. ¡°Are you mad to think you can feed her in front of me?¡± ¡°Elion, she is already used to being fed by other men and by the way, why should you be worried because she¡¯s being fed by another man¡­¡± Liza was still acting like ady her husband had cheated on when Elion suddenly raised his voice at her , something he had never done before. ¡°Liza, her husband, left her under my care.¡± ¡°Oh I see, that¡¯s right. It¡¯s good you keep your eyes on her for the sake of her husband. But Elion you told me her husband sold her to you so you don¡¯t need to bother about what she does.¡± Liza was still defending herself when Elion interrupted her angrily. ¡°Liza, if you are fine then you should go home.¡± The delivery boy didn¡¯t know what to do because he didn¡¯t want to be on Elion¡¯s bad side. He quietly ced the te of soup on top of the food sk and left in a hurry. E struggled to stand to no avail and The Butler did nothing to help her. Henry really wanted to help her but was scared of his boss. E looked at everyone with tears flowing uncontrobly from her eyes and shifted her gaze back to the te of soup. Elion really wanted to feed her but couldn¡¯t due to the atmosphere and just when E thought all hope was gone, a nurse entered and went straight to her bed. ¡°Miss, The delivery person that just brought some food for you has asked me toe help you to eat since you are not yet strong enough.¡±This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. ¡°She¡¯s just a nobody so you can¡¯t address her with so much respect, and why is she pretending not to be strong? Liza was equally operated for the same purpose but she¡¯s already walking up and down¡­.¡± Maya tried talking down on E but was brutally interrupted by the nurse. ¡°With all due respect Miss Madison, we respect all our patients here and secondly, someone that went through a kidney transnt justst night, can¡¯t be walking up and down like you im. Again, E¡¯s case is more critical because she just lost a kidney and it will take a long time for her body to adapt to the new development. Please Miss Madison, do not use ill words on patients because it might affect their mental health.¡± After lecturing Maya, she sat down on E¡¯s bed and looking at the exposed soup, she picked it up and was going to throw it when E called out. ¡°Ma¡¯am, where are you going with it?¡± ¡°The food has been exposed for a long time, E, so she needs to throw it away. You are really horrible.¡± Maya said mockingly. ¡°Is that so? Between the food you and your family used to give me to eat and this one, which can be considered as more exposed? Didn¡¯t you people know that a human is not supposed to eat exposed food when you were busy leaving food for two days exposed in the kitchen before you hand it to me to eat? Throughout my stay in your house since when I was a baby till I left months ago, is there any day you people ever gave me fresh food? I was the one doing the cooking but if there was no stale food in the house, your mother and you wouldn¡¯t give me food no matter how much there was fresh food in the house and now, all of a sudden, you are lecturing me on what and what not to eat?¡± ¡°Are you now talking back at me?¡± Asked Maya angrily. ¡°Maya, I used to be quiet before but after this surgeryst night and the way I¡¯ve been treated by everyone after the surgery, I¡¯vee to realise that I can die at any time but before that timees, I will fight for myself. I will fight till myst breath. By the way, since you want to teach me ethics, isn¡¯t it ethical for you to respect your elders? Maya you are just 19 years and I am 26 years old so you should respect me if not for anything, at least for my age. You like looking down on me because I have no one to defend me. If your parents had told me where my parents are, I wouldn¡¯t have gone through all that I¡¯ve gone through.¡± E¡¯s words shocked everyone including Elion who was hearing all these for the first time. Elion And Liza鈥檚 First Sex Experience The nurse sat quietly beside E and fed her with so much concern. And just when she was rounding up, E started throwing up. She handled her with so much care and concern which made Liza so angry and she took her phone and sent a message to the doctor and he came right away. ¡°Master Elion, Liza is surprisingly recovering very fast so I think they will be discharged this evening and I suggest Liza should stay at your vi for some months for proper care since her parents are out of the country.¡± The doctor exined calmly and Elion nodded in satisfaction. ¡°Doctor, what do you mean by Liza is recovering well so they will be discharged this evening? Liza is the one that is recovering well and not me. Doctor I¡¯m having a lot of pains in my abdomen and since this morning, this should be like the fifth time you areing here but you haven¡¯t checked up on me.¡± Eined with tears flowing down her cheeks. ¡°You are the only one that knows why you aren¡¯t recovering yet. Maybe karma is catching up with you.¡± Mayained victoriously but the doctorpletely ignored E and Elion said nothing about it.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. That evening, they were finally discharged and Elion supported Liza with so much care while E, who could barely walk, could only lean on the wall constantly for support. Henry followed Elion silently but kept turning and ncing at E who was really struggling to walk. When they got to the car, Henry opened the door and Elion helped Liza to get in while he closed the door and went round the car to enter through the other door. When he got in, Henry closed the door and went into the driver¡¯s seat and as soon as he sat down and closed the door, he pressed a button and the boot opened. E looked at Liza leaning towards Elion and the manner at which Elion held her as if he was scared that she could hurt her hair. Tears ran down her cheeks as she was struggling to get into the boot but didn¡¯t seed due to the pains on her abdomen. The nurse that had fed her in the morning saw her struggling to get into the boot and ran to help her. She carefully helped her into the boot and wiped E¡¯s tears before smiling back at her. She stood there and as soon as the boot closed, tears ran down her cheeks and she kept her eyes fixed on the car till it waspletely out of her view. When they got home, Maya and Mrs. Madison were already waiting for them in the living room. When the car alighted, everyone got out of the car and Henry forgot that E was still at the boot. She tried calling out but no one could hear her from outside. That night, Elion let Liza share his bed with him and as soon as Elion came to bed, Liza suddenly rolled towards him and forced herself into his arms. ¡°Why were you not sleeping? Are you in pain?¡± Asked Elion with so much concern. Like a child, Liza held Elion tight before responding to his questions. ¡°Elion, no matter how hard I try, I can¡¯t sleep without you beside me.¡± Hearing this, Elion frowned lightly before telling her to sleep. ¡°I¡¯m here now so you should sleep.¡± Liza was disappointed but tried to cover up her disappointment by trying to make Elion recall their childhood days. ¡°Elion, you remember the first day we slept on the same bed?¡± ¡°Liza, all that happened was because we were just being childish back then. We are all mature now and we shouldn¡¯t be thinking of what we did in our childhood days.¡± Elion said impatiently. ¡°But Elion, how can we just sweep the memories of us having sex under the carpet?¡± Asked Liza. ¡°Liza, I need to sleep now.¡± The next morning, they were on the dining table for breakfast and Henry could not help but assign one of the chefs to take breakfast to E. Looking at one of the female chefs, he said. ¡°Get some breakfast to thedy that sleeps in the corridor behind.¡± Liza frowned at the mention of E and tried stopping Henry but Elion ignored herpletely. ¡°Henry, are you in love with that cleaner? Can¡¯t you wait till we finish eating so we see what is left?¡± ¡°Miss Liza, she¡¯s not feeling fine just like you so at least for the meantime, be nice to her. After all, she¡¯s your saviour.¡± Henry responded mockingly. Just then, the chef returned with the breakfast. ¡°Sir Henry, she¡¯s not there. I¡¯ve tried looking for her around the vi but I haven¡¯t seen her and the security men at the gate haven¡¯t seen her leave.¡± Exined the chef. Elion felt a dagger stabbing through his heart and he felt a pain he had never felt before but he tried to hide it and asked calmly. ¡°What do you mean?¡± Asked Elion as he went out followed by Henry, Liza, The Butler and the chefs. ¡°Henry, I¡¯m really surprised that you people are all acting up just because of that cleaner.¡± Said Liza. ¡°Miss, someone we got home withst night is missing and you say we are acting up?¡± Henry responded angrily. ¡°Yes, the someone we got home with and you left her in the boot¡­¡± Liza was still talking when her words were cut short What? Elion and Henry asked at the same time and for the first time, Elion couldn¡¯t hide his concern towards E and asked Liza with an indifferent voice. ¡°So you knew all along that she was left in the boot yet you said nothing¡± ¡°And why do you care so much about Elion? Liza asked with so much jealousy but waspletely ignored by Elion whose eyes were fixed on the car as he watched Henry rush to the car to open the boot. When the boot was opened, E breathed fresh air for the first time as tears ran down her cheeks. Her eyes were swollen as she had cried the whole night. She looked at Henry and even though she had no energy left, she still greeted him leaving everyone shocked. She struggled to get out of the car but couldn¡¯t and Henry was about to carry her out of the car when his boss¡¯s cold voice came ringing into his ears. ¡°Get ady to carry her. She¡¯s not your wife.¡± Elion said coldly with an indifferent voice and Henry beckoned on two chefs to help out and they stepped forward and carried E out of the car. When they kept her down, she couldn¡¯t really stand on her feet so she held onto one of the chefs and greeted Elion politely. ¡°Good morning Master Elion. Without waiting for his response, she pleaded with the chef to support her as she walked. ¡°Please ma¡¯am help support me so I can get to the back corridor.¡± The chef held her tightly and The Butler was very angry to see Liza being hurt and so, she spoke sarcastically. ¡°E, why are you acting as though you are the only one that went through the surgery? Wasn¡¯t Liza operated as well?¡± E didn¡¯t say anything but continued going and it was then that Elion Copper saw the dress she was putting on and recognized it immediately because it was the same dress E had worn on her wedding day. He looked at the dress as memories of E¡¯s wedding day shed through his mind¡­ As soon as E stepped at the door, everyone turned and stared at her. Some sympathised with her, some were those who came to mock andugh at her, especially Maya and her crew. Others were just indifferent. After giving a meaning to all their gazes, E bent her head and looked at her feet as she walked up to where the groom was but after taking about fifteen steps, E¡¯s eyes widened in shock when she lifted her eyes and saw her supposed husband. She turned to run out but another voice in her scolded her and asked her to go back while the other voice kept persuading her to run out. While she was still thinking of which voice to obey, she heard people whispering behind her back. Isn¡¯t she a young mistress from the Anthonies? Said Girl B How can that be? Everyone knows that the only young mistress from the Madisons is Maya. Said Girl A Girl Cughed out silently but mockingly before saying sarcastically. ¡°Just look at what she is putting on. And to think that her terrible outdated gown also cuts across her knees is driving me crazy. As they continued to whisper, the disfigured crippled man on the wheelchair remained indifferent. He looked so terrifying as almost one part of his right jaw had been burned off. His best man stared at E back and bent a little and whispered something into Elion Copper¡¯s left ear. Acts Of Jealousy The whole day, Elion was very angry and grumpy in thepany and no one dared to question him or get on his bad side. He had never been this angry but he couldn¡¯t exin why he was angry. Since they were discharged from the hospital. Elion concentrated only on Liza¡¯s recovery and was with her at the hospital every two days for check up while E had no medical attention at all. Inorder to fight for her life, E borrowed $5000 from one of the chefs so she can use it in the hospital to pay for medical attention for herplete recovery. Eleven dayster, E was recovering very well and so, she was asked to get back to work. That night, she woke up at 10:00 PM and started dry cleaning the house while wiping all things in the house. When she was done, she went to the Masters Bedroom and gently knocked on the door. After knocking three times, she waited for the door to be opened from the inside or to be asked to enter. Just then, Elion opened the door from the inside and he was only putting on a shore with no top. Seeing him like that, E immediately closed her eyes and turned and faced the opposite side. Elion looked at the dry cleaning equipment on her hands and enquired. ¡°What are you doing with those things in your hands?¡± ¡°Good morning Master Elion. Miss Liza asked me to resume work today so I have already cleaned the whole house and the only ce left is the master¡¯s bedroom.¡± exined E calmly with a very weak voice. Hearing this, Elion was angry but had to suppress the anger and just left the door open for her to enter. Liza who heard Elion talking to E hurriedly removed her nightgown andid back on the bed exposing the upper part of her body which had just a small breast wear covering just part of herrge breasts and Elion didn¡¯t notice it at all. E came into the room with her back entering first while her face was facing the door. ¡°Why are you entering my room with your back? Elion asked indifferently. ¡°Master Elion, please put on a dress. It¡¯s not proper for me to see you in that state.¡± Eined with her back towards Elion who was sitting on the other side of the bed.Original from N?velDrama.Org. Liza took the opportunity and took a sitting position on the bed thereby exposing her naked body and with Elion being without a top or even an inner wear, anyone that saw them would think they were making out the whole night and that¡¯s exactly the impression Liza wanted to give E. ¡°E, looked at me then.¡± Liza said calmly. Thinking it was just Liza on the bed, E turned only to see the two naked people on the bed and she quickly shut her eyes and turned. She wanted to leave but knowing she had to be at thepany before 7:00 AM, she focused on the floor as she dry cleaned making sure she avoided the couple on the bed. When she was done, she shut the door behind her and breathed a sigh of relief. Later on during the day, Elion, Henry and Liza went to have lunch during theunch break. Liza saw E standing with a man and was very happy. E was putting on the gown Mr/Mrs Sam bought for her and since it was a fitting gown, her shape was a little visible. Liza knew E was going out with the man and was waiting for them to hug or kiss so she could draw the attention of Henry and Elion. Seeing that Liza was not so clinging as she has always been, Elion wondered what might be the cause and suddenly looked towards Liza to see what she was so concentrated on only to see her gaze focused on a particr location. He followed her gaze only to see E gleefully talking with a gentleman who seemed to be so interested in whatever E was telling him. Elion became very angry like never before and Henry who was concentrating on his food suddenly felt the strong change in the atmosphere for the air around him had suddenly be overbearing as though someone was about to die. Being used to situations like this, he followed his boss¡¯s gaze only to see E with another man. Elion Copper stood up and stormed towards them in anger like a man that has caught a cheating wife red-handed. As soon as he got there, he pulled E by the hair with so much rage and forced her to look at him. ¡°Here you are with one of your boyfriends and if someone calls you a slut or prostitute, you will shed crocodile tears and curse them for calling you names. You like to act so righteous yet here you are on a journey to fornication.¡± God forbid! Eximed E and The man at the same time. Liza and Henry watched silently and although Liza was hurt that Elion was acting out of jealousy, she was very fulfilled seeing E being caught red-handed. ¡°Greetings Master Elion. Please sir this is all a misunderstanding.¡± Exined the man in a haste and E didn¡¯t say anything to defend herself. Elion Copper ignored the man and dragged E out angrily. When they got out, he gave E just 5 minutes to be at the Company and he left in his car with Liza and Henry. At thepany, during the general meeting, Elion was very angry and overbearing. He was more angry than the way he was in the morning. He yelled at everyone and behaved as though he was running mad and he kept checking his wristwatch over and over. Understanding why he kept checking his time, Henry gave one of the security guards a call and asked him to bring E as soon as she arrived at thepany. Few minutester, the security guard knocked and entered, followed by E with swollen eyes. ¡°The prostitute is finally here.¡± Liza said as soon as E walked in causing everyone to turn and look towards the door only to see E standing there like a drenched rat. Ella Is Still A Virgin ¡°After being caught red-handed, what excuse do you have this time around?¡± Elion Copper asked with a lot of sarcasm in his tone and E felt so insulted in the presence of more than 20 people both old and young including Mr and Mrs Madison because they have been able to acquire 2% shares in thepany all thanks to Liza who helped them as a reward for Maya¡¯s assistance to her. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you defending yourself like you always do?¡± Elion asked. ¡°Master Elion, you shouldn¡¯t waste your time on this fool. She¡¯s not worth your time or anger. I¡¯m happy you caught her today yourself so it won¡¯t look like we are the ones cooking up stories about her.¡± Mrs. Adison exined victoriously. ¡°Master Elion, you misunderstood everything.¡± E exined in tears. ¡°Really? So why don¡¯t you bring forth your useless exnations so as to cover up?¡± Liza chipped in like a winner. ¡°Master Elion, you can ask Secretary Vicky, I pleaded with her to get me a rmendation letter so I can apply for a job which I did on Monday and was asked toe back today for the interview. The email was sent to Secretary Vicky¡¯s phone and duringunch time, I took it as an opportunity to go for the interview and I was there for the interview when you came up and started calling me names and insulting me.¡± E exined while crying seriously.Original content from N?velDrama.Org. ¡°What exactly do you need money for? I learned you live and work in Master Elion¡¯s Mansion and he has still employed you to work in hispany, what exactly do you and that your baboon husband needs money for? Asked Mr. Madison angrily. ¡°You are right sir, I live and work in Master Elion¡¯s house andpany because my husband sold me to master Elion. He hated me because of all the lies you told him about me¡­¡± E tried exining but was interrupted by Elion angrily. ¡°Shut up!¡± ¡°They were all lies? What exactly do you need another job for E? If you have so much time, there are still menial jobs both at home and in thepany here that can best fit you.¡± Liza asked like a bossdy. ¡°Miss Liza, how lucky are you to have a family that loves and provides for you and a fiance that loves you and can do anything just to make you happy to a point that even though you aren¡¯t working, you still have everything. Miss, I have none. I have no one that loves me, no one that cares for me. We were operated on two weeks ago yet almost everyday, you are being taken to the hospital for medical follow up while a poor girl like me that has no one is being left to die alone. Why do you think I¡¯m recovering so fast Miss Lizy? That¡¯s because I borrowed $25000 from one of the chefs in your Mansion and have been using it to settle my bills as I go for medical attention and treatment for my recovery process. Do you know if the chef didn¡¯t give me the money, I would have been dead by now? So I have a debt of $25000 to repay and I work in your Mansion and thispany for free because I was sold as a ve. Reason why I had to get another job so I can work and repay my debt but this afternoon, you people spoiled everything. Where do you think I¡¯m going to get another job to work and pay my debt?¡± E was shivering and sobbing violently as she exined her predicaments and everyone remained silent especially Elion who just realised how bad he had treated E by not taking her for her medical follow up and had equally misunderstood her again. Just then, Maya, who can¡¯t let E go just like that, suddenly spoke out. ¡°Are you trying to use a job to cover up your promiscuous ways? Why don¡¯t you just shut up and apologise to Master Elion and Miss Liza.¡± Apologise for what exactly Maya?¡± Asked E and seeing Maya quiet, she continued talking. ¡°Is it because I¡¯ve been quiet all these years? You humiliated me on my wedding day and made my husband resent me to the point that he had to sell me off as a ve. I never defended myself because I knew that on our first night as husband and wife, he was going to discover all your lies after finding out that I am still a virgin¡­¡± As soon as Elion heard the word virgin, he looked at E in disbelief and mockingly and ignoring him, E continued. ¡°But because he believed all your well cooked lies, he never even made any attempts on me. But today, I am ready to prove to everyone here that you and your family are nothing but liars.¡± ¡°Really? You want to prove us wrong? Why don¡¯t you go ahead.¡± Mrs. Madison requested victoriously. ¡°Find, Maya, let¡¯s go to the hospital for a virginity test.¡± Mayaughed out before saying mockingly. ¡°You want to prove that you are not a slut and instead want to take me to the hospital for a virginity test?¡± ¡°I¡¯m going there for myself Maya. You can ask the so-called boyfriend you snatched from me, he made several attempts on me but I never let him touch or kiss me because I had to keep myself preciously for my husband.¡± E exined, still in tears as she fell so wronged and knowing that E was just trying to cover up, she happily agreed to it. Five different shareholders including Elion Copper called their family doctors and when they came, they were told what tests to do and being watched through CCTV footage, they took E to the emergency room in thepany and did all types of tests on her. Three hourster, they all came in and the first person to give his report was The Madison¡¯s family doctor. ¡°Master Elion, all the tests are negative ex¡­¡± Everybody burst outughing and the Madisons and Lizaughed triumphantly while Elion Copper became visibly mad. He had secretly prayed for E to be a virgin but hearing this, he was shocked, including E. While others were stillughing, the words of the doctor left everyone stunned. ¡°With all due respect, I am not done yet. Like I said, all the tests are negative except for one that is positive.¡± ¡°HIV?¡± Asked Liza victoriously but with so much charisma and professionalism, the doctor replied to her coldly. ¡°No ma¡¯am, virginity.¡± E breathed a sigh of relief while everyone was visibly shocked but the Madisons didn¡¯t want to believe but the words of the other doctors left them dumbfounded. ¡°It¡¯s true Mr/Mrs Madison.¡± Left with no choice, Elion¡¯s personal doctor who had been bribed by Liza before the tests were done through a text message knew that if he changed the results, he will get caught so he had no choice than to say the truth which left Liza very furious and she looked at him with murderous eyes. ¡°Master Elion, my colleagues are right. All the results for STDs and the history of STDs are all negative and yes, she¡¯s still a virgin. Cold sweat broke out of Elion Copper¡¯s forehead as he looked at E with the most passionate and tender eyes that shot deep into E¡¯s heart making her heart skip a bit for no man had ever looked at her with such passion. Elion鈥檚 Hidden Love For Ella Elion couldn¡¯t control the feelings in his heart for he had never felt this way before. He couldn¡¯t exin how he felt but the only thing he knew is he had suddenly developed a strong sense of possessiveness and entitlement towards E and a strong desire to protect her even if it meant losing his own life. He stared at E with so much passion and E became ufortable and Liza couldn¡¯t stand it at all. She opened her mouth to talk but old Master Elion who had been quiet throughout suddenlyughed out gleefully and walked towards E. ¡°I¡¯ve always known that you are my sweet little innocent angel in the hands of vampires. Your husband should bring you to my mansion tomorrow. I have something to pass on to you.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you think you are overreacting? Aren¡¯t you supposed to pass on whatever you want to pass on to your own son or grandson rather than a¡­¡± Elion was still trying to rebuke his father when E interrupted him. ¡°Old Master Elion, actually my husband has been away for over two years now so we won¡¯t be able toe tomorrow.¡± While pointing at Elion behind him with his walking stick and talking to E in front of him, Old Master Elion chipped in mockingly. ¡°Is that what this bastard told you? Don¡¯t listen to him. He knows where your husband is and he is in this town. In fact he knows everything about your husband and if you asked him and he isn¡¯t willing to tell you,e straight to me this evening and I will¡­¡± As if he was scared of something, Elion suddenly walked up and whispered something into E¡¯s ears but to the hearing of everyone in the room. ¡°Meet me in my office in the next sixty seconds.¡± As soon as Elion walked out, Liza stood and tried to catch up with him but before she bypassed E, she looked at her with so much hate and envy before running towards Elion. Old Master Elion took E by hand to the amazement of everyone and went to Elion¡¯s office. Elion was so restless when he got into his office and with his back against the door, he kept wiping his face and walking to and fro. The office door soon opened and he immediately called E¡¯s name as he turned to exin things but as soon as he turned, his eyes met with Liza¡¯s teary eyes and he became very angry and disappointed at the same time. ¡°Elion, are there things you have been keeping from me?¡± Liza asked seductively. ¡°Do I need to report to you what I do or not?¡± Elion was fuming with anger and didn¡¯t even realise that Old Master Elion and E had just stepped into the office. As soon as Liza saw them, she intentionally hugged Elion while acting like a child that has been wronged. ¡°Elion, you used to tell me everything. What has changed? If I¡¯ve done something wrong, please let me know so I can apologise.¡± ¡°Liza, please stop all this. We are all mature now so a lot has changed.¡± Elion tried exining but his father hit his head with his walking stick which caused him to push Liza away unconsciously and turned only to see his father holding E very tight. His lustful eyes scanned E from head to toe as his breathing increased and he called out E¡¯s name in a very romantic way and unconsciously started exining why Liza was hugging him. ¡°E, we were just talking because a lot has changed and¡­¡± ¡°Elion, what you should be doing now is telling her about her husband¡¯s whereabouts and not trying to exin why you will let another woman hug you as though you two are in a rtionship. Liza, if you two continue like this, you will have serious issues with your spouses tomorrow. The two of you need to set a lot of boundaries.¡± Old Master Elion warned. When they were about to go home, Elion Copper, Henry, Liza and E walked out of the building and E, as usual, didn¡¯t follow them to the car because she is used to trekking home. As soon as E took a few steps, Elion looked at Henry with pleading eyes and Henry immediately understood what his boss wanted and he immediately called out to E. ¡°E, you can join us.¡± Hearing this, Elion breathed a sigh of relief and waited expectantly for E to join them. Liza was fuming with anger and clenched her fist as if she was going to p E if she epted the offer. E turned and bowed towards them respectfully before declining. ¡°With all due respect Sir Henry, I¡¯m used to trekking home and by the way, I still have to check out for avable jobs on my way.¡± Hearing this, Elion felt like his heart was being torn apart and he immediately tried to plead. ¡°E, just join us. It¡¯s an order from your boss, remember you will have to make me a cup of coffee when I get home meaning I can¡¯t get home before you.¡±Original from N?velDrama.Org. Hearing this, E walked towards the car and stood by the boot which worsened the pain in Elion¡¯s heart. Henry rushed over and opened the left back door for E but Liza, sensing what Henry was insinuating ran over and got into the back seat and Elion opened the front door and beckoned on E to sit next to the driver¡¯s seat. Feeling shy for the kind gesture, E bowed in respect before she got into the car. When they got back, as soon as E got out of the car, she thanked them and walked towards the back corridor. Elion wanted to stop her but Liza suddenly came over and dragged him into the house. In the evening, Elion was discussing secretly with The Butler in the presence of Henry in his study when E brought his coffee. As soon as she was about to knock on the door, she heard the discussions inside the study and was stunned. Shepletely forgot that she was holding a cup of hot coffee and she didn¡¯t realise when the cup felt down breaking into pieces which caused the people inside the study to rush to the door and immediately Henry opened the door, the shocked E looked at Elion in disbelief making everyone especially Elion ufortable because he knew E overheard their discussions. Elion Chose To Protect Liza And Not Ella ¡°E?¡± Elion called out as if he was confused if it was actually E. ¡°Master Elion, did my husband sell me to you as a wife? How can he do such a despicable thing? Am I really that irritating? I had no idea he hated me that much to sell me to someone like you.¡± Emented in disbelief. Elion opened his mouth to speak but didn¡¯t know what to say. He opened his mouth again but E looked at the shattered cup on the floor and suddenly ran away and returned with a dustpan and carefully gathered the pieces of the broken cup. As soon as she gathered everything, she stood up and left without looking back. After returning to the back corridor, she was very restless. She didn¡¯t believe what she just heard. Elions¡¯ voice kept ringing over and over in her head. ¡°Henry, and my dad, are the only ones that know I am married. Right now, I am telling you now so you know as well. E doesn¡¯t even know that she¡¯s my wife and I haven¡¯t been able to bring myself to tell her.¡± These words kept ringing in her mind and tears ran down her cheeks uncontrobly. The next day, E acted as if she knew nothing and did her chores as usual before leaving for work. When she was done cleaning at thepany, as usual, she freshened up in one of the baths in thepany and as usual, she made a cup of coffee for Elion and took it into his office. When she handed him the coffee, she stood beside him and took a deep breath before speaking up. ¡°Master Elion, please there¡¯s something that has been bothering me for a while now and I wish to share it with you.¡± Elion smiled to her amazement and ced his back on the chair rest before responding. ¡°Take a seat so we can talk.¡± Master Elion, I prefer standing up. Feeling disappointed, Elion nodded a go ahead and she spoke very calmly but every word was embodied by fear. ¡°Master Elion, thank you for granting me an audience. Sir, I have something that has been bothering me for a very long time. Actually, I have a strong feeling that Liza didn¡¯t undergo any kidney transnt.¡± ¡°Can you repeat what you just said?¡± Elion requested in boiling anger. ¡°Master Elion, I have a strong feeling that she didn¡¯t have a kidney transnt¡­¡± E was still talking when Elion poured the hot coffee on her hand causing it to burn instantly. E held her hand and cried out in pain. Just then, Liza bounced in and seeing E being pinned to the wall by Elion, the joy in her heart was unspeakable. ¡°How dare you E. Who do you think you are to try to spoil my rtionship? Are you mad, how dare you?¡± Elion asked all the questions at once leaving no room for E to respond. ¡°E, how dare you make Master Elion angry? Who do you think you are?¡± Liza intervened without even knowing what had transpired. That evening, Elion left thepany fuming in anger, he dragged E down stairs not minding her wounding her legs from constant falls. As soon as they got close to the car, Liza ran to the front seat and opened the boot and Elion t pushed E into the boot like a log of wood and got into the car. Henry sped up as soon as Liza got into the backseat with Elion.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. When they got home, seeing that Elion had burnt E¡¯s hand, she conceived a very wicked idea. Liza ordered one of the chefs to heat oil. When the chef brought the oil, shemanded some guards to hold E and she dipped the already half burnt hand into the oil. E cried out like a woman inbour because the pains were unbearable. She looked at Elion and cried out for help. ¡°Master Elion, please help me, please stop her, I will die soon if she continues. Please sir, it hurts. Please help me. Please sir help me. Liza And Elion Burnt Ella As though E meant nothing, Elion didn¡¯t even give her a nce. E was wailing as though she had met her end. When Liza was finally satisfied, she let go of E¡¯s hand and asked the guards to let go of her as well. As soon as they let go of E, she ran at a very high speed out of the living room and ran towards the swimming pool. As she got closer to the pool, she fell into it with all her might. Elion, who was standing at the balcony, witnessed everything. He felt pithy for her and didn¡¯t understand why he was sympathising with her instead of hating her. After waiting in the water for some minutes, E finally got out of the pool only to meet Liza standing like the owner of the vi. Liza bounced towards E with so much resentment. Elion who witnessed everything said nothing to Liza nor stopped her. He was just busy sipping his wine as though he was being entertained by the torture of E. ¡°Cleaner, how dare you get into this pool with this smelly body of yours? How dare you E? Now you are going to go in there, drain all the water and disinfect it.¡± After passing her orders profusely, she left and bounced back into the house and joined Elion at the balcony upstairs and the two of them watched E toiling up and down. E had been asked to use a bucket to drain all the water from the pool so she got a bucket, and carried the water from the pool and emptied it out of the gate. Her right hand was burnt and she could only depend on her left hand for the job. In a twinkle of an eye, four hours had passed already and E was yet to empty the pool and before she knew it, it was past 10:00 PM already meaning it was time for her to start doing her house chores. Not knowing exactly what to do, she finally decided to leave the pool and do her house chores. If not, she will be in great trouble the next day. After she did all the chores, she finally left the vi and staggered to thepany as if she was almost drunk. When she got to thepany, everyone ran away from her due to the manner at which her right hand was. It waspletely peeled off and E¡¯s eyes were very swollen since she hadn¡¯t slept the whole night. Looking at her appearance, one will think she was going to die the next minute because she was looking very weak and tired because she hadn¡¯t eaten anything for two days. Just when she was done cleaning and was about to take a rest, Liza suddenly dragged her unexpectedly and she almost lose guard. Before she could bnce herself, she was mercilessly dragged by Liza by her hair to Elion¡¯s office. ¡°Why did you bring her here?¡± Asked Elion who hadn¡¯t seen E¡¯s burnt hand and so, he continued talking coldly. ¡°You should deal with her by yourself. Whatever you want to do with her, just do it.¡± Elion said without looking at the twodies and Just then, Maya knocked and entered and as soon as she greeted Elion in a very seductive manner, she turned to Liza and greeted her as well before looking at E with so much disgust. ¡°E, will you always cause trouble? When will you stop?¡± Liza who became more disgusted soon pushed E with force and she fell hitting her burnt hand on the floor which caused her to cry out in pain like a woman inbour who was giving herst push. Elion was caught off guard and quickly looked towards E only to see the horribly burnt hand and he was left speechless because he didn¡¯t believe Liza could have the heart to treat anotherdy in that manner. ¡°E, your hand¡­¡± As soon as Elion was about to ask E what happened to her hand, he suddenly turned towards Liza and, the cries of E the previous day when the act was beingmitted came fresh in his mind and he regretted why he didn¡¯t intervene. He tried to brush off the thoughts but the memories upied his mindpletely. ¡°Master Elion, please help me, please stop her, I will die soon if she continues. Please sir, it hurts. Please help me. Please help me.¡± These words kept ringing in Elion¡¯s mind and he turned towards Liza in a very angry manner. ¡°Liza, how can you be this heartless? Where did you even get the heart to burn someone to this degree?¡± ¡°Elion, why are you angry? Aren¡¯t you supposed to thank me for always standing up for you and watching your back? By the way, didn¡¯t you burn her first?¡± Liza was talking uncontrobly in tears as she was so angry that Elion was mad at her instead of thanking her. As soon as Liza mentioned the fact that Elion burnt E first, the moments of the previous day when Elion poured a cup of hot coffee on E¡¯s right hand came afresh in his mind. ¡°Master Elion, thank you for granting me an audience. Sir, I have something that has been bothering me for a very long time. Actually, I have a strong feeling that Liza didn¡¯t undergo any kidney transnt.¡± ¡°Can you repeat what you just said?¡± Elion requested in boiling anger. ¡°Master Elion, I have a strong feeling that she didn¡¯t have a kidney transnt¡­¡± E was still talking when Elion poured the hot coffee on her hand causing it to burn instantly. E held her hand and cried out in pain.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. Under the watchful eyes of Liza and Maya, Elion walked towards E who was still lying on the floor while crying like a baby. Elion tried to help her stand on her feet but what E said next stunned him to the core and at the same time, it left a deep wound in his heart. ¡°Master Elion, please sir, I don¡¯t want to stand. I want to see my husband. Please sir, take me to my husband. I want to tell him that I¡¯m innocent of all the usations so that he can ept me again. I want to have just at least one person in this world that epts me. I just want him to know I¡¯m innocent so that he can ept me. I just want someone to love me. I just want to feel loved.¡± E said all these to the hearing of Henry who just came into The President¡¯s office with a pile of papers. Hearing these words, Henry and Elion exchanged meaningful nces while Maya tried to silently calm Liza who was looking at E and Elion with so much rage. Ella On The Ladder To Greatness ¡°E, you brought this upon yourself so you shouldn¡¯t me anyone for your own issues. This has nothing to do with you nor your husband so cut the crap.¡± Elion said indifferently and Liza, who was already tense, suddenly calmed down and smiled cheerfully. During the Board meeting, Liza who was sitting next to Elion suddenly intervened one of the shareholders who was talking and despite the fact that he got angry, he managed topose himself because he knew that going against Liza means going against Elion. ¡°E, go make two cups of coffee. One for Elion and one for me.¡± Listening to Liza¡¯s orders, she felt a sharp pain in her heart and without a word, she walked out of the conference room to make the coffee. When she was about to make the coffee, she looked at her hand and went to the emergency room to meet the doctor. When she got there, the doctor was shocked to see the degree to which her hand was burnt. He gently cleaned the wound and wrapped a bandage round the burnt hand. E smiled with tears running down her cheeks and thanked the doctor genuinely. She went back to the coffee room and after making two cups of coffee, she ced them on a tray and took it to the conference room. When she approached the door, she gently knocked and entered. She ced Liza¡¯s coffee in front of her and went up to Elion to drop his own coffee. As soon as she got there, she gently ced the coffee cup in front of him and just then, his eyes fell on E¡¯s bandaged hand and he unconsciously looked at her pale face before bncing on his seat in a guilty manner. E bowed in respect and was about to walk out of the office when Elion¡¯s question stopped her. ¡°Are you going to leave this coffee cup here?¡± E stopped and turned to look at Elion who was looking directly into her eyes in a very lustful manner. Liza saw this and was filled with rage but didn¡¯t dare to interrupt the meeting. E walked back towards Elion, took the coffee cup and was about to leave when Elion angrily stopped her. ¡°You are going to be my side stool.¡± Liza smiled triumphantly and sipped her coffee while E, who was very weak because she hadn¡¯t eaten for two days nor slept the previous night, stood beside Elion reluctantly. Elion took the coffee cup from the tray on E¡¯s hands, took a sip and gently ced it back on it. He repeated the same thing throughout the meeting. ¡°Master Elion, we really need a new neutral project to invest in as soon as possible. If not, ourpetitors will overtake us.¡± One of the shareholders suggested and everyone nodded in agreement. ¡°That¡¯s exactly why we are all here. We need a very good project but the question now is, how can we get a good one.¡± Henry responded on behalf of his boss. Everyone was really disturbed because Elion became visibly furious and before the meeting was over, he stood and walked out of the meeting room without altering a word. Back in his office, he sat down quietly but was very worried. Henry and Lizater joined him in the office and sat opposite him. When E got out of the conference room, all she wanted was to have some rest. Instead of resting in thepany, she decided to make her way home in order to avoid anyone disturbing her sleep but Elion declined. In the evening, as soon as Eliot, Henry and Liza returned from thepany, Elion retired back to study and shut the door while E went straight to the back corridor and slept off. E woke up around 8:00 PM and went looking for Elion. After making him a cup of coffee, E went to the living room and ignoring Liza, she asked Henry for the whereabouts of Elion. ¡°Sir Henry, please where is Master Elion? ¡°Do not disturb him, cleaner, he had a very bad day and doesn¡¯t want to be disturbed.¡± Liza responded arrogantly.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org. ¡°Miss Liza, I am only doing my job in which I might get into serious issues if I fail to do so.¡± E responded with so much disdain. ¡°Master Elion is in his study.¡± Henry responded with a frown and E noded with a smile. She walked upstairs and gently knocked on the door to the study but there was no response. After knocking without a response for a good number of times, E gently pushed open the door and tried to peep in only for her eyes to be met with the angry face of his boss looking directly at her. Seeing E, he suddenly calmed down without knowing why but his appearance was still the same but his heart was at ease. She ignored the angry man and entered with the coffee and shut the door as she entered. ¡°Master Elion, your coffee is ready.¡± After cing the coffee on the table, E turned to leave but turned back towards Elion and made a request to him. ¡°Master Elion, I have a great project that can save yourpany but If I have to give you the project, then you will have to grant my request.¡± E said and waited for a response but Elion seemed to be uninterested and she left in disappointment. Just as she was about to open the door, Elion¡¯s sarcastic words took her by surprise and she confidently disproved him. ¡°What great project cane from a low life like you?¡± Elion asked with an indifferent voice and E turned and took short steps towards him as if she was afraid to face him. ¡°Master Elion, the rich can afford anything they want while the poor like me at times, due to the circumstances of life, we don¡¯t even own our lives but the truth is, both the poor and the rich do dream. Great ideas are meant for anyone that can dream big whether rich or poor. Great ideas don¡¯t discriminate. The only thing that can limit a poor man with great ideas is capital or greedy rich men who are envious or threatened by the growth of others. Master Elion, if you really want to keep yourpany at the top, then you really have to give me the chance to present my project tomorrow.¡± ¡°Why would you want to help me of all people?¡± Elion asked mockingly. ¡°I will tell you tomorrow during the board meeting.¡± E said and left the study confidently. As soon as she left, Elion gave Henry a call. ¡°Master Elion.¡± Henry greeted in respect as soon as he ced the phone on his ear. ¡°Call for an emergency meeting tomorrow morning.¡± Elion said and dropped the call and E who just walked into the living room from Elion¡¯s office smiled victoriously and walked towards Henry. ¡°Sir Henry, please can you lend me $500?¡± E pleaded and Lizaughed out and said mockingly. ¡°You are borrowing $500? Isn¡¯t this the height of poverty?¡± Henry was shocked but responded calmly. ¡°Of course E.¡± Elion Kissed Ella Passionately After returning to the back corridor, E couldn¡¯t sleep. She kept rolling from one side to the other for fear that Elion might turn down her request. After thinking for a while, she stood and ran back to the living room but suddenly came to a halt when she saw Henry and Elion sitting at the bar in the living room drinking some wine. Out of fear, she turned and was about to leave when Elion¡¯s cold words brought her to a halt. ¡°What exactly did you want to steal and had to leave when you saw us?¡± ¡°I wasn¡¯ting to steal Master Elion. I wanted to ask Sir Henry for a favour.¡± E responded faced down. Fuming in anger, Elion coughed lightly before talking. ¡°What favour would you prefer asking Henry other than me? What favour will a marrieddy want from a man in the middle of the night?¡± ¡°Nothing Master Elion, I¡­¡± E was still talking when Elion¡¯s cold voice interrupted. ¡°Speak up. Are you two ying games behind my back?¡± ¡°Master Elion, not at all sir.¡± Henry responded with a stunned voice and seeing that her silence might cause an issue, E decided to speak up. ¡°Master Elion, I wanted to borrow hisptop and a harddrive.¡± Fuming with jealousy, Elion responded and left without looking at Henry. ¡°There¡¯s aptop and a harddrive on the table in my study.¡± E and Henry looked at the back of the man going upstairs in a rage and the two of them smiled. E followed Elion and by the time she got to the study, the door was already closed. She gently knocked and without a response, she opened the door and sent in her head first but didn¡¯t see Elion. She smiled and breathed a sigh of relief before talking to herself.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°That grumpy man isn¡¯t here.¡± After assuring herself, she finally entered and just when she shut the door, she was suddenly dragged and forced against the wall. E looked at Elion in front of her in disbelief. She opened her mouth to speak but Elion sealed her words with a kiss and E was taken aback by the sudden kiss. She became very angry but Elion didn¡¯t want to let go. His lips were very soft and tender making E¡¯s heart skip a bit. Elion couldn¡¯t resist the soft lips in front of him. He had kissed many Lady¡¯s in the past but none ever tasted like the tenderdy in front of him whom he had loved for long. Just when E thought the kiss was over, he pressed on to her lips and parted her lips with his tongue and as soon as he touched her tongue with his tongue, he grabbed her tongue and sucked it as if his life depended on it. E used the opportunity to bite his tongue and it finally brought Elion back to his senses. Looking at the teary eyes of thedy In Front of him, Elion couldn¡¯t help but feel pity for her because he knew he had wronged her. ¡°I¡¯m sorry my girl. I can¡¯t get over you and I became really hurt when you got to Henry for help instead of me.¡± The angry E didn¡¯t respond but quietly walked to the table, took theptop on the table and amongst the five hard drives on the table, she was confused on which one to take and Elion suddenly told her which one to take as if he read her mind. ¡°Take the red one.¡± Without a word, E picked up the sh and held theptop tight to her chest with her two hands. When she got towards the door, she avoided any eye contact with Elion and lifted her eyes just when she wanted to open the door only to realise that Elion was leaning with his back against the closed door meaning there was no way she could open the door and like a child asking for mercy, she pleaded with Elion to let her leave. ¡°Master Elion, please I really need to go now.¡± Ignoring her, Elion Copper stared at her as if he was going to devour her the next second. Lust into thedy in front of him, he asked romantically. ¡°Why are you avoiding me? You know you are my wife but you have been starving me¡­¡± Elion was brutally interrupted by the angry E. ¡°Master Elion, I am not your wife. My husband sold me to you without my knowledge. If I knew, I would not have epted and secondly you had no right to kiss me. You don¡¯t deserve my first kiss. Thirdly, I don¡¯t want to have any trouble with your fiance¡­¡± ¡°Liza is just a friend. My childhood friend and that¡¯s all.¡± Elion exined while staring at E with so much passion but E gave him no space. ¡°Friends with benefits and Liza really loves you and on your part, you cherish her more than thedy you bought as a wife which means you love Liza.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not true my girl. Please can you spend the night with me?¡± E was about to refuse but an idea came to her mind and knowing that it was impossible, she voiced out her response victoriously. ¡°Master Elion, I will spend the night with you¡­¡± Hearing this, Elion smiled broadly which left E shocked after seeing him smile for the first time. ¡°If it¡¯s at my ce.¡± Said E ¡°Your ce?¡± Elion asked. ¡°Yes, where I sleep. That¡¯s the only way I can spend the night with you.¡± replied E victoriously but Elion¡¯s next words rendered her speechless. ¡°Then it¡¯s fine, let¡¯s go.¡± E opened her mouth in astonishment after hearing Elion¡¯s response. She was shocked to the core and Elion took theptop from her hands and knowingly walked out of the study. E followed after him but knew he was surely going to give up but to her greatest surprise, after reaching the living room, Elion walked out of the door without even ncing at Henry who ran after him thinking he was going to thepany but to his greatest surprise, as soon as Elion got out of the door, he turned right and took the direction to the back corridor and Henry followed him in confusion and E followed after Henry in amazement. When Elion arrived at the spot, he got to the corridor and after putting theptop on the floor, he sat down to the amazement of Henry and E. E opened her mouth to talk but he interrupted her with a gentle smile leaving Henry stunned. ¡°Master Elion¡­¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you say we should pass the night here? Do you want to go back on your words?¡± Hearing this, Henry smiled and emptied his wine ss which he had brought along. Ella The Mysterious Heiress Throughout the night, E was busy on theptop and she even forgot to do her chores. Elion was amazed by how elegant she could work on theptop and how concentrated she was, which was unlike Liza who sticks around him like a missing dog that knows not its direction. Elion didn¡¯t sleep the whole night because he was busy lusting after the elegantdy in front of him. Before they realised, it was already 7:00 AM and Elion left without uttering a word and E quickly ran through her project and when she was satisfied, she closed theptop and smiled cheerfully. She left the house after collecting the money she borrowed from Henry and went straight to the hospital and met the nurse who had fed her when she was operated upon. The two youngdies left the hospital and went straight to a shop to get a dress for E and the nurse was already putting on a ckdy¡¯s suit which made her look like an untouchable bodyguard . When she arrived at the shop, she tried on many dresses and finally picked a red dress. She went to a hairstylist and got her hair and makeup done. She pleaded with the stylist to get her a safe ce to change her dress and her request was granted. After putting on the red gown which cut across her knees, E was like a fairy. She was just too beautiful and everyone was stunned when she came out of the dressing room. Looking at herself in the mirror, she smiled and assured herself. ¡°Baby girl, it¡¯s time to change the narratives.¡± After assuring herself, she left triumphantly and anyone that saw her was carried away. She looked like a billionaire heiress. As soon as she got to thepany, no one recognized her and she paid no attention to all the eyes on her and all the tongues talking about her. When she got to the receptionist, they weed her with a lot of respect and took her to the president¡¯s elevator. No one recognised her and so, they all treated her like a mysterious heiress. As soon as the elevator reached the 13th floor, she walked out elegantly followed by the Raisa who happens to be the nurse and now; her PA and bodyguard. When they walked out of the elevator, a security guard led them to the door leading into the conference room. The guard on standby quickly opened the door for her after greeting her with so much respect because he had no idea that the same E that they have been under rating was the elegant heiress in front of her. When the door opened, E walked in like a goddess and everyone was stunned by the domineering atmosphere she carried. Elion and Henry, who were the only ones that knew that E was the one with the new project, looked at themselves in concussion and seeing the confused look on his boss¡¯ face, Henry stood and walked towards him and brought his ear to his lips to hear what he had to say. ¡°What¡¯s she up to? Why did she send someone else to represent her?¡± Elion voiced out in concussion and Henry who had no answer shook his head in disappointment. Seeing the way Elion stared at the goddess that had brought everyone in the meeting room to their knees, Liza was fuming with anger but at the same time she was scared to speak because she didn¡¯t know the identity of the woman in front of her. ¡°Good morning Master Elion, good morning shareholders. Thank you for honouring my request and granting me the audience.¡± E greeted with a cheerful smile and looked at Liza and Maya victoriously and then greeted them specially. ¡°Miss Liza and Miss Maya, are you here too? Wow, it¡¯s amazing you know. I thought the meeting was strictly for shareholders.¡± ¡°Greetings ma¡¯am, I¡¯m surprised you know my name. Actually I am the only daughter to Mr/Mrs Madison and they are training me as the heiress who will take over thepanies. I¡¯m happy to meet you in person and I hope we coborate in the future.¡± Maya exined cheerfully and panicky and her parents were very proud to see their daughter reaching out for a coboration with thisdy with a magnificent background and who had the capacity to restore the face of the greatpany. E only responded to Maya with a smile and looked at Elion who was looking at her with a confused look with the sentence ¡°who are you¡± written all over his face and E decided to help him solve the puzzle but in a very smart way without revealing her identity. ¡°Master Elion, no coffee in the morning?¡± E asked and winked her right eye and Henry and Elion were stunned to finally discover that it was actually E and Elion responded to her question with an answer that confused many people. ¡°The cleaner who was in charge of that has changed her address.¡± ¡°Elion, what are you talking about? Did you let go of E just like that?¡± Liza asked angrily but Elion ignored her and continued looking at E lustfully before giving her the go ahead but the manner at which he addressed thedy stunned everyone especially Henry and E.Original content from N?velDrama.Org. ¡°It¡¯s a pleasure to have Lady Copper extend a helping hand to mypany.¡± The look on everyone¡¯s face was that of shock but Elion ignored them and continued still emphasising the words Lady Copper as though he was sounding a warning to E. ¡°Lady Copper, as you can see, everyone is here and we were just waiting for you.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened and a youngdy stepped in and greeted E cheerfully before greeting any order person. ¡°Ma¡¯am, all the documents are ready.¡± Thedy said cheerfully and Henry immediately recognized her as the nurse who fed E when she had a surgery. As soon as he recognized her, he bent towards his boss¡¯ ear and whispered something and Elion gave thedy a meaningful look and a smile of satisfaction. The appearance of Raisa and the charisma she projected stunned Elion and Henry. They couldn¡¯t believe E was this capable. ¡°Risia, distribute the documents to them.¡± E ordered. ¡°Okay ma¡¯am.¡± Raisa responded and started the distribution and when she was done, E started her presentation. ¡°We are all business men and women and all business oriented so, before revealing the project, you all are going to elect 7 people out of the 12 shareholders here who will first of all sign the agreement you all are looking at.¡± Said E confidently. ¡°You want to own 60% of the shares of the new project?¡± Mrs Madison asked in dissatisfaction after flipping through the agreement. ¡°With all due respect Mrs. Madison, I am not selfish with my ideas and won¡¯t want to work with selfish people. Or do you think your daughter has a better project?¡± E responded indifferently leaving Elion amazed at her high level of professionalism and everyone was quiet. ¡°I think owning 60% of the shares is not a big request at all if her project can be able to keep us at the top.¡± One of the shareholders responded and everyone nodded in satisfaction and the seven people were immediately assigned to sign the agreement and E, being satisfied, asked her Personal Assistant to project the project. Elion Copper Is Married ¡°I am first of all going to start with the restaurant part of the ¡­¡± E had just started talking when Liza, who had been looking for the least opportunity to discredit her, interrupted her mockingly. ¡°You made us wait here to talk about a restaurant where there are restaurants everywhere?¡± ¡°Miss Liza, thest time I checked, you aren¡¯t a shareholder in thispany yet, you act like you own thispany. Didn¡¯t your parents teach you manners? You are condemning a restaurant project, which idea do you have? Now, listen very attentively, until I roundup with my presentation, Liza you are hereby prohibited to talk or shake from where you are sitting.¡± E warned with an overbearing tone and Liza looked at Elion for help but hepletely ignored her and she had no choice but to be calm and E looked at Elion as if she wanted to ask, ¡°Why didn¡¯t you defend her this time around¡±? After looking at Elion, she smiled and continued with her exposition. ¡°Like I was saying, There are many people that desire just to get into a ne but they don¡¯t have the means¡­¡± ¡°From restaurant to ne.¡± Liza whispered to the hearing of everyone and was about tough when E walked up to her in a domineering manner and gave her a very hard p leaving everyone stunned because no one has ever dared to p her not to mention pping her in public. Everyone looked at Elion to say something but he remained quietly and gave a deaf ear to Liza¡¯s sobs. Seeing that Elion said nothing, Liza stood and was about to leave but Raisa forced her back to her seat and everyone was stunned by how skillfully she did it effortlessly. ¡°No one dared to walk out on my boss or disobey her.¡± Raisa warned and Liza sat in embarrassment. ¡°Like I was saying before the devil interrupted, so many people don¡¯t have the means to get into a ne and so, to make our restaurants outstanding, the structure of our restaurants should be exactly like a ne both from the outside and the inside¡­¡± Elion Copper pped to the amazement of everyone and they immediately joined him and the grumpy faces suddenly became that of satisfaction and Liza was shocked how good the project was. ¡± So, In order to generate more ie, we are going to build three of these structures on the same piece ofnd in each town. We will have an economics ss¡­¡± After E carefully rounded up with her presentation, everyone was very satisfied and they couldn¡¯t hide their joy. Henry was very satisfied and knowing he couldn¡¯t give E a handshake to congratte her, he rather went to her assistant and gave her a tight hug beforeplementing her boss. ¡°You have a great boss and I¡¯m happy she¡¯s my boss too.¡± Raisa reciprocated the hug and nodded in satisfaction. The remaining five that had to sign after the presentation immediately signed the agreement and going through the signed agreements, E saw Elion¡¯s signature for the very first time and was shocked. She had seen the exact signature somewhere but couldn¡¯t really recall where exactly. Just when she was about going to the next agreement, she suddenly recalled where she saw the signature. It was the same as that of her disabled husband four years ago and this reality stoke her like a tornado. In order to confirm her suspicions, she sought out Henry¡¯s agreement and checked his signature and was shocked to see that it looked exactly like that of her brother-inw four years ago. She looked at the signatures again and looked at Elion who had not gotten his eyes off her ever since she stepped in. E walked up to Elion without anyone noticing since they were all going through the documented project that had just been presented and Elion, E, Henry and Raisa equally didn¡¯t reveal the tension at the moment. She looked at Elion who was looking at her with so much lust and passion. E was about tearing up and Elion and Henry were confused about what the issue was and before they could say anything, E¡¯s question confused them the most. ¡°My husband of four years ago does not actually exist right?¡± Seeing the shock on their faces, E continued. ¡°Even his brother doesn¡¯t exist right?¡± ¡°What are you talking about?¡± Elion asked with so much affection in his voice. ¡°You really want to know what I¡¯m talking about? Aren¡¯t you the one to exin to me what I¡¯m talking about?¡± She ced the two agreements containing the two signatures on the table in front of Elion before she continued. ¡°The two signatures in front of you are the same as that of my husband and brother-inw of four years ago who disappeared the same day you two came into the picture.¡± Hearing this, Elion and Henry thought E had misunderstood the whole thing and Elion tried denouncing her suspicions but was stunned by E¡¯s response. ¡°My girl, nothing happened to your husband or his brother. I didn¡¯t harm them¡­¡± ¡°You didn¡¯t harm them because they didn¡¯t exist. That man of four years ago was actually you and his brother; your PA here. Why did you have to deceive me? Why? That¡¯s the reason why you constantly reminded me that I am a married woman? So, no one actually sold me to you?¡± ¡°Your foster parents did.¡± Elion responded like a child trying to defend himself. The tension on their faces and voices were so strong but they had to keep their voices low for fear of revealing things. Just then, Liza and Maya were done going through the project only to lift their heads to see Elion and E staring into each other¡¯s eyes and the atmosphere around them was very tense. Liza quickly called out to Elion and started attacking E with words. ¡°Elion, is everything okay?¡± Liza¡¯s concerned voice was what finally brought the two of them back to their senses and they both looked at Liza at the same time and Liza who was angry with E couldn¡¯t hold it anymore. ¡°Miss, what right do you think you have to try to intimidate Elion?¡± Liza¡¯s words made everyone look towards Elion and E in anticipation. ¡°And who do you think you are to question me?¡± She turned to Elion and added. ¡°Warn this your dog not to bark at just everyone else¡¯s, I will let my PA show her the difference between a toothless bulldog and a dog that doesn¡¯t bark at all but whose bite is a timely bomb.¡± E¡¯s words made Liza more angry and she responded victoriously.¡± ¡°His best friend, I am his childhood friend, the only one who knows everything about him.¡± E burst outughing after listening to Liza and she responded mockingly. ¡°Oh Liza, you are indeed his childhood friend?¡± ¡°Yes, the only one that has been with him since he was just 5 years old.¡± Liza said like the firstdy. ¡°Oh I see, didn¡¯t you just say you know everything about him?¡± E asked sarcastically with folded arms. ¡°Everything miss. I know everything.¡± Liza responded and E turned to Elion and the manner at which she addressed Elion and what she said next shocked everyone to the core because it was something none could ever imagine especially Liza. Even Elion and Henry were shocked to the core and this was the first time that Elion was visibly shocked. ¡°Oh I see. Elion, so she¡¯s aware you got married four years ago?¡± Elion was stunned but at the same time very pleased because since he saw E in the morning, he suddenly developed the burning desire to shout it out loud to the whole world that E is his wife and the onlydy he had ever loved. ¡°Married? Elion?¡± Liza asked andughed out mockingly. ¡°For your information, Elion is not married and doesn¡¯t even have ns to do so anytime soon.¡± Instead of responding, E smiled victoriously and looked at Elion whose answer shocked everyone.Original content from N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Liza, she¡¯s right. I am happily married. I got married four years ago. Ella鈥檚 Twin Sister The teary Liza asked again hoping it was a prank but E¡¯s answer made her more angrier. ¡°Elion, you are what?¡± ¡°Married Liza. He is married and guess what, you are the third wheel in his marriage. And you should stop addressing him with his first name because you are not his wife.¡± Seeing E talking about their marriage with so much pride, Elion became very happy because to him, he thought E was jealous so he knew he was one step closer to making her fall for him. The atmosphere in the room was very tense and Elion sat on his seat as if the man the twodies were fusing over wasn¡¯t him. ¡°Why is Liza mad as if she has been cheated upon? Were you two in a rtionship, Elion? Being at a tight corner, Elion took a deep breath and spoke indifferently. ¡°I might have been a yboy in the past but the woman I actually love is¡­¡± Liza was smiling victoriously but Elion¡¯s words shattered all her hopes. ¡°The onlydy I¡¯ve always loved and will always love is my wife.¡± said Elion frankly but emphasising every word as if the opportunity he has been looking for to make things clear to Liza hade. This was like a bomb to all those present and Mrs. Madison couldn¡¯t help butpliment. ¡°Lady Elion is indeed the luckiestdy alive.. Who did she save in her past life for God to reward her with the great Elion Copper.?¡± Another female shareholder said with a smile. E smiled victoriously then turned to everyone and greeted them again drawing their attention towards her. Liza, who was engraved in anger and embarrassment, suddenly stood and was about to leave but Raisa pinned her back to her seat and reminded her again. ¡°I will be saying this for the veryst time. No one dare not walk out on my boss. Liza, you have been enjoying the benefits of Lady Elion but not anymore and if you dare shake from this seat again, I will definitely reveal all your little secrets.¡¯ E smiled and continued. ¡°Please let¡¯s keep aside personal matters and discuss the realisation of our project. So, we need about 10 hectares ofnd and Mr/Mrs Madison will be giving us one of theirnds which is located in Town A.¡± The Madisons including Henry and Elion were very shocked at how brave E was.

Walking towards Mr/Mrs Madison, Raisa looked at them eyeball to eyeball and responded. ¡°Mr. Madison sir, I won¡¯t be telling you all the bad things you did but will rather tell you a little secret of mine. Do you want to know the secret?¡± ¡°What type of a question is that? What secret do you have that it¡¯s worth a piece ofnd worth $1. 5 billion? We are ready to hear your secret and you can equally tell us all the bad things you say we did to you. For crying out loud, we don¡¯t even know you.¡± Mrs. Madison burst out angrily and she was so agitated to a point that she almost pped the living daylight out of Raisa. ¡°Have you ever heard that what you don¡¯t know will definitely destroy you?¡± E asked with a cheerful smile. ¡°I have heard that time and again but unfortunately for you, I don¡¯t believe in that statement nor do my family.¡± Mr. Madison said and looked at Elion as though he was asking for help but Elion said nothing and his eyes were fixed on E all along. ¡°Mr/Mrs Madison and their dearest precious spoiled little brat called Maya, long time no see. For all your information, I am your greatest nightmare and the very reason why you all will be going down from grace to grass like King Nebuchadnezzar.¡± Raisa said victoriously and stood at the opposite side of the round table and she was standing directly face to face with Mr/Mrs. Madison. ¡°Look at me very well. Do you two remember this face?¡± ¡°What type of a question is that? It¡¯s obvious you have nothing against my parents but just want to intimidate us so you can take over ournd. Aren¡¯t you supposed to be this Miss¡¯ PA? What has the new project got to do with you?¡± Maya defended her parents like her life depended on that piece ofnd and Raisaughed out and told them it was all a prank and the tense atmosphere suddenly became a joyful one but when they least expected, Raisa¡¯s next words were like a stray bullet aimed at everyone. ¡°It was all a joke Mr/Mrs Madison. We just want to be sure that we are not working with people with dark secrets.¡± Everyone burst outughing except Elion who just smiled in amazement. ¡°Where did you learn how to intimidate people so well ma¡¯am.?¡± Maya asked E as if they were already friends. ¡°I learned it from my husband.¡± replied E coldly. ¡°You are married?¡± Everyone asked in unism except Elion, Henry, Liza and Raisa but E didn¡¯t respond. ¡°That was a big joke, you know. That piece ofnd, we have no ns of selling it, not even to the government because it is located in one of the best locations in Town A¡­¡± Mr. Madison exined but his words were cut short again. ¡°Unfortunately, it wasn¡¯t a joke.¡± Raisa said with a more serious tone and with an indifferent face leaving everyone stunned again but Elion seemed very satisfied with all the drama. ¡°Mr/Mrs Madison, let me tell you my little secret. I am E¡¯s twin Sister.¡± This was like a bomb to everyone in the room. Elion and Henry were so shocked that they looked at E and Raisa but there was no resemnce at all. Cold sweat burst out of Mr/Mrs Madison¡¯s forehead. My Husband鈥檚 Mistress ¡°What do you mean by E¡¯s twin Sister?¡± Mrs. Madison was overwhelmed by fear and couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°E has no twin sister.¡± Maya responded with a very sharp tongue for she felt that her parents had been wronged. ¡°You spoiled little brat. You better shut your mouth when the elders are talking.¡± Replied Raisa with a more serious tone then. ¡­ Tony walked into the house calling out his wife as though she did something horrible. ¡°Amanda!¡± Amanda didn¡¯t respond ¡°Where is this witch in this¡­?¡± ¡°Good evening Sir,¡± Amanda greeted but Tony became more agitated. ¡°Spare me that crap, why is my front door open?¡± She apologised sincerely before going to close the door. ¡°I¡¯m sorry sir, I thought the door was locked¡­¡± ¡°You thought?¡± With burning anger. ¡°Who asked you to think?¡± ¡°Nobody sir¡­¡± Tarrr!

He has been away for more than three months only to show up tonight with frustration and without even giving me money to cook, he says I should cook something different.¡± She cleaned her eyes and left for the kitchen and in two hours, she was done cooking and immediately started setting up the table. Tony walked into the living room questioning her angrily. ¡°And what are you still doing here?¡± ¡°I¡¯m already done sir, I¡¯m just set¡­¡± Tony responded with an icy voice. ¡°Shut up!¡± ¡°Yes sir.¡± Responded Amanda ¡°I said shut up.¡± A knock on the door. Amanda staggered to the door and immediately she opened the door, the Lady at the door gave her a surprised p which pushed her to the floor. She remained on the floor rubbing her cheeks and thought Tony would defend her, but he rather walked up to thedy, pecked her and gave her a warm hug while showering her with so much love and affection. ¡°Baby, what kept you so long?¡± While Amanda was robbing her pped cheek, Berri looked straight into Tony¡¯s eyes and apologised. ¡°I¡¯m sorry my love, I had to take my bath first beforeing.

I took my time and prepared it only for him toe back demanding a different menu and¡­¡± Amanda was brought back to her senses by Tony¡¯s angry screams. He was shouting her name as if he was going to die the next minute. ¡°Amanda! Amanda!¡± Amanda was startled by Tony¡¯s voice and quickly responded while wiping her tears. ¡°sir, I¡¯ming.¡± He pointed to the table and enquired. ¡°What is this?¡± ¡°Pepper soup and yam sir.¡± Amanda responded with so much fear. ¡°Did I tell you I wanted to eat pepper soup and¡­?¡± ¡°Sir, you asked me to cook something different.¡± ¡°So? Where is the food you cooked for me before my arrival?¡± ¡°In the kitch¡­¡± Amanda was still talking but was pushed by Tony towards the kitchen while warning her seriously. ¡°Before I close and open my eyes, rapture the food from the kitchen to this ce.¡± Amanda ran to the kitchen and returned with the food and hurriedly ced it on the table and returned to the kitchen to get thest dish and as soon as she ced it on the table, Tony said wickedly. ¡°Next time, learn to reason like a human being or I will make you reason through the hard way.¡± The next morning, as usual, Amanda woke up at 4:OO AM, tidied the house from the inside to the outside and prepared breakfast before it was 6:OO AM but unfortunately for her, Berri and Tony woke up aste as 9:OO AM when the breakfast was already cold.

Then I think you should have some rest.¡± Amanda clenched her fist after hearing what her husband¡¯s side chick just said and in a low tone but serious manner she responded to Berri and her husband calmly. ¡°Berri, this is my home so don¡¯t tell me when to rest or not to rest.¡± She turned to Tony and continued. ¡°Yesterday, I called to find out what you will eat for dinner upon your arrival. You told me rice and stew which is your favourite.

So, you can still remember? Thank God you know that you were deceived, let me make this clear for you today, I only got married to you because I thought marrying you could keep my father alive.¡± Said Tony mercilessly which shocked Amanda to the core. ¡°what?¡± Amanda was shocked with this revtion. ¡°Yes Amanda, you were my father¡¯s choice not my choice.¡± Tony said with an arrogant tone. ¡°Tony, you told me you loved me, you¡­¡± Amanda said as tears ran down continuously from her eyes. ¡°Love who?

For crying out loud Tony, she is still your wife so you ought to give her the honour¡­¡± Berri was trying to talk but Tony interrupted her angrily. ¡°Shut up.¡± He had never spoken to her in anger before. This made Berri look at Tony in shock. ¡°Are you for real?

If I were you, I would get lost, if not, I would break your bones right now. Raisa threatened with an indifferent expression.

She tried saying something but her words were forced back into her throat as Elion sealed her lips with his lips. He kissed her as if his life depended on it and Henry and Raisaughed at the two of them silently as they left the office so they could give them some space. E was very shy and angry at him for kissing her in front of everyone. She tried pushing him away but he forcefully kissed her again.
