Eleanor’s Point of View
Emelia was back in town? She ran away when the company was going downside and now she is back? I can’t believe that mum would even think for a minute to welcome her back in this house that she ran away from.
“So I have been trying to talk to Emma Anderson and we finally managed to set up a date for you and Liam, what do you think?” Mum questioned me as I rolled my eyes looking at her.
“Liam Anderson? Mum can you listen to yourself? I am definitely not meeting with him” I grabbed my bags and phone from the counter along the hallway.
“Eleanor we both know what will happen if you don’t go through with this> you can’t just shun away from your responsibilities” Mum affirmed as I looked at her shrugging my shoulders.
“I am not your only daughter. Pretty sure your other daughter can do it” I said referring to Emelia. Mum scoffed shaking her head.
“You will not act like that. We both Know Emelia will never be an option.” She said through gritted teeth.
“I need to go” I said when I saw Emelia approaching us form the staircase.
“Eleanor!’ Mum shouted after me as I walked away without turning around. I wasn’t going to talk to her right now.
I got out of the house and got in my car before driving away. Liam Anderson? Couldn’t she think of someone else than Liam and his gay scandals? She wanted me to get married to someone everyone is saying is gay so that the company can get an investor? Hell no!
I arrived at the office and pulled over in the parking lot, Amy came rushing towards me with a cup of coffee.
“Yes. How are you? You don’t look too good. Sure you doing want to take the day off? She asked me as I turned to her stooping in my tracks
‘You do realize that we have a fashion show in less than three weeks? I can’t be slacking” I bawled as she raised her eyebrows
“Everything okay Hun? You look like you just saw a ghost” She questioned as I swallowed hard turning to her.
“Emelia is back in town and mum insists that we seal up a deal with Liam Anderson” I explained to her while walking into the building. “Oh wow? Really? Are you serious? Emelia is back?” She inquire as I turned to her, she was smirking.
“I am not getting married to that man.” I declared getting off my floor. We walked into my office and I sat down thinking about what mum was saying.
There was no way I would get married to a gay man.
I opened my laptop and started working through reports, I was only nineteen years when dad passed away and mum decided she wanted to be running thing in the background.
Emelia was always given what she wanted while on the other hand I have to work my ass off to get what I want. Now she’s back in town?
My phone ran and I smiled vividly at myself before fixing my hair. Arthur was video calling me and I needed to make sure that I look presentable
“Hey babe?” I picked up the phone looking at the screen as Arthur smiled at me.
“Good Morning Beautiful, how was your night?” He said to me as I positioned my phone nicely.
“Well, worked late, only got home this morning. Just changed and headed back in” I conversed as he smiled vividly at me.
“Didn’t you rest a bit? You know I always say stress isn’t good for you right?” He questioned as I nodded my head.
“I know. I will age first… blah...blah” I Joked as he chuckled softly.
“Are you coming over tonight? I miss you” he said to me as I pursed my lips together. I missed him too but had a lot of catching up to do.
“I promise you will have the best time” He winked as I smiled broadly.
“I will also make you the perfect meal.” He added on trying to bribe me as I nodded my head. “I will pass through after work, is that fine?” I questioned him as he nodded his head.
“Yes. I will pass through after work” I smiled at him as he gave me an affirmative nod while beaming. ‘I need to get back to work. See you later?” I asked him as he smiled nodding his head.
“Love you” I confessed as he kissed the screen. “I love you too and can’t wait” he said cutting the call. I sighed heavily as I looked at the screen, mum would flip if she knew that I was dating a chef who had nothing to his name.
I spent the entire day in meetings and having to go through reports before I headed out to the venue the fashion show as taking place. I wanted everything perfect for that night.
My phone vibrated and I looked at the time, it was already 8 pm. “Hey Babe?” I picked up moving aside so that Amy won’t hear that I am talking to Arthur.
“Still at the office?” He asked me.
“Yes. But will be leaving soon” I assured him and he kept quiet briefly. “I am coming, don’t worry” I whispered to him.
“Okay. I will wait for you then.” He responded not sounding convinced that I would go to see him. “See you soon” I said and he cut the call.
“What do you think? Are you thinking what I am thinking?” Amy questioned after I joined them looking at the stage lighting/
“It looks like what I envisioned so no comments for now” I replied as she smiled vividly nodding her head.
‘I have to go now. Please could you send me the rest of the reports and I will look at them later?” I questioned her as she nodded her.
“Great! I will see you tomorrow” I said to her and walked away from the place. I didn’t want to disappoint Arthur yet again.
I got in the car and started driving, When I pulled over in front of the apartment., I set my alarm for 12am so that when it’s that time I can leave and head home.
I got out of the car with my bag and walked inside, I got in the elevator and pressed his floor level. IU stood with my head down before the doors dinged and I walked out heading to his apartment.
I rang the doorbell and waited for him to open the door for me. After some minutes the door opened and there he was, my Greek god. His lips curved up into a smile, his round brown orbs brightening up when he saw me, mu gaze lingering on his lips as I smiled at myself.
“Hey Strange?” He greeted me with a grin on his face. I just walked in and mashed my lips against his, as if trying to flatten and destroy his mouth.
I hungrily pushed him back, my mouth open, tongue pushing past his clenched teeth to the moist space within. He pushed the door shutting it as he brought his hand around my waist and neck. Kissing me like it was a battle of who is a good kisser.
He pulled my hair back kissing my neck The bristles of his beard scratched against my soft cheeks as I gripped his head firmly, as if to keep him from escaping.
He unbuttoned my shirt and threw it aside as I pulled off his t-shirt. He unzipped my office pants and I stepped out of them as we walked to the living room.
He unhooked my bra revealing my breasts, the cold breeze hit my nipples which were now firm. He brought his mouth to my nipples sucking on them like his life deepened on them.
His hand went to my pant, pushing it aside as she started to gently rub my clit. ‘Ah” I moaned softly as h spread my legs wide, “| I want you” I whisper in his eyes but he ignores me fingering me as I moan. / I missed him so much.
He goes on kissing me more as I moan, “Babe, I want you… Please fuck me” I moan pleading for him to just blow my brains out.
My hands go down to his joggers as I start rubbing his hard cock I pulled it out as he led me down on the floor, “Please…” I moaned softly as he pushed his cock inside me.
He buried his head in my neck as he fucked me so hard, before I knew it we were both gasping for air after an hour of amazing sex. “That was…” He wanted to say.
“Wild...” I added on as he chuckled softly pulling m closer to him as he wrapped his arms around me. “I missed you so much” He said to me as I held on tight to him.
“I missed you too” I whispered to him as he held on tighter to me, we lay down there as I stared at the ceiling thinking of the conversations I had with mum earlier today.
“What’s wrong?” He questioned me as I sighed heavily shaking my head. “Come on. I know something is wrong and you are not telling me anything” He insisted as I sighed heavily unwrapping myself from his arms. As I sat up.
“Mum arranged a meeting for me and Liam Anderson” I started.
“Okay”
“She wants us to get married in exchange that he invests in the company” added on as he sat up as well. “Whoa, Are you serious right now>? What would she… Please tell me you are not actually considering marrying him?” He mumbled as I sighed heavily.
“I don’t know what to do, I mean I want the company to do better but we just don’t have the finances anymore” I complained to him confused on what to do.
“Sometimes I just feel like I can shut out everything you know?” I said to him as he kept quiet briefly like he was thinking.
“Come with me to Washington” He suggested as I scoffed looking at him, I chuckled softly but he was serious.
“You are serious aren’t you?” I asked him as he swallowed hard. “ I may not be the rich Heir but I promise I will treat you like a queen, I will make sure that you won’t have to worry about anything” he said to me holding my hands as I sighed heavily. He really didn’t think that I would abandon everything for him and leave my family stranded?
“We will have our own life without worrying about what to do to impress your mom and get married to a man like Liam. Everyone knows that man is a criminal and gay” he added as I pursed my lips tighter. There was no way that I could go ahead and do something like this, it would kill my mom.
“Just think about it” he whispered in my ears kissing my cheek before he stood up walking to the kitchen. I sighed heavily looking at him walk away.
Emelia’s Point of View.A week laterAfter mom asked me to stay a month, I decided I would take time to find some clients here as well/.“Good Morning Maria” I said I walked out, I had a meeting with Mali’s Estates hoping I could find some business there.“Yes. How are you? Did you enjoy your night?” She asked me as I nodded my head faking a smile, she stood back looking at me.‘Are you going out?’ She questioned as I nodded my head.‘Yes, I want to visit Lara before heading Downtown” she said looking at my outfit briefly.‘Okay, But at least have some food before you head out” she said as I nodded my head making my way out of the room.I was about to leave then realized I didn’t have enough money to be using public transport around here. “Maria, is my car still here?” I asked her before she could disappear from the room.‘Your car is still in the car port, I had asked Jackson to look at it a few days before you came. Keys on the hangar “I walked out and grabbed the keys before wal
Emelia’s Point of View.“Please Mia. Your mother needs you just for tomorrow. I promise I will make sure that you don’t get to meet him again. I will get the first flight to look for Eleanor” she pleaded with me, it was the first time I saw my mother being vulnerable like this.I have always known my mother to be an iron lady who doesn’t break down or back out of a fight. I swallowed hard as I shook my head.“I am sorry mu. I don’t think I can do this” I maintained as she looked away from me reluctantly nodding her head.“I love you and I know what this company means to you but I can’t step into someone’s shoes and take over her life. That’s being a fraud” I said to her as she swallowed looking away from me.There was an awkward silence as I stood near her desk waiting for her to say something to me. She was quiet staring out the window like she was helpless and didn’t know what to do.“I am going to go>” I gestured with my hand but she didn’t say anything, I walk out of the room and
Liam’s Point of View “Hey You?” Emma casually said after she got in, my office. “Hey? Manage to set up the meeting with Eleanor?” I questioned her as she nodded her head. “Yes. Done it and you will meet with her this Saturday> I will forward all the details to you” She said as I nodded my head. “Did you manage to find out what kind of person she is?” She asked me as I nodded my head. “Managed to look up a few things about her. Not really the kind of woman I would to be with but can’t change my mind can me?” I said to her monotone as she sighed heavily. “I am sure she is not that bad. I am sure you will like her” She assured me as she stood up from where she was sitting. “Of course” I smirked as she rolled her eyes walking out of the room. I sighed thinking about what I would do to get ready for the meet. Many women don’t want to get married to me because of the rumors surrounding the company and particularly me But it seems to me the Ramirez’s are desperate which is why Emma
Emelia’s Point of View. “Ms. Ramirez, As much as I would love to work with you, I don’t think you have man references I can actually work with.” He said to me as I swallowed hard, just minutes ago he was ready to talk to Eleanor but had no interest with working with me? “Mr. Rodriguez… I can assure you that you won’t be…” I try to convince him but he just checked his watch looking at me. “I am sorry. But I am going to be late for a meeting” He said to me as I nodded my head smiling at myself. “Thank you for your time” I grabbed my things and walked out of the office, How could he waste my time like that? Should I have pretend to be someone else?After leaving the office I decided to go back home, my day was ruined. I needed to sort out my thoughts then go to visit Valerie. I pulled over in the yard making my way inside the house, I stopped in my tracks looking at mum as she stared at the bottle o0f whiskey. When did she start drinking g again? “Mum?” I called out to her as I
Emelia’s Point of View. I turned to Valerie then Liam Anderson who seemed to be in shock when he saw me. I am not a fake person and I was not going to pretend to be someone I am not. That was not the type of life I wanted to live. “I am sorry Val,” I said to her as I held on to my bag heading for the exit. I wanted to run away as fast as my legs could take me but these heels were not helping me at all. “Eleanor!” I heard someone shout my name from behind as I made my way through the crowd. I didn’t want to stop but these drunk people were not helping me at all. I finally managed to make my way out and immediately I was outside I took a breather hoping Liam wasn’t there following me anymore. I squatted on the floor as I buried my face in my hands. I was suddenly feeling hot from all the running. “Shit Mia, what the hell was that?” I heard Val’s voice behind me, she was fuming. I stood up from the ground shaking my head as I looked at her. ‘I can’t do it, Val. I am not my sister
Emelia's Point of View“Good morning” my mother happily said as I pulled over the covers to cover my head. I didn’t have the energy to do this right now.“Emelia. Wake up” she tried to wake me up as I groaned closing my eyes very tight.“Mum, please let me sleep. A few more minutes” I said with a perpetually tired voice to her so that I could at least rest for a few more hours.‘Emelia it’s already 11 am. What time did you sleep?” She asked me as I realized that I am meant to be awake.“Mum! Why didn’t anyone wake me up” I exclaimed as I threw off the covers> Mum moved away from the bed as I quickly rushed to the bathroom to check on my face.“What time is it exactly?” I questioned her“11:13” “What’s wrong?” Mum asked me as I went around the room rushing.“I have a meeting in fifteen minutes' time mum and I will be doing a presentation” I panicked as I brushed my teeth. After I finished, I brushed my hair and then went to get a hair band to tie my hair behind.“Do you want me to
Emelia’s Point of view I stood in front of the restaurant as I sighed heavily afraid of taking a step and getting inside. I looked in the reflective mirror looking at my reflection. I was not Emelia this evening but rather my sister Eleanor. I had longer collarbone wavy brown hair with the highlights, I had done a subtle smokey eye make-up on that I haven’t down in months. I wore a Split V-neck Short Sleeve Midi Length Sheath Dress and I settled for black pumps and a clutch. I walked into the restaurant and walked to the reception area as I looked around wondering where Liam Anderson might be sitting. “Good Evening Ma’am” A gentleman approached me before I could get to the reception. “Good evening” “Your Table is this way” He gestured for me to the right side of the restaurant. The place had an explicitly grand ambiance The restaurant is roomy and dark with stained oak trim and finely carved wooden wrap-around bar to one side The seating on the other side is spaced so that
Emelia’s Point of viewAfter I received the call form mum, I drove as fast as I could to the house. I had just finished doing what she wanted me to do now it was time for me to move on with my life.I arrived home and barged in the house looking for mum. I really hoped she wasn’t drinking. “Mum?” I shouted looking for her as I turned on the light.“”Mum?” I shouted as I went to the bar but she wasn’t there. I looked in the kitchen before heading to her room.“MUM!” I knocked before opening the door and letting myself in, I found she was on the bed sobbing silently.“Mum? What happened?” I questioned her as I sat down on the bed and she sniffed back as she shook her head.“Your sister. She… She...” She stuttered before breaking down again as I swallowed hard wondering what really happened.“I wanted to cancel the fashion show when I spoke to the one organizer it. She said that there’s no refund if we decide to go ahead with cancelling everything” Mum said to me as I nodded my h
