She drove to hotel with a smile on her face, she alighted from the car and hopped as she entered the building with her hand bag. The people that saw her wondered what made her that happy but no one could hear her thoughts and so, they could only mind their own business. Tess walked towards Oswald’s hotel room with an obvious smile and thought to herself,I will make sure he forgets yesterday and make the day wonderful as we walk our wedding room together.She arrived at the door and raised her hand to knock on the door but she stopped and adjusted her hair and cloths and then she cleared her throat and knocked on it. Tess, waited to hear,Come inBut nothing like that came in but silence responded to her. She shook her head and knocked once again and when she didn’t hear anything response again. She started banging on the door. The people in the corridor wondered what her problem was but she wasn’t bothered.Elsie was still in her room and hadn’t left yet, she had heard the first knoc
Elsie looked on her phone waiting for the reply of Oswald, somehow, she felt anxious about this and started biting her finger nails. Her eyes kept darting from the phone and back to the window as she sat on the bed. Suddenly, she heard her ding with a message, in a second, it was in her palm and she was reading it. she saw it was from her bank and she had received the exact amount she had sent to Oswald.She looked at the phone and back at the window again before texting to him,I received this as a gift. And so I don’t think it’s necessary for you compensate me.The message went through all right but no answer came in no matter how long she waited. She sighed and got ready and left for her workplace as well. Elsie was typing on her laptop when she saw an alert on the task bar, she wondered who had sent her a mail which wasn’t from any of the company’s address and yet got through to her.Out of curiosity, she stopped what she was doing and opened the mail. At first sight, she saw it w
A completed hotel was situated in the east side of the city. Oswald was standing in front of the hotel with a look of scrutiny in his eyes. As if remembering something, he looked in the way of Rod who was beside him and said to him,Invite Elsie here, tell her to be here in an hour as we can’t spend too much time here.Rod watched him with confusion on his face, Oswald saw this and explained to him,I want her to be part of this project. I think she has good judgement and can help us in acquiring and making this place great.Rod didn’t understand the reason his boss would explain himself to him, and so he thought,Why do I feel this isn’t the only reason? Why else would he explain himself to me? He wouldn’t do that before no matter how much I misunderstood him.He nodded his head and called Elsie’s office and relayed the message. He told Oswald that he had done as instructed and he nodded and said well done to him, to Rod’s surprise.Elsie didn’t know Oswald would engage her so early
The manager looked at Oswald and glanced at Elsie and then said to them,I thought I could explain with my mouth but it seems I will have to present the statistics to you. Please give me a minute to get it.As he spoke, he only looked in the way of Oswald, Oswald nodded and he passed by Elsie as he walked away, he bumped into her shoulder slightly and he said to himself,If not that I need to keep my job, why would I need to answer to a common woman?They heard him and Oswald held Elsie in place as it was a big bump moving her from her feet. Elsie adjusted her body and said to him in a low voice,I hope you would get rid of this manager, if for nothing, for the hotel. He will cause unnecessary trouble in here.Oswald nodded and agreed in a deep voice,That I promise you. Be rest assured.The contract was signed with the manager and he was happy that he had been able to sign the contract. But then, the expression of Oswald and Elsie were sour and he didn’t know if he should be happy ab
The smile on Oswald’s face was so obvious that Elsie didn’t know where to look out of embarrassment. He cleared his throat when he realized that he looked too happy for been called by his name. she thought that she had to rush to her car but then she remembered that it almost left her on the road because it had run out of gas.Oswald sighed and then told her,How about you let me drop you at your work place?Elsie shook her head quickly but she looked in the way of her car and recalled it had no gas to take her back. Elsie didn’t know what to do, but then she suddenly remembered that she could call Ann to pick her up. And so, she brought out her phone from her purse but her expressionless face turned sour when her phone wouldn’t switch on.Oswald watched her attempt to escape his company and Elsie realized that she had been found out. And so, she hung her head still tapping on her phone, she sighed and thought,Why did I get caught so easily? Nothing is working out for me and I have a
Elsie was taken to the hospital because of her bruised arm. Her hand was being bandaged because of the bruise and the pain she was feeling in it. she looked at Oswald adoringly and said to him,Thank you for everything, I find you myself thanking you a lot these days. I appreciate all that you have done for me.Oswald nodded but his expression showed clearly that he wasn’t happy. He sighed and then said to Elsie,Darren has been arrested by the police and taken into custody.Elsie nodded her head and looked away but then, Oswald asked her,Why did you stand in the way of the bat? You could have dodged it.Elsie smiled and then responded to him,I couldn’t have dodged it else it would be Ann in my place right now. And she could be worse.Oswald was surprise that she would do that to herself in place of someone. But then, he said to her,I think you should never think of harming yourself, no matter the reason. You might have saved her but I think she would be feeling very bad right now.
Elsie felt herself uncomfortable laying on the hospital bed, as she thought about promising Oswald of staying in bed, she also thought about acting disobedient to see Oswald’s reaction. She smiled to herself and called the company to schedule a meeting in the afternoon with the Crofts Group of Companies. Elsie joined them in the meeting and Oswald saw her, he glared at her and looked at her bandaged arm worriedly.But when the rest of the people joined them, he changed his demeanour and started a presentation of the hotel project. Elsie blushed when she saw his muscular arm moving up and down from the board and to his body. She then thought to herself,So attractive, so manly, Oswald, you really know how to charm a lady without doing nothing.When she realized her thoughts, she signed and threw her head back on the headboard. Oswald thought she was tired and so, rushed through the presentation and ended. The workers wondered the reason behind his action and Elsie was included. After t
Elsie woke up with the sun peeking through the darkness in her eyes. Her eyes opened in a tired motion as she felt the pain her arm. Her eyes darted around in the room and realised she wasn’t in her bedroom or anyone’s bedroom but in a hospital room. Elsie then noticed the warm contact on her palm and she looked in the person holding her palm’s way. When she saw who it was, she thought,I have been waking up to see you many times in this short time. Why does this make my heart excited?Oswald saw her looking at him and so, he said to her,You are finally awake; I hope you are doing well now.Elsie nodded herb head but then asked,Why am I here again? The last I remember was speaking to you on phone in my office.Oswald nodded to him and then said to her,And those words we spoke together could our last together if Ann didn’t find you on time. How about you listen to me a little? Okay?Elsie nodded her head and looked away feeling guilty but then she asked,Why are you here this early?
