I ended up not eating that morning. I remembered how painful it had been struggling underwater like that. I stayed in my room for the rest of the day. It wasn't so coincidental that I fell in the pool, there's no way I fell on my own. Somebody pushed me. I had that thought for a long time before deciding not to worry about it again.
Mr Harrison had been coming back home and he had me monitored. He also collected my phone because of the videos that were posted online. I have been popping up a lot online these days and Mr Harrison has been a trending hashtag.
Two weeks and I've been home doing nothing. No phones, no maids to talk to. I felt like I'd been growing a little too old in this house. I barely see Mr. Harrison too, mayhaps because I've been indoors. It was a hard task not to go out.
I got homesick and decided to go to Mr. Harrison and talk a little with him. I stood

EleanorI was still at the restaurant with Mr Harris. I sat back and thought for a while. I was sure I saw my mom, why didn't it occur to me that she was dead? The moment I saw her, it felt as if she only went on a trip and just got back. Mr. Harris finally sipped his Americano." It doesn't make any sense." She was dead, why then did I see her or was I having illusions?" Are you sure it wasn't just your thoughts?" Mr. Harrison asked and gulped down all of his drink." I have never had delusions that I won't know what's real or not, especially when it comes to my Mom. Something is wrong. Don't you think so?"Mr. Harrison let out a heavy sigh, " what if the person just resembled her?"" Then at least, I'd still meet the person when I went back to confirm. It wasn't up to ten minutes and she was gone, together with the lady."

HarrisonIt has never crossed my mind to kiss a girl…. accidentally, especially not the girl I was using as an attraction. The sole motive to teach Eleanor how to be dependent on her own self had gone wrong and turned into something I wasn't anticipating.It was supposed to be a mere accident, but my heart was beating surprisingly fast. It was ridiculous. What was Eleanor thinking, throwing herself at me like that just to hit my stomach with her foot? Although it was an impressive attack, it was rather foolish.I was still on top of her, numb from the shock of having my lips on her. My heart was racing like a time bomb that was about to explode. She stared at me, flustered. I watched her flush which seemed contaminative 'cause I found myself soon in that position.I wasn't ready to move away from the awkward situation, I wanted to kiss her more than just lips touching each other but I had no guts to do so." Master, you have a-" a maid came in. The moment we heard the voice of the mai

JessI have been scouting at my friend's place since the day we went for the night party. I was scared of going home to Mom without Eleanor. I wasn't ready to face her wrath. Aside from the fact that she was my Mom, I knew what she was capable of doing even to her own children.When I saw Van on the day of the party in school, we all saw Mr. Tolstoy. I was so happy that day, he was my idol. I waited so long to meet him. Usually, I only saw him on TV. He was more handsome in real life. That three weeks ago when I saw him, it was a pity that that day was the day we got our hands on Eleanor.Had we not brought Eleanor outside for a public embarrassment, Mr. Tolstoy wouldn't have interfered. He was so concerned about Eleanor that he carried her to his office. There was no way he knew her before then, I concluded he was just naturally caring for girls that were treated badly, which led to my plan of disguising myself like an Injured lady so the next time he comes to school he can take care

EleanorI felt so relieved after getting my phone from Mr Harrison. The first call was predictable, I knew Emil had been trying my number almost every minute. I didn't answer the call because I needed to settle down from my excitement. The moment Mr. Harrison left, I called Emil." What the fuck!!! That the hell happened to you. Where have you been? I thought you died. Do you have any idea how worried I am? I couldn't find you, you didn't come to school. The last time I saw you or heard from you was at the party and nothing was wrong with you. I saw the video, that Jess of a witch, I knew she was up to something after showing up uninvited.." Emil sounded as if he was ranting." Hey. Calm down. I'm fine." I said calmly. I wasn't calm though, I had thousands of words that I wanted to tell him too. The words were hanging in my throat as I spoke. I needed to see Emil. I needed to hug him. Having a best friend like Emil was the only thing that got me going." Eleanor! Okay okay, I'll calm

EleanorIt's been four days since Mr Harrison spoke to me. Mr. Harrison has been frowning since he blurted out his mind to me. I honestly wasn't expecting it or looking forward to it.I was still confused, my mind wasn't settled. We were already getting close to being on good terms but what he told me the other day was out of the question.It sounded like he had been waiting for an opportunity for him to tell me. The next day, I tried approaching him but he kept on putting on his avoidance amour. It was becoming too much that I had to sit and think about it.In truth, I have been reaching out of the contract. I even almost forgot it was a contract marriage. We were getting too close. I focused my mind on standing my ground and getting focused.My life was getting too suffocating. A maid was supposed to reach the market so I seized the opportunity to go by myself. She didn't want to let me but eventually, she had to give in. The guards wanted to drive me but I really wanted to walk it

August.Leanor looked pale when I told her I was a friend of Harry. Perhaps she ran away from home and became a servant here. But the Eleanor I know would never settle for something like that. So what business did she have there?I glanced at her as I drove off. Dash it all, Eleanor was far prettier than I remembered. It was fascinating. When she came and caught me with Jess that day, her cheeks were sallow, and her eyes still gazed with something like shock back then. Probably the Maltreatment and the cheating which was surely difficult. But still, that creature bore no resemblance to the rosy-cheeked, hazel-eyed sylph who sat beside me as if…well, as if I was a man and she a woman.Frequently, I spied on her as she set her focus on the other side of the window. Even in a long, big gown, she was more graceful and attractive than most of the women I've met in my life.She wouldn't look at me, even though I was sure she knew I was looking at her. She always did.I drove into the gates

Harrison.It was a pleasure to meet August again, but at the same time unpleasant. Eleanor's ex? Why'd I never asked of her ex in the first place? Their old band might reunite and affect my plans for Eleanor. Practically, I should be the least concerned about whatever Eleanor does.I tried keeping a smile while I chatted with August. Although he wanted to see Eleanor once more, I just couldn't allow it. Augustine left a few hours later.Eleanor was in the kitchen when August left. Judging from the delicious smell emanating from the oven, she was baking bread. I stood up and sat on the long oak table where the servants dined every night. I peeped at her and found her stretching her hands to the hearth's blaze. She was wet and drenched when she entered the house, which made me worry that she had caught a cold.I scoffed to grab her attention. " Do you mind telling me the story?" I asked her. She didn't give me attention, not even the slightest glance. She looked provoked but she wasn't

EleanorI was going to grab my towel in my room after having a hot bath, but I decided to fill myself with scented oil first. The scent trailed my mind off from the thought of having a cold and fake husband to having a nice time with him in bed. I smiled out of the bathroom with my naked body filled with oil to meet a very unexpected shock. I was stiff as I saw Mr. Harrison staring at me a few inches from my table. The shock in his eyes couldn’t beat mine. “ Mr. Harrison- “ I couldn’t speak again as I tried to cover my body with my hands which was a very stupid thing to do in that position. I wasn’t sure what Mr Harrison was thinking but I was waiting for him to turn away or something.As if he heard my thought, he turned his back and faced the other side. I am sure he saw me flush, although I wasn't sure if it was from embarrassment or admiration. I quickly took a towel and wrapped it over my body.He scoffed, a way of asking if I was done with whatever I was doing. “ Mr Harrison.

The sound of "Here comes the bride" echoed through the church of St Paul. A lot of people were seated in the church, waiting for the bride to come around. Eleanor was in the changing room, fighting her corset with Lina."Damn, this is tight. I could have chosen a much better dress. All in the name of fashion. What if I fail to breathe and I faint in front of my husband? Ish.""If you fail to breathe, I will pour you water. Just in case.""Emill," Lina warned."What? Have you forgotten what she did to me on our wedding day? She hid my tie and made me use a bow tie.""And it was perfect but you don't trust your best friend. That is what is wrong with you. Anyway, if you pour me water, you would owe me 5 million dollars. I would collect it from you. I know you know that.""Eleanor, you still want to bully me on your wedding day? Jeez. People change, why didn't you?" Someone knocked on the door and Emil went to pick it up. "You're not supposed to see your bride before the wedding. They s

Writer's POVHarrison went back to his hotel and tried to think about what he could do for Eleanor. It was a hard task. He knew Eleanor wouldn't just agree to see him just like that. There was nothing he could think of buying that would be catchy to her.He went to bed, hoping the next day would be very good.*** Eleanor walked back and forth to the room. "Again, who invited Harrison? This isn't a joke. Why would one of you invite Harrison without my permission? Why?"Her mother sat on a chair, knitting stockings. "As much as I hate the boy, he still looks handsome. Did you ask him the type of cream he was using?""Mother, this is not funny. Do you know how I felt when I saw him? I was going to lose my mind. Why would you do such things behind my back?"No one was answering her. She sat in the chair, frustratingly shaking her leg. "Well, I think he's a changed person. I heard he built a house for orphans on the streets. It is also said that he is a good man and he let out all his slav

Writer's POVHe held the child's hands and looked around as she led him to a hallway. "Magny? Where are you? Come out now. We have a visitor, he says he bears annoying Harry's name."Harrison laughed. The child was something. He found the plastic horse on the ground. He bent down and showed her the toy. Tada" "Yay! You found Magny." She hugged him. That was when Harrison perceived it. "Thank you, Uncle Harrison. I'll see you later, okay?" She said and ran off. He stood still. He could never mistake it. She smelled exactly like Eleanor. Exactly like Eleanor, he was sure of it. Come to think of it, her hair was also gray and her eyes belonged to Eleanor. If he wasn't hallucinating, then he was running mad. He closed his eyes and turned around. "I need to get them now. Mia, nice, go find Harry. Look for him, I didn't say you should hide and seek…" he heard the voice and the clacking sounds of shoes coming his way. He quickly hid in a corner.The fact that he was there wasn't the probl

Writer's POV*Five years later*"Brother, look at this model. She also sent you a message and you still haven't replied. Why? Do you want to live like this forever? This isn't some Disney movie. I am married and you are not. People are talking," Nikki protested to her brother who was packing his bags. He wasn't paying attention to Nikki and he wasn't interested in doing so. "Brothers I am talking to you, do not ignore me.""Nikki. People are different. Some people love marriages…some don't. I don't. I need to get to the office. I am trying to lead by example."Nikki pursed her lips. "Is this because of Eleanor? Are you still punishing yourself for that? You know you deserve it but this is enough. It's been five years and you are not getting any younger. You need to find someone to get married to and have kids. Who would take care of your company when you are gone?"Harrison was dressed and tired of Nikki. He would do anything to drive her out of his house but he didn't want to push h

Writer's POVHarrison walked around the house, screaming and throwing things apart. How would he explain it to her? She wouldn't even want to hear him out. He was done. He had to accept the fact that he would never have her again. There was no magic for him to perform.*Two hours earlier*Harrison was mild and sad, wondering and planning how he was going to meet Eleanor and get the shit out of her. Someone knocked on his door. The guards opened. For a moment he thought it was going to be Eleanor but instead, it was her friend, Candy.He knew Candy was Eleanor's friend so he thought it would be easy if he sent Candy to Eleanor so that Eleanor would at least mind meeting him."Good morning Mr. Tolstoy. How are you?" Of course, he wasn't fine. All he wanted at the moment was to see Eleanor. "I am fine," he lied. "Eleanor isn't here at the moment and Jay already took his leave. I thought he told you all that?""Oh, dear. I wasn't sure about what he was telling me on the phone and why Elea

Her destination was a place she didn't want to visit but Emil just reminded her how brutally she was of that place. She entered Tolstoy's apartment. The guards didn't stop her. Every clicking sound of her shoes emitted danger. She wasn't smiling. She went in and went straight to the stables. She didn't care if Harrison was home or not. The moment she saw Magny, the horse neighed happily. I hadn't seen her for a long time. She smiled. At least something was still capable of making her smile. She related the horse. She was taking him home. She found the men that used to be there. They already knew her face so they let her be. Perhaps they had no idea Hendrix was in prison. She caressed the horse and calmed it down. It must have been so lonely staying there alone. There was no Hendrix to take care of him so she was goi

Writer's POV"Mother, you know you don't necessarily need to give Eleanor the princess treatment. You have no idea what she has done to me whenever I was with her in my house. Mother, I have PTSD. She is a scary person. Too scary," Emil grumbled and reported.He was done with his part of the chore and he wanted to sleep like Eleanor. He was just trying to be closer to Eleanor's mother. He understood why Eleanor had to take a break."You are trouble, Emil. If I were Eleanor, I would throw you something hard in the face. you would wonder why I did that to you. Do you want to sleep too or do you just want to disturb me?"Mother was done with her cleaning too, it looked like the whole house was back to being brand new. He followed Mother back to the sitting room. He just wanted to have some time with her. Emil didn't lie about the way she had been approaching and referring to him. When they were kids, she used to be a mother to both of them. She was strict and equally sweet. She would ca

She regretted taking the case to court. She should have stayed and arrested Mary. She should have just found an alternative rather than being in so much pain to herself.With the things she just went through, she knew it would take her a very long time to love and be loved. She trusted Harrison. She believed almost everything he said, just to figure out he was the reason why she was going through everything she was going through and he was okay with it. He didn't say a word about knowing who she was but he did all along. She watched as Mary was taken away alongside her children. There was no difference in her facial expression. As for Hendrix, he walked majestically past. She trusted him too much too.She thought she had seen a friend but it backfired on her. Eventually, she was left with Emil, the only one who stayed
