Wilson Corp ....

9:45am ...

"Alright, let's not waste too much of our time , we're just gonna get started with the presentation," Arthur said.

"Hazel, over to you!" He said gesturing towards her, her heart began to beat even faster, the presentation in her hand was more like an inferior compared to what Wilson Corp stood for.

She cleared her throat deeply, as she turned to look at Eleanor, whom she was expecting to do something, Eleanor just stared at her with a small smirk at the corner of her lips as she watched her fidget and shake.

Eleanor smiled in her head as she stared at her, she deserved to go through that mini panic attack after what she made her go through yesterday.

"Are you sure you're okay?!" Mr Henry the prospective buyer asked, seeing as she was sweating heavily and didn't seem to get a hang of herself.

Arthur's eyes followed her every move as she stood up and walked up to the projector, she placed her laptop on the table and with shaky hands began to connect the lapto

    The door to Eleanor's office opened with a small creak, Eleanor slowly looked up at it and it was Hazel.She rolled her eyes knowingly and slowly exhaled."Come in Hazel!" She murmured"Eleanor, I'm sorry" Hazel whispered immediately she walked in and slammed the door shut."It's fine, " Eleanor replied."No it's not, I spoke to you in a way that I shouldn't""I let you do all the work alone overnight, I shouldn't have done that " she murmured fiddling her fingers, she couldn't bring herself to look at Eleanor in the eye."I'm sorry for everything, for ever making you look incompetent in front on Sir Arthur,""Looking back now I feel stupid for all I did,""It's actually fine, if I had anything against you, I wouldn't have done what I did" she replied."Thank you so much," Hazel whispered."And one more thing, thank you for standing up for me earlier but I think I'd like to tender my resignation letter""This is not me being ungrateful but I don't think this space is still convinent f

    Wilson Corp ...."You have to work on these and submit them tomorrow morning unfailingly!" Arthur said to Eleanor immediately she walked into the office, his face was knotted in a tight frown, and he wasn't even giving her any opportunity to refuse his order at all ."It's a whole estate property and that's the next property we're looking to lease,""We don't on selling out anytime soon, so work on that!" He said."Arthur?!""To work on this and submit tommorow morning is another overnight for me!" She whispered."Exactly! That's the point!""I'm aware, that's why I'm giving it to you!" He replied "But that's not fair, I'm beginning to do more than an assistant's work,""I'm not the one who fired two staff!" She grumbled, just as he was about to reply an unknown feeling hit him and he released a loud sneeze three consecutive time.He slowly wiped his eyes with the back of his hands and sighed deeply, he shut his eyes tightly, this wasn't the time to develop a fever."Look Eleanor, do

Eleanor said as she packed up her bags."It's nothing, anything for you!" He replied, she smiled as she walked towards the small mirror by the passage and packed her hair up in a tight ponytail."That's why I love you best!" She replied."We should get going now, if I don't want to be prey to an hungry lion!" She said and Tyler smiled."Just take it easy Eleanor,""I'll keep that in mind, " she replied with a small laugh as she picked up her bag."Won't you guys stay for breakfast?!"

    She gently helped him up, she supported his weakened frame, guiding him towards his room. "What are you doing Eleanor,""I can take care of myself!" He muttered drowsily."Shush, can you stop being stubborn!""I'd have a lot of things happen to you but definitely not death, even though you almost killed me one certain time!" She said and he just went mute.He had absolutely no strength to even stand on his own, talk more argue with her.The hallway revealed glimpses of his personal life, adorned with framed photographs capturing moments of joy, alongside musical instruments scattered in a harmonious disarray. As they reached his room, she gently stretched forward and pushed the door open.Almost zapped out of her own energy carrying him all the way, she quickly helped him sit on the bed , with his back against the wall.He heaved a sigh of relief and slowly sat on the bed beside him.With tender care, she carefully helped him pull off his shirt, she quickly walked inside his bathroom

    A little more than a few moments later ...After waiting for some minutes surfing through the internet on her phone Eleanor got bored, she released a deep sigh, her gaze suddenly caught a piano at one corner in the living room.She stood up immediately and headed there,"Quite rusty but let's see what I've got," she murmured as she gently uncovered it.She released a deep exhale as she placed her hands on it, she immediately began to play a song she usually hum, she hums this song when she's happy, when she's sad, nervous, angry, any sort of emotion.She really couldn't place where she learnt or heard the tune but she knew it was very familiar, and sometimes she could hear it in her dreams.Her spirit, soul and body became so invested in the song as she added energy to the piano she was playing, "What height of love, what depth of peace, when fears are still, when striving cease," Arthur murmured the lyrics of the song as he slowly walked towards her , she turned to look at him but s

    Later that day,2:00pm ......Wilson Corp ...."Is Arthur in?!" Eleanor asked Lydia immediately she walked into the corporation."Yes," she murmured, Eleanor's heart dropped."Oh wow! Did he ask of me?! was he angry when he asked?!" She asked all in one breath."He did actually, but I really can't tell if he was angry or not " Lydia replied "Did you get my message yesterday, were you able to get the documents across?!" "Oh yes I did," she said and Eleanor sighed deeply in relief, "That's a relief , thank you so much Lydia, you've helped me a lot I can't count," she said and Lydia nodded with a small smile."It's nothing, you deserve all the support you can get" she replied and Eleanor smiled."I'm grateful,""I should go up and see Arthur, I probably won't get a pay till the end of the year!" She added with a small nervous laughter."It can't be that bad," Lydia encouraged."I hope so" she replied as she took the stairs and began to walk up to Arthur's office.The door to Arthur's o

He asked as he walked into the room from the veranda, with an empty tea cup in his hand."I don't know! Maybe because it's all over the slum Exhibition social media handle!" She replied and he carefully set the tea cup down on a turnable at a corner in the room."You're a major Sponsor Marshall, you can't tell me you had no idea she was invited!" She added angrily."Can you please calm down Penelope, I don't get why your voice is this high like we had an argument before!""Well if it concerns Matilda then it's a fight!" She growled."Because I won't give the both of you that chance!""Chance to do what?!"

    Hours later ...."I thought Isabella said she'll be here by two?!" Eleanor asked as she looked down at her wrist watch, looking away from his laptop.Since they weren't doing anything tangible, they could atleast go through office work, because why not?!"It's what she said!" Arthur replied for the umpteenth time."I'm sorry about your dad!" Arthur finally said and she turned to look at him, they were seating close to each other on a two seater.She slowly looked up at him, caught unawares at what he had just said."And I'm sorry if I was in any way really insensitive at that time," he said and she nodded slowly, still speechless on the reply to give."Thank you Arthur," she whispered."I don't even know what to say," she added in a murmur."You don't have to say anything," he replied in a whisper as he leaned in closer to her and slowly reached for her lips with his.Their lips met in a soft, tentative kiss, their emotions swirling in a delicate dance of uncertainty and newfound unde

  • CONNECTION UNSEEN: A Love Story   Forever

    Author’s POVOne year Later. Isabella stepped out of her room, her heart heavy with thoughts of her mother, today makes it one year since she was sentenced to life imprisonment. After everything that happened they had moved to a small apartment and led a much more quiet life. Thankfully she was already done with high school. Her, her boyfriend and bestfriend gained admission into the same school and will be leaving in a few days. She looked forward to it enthusiastically.She paused briefly in the hallway when she saw her father, Marshall, sitting on the couch with Matilda beside him. They looked so comfortable together, Matilda’s hand resting lightly on his arm, and the sight made Isabella’s stomach churn. The fact that Matilda lived in her own mansion did not stop their house from being her second home and she was there almost everytime. She knew she should be used to it by now—her father had moved on. But every time she saw Matilda in their home, it felt like a slap to her face.

    Arthur. Meanwhile.The second we left the restaurant, my world felt like it had cracked open. My chest tightened with every breath, and the weight of the man’s words echoed endlessly in my mind. "My son."It didn’t make sense. None of it did. How could the man standing before me be my father? How could my mother have kept this from me? Lied to me every day of my life. From the look of things my dad was equally as shocked, she played the both of us.Eleanor squeezed my hand gently as we walked aimlessly, far away from the restaurant. I could tell she wanted to say something comforting, but what could anyone say to fix this mess? I didn’t want to hear the truth. Not from anybody."Arthur... do you want to talk about it?" Eleanor's voice was soft, like she was afraid I'd shatter if she pressed too hard. I shook my head. "Not now." We found a park bench and sat down. The late afternoon heat didn’t help; my shirt clung to me, soaked with sweat from everything that had just happened

    Few hours Later.Eleanor.“We’re not going to the cafeteria?!” I asked as we walked into the elevator and he pressed on the ground floor, he slowly turned to me and shook his head slowly.“Ofcourse not,”“I’m treating my baby, to the best cheese in town,” he said to me, my face lit up in excitement immediately.“Ouuuuu, as tasty as Paris Comte?!” I asked snuggling closer to him, he turned to look at me and chuckled lightly. “I can’t give you my word on that though,” he said and we shared a laugh, ofcourse American cheese can beat Paris cheese, no matter who makes it. “Also my Dad wanted to meet with us, he said he has something to say,” he added and I nodded slowly with a small oh.“Yeah speaking about your dad, have you seen the accusations going around?! About the company and your mom?!” I said bringing out my phone to show it to him.“No I haven’t, and I really don’t care. I’m used to the rumors. They are not true anyway.” He said, I paused and slowly slipped the phone back in my

    Eleanor. Next day. 6:30amMy eyes slowly fluttered open, it took me a while to adjust but immediately I did my gaze fell upon a pair of brown eyes staring down at me. My lips stretched into a shy smile and I slowly raised my hands to cover my face.“How long have you been staring?!” I asked in a mutter as I gently pushed myself up to sit on the bed, “Long enough to know you look extremely cute in your sleep,” he murmured in reply scooting closer to me, I felt literal butterflies in my stomach at his words, he gently raised his hands to my face and tucked my scattered hair carefully behind my ear,“Good Morning Sunshine,” he whispered and placed a small kiss on my forehead.“Good Morning Love,” I murmured in reply with a sweet smile.“Today would definitely be a beautiful day for me, I got to see your face immediately I woke up,” he said, I chuckled lightly as I gently pulled the duvet away from my body and got up.“Stop teasing me Arthur, we have work today let’s get ready,” I mutt

    Meanwhile , 6:30pm Eleanor. “Alright then, I’ll take my leave now,” Lydia said to me, I flashed her a small smile and nodded slowly. “And please do the needful,” she whispered, I took my lips into my mouth and nodded slowly.“I’ll try,” I muttered in reply, she passed me one last tight lipped smile before walking out of my office. I exhaled deeply and reclined in my chair. It’s been the three days and Arthur hadn’t spoken to me in these three days, we walked past each other this morning at the entrance and he barely acknowledged my greeting, he seemed to be giving me space, a whole lot of space. He had been doing everything to avoid working together with me and it felt really obvious. I exhaled deeply again, I’ve been doing that a lot recently, I tidied up my work, picked up my bag and headed out. I walked past Arthur’s office, on a second thought I paused and walked back, I placed a small knock on the door before pushing it open and walking in. Immediately he heard my footstep

    Three days later … Matilda.“I’ve spoken to Louis,” Camilla began, breaking the silence. We were currently sitting with Carson in his office, it’s been three days after our first discussion and now, based on more developments we have come to restrategize. “He did a thorough job. We have Fred’s financial records, including the transfers to that shell company tied to the mafia. It’s all there.” She continued.Carson stopped pacing and turned to face us, a glint of both relief and worry in his eyes. “That’s good, right? So we can take this to the authorities now? And end this once and for all?!” I shook my head slowly, my fingers tightening around the stack of papers on my lap. “Not yet. We have the proof, yes, but we need to secure a few more pieces before we make any moves. If we present this now without covering our tracks, I have a feeling it wouldn’t give us what we want.”Camilla leaned forward, her gaze serious. “We need to lock everything down. If we go public too soon, Fred

    Minutes Later …Eleanor. I sat on the edge of my bed, my knees pulled to my chest as I stared blankly at the wall. My argument with Arthur was still echoing in my head. We had never fought like this before, not so raw and ugly. My heart felt heavy, honestly I thought I should be feeling angry but I was feeling something different, Guilt. He didn’t deserve the things I said to him.Thinking about it now, I said a lot of things I shouldn’t have, I said a lot of things I didn’t mean and I hurt him even when he tried to make things better. I took advantage of my anger and poured out all my frustrations on him, and honestly, I shouldn’t have. I heard a soft knock on my door but didn’t move. The door creaked open a moment later, and my mother walked in. She didn’t say anything at first, just walked in and sat beside me on the bed. The silence between us was thick, but comforting in its own way. She didn’t push, didn’t demand answers, just waited.“Mom,” I finally whispered, my voice bre

    Meanwhile. 3:30pm.Arthur. The door creaked open, and Eleanor stepped inside without knocking. She didn’t look at me. She never did every single time since today whenever she comes into my office. Her eyes flickered toward the stack of papers on my desk—the ones related to the project we were supposed to be finishing. She crossed the room, her heels clicking against the hardwood floor, sharp and unrelenting like her silence.“Sir,” she muttered emphasizing in the sir like she had been doing since morning and it is killing me!“I need you to review the final revisions for the Miss Matilda project. The budget allocations are off by two percent, and she’s asking for an updated timeline by tomorrow,” she said, her voice steady, detached. She didn’t pause, didn’t give me a moment to respond, just pushed a file onto my desk and continued.“Mrs Penelope wants the project done and over with as soon as possible,”“The marketing team’s also waiting for your approval on the ad campaign for the

    Next Monday.Matilda. “This way Ma’am,” I flashed her a hearty smile as Mr Jackson Assistant led me to his office. My grip on my bag tightened as she led the way and I followed behind her, I wanted to get everything I came here for done as soon as possible. My first and easiest Target was Fred. I had Camilla draw me up companies that Fred cheated is still manipulating to his own advantage. He makes them sign contracts and then goes against them, just because he knew they needed him to survive. This is the third CEO I was visiting today, his office was more modest office, tucked away in the industrial side of the city. immediately I stepped into the office, he looked up and gently got up to his feet to greet me with a small bow.Jackson Barnes, CEO of a local logistics company. “Matilda, I wish I could help,” he said as soon as we sat down, running a hand through his thinning hair. “But you have no idea what these people are capable of.
