My Daughter Wants A New Dad: My Lucky Star Chapter 30: UNNOTICED
Grinning from ear to ear, Georgina opened the door wider. "Welcome everyone.... You may come in". She closed the door after them. The men walked into the room, making the comfy house feel smaller for Eleana and Gabriella. The ladies stood up, overwhelmed by the guests in their house. "Uncle Shawn!!", Isabelle called out loudly from where she was sitting.. Shawn gave her a warm smile which melted Eleana's heart as she looked up at his face, his tall stature overshadowing hers. She sneakily observed his features; his chiselled jaw, brown hair, his long lashes that would swoon any woman, his perfectly well coloured milk suit that matches with his skin tone and his hazel coloured eyes, he was the epitome of handsome and she couldn't look away. Shawn caught Eleana staring and quickly, she averted her gaze. “Hello! I don’t think we’ve had a proper introduction. My name is Christopher and I am a friend of Gabriella and a brother to Shawn”, Christopher said with his hands stretched
My Daughter Wants A New Dad: My Lucky Star Chapter 31: An Unexpected Question
Everyone stood up quickly and Eleana rushed to Shawn's side, her body trembling in fear and anxiety. "Come on baby, breathe, just breathe", Eleana said, holding Isabelle palm in hers as Shawn continues to push her tummy upwards. "Cah, cah, cah, cah", Isabelle coughed as she let out the meat that was clogged her throat. They all let out a sigh in relieve while Shawn held her properly and patted her hair. "Are you okay little one?", he asked, his voice soothing to the ears. Isabelle nodded weakly and wrapped her hands around Shawn's neck. Stretching out her hand to hold Isabelle, Eleana thank Shawn. "Thank you Sir.....Baby, come on, mama will hold you", Shawn tried to give Isabelle to Eleana but the little one refused to let go. She tightened her hold on Shawn's neck.Shawn was confused and couldn't make out what Isabelle wanted. "Little one, your mama wants to hold you, let go", he said but Isabelle gave no reply. "Baby Belle?", Georgina called out. "Alright, she is fine now, y

"Do you know what happened? Uncle Shawn?", Georgina repeated the question after a brief pause. Shawn hesitated, his eyes clouding over. "I saved you from getting hit by a car. That's what happened" "A car? Like, I was on the road?", She asked, her mind racing. This was going in a direction Shawn did not like, she was an inquisitive child and he doesn't want to say anything that might trigger her memories, he for one, hopes she forgets about it. "Yes, you were about to cross the road", he answered, choosing his words carefully. "Okay... But, why was I crossing the road? I never cross the road by myself, so who was there with me?", Georgina probed more. She had these questions on her mind for days now but her mother avoids telling her anything that concerns her accident, so does Aunt Gabriella. She knew from Isabelle that the man who came to the hospital the other day was her father, but why does she not remember him? What really happened that day? Mom forbade Isabelle from tellin

"Who would want to do that?", Gabriella wondered as she sat on the hand of the chair, close to Eleana. "I thought of Dane, but Mark said it's someone stronger and ruthless than him, I don't know anyone like that. What could I possibly have done to that person?", Eleana lamented, standing up abruptly and pacing about the room. "I don't know any influential person other than the Diamen family and Dane didn't allow me to talk to anyone much less making friends so how could I have met or angered someone that is more powerful than Dane?". At this point Eleana was talking to herself, crazy with fear and worry that she didn't even remember there had visitors. Walking to her, Gabriella held her hand and snapped her out of her panic trance. "Calm down Elly, we don't know if that's even true and if it is, we've got three of the most powerful men in this city right out this door and all we need to do is ask for their help and this will be solved", Gabriella advised, trying to calm Eleana do

Dane watched his father's lips curve in an evil smirk, that made him suspect something was up. His father, Shokima Diamen, was the most ruthless and dangerous person he had ever met in his life. Born and brought up in Stonefall, a city riddled with gangsters and mafia lords, his father made his way out of that and made a name for himself in the oil and gas industry through bloodshed and backstabbing. Dane wished he didn't have a father like him, who's ruthlessness extended to his own family. He was truly happy when his father went on one of his long vacations, it was the most peaceful moment in his life but now, Shokima is back, and this time more worse than before. He couldn't help but think to their first conversation upon his return, it was a day after he last visited Eleana at the hospital.

Dane had finished discussing with his father and wanted to bid his mother goodbye but couldn't find her. He thought she might have gone out and was about leaving when he met the new maid his father hired or bought. She was cleaning the shelves, her thigh length dress clinging to her tightly. She was light skinned so the red marks on her body was so evident he could see it clearly from where he stood, it seems his father will never change in this life. *Ahem ahem* - he coughed in order to get her attention. The maid turned her head to see who it was, when she saw that it was Dane she hurriedly bow in greeting. "Goodmorning sir", she said in a coarse voice. "Morning...Do you know where my mother went to?", he asked. "She is in the garden sir", the maid replied, her head stil in a bow position. "Alright, thank you", he replied and walked away, not bothering to tell her there's no need for a bow, his father had already beaten her into submission. It was almost midday so the sun was
My Daughter Wants A New Dad: My Lucky Star Chapter 37: Are you scared of my voice Miss?
The happy chatter from the closed door made Eleana wonder who her children were talking to. That was definitely Georgina's voice, but who was the other person? She knocked on the door before entering and saw that she was talking with a nurse. “Mummy!”, Isabelle called out and ran to Eleana. “Baby”, Eleana responded with a kiss. Looking up to meet a strange pair if eyes, she greeted the nurse. “Hello Miss!”, “Hello. You are their mother, Mrs Eleana?”, the nurse asked, standing up. “Yes I am, I hope they’re not troubling you Miss?”, Eleana asked jokingly. “Hmmm, just a little bit”, she demonstrated with her fingers. Georgina’s eyes shot up in accusation, wanting to refute the nurse's statement.. The nurse chuckled at Georgina’s look . “I’m kidding….They are quite lovely and very inquisitive, especially Georgina”. “Yes, she gets that from me. Do you know where doctor George might be?”, Eleana asked the nurse. “He’s attending to an emergency, but he asked me t

"Your Honour, these are the evidence to back up his claim", Attorney Baxter said as he handed a copy of the pictures to he Judge and the media tech. The images were displayed on the screen. The first one was kinda dark, but the face of Eleana in the embrace of a man who's face was bot taken, was clear for all to see, the picture even captured the children sitting inside the car. This changed the people opinions again, some that had believed Eleana was already jumping the fence. _How could she be so loose?__ That was the thought that passed through most of the people's mind. Eleana felt as if she was drenched in cold water. "Isn't that the stranger that was walking on the road", she thought, looking intently at the picture until realization dawned on her. "I see...So he was a setup?", she asked no one in particular as she muttered under her breathe. She didn't view the stranger as someone that was hired for a job like that, he looked too _mighty_ for that, in anyway the ph
My Daughter Wants A New Dad: My Lucky Star Chapter 46: Evidence
AT THE SAME MOMENT IN THE COURTROOM: Attorney Baxter was already asking Dane questions they had practiced beforehand. It was of paramount importance to portray Dane as a father who thought providing everything his children could ever ask for was the best way to take care of them. "Mr Dane, Mrs Eleana here, accused you of being an abuser, what is your take on that?", Attorney Baxter's question elicit murmurs in the courtroom. "What's the lawyer trying to do, there's already evidence that he did lay his hands on her, isn't he just adding more salt to the room?", "Is this lawyer actually defending the man or offending him?", "This question won't be in his favour, no?". These were the words spoken in low tone as the gallery wondered what the lawyer was up to. "Order!!", the bailiff said, reminding them that the court was still in session. "Mr Dane please answer the question", Attorney Baxter said to Dane, giving him signals to repeat what they had practiced the day before.

Shawn was sorting through some documents in his office, with Andrew by his side, his baritone voice resounding in the quite space, as he discussed the latest construction update. The marketing manager was also there, waiting patiently to report on the latest marketing strategy that his team came up with , which will elevate the company's popularity, propelling it higher in the international stage. This atmosphere was broken by the weird ringtone coming out from Shawn's phone. It was a poem, a kid's poem, but Andrew was already used to this sound ever since the day Georgina added a special ringtone for her number so Shawn would know who was calling without having to see the number, unlike the marketing manager whose jaw dropped in shock. __Wha...? What the hell is this sound?? Did a bug enter the boss's phone?__He wondered, surprise etched on his face, but this was only the beginning. A smile escaped from Shawn's lips, a sight that Andrew was gradually getting used to but it

It's been hours and they were still playing with their phone, she go so bored that she fell into the dream land. "Look, sister Ginny, the babysitter is asleep", Isabelle pointed out, informing her elder sister. "I guess she is tired, that's good, we can finally do that", Georgina said as she sprang up and kept the phone aside, but Isabelle took it along with her. "Sister Ginny are you sure mommy won't get angry?", Isabelle asked as she fiddled with her fingers, while looking at her elder sister with her natural puppy eyes.

Attorney Baxter stood up with a file in his hand; "Mrs.Eleana, you said, you and Mr. Dane has been married for seven years now, correct?", he asked. "Yes, we have", Eleana replied curtly. "And in these seven years, how much have you contributed to the growth of your family, financially?", the lawyer asked again. Eleana furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "I don't understand", she stated. "Okay, let me rephrase that", the lawyer said as he walked closer to her. "In these past years, how much money have you contributed to foot your household bills?", "Objection your Honour, the question is irrelevant", Attorney Liana objected. "Your Honour, I am about to show it's relevance", "Sustained, the witness may answer the question", the Judge said to Eleana.Eleana realized where the lawyer was getting at, she hadn't spent a dime of her money on anything and that might give off the idea that she is irresponsible and incapable of taking proper care of her children. "None", she replied cu

“You may continue”, the Judge said. “Thank you, Your Honour. Mrs Eleana, many of us in the court may wonder, why didn’t you leave when the abuse began or was there something else that kept you there?”, “My children", Eleana replied without much thought. “I didn’t have a father while growing up and I know how that feels, I didn’t want my children to ever experience the pain of losing a father, so no matter how Dane treated me, I stayed, for my children” “And why did you decide to leave now?”, Attorney Liana further questioned. There was a little hesitance from Eleana when that questioned was asked. Attorney Liana noticed it and had to remind Eleana of an important fact; “Remember Mrs Eleana, you are bound by law and faith to answer every question truthfully". Eleana nodded in understanding and said; “I decided to leave when he brought home his side woman, over the years, no matter how much he fooled around outside, he never brought any of them close to his house and his c

AT THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT OFFICE: The once lively office was doused with a solemn silence. Disappointment, guilt, anger and sadness filled the air. One might ask; "Isn't it just an issue with the version, it can easily be resolved. That shouldn't warrant this type of atmosphere right?", but what they wouldn't know is that, this is the first time the project management team failed a presentation. They have all worked together under Arnold's tight rule and protection, so they haven't had a day like this. It was a foreign feeling and to think that the cause of all this was something that even an amateur could avoid. The team members couldn't help but throw disappointed looks at Ssrah, but she had been here longer than most of them so they really couldn't voice out their anger. Noticing the mood in the office, and her teammates accusing looks, Sarah decided to stand up and apologise when Eleana beat her to it: "I'm sorry for letting the team down. I was the one in charge of cross

AT ML CONSTRUCTION: Eleana, are you ready?", Asher, the assistant project manager, asked her. "Yes, I'm fine, thanks". "Okay", Asher nodded in understanding. Eleana was staring out the window, lost in thoughts and uncertainly, this would be the first time she will be seeing Shawn after his visit to Gabriella's house, and the first time she would be meeting him as her boss, which was unnerving. She fidgeted with her pen, her mind racing with doubts. "How should I act? Will he think I didn't deserve the spot when he sees me? What if.....? Ahh! I'm thinking too much about this", Sofia, noticing her distress, offered a reassuring smile. "Hey, we've all been there. Meeting the boss for the first time is nerve-wracking, but he's not that scary". "Thank you Sofia", Eleana said assured by her words, but Sofia got one thing wrong tho, the fact that the Big Boss has been to her house and even had breakfast there. "Not if she makes a fool of herself when she sees the boss", Sasha s
