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

Those eyes! Eleana was stunned at the face of the stranger before her but his eyes were more mesmerising. The street lights were reflected in his brown eyes, making it seem as if they were twinkling. Those beautiful eyes that were so cold and lifeless, were staring at her and she felt that it was also staring into her soul. The scar across his eye added to his enchanting face , giving off a seductive and dangerous vibe and his hair , they looked so silky. "Are you scared of my voice?", the stranger repeated , stretching out his hand towards Eleana. Eleana noticed that she made a mistake by coming out of the car, maybe it was the empty road that made her feel scared making her heart scream for her to run away from this man, but she almost hit him so she has to take responsibility for that. Steeling her mind and hoping she was wrong, she held his hand and pulled him up. "No, I'm not and I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to hit you", she said. The stranger took Eleana's hand and

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

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

“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 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

"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. Over the past few weeks, Georgina has been having weird dreams, or visions, she wasn't sure. At first, she thought it was a dream since it only occurs when she is asleep, but, recently, she see flashes of images floating through her mind, trying to remind her of somet

"Mommy, do you know that, Isabelle called Uncle Shawn and he rushed to the house, she even said that he drove really fast so he could catch up with the ambulance I was in!", she paused for dramatic effect, a mischievous grin spreading across her beautiful face. "And you see this room......Uncle Shawn paid for it!".Eleana's eyes widened in surprise, while Gabriella's eyebrows shot up in astonishment. Georgina continued, her voice filled with excitement. "Isabelle said he called a doctor and had them prepare this room for me. He even bought me these yummy fruits when the doctor said I should eat more fruits and told the babysitter that she can leave if she wants to because the babysitter was scared of his stoic face and he....." "Georgina, that is enough", Shawn's interruption was swift, his voice low and gentle preventing her from saying what he knew she was going to say next.

"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

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
