Elissa cursed at herself because she was feeling dizzy and her skin felt like it was on fire. She was in front of the room's door, her palm in contact with the door as she tried to keep herself steady. She had no idea where she was, all she could focus on was the irritation of her skin.Carson was here for a meeting and after it was done, he was about to head back to the company, when he spotted someone familiar. His eyes narrowed at the familiar figure that was standing steady, with her back to him. He walked faster and taking the turn, he saw Elissa. Confusion, shock, and worry took place when he saw her there. What was she doing here? He wondered and walked up to her.“Elissa?” he called her name. She looked up, her eyes half open and when she let go of the door, she wobbled and fell in his embrace. Carson caught her and noticed that she was drugged. “Eli, what happened?” he asked, his voice coming urgently.“Hot….I feel hot” she mumbled and snuggled closer to him. His jaw ticked a

Having left with no other choice, Elissa signed the document and went with Carson to the new house she would live in. She hasn't thought of a proper excuse to tell her daughter and brother about this. There was no way she was going to mention anything about Carson to them.“How long do I need to stay here?” she asked, turning her attention from the road to Carson.Carson, without removing his glasses or turning his head, said, “For as long as I please.” There was a high mocking tone in that. Elissa tried to understand what he was doing. Nothing made sense.“I don't know why you are doing this. It's not like we have slept for the first time” she muttered, looking down at her knotted fingers in her lap.Carson heard her and with a smirk, he replied, “Oh, but this is the first time someone took advantage of me. I can't let this slide that easily. ”Even the thought, this was a little reckless. Carson was worried about her safety. He tried to get people to know what happened to Elissa and

Did the plan work or not? Because Elissa is here and she looks perfectly okay” Georgina said from the other line.“It didn't work. The man ran away, said he had something more important to deal with, and left before Elissa went there” Amanda lied.“What? But I thought you took Elissa with you to the room?”“Y

Two days later,Elissa was surprised that she and Carson surprisingly went along. It was as if nothing had happened between them, as if they were back to being they used to be when they met. Elissa was surprised by Carson's actions too. She thought he had changed, she thought he had no feelings for her, nothing but in these two days, she wasn't sure if it was true or not. Yesterday, he had made her favorite dishes, and when she accidentally tripped that following night, he took care of her. He was worried, so much that the pain was marked on his face.At work, she found herself thinking about him, thinking what the situation would have been if three years nothing would have happened.

The cold reminder that Amanda was his fiancee made her stop thinking about him.She was in deep confusion about why he divorced her. His affection towards her was there,

“Elissa!” Benjamin's thundered across the room, making everyone flinch. The door of Elissa's office boomed open and she was suddenly startled. The look on his face was not at all good. Along with him, Georgina was there by his side, carrying the same scowl.“Yes, sir?” she slowly got up from the seat, trying to think what she did wrong. Nothing came up. Two hours ago, she submitted the designs for Benjamin and he had complimented him very well. Everything was going well until now, so what happened?“I knew you are slut but how can you do this to Ben?” Georgina bellowed, forwarding towards her and slamming her palm on the desk. Elissa didn't know what was happening or what she was telling.“I'm sorry, but what have I done?” she asked, glancing at the two of them.

When he reach to his car, just as he was about to open the door, he got a call from his father.

She needs you here” his father told, his voice laced with emotions.Benjamin's mood wasn't any better and with the news of his mother, he didn't know if he should scream or cry. Wiping his face with his palm in frustration, he agreed. “Don't worry, Dad. I'll be there.”With that he ended the call, and felt like punching something. Georgina came and placed her palm on his shoulder. “Ben, is everything okay?” she asked tenderly, genuinely worried.“Mom's in hospital. I need to go there” he told, his one hand on his hips while the other curling the phone.“Oh my! Is she alright?” she asked, shocked and worrie

After Lia's surgery, Carson was visiting her more and more. Elissa was annoyed but at the same time she was happy to see her daughter glowing.“Look, I have you the permission to see her, but that does not mean you will come to live here” Elissa said.

Was she not clear enough that day?“Yes, I don't, Carson. I don't think you should give Lia hopes that you will always be here, taking care of her and all. There is no chance–”“I was not bluffing about what I said on that day. I meant every word. I will always take care of both of you. Even if you don't like me - which is a lie - I am not letting go of my daughter or you. I have made that mistake before, I don't want to again.”Elissa knew she couldn't agree with him about this, so let it go and sighed. “Fine. Whatever. Buf you ar
