Watched

Sebastian POV

“Countless people struggle to join this skyline group, and here she wants to quit her job. Did she get bullied or what?” I thought as I got the report that she wishes to resign.

Without hesitating, I instructed Ethan to bring me the footage from the reception without giving it a second thought.

Ethan looked at me in shock before he replied and left to carry out my order.

A few minutes later, the computer screen was in front of me and I watched the video footage from the reception. I clicked on one of the videos, zoomed in, and Eleanor popped on the screen.

She is currently being watched and completely unaware. I looked at her as she stood at the receptionist desk in a straight posture. I zoomed in again, so I could see her expressions clearly.

It was noon and she was still standing. She has been standing since morning and will remain standing until five in the evening.

I guess this is the first time she ever stood long, especially on heel. It will make her feet sore.

I kept on watching her and after a while, she could no longer bear it. While Wendy was Way, she sneakily sat down and took off her heels so that her nice and tender feet could breathe. She kept one of her feet on top of the other, and she wriggled it. She was afraid that she might get caught as her eyes darted everywhere.

“Wow….the scene was wonderful”

Although it could not relieve her, it was better off.

She tiptoed quietly so that her colleague who was next to her wouldn't notice what she was doing.

I could see all her expressions clearly through the screen, and I was amused.

As I kept watching her, I flashed back to the memories of how I pressed her down, her sweet pleading cry lingered in my ears. 

The pitiful look on her cute face she had when I penetrated into her.

Her thoughts alone made my body boil in lust, and it made me want to pin her underneath me and have her my way.

I noticed that she was knitting her brows, and I understood why she was acting that way.

There is no way she wouldn't get tired standing for the entire day. 

When she finished relieving her right foot, her glare mistakenly fell on the camera which was placed in the corner and her expressions stiffened.

She forgot that the computer has surveillance cameras in every corner.

She anxiously wore back her heels and prayed that no one spotted her disobeying the rules.

“What are you doing? A voice said as he came closer.

She was taken aback, and she wondered if he saw what she did.

However, he seemed to be trying to hit on her.

She looked at him as she didn't know him. It was her first day at work, but her colleague did.

“Good afternoon Mr. Nick,” her colleague greeted.

“This is Eleanor, our new employee,” she said and pointed at Eleanor. His gaze fell on her body.

“What's your name? He asked.

“Eleanor sterling”

“That's a lovely name for a beautiful woman”

She kept looking at the man as she didn't know how to respond to his flirtation. She just smiled instead.

“I would like to take you for dinner tonight. Make sure you come Eleanor” he said and left.

“I'm just a newcomer, why is he inviting me for dinner? Is it necessary? She stood looking lost as she murmured to herself.

“That man is Mr. Nick, the head of the HR department. He is a relative to Mr. Donovan, he is wealthy. If you associate with such a man, you might become wealthy and also become part of the Springville family” her colleague explained, bringing her out of her thoughts.

Eleanor's POV

 “What if I don't want to go? I asked.

“Why not? What if he decides to give you a hard time in this company, so they can lay you off if you don't go for dinner? My colleague asked.

My only hope is to raise and take care of my kids and not to entangle with the rich.

Besides, no matter how much a man likes me, if he finds out I'm a mother of quadruplets, he would run away like a coward.

“Ele, Ele" my called as she ran to me after talking on the telephone.

“Mr Nick wants you to come to his office now” she said.

“Why, what for?

“When you get there, you will find out”

I have never been to the other side of the company, except the first floor. So I asked around before I got to Mr. Nick's office.

I knocked on the door before I entered.

He smiled as soon as he saw me.

“You came,” he mumbled.

“Is there anything I can do for you, sir? 

“I want you to follow me to my car. I want to take you to buy some new clothes. Thereafter, we will have dinner together”

“I'm sorry, sir. I have to be home early”.

“Are you declining?

“I'm sorry sir but yes. I'm just a new employee and I don't wish to join you for dinner”

“Do you realize you're simply a receptionist? Having an interest in you is a great fortune to you. You need to be thankful for that” he said as he laughed.

“Thank you for having a good impression on me, Mr. Nick, but I decline” I said and turned to leave.

As I walked to the elevator, I felt disgusted towards his attitude. The little money he has polluted his brains. He is behaving like a mini god.

Before I could reach for the elevator buttons, someone stopped me.

“Eleanor, I will be lenient on you and give you another chance to carefully think, else I will make life miserable for you in this company. Even more miserable than that of a puppet.

At this point, I was boiling in rage 

I might be poor and powerless, but that didn't mean I could be bullied.

If it means I would be laid off, then so be it.

“Are you sneering at me? He asked.

“Are you blind, Mr. Nick, what else could it be, huh? Of course, I'm sneering at you" I snapped.

He gave me a stern look as he couldn't believe his ears.

“With all due respect, Nick, I didn't mean to say this, but just because you're Wealthy doesn't mean you can go around sowing your wild oats.  The way I see it, You're more like a gigolo. You're an eyesore"

“How dare you, Eleanor!! He shouted.

I guess he has never been put in his right place before.

“You dirty bitch, you need to be flattered for me to spend a night with you. You don't know what's good for you”.

“I'm not the kind of girl that crawls into a man's bed”

As I stood looking at him eyeball to eyeball, he grabbed my hand and dragged me to his car. I was screaming.

"Let go of me, you bastard. What do you think you're doing?

He held my waist with one hand and pushed me into his car.

He knelt down and pressed my body with one hand.

Although I'm skinny and after giving birth, I developed an hourglass shape.

My mere sight made him so intoxicated…..
