Chapter 7

Author's POV

Robert opened the car door and slightly pushed Elena inside the car. Then he ran towards the driver's seat. He got in and started the car immediately.

Robert's heart started breathing fast. He was afraid that Ryan would do something to Elena. He was afraid because he knew Ryan's nature.

"Baby, don't kiss anyone as you kissed him today," Robert said

"But he is my Prince" Elena pouted sadly

Robert sighed hearing this and kept driving.

"Uncle, when he will come to meet me?" Elena asked him.

Robert had no answer to it.

"Will he come with the white horse?" Elena asked him.

"Baby, how could you recognize him? His face was covered by a mask?" Robert asked her.

Elena giggled hearing it.

"I saw him like this before," Elena said

"What? Where?" Robert asked her.

"In the movie also in my dream" Elena whispered cutely yet in her serious tone like she was telling him a top secret.

Robert wanted to bang his head after hearing her words.

"The first thing I will do after reaching home is tell her nanny to cut the electric cable of the television and burn or hide her all fairy tale books. This book will make trouble for her one day" Robert whispered to himself then he concentrated on driving.

Suddenly, Elena shouted.

"Uncle wait"

Robert was startled by her sudden shout and stopped the car.

"What happened Elena?" Robert asked her being so worried.

"Look, my prince," Elena said pointing outside of the car window.

"God, how Ryan Stone Knight, come here?" Robert muttered, and looked out the window and got shocked.

Elena was pointing towards a movie's poster. It was Ryan's last movie which got several awards.

Robert was shocked because in the poster Ryan's face was covered by a mask. Only his eyes were visible.

"Baby, did you watch this movie?" Robert asked her with shock because the movie wasn't a fairy tale movie. This movie is an action movie based on the army.

"Yes. He can fight like the superhero" Elena said cutely

"How did you recognize him on this poster, Elena?" Robert asked her

"I know his eyes. His eyes were like a blue rose. Deep blue" Elena said.

Robert ran his hand in his hair roughly being so annoyed then he started the car again.

"Why this Ryan need to play the prince's role? Why he did make the fairy tale movie?" Robert asked.

"Uncle, where are we going?" Elena asked him.

"Home baby. Why?" Robert asked her.

"I am hungry," Elena said with a pout.

"Hungry! Elena did not have breakfast?' Robert asked her

"I just had juice and they didn't feed me last night because I broke Linda's vase. She beat me and called me a bloody orphan" Elena said in a complaining tone.

Hearing this Robert felt hurt.

"Why did you enter her room, baby? Please don't go anywhere, without Lina" Robert said

"Uncle, I did not enter her room. Her dog broke the vase but she put all blame on me. Her dog is so mean. It always tries to hurt me" Elena said to him.

"Okay. I will talk with her today. It is enough. Weren't their hands enough to hurt her now they brought that dog to harm her" Robert said to himself.

"Uncle, I am hungry. Uncle let's eat here" Elena said again and pointed outside of the window.

Robert stopped the car looked outside and banged his head being so annoyed

It was Ryan's five-star restaurant. This is one of the most famous restaurants in this country. Celebrities visit the restaurant. Every month Ryan earned a lot from this restaurant but he gave this all money to his mother's orphanages. He never used a single penny from it. Also, for it the restaurant is famous. Ryan celebrates his all business parties here so can the orphanages have more money.

"Again we end up here" Robert whispered and got down from the car. He wanted to take Elena to another restaurant but he knew if he did it then Elena would be sad and he didn't want to make her sad.

Robert opens the door and Elena gets down.

"Let's go," Robert said and held her hand. Then they crossed the road and entered the restaurant.

Robert and Elena took the window table.

"Good morning, sir. Good morning ma'am. What should I get you?" The waiter asked and put the menu cards on the table.

Robert nodded and picked up a menu card.

"What do you want to eat?" Robert asked and opened the menu card.

"Pasta," Elena said happily

"Okay. One pasta, juice, and one coffee" Robert said

The waiter nodded and left from there.

"Elena, did Lina treat you nicely?" Robert asked her

"Yes. She is so nice" Elena said when the waiter put the food on the table.

"Enjoy yourself," The waiter said and left from there.

Elena started eating the pasta while Robert started spinning the coffee.

After eating the pasta, Elena picked up the juice bottle and tried to open the stopper of the bottle but failed.

Elena glared at the bottle.

Robert smiled and spoke up," Elena, give it to me"

"No. I am a big girl. I will do it" Elena said and started trying again.

"Of course, you can do it," Robert said and sipped his coffee when he heard someone shout in anger.

Robert looked at Elena who was looking like a scared cat.

Robert looked at her hand and saw the stopper was not there. Robert looked at the way from where the voice came and saw Ryan Stone Knight was sitting a little far from their table. His suit and face were wet like someone had thrown juice on his face and the most important thing was that the stopper was in the juice glass that was Ryan holding.

Then it hits him. Robert looked at Elena. He was looking more scared than her.

"It slipped from my hand," Elena said.

Robert gulped and looked at Ryan who was fuming in anger.

"Baby, stay here. Don't move or turn back. I will back in a minute" Robert said. He was scared that if Elena saw him she will again do something crazy.

Elena nodded her head. Robert stood up and went towards the table.

"I am sorry sir. The stoppered slipped from my daughter's hand. I am sorry for it. Please forgive my daughter" Robert said to him.

"Do you think it is a playground where your daughter can play basketball? Your daughter interrupted my meeting" Ryan shouted

Elena took her handkerchief and stood up.

Robert saw indeed Ryan was sitting with some people and there were many papers on the table. The juice also fell on the laptop which was placed in front of Ryan.

Robert opened his mouth to say something but was cut off by a soft voice.

"Sorry"

Robert moved and Elena stood beside him.

As soon as Ryan's eyes fell on her his eyes widened in shock. The anger vanished from his mind.

"I am sorry," Elena said and started wiping Ryan's face with her pink handkerchief.

Everyone looked at her like she was an alien. Because they knew Ryan did not like being touched by women. The last time a girl touched his hand and he broke her hand.

Ryan kept looking at her like a statue. He got back his sense when Elena pulled his tie to wipe his neck.

Ryan held her hand immediately and looked at the handkerchief. There was a big picture of him on her handkerchief.

"Are you okay, Prince?" Elena asked him.

Everyone's eyes were about to come out from their holes after hearing it.

"I am okay" Ryan replied and was shocked after hearing his own answer.

"I am sorry again. Please excuse us" Robert said and dragged Elena from there. Ryan kept looking at her until she went out of her sight.

Stephen cleared his throat to gain Ryan's attention.

Ryan looked at his business partners and found them looking at him with shock.

"She is my dearest fan. Let's continue the meeting" Ryan said and started the meeting again while Stephen smiled at his boss cum friend.
