2024-10-29 19:42:56The kids at the playground surrounded her to the point where the sunlight had difficulty in reaching her. Eleanor raised her head to look at the smirky looks that the kids had as she raised herself from the concrete ground.
Her body was gripped in fear while her timid personality was degrading the situation, affecting her body language.
“Aren’t you the girl without a dad? Wow that must suck huh?” One of the boys questioned with a laugh that triggered the entire group to engage in laughter as well.
Their mockery of her, made Eleanor to lower her head even more with the humiliation getting to her. She could not bare what all was happening with her.
“My m-mom s-said…” Eleanor wanted to speak up to try and make them stop but her voice was not strong enough to pass theirs.

The intensity of the situation put a huge toll on her mind and played a major role in the shock that she was experiencing.She ran towards her mother in hopes of waking her up.

“Mommy!” Eleanor became emotionally ecstatic upon seeing her mother finally awaking from the deep sleep that she was in.“E-Eleanor…” she whispered out of her lips as she tried to get herself up and sitting right from the bed. Her face could not be seen clearly as the while bandages covered most of her facial features including her nose.Though Eliza had awoken and was responsive to her daughter, Eleanor could not help but feel worried about the bandages that were covering her mother’s face.The doctor noticed the worry and confusion inside of Eleanor’s eyes and came forth with his lips curved.“There is nothing to worry about, Eleanor. The fall that your mother was in, made a few injuries to her face but I was able to fix it all up. I’ll take the bandages off now so you can see for yourself….” The doctor said to convince Eleanor tha

“Eliza, there is actually an emergency that I need to inform you about…” he said with a concerning voice. “What is it, dad? Everything alright?” She asked with her eyebrows narrowed at the strange news that her dad was referring to. “Actually, I went in for my routine check up with my doctor and during the examination, he told me that due to my old age, carrying out my duties at Harper Corp would not be the best for my health. I tried to convince him to allow me to continue my duties but he is reluctant to do so.” “So I was wondering if you could come back and take charge of Harper Corp for me?” He asked her as straightforward as he could. It was too much of him to ask but he would not have brought it up if it were not so important either. “Dad! What are you talking about? Are you ok?” Eliza asked with a pale face. She could not believe that her dad’s health was deteriorating. There was just

“Daddy!!” a young girl’s scream echoed through the silent mansion of a home. Within a few seconds, a series of thumps against the floor could be heard, making the young girl’s face widen with a smile. She turned around from the large mirror through which she was admiring herself and noticed a tall, built man standing at the door of her room. The man stood still in awe looking at the tiny five-year-old, swaying her skirt in front of her. She was dressed in a navy-blue, long sleeved school uniform with a plaid red skirt. With a slight tilt of her head towards the right and her hands placed on her hips, she let out a few words with a rather confident yet adorable voice, “Well daddy, what do you think?” The man who was her father, had a dumbstruck expression painted against his face which led to a fade of excitement on the girl’s face as well. She was awfully confused with the way her dad was reacting to her and her un

It was a new day. A day of new beginnings for both Elenor and Eliza as they set foot on a train en route to the old city. While the both of them were nervous about their new life, Eliza was the one who was the most worried about this journey. She feared the worst to come especially when the matter concerned Eleanor. She knew that Benjamin resided in the same city. He had not left the place like she had. She felt like she was entering the lion’s den as the train was nearing their stop. Her heart was beating in an erratic manner as she held onto the railing. Anxiety was flourishing inside her, making her face appear pale and drained. Eliza’s abnormal appearance caught the attention of her little daughter with curious eyes. “Mommy, are you feeling alright?” she tugged at her pants to drift her mother’s attention towards her. Eliza, trying her best to shield her only daughter left from all the pain and suffering that she had borne, dismissed Eleanor’s concerns, “Of course sweethear

Eleanor was in awe the more she approached the grand structure. It was night and day compared to the old home that they used to live in Riverburgh. She let her eyes scan through the place, her height much smaller in comparison. It was a new environment for her so she kept close to her mother as they passed through the front yard. There was a small stream flowing below the bridge that they were just passing through. Stones that were carved in abstract as well as flowery art beautified the area even more. Small fish swam across the stream in the most gentle manner, making Eleanor smile. It was like heaven on earth… even Eliza was impressed with the upgrade done since she was last there. “Wow!” Both Eliza and Eleanor gasped in sync. As they approached the large wide doors ahead of them, they stopped in their place and pressed the doorbell. Doug stood besides them as he set the luggage down after carrying them all the way to the doorstep. Before they knew it, the door was opened

“Dad, can we talk about that? I need to tell you something but in private.” Eliza and Tom both knew that discussing Benjamin in front of Eleanor was not good at all. It was difficult shielding her from her own biological father but Eliza had no choice. She did not want Eleanor to know the monster she had as a father. She knew that it would break her heart so she decided that it was better if she did not know him at all and she was determined to have it that way. “Uh, Mary!” Tom quickly thought of something and called for one of his maids. “Yes, sir?” “Could please take my darling granddaughter to the living room?” he directed his maid to escort Eleanor away from the discussion that they were about to have.Eleanor stared at them with confusion wondering why they wanted to send her away. Her concerned eyes caught their attention, making them bend their knees.“Sorry Eleanor, your mom and I just need to speak for a bit.” Tom wanted to give a vague explanation, hoping that Eleanor

Long after his exhausting night, it was finally the next morning. Benjamin woke up at the command of his usual early alarm. He was punctual and did not require to hit the snooze button even once. He dressed up in his normal business attire— a blue suit, before walking downstairs towards Bailey’s room. It was his morning routine to go ahead and wake his little daughter up and prepare her for school. However this time, his eye caught a glance of Eliza and Eleanor’s room that was located adjacent to Bailey’s. He contemplated whether to greet Eleanor a good morning first but he somehow felt that he should go ahead with Bailey. After all, he did recall how stressful last evening was. Bailey’s doors were opened, allowing Benjamin to witness his daughter surprisingly out of bed before his arrival. He was amazed by what he saw… so much so that his face tightened as his mouth stretched with a gasp. “Bailey? Is that you?” He asked, still maintaining his previous look. Bailey, who was

“Would you mind explaining yourself, Benjamin?” “Why was that woman in this house?” Eliza spat out critical questions in front of Benjamin who showed his back to her. The two were in contrasting states with Eliza being extremely furious and demanding while Benjamin was calm and cool. “Answer me, Benjamin.” She walked right up to him and placed her right hand on his shoulder in order to gain his attention. Without any warning, once Eliza’s hand touched his shoulder, Benjamin vice gripped her arm and held it behind her back. “Ahhh!” Eliza moaned in pain as his strength was unmatched in comparison to her tiny frame. “Don’t you dare touch me.” Benjamin rebuked her actions with a stern touch in his voice. Eliza knew he wasn’t playing around. He was at the brink of ripping her arm off. “Then tell me under what reason did you allow Shannon here? Why is that demon so close to my children?” Eliza cried out. “The same reason why I’m allowing you to be so close to MY children.” Upon he

Shannon stood rigidly at the entrance of the grand dining room, her gloved hand clutching a bundle of shopping bags, while the other removed her tinted sunglasses to allow the bright light of the room to penetrate her eyes. As her vision cleared, Shannon's heart plummeted with shock as her gaze fell upon none other than Eliza. The tell-tale sign of her surprise was visible through the sudden constriction of her pupils. Her hands, weakened by the shock, could not bear the weight of the bags, and they tumbled to the ground with a loud thud. Meanwhile, her red lips parted in disbelief. "Eliza?" Shannon muttered, feeling lost and unsure of how to react. In the presence of everyone seated at the grand table, Shannon struggled to regain her composure. Everything felt so unreal initially until realisation hit her. A surge of anger coursed through her body as she recalled the years of hard work she had put into getting rid of Eliza for good. Shannon could hardly fathom how her nemesis ha

Eliza did not waste a second before scooping Eleanor in her arms, not breaking her eye contact with Benjamin. She was furious internally by his behaviour that he was displaying in front of an innocent child. “My baby, are you okay?” she asked, breathing heavily while inspecting Eleanor in case Benjamin was rough with her. She knew that whenever anger took over the man, his senses completely collapsed. He wouldn’t be able to distinguish right from wrong and harm the ones he’s supposed to protect. Thankfully, Eleanor was in perfect condition but it was obvious that she was mentally disturbed by the clash between her parents. Once Eliza and Eleanor entered Benjamin’s mansion, memories began to flood Eliza’s mind without any warning. She remembered all the moments she used to spend with Benjamin in each and every single corner of the place. The moment they wanted to commit their lives to each other. A tear trickled down the corner of her eye but she instantly wiped it clean. She d

“Please Benjaminn…. Please give me my daughter back.” Eliza was practically on her knees begging for the safe return of Eleanor. As time passed with Eleanor not by her side, Eliza felt an empty hole in her heart. She didn’t want to fail the only daughter she had left. Getting her back was the only way to mend her broken heart. “You don’t have to beg this prick for anything, Eliza.” “If he won’t co-operate and give our Eleanor back, I’ll make sure his life will be a living hell.” Tom targeted his blood shot eyes at Benjamin with his fists tightening with every passing second. If it weren’t for the security guards, Tom’s anger would have led him into a fist brawl with his daughter’s ex-lover. The atmosphere was silent with tension looming over it. While Eliza and Tom were restless, Benjamin had a cold expression plastered on his face. Amidst the guards, Benjamin began to advance his way towards the father-daughter duo on the other side of the gate. “Sir, what are you doing? Plea

Eliza was devastated seeing Benjamin run off with her daughter. She failed to protect Eleanor after all these years, making her hit herself in the gut. Her face depicted the combination of anger, frustration and sadness that she was feeling internally.Dozens of people passed by her but did nothing to help. They spectated her as if she was putting on some act which made her heart ache even more. ——— “Eliza? Oh my god, what happened to you?” Tom was horrified to find his daughter’s face disfigured with sadness. The tears rolling down her eyes dragged her black mascara with them, staining the rest of her face. Her appearance was night and day compared to what it was when she left the house to spend a day with Eleanor at the mall. “Dad… he… he took her!” Eliza sobbed, her face falling in her dad’s arms. He gently caressed her while bearing a stressed out and confused expression. “Who took who? Eliza? Where is Eleanor?” Tom fretted several questions at her. “B-Benjamin… he took m

Chapter 56“Please stop this Benjamin. I don’t have any energy left to argue with you. Let’s just go our separate ways and pretend we never saw each other.” Eliza said with a defeated sigh. It took everything in her to not break down in tears in front of her ex and children. She did not want to cause a scene in front of any of them. Moreover, she was feeling very emotional after taking a look at Bailey. She recalled giving her up unwillingly to Sharon that day at the hospital. If only…. If only she was not so helpless, she could have had Bailey to herself instead of letting her grow up with a man like Benjamin Clayton. She always wanted to be a role model to her children to grow up to be fearless, independent women but looking at her now, she felt like she failed to do so. “Come on, Eleanor, let’s leave.” Eliza grabbed ahold of Eleanor’s hand and proceeded to leave everything she encountered here behind. Eliza knew she couldn’t let all those years of healing herself be shattered

Eliza couldn’t believe what she was seeing in front of her. The Benjamin Clayton was standing tall in front of her. “Be-benjamin?” she muttered under her breath. Never in these years, she expected to say that name again. Never did she expect to see that charming face once again. He looked the same, except a bit more mature. Eliza was in awe to be so close to him once again. Memories of the cruel treatment that he subjected her to instantly began to play in her mind. The colour on her skin flushed out with the intense anxiety she began to feel, reliving all those painful memories. A lonesome tear began to trickle down her cheek and onto Eleanor’s head. Eleanor was nervous, wondering what was going on in her mother’s mind. Bailey noticed that Benjamin wasn’t even looking at Eliza. He was fixed on Eleanor as if he was seeing a miracle in front of his very eyes. Eliza’s grip on Eleanor’s tiny arm grew tight with fear and sadness taking over her appearance.Her heart began to race r

“You mean you want to bring your mom and my dad together?” “Yes!” Eleanor answered Bailey’s question with an eager face. She was nervous and anxious at the same time as she knew she was very close to finding out who her real dad was. Though it had been long with his absence in her life, it was better late than never. Bailey took in a short burst of air and let out a sigh. She played with her air as she was lost in her thoughts with Eleanor patiently waiting for some sort of reaction from her side. “But don’t you think they’d get upset if we did this? I mean… they must’ve separated for a reason.” Bailey broke her train of thought and let out a crucial question. She knew very well how angry her dad could get. “You’re right… but… this is the only way to get the truth out of them.” Eleanor stuttered in a low voice. Though she was concerned as well, she couldn’t think of any other way. It was either them uniting their parents or all of them acting like total strangers for the rest o
