ANDERSON'S POVI couldn't think of a better way to deal with Robert. Seeing him with Eleanor made me think of nothing but how to kill him for putting his hands on Eleanor."How are you feeling today?" I asked her."Better. I want to get discharged now." Her eyes were popping out like she didn't have enough sleep."Don't tell me you stayed up all night thinking about home?" My jaw dropped."I couldn't help it. I mean it is so uncomfortable for me and I can't help it." She explained briefly.I wasn't certain about the explanation but then I will do anything to make sure that she is okay. "Fine I will just get the doctor to come and See you so that he can determine if we should go home now or not." I fondled her hair and made her relax.I reached out to the doctor and told him just what she told me."I do not think this is the right time for you to go. You have to wait for some time." He advised."I don't think she wants to wait that long." I said to him,He took a deep breath and loo
ROBERT'S POVI feel so stupid to think that Eleanor was going to welcome me on her sickbed. She was literally more harsh. I could tolerate that, but Anderson?No. He will surely have to pay for this one.I stormed into the house angrily. My face was reddened that the maids and securities avoided me."Robert..." "Get the fuck off me!!" I yelled at Beatrice.Maybe she was part of the whole reason why I was this way."What did you come to do there? I have warned you severely to leave Eleanor for me. I will handle her alone ." My voice was so high and full of rage ."Do you think I was going to sit there and watch her do things to you?""You are probably sick in the head. Who was going to harm whom? You were literally on her neck." I pushed her aside and headed for the mirror.I looked at my face and saw how swollen and rough it was. "Shit! See what this man did to my face?" I folded my hands into a fist."Robert, look, I'm sorry. I need you to calm down." Beatrice tried to hold me tog
ELEANOR'S POVThere was nothing as annoying as seeing Robert here. Now I think someone is spying on me and I should be more careful, because tell me why he keeps knowing where I am?When he walked into the room, I felt like talking away all the drips off my body. I could slap him. He is the reason I am like that and now he is coming to check on me."Get out Robert!" I said it slowly because by now I was tired of shouting.My shouting did not take me anywhere, so I thought saying it calmly would help. "Eleanor, you can not always deny me all the time. I will always be around for you and you know that. I keep telling you..." I interrupted his speech immediately."I know it was a mistake, now can you leave?" I was not ready to hear all the things he had to say. I know with all that he still wouldn't change , he will do what makes him happy and come to tell me it was a mistake."Are you sure you want this?" He got close to me.I swear I will pluck every fucking thing in my body and poun
ROBERT'S POVI was so pissed when dad got to tell everything that son of bitch came here to do. For a moment I regretted going out to do anything, I don't even know if I would have gained anything like taking that guy away."Why did you let him go, dad?" My hands felt like they wanted to punch something.That is something that would have landed twice on Anderson's face twice before he could speak."I didn't not want that in my house. I told you whatever you are doing, you need to keep your location far from you." He reminded me."Dad. He wouldn't even be alive to say what happened to him, he will be lifeless by now if you have the..." I paused so I wouldn't say something offensive to my dad.What I was about to say was kind of offensive and I know how quickly dad can get angry.I took a deep breath and let it slide, I hope that he does not realize something odd."I know you are smart and you want to play smart, but sometimes you have to let people think that you do not know what you a
ELEANOR'S POV "Mmmmm." I stretched on the bed and was about to lie back when I felt something. I got up from the bed and felt something on my forehead. I rushed to check what was happening. What's going on? I touched my forehead and saw a sticky note on my head. "Huh? How?" I jerked up and read what was written on the paper. Follow the lights. Was this some kind of trap that will get me into his trap? The house was too quiet, and now I suspected that Robert had broken in and taken Anderson. Probably they are waiting for me to come see his dead body hanging somewhere. I got confused at what I was seeing; I got up from the bed and peeped outside. This was when I realised that everywhere was dark except for some corner where the lights were on. This was when it all made sense. Follow the lights. I gently got out of the room without making a noise. The whole house was dead silent; I was beginning to suspect something was wrong. As much as I wanted to reach Anderson's room and
ANDERSON'S POVI woke up with a painful arm, but that didn't stop me from seeing that I had the most wonderful sex in a long time."Gosh, my arms hurt." I felt the pain more than ever.Why didn't I feel so much pain when..."Whatever…" I snapped out of it and got up to have my breakfast and take my drugs. That will help.I noticed that Eleanor had gotten to work so early.Now this is me thinking of it as a contract marriage, and now we have fallen for each other. Or maybe I had fallen in love alone.If anyone were to tell me that I will have a space for any woman after the death of my wife and children, I'd hit the person on the nose."Get me more sauce." I called out from the dining room."Did Eleanor have her meal before going?" "No, sir." She responded, nodding.Why would she leave without taking her food? I shrugged the feeling away and hoped that she would get something to eat outside."I need to be satisfied to take my drugs, so please, I don't want to call out for more food."
