At Henderson MansionMary, Cannon’s mother entered Cannon’s room only to find no trace of Cannon there but only Elaine. She was sitting on the floor in the middle of the room and crying silently. Elaine couldn't decide what to do or where to go now. It had been hours already Cannon left the room. And she could feel, he wasn’t coming back to her or something. Elaine got out of her trance as a voice got into her hearing, “Get up.”She tilted her head towards the voice and found Mary, standing by the door. She hesitantly got up and Mary spoke up again, “Let’s go now.”Before Elaine could get asking her, she answered, “To Cannon’s place.”Elaine was so out of it to understand her word and got standing in her place.Mary looked back at her way and shot her a sinister look, “What are you waiting for? Follow me.”Elaine got following her being caught up with her mental disarray.~☘~When Elaine entered Cannon’s place, Ethan was already there. Seeing Mary, he spoke up, “Cannon isn’t here al
While sitting on the floor leaning on the door, Elaine didn’t know when she fell asleep. And when she opened her eyes, it was already morning.For a moment she got all startled finding herself in an unfamiliar place like this but the dress on her reminded her the reality and the all cold face of Cannon only to change her condition to a panicked one.Can’t I just leave this place without letting anyone know?But where will I go?Looking at her bags, she could feel her going back to her earlier place would be of no help.They would surely send her back here if not worse. She always knew they didn't like her but what she didn’t know that her worth to them was almost zero. If not, then they would have thought at least once before doing something like this to her.I have no home to return. But any place will do. I can just ask help from Hina. As anyways I can’t just live here like this. Before Cannon gets on really making my life hell, I will just leave this place. Nodding at that thought
Author's POVWaking up early in the morning.. well, it's not actually waking up as Cannon didn't get to have a sleep not even for a single moment. All the time he just kept replaying the happenings in his mind for umpteenth times.And with every single time he was getting angrier than before. He was not in his sense. Nor he wished to think rationally anymore.He had already been enough of gentleman and got the feedback in the worst way possible.Who was I kidding actually!He thought in mind. When he felt a severe headache, he walked to the washroom.Getting a cold shower, he dried himself. He was still feeling the headache but without bothering that, he got ready for the office.Getting out of the room, he walked towards the staircase but not before casting a deadly glare at the door of the guest room.Behind that door was his bride. His replaced bride.Bella was working in the kitchen. She saw Cannon but remembering his cold behaviour from last night, she didn't dare to ask him abou
Cannon left but Elaine couldn't get herself to move away from her place being lost in her thoughts...What is happening actually? Why is Cannon behaving like this to me?He is thinking of me as a liar and betrayer then why is he asking me to go with him to the party? Why?Before entering his room, Cannon turned back and found Elaine standing at the door somewhat baffled."Elaine, 19 minutes." he almost shouted getting her out of her trance.She looked confusedly at Cannon who was staring at her from the doorway of his room as both of the rooms stood facing each of other."Be fast" with this, Cannon entered his room and walked to the closet.Taking his clothes, he entered the washroom silencing the disturbing thoughts of his mind.Giving her thought a break, Elaine also got near her bags. After searching for a few minutes, she found the dress she bought for Evana that night at the mall before the wedding day.A burgundy side slit mermaid dress.Bracing herself, she took the dress wit
Elaine heaved a sigh as she waited alone for Cannon while drinking more juice which seemed delicious. Maybe because of her starvation for two days made them taste even more amazing.She continued taking one glass after another until she felt she needed to go to the restroom.Knowing the direction from a waiter, she rose on her feet and walked there.After she was done, she stood in front of the mirror there silencing thousands of questions running in her head. Mentally noting to sort everything out by any means after going back to Cannon's place with him, she tried to calm her restless mind. Then she got out of the washroom and walked towards the hall room. As soon as she entered the hall room, a waiter who was looking for her, walked to her. His hand reached up with a piece of folded paper.Elaine’s brows furrowed as she asked, "What's that?"The waiter replied politely, "I don't know ma'am. Sir Jr. Henderson told me to give you this."Hesitatingly, Elaine took the paper from his h
It was four by morning and there was darkness all around. There was no way Elaine had met sleep in her way for the whole night. She was having thousands of thoughts crossing her mind and at last she made up her mind all by herself only to leave. After pacing in the room for long enough, Elaine packed her bags. As she didn’t unpack, there wasn’t much to pack actually for what she felt thankful. When she was done, she stood near the window and kept looking outside through the glass. When the thickness of darkness seemed to be somewhat reducing, Elaine tiptoed out of the guestroom with her bags pulling behind. She was trying hard not to make the slightest of sound that would wake Cannon up. She stumbled for a few times but balanced herself before kissing the floor and looked at the door of Cannon’s room. It remained closed anyway. He must be sleeping now and before he wakes up, I will be gone. Elaine thought to herself. She sighed as another thought crossed her mind but remembering
Two person were talking as their eyes were glued on a picture from the front page of a newspaper.Cannon and Elaine were standing together with smiling faces...One of the person spoke up, “I think, we made a mistake getting her in the plan.”Another one strongly disagreed, “No. Without her, there was no plan at all.”“But do you think she will be able to do it? You are forgetting that we are talking about Cannon here. He can’t stand lies and betrayals. Who knows it better than us!”“Anyways, Cannon believes Elaine is one us. So there is no way he will let Elaine leave easily. And that is exactly what we want, don’t we?”Hearing this, another person nodded with a smirk, “That’s true.”~•☘•~Elaine got asking Cannon, “What did you do?”, pressing the phone still against her ear.Cannon frowned but didn’t answer her whereas Hina spoke up from the other side of the phone call, “What did I do! Elaine, you are seriously asking me this? You got married to Cannon Henderson the day before yest
Sam got uttering after keeping silence for good few moments, “What if Elaine is innocent, Cannon? What if it’s just them who are playing all these with you? What if...”Cannon left his cabin without letting Sam complete his say.Sam let out a sigh. Cannon's trust had been broken and Sam could feel it’s going to be a very long way now to get him bounce back. ~•☘•~“Ma’am, I can guess it’s your first time working as a model, right?”Though Nancy was getting annoyed at Elaine for her lack of confidence nature, she tried to remain calm.Cannon’s expression was clear to her that it’s not like she would have a say like always to choose another one.It had to be her only and it’s her job to get it working. So, she couldn’t lose control.Elaine just nodded without uttering anything.“Okay. That’s not the problem. You know it’s all about being confident. Before making other believe in you, you have to believe yourself that you can do it.” Nancy said with a smile. Elaine stared at her but kep
