E41

Nathaniel held on for about a year, respecting Irene's mother's wishes to leave them alone. But then he started looking for them again. It was about the time his company faced difficulties. So Eve made him the offer to pull his company off the ground if he would drop all efforts of looking for his daughter. Nathaniel did.

And that was why I would never get along with him. He had chosen his company over his child. I didn't care about his excuses. Nothing in the world would keep me from my child.

The man hadn't even had the guts to tell Irene the whole truth back when she asked why he didn't look for her. Nathaniel was a selfish bastard.

  Leo"So, what do you think?" Lydia asked me as soon as I picked up my phone."About what?" I replied, motioning for Brandon to take the documents I just signed. He nodded and left the office, closing the door behind him. I turned my chair to look through the ground to ceiling glass behind my desk. The city below was busy.4"Ugh! I sent you a video of the venue five minutes ago!" Lydia said.I closed my eyes. "Lydia. You know neither Irene nor I care about the venue. We just want to get married.""You are going to be the death of me! I can't wait for Irene to come back!" she screamed and hung up.I sighed and checked the message she'd sent me. It was a video of yet another wedding venue. This one was outdoors, in what looked like a lush garden. Irene would like it.Except that, unlike

  I see." I stepped closer until I could whisper in his ear, "I don't give a fuck about your excuses, Matt. We both know what's really happening here. But I'm not dealing with you tonight."I pushed past him towards Irene. I would deal with Matt properly, and by the time I was done with him, he would come begging for mercy.1Irene smiled and rose when I reached her. The interpreter looked more than relieved to be spared signing the two women's words. What kind of crap had they been spouting?The two women looked at me with wide eyes. They scrambled to their feet."Oh, Leo! I didn't know you were coming?" one of them said, her name was Elizabeth or Isabella or something like that.I gave her a look and wrapped Irene in a short hug. She might look calm and unaffected, but I knew her enough to read the anger in her face and body. She wa

  Fine, fine!" he rubbed his face, "whatever you want, just... don't do it." "Don't get involved in my life, and I will not get involved in yours." **** **** After Matt was dealt with, I felt much lighter. The next day was a Saturday. I woke up first, like usual. On most days, Irene slept in. She had admitted to me that for years, she could rarely afford to sleep in the mornings with the kind of work that she did. Now that she could work on her own time, she took full advantage of it. Thoughsleeping inwas a relative term. She would never stay in bed past eight thirty. I would make breakfast, and we'd have it together before joining our family in the tennis club. 2

  I kept running.Afraid to turn around I just kept going. Once you start running there is no turning back. Not for me anyway. You may ask yourself what is so terrifying to be running from. Shut this book and run far away as I am if you aren't ready for this. My story is far from the "perfect life". My name is Elena Winters and this is my not so perfect story."Elena get up! Elena! I want breakfast"I opened my eyes to see my 4 year old brother jumping on my bed."Kade, I coming. Okay?"His eyes lit up with happiness as I said those words. He jumped off my bed and ran though my bedroom door.This is how my mornings usually are. My father was a firefighter. He was killed two years ago from trying to save two teenagers from a burning car. All three were killed in the accident. My mother became depressed. She began to heavily drink.

  Are you alright," the man from table one asked."I'm fine. How did you know I was out here?""I didn't. I thought I scared you asking for your number so I was coming to apologize. I'm glad I came now.""Yeah, me too.""So, what was your name again?""Elena.""Well Elena. I promise I am not a stalker. Can I walk you home so I know you won't be attacked again?""I'm sure I can walk home alone. But thank you for your offer.""How about this. I have a personal driver that will give you a ride. I am staying at a hotel across the street so I won't need him.""I will be fine.""At least do it for me saving you.""....Fine""He is right out front," he said grabbing my hand and pulling me towards the

  I decided to walk down the street to the park to watch Kade."Ophf." I said as I fell to the ground.1"I am so sorry. I should watch where I am walking," I told the person I ran into."Elena, we really should stop meeting like this"I looked up and there was Brian Matthews."I would rather we not meet again at all. Now if you will excuse me," I quickly walked around him.3"Now Elena, I know you don't mean that." Brian said as he grabbed my hand."Oh, I do." I yanked my hand back and kept walking."What did I do to make you hate me.""You are just another guy. Just like the rest of them.""I can show you I'm different if you give me a ch

  Brian's POVI walked up to Elena's door and knocked softly.I heard her moving before she finally opened the door after she knew it was safe."Uh... Hi," she said as she bit her lip.I could tell she was nervous but does she have to do the things she does. This girl will be the death of me."Hey. Can I come in?" I asked motioning inside.She nodded softly opening the door wide enough for me to get in."You're house is lovely." I said looking over at her. Her nervousness was slowly fading away. The agitated Elena I seen at the diner was making a comeback."I don't understand why you are even here." She said giving me a harsh tone."We need to talk. I told you." I said leaning back in the chair I was in."You already said that genius."I smirked at

I was going to be late for work!I jumped up and ran to the bathroom through the hall when I ran into something.... Or should I say someone."If you wanted to touch me you could had just asked." Brian said smugly. He was very confident for some reason. "Where are you going anyway?""To work idiot." I said trying to get passed him.He grabbed my arm and said, "hey now. You don't have to work anymore."I looked over at him with a puzzled expression."What do you mean," I said as I yanked my arm from his grasp, "I can not get fired."I quic
