30: And She Didn't Know A Thing

Chapter 30And She Didn't Know A ThingElena (Flashback_six months ago)My head pounded in rhythmic beats that throbbed my senses as I slowly came to. I blinked my eyes, trying to adjust my eyes to the light. Where was I? I looked up at the white ceiling, not moving. I couldn't even move if I wanted to, my entire body felt like it was weighed out of lead and my mind couldn't urge my body to move. “Administer… first dose… second… fourth…” I heard faint voices from around me but I could hardly keep my eyes open, talk more of to see who it was. A sudden wave of exhaustion crashed into me and my vision blurred as I sank into darkness again. I don't know how long I was unconscious, I drifted in and out of consciousness, never staying too long on one side. I heard faint voices of people time and time again but I couldn't say a word, I was like an onlooker, watching as events passed. Except I wasn't watching any events, just a white ceiling. I groaned as I stirred, this time sensati

31: Missing Pieces

Chapter 31 Missing Pieces Elena (Flashback_Six months ago) “Lily… that's your daughter's name,” the doctor's words echoed repeatedly in my head. I had a daughter? The thought felt strange in my mind yet it also felt dear to me. Lily. It felt so familiar, so warm, as if it had always been a part of me. Was she really my daughter? “Your memory loss is most likely caused by the stress and trauma induced by the accident,” the doctor stared at me steadily. “It's not unusual,” he added, adjusting his stethoscope. “ We’ll continue to monitor your condition, and make sure you're alright.” Alright? The thought felt alien to me. I'd lost my whole memory, having no recollection of who I was, the things I liked and disliked. I definitely wasn't alright. I opened my mouth, wanting to ask more questions but the door opened at that moment, drawing my attention. Two people walked in—a man and a woman. They were both young but just based on appearance I felt the woman looked cl

32: Past And Present

Chapter 32Past And PresentElena(Flashback_Six Months ago)The sun cast a warm golden glow on us as we walked out of the hospital. “That's our car,” Jenna pointed out a black sedan that was parked out front. I nodded and we headed towards it and everyone got aboard. Lily went silent after we left the hospital, I still felt pangs of pain whenever I recalled her teary eyes as she'd sobbed about not being allowed to see me. Jenna occasionally threw glances at me but she didn't say much, content to just hum along to the song playing. Pascal too was silent, he'd put a headphone on and was transfixed with his phone. “Pascal,” Jenna nudged him and slowly ground the car to a halt. “We're here,” she nodded outside. I read the words on the signpost, ‘Subway Station’ We were taking a train ride? I wondered curiously. My curiosity didn't have to last long as Pascal pushed the door open and stepped out. “Study hard, you hear me?” Jenna called out after him. “And don't forget to call m

33: Unraveling Schemes

Chapter 33Unraveling SchemesDamien(Flashback_Six months ago) The day had started well enough, I'd just come out of the shower, the cold stillness of the house another Stark remainder of Elena's absence. Forget it, I snapped at myself in self reproach. She was gone and that was it. End of story.I'd just worn my trousers when my cell phone beeped suddenly, snapping me to the present. My eyes narrowed when I saw Clara's name flashing on the screen. Clara never called me if it wasn't important, what was so important she couldn't wait for me to get to the office first? I wondered, glancing at the clock. “There's an emergency, Sir,” Clara's voice was on edge and her words instantly made my nerves tense. “What happened?” I demanded, I put the phone on speaker and sped up my dressing. “The stocks we launched just last week are plummeting, and…” Clara hesitated, “There's something you need to deal with right here.” I felt a ball of ice freeze up my insides. “I’ll be there in twe

34: The Place Where Paths Diverged

Chapter 34The Place Where Paths DivergedDamienJane's proposal weighed on my mind all through the day, even when I was driving back home. The chance of going to manage her company wasn't a chance many would get. Harrington Enterprises had since become a renowned and well placed company in the business world. Jane had steered away from publicity so not much was known about her, she was hardly even seen. Her proposal would mean a fresh start for next but I couldn't shake off the feeling that accepting her proposal felt like I was surrendering. What would Father say? I wondered, an image of Father's stoic face appeared in my head. He'd call me a coward I thought, sighing slowly.I was absent minded when I got home, mechanically taking off my clothes and taking a shower before I changed into something more comfortable.I'd just plopped down on a couch in the living room when my cell phone rang, breaking the silence. “Hello?” I spoke slowly, my voice flat. “Hello sir,” a voice spo

35: Nervous Energy

Chapter 35Nervous EnergyElena (Present_Time) This wasn’t happening I thought, nearly staggering. It couldn’t be. Only that, it was. “You're joking right?” I whispered, still shocked at Damien's words. “Quite the contrary, I'm not,” Damien smiled but the smile didn't reach his eyes. “Me?” I finally managed, my voice barely above a whisper. The weight of the situation seemed to dawn on me afresh. “I… I thought—”“Enough, Elena,” Damien interrupted me. He glanced at his watch, “No one knows the proposal better than you. It's time,” Damien rose to his feet. My heart lurched in my chest and I squeezed my hands together as nervousness wreaked havoc in my system. ,“Calm down Elena,” Damien paused in front of me and his calm steady eyes met mine, searching. Could I even calm down? Could I? My pulse quickened and a ball of panic loosened in my belly. I was going to present the proposal before the whole board, a few external supervisors, and their opinions could make or break the

36: The CEO's Pet

Chapter 36The CEO's PetElena The next day at work felt different from the moment I set foot in the company, the stares from the other employees felt different. They saw me back then, but I felt like they were really seeing me now. I'd been given a new office, on Damien's orders. Till now I couldn't believe he'd made me his personal assistant for the Houston project. Easy now, Elena, I warned myself. I had to stay alert at all times, working in such close proximity with Damien was never going to be an easy thing. All this was because he still believed I'd lost my memory, one wrong move and everything would be gone.I unpacked my bag, taking out the unfinished revised proposal I'd worked on all night. Damien hadn't selected who the new members of the team would be so for now I was doing all the work. I'd painstakingly gone through every single text, every single figure in the proposal looking for any loopholes. I assumed Damien would make me present the revised part to the boa

37: He's A Savage

Chapter 37 He's A SavageElena My mind was a whirlpool of emotions by the time I arrived at Mike Lipton’s office. His office was an old high-rise building just off the road leading towards Chinatown. The elevator was out of order so I was forced to use the stairs. By the time I arrived at the office on the sixth floor I was breathing hard and I could feel my shirt sticking to my back. What kind of investor couldn't invest in a functioning elevator? I grumbled under my breath. I recognized his assistant who rose to her feet as I approached. “I'd like to see Mr. Mike please,” I went straight to the point. “Well,” she hesitated, unsure if she was going to speak. “Is Mr. Mike not in?” I asked, glancing at my watch, and frustration filled me. “He is, it's—” “I have an appointment with him,” I frowned, wondering why she'd kept on prattling. “Okay,

38: A Different Shade Of Him

Chapter 38 A Different Shade Of Him Elena My heart was in my throat when the door slammed open with a force that rattled the walls. “Do you want to die?” Damien's roar shook the walls as he strode in, his expression changed drastically when he spotted us through the open bathroom door. Before I could blink he'd crossed the room and jerked Mike away from me. “Get your hands off—” Mike struggled to get rid of Damien's grip but his words were cut short as Damien punched him in the face. “Damn you,” Damien's moves were nothing like an inexperienced fighter, his every move was aimed at the vitals. Mike didn't stand a chance, within moments he was beaten to a pulp. But Damien didn't stop. “Damien stop,” I yelled, trying to hold his hands but it was as if he'd been possessed, his blows were unceasing. Mike had stopped struggling, his entire face was bloody. He looked like he might breathe his last at any moment. “Damien,” I yelled, my face wet with tears. It was then th

39: Conflicted Hearts

Chapter 39Conflicted HeartsElena“Wait, you mean he actually did that?” Jenna's voice was filled with disbelief at my words. “He cut off ties with the guy? That's huge,” Jenna's surprise mirrored mine. “I know,” I said, my mind still at a standstill since I'd seen the news all over TV. “Are you okay, Elena?” Jenna asked, lowering her voice. “Like are you really okay? How do you feel?” “I…” I hesitated, instantly pressing down some memories that threatened to rear their ugly head. “I'm better,” I finally said, sinking into the couch. Jenna's silence didn't feel believable, “I was really worried, Elena,” she whispered. “And what's going on between you and your boss?” Jenna asked. “He's doing an awful lot for you, it's crazy.” “Dami— I mean, he's like that,” I said. An image of Damien beating the shit out of Mike appeared in my head. “Is something going on between you two?” Jenna asked carefully. “I—” the words I'd been about to say lodged in my throat and I paused.
