Curiousity peeked in everyone's eyes, their eyes sparked with interest as they all stared at Elliot and Andrew like they were aliens. They all gathered together still staring at the duo. Very low chatterings were heard by some women.Mr Arnold cleared his throat significantly, "Since you all know, Mr Harrison is now too old to run this company, he decided to hand it over to his son." Mr Arnold said, then pointed at Elliot, "Everyone, meet Mr Elliot Harrison. He will be taking over now.""He had a son? How could this wretched man be his son and become our boss?" A young woman's voice resounded lowly among the crowd, though it was a murmur, unfortunately, it was unknowingly loud enough for everyone including Elliot to hear.Elliot's face turned dark, he was cold and his face was straight with nothing but brutality, he could yank this woman's hair If he wanted to.His mouth twitched, "It is none of your business if he was my father or not." He said, all eyes were on him but he continued
"Can we meet for a drink? I'm so exhausted that I need someone to help me with my problems now." His heart leapt for joy, now she was taking him seriously, unlike before."Okay." He answered, trying not to sound too excited.~~~Hannah stumped her leg carefully on the ground at the restaurant, she was waiting anxiously for Elliot, but he was nowhere to be found."Where is he?" She roared under her breath, her eyes peeking at every side of the room, especially the doors.She gazed at everyone who entered the restaurant thinking it was Elliot.Beads of sweat formed around her head, once again. when she needed him, he was nowhere to be found.Just then, the door opened gently and it was Elliot. Hannah stared at him weirdly, he looked a little bit different than before. His jeans trousers were neatly ironed, his white shirt sparkled neatly, and his shoes were dazzling black and well cleaned.She kept on staring at him a bit weirdly, "What is going on?" She muttered."Was this the Elliot
"Can we go now, I have some other things to do." Hannah said, picking her bag up.Elliot nodded slightly while calling out, "Waiter,"Hannah waved her card up in the air, "I'll pay as usual." "Oh no, I got it this time. You've been paying for quite some time now, this time, I'll pay."Hannah's eyes widened in shock, "What was going on? This was the first time in a few years that he wanted to pay for their food.""What is going on that I don't know about?" She murmured, then she looked up at Elliot and spoke, "Elliot, is everything okay?"Elliot's heart skipped a beat, why was she curious about what's happening, this was getting awkward for both of them.Elliot stared into thin air, until he was jolted from his day dream by Hannah, "Elliot," She called out curiously. "What's wrong with you lately?" Hannah couldn't keep in her curiosity any longer, this was beginning to get weird, even for her. How did an unknown young man come from nowhere and call him his Young Master, then all of a
Elliot slumped on the chair tiredly, he faced Andrew, "Is there anymore for today?" He asked. Elliot could only be himself in the presence of Andrew and Hannah. "Yes, you have two more conference meetings for the day, then we can get some food and head home."Elliot sighed, but then, his phone vibrated. Curiosity peeked at him when he saw the doctor's contact on his phone."Hello?" "Mr.Harrison, long time, no see. How have you been?" The doctor chuckled slightly. "It's been good," Elliot quickly chipped in and continued, "Anything wrong that you called?""Oh yes," He sounded as if he just remembered his reason for calling, "Your Nana keeps on repeating your name for the past few hours."Elliot's brow creased in confusion, "My name?" He asked again."Yes, yes" He repeated, then cleared his throat and continued, "I think you need to visit her to see what's happening." The doctor added.A frown landed on his face, "What could possibly be wrong with his Nana?" He thought to himself. H
Elliot ignored his question, "I'm taking my Nana home today, hope that's okay?" He asked.The doctor waved his hands up in the air, "I was hoping you'd ask. Yes of course, she has fully recovered after the surgery, so she's free to go home.""Alright," Elliot held her hands gently, pulling her out of the bed.They walked out gently, Elliot faced Andrew who already dozed off on the chair. "Andrew," He yelled, "Let's go."Nana looked at Andrew suspiciously, her eyes scrutinized the more as she looked at his every step elegantly in front of them."Who is he?" She finally spoke out, pointing at Andrew.Elliot hugged his Nana, "Sooner, I'll introduce you to him, please keep calm." From the very start, his Nana was very inquisitive, she will dig into one's life if you really want to be someone close to Elliot, she cherished Elliot so much, that she didn't allowed anything horrible to happen to him.Elliot thought on how he would tell his Nana everything about him owning a company and being
"Of course Nana, I just answered that question for the third time now," He said with a hint of mockery.Her legs were wobbly, her brain was already beginning to hurt a little bit. This was just too much surprises in one day for her.She needed to sit down or she could collapse. Noticing her plight, Elliot led her to the nearest couch in which she sat.As soon as she sat, the chairs were extra bouncy than the ones at the hospital, the texture was soft and of amazing quality. She looked up at Elliot slowly, "Elliot, how did all of this happen?" She asked him, her face full of curiosity.Elliot signaled to both Andrew and the Driver to excuse them, "Excuse us." He commanded straightforward and they nodded in compliance. "Nana, I've never told you my past, right?" The first word came out from his mouth, his heart panged. He has never told anyone including his Nana about his past. He couldn't get himself to talk about his past for this whole years, but now he was ready. Ready to talk ab
He nodded gently. She sniffed in and exhaled. Elliot felt the weight he has been keeping in himself for years now has been lifted since he told someone, he finally had the heart to tell someone about his trauma and it felt nice. To him, he was a young adult who has passed though quadruple of what he age mates has passed through."Bu-But that doesn't explain how you got this place?" She managed to put those sentences together. Though this wasn't the perfect timing to ask this, she was still curious. "Do you mean this house and wealth?" He asked, his brows creasing at her.She nodded, her eyes fixated at him."Father." He said that one word that sent chills down to both his spine and his Nana's.Nana's eyes widened in shock, "You mean your father?" She repeated, staring at Elliot who just stood there transfixed. Elliot nodded slightly, not uttering a single word. "And you accepted all this out of greed, Elliot?" She murmured. Her head was beginning to get dizzy enough for her healt
She was shocked, she had never asked Elliot where he found the money for her surgery, and now that she forced him to, she was sorry for him.She felt like she was a burden to him. She made him do things that he didn't want to do.She walked towards him slowly, her hands stretching towards him, slouching him gently. "Elliot always had a rough life since childhood." She thought inwardly and continued, "And half of it was her fault.""Hey Elliot," She called out gently, she needed to reason with him, that was why she was his Nana."I completely understand why you made that decision. It's best known for your own reasons. I'm not angry at you anymore."Ignoring what she said, He sniffed in, "Very early in the morning, even the cold weather won't stop me, I would deliver packages to every door in almost half of the city. I would cry and pray when I would get to enjoy or even see life how others does." Then he pointed at the house, "And this, this was the slightest chance I had to accomplis
