Eleanor's POVBack in London, I worked as a secretary in Lawrence's startup, aiding his work.Well, I didn't know the jobs as a secretary, since I neither majored in secretary in college nor had that work before.Mayer, Lawrence's assistant, had seen me before in the company in Bristol, and I was found by Lawrence because of him.Before entering the company, I made an agreement with Lawrence that I didn't want anyone in the company to notice our relationship, and he agreed, arranging Mayer for me. After all, if someone knew, it might cause some trouble.With a pretty face, the rich guy Lawrence was the popular one in the entire company, and many women loved him. "Did you see that? Boss is back!", they said.I was assigned to work in a cubicle in the office by Mayer, taking charge of the documents and files of Lawrence. It wasn't a hard job. Around me were some of my colleagues, including two young girls, who seemed very interested in Lawrence, since they would excite by the return of
Eleanor's POVMaybe it was because of the injury, I felt something was wrong with Lawrence. Even more wrong, why did he need to resist the smell of my body, and in that forest, why did Lawrence seem to recover a lot from his injuries after doing sex with me?Haven't done anything further, we heard the footsteps coming from outside the office. Was it Mayer? Maybe not, it belonged to a woman, since the sound of high heels was approaching.There was a knock at the door, "Brother, are you there?" Hearing Stella's voice, I was startled and hurried to look at Lawrence, noticing his eyes were filled with fear."May I come in?" Stella asked again. I looked into his eyes, begging him to find the solution. After all, if Stella found me here, there would be big trouble. What the hell, on my first day at work, I met Stella and was stuck in Lawrence's office.After putting his finger on my lips to keep me quiet, Mayer run to the door and stopped Stella, "Mrs. Stella, you can't get in."Stella soun
Eleanor's POVI already knew what I was going to face. I Should have gotten used to it, right? Lawrence was always so violent and unreasonable, and he wanted to take my body, and I couldn't resist.Laying in his bed and staring at the chandelier on the ceiling, my tears dropped. Somehow, I feel bad, no matter it was for Logan or myself. Where's Logan? Did he be killed by Lawrence? A bad feeling came to my mind: maybe Lawrence contacted Logan in disguise of me, took him to a remote place, and took his life.Logan still worried about me before he died, and he was subjected to such a risk for me. Logan had loved me sincerely, although he had cheated on me. Because of Stella, I couldn't stay with him. But I didn't hate him, after all, he was the man, I once loved, even if I lost my feeling for him. I didn't want to see him die in misery.But for now, I had lost the right to care about him. I couldn't get rid of my suffering. I was living in pain every day. Maybe death was a relief. But Lu
Eleanor's POVWhen Logan called over, I looked at Lawrence, whose face was very bad. I apologized to him, "Sorry, I just want him to get back to Stella as soon as possible. I don't expect him to guess it all."After a silence, Lawrence looked at me, and said, "Give me your phone." With hesitation, I gave back my phone. Lawrence put Logan on speaker."Eleanor? Is that Eleanor? Where are you right now?" That was Logan."Maybe I should ask where you are," Lawrence answered ironically.Having heard the voice from Lawrence, Logan stuck in silence before answering it, "Why do you have Eleanor's phone?"Lawrence laughed satirically, "You know the answer, don't you?"Logan was nervous, "Did you do something wrong on Eleanor? Listen, you can come at me, but don't hurt Eleanor!"Lawrence still laughed, "You're so touching, Logan. However, what can you do? Maybe you should get to back Stella, the person you should care about the most, instead of spending your time staring at someone else's wife.
Eleanor's POVWalking out of Lawrence's office, my colleagues were in the hallway for delivering some documents to Lawrence. When they saw me, they were stunned, followed by a look of disbelief. Only then did I realize that my clothes had just been unbuttoned and torn apart by Lawrence amid a struggle. Then I quickly covered the inappropriate part of my body, lowered my head, and run away.Instead of going back to work, I went to the bathroom. I looked so bad in the mirror, my hair was messy, my eyes were red and swollen, and my clothes were messy. If I was seen by my colleagues, they would spread my rumors. Before walking into the office, I straightened my clothes and hair and calmed down for a little while.When I stepped out of the bathroom, I heard the voice of my colleagues talking about me, "The girl who just came to our company had just been called to the boss's office." "I had just seen her in the hallway, her clothes undressed, and she seemed to have cried. I thought that so
Stella's POVI left Lawrence's company with a feeling in my heart.He must have been keeping something back from me, but he didn't want me to know yet.I recalled his injury before. In that hospital, I heard from a nurse that he had married. But Lawrence explained that the woman was a neighbor who sent him to the hospital, after seeing him hurt. At that time, I have no suspicion that he was lying to me. After all, I thought he still loved me.To be honest, it was a good thing that Lawrence was able to give up his love for me and fell in love with someone else. The only person I loved was Logan. Thus, I couldn't pretend to love Lawrence. But, anyway, I hoped Lawrence could be happy.Lawrence and I grew up together. After our parents' death, we had depended on each other, and Lawrence regarded me as the most important person in his heart. In fact, after knowing Lawrence liked me, in my heart, I was agitated and resisted for his love. During college, I even thought of making my best fr
Stella's POVLogan had come back, living in the office right now. When I got the news, I was so ecstatic, because I knew I could finally see him.It was Logan's colleague who told me the news. He had seen my looking for Logan when I went to the company, so he had reserved his phone number before he left. He said that Logan's office door was open, and in the morning, some colleagues had even seen Logan getting out of his car and pulling his suitcase into the office. I hurried to Logan's company, heading directly to his office.At that time, Logan was packing. When he saw me, he didn't seem surprised at all. Now he was overtly different from before. In the past, he would be gentle and kind to me, although he never stepped forward to hug me and kiss me passionately like the husbands of other wives. But now, he would rather ignore me.I found it ridiculous that I had no idea of my husband's schedule, and when he came back to London from other places, he was not willing to go back to our
Stella's POVWhen I woke up again, I found myself lying in the hospital.The smell of liquid medicine filled all around. I was lying in my hospital bed, looking at the dazzling white ceiling, but my consciousness still failed to fully recover.My hand was in infusion. Perhaps because of the drug, my mental state was not very good. I had been drowsy, and I vaguely remembered many things.I thought of my first meeting with Logan. At that time, although he was a beta, he was so dazzling and outstanding, even in front of the powerful Alpha. He was gentlemanlike, and knew how to take care of the weak. When I met him for the first time, I knew that I must marry him.Perhaps this was the defect of being an Alpha. We were always full of confidence in ourselves. Even if we had the same face as human beings, we couldn't hide our inner predatory desire as a beast. Just like me to Logan, I was bound to win, but I had never thought about whether Logan himself was really willing to marry me.As lon
