Episode 3: Behind The Closed Door (I)
They straight away drove to Blackwood's Penthouse which was 10-15 km away from the main city
Herdis(ML's secretary)
*opens the door
Master, Madam, please enter...
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
*still grabbing her shoulder
The penthouse suite, with its seemingly wide views of the city, felt like a gilded cage.
Eleanor Gray
*scans the house, disappointed
(in mind)
After ruining us, they've already built such magnificent assets
Herdis(ML's secretary)
*interrupts
Master, Madam's belongings have been placed in the room next to yours as instructed by you
Eleanor Gray
My belongings?ー
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
*signals Herdis
Alright you may go now
Herdis(ML's secretary)
*bows
Eleanor Gray
What are my belongings doing in the room next to yours? ー
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
*rubs his thumb on her shoulder gently, smirks
Why, were you expecting it to be put together with my stuffs in my room?
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
You dream big, Eleanorー
Eleanor whirled with rage shrugs his arm off and pushes Eisen back which makes him stumble a little
Eleanor Gray
Don't you dare think that I'm here playing the role of your "wife" willingly Mr. Blackwood!
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
Oh? Is it?
*tightens his gloves, fixes his attire; cold look
Eleanor Gray
This might be YOUR GAME but do not forget that I, too, HAVE MY OWN PLANS!
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
And what could it be little Miss Gray?
Eleanor Gray
*brows furrows in fury
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
Justice? Revenge? or...
*steps closer towards Eleanor
Eleanor Gray
*glares at him
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
Is it LOVE? ー
A loud sharp sound of a slap rung through the ears of both of them and throughout the empty rooms and hall of the penthouse
Eleanor Gray
*cold look; slapped Eisen
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
*surprised ; hold his slapped cheek
Eleanor Gray
Now listen carefully , if you think you can make me feel overwhelmed by your presence then you're wrong Eisen!
Eleanor Gray
*enraged
I know you've some motive behind you proposing this particular partnership, and mark it, SO DO I!
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
*glares coldly at Eleanor
Eleanor Gray
God d*mned hell YEAH I DO!
Eleanor Gray
So pray, to your god or to your devil, pray so f*cking hard that I don't catch you at your hip!
Eleanor Gray
Cause if I do..
*laughs
I'm no archangel Gabrielle to show mercy to you...
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
... Is it? Then, sir preacher, we'll be eagerly waiting for that day to come
*turns back and leaves for his room
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
*waves
Help yourself up and do the needful, no need to serve the wedding night
Eisen Black Wood(ML)
I don't take spicy food for dinner
*leaves
Eleanor Gray
*standing downstairs; holding back her tears
He still has a broken humour
Eleanor Gray
God...
*sighs; tired; walks upstairs towards her room
