Ely decided to keep what she heard for days now but it ached her she cried last night a lot. This morning she proposed to hangout with Pieper they were out for everything trendy.
“Ely!! Check over here!!” Pieper points out a matching pair of outfits for them both. It was a leather purple and black jacket, mini skirt, mid length boots. It had the black and white set as well. Ely smiled bitterly she tried forgetting what she heard but couldn’t she was there physically but her mind wasn’t and Pieper noticed it but tried cheering her up “c’mon!! photo booth now!!”
Ely nods slowly giving her hand as Pieper dragged her in. Ely finally made her mind to sort it herself.
Hauler’s mansion

Nate noticed Ely’s coldness lately but she wouldn’t tell him anything. Nate remembers him kissing her but did not feel any passion like before. It made him furious to why Ely was reacting that way. Nate was ruffling Nathan’s hair, he was ready for school. Nate slowly sipped his coffee. All his thoughts on Ely, she left without telling him to where to. He breath out tiredly. Nate just recovered and had to deal with Ely’s mood swings.
“hah! Women”
he mumbles as Yan who just entered pats his shoulder
” We’re two man. I don’t understand them either!”
Yan shook his head picking up a toast munching on it as he waves at Nathan who ignores him
” What the-”
He scoffs Son and father were so alike he thought. ” Mhm”
Nate did not feel the urge to reply after all he had a pile of work to get to, he strides to his car with Nathan’s hand in his. He was going to his company accompanied by Yan and he was slightly annoyed. Yan dared not to annoy him further.

” Get out!!”
Dulcan chased a few girls of his office from the sight of it most of them were for interviews but all tried getting his attention instead.
“All you do is spend my money!”
Dulcan shouts rubbing his head. He was like an empty shell waiting to be hosted. Dulcan had a series of headaches lately and mood swings.
” Sir the documents are ready”
Dulcan seemed to be somewhere else his eyes full of tenderness
” Ely Ely??”
He was suddenly calm as he pats the shoulder of his man. Dulcan yearned to see Ely and convince her he was desperate as he sits on his chair tapping his fingers to the side he was thinking off finally picking his pen to work. His arm was still damaged so he couldn’t use it.

Ely had light makeup on, few jewelries, a short black tight fitting gown, Ely was wearing her heels all decided as Pieper watched her with worry.
” Ely are you sure about this?”
Ely was doing her hair by the mirror, she had made up her mind and nods picking uer bag
” I’ll be fine don’t worry”
Pieper sighs taking Ely in her arms tightly
” Anything happens you call me immediately promise?!”
Pieper watched Ely leave mumbling
“Sorry but I have to do this”
Piper quickly takes out her phone calling Sasha so Nate gets informed by Yan.
IJ’s Ltd 🏢
***
Nate was working on his tablet and laptop. That evening Nate skipped his meals and tried burying himself to work so he won’t get mad. He was scary today and his workers did not dare step on his foot. His eyes scotched to his screen. Nate tried ignoring his worries but called Mr James every two hours to verify if Ely was home but she wasn’t on the other side he was informed Adam had a one on one discussion with Ely. He wondered what it was all about. Yan batched in out of breath as Nate slowly glances at him lifting his brow “what?” He asks coldly as Yan quietly approached him
“It’s Ely…”
Nate who seemed unfazed till now stood up rapidly wanting to know more.
Dulcan’s Villa

“Brrr” Ely rubs her arms, the weather was cold and streets calm she texted Pieper at her arrival as she pauses the events of her last visit flashing in her mind. Ely bites her lip before advancing. She was finally at the door step , she breathes out mumbling ” just a little longer”
Lifting her hand to the door bell, Ely presses it immediately her hand went down it was grabbed harshly. Ely smiles as Nate turns her around to face him, he was furious
“what do you think you’re doing!!?”
Ely retracts her hand from his not saying a word. Both heads turning at the door opening. There emerged Dulcan, Nate pulls Ely by the waist to his chest, imposing himself dangerously not letting go st her struggles, Dulcan was excited to see Ely his cheeks reddened at her sight, viens popping on Nate’s forehead. The sound of the wind, dead leafs,and two men engaged in a glare contest.
