Love Beyond Control

Ella apologised in tears and went looking for a rag. Upon arrival, she quietly wiped the water on the floor and left. She later came back and just when everyone thought she was bringing coffee, she entered without any coffee gently holding her burnt hand with the other hand. When she entered the office, she took a few steps towards Elion before explaining with a pained voice.

“Young Master Elion, I only used what was available here. The ingredients I used to make coffee for my husband are very different from the ingredients available here.”

“Then get them ready.” Replied Williams.

As if she was Whispering.

“I don’t have money sir.”

“Discuss that with The Butler when you get back home.” Said Elion while waving his hand for her to leave.

“Elion, what do you mean by when she gets back home, she should discuss it with The Butler? Does she leave with you now?”

Asked Liza like a spoiled child and Ella who was already by the door suddenly stopped and turned to face Liza.

“Liza, should I take permission from you before employing my domestic staff?”

Asked Elion in a calm but angry tone and Ella quietly left the meeting room.

When she was done with the company, she left and was hurrying back home on foot. When she arrived at The Amen Estate, there was a heavy rain coming and since there was no place she could hide from the rain, she started running very fast so as to avoid the rain. Just then, a black Rolls Royce sped past and the people inside didn’t stop to help her.

Elion Copper looked at the lady running at the highest speed through the window and didn’t help her. When they arrived at the villa, he changed his clothes and stood in the corridor outside sipping his wine. It was then that Ella could be seen shivering in with her hands crossed over her chest and clinging onto her neck. Looking at the drenched lady, Elion felt a mild pain in his heart but waved it away when he suddenly told himself that she deserves it. That evening in a restaurant, Liza and Maya were busy plotting how to end Ella’s life gradually.

“I have a very good idea.” Said Maya wickedly.

“And what’s that?” Liza asked in full anticipation.

“Since Master Elion will do just anything to please you, let’s use that weakness of his to make Ella hate him so that there will be a solid wall between them and with that, they will never fall for each other.” Maya explained elegantly.

“How do we achieve that?” Asked Liza.

“It’s very simple, we can convince his family doctor and you will fake to be sick and you can even collapse and when they get you to the hospital, the doctor should tell him you need an urgent kidney transplant and since I will be there, I will quickly suggest Ella as the donor and when you become conscious, you will stand on my words as well.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“That sounds great but what will we do with the kidney?” Liza asked

“Sell it of course. We will sell it.” Said Maya evilly.

Liza smiled in satisfaction and lifted his wine glass as the two of them exchanged a toast.

Elion was busy in his study when Liza knocked and entered.

“What are you still doing here? It’s late already.” Elion asked with eyes fixed on the document in front of him.

“Why has it suddenly become a problem for me to visit you? Is it because of that cleaner?”

Liza asked as she approached him.

“Liza, there’s nothing between me and the cleaner just as there’s nothing between us. You have made everyone believe we are engaged.”

Elion explained with a frown.

With so much disappointment, Liza responded calmly.

“But we can clear the rumours at any time you want. It’s not that difficult. By the way, I haven’t given anyone that impression. We grew up together Elion, so it’s normal for people to think that we are childhood sweethearts.”

Liza said, emphasising the words childhood sweethearts. While she was still talking, she suddenly shouted and collapsed.

Elion ran to her and picked her up like a child and hurried downstairs as he called The Butler to give Henry and the family doctor a call. He carefully laid her on the backseat in his Rolls Royce and took the driver’s seat. He was at a very high speed and those he by passed on his way thought it should be someone that wants to commit suicide or someone that has stolen something and is running away from the police. In less than no time, he arrived at the hospital and Henry and the doctor were already waiting for them. The nurses quickly took her from the car and laid her on the stretcher and took her into the emergency unit followed by the doctor. After 20 minutes, the door suddenly opened and Elion and Henry looked at the door with a lot of expectations and the doctor explained professionally.

“She is conscious now but you need to keep an eye on her all the time. You know she has been battling with kidney failure yet you didn’t…”

“Kidney failure?”

Elion and Henry asked at the same time looking at each other in confusion.

“Yes. Were you not aware?” The doctor asked, pretending to be surprised.

“I have never known anything like that. I knew she was one hundred percent healthy.”

Elion explained still shocked.

“You can go in now. She’s stable for now although we need an urgent kidney transplant.”

The doctor said, causing Elion and Henry to suddenly come to a halt and look at him.

“We can’t just depend on dialysis Master Elion. To ensure that she’s completely out of danger, we need to do a kidney transplant as soon as possible.”

The doctor continued with his explanations.

After carefully listening to the doctor, he went into the ward followed by Henry. As soon as Liza saw him, she brought forth her acting skills. She was wailing and crying non-stop.

“Elion, I don’t want to die, please help me. Please Elion, I don’t want to die.”

“Why didn’t you tell me when it was diagnosed?”

Elion asked with so much concern.

“I didn’t want to bother you and I thought it would get better.”

Liza explained in tears.

“Doctor, is there any donor you know of?”

Elion asked.

“We just have to make findings.”

The doctor assured.

“Elion, I confided in a friend and showed her my results and she told me that her sister could be a donor.” Liza explained.

“Then that will be good. If they need money, we can give them the money. Can you call your friend to come over with her sister?”

Elion asked without any hesitation.

“Elion, her sister is someone you know.”

Liza responded.

“It doesn’t matter, all we need now is for you to stay alive and in good health.” Elion assured her

“Who is she, Miss Liza?” Henry asked.

“It’s, actually she is…”

“Liza it’s your life we are talking about so speak up.”

The doctor warned.

“Actually, the lady in question is El, El, Ella.”

“What?” Elion and Henry asked at once looking at each other in disbelief.
