Love Beyond Control

As though Ella meant nothing, Elion didn’t even give her a glance. Ella was wailing as though she had met her end. When Liza was finally satisfied, she let go of Ella’s hand and asked the guards to let go of her as well. As soon as they let go of Ella, she ran at a very high speed out of the living room and ran towards the swimming pool. As she got closer to the pool, she fell into it with all her might. Elion, who was standing at the balcony, witnessed everything. He felt pithy for her and didn’t understand why he was sympathising with her instead of hating her. After waiting in the water for some minutes, Ella finally got out of the pool only to meet Liza standing like the owner of the villa.

Liza bounced towards Ella with so much resentment. Elion who witnessed everything said nothing to Liza nor stopped her. He was just busy sipping his wine as though he was being entertained by the torture of Ella.

“Cleaner, how dare you get into this pool with this smelly body of yours? How dare you Ella? Now you are going to go in there, drain all the water and disinfect it.” After passing her orders profusely, she left and bounced back into the house and joined Elion at the balcony upstairs and the two of them watched Ella toiling up and down.

Ella had been asked to use a bucket to drain all the water from the pool so she got a bucket, and carried the water from the pool and emptied it out of the gate. Her right hand was burnt and she could only depend on her left hand for the job. In a twinkle of an eye, four hours had passed already and Ella was yet to empty the pool and before she knew it, it was past 10:00 PM already meaning it was time for her to start doing her house chores. Not knowing exactly what to do, she finally decided to leave the pool and do her house chores. If not, she will be in great trouble the next day. After she did all the chores, she finally left the villa and staggered to the company as if she was almost drunk. When she got to the company, everyone ran away from her due to the manner at which her right hand was. It was completely peeled off and Ella’s eyes were very swollen since she hadn’t slept the whole night.

Looking at her appearance, one will think she was going to die the next minute because she was looking very weak and tired because she hadn’t eaten anything for two days. Just when she was done cleaning and was about to take a rest, Liza suddenly dragged her unexpectedly and she almost lose guard. Before she could balance herself, she was mercilessly dragged by Liza by her hair to Elion’s office.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Why did you bring her here?” Asked Elion who hadn’t seen Ella’s burnt hand and so, he continued talking coldly. “You should deal with her by yourself. Whatever you want to do with her, just do it.” Elion said without looking at the two ladies and Just then, Maya knocked and entered and as soon as she greeted Elion in a very seductive manner, she turned to Liza and greeted her as well before looking at Ella with so much disgust.

“Ella, will you always cause trouble? When will you stop?”

Liza who became more disgusted soon pushed Ella with force and she fell hitting her burnt hand on the floor which caused her to cry out in pain like a woman in labour who was giving her last push. Elion was caught off guard and quickly looked towards Ella only to see the horribly burnt hand and he was left speechless because he didn’t believe Liza could have the heart to treat another lady in that manner.

“Ella, your hand…” As soon as Elion was about to ask Ella what happened to her hand, he suddenly turned towards Liza and, the cries of Ella the previous day when the act was being committed came fresh in his mind and he regretted why he didn’t intervene. He tried to brush off the thoughts but the memories occupied his mind completely.

“Master Elion, please help me, please stop her, I will die soon if she continues. Please sir, it hurts. Please help me. Please help me.”

These words kept ringing in Elion’s mind and he turned towards Liza in a very angry manner.

“Liza, how can you be this heartless? Where did you even get the heart to burn someone to this degree?”

“Elion, why are you angry? Aren’t you supposed to thank me for always standing up for you and watching your back? By the way, didn’t you burn her first?” Liza was talking uncontrollably in tears as she was so angry that Elion was mad at her instead of thanking her. As soon as Liza mentioned the fact that Elion burnt Ella first, the moments of the previous day when Elion poured a cup of hot coffee on Ella’s right hand came afresh in his mind.

“Master Elion, thank you for granting me an audience. Sir, I have something that has been bothering me for a very long time. Actually, I have a strong feeling that Liza didn’t undergo any kidney transplant.”

“Can you repeat what you just said?” Elion requested in boiling anger.

“Master Elion, I have a strong feeling that she didn’t have a kidney transplant…” Ella was still talking when Elion poured the hot coffee on her hand causing it to burn instantly. Ella held her hand and cried out in pain.

Under the watchful eyes of Liza and Maya, Elion walked towards Ella who was still lying on the floor while crying like a baby. Elion tried to help her stand on her feet but what Ella said next stunned him to the core and at the same time, it left a deep wound in his heart.

“Master Elion, please sir, I don’t want to stand. I want to see my husband. Please sir, take me to my husband. I want to tell him that I’m innocent of all the accusations so that he can accept me again. I want to have just at least one person in this world that accepts me. I just want him to know I’m innocent so that he can accept me. I just want someone to love me. I just want to feel loved.” Ella said all these to the hearing of Henry who just came into The President’s office with a pile of papers. Hearing these words, Henry and Elion exchanged meaningful glances while Maya tried to silently calm Liza who was looking at Ella and Elion with so much rage.
