Chapter 50
The next day at 3 pm., Ellinor rolled up to the agreed–upon café.
It was a humble yet classy joint, eerily quiet on the inside.
Just a couple seemingly on a date and a bespectacled guy bustling away were the only other patrons
in sight.
Ellinor picked a random spot, ordered herself a cup of coffee and a dessert, and started people
watching as she enjoyed her treats
The pair appeared to be having a date, asking each other about their preferences, nothing suspicious
about them.
The bespectacled guy was also constantly hammering away at his laptop, completely engrossed in his
work.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe wondered, who could have sent her the text? Or, had the person not arrived yet?
“Ellinor!”
At the sound of a familiar voice, Ellinor looked up, “Mr. Morgan?”
It was her boss from her internship, Morgan.
Morgan seemed to have packed on a few extra pounds, he had a wide grin on his face, ‘Ellinor, it’s
been ages.”
Even though Ellinor hadn’t quit that long ago.
Could Morgan be the one who texted her?
Ellinor decided to test the waters, “Morgan, what brings you here?”
Morgan plonked himself down, all gleeful, ‘Ellinor, it was me who wanted to see you”
Ellinor took a sip from her coffee, “So it was you who texted me yesterday?”
Morgan gave her a nod, “Yep, it was me! I know all about what happened between you and Mr.
Blanchet.”
Ellinor arched an eyebrow, “So what?”
Morgan grinned, “Ellinor, I need to tell you, because Mr. Blanchet didn’t agree to cooperate with our
company on the new project last time, I got axed. I believe you had a
hand in this too!”
Ellinor remained nonchalant, “My fault? Morgan, you’ve got it all twisted. As far as I know, it was your
cousin Debby who messed up by gaming on the job and got our system hacked, I was just the
scapegoat. I haven’t even settled scores with you guys, and here you are blaming me?”
Morgan was taken aback. He didn’t expect Ellinor to know about what happened after he got fired in
such detail. He coughed awkwardly, “It’s all water under the bridge, who’s to blame doesn’t really
matter now! Ellinor, do you know how hard it was for me to climb up from a nobody to a manager’s
position? At my age, it’s hard to land another good job, and I have a family to feed…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEllinor cut him off, not wanting to hear any more of his sob story, “Morgan, spit it out if you’ve got
something to say!”
Morgan, seeing she was all business, got straight to the point, “I saw you in Mr. Blanchet’s car the other
day, and just yesterday I saw you dining with him. I know you’re tight with Mr. Blanchet! So, I was
hoping you could do me a favor.”
Ellinor was a tad curious, “What can I do for you?”
Morgan gave her a sly smile, “Ellinor, considering your special relationship with Mr. Blanchet, it should
be easy for you to persuade him, right? As long as you can get Mr. Blanchet to agree to work with
Nexus Industries again, they’ll let me have my old job back!”
Ellinor got his drift, “And if I refuse?”
Morgan was full of confidence, his eyes narrowing into slits, “I’ve done my homework, Mr. Blanchet got
hitched not long ago. Ellinor, what do you think would happen if Mr. Blanchet’s legit wife finds out about
his side chick?”
His legit wife?
