EPISODE 32
“Miss Helen Porter, I think I am clear enough about our relationship now. So, please don’t come here in the future. I don’t like any unnecessary people around me.”James Thomson said in a cold tone.
“Mr. James, it might be easier for you. But it is not easy for a woman. If you would have a little bit of conscience, you could not do that.”Helen Porter said in a sad tone.
“What is conscience? Should I worry for you? But why? Why would I worry for a woman whom I have been keeping away from me all those years? Miss Helen Porter, I think you should study about me before coming to me. You can get my information everywhere on the internet. I think I am quite infamous among the netizens. Did not you aware of my rejection? I even informed my intentions clearly to your parents before and even after the engagement. Should not you already leave me alone?”James Thomson asked annoyingly.
“Mr. James, I can understand what you are speaking. But you also know that in our society we can not do everything as we wish. We have to prefer our parent’s wishes more than our own choices.
I knew that you did not want to make me your life partner. But I ……I could not keep myself away from you. Although you declined my request to meet with you, I just could not help myself. You ……. you are my first love. Although you never had a single glance at me,I……I always followed you everywhere. I wanted to propose to you, but could not gather courage. When both of our grandfathers decided to turn their friendship into a relationship, I was the happiest person in this world. But when you declined my request for a date, I was heartbroken. B……But I decided to stay with you although that was only for the name’s sake.”Helen Porter said in a sad tone.
“Miss Porter, please don’t waste my time with your unnecessary blabbering. I am not a free person to hear all of your nonsenses.”
“Mr. James, have you ever think of me when you decide one- sidedly to call off the marriage? Do you know how society reacts when they heard that a man has called off a marriage? Do you know that you have made my life hell by doing that? Now I feel ashamed to go anywhere.I…..I felt like everyone is staring at me, laughing at me.
This feeling is unbearable now. How would you feel if the same thing happened to your sister or your loved one? Oh, My mistakes! You are a heartless Devil. It is not possible for you to know these feelings. I know that you will not marry me. But should not you at least help me to get rid of this? Are not you equally responsible for this mess? “Helen Porter asked in a cry – like tone.
“You know your words can not any effect on me. So, you just leave.”
“I know Mr. James. I told Daisy also . What she told me was right. We women are always at a disadvantage in the realtionships. Even it is our fault or not, but the people would like to talk about us only.”
James Thomson looked at the woman in front of him thoughtfully.
“Okay. I will help you.”James Thomson replied in a deep voice.
Helen Porter stared at the cold and ruthless man in front of him with her wide eyes.
“A……are you telling that you will help me?”
“Yes. I am going to help you, as I have created this mess. I will date you in public for a month to let everyone know that we are going to marry soon. And after that, you will announce the call of the marriage due to my lack of interest in me. You can tell that I am not a suitable candidate for you for the marriage. If you would ditch me, no one would point at you. Everyone would think that there is something lacking in me, not in you.”James Thomson said without looking at her.
Helen Porter was about to jump to hear him.
‘Oh, God! It is my chance again! One month is sufficient for me to make him mine.’She thought happily.
“But, one thing I want to make clear to you. I have no interest in you. I will never marry you or would have any relationship with you. So, don’t dare to step your boundary. I am doing this only for my sister. So, don’t try to test my patience.”James Thomson looked at her and said in a determined tone.
“Of course. How can I ever forget that? But, you should keep your word. Don’t let anyone know about our fake relationship. At least for the next month. Otherwise, it will not work.”Helen Porter said happily.
“Leave now.”James Thomson growled.
“Ok. Ok. I am leaving. Just keep your promise and fix a date . I would like to go to a restaurant.”Helen Porter said and left the CEO cabin happily and dialed a number.
“I have made it. He is going to date me for the next month. Now let us plan everything properly.”She said and hang up the call.
In the city R ,Nina Anderson was trying to get a suitable job for her. She had applied for various companies, but no one accepted her as her service record in High Clouds Enterprise was not good. Two weeks had passed already, but she was not able to get a job in city R.
“Tirana, now what to do? Everyone is rejecting me. I don’t know why they are asking for an experience certificate! I am really frustrated now.”Nina Anderson uttered in a sad tone to Miss Tirana, who had visited her with dinner.
“Nina, don’t worry. You will get something suitable soon. You have not tried every company yet. Who knows if the company you have not expected to accept you would accept you.”Miss Tirana said with a smile.
” No, Tirana. I have applied to almost all the listed companies here.No one is going to accept me. My interviews were gone well. I hoped they would accept me. But I don’t know why are they making such nonsense excuses.”
“Don’t worry too much. Let me check. Let me see the list of the companies offering recruitments now.”Miss Tirana said in a serious tone. Nina Anderson handed her the file of the listed companies she had sorted out. Miss Tirana studied the list for some time.
“Nina, why have you not applied for High Clouds Enterprise and Jian Cosmetics? These two companies are also listed here. Look here, The Hgh Clouds is hiring two assistants of clerks and Jian Cosmetics is hiring three clerks. Although these posts are lower in rank than before,but you should try these, as you can get promotions easily. You need not stay in the same post forever.”Miss Tirana asked in a confused tone.
“I don’t want to go back to the High clouds. I just would not feel comfortable working under my best friend.Jian Cosmetics is also a big no- no for me due to some personal reasons.”Nina Anderson replied in a low voice.
Miss Tirana shrugged her shoulder and took Nina Anderson’s hand on her.
“Look, Nina. You should not think of your personal relationship in the places of work.I know that Miss Lucy is your best friend, but if you got selected for the post, you would get a salary for your works only. Your personal relationship with the CEO does not matter.I think your best friend would also think the same. So, you should not spoil your career for your personal relationship with the CEO. And about Jian Cosmetics,I think it is not an issue too.”Miss Tirana said in a serious tone.
” No,Tirana,I think I should try at High Clouds Enterprise. But I can not go to Jian Cosmetics.I…..I have some ……some…”
“Are you doing this for your boyfriend?”Miss Tirana stopped Nian Anderson as she saw her struggling with her words.
“H…how do you know?I ……I never told you about my relationship with him.”Nina Anderson asked in a confused tone.
“Nina, you are really too naive. Everyone in the High Clouds knows about your relationship with the heir of the Jian Cosmetics. I just wanted to ask you about him. You are here for two weeks already. But I have not seen him visit you once. You have not tried to contact him these days. Why? Have you two broken up already?”
“No, Tirana.I have not broken up with him. But just don’t want to meet him now. I think he is not yet aware of my arrival in this city.I am trying to conceal this information from him.”Nina Anderson said in a sad tone.
Miss Tirana stared at her thoughtfully.
“But why? Are you trying to hide from him? Did you do something bad in the last month that you are trying to hide? If you would have asked him to help you, he definitely will help you. What I have heard about you two, both of you were the perfect pair. Your love story was famous among us. We all envied you for being loved by someone that much.”Miss Tirana said thoughtfully.
“Wh……..what do you mean by did something bad? Did not I tell you that I forgot about my past and I came back immediately I remembered everything? I am just trying to avoid him for time being. I don’t want to make him worried for me. That is why I am trying to keep myself away from him. I don’t want to show him my weakest side. I am not in a good state now. He has seen my strong side all these years. That’s why I decided not to apply to his company.”Nina Anderson said in a calm tone.
“But, if he really onto you, would he let you go for these silly things?
“He might not. But…but, I am scared. I…I have no courage to face him now. What if he throws me away from his life to see my bad conditions now? I…I love him. He is life.I …I don’t know what would happen to me if he ……. I just can not let him go away from me. I don’t want to give him any chance .”
“But, until when you will avoid him? In a relationship, you should not hide anything from each other. It can create misunderstandings. Trust is the main thing in a relationship. You should have trust in your partner. I think it is time. You should meet him now. He might be worried for you.”
“Ok. I will think about it.”Nina Anderson said in a low voice.
“Yes. You should go ahead. It is not the time to hide here. And about applying for the job, I think you should apply for both High Clouds Enterprise and Jian Enterprise. They are going to select you on the basis of your talent, not for the personal relationship.”
“But….”
“Nina Anderson, if you are hesitating to apply, let me do it for you. And one more thing. One of my social media friends mentioned a new company in country L, which is going to open its branches in different cities of our country. He said that the company is hiring employees. He told me that, he will send me the link for the same. I will apply for a post on behalf of you.”Miss Tirana stopped Nina Anderson and said. Nina Anderson sighed and nodded.
“Boss, this is Miss Helen. She wants to talk to you.” Peter Carter entered the CEO cabin of the Trudominion Enterprise and handed James Thomson his mobile phone.
“Tell her that I am busy.”James Thomson said in an annoyed tone.
“Mr. James, how can you do this to me. It is already two weeks . How can you break your promise like that? Even you are not accepting my calls?”Miss Helen Porter opened the door of the CEO’s office and said in a loud tone.
“Miss Helen Porter, you can not barge in like this. I told you that he is very busy these days. Please don’t disturb the boss.”Peter Carter reached near Helen Porter hurriedly and tried to stop her to come near James Thomson.
“I am not leaving. I am telling you, I am not going to leave. He promised to give me one month, but he broke the promise. I am here for a reply from him. Why did he promise me, if he can not keep it?”Helen Porter yelled.
“Peter Carter, let her come in.”James Thomson said in a calm tone. Helen Porter entered and sat down on the sofa in the room.
“Peter, you go and list out our findings. We have to leave after one hour.”James Thomson said and got up from his chair and sat down on a sofa in front of Helen Porter. Peter Carter bowed and leaves the room.
“Miss Helen, I am sorry that I could not keep my words.”James Thomson uttered in a low voice.
Helen Porter looked at James Thomson confusedly.
“Mr. James. I don’t know what to believe, what to not!”Helen Porter replied with a smirk.
“Miss Porter, you believe in me or not, but I was very busy these days. I was out of the city as I had to visit some places.”
“Mr. James, I know that you are a busy man. I can understand that you might be out of station for some works. But what I am talking about your intentions. I don’t think that you are really willing to help me out. Otherwise, you would have at least leave a message for me that night. Do you know that until when I had waited for you? I informed all my family members that you were taking me to date. I dressed up and waited for you forever. But you did not show up. How can you make me a laughingstock in front of my family? After that day you even did not care to receive my calls! How can you do this to me?”
“I am sorry Miss Helen. It was all my fault. I will make up for that day. I will go on a date tomorrow. Choose the time and place. I will be there in time.”James Thomson said in a serious tone.
“I don’t believe.I don’t want to go somewhere, where you will never show up.”
“That will not happen. Just text me the place and time. I will keep my promise this time.”He replied.
Helen Porter looked at the cold and serious person sitting in front of her and smiled.
“Ok. I will. But………”Helen Porter wanted to speak something, but James Thomson stopped her.
“Now leave. I have no time to waste.”James Thomson said and got up.
“Mr. J…………”
“I said leave before I change my mind.”He said in a cold tone.
“O…..ok.”Helen Porter uttered and leaves the cabin.
“How dare he? What does he think of himself? How can he be so rude to me? Am I nothing in front of him? …….I am Helen Porter. You just can not treat me like trash. I will surely bring you to my clutches. Just wait and see.”Helen Porter stomped her feet angrily and left. Peter Carter was standing nearby. He sighed to see her anger and knocked on the door of the CEO cabin.
“Come in.”He heard James Thomson’s voice.
“Boss, she and her family are trying to, trap you for a long time. Why are you stepping on the trap yourself? Will you be fine by that?”Peter Carter said in a worried tone.
“Don’t worry Peter. Nothing will happen to me. I will be fine.”James Thomson replied in a calm tone.
“Yes. I know you are capable enough to do so. But I am curious about one thing. You used to hate Helen Porter with the core of your heart. But you agreed to date her immediately after your fake wife left. Is it necessary to date a woman like her?
She and her family was nothing to you. I think she would do more harm than before if you date her. I don’t think that you are not aware of all these. But still, you are getting ready to jump on the fire. Please tell me, boss. I am going to die in curiosity. I already asked you so many times, but you never replied to me.”Peter Carter said in a curious tone.
“Peter, you have become too nosy these days.I think you are not getting enough works these days.”
“Please boss, don’t do that. I am really curious. I was thinking about that for days.I even could not sleep for two nights. I thought and thought but could not get anything.”
“I think you are too old to be my assistant .”James Thomson said in a cold tone.
“Boss, please don’t say that. I want to serve you till my old age. And ……and I am only two years younger than you. Please, boss, tell me the reason behind your advances towards Helen Porter.Or…….or, Oh my God! I had not thought that. Yes, that must be. You must be fell for Helen Porter. You did not notice her before, but now you have seen her and fell for her. But how can you do that to Miss Anderson? You two are still married legally.”Peter Carter said with a smile.
“What nonsense are you speaking? I am doing this for Nina Anderson.”James Thomson said in a cold tone. Peter Carter almost choked for breath.
