12 Actually.... You Can Sleep With ME! I Don't Mind.

Ch-12

Eleanor gathered her courage and picked the call.

"Ele, how are you?" Mr. Zora asked lovingly.

Eleanor knew that this was calmness before the storm.

"I'm good. How are you and mom?" Eleanor asked.

"We are good. You should not hide things from us, Elen," Her father said immediately.

"Dad, I didn't mean to but it happened, so sorry," Eleanor is thinking about her rented boyfriend thingy. After all, she did things in a high-profile manner and embarrassed the whole Boris empire. Why will Jacob Boris stay quiet? He will go and make a fuss about it.

"I heard about the Boris family marriage. Don't be sad. And if you have said that to us, even though we don't have the capability we would have protected you. You don't need to meet your friend and ask for his help to be your boyfriend to ruin their scum marriage. Next time, Don't do this. Appa will take care of it for you. We are your parents and we are the ones who love you. So, you have to come to us if anything happens, not to an outsider.

"And Congratulations to us, Emerson empire agreed to sign the contract tomorrow. I just got a call from them an hour ago.

"I wanted to know, did you ask your friend to help us or did he do it because he liked the project?" Mr. Zora asked.

Eleanor frowned at his words. Why did he say that?

"Dad, Why do you ask that?" Eleanor asked.

"Your friend Cedric, called me to explain the marriage thing and ex-boyfriend cheating on you. Also, after he called us, the very next day we got this contract. So, I'm a little suspicious. Even though we are at our low points, I don't want to play a fraud game," Mr. Zora said.

"Dad, I didn't ask him to help us. Didn't I tell you that I'm confident about this project! See, we got this. I didn't even mention this to him, dad. I promise. You can sign the contract," Eleanor swore.

"Haha, Little girl, had food?" Mr. Zora asked.

"Nope, dad. Gonna have now," Eleanor said.

"Okay! It's already late! Have food and rest early! Papa misses you. Try to come early!" Mr. Zora said.

"Oh! You will have to take over this project since you designed this project. I'm not confident with anyone handling this project!" Mr. Zora said.

"Dad… That…." Eleanor wanted to say something but was cut off by Mr. Zora.

"No more words! You will be taking over as the project head!" Mr. Zora said.

Eleanor sensed that her father was getting angry; she didn't dare to say anything more against him.

"Okay dad, I will do as you say," Eleanor said obediently.

"Okay! Eat food and sleep! I will be hanging up!" Father Zora said.

"Good night, Dad!" Eleanor Zora said.

Eleanor turned to face Cedric.

She saw his breathtakingly handsome face. He looked even more handsome when he was working.

'How could a man be so handsome?' she thought subconsciously.

She stared at him continuously without blinking.

Cedric, who is working, felt two holes boring on his body. He lifted his head in the direction where he felt two holes boring on his body, only to meet her two eyes.

He winked at her as he gazed at her.

Eleanor felt blood rushing to her face. Her face turned red.

God! She always embarrasses herself in front of him all the time.

She needs to stop doing stupid things.

"If you like my face that much, stare at me openly. No need of sneaking," Cedric said with a wink.

Eleanor was stunned. Gosh! She didn't mean that!

"Thank you! For accepting our company's proposal. I have a question. Why did you agree with our company? It is on the verge of collapse. No future, No confidence, No hopes, and no budget. Why?" Eleanor asked.

"You said so many reasons to decline it. But I have one reason to accept it. That is the hard work and the expectations of your company which are held by your company workers. Even though your company is on the verge of collapse, you never stopped giving salaries. You never dismissed anyone. It shows that you want to get your company back to its state. That is all I need. I found your company with morality, a sense of loyalty, and a company with a bright future," Cedric said.

"Do you want to know anything else?" he asked at last after burying his face into the laptop.

"Thank you. Let's go to bed early. Tomorrow we have to wake up early," Eleanor said.

"No problem. I will sleep on the couch here. You can use the bed," he said.

"You can sleep with me. I don't mind!" Eleanor said. Her words made Cedric raise his brows.
