Chapter 85 - Clash (3) (1/2)

Ch-85

Eleanor and her group reached the Callan group in twenty-five minutes. They were led inside by the staff to the presentation room. Eleanor and her team settled at their table. And as if the god wanted to collide with them, the Parkinson's sat opposite to them.

Parkinson's daughter, Amelia Parkinson was in charge of this project. For her, this project was very important because her father said that the person who does well would inherit the business. But her elder brother was good at doing business. All the shareholders' vote for him for his leadership skills. But she got nothing and this project would mean a lot to them. And she wanted to hook up with Cedric, taking this as a chance. And she knew that Eleanor was showing up for this presentation.

During the competitions of the Queen socialite competitions, Parkinson's daughter, Amelia Parkinson was always shadowed by Eleanor. And now… Eleanor's first face-off presentation was this. If she could embarrass her this time, she would be kicked out of the socialite circle. And she will get the crown back on her head at least this time.

Amelia wouldn't have poked her nose into this matter with Zora's but she had to do it when she saw Zora's family was getting better. If that happens the Zora family would be qualified to participate in the socialite competitions in the coming one and a half years. She couldn't allow that. She would make Eleanor cry her eyes out.

And with this project, she would get the deal and can kick Eleanor out. One-shot, two targets. A Perfect plan!!

But one thing Amelia failed to notice was, despite being protected by her brother and father… Eleanor knew how to live in the world of wolves and vampires.

And this stupid Amelia, whose eyes were blinded by greed and lust, failed to notice the real Eleanor. Eleanor indeed doesn't know many things, but it doesn't mean she knew anything. People should have an idea about her character when she pulled a famous stunt in Jacob Boris's marriage. They might have forgotten what she did then… but now again she won't mind reminding them what she can do.

Eleanor returned a smirk to Amelia. The first presentation was done by Wilson Groups and then the second presentation was done by the Green groups. Now it's time for the third company to give the presentation.

Amelia puffing her chest, she stood up with her to get on to the stage but was stopped by the managers.

”The third presentation by Zora groups! Let's welcome, Miss. Eleanor and her team display it,” the manager said.

”What!!?!” Amelia yelled, gaining the attention.

”We are supposed to be the third in the presentation. How did they become third?” Amelia yelled.

”We have our reasons. Please be seated and wait till your turn comes,” a manager said to her, showing her way to their previous seats.

”I don't agree!!” she yelled.

”I don't need people who bark like dogs here,” Edward's voice could be heard from above.

Feeling Embarrassed, Amelia sat in her seat dejectedly. Anyway, she has her cards up her sleeves. She could use them and make the people sympathize with her.

Zora groups started giving the presentation. Amelia was shocked at the efficiency of Eleanor. She forgot she had to blame Eleanor. By the time she came out of her senses, she saw Eleanor and her team were thanking everyone.

Amelia strode onto the stage and pulled Eleanor's hair before slapping her hard. Eleanor was caught off-guard. She didn't expect Amelia would be this vicious. The worst she expected was getting scolded, but abuse! This surprised her!

When Amelia raised her hand again to slap her, Cedric held her hand in time and pushed her back. Amelia stumbled with her steps and fell twisting her ankle.

”Cedric… Do you know what she did?” Amelia started her fake tears.

”We are not close enough to the point you can call me Cedric,” he said.

”We met each other many times in the meetings,” Amelia said with teary eyes.

”I even meet the waiters and servers during the meetings, I can't let everyone call me Cedric. It's Mr. Emerson for you,” he said word by word making everyone still in their places.

Tears streamed out of her eyes as she looked at him. As if feeling wronged she hung her head low and said, ”Okay, Mr. Emerson,”

”May I know why you beat my woman?” Cedric said.

”Before that Ms. Parkinson should stand up. I am worried that the tiles of my company floor would be damaged because of her,” Edward's voice could be heard from behind.

”Maybe I should get a special bed for Ms. Parkinson to sleep there,” Edward added.

Everyone chuckled at Amelia making her look like a joker.

[How did it change? Everyone should sympathize with me! But why are they laughing!] she screamed in her mind. As if she was badly injured, she got up with 'great difficulty'.

”She plagiarized our theme and our project! Everything was a bit by bit copy of us,” Amelia pointed, making everyone gasp.

Murmurs started to ring out in the hall. Cedric was about to take a step forward and beat her up, but Eleanor held him back. She gave a smile to him asking him to stay out of it.

”Ms. Parkinson, could you explain the theme then? Since it's your project that I copied then you should very well know about this project. And you are here as the project head,” Eleanor said.

Onlookers thought Eleanor's words made sense. And they could feel that Eleanor was oozing with confidence, few people believed that she didn't plagiarize the plot.

”I can do it!” Amelia said. She didn't realize that she started a bit and her voice was a little lower than before.
