I'M THE LEAD

Chapter 17: Injured

Cessa gets out of the car with Angel they're having lunch together. They went into the restaurant.

"Mama!" cessa shouted as she entered, she immediately saw Eleanor who was in a meeting with a client. Eleanor felt herself being called straight to see Cessa running towards her.

"Cessa don't run, baby." Angel tries to stop Cessa but Cessa keeps running.

Eleanor immediately ran towards Cessa as Cessa was about to bump into the waiter who was carrying the order.

Prangs!

Eleanor protects Cessa until the hot meal hits Eleanor's back.

"Vessa!" Angel then approached Cessa.

It's hot, but Eleanor can still hold it.

"Darling, are you hurt? Which part hurts?" tanya Eleanor examined Cessa's body first.

"Mom sorry, hiks. Because Cessa's mama's been like this." Cessa cried loudly making Eleanor immediately hug Cessa.

"It's okay, sweet boy don't cry." Eleanor kisses Cessa on the forehead.

"But mom's hurt."

"Aunty's okay, next time Cessa has to be careful. Got it," said Eleanor, making Cessa nod her head.

"I'm sorry for the carelessness that happened, Cessa let's apologize to the servant uncle." Eleanor asks Cessa to apologize to the waiter.

"I'm sorry Cessa uncle" said Cessa, nodding her head.

"It's okay, little lady, next time you have to be careful" replied the waiter while carrying the broken glass back.

"Cessa, come here, baby. Are you hurt?" ask Angel to worry.

"Cessa is fine but mom is hurt," Cessa replied making Angel frown. Who's the woman Cessa called mom? This woman in front of him?

"Aunty's fine dear, now it's like her aunty is going to change clothes first," ujae Eleanor smiled gently at Cess.

"Thank you for helping my niece Miss," said Angel sincerely although she did not like Eleanor still Angel thanked her for saving Cessa. If it wasn't for Eleanor, maybe Cessa's skin would have been burned and injured because her skin was still stretched.

"Together, Cessa aunty came home huh."

"Can't Cessa come?" cessa almost cried.

"What if this was the case, Cessa had to have lunch first and just meet aunty after lunch."

"Cessa agrees, see you mama."

Eleanor apologized to her client because she had to go home and treat her back which was now a little painful.

"Aunty Angel, you can call me papa, please" Cessa's request made Angel directly call Liam after ordering lunch for them.

"Papa, can you go see Mom? Mama's hurt because of me" said Cessa in tears.

"Daughter don't cry, explain slowly papa will listen to you," Liam replied frantically when he heard her crying.

"So mama helped Cessa and mama got hurt, papa help mama."

"Okay, baby, now don't cry. Papa will soon treat mama." Liam immediately got up from his seat and immediately headed towards Eleanor's house.

"Thank you papa."

Cessa gives Angel a cell phone after talking to Liam.

"Thank you aunty" said Cessa, making Angel nod her head.

"Dear, by the way, Aunty wasn't Cessa's mom." Angel begins to explain that Eleanor is not Cessa's mother.

"Not aunty wrong, mama is Cessa's mama."

"Mama Cessa is now in heaven so it's impossible that the aunty was Cessa's mom" Angel said, making Cessa's eyes start to speak.

"Aunty's bad, why did aunty say that mom wasn't Cessa's mom."

"It's not so dear, it's good that aunty gives up now let's have lunch first."

Angel had no idea what had happened as long as he was not on Cessa's side. But Angel can conclude that Eleanor must have approached Cessa under the pretext of getting close to Liam.

"Where's Eleanor?" ask Liam to the waiter.

"Miss is in the room" the maid replied, making Liam enter Eleanor's room. Liam stopped at the door because now Eleanor was treating her wounds aided by Amel.

More to Liam's surprise, Eleanor wore a bra when treated.

"Liam, what's wrong?" eleanoe asked casually, after all Liam had already seen her so he could not cover her anymore.

"Hows it? Is your wound bad?" liam asked Eleanor and looked behind Eleanor, who was flushed and slightly blistered.

"No, it will heal soon after being treated," Eleanor replied casually.

Liam was speechless he was very worried about Eleanor tapo as his Eleanor did not know this, but it was not her that was good.

"What if you leave a mark?"

"Liam, the era has been sophisticated defender like this can be lost if treated," replied Eleanor still make Liam feel pain because he saw the back of Eleanor who was injured.

"Where's Cessa? Is he not with you?" eleanor asked as she put her clothes back on after being treated by Amel.

"Cessa's coming soon, by the way El is it okay you're already wearing clothes?"

"Hm, this is gonna be okay."

Eleanor and Liam are in the living room. Amel came to bring coffee and snacks for Liam and Eleanor.

"By the way, Liam, don't you have a job anymore?" eleanor asked Liam to shake her head.

"My work is done" Liam replied clearly that he was lying because Liam's work was so piled up.

"El, I'm a little worried how about we go to the hospital and make sure your injuries are okay" Liam said, making Eleanor shake her head.

"I'm fine Liam, so there's no need to go to the hospital." Eleanor replied while sipping her coffee.

"But El" said Liam but was quickly stopped by Eleanor.

"Sstt, Liam you're such a fuss."

"Cashy but handsome isn't it?"

"Ah shit, I admit that you are handsome Liam," replied Eleanor making her two chuckles.

"Mama!" call Cessa to make Eleanor stand up to welcome Cessa.

"Darling, don't run!" eleanor's screams made Cessa stop running and walk normally.

"Smart kid," praises Eleanor kissing both cheeks of Cessa who is very adorable.

"I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Angel, Liam's sister-in-law," Angel said.

"Eleanor, hello to Angel."

"Is my mom treated?" cessa asked, making Eleanor nod her head.

"Dear, what does Cessa want? Melon juice or tomato juice?"

"Malon juice, Cessa is so thirsty."

"Angel, what do you want to drink?" eleanor asked Angel, who was now sitting next to Liam. Eleanor shook her head as she thought she did not like Angel sitting next to Liam.

"White water."

Eleanor called Amel and asked him to make a drink for the guests.

"Mama, Cessa wants you to see this," Cessa said.

Eleanor can see Cessa getting an A plus over her drawings. Cessa drew an adult woman and a little girl who were feeding rabbits.

"It's Mama and Cessa, the teacher said she was very beautiful" Cessa explained happily.

"It's aunty?" tanya Eleanor does not believe that Cessa drew her and Cessa.

"Hm, pretty, right, mama?"

"It's so pretty."

Again and again Eleanor's heart warmed to see the results of Cessa's image.
