I’m Someone Else

As Elaine was about to say something more, William stepped up and said, “If I were you, I wouldn’t poke my nose in their affair, Elaine. Izzy is just your employee. If the worst comes to the worst, you could just hire someone else.” Thinking Molly as the woman of the man he treated and respected like a big brother, William wouldn’t agree to let it slide either if he was in Thomas’ place. Therefore, there was no way Thomas was going to let Izzy off. No goddamn way! You may be my cousin, Elaine, but you still belong with the Denver Family, after all, and your mother is merely my aunt. So, you can forget about using me to pressure Thomas because I’m on his side.

“Listen to Will, Elle. Stay out of this matter! She is just a replaceable employee, so trust me—she isn’t worth it. You could always look for someone else to take over her place. I’m sure there are many other more capable candidates out there. Once she is gone, I believe everything in your company is going to be back to normal.” Samuel interrupted the conversation just when Elaine was trying to stand up for Izzy.

“Wait, what?” Everybody else was stunned when they heard what the older man said. After all, they didn’t expect Samuel to step in and side with Thomas. However, they were able to quickly tell about the older man’s intention to help Thomas out when he told Elaine to mind her own business.

“By the way… the fine wine at the door is for Thomas…”

“Yeah, I remember it now. Thomas is the long-lost friend of both Old Mr. Peralta and Old Mr. Morton, isn’t he?”

“D*mn it. No way! I haven’t heard of this guy ever before in Irieson. Who the heck is he? And how is it possible that he is the two old men’s long-lost friend?”

“What do you know? I just saw Old Mr. Morton fetching him a glass of wine.” Murmurs of gossip began to fill the atmosphere.

In the meantime, Elaine knitted her eyebrows tightly, thinking there was nothing else she could do after Samuel had made himself clear. She then glimpsed Izzy and sighed to herself on the inside. I did all I could to save you, but I couldn’t. So, you’re on your own, girl. Good luck!
