Ch-14
The clumsy Simona came with 'Ellie'. The real Ellie looked thin. There are dark circles under her eyes. She looked weak. Her eyes are sunken. Her cheeks are also sunken. Her dead eyes showed some life as she stared at Abigail, Rebecca, and Samantha.
A small smile rested on her lips.
"Good afternoon, Ceo, Chairwoman, and Miss. Rebecca," she greeted each person.
Her eyes held a little hope as she looked at them.
"We checked your background. May I know why you are here instead of the laboratory center?" Abigail asked the moment she laid her eyes on her.
"My identity is stolen!" Ellie said.
The small hope which started to sprout in her eyes started dimming. She couldn't help but feel sad by looking at them. She confirmed that they are not going to help her. The hope in her eyes gradually disappeared and was replaced with her same lifeless and emotionless look from the past.
"Since it's your identity, why didn't you claim it back?" Abigail asked.
"How can I take it, Chairwoman? I'm not like you. I'm a common citizen. I neither have money, power, nor courage.
"When I tried to claim my identity back, I was threatened with my mom's life. They almost killed my mom at that time. Well, after some days passed, My mom died of a heart stroke.
"I can neither complain nor say it to anyone. I was pushed to a dead end by them.
"Even the police cannot help me. I have to stay hidden in my home. I was depressed so much where I thought of dying many times. And I tried to do it too. At that time, my friend came forward and helped me to get into a hospital. She helped me to get a job here. I am living my life in uncertainty. I can't lift my head in front of my relatives, family, and friends. Everyone whom I held dear left me when I'm at my lowest point. I can't believe anyone.
" I can only rely on myself. My pride didn't allow me to settle for lower jobs. But I have to live. So, I have to do every menial job. I worked as a waitress, a cleaner. I did every work.
" There are days where I cried sitting in the corner of the bed. I felt life is unfair. My whole world started collapsing at the end. I couldn't get myself to reach a stable point. My childhood love left me saying that I'm shameful. My mom died. What can I do about these things? I cannot fight with the one who stole my identity," Ellie concluded venting everything.
Her whole body started trembling. As she remembered the past events she cannot help but cry. The pain, agony, the suffering everything she remembered everything. She couldn't help but tear up.
But she didn't let the tears fall.
After all, she cried many days and nights.
Now she will not cry anymore.
She has changed her failure, her ups and downs taught her many things. She learned who are her true friends and who are her fake friends.
She blinked away her tears and stared ahead at Abigail and her group.
"Hmmm," Abigail nodded.
"She has a strong attitude. Which is good," Abigail turned towards Samantha and Rebecca.
"Yes! If she can talk like this tomorrow. She can get back everything," Samantha said.
"But I think we have to change her appearance. This look cannot intimidate that bitch!"Abigail said.
"Yes, and she is thin and lean. I think she didn't have good food," Rebecca said.
Suddenly Ellie felt like the whole world was spinning in different ellipses.
She thought they wouldn't help her. But all this while they are testing her. They are testing her whether she is strong or not. Suddenly her eyes turned moist. She misunderstood them. Hope started filling in her eyes. She started seeing the things in the angle. A small smile started etching on her face.
"Miss. Ellie, we have an offer. We will help you in return and you will help us in return. Only give and take the policy," Abigail said.
Ellie nodded at her.
"Good, before we start our plans. You should change your look. Samantha, send her to your salon and give instructions to your beautician. She has to look stunning and confident. Her hair, clothing, everything should be changed." Abigail said.
Abigail turned towards Ellie, "if you have any objections you can state them," Abigail said.
Elie nodded at her.
"Oh yes, you will go home late today. Because there are things which need to be sorted out. okay?"Abigail said.
"Okay!" she nodded her head and left along with Samantha and Simona.
"Simona, you stay back. Samantha will accompany her," Abigail said.
"Yes, Chairwoman," She said.
Simona and Rebecca stayed back.
"I forgot. Rebecca and Simona contact the education bureau and ask them to certify the fake and real. And ask them to arrest the culprit with the fake certificate in the crowd only," Abigail said.
"How can I contact them?" Rebecca said.
"Use my name," she said as she gave a name card.
"And say everything. Say to them, that you are just helping them to find a big case by this," Abigail added.
Rebecca and Simona nodded their heads.
Rebecca contacted the education commissioner from the education bureau. She stated the problem and the issue.
Rebecca sent the scanned copy of the certificate. But the Education commissioner asked for their certificates. Which caused a huge headache for them.
"We will send you in two hours. But can you send the results the fastest sir?"Rebecca asked as she bit her lower lip.
"Sure," he replied.
"I will go and get the Ellie certificate. You go and get the fake Ellie certificate," Simona said and dashed out.
In her hurry, she again bumped into the door and hurt her nose.
She got up to her feet and smiled awkwardly at them. She dashed out to get the certificates.
Abigail and Rebecca are thinking about how to certificates.
"You stay here, I will get the certificates," Abigail said to Rebecca.
