She came there any chance she got
"Your dad is really improving" the doctor said
"Thanks to my new daughter" Bertha said
The next time Bridget came, Bertha pleaded with her to stay at her house for a few weeks to help her husband
"Mom ain't you pressuring her" Eli said
"I would do anything to see your dad well" she said
They prepared a room for her and she helped out Bertha introduced her to people as her daughter
" sorry for everything" he said
"It's okay I am glad I can help, anyway at least I can be your wife and do all the duties of a wife now my dream is fulfilled" she said and they laughed
Ella saw them coming and leaving work together and asked Eli about it
"She lives in my house now but it's just for some weeks" he said and asked about her wedding
Manuel was still waiting for the final answer of Ella
One night Bridget asked Eli to drink with her and the talked for a while in the heat of the moment she kissed him and he left to his room and the next day he left early for work
"Are you angry with me?" Bridget asked
"Yeah"
"Come on it was just a kiss"
"I had promised to not kiss anyone again but her and you broke my promise"
"What's wrong with you? She moved on she's getting married are you going to remain single forever "
"Yes I can only love her" he said
"She's getting married how can you not give your heart a chance"
"If I want to give my heart a chance it won't be for you" he said and she left, he didn't mean it he just wanted her to stop talking
He went home and she had left there too, his father was able to do little things so she left with the excuse that her grandmother was ill
She wasn't as goofy as she used to be always playing around and some people noticed
"You were angry because I kissed you and said some hurtful things and it hurts once again you made me realize I am not deserving of love like my father usually says" Bridget was hurt
She wasn't goofy with him but was with everyone else and he didn't like the feeling
" you seem troubled" his mom said
"Mom I am losing Bridget and I don't want to, she's doing all the things she used to do with me with another and I don't like it"
" Eli do you like Bridget?"
"Mom no"
" when you understand your feelings then I will talk with you" she said and left
He saw Bridget going out with someone from the office
" are you dating such guy" he said
"Why?! he likes me" she said and left with the guy, Eli followed them and he saw that guy trying to kiss her, he punched the guy
"What's wrong with you" she screamed
"You get out of here" he said to the guy and he left
"Why did you do that?"
" I wasn't going to allow him Kiss you"
" why? Do you like me"
"No!!!" He said and she left
The next day he warned her about that guy
"I think we should maintain this boss and staff relationship you're interfering too much in my life" she said and left
One day he saw Bridget talking to someone
"So who hired such a useless person" her dad said and she didn't mind him
"Your brother is sick I need some money"
"Coming from a man who never spent a penny on me"
"You're wicked"
"Does he even know he has a sister somewhere" she said but gave him the money on her and left but he kept on demanding for more she didn't have
"It was a mistake to give you money" she said and tried to leave but he slapped her
"I am glad I never loved you, you don't deserve to be loved"
"I know ok so leave me alone" she said but a hand wrapped around her waist
"Who told you she's not loved I love her and we're getting married in three weeks" Eli said and left with her
"Thank you" she said
"You can cry on my shoulder if you want to" he said and she couldn't hold her tears he hugged her and console her
"I got the chance to hug you" she said and laughed
