Ellie nodded when the boy said his name was Theodore. 'What a clever name...' she thought to herself. She was about to leave when he asked if the house was hers. "It was my families... until they passed away, passing it into me along with the staff." Another moment of silence passed between the two. Ellie was about to say something when Sebastian knocked on the door softly. "My deepest apologies my young lady, but Mr. Vitolli has arrived for your meeting." Ellie nodded and gave a sigh. "I will make sure that you are well taken care of. I will see you later this evening." With that, Ellie turned and left the room, making her way to her study for the meeting.<br/><br/>Inside was a man sitting in the chair opposite of hers by the chessboard her father used all the time. "My aplogies Mr. Vitolli, I was dealing with a guest of mine." Ellie sat in the chair opposite him and crossed her legs. "What brings you all the way to England?" The man smiled under his mustache and spoke, he had a thick Italian accent, but Ellie could understand him perfectly. "Well, I was here to ask for more money, the factory in Italy had a great idea to possibly expand." Ellie walked to her desk and opened a drawer, pulled out a folder. She walked back to her seat and sat, opening up the file. "According to my files, you still have not given me the money that you owe from last months profits, and have not paid back your loan I gave." The man tried to speak but Ellie interrupted him. "So I will not be giving you further money until you have paid for the money you owe." She closed the file and the man began to sweat. He was angry and balled his fists in rage, he stood up quickly and flipped the chessboard, grabbing Ellie by the shirt and pulling her close to him. "Listen here you little brat!" He began to say, but Ellie just smiled. "Sebastian... would you please take out the trash? It's starting to reek." She was referring to Mr. Vitolli as trash, which made him even more angry, causing him to raise his hand to hit her.<br/><br/>Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
