Chapter 142: Shock

[Eleanor's POV]

The day had flown by pretty quickly, and soon the twenty four hours were over.

I'd never seen Damon like this before, he had looked like he was at his wits end, was utterly tired and had given up.

He'd been working hard since the first challenge, and I appreciated this, but I wasn't going to let myself get eliminated due to his negligence.

I'm sure he knew this too, we all had something to lose or gain, and we would all stop at nothing to get what we wanted, no matter what the cost.

Before the challenge, I had a goal coming here, and I wasn't going to let him be a distraction.

I needed this internship program, if I couldn't get this role, I would be forced to go back to Oxford.

I didn't want this for myself, I didn't want to be controlled for the rest of my life, like a leash was on me. I wanted to be free! Free to explore! To live my life! To make friends, to fall in love.
