Elizabeth's lonely world by Marybeth Hale (world best books to read txt) 📖

Elizabeth stood up as she finished a load of dishes. "Hey, Elizabeth. Your thirty minute break is here. Go relax." Her boss said as she dried her hands. Elizabeth walked through the busy kitchen as she walked to one of the employee lounges. "Hey, sexy. How about you and I go in the freezer and I'll give you my special sausage?" One of the chefs asked before Elizabeth scoffed. 

She kept walking without answering the chef though she knew he wouldn't stop. "Ugh, I wish I could take over this restaurant. I will make changes if I do." Elizabeth sat and started to relax. "What do you mean? This place is perfect." A waitress said as she walked in before Elizabeth started to chuckle. "No, this place isn't. But I will put up with up until I find a better job." Elizabeth said before she looked at the waitress. "I hope that you dont leave." The waitress said before she left as she walked out of the room. Elizabeth sighed as she shook her head and then sat back in her chair and then looked at her phone. "Elizabeth, three minutes. And get off your phone before I take it and give it a bath." Her boss said before Elizabeth stood up. Elizabeth stood up and and then sighed while putting her phone away as her boss left the room. "A job where I am mistreated. Yay, I hope I love it here." Elizabeth said as she walked to her station and felt her jaw drop as she seen the mountain of dishes. "What the hell if this? Is it buffet night?" Elizabeth asked before she went and started to do the dishes. Elizabeth couldn't wait to go home though she only had a pug waiting for her. "Hey, hottie. You wanna say yes to me?" He asked again before Elizabeth rolled here eyes. "Don't try. I would rather have a relationship then having to give your crusty ass dick." Elizabeth said as she kept working leaving the chef speechless. 

She felt proud of herself before the chef left her alone. "Oh well, this is my life now, I guess." Elizabeth said with a sigh as she carefully handled some chefs knifes. She didn't want to submit to the life she has for she wanted more, but she knew that complaining wouldn't help her. "Oh well, when it is my time, it's my time." Elizabeth said before she looked to the clock. "Oh goodness. It's time for me to go home." She said before she went and clocked out. "See you tomorrow." Her boss said before she walked to her car. Elizabeth looked up at the sky and then smiled as she watched the array of stars shine bright. "Another day, more money earned." Elizabeth said as she got into her car and started to drive home. Elizabeth smiled as she seen her pug watch her from the window. "I'm coming, shadow." She said as she got out and grabbed a bag.

"Hi, baby! Mommy is home!" Elizabeth said as shadow went to her excited.

Elizabeth giggled as she held her pug and then closed and locked the door before putting shadow down. "Time to make dinner for the both of us." Elizabeth said as she started to make dinner. Shadow ran around the room and ran outside as he needed to go to the bathroom. "Your such a silly boy. Come eat." Elizabeth said before she placed his food bowl down. Elizabeth went and started to make her own food as shadow ran in and went to eat. "What a perfect life. I wish I had it." Elizabeth said as she looked at her Instagram and seen married couples with their children. 

Elizabeth sighed as she sat down with her food and started to eat. "Oh well, our lives may not be perfect. But it's great." Elizabeth said before shadow laid next to her leg. He let out a sigh as he started to fall asleep before Elizabeth looked down at him. "I am guessing that it is time for bed." Elizabeth said as she got up and put her dish in the water and soap filled sink. She then turned and grunted as she picked up shadow. "We need to go on more walks. You are getting heavy." Elizabeth said before giving shadow's head a kiss and then laying him on his bed before she went and got changed. "Good thing tomorrow is my day off. I don't have to leave if I don't want to." Elizabeth said before she went and layed in bed. A car pulled up and parked as Elizabeth slept. 

 A man walked out of his car and grabbed a bouquet of roses and a box of chocolate. "If she is asleep, she better wake up soon." The man said to himself before he walked back to his car. He drove away a Elizabeth woke up scared, as sweat ran down her face. "I hate nightmares." Elizabeth said getting up and headed downstairs. 

"Oh. What's that?" Elizabeth said as she seen the box of chocolate. Elizabeth walked to the door and then opened the door and grabbed the box and the flowers. "These are pretty." Elizabeth said as she went to put the flowers in a vase. Elizabeth rubbed her eyes and then looked at the clock. She quietly walked back to bed and then layed in bed before putting sleeping sounds on and fell asleep again. "No. I don't want to wake up yet." Elizabeth groaned as the sunlight filled the room. Elizabeth groaned as she stood up and then went to start a bath. "A nice bath will calm me down." Elizabeth said as she heard a knock on the front door. "Oh, come on. I just want one day to relax." Elizabeth said as she put on a rope and then walked to the front door. "Hello? I'm busy." She said as she opened the door and seen the chef stare at her lustfully. "Ha. What does a stupid dishwasher like you have planned? Come on. Let me in and let me show you some fun." The chef said before Elizabeth slammed the door and then locked it before going back up the stairs. 

"Slut. I will fuck you!" The chef yelled before he turned around and left her property. "I will get rid of him. Whatever it takes too." Elizabeth said before she layed in her bath after taking taking the robe off. She sighed while she unknowingly got a text from her brother in law. Elizabeth sits up and then looked at the Alexa that she had. "Alexa, did I get any texts?" Elizabeth asked before she heard a ding. "Yes, one from your brother in law. Would you like me to read it?" Alexa said as Elizabeth stood up. "Yes, please." Elizabeth said before she went and got dressed. " 'Hey, Liz. I heard the chef you hate gave you a visit. Do you want me to get rid of him? I'll stay safe and make sure no one sees me at the same time.' Do you want me to call the cops ma'am?" Alexa asked before Elizabeth walked into the bathroom. "No. Shut off after deleting ur history, permanently." Elizabeth said before she heard another ding.

She knew that she had nothing to worry about since her friend was the voice and soul of Alexa. "Hello Elizabeth, shall I order your list?" Alexa asked before Elizabeth quickly ran in. "What do you mean my list?" Elizabeth asked as she forgot that Alexa could see everything. "Your lingerie list." Alexa said as she felt smug. "What do you want?" Elizabeth asked before she looked at her phone. "Convince your brother in law not to hurt anyone." Alexa said before Elizabeth sighed. "Call the police on both him and the chef." Elizabeth said before Alexa dinged. "Yes, ma'am." Alexa said before Elizabeth left the room and took shadow out to the backyard. 

Elizabeth sighed as she texted her brother in law that everything was fine, though she hated being blackmailed. "Ma'am, you did know I was kidding, right?" Alexa asked as Elizabeth looked down before she looked at Alexa surprised. "I know that I shouldn't hurt you like that. So I will play with you from time to time." Alexa said before Elizabeth chuckled to herself. "Well, can you still call the police on the chef? I want to put up a restraining order." Elizabeth said before she walked away. She started to feel frustrated that she knew that she had to quit to get the restraining order but she didn't want to find another job. Elizabeth sighed as she went to let shadow in and then went to look at take out Chinese menus. "Hmm, what shall I get for us?" Elizabeth asked as shadow ran around excited. 

 Elizabeth held up her phone and then started ordering dinner for the both of them. "Now, don't bark at the delivery person. I might have to lock you in the bedroom." Elizabeth said as she laid back on her couch. "Nope. Nope. You don't need that." Elizabeth said to herself as she pulled her hand away from a cigarette box. Elizabeth sighed as she watched her TV as she waited for food.
She picked up her phone and then looked at her contacts. "Oh, I wish I had someone to love." Elizabeth said as she realized that she was the only one in her family to be single. She sighed before she heard her doorbell and then went to get their food. "Evening, ma'am. Here's your food." The delivery boy said before he gave Elizabeth her food. "Thank you. Have a good night." Elizabeth said as she closed the door after giving the delivery boy a tip. Elizabeth sighed as she walked to her couch. "Food is here." Elizabeth said to herself as she got the food out. She sighed as she started to eat though she hated eating alone. "No one will love me." Elizabeth said as she watched TV as shadow licked her leg. "I know you love me, you silly pug." Elizabeth said before she started to pet shadow on the head. Elizabeth sat back after she made a plate for shadow. He whined as he watched her hand and then sat next to Elizabeth's leg.
