Chapter 33: Chaos (i)
Roy felt bad but he couldn't give up so easily on her. He knew he was the one who had hurt her in the past, he persisted on persuading her.
"I have made a reservation somewhere very refreshing and relaxing. You can go out briefly with me and I will come back with you to help with work here". He said.
"Humm? Where's that?". She asked because she doesn't want to ruin his effort. "I booked a Spa for you at Milam Care Tour, they offer the best massage here in City B". Roy explained interestingly since he knew his family owned it.
"Alright then, you are lucky I was about leaving for the cafeteria. But please don't waste too much of my time, everything should be done quick".
Roy agreed with her and they both left the company, he drove off with her in his car.
Beauty, deeply within her, desired for a long relaxation. She knew her PA - Nancy won't be able to assist much on the contract she was working on.
..........
Someone who stays in the secret disturbing the peace of the innocent lives. Arthur had given Royce an act to carry out. Since Royce had been working with him, he had never seen his real face, they had only been communicating on phone, either through calls or text.
His voice transmits like that of an old man, Royce never thought he could have use a computer base mode, very daft indeed!
"Hello, how is work going?". Royce asked the attendant in Farinto mall, he wanted to act nice so he could receive whatever he came for on time.
"Hello sir, how may I help you?". She responded. "Nothing much, I am sure you would remember my face. I was here last time when a mad man came in to beat someone up". He insulted Maxson.
"Ohhh, you were the one beaten? I can remember". The lady said almost laughing.
Royce gave her an evil look to silent her, he then smiled to her so he could keep on putting up the fake act. "I'll actually love it if you could let me have access to the footage of that scene". He demanded.
"Huh? Sir, it is against the rule of our work here. If you really need it, you need to go ask the manager first". She explained while scared a little.
"Aren't you Carn Amy? Your younger sister- Carn Jan?". The lady gasped. "Sirrr, how do you?". She didn't finish talking when he cut her off.
"Your sister works at Fiddle World restaurant. Well I am the director of the restaurant, if you don't want her to loose her job, release the footage now!". He moved closer to her giving a wicked grin.
"Al-al-al-al alright sir". She stammered and went in to get the footage.
.........
It was late in the night, the birds had flew to their home to lay low. After the wandering of the day, both humans and animals had gone to oversee their night rest.
Contrarily, it wasn't so for Scott. He was woken up with a night call, his phone had been placed on vibration making it easier to disrupt his sleep. The phone made a deafening vibration, while he briefly stopped it in order to avoid waking Flora up.
He picked his phone and walked to his study room, he was really enjoying his night rest with his beautiful wife. He wondered why Joel had called him, he knew it must be something very important for him to have called so late this night.
"Hello boss". Joel sounded desperately, trying to brush everything up. "Something urgent? Shoot!". Scott ordered.
"Our stocks are plummeting, a footage was released late this night which affected the company's stocks. I have checked the market and the public assessment, the footage has really affected our stocks sir". He explained hurriedly.
"Call the company's public affairs and arrange for a conference. Also, arrange for a board meeting early tomorrow morning". Scott reproved his cold aura.
"Alright boss". Joel was about ending the call to relay his order, but Scott added. "Send me the footage and prepare yourself to come pick me up very early in the morning. Keep suppressing those public comments and opinion, I'll work from my side here also".
"Yes boss, the video had been sent to you". Joel said.
"Alright, start working now!". Scott massaged his temple, he switched on his system and started working.
After working for some minutes, he opened the footage and watch. In the video, he saw Maxson beating Royce with heavy hits, there was a woman by their side, no one could hear what they were saying, seems the audio had been tampered with.
Scott sighed and dropped a text in Joel's dm, he told him to prepare a video call with all the board members immediately.
In the bedroom, Flora had woken up alone on the huge bed, she opened her eyes seeing the bed empty. She wondered why he would always work tirelessly, she had woken up because she was a little hungry and thirsty.
She wore a babouche lying near the bed on the tiled rugged floor, yawning as she walk out of the room. While she intended to get something to eat from the kitchen before checking up on Scott, she tripped down the stairs and rolled down to the floor. "Ouchhhhhh".
Scott who was in a meeting heard the loud bang of something falling, he immediately ended the meeting, stood up and went to check. "What are you looking for by this time of the night?". He asked as he carried her in a princess style to the sofa.
"Ouch". Flora replied with a groan, she had fractured her right ankle, he bent down to check on her leg. "Sorry" - He sighed! "Let me get you the first aid, I'll be back". Scott stood up and left.
Few seconds later, he came back treating her leg, he applied certain creams for fractures and gave her pills to curb the pain she might be feeling. He also gave her a warm massage and a hot compressed before bringing her back inside the bedroom.
"I am hungry". Flora pouted her sexy lips to him. "I was about getting something for you, what would you like to eat?". He asked kissing her forehead.
"Chicken and a yogurt drink". She smiled as she speak. "As your lordship pleases". He said and laughed, Flora blushed as he left.
After giving her what she requested for, Scott went back to his study room. He call Plum, gave him an order to arrange for a meeting in the camp. He did this on time so he could join his injured wife.
"Boss, we haven't found anything much on who wanted to hurt Madam, we only got the young man who led her into the hotel". Prum said immediately.
"I'll oversee that tomorrow". He said and left the room.
.........
Long at Milam Care Tour, after Roy and Beauty had enjoyed the spa services, they went to the bar because Beauty wanted to. Roy intended to satisfy her since he wanted to gain back her heart.
After persuading her not to drink too much, she insisted but to satisfy herself.
Roy couldn't take her to her home, he instead went to his own place since his place was nearer.
In the morning when Beauty woke up, she realized someone was sleeping beside her. She remembered she wasn't staying with Flora anymore, she stood up immediately when realization dawned on her.
"Where am I?". She asked looking around. Her voice woke Roy up. "Huh? Don't you remember everything that happened yesterday?". He asked sighing.
"Huh? How did I end up with you and why am I in your room". Beauty shouted in a rage.
Roy got up from the bed to apologize and explain to her. "If you have forgotten I'll remind you. You insisted on going to the bar after we left the spa, you said you want to drink everything you order that I shouldn't stop you. When you got yourself so drunk, I had to bring you to my place since it was so late and morever, your place is more distanced than mine".
Roy explained with uneasiness, he contemplated on his actions, has he done anything wrong by helping her to his home?
Beauty could see he was frustrated, she calmed down since this wasn't the first time they would be together.
She cleared her throat before responding. "It alright, I need to shower and dress up or else I'll be late for work. Just leave the room for me please". She declared.
Before she got done, Roy had sent some of his servants to deliver a new set of office cloth to Beauty.
