After hanging up the call Lucas kissed Catherine again and picked her to take her to his office lounge.
They had sex like crazy; luckily the room was soundproof otherwise whole office would have heard Catherine’s moans.
Catherine was tired, and she slept. Lucas got up from the bed and went to the bathroom.
Under the running water of the shower, one thing was bothering him; he was imaging Carol all the time. He was seeing Carol’s face instead of Catherine.
He felt so excited just with one kiss because his mind was full of Carol. He just wants to taste the soft lips of Carol, at this moment it clicked him that he had a meeting.
He cursed himself and walked out of the bathroom immediately and got ready, before leaving he saw Catherine sleeping, he felt disgusted when he realized that he had sex with Catherine.
Because there were many love bites on her body, which he had not given. He left a note for her saying, “I have important meeting, see you tonight”
He rushed to the café where the meeting was about to happen, but by the time he reached the café meeting was over and no one was present there.
He immediately dialed Carol’s number, once she answered the call he asked, “Is the meeting over?”
Carol replied, “Yes, Mr. William, meeting got completed half an hour back”
He asked hurriedly, “Where are you? I mean where Dad is?”
Carol replied in her usual professional tone, “Mr. William, we are back to the office, if you want to meet Mr. William senior you can come to the office”
Lucas hung up the call and ordered the driver to go to Alexander’s office.
When Lucas reached Alexander’s office and entered the office after knocking, Carol was already inside and discussing something with Alex.
Alex was pissed on Lucas and when he saw Lucas, he noticed love bites on his neck, before Lucas could explain anything Alex said in a pissed tone, “Lucas, I think I taught you to keep your personal and professional life on different paths”
Lucas didn’t understand what Alex was talking about, he said, “Dad, I know and I do that”
Alex felt more pissed because he had committed to the person that Lucas will join the meeting but he had to face embarrassment because of Lucas.
He said boldly, “So making love in office hours and forgetting important meetings, is the way you keep your personal and professional life away from each other”
Lucas felt embarrassed, not because Alex embarrassed him in front of his employee or he mentioned his personal life but because everything happened in front of Carol.
He doesn’t know why but he didn’t want Carol to know that he had sex with another girl, although he knows that the girl he had sex with was his wife but still he was not comfortable.
Alex looked at Carol and said in gentle words, “Carol, please give him the details of the meetings”
Carol nodded and left Alex’s office thinking that father and son might want to discuss something in private.
The moment Carol closed the door, Lucas said, “Dad I am really sorry, there will be no next time”
Alex knew that Lucas was a responsible person and he had managed the business very well from a very young age, so he didn’t drag the matter anymore.
Alex said, “Its fine, now I want you to focus more on this project and also have you thought about when to start the handover process, I want to take retirement as early possible”
Lucas nodded and said, “Dad, I am ready to take over your position, you can trust me”
Alex felt happy and nodded, Lucas continued, “Dad, I want one favor from you”
Alex said, “Yes, tell me son”
Lucas said, “Dad, my secretary is about to retire so if I can hire Miss. Carol as my secretary after you, it will be great, as she already knows the work so I won’t have to explain her work”
Alex smiled and said, “I don’t have any problem, and I can assure you that you will never regret hiring her as your secretary”
Lucas nodded and left Alex’s office. Lucas headed to Carol’s office and entered after knocking gently.
When he entered Carol seems to be so busy that she didn’t hear the knock on the door, she was busy reading some file, she was holding a pen between her fingers and sometimes she will put that pen on her lips, thinking something, she had made messy bun but her few hairs were falling on her face, making her look more beautiful.
Lucas stood there without saying anything and enjoying the view, feeling the presence of someone Carol looked up and stood hurriedly and said, “Oh! I am sorry Mr. William, I didn’t see you coming”
Lucas walked to her working table and said, “I was the meeting details”
Carol nodded and turned to look for the file, now Carol’s back was facing Lucas, he could see her perfect figure.
Lucas was feeling ashamed of himself to look at her like a pervert, but he was unable to control his eyes. He had clenched his palms, controlling himself not to touch her.
He wanted to hug her from behind, it was frustrating him because he was not a master of his body anymore.
Carol pulled out the file from the rack and turned and gave the file to Lucas with her professional smile and said, “Here Mr. William all the details of the meeting are in this file”
Lucas took the file from her hand and walked out without saying anything.
Carol, unaware of her effect on Lucas, didn’t mind and again started working.
Lucas went back to his office and dialed a number and said, “I want you in my office in the next fifteen minutes” saying that he hung up the call.
Exactly at fourteenth minute his office door knocked and a person entered after Lucas’s permission.
After the person sat in front of him Lucas said, “You are my best detective and the work which I am going to give you should be very confidential”
