Search for her!!

Augustus threw the blanket away from his body. Only his shirt was removed that means he did not do anything. He was relieved but then the faint memory where he was kissing the woman, making him worry if he had not done anything further.

He felt the headache because of the hangover he had gotten. He got down the bed, picked his shirt and wore it. He found his phone and wallet was on the bedside table which amused him. “She did not take them?” he wondered and picked them up. “But where is she? I shall thank her for the last night,” Augustus murmured and looked around.

He checked the room but he did not find her. “She isn’t here,” mumbling he stepped towards the door when his foot hit against something sharp. “Ahh,” he winced in pain and quickly put aside his foot. He saw an earring on the floor and picked that up. “It must be hers,” murmuring he put it inside his pocket.

He wore the shoes which were placed beside the bed and walked out of the room, holding his head. The owner of the motel came to him and asked him if he enjoyed the night. Augustus gave a glare to him. “How much do I need to pay?” Augustus asked as he took out his wallet. 

“Fifty dollars,” the owner replied. Augustus found he had no change so he handed him thousand dollars and walked out from there. He took out his phone and called his secretary Luca Romano who answered the call in a second as if he was waiting for the call from his boss.

“Send the car to Divine Motel,” Augustus told Luca and disconnected the call. 

Luca looked at his phone with a baffled expression. “A motel?” he tilted his head and immediately looked for the told motel. 

Oppositely, Augustus was thinking about the woman who saved him last night. “How can she leave me here? She could have waited,” muttered Augustus. “Why the heck Luca is taking too much time?” the next second he turned angry. 

After waiting for fifteen minutes, a car came there and halted in front of him. The driver hastily got down the car and opened the backdoor for Augustus who got in and the car. The driver went back to his seat and drove to the Penthouse. 

Augustus had rested his head on the head restraint. “She saved me and did not even rob a single penny from me,” Augustus thought. He was so lost in the thoughts of the woman that he did not realize when he arrived the Penthouse. 

Luca was waiting for him outside the Penthouse. He opened the door for Augustus and wished him a good morning. He saw the state in which Augustus had returned home and handed him the hangover medicinal drink. “How much did you drink, Sir?” Luca concernedly said as he saw Augustus drinking the medicine. 

“Is everything ready?” Augustus asked once he was done drinking the medicine. Luca took the tiny medicine bottle from Augustus’s hand and gave a nod. Augustus walked inside the penthouse, straight to his room. 

Undressing his clothes, he went straight into the hot shower. He was still recalling about the moments with the mysterious woman but could not recall anything except a kiss. Slamming his hand against the wall, he flipped his hair back. “How could I forget?” Augustus was annoyed. 

He closed the tap and wrapped the bathrobe around his body. Getting out of the shower, he quickly did the brush and came out of the washroom after sometime.

He got ready for the office and came to breakfast table. Luca took out the chair for Augustus on which he sat and the food was served to him. “Sir, may I ask what were you doing in the motel?” Luca gathering his courage asked his boss.

“I want you to find a woman for me,” Augustus asserted.

“What?” Luca exclaimed. “Okay, Sir,” he replied the next second.

“Check the CCTVs near that motel. Last night, a woman dropped me there after I got drunk and was attacked by some goons or robbers. I do not remember exactly.” Luca got worried upon hearing that.

“Are you fine, Sir? They didn’t harm you, right?” Luca questioned.

“That woman saved me. Just look for her. You have a day to search her and bring her to me,” Augustus commanded and continued eating.

“Okay, Sir. I will look into that,” Luca assured his boss. He walked out from there, leaving Augustus behind. Once Augustus was done eating, he left for the office with Luca.

“Did you ever see the CEO from closely? Yesterday, when he came to the Customer Service Department, I saw him and my heart almost popped out. Those blue eyes like a gem, that pointed nose and perfectly chiselled jaw line made him no less than a Geek God,” a female employee was conversing with her friend while waiting for the elevator to open up. 

Augustus, who was passing by there with his secretary and other assistants to the VVIP Elevator heard the conversation. “What is your name, Miss?” Augustus asked when those two turned back along with the others employees who were also waiting for the elevator. 

Seeing the CEO in front of her, they all lowered their eyes and greeted him. Augustus stepped towards that female employee, took his hand out of his pocket and then grasped the identity card which was hanging around her neck.

“Alicia Warren,” Augustus read out the name. “You are fired. Clear your dues in the HR department within ten minutes,” Augustus announced in his cold tone and released his hand from the card.

Alicia got scared. “I am sorry, Sir but may I ask what did I do?” She asked and gazed into the eyes of Augustus.

“Do I need to tell?” Augustus asked her back. “You’ve only eight minutes left,” saying this Augustus walked ahead, leaving the woman in dismay.

Alicia ran to Luca and told him to help her. “Sorry, Miss Warren. You shall go to the HR department,” pronounced Luca and stepped into the VVIP elevator. The elevator was closed. Luca tried to talk with Augustus when he heard, “Luca, did you find about the woman?”

“Sir, I have talked with the police regarding this. By the evening, I will gather the information about her,” Luca informed Augustus. The elector opened up in the 20th floor. Augustus stepped out of the elevator and walked straight to the Conference room for the meeting with the Board of Directors.

Two hours later, when meeting was over Augustus went to his office. He could not stop thinking about the woman. He called in Luca who came inside.

“Did you get any information about the woman?” Augustus asked Luca who lowered his head.

“Sir, by the evening I will report everything related to her,” Luca pronounced. Augustus snickered and slammed his hand on the desk. “I want everything about her in the next ten minutes else say goodbye to your job,” Augustus threatened Luca who nodded and walked out of the Office Cubicle.

Augustus pinched the skin between his brows in the frustration and waited for Luca to come.
