267 Anything for you sir !!!
"You what?"
"I work with him. I am an intern".
"Tonight is really going to be wonderful", muttered Sebastian under his breath, but that was clearly audible.
Katherine looked at Akira and shook her head out of disappointment.
She knew her own father bone by bone and she knew that it was not going to work out. But she still accompanied Akira because she still had a wick of hope burning in her heart. But he extinguished it in an instant.
"Sir, I have a small request and it would be really kind of you if you could just spare a couple of your minutes for that".
"Listen, young lady, what happened to your boss is none of my concern. So if you would excuse me then I would like to attend to matters that are really important".
"But he is your son, Sir".
"He never was".
Saying that Sebastian tuned to walk back towards his room but his pace was halted as he saw her kneeling on the floor.
"He is not just my boss. He is all that I have in my life. He is the last straw of hope that my drowning heart has grabbed onto. Please don't snatch that away. I beg of you. Please help us in finding him. I know he out there, somewhere. With your resources, I know you can and... ".
"Get up Akira, there are more chances for a stone to melt for you than this man. Do not kneel in front of him and insult yourself", saying that Katherine put her hand around Akira's shoulder and tried to help her get up, but she resisted and continued.
"I will do anything that is possible under my control. I don't have much money on me right now but I can come and work for your company for years without pay. But please help me right now".
Intrigued with her sustenance, Sebastian turned towards her and with a straight poker face he asked,
"How do you know that he is still alive?"
"You think he has survived that fall all miraculously and he is sitting there waiting for you to come and rescue him?"
Those were the questions that she didn't want to hear. Those were the questions which were deliberately directed at her to weaken her up.
So she clenched her fists and tried to reply as politely as possible.,
"I know for sure that he is fine. Because in no way he can desert me midway like this. There is no logical explanation for this, but I know that he is still there and we need to find him".
He looked at her for a second and then asked,
"So what do you need?"
Her eyes gleamed with hope and she said,
"I would need a dedicated military grade search party, well equipped with everything. And I need to go along with them to Manaus right now. I know its possible for you to do all of it. I know you hate Raymond but I cannot believe that you can do anything to harm him".
She saw him pondering and that gave her hope to bank on.
But then they all heard some voices from upstairs,
"Baby, are you going to be late to bed tonight?"
"Baby see I wore this for you".
Sebastian raised his hand and held his temple all irritated and then spoke with a harsh tone,
"How many times have I told you to not to interrupt me when I am in a meeting or a discussion".
"Oops, I thought they were the new ones. They looked all pretty".
"I thought they were joining us", and saying that they both giggled and went back to the bedroom.
Seeing the two bimbos going inside all giggling, Katherine's nerves just flinched.
"So this was the important matter that you had to attend to?"
Katherine questioned him in disbelief and then unable to see this farce anymore, she stormed out off the hall and said to Akira.
"Come out once you realize that all your efforts went into the drain".
All dejected even Akira was about to get up when she heard him speak,
"Let's hypothetically assume, that I help you out. Then what do I get in return for my help?"
"Anything, I would do anything, Sir. Please just help me this one time", saying that she brought her hands forward and folded them together in front of him as if she was praying to him for the last bit of mercy that she was counting on.
He looked at her, all kneeling down in the mode of complete surrender and asked,
"Anything?"
"Yes sir, anything that is under my control".
"Then remember that in a business deal there is no backing out".
"I will not sir".
"Then are you ready to spend the night in my bed?"
