24 Blake's POV

I don't know what is really going on with Clara and Tiffany anymore. The more I get concerned, the more I want her far away from Tiffany. I had few plans for the day and one of the plans is to meet Willy. I can't do anything about Clara if I don't have an insight about what or who is after her. I need to know that person who wants her dead or injured and I hope it's not Justin or Tiffany. If it's either of them, I wouldn't take pity on anybody.

'' Good morning Dolly, how are you doing?" I asked her with a smile which she returned instantly'' Good morning boss. I have cleared any meeting for the whole week. Willy was here to meet you the other time but he left when he couldn't get hold of you.''

'' Did he say anything when he came or dropped anything" I was getting impatient.

'' You should check your office first but I don't think he dropped anything. You have some little things to take care of before you travel to Paris for the meeting. I dropped the schedule on your desk. Have a wonderful day" the middle aged woman smiled at me.

Where was Dolly the whole time Mandy was tormenting me. She is so good at what she does and she has absolutely no time for chitchatting. I need to reward her but first things first, I need to contact Willy and get some work done.

I went to Clara's office and another set of flowers and gifts were carefully placed on her table. I hope the CCTV captured the face of the deliveryman. I left Clara's office in annoyance and called Willy instantly

" Dude, where you at?" I sounded rude but now is no time for familiarisation. " Is that how to greet your man" and my same old Willy never knows when to stop joking around.

" Morning. Can you come to my office when you are done. I heard you came over but I wasn't around. I'm leaving office by one, can you make it before one?"

" Lucky you, I'm okay by twelve. I have new things to tell you but I can't tell you over the phone. " and he disconnected the call. He should at least allow me say something before ending the call. I need to distract myself from all these. I needed to talk about the new D.B Android we are trying to produce. I called Dolly through the intercom and asked her to get Sean for me.

Few minutes later,a knock brought my attention back to where I was "Come in"

" Good morning Sean. It's been a while ,how have you been? We should catch up sometimes and have a bottle or two " we both laughed and he sat down.

" Are you calling me here as a boss or as Blake " he asked.

Let me tell you a short story, Sean is someone I know from someone. My sister liked him a lot and he also liked her back. I was always trying to scare him away, you know what big brothers do but as time went on, I realized he is not a bad boy and we became cool friends. We are not super close or best friends, but we give each other advice.

After the death of my sister, he was left devastated and it took him a long time to move on. But we have always kept in touch. He was one of the people who stood by me after my dad's death and he was there when I took the company from the scratch and made it what it was today. He used to be silly as a boy and was reckless but right now, he is what you can call " responsible".

"I called you here as Blake and boss. I need your help with something but let's discuss about the new D.B model we are trying to make. We tested it and I was hoping we could add another feature to it. The camera is so good and neat but I want something unique. I know we are the best tech in the world for now and I don't want that to change. And giving people new quality drive them to get the latest phone. What do you think " I asked him hoping he would have a solution.

" I think you are very right. We are launching it few months but were you not aware of the new feature added to it? While Clara was on sick leave, she called to know how things are going and I filled her in. She thought about things and gave us a new idea. She asked us to work more on our networking. I contacted the other departments and we worked on what she said. No matter where you are, even in desert, the new model would find internet connection. And when you are in a good place with good internet, the way your you download things get better. People download movies and all, and with this better network, they use just few minutes or seconds to download. it's made faster and easier" he explained everything clearly and now that I look at it, Clara is mine. She is everything you can ask for in a lady and she is so intelligent. No wonder she has her own office in her department.

" waaw, I didn't think about that before. That's a very nice improvement and I hope people love it when we launch it. Do you know if the department in charge of advertisement are making progress concerning the as "

" From what I heard, they plan on using the hottest celebrities. We would get them to sign a contract with us. I don't really know much about that for now " he explained calmly.

" Thank you very much. About calling you here as a Blake, I have a problem or let me say my girlfriend's problem is also mine. I might lose her any moment because of people following her. They want her dead, I mean Clara. I know you probably don't know anything but have you ever come across any deliveryman trying to drop something in her office."

" Now that you mentioned it, I came across a guy when she started working her. The guy's face was friendly and I think he is 6'1 in height. He has a bronze skin with blue eyes. He said he was a friend who wanted to congratulate another sweet friend. That's all I know about him " we are getting there.

" Thank you very much, you have been of great help "I said thankfully.

" If there is anything I can do to help, please contact me. I have started to see Clara as my sister even though we talk once in a while. She is smart and considerate" he said and stood up. " Have a good day " and he left.

I kept working to distract my self and when it was 12:30 Willy entered my office without knocking again

" Don't you learn? I told you to always knock before entering. Have your seat and brief me "

" You are really impatient huh! Well, like I said the other time, there is a new development. You probably know already that someone placed another set of gifts in her office. Thanks to the CCTV we were able to capture the face." he placed his laptop before me and I could see a man of about 6'1 dropping presents on her desk. The same bronze skin Sean talked about, we are progressing.

" But who's he. Any new thing about this man because he isn't Justin. He is another person entirely. Is he just a deliveryman?" I was getting impatient already.

"Can down bro, calm down. This person is not Justin and not a delivery man. He is the drug addicted ex boyfriend of Clara, Billy " my eyes widen instantly and I exclaimed

" Billy? Billy "

..

....

.... Who is really after Clara,it's getting complicated and serious but sooner or later the person behind this would be caught and dealt with severely. Drop your opinions. Thanks for reading
