48 Explanations and Discussions

"How egoistic you are Ms.Miller, I am not going to keep my mouth shut and accept whatever you do. I am going to say everything before media," saying that Asher stormed out of the secured room

"What? You won't do that," Louisa shouted following him but the main door closed abruptly

"What the fuck?" Louisa shrieked and punched the security code to open the door

"Why the hell is this password not working?" Louisa yelled irritated when the passcode kept showing Error

"The passcode I am giving is not working but Asher was able to enter the room, so did he hack the password and changed it? Oh my God!!" Louisa shrieked with horror

"Now how can I go out? Neither I have my mobile with me to pass this information to anyone nor I have any access to something from which I can hack the code and open the door. Why is this happening to me? What had changed since yesterday? Why is everything so against me?" Louisa wondered strolling all over the room

���Something is seriously wrong," Louisa thought looking at the newspapers lying on the desk

Louisa closely observed the picture. "This one doesn't look morphed, it is looking exactly like we both are head over heels for one another but how can anyone get this kind of picture when I am not even close to Asher?"

"I was unconscious for most of the time yesterday so was this picture taken at that time? But I am looking wide awake in these pictures. Was this done by Ivan? Why will he want to tag me with another guy? Is Ivan for real or is this an illusion of mine? Everyone pushed me away by saying I started hallucinating again; is that true? Why is Asher accusing me about the picture and why did Elena post like that even after knowing about me? What is happening around me? Am I being played?" Louisa shrieked

Louisa's head started aching as the pressure mounted up. "The headache started again; God this is unbearable" Louisa cried clutching her head in her hands

"Someone please open the door, I need to have my medication" Louisa yelled when she started losing grip on herself as her heart started beating at abrupt phase and her head started spinning

Louisa kept banging on the table until the time she lost her consciousness

"Gentlemen, why don't you understand that we have no idea why Elena posted like that, and even we are searching for her whereabouts. We are trying every possible way to find her, we are even feeling that she is in some kind of threat as we can't reach her mobile and we are unable to track that," Oliver explained to the people present in the lounge

"Mr. Miller, so you are saying that you people have no idea how that picture was taken just like us, okay we accept that as even we have no idea how Asher is in that picture. But Elena who is supposedly your daughter's best friend and has a huge fan name for herself in the music industry she posted a message supporting them. This can't be normal. She has a huge fan following and now everyone who was just speculating about this just got confirmation and the media started pressuring us. They are pressurizing us to issue a statement; even our shares are getting fluctuated. We need to stop them from doing more speculations" Scot Renz, Chief assistant of the Carters spoke

"Mr.Renz, I do get the reason for your worries. I just want you people to know that we both are sailing on the same ship. I am too in the deep pit just like you people. I know that Elena posted this and even if I am in your place, I will be doubting just like you people. But here we really have no idea about Elena; we have contacted everyone from her family to friends, her personal assistant, driver, watchman everyone. We didn't leave a single clue yet we can't find her. Mr. Broad, why don't you explain them?" Oliver said turning towards his left where Henry Broad is sitting

"Whatever Mr. Miller said is truth. We have been using all our sources. You know how strong a base I have and you have a clear idea about my network so I think we don't need to prove anything" Henry shrugged

"If you still think that we have hidden Elena somewhere, you are free to do your own investigation and if you find her anywhere; make her meet us. Louisa will be relieved after meeting her best friend. She is being worried for her best friend's safety and security," Oliver spoke to them

"Where is your daughter, the princess of Miller Empire Mr. Miller?" Jordan questioned

"She is in close quarters Mr.Carter; can't I keep my daughter in a secured place just like the way you have done for your son?" Oliver questioned

"I am not securing my son," Jordan replied

"Then why is he hiding?" Oliver smirked

"He is not hiding Mr. Miller; he is just dealing with the mess this picture and your daughter's best friend created. He will be here anytime soon. So it will be better if you call your daughter too; it is better if the people involved in it directly discuss the matter and settle the issue," Jordan said to Oliver

Oliver thought for a minute and looked at Henry Broad for a suggestion.

"Why don't we elders discuss the thing without involving our children in it? They are young so they will obviously be a little impulsive. So I think it will be better if we discuss the matter and settle it. If both parties understand the matter clearly we can give a statement which will bear positive results in both the interests. What say?" Henry Broad smiled

"Well…" Jordan was about to reply but was cut short when the main door was open ajar

"Hello Gentlemen, missed me?" Asher questioned walking into the room dressed in an Olive colored three-piece suit

"Hello, Mr. Miller, nice meeting you. You are an inspiration to many like us. So it's obviously an honor to meet you" Asher said forwarding his hand to Oliver

"Well, I too heard many accolades about the youngest sensation and wanted to meet you but seems like you hate public appearances. It took much time to meet you but finally this happened," Oliver said shaking Asher's extended hand

"There is a reason for my hatred for public appearances Mr. Miller; people love creating unnecessary rumors and media loves publishing fake things. Well, why am I even explaining when you have a clear example before you," Asher said pointing towards the newspaper which is lying on the table.

"Looks like you know how to play games with words?" Oliver said to him

"Not as experienced as you and your darling daughter," Asher smirked

"I think you love losing control over your tongue Carter," Oliver said in a serious tone

"You would have an idea on that Mr. Miller; your daughter has this habit. We are amateurs in this but your daughter is a total expert" Asher scoffed
