BUSINESS TYCOON BILL SKY IS HOLDING A FUNERAL FOR HIS FAMILY TODAY
3 days after the accident, another headline gave an uproar over Capital Z.
With Bill’s famous reputation, the news was spread all over the world.
“Lira, I need all the important documents on my table right now.”
Lira was in her office scrutinizing some pending documents for his CEO.
She could not contact Bill after the accident.
She seemed included in the list of people Bill didn’t want to speak with.
As Bill’s newly assigned secretary, their communication department was bugging her every day for their CEO’s whereabouts.
The media had gone mad with the issue of Bill Sky’s life and every TV station around the globe was yearning to interview him but they couldn’t get any hold of Bill.
Lira had no information about her boss.
She didn’t know where he was hiding as she had only limited knowledge about Bill Sky.
It seemed her boss, wanted it that way too.
Arabella was the only one who was familiar and knew him very well.
Today, she didn’t expect her boss to come out of the blue.
She was stunned for a moment but she quickly moved to hear the strict deep tone of Bill.
His vibe made Lira unable to breathe easily as his expression was heavy.
Absolutely, he was not in a good mood today.
The Bill Sky in front of her was not the usual Bill Sky with the suit and tie.
The man was wearing a sweater and rugged denim pants.
His hair was not combed and was messy covering his forehead.
He seemed like he just jumped out of his bed and went directly to his office.
He was like a handsome rebel boy next door type or a university hot bad boy elite on the campus.
She could say elite because Bill’s rugged look was still dazzling elegant.
His sexy tall figure and glass white skin could not hide his status in life.
He was the type that could still portray a rich handsome man even if he was wearing rags.
Lira could not believe seeing Bill Sky’s unusual looks today.
It was so different from the CEO of the Sky Corporation she knew.
Bill’s eyes were deep and emotions were hidden.
When she started working there, Bill was still aloof to her but not that strict.
Maybe because she was assigned there by his wife.
Sometimes, she could see his deep serious eyes sparked whenever his wife visits him.
He laughed naturally with his eyes laughing too.
Now, Lira believed that the sparks in his eyes had died and was impossible to spark again.
Is he really mourning? Lira couldn’t help to think about her boss.
At first, Lira was not included in the plan but sooner, Damien had contacted her.
“Lira, come and help me.” In the middle of the night, she received a call from Damien.
She knew he was not in a good state as his voice was weak and unstable.
How could she say no to Damien?
In the middle of the night, she drove for 2 hours to reach his place.
The location was quite far from the city.
When she reached the location, she was amazed by the big wooden villa.
She rushed inside to find Damien.
“Who are you?” An old woman who was still very elegant asked her.
She was shocked. She could not say a word that moment as Lira froze on her spot.
“Mmmm…” She lowered her head. Lira’s breathing was in a panic. “I’m here for Damien. I'm Lira.” She answered without seeing the woman’s eyes.
She remained her head low.
“Oh, he mentioned you to me. You can go inside now. I’m leaving. Call me if there’s something, okay?” The woman said and strode past her.
Lira heaved a sigh of relief.
She was about to enter the door but,
“Wait!” The old woman sounded again behind.
Lira’s heart almost dropped.
She could feel the woman had turned around.
She just prayed she was not going to walk back and see her face.
“Did we meet before? You seemed so familiar.” The old woman asked with a frown.
As a courtesy, Lira turned around smiled, and quickly lowered her head again.
“I’m sorry ma’am but I’m sure, I just met you today.” Lira tried her best to maintain her cool.
After Lira’s words, the old woman nodded and left.
Lira heaved another heavy sigh again.
Then she entered Damien’s room.
Seeing Damien, Lira was shocked.
He was lying on the bed with supporting oxygen on his nose and he had a drip on his wrist.
“Damien, what happened?” Lira didn’t expect that it was serious. She expected that Damien had at least a fever but it was beyond her imagination.
“Haha…” Damien chuckled a little. His expression was happy. Lira frowned. “I’m fine Lira, I did it for love,” Damien added with a cheerful tone. He seemed not experiencing any pain in his body as his expression was more than delighted.
Hearing Damien, Lira felt a spang of pain in her heart. When Damien mentioned love, there was only one person who came to her mind.
Arabella Jones.
Suppressing the pain in her heart, she smiled and came closer to Damien.
She held his forehead to feel his temperature.
He had a high temperature but Damien seemed not to feel it.
“I think you need to rest.” She spoke with full of concern with the guy who had only Arabella in mind.
For love, Lira didn’t even know why she was there when she was not even his girlfriend.
“I will later,” Damien answered. He closed his eyes for a little while then he opened and landed on hers.
Lira sighed. “Then, care to tell me what happened and why you called me to be here?” She couldn’t stop asking. She was really confused.
