Augustus was greatly shocked by her actions today. He looked down at her with deep eyes. Her long eyelashes were covering her eyes, her facial features were really beautiful. He was mesmerized by her concern.

Although, he was annoyed by her just now and threw the glass on the floor intentionally. But when he saw her walk through shattered glass with worry on her face.

He felt happy in his heart and pretended to be innocent and injured.

After massaging for a few minutes, Lisa realized she had come really close to this man just now without thinking. She looked up and met his deep gaze on her.

She asked embarrassedly “Still hurting?”

He shook his head. Lisa released his hand and took a step back. “I’ll go and bring ice for you.”

“No need,” Augustus replied instantly, looking at his hand. He then asked, “What were you both laughing at.?”

Before Lisa could reply Lester said first, “Miss Lisa and Boss are wearing the same color today.”

Lisa stared at Lester. Lester smiled apologetically at her.

“Why did she point at you then.?” Augustus asked confusingly, tapping at the table.

“Oh, Well.. Miss Lisa thinks you look like James Bond.” Lester said cheerfully.

“Hmmm... James Bond.” Augustus' lips slightly curved when hearing this.

Lisa’s face flushed red from embarrassment by hearing these words.

The next moment, Augustus approached her and held her waist tightly, and asked Lester, “How do we look together? Didn’t we look like a great couple.?”

“Indeed Boss,” Lester replied honestly.

Lisa felt his grip on her body. There was a sudden feeling of warmth in her heart. She couldn’t push him at all but she felt a little annoyed if his hand was injured. How could he hold her so tightly? She realized she was tricked by him, and she stared at him angrily.

Augustus ignored her stare and asked Lester to click their picture. “Come on Lisa, smile, it's just a picture.” He said to her,

Lester clicked their picture and showed it to his Boss. Augustus looked at the mobile and showed it to Lisa, “See, we both look great together.” He said proudly.

Lisa shrugged in his hold and he released her quickly. Lisa calmed herself and said instantly, “Mr. Augustus I told you yesterday ...”

Before she could complete her sentence. He cut her off and said, “I know you are a widow, so what? Who cares? It’s not a crime to be a widow. No one can control its own fate. You are free to do anything until you truly want to. So stop pretending that your hands are tied.”

Lisa looked at him in disbelief. Just then he took out his card and gave it to her. “This is my personal number. I won’t be able to visit here daily as I have other projects too.  If you need me you are free to call me anytime until you want to, Lisa.” He looked deeply at her and left.

Lisa was dumbfounded and kept looking at his name on the card. “Augustus Carlos.”

Lisa came back to her office and asked the cleaner to clean the glass in the hall. For the whole day, she couldn’t focus on her work and kept thinking about Augustus' words. Maybe he is right, it’s not a crime if I’m a widow. It’s just in my destiny to be like this.

What happened yesterday, she felt very guilty and after thinking for a long time, she had decided that she would try her best behavior with Mr. Augustus. And will never offend him in the future. That’s the reason why she was so concerned about him just now and also massaged his hand to relieve the pain.

But again, she has been tricked by him. She sighed frustratingly, leaning on her chair, eyes closed.

There was a knock on the door, she said “Come in” while keeping her eyes closed.

“Hey ., you’re not allowed to sleep in your office.” A voice came in a teasing tone.

She opened her eyes and sat straight up, maintaining her calm posture. “I was just resting my eyes,” she explained.

“Gotcha.! I scared you. Didn’t I?” Cristian said, smiling wickedly.

Lisa rolled her eyes and asked calmly. “What are you doing in my office.?”

“I came here for some work and saw nobody was there at the reception desk. I thought I should inform you. You know, if someone complains it would be a great problem for you to handle. As your new Manager.” He explained.

“Oh.. in that case. I’ll go and see what’s the matter. Thank you for informing me.” She said embarrassedly and left the office.

When she reaches the desk. As expected, there was no one. She frowned, looked left and right but Anna was nowhere to be seen. She stands behind the desk looking around. Just then, the main door opened and a lady entered with a strong scent of perfume all over her body. Lisa frowned and looked at the woman.

“Where is Augustus? Tell him Giovanna is here to meet him.” She said in a commanding tone.

Lisa felt some negative vibes from that woman. She nodded and called the Presidential Suite. Ring ... Ring ... Ring .. nobody answered. She tried again, no response.

She looked at the woman in front of her and said apologetically, “No one is picking up the call at the Presidential Suite.”

The woman got angry and asked irritatedly, “Give me his room card.”

Lisa said nervously, “Sorry Ma’am I cannot give you a room card without identifying you.”

“What do you mean.?” She asked through clenched teeth.

“What is your relation.?” Lisa asked hesitantly.

“I am his fiancé.” The woman held her chin high and answered arrogantly.

Fiancé? What? Is Mr. Augustus engaged? I have never seen him wearing a ring and if she is his fiancé why she didn’t know where he is right now? Lisa’s mind was in a mess. She looked at her with suspicious eyes.

The woman cleared her throat and sneered, “What now.? Give me the card or I will talk to your Manager.”

Lisa smiled and said, “I am the Manager, ma’am.”

The woman was stunned and looked at her in displeasure. “Look at me..! Why do you think I lie.? I can show you my I’d if you want to check.” She offered.

Lisa looked at the woman carefully. She was very beautiful and could be described as an eye-catching beauty. She had an oval face, straight eyebrows, a straight nose, smallmouth, and white skin. She had slightly curly short hair, delicate makeup, and a black and white sleeveless suit which looked very decent. She was simply an exceptionally gorgeous woman.

Lisa truly believed her but still, she had to inform Mr. Augustus about it. What if he gets angry and fires her.? She can’t offend him.

After thinking for a while, Lisa said politely, “Ma’am just a moment please.” She went back to her office, picked up her phone, and dialed Augustus’s number she had saved after coming back from the meeting.

Ring ... Ring ... Ring ...

Nobody picked it. She went back with her phone and her phone rang. She looked down and it was Augustus. She answered. “Hello, Mr. Augustus.”

“Lisa, what’s the matter?” He asked in a deep and low voice.

“There's a woman saying she is your fiancé and asking for your room card. Her name is Giovanna.” She told him.

Augustus asked confusingly. “So?”

“So, I don’t know if she is telling the truth. Should I give her your card.? I need to identify.” She asked

Augustus was stunned for a moment and he thought to himself. This woman is really interested, she didn’t know anything, that's why she called me bachelor yesterday. Such a fool.

While Augustus was lost in his thoughts. Lisa called him, “Mr. Augustus.. Are you there.?”

“Hmm..” he replied.

“What should I do.?” She asked anxiously.

Just then Giovanna snatched her phone and said angrily, “Augustus where are you? Why you’re not answering my calls.?”

“Giovanna I am busy.” He said straightly.

“This... Your useless Manager is not handing me the key card. Fired her right now.” She demanded.

“Giovanna.! She was doing her job. I am busy and I won't be able to meet you when I'm free. I'll let you know.” He knew she wouldn't go easily and added, “By the way, don’t try to make a fuss or force her for a room card. You know she is a psychopath. What if she breaks your leg in order to stop you from going in. How would it be like to live with a broken leg..?”

Giovanna looked at her legs and then the lady opposite her. She felt a sense of fear and didn’t say anything. Augustus smiled wickedly. He knew he succeeded so he said in a concerned tone, “You go back and take care of yourself. No need to argue with her, I won't be able to see you with a broken leg.”

Giovanna said panicked. “Okay” handed her the phone. She turned around and ran away like she had seen a ghost.

Lisa looked at her back wondering what happened. Then she looked at her phone and saw that the call was still connected.
