Chapter 17

Three years later ...

"Mom, don't you know where Camilla is? Tell me."

"Could you Kobe, I told you I didn't know? It's also your fault why your husband left you. Now if you want her back to you you have to find him and show him that you are worthy. "

I was so annoyed that I scratched my neck because I had been teasing mama a few times to tell me where Camilla was.  I did what they wanted, I was now in charge of my father's business.  At first, I had no appetite because it seemed boring, but not now.  I learned and learned a lot from my parents ’businesses.

"Son, it's better that you just enjoy your current position as a president of the company. You know that in the future you will meet Camilla, that is if she doesn't find anyone else."  Mama said smiling and sipped coffee.

I was shaken because he even got to harass me.  I can't imagine Camilla having another man with her.

"She's my wife already,"  I answered angrily and stood up.

"Fine."  Mom answered.

Camilla where are you?  I'm going crazy thinking of you what else do you want?  I am now paying for my sin with you because of how I feel now.  What else do you want?  If you don't want to show me it's not my problem anyway.  Fuck!

I was annoyed when I got in the car because I was going to a meeting today with one of our company's clients.  In the past three years, I have met women but I still miss Camilla.

While on the road my phone rang and when I peeked at it Adrian was calling.  I touched it and put the headset on my ear.

"Brod, Vincent invited us to his bar tonight for the good running of his business for the three years we've been working together."

Adrian's news, I also saw that Vincent's secretary had a message in my email.

"There's also a message to me, I don't know if I can go."  I just answer.

"You're serious about the job you've been given, just keep it up."  It's an annoying answer while laughing.

"Nonsense, just let me know. Nicko is coming too?"  I asked him.  Nicko and I were ok, after our fight because we are still friends.

"I didn't know he was out of town."  Answer it.

"Ok, I'll just go when I have free time."  I just answered and turned off my phone.

I continued driving and in just a few minutes I reached the company.  Everyone who sees me and I meet them respects me but all that I ignored, I just kept on entering the elevator.  But before the door closed, a blonde woman entered.

"Thanks, I'm still catching up."  Smiling it says.

I just ignored her because I wanted to tell her she couldn’t come with me and this elevator was just for the president of the company.  But she seemed to be in a hurry so I just let her.

She touches number 8 while my office was on the 9th floor.

"The good thing about it is the cold, I just took the elevator with air conditioning."

I heard her say to my side but I didn't answer her, I noticed that she was sexy because of the beautiful shape of her body when she entered earlier.

"What is your position here?"

"Why?"  I seriously replied to her that she was silent and she did not speak so I laughed in my mind until she came out and I did not look back.

Just a few moments later, my floor followed, I walked to my office while adjusting my necktie.  When I got to the door it was open so I was surprised, I slowly opened it and went inside.  Suddenly someone hugged me and kissed me on the lips.

"Hi, babe? I miss you so much!"

I couldn't speak because Claire, one of my investor's daughters, suddenly kissed me.  I was able to stand for one night because I was so drunk but when I woke up I didn't feel like anything had happened to us.

"Claire, what are you doing here?"  I asked angrily and sat down as if I had suddenly lost my mood.

"What kind of question is that? Of course, I miss you and ..." Her language was seductive and she even bit his lower lip.

"I have a meeting today,"  I answered and I stood up and I noticed that my secretary was gone.  If it wasn’t just the daughter of one of our investors I will send her away now.  Samantha has disappeared from my life because she married a foreigner, now it's Claire.

"You're annoying me with your naughtiness."  She said and hugged my back.

I felt its healthy breasts so I avoided it immediately because I was weak when it came to this thing.

"Claire, you know I'm married,"  I told her seriously.

"Yes I know, but where is she? Didn't she leave you? But I'm here for you. It doesn't matter like her because she left you."  Disgusted it says.

Shit!  I was cheap in my mind instead of her cheap.

"Later Claire, I have an important meeting today ok?"  I said calmly and looked at my phone.  I hurried out the door even though she was calling me.

I called my secretary to meet me at the meeting.  I continued to walk to the elevator as it closed and I was breathing well because Claire couldn't catch up.  What Adrian said about inviting Vincent came to my mind and it looked like I would be going there because I knew Claire wouldn’t stop.

----------

After the two-hour meeting, I went home first, still here where Camilla and I live.  Sometimes I think of selling it. After all, I feel like I'm losing hope of seeing her because I've already tried to find Camilla.  I used my money for and my influence I could only see her but still nothing.

I took a beer out of the fridge and opened it and sniffed immediately, I climbed into the room and I plan to take a nap first.  I went to bed after I finished my beer and immediately fell asleep.

---------

Camilla ... Camilla ...

I suddenly woke up and sat down because I dreamed of Camilla again.  I got up and threw the blanket that was blocking my body, I went to the shower and let my naked body get wet.

You're not really for me Camilla if you don't want to search it's up to you.  Maybe I need to forget you because I'm like a fool waiting for nothing.

I hit the wall because I was pissed, I leaned my head and bowed with my eyes closed.  Then I went out of the bathroom, it was late at night because it was dark outside the window.

My phone rang and there was no one else but Adrian I was properly dressed.

"Brod what?"

"I'll go,"  I answer immediately.

"Nice, good boy."  At once it laughed on the other line.

"Fuck you,"  I answered and I killed him.

After I checked what I was wearing I exited the room straight up the stairs.  I immediately went to the parking lot and took my car.  Before leaving, I was greeted by two guards who are still guarding it.

I quickly got to where I was going and even caught up with Adrian outside who was smoking.

"Are you still there?"  I asked politely and took a cigarette stick from the box he handed me.

"I'll just get there too."  Answer it and hit puff.

My eyes wandered around because it was especially beautiful and the cleanliness of the surroundings.  It's only now that Adrian and I have been here since its opening and since then it's gone because I'm busy with my business and so is Adrian.  We met Vincent at a bar back then and became friends as well, we promised we would support his business.

"How are you looking for Camilla?"  Question it.

I frowned as I looked at him.  "I don't have time for the person who doesn't want to search."  I just answered and mumbled.

"It's been a while, what's the news about her? Is she have a boyfriend? Or did you not even get her pregnant, Kobe?"

I was shocked because I once thought about whether I got Camilla pregnant.  Because I touched her a few times before.

"The boss is already waiting for you."

At the same time Adrian and I turned to the spoke behind us and I was even surprised to see the woman I had seen earlier in the elevator.  Even she was stunned as well.

"Don't tell me you're going to meet? You didn't tell me that, Kobe."  Laughing says, Adrian.

"I-It's you."  Embarrassed it says.

"You work here?"  I just asked and she nodded.

"All right, I'm about to go inside."  Goodbye to it.

Adrian and I left again and I threw away the cigarette that was only half full.

"Where did you meet that? She's also beautiful but Camilla is still more beautiful."  Its language.

I no longer answered what he said and we started walking towards the entrance.
