Chapter 18 Pen drive is misssing

It was 2'o clock and the meeting was about to start in 15 minutes. Liza washed her face, she was moving her hands in her hand bag to pick the pen drive in which their presentation was saved while Aman was waiting for her to go to the meeting hall. Liza was moving her hand again and again but she was unable to find the pen drive , she frowned.Then she started emptying her bag , it was empty now but still she couldn't get the pen drive. Watching her panicked look Aman asked

" What happened?"

" Pen drive is missing"

She said with unpleasantness.

" Do you have any backups?" He asked deeply.

Liza shook her head in " No" with an ugly face. Her face was as if she would start crying , it was a big deal for her , how could be she so careless?

She was cursing herself while thinking that where the pen drive could go from her bag , she clearly remember that she brought it with her from home. It was crystal clear that someone had stolen it.

" What do we do now?"

Liza was so much distressed.

" Well.. first of all we should go there and inform the matter to PA of President."Aman suggested.

" But he will think that we are making excuses." Liza said.

" No matter what would happen but we have to go there first."

Liza nodded and both of them arrived at the door of Meeting hall. President's PA was also at the door meanwhile Liza said

" Sir.. we are sorry to disturb you but we have a problem right now.." PA raised his eyebrows and said " Go ahead"

Liza swallowed her saliva and said

" Sir.. someone has stolen our pen drive "

PA was stunned at the time , didn't know what to say , he just glanced at Aman in confusion. Meanwhile Aman took few steps towards him

" Sir, let's talk in private "

Aman brought the PA at the corner of corridor , Liza was standing at her position and was curious about what he was talking to the PA. After few minutes they came back to her and PA said

" If that's the case Miss Liza then l'm giving you one more day.. you can submit your presentation tomorrow."After saying this PA left for meeting while Liza was stunned.

She then turned towards Aman

" How this miracle happened..? What did you say to him?"

" It's a secret "

Aman said while winking at her.

"Don't tell me you are a gay and you sold yourself just for getting one more day."Liza was still looking at him blankly.

"_ "

Aman was speechless

" If I'm gay then how could I kiss you like that "

"_"

Now Liza was speechless.

" Ok..ok..do you forget that what I told you that Arav singhaniya is my friend.. So , I just use some of my contacts." He said proudly.

" Oh.. then can I ask you a question"

" Ok..ask"

" How can you be a friend of such a rich person? I mean How did you meet him? "

She was doubting at his identity now.

" Actually, few years ago , I was doing part time job in a hotel and Arav visited that hotel with one of his gf at night and at the same time his another gf visited him , may be she was stalking him for some reason , he was helpless at that time , there was so much drama , some of them started shooting video there, then I helped him with my smartness , I said that I was his friend and I had given him a dare and he was completing that. At that time I saved him otherwise his reputation would be ruined . By this way he become my friend. But you should think about the pen drive now.."He said deeply.

Liza seemed to think something , suddenly an idea came to her mind

" I have an Idea...follow me"

She went downstairs and called everyone to be gathered at a place and then announced

" Today , my pen drive has been stolen , I'm 100% sure that one of you guys have done this.. I'm giving you all a chance to return it to me otherwise I'm going to call police right now.. police will check you guys then you won't have any chance to escape and you will have to stand here until the police come . I have taken the permission from the president also."

Everyone was stunned by her last sentence and also surprised , staring at each other. Aman was also surprised and was staring at her blankly.

" You are not going to say.. fine then I'm dialing to police" Liza then took her phone and was about to dial a no but suddenly a hand grabbed her wrist.

" O Liza my friend, are you mad.. I was finding you in the whole office to give this pen drive to you"

Liza stared at her , she was surprised and staring at her blankly. Mona swallowed her saliva and adjusted her guilty expression and saidAt morning when we were chatting , you dropped the pen drive there and left "

" But , we left together, if that was the case you could give it to me at that time." Liza said coldly , Mona bit her lips.

" No.. you left alone... remember.. you were lost at the time because of the viral news of your affair with President that's why you don't remember clearly."

Mona was lying , it was clearly seen and she mentioned the matter of affair intentionally to shut down Liza's mouth .Liza also knew that but she then didn't say anything because what she wanted was now in her hand so it was useless to enhance this matter. But , she understood now that Mona was really a vicious woman , she might be stolen it at canteen from her bag and now playing an innocent card but she didn't understand why did she do this.
