Chapter 157 - What Is She Trying To Hide? (1/2)

”Has she hung up already?”Mr. Martin asked in a surprised tone.

”Yes. But how can she hang up like that? Should not she explain her whereabout properly? And should not she call Mr. Thomson instead of me? Is she avoiding Mr. Thomson?”Mr. Peter Carter uttered thoughtfully.

”Yes. You are right. As you told that Mr. Thomson has left his mobile in the office, she at least asked you about his mobile. How can she reach home after missing more than twelve hours? I think it is weird.”Mr. Martin asked in a confused tone.

”Yes. I feel something fishy here. She hung up the call without speaking much. I think she is trying to hide something from us.”Peter Carter said and lost in thoughts.

”But what is she trying to hide from us? Is someone blackmailing her? Mr. Martin, whatever it is we must find out the matter as soon as possible. I think young Miss is in danger.”Mr. Martin said in a worried tone.

”But, as she is not going to inform us anything, we have to find out everything very carefully. We must keep a close eye on her each and every action.”Pater Carter said thoughtfully.

”Don't worry. I will help you to do this. Now you should keep this from Mr. Thomson. As you told that he is busy with his own matters, so let him do his works. We will send our best guards to guard her. And we will personally keep an eye on her until Mr. Thomosn is done with his works.”Mr. Martin said thoughtfully.

”Okay.”Peter Carter replied and dialed Mr. Thomson's number to inform about Nina Anderson's arrival.

When Peter Carter called Mr. Thomosn, he was very busy with his work. He was typing something on the computer. He accepted the call as soon as he saw the caller id.

”Hello. Have you got any information?”James Thomson asked in a worried tone.

”Yes boss, Miss Nina has reached home safely. You need not worry about her. How is the situation there?”Peter Carter asked worriedly.

”I am still trying to sort out everything. I think I still have to work more on it. Ok. Now I am hanging up. Ask the security guards to stay alert all the time. I will leave for City R as soon as I have done my job here.”James Thomson said and hung up the call.

On the next morning, the employees were stunned to see Mr. James Thomson working on his computer.

”When did he come here? Did he worked here the whole night?”One of the employees whispered.

”Yes. He might have been working there the whole night. Mr. Russel told me that he arrived here in the evening. I think he is trying to recover the data the whole night.”Another Employee said in a low voice.

”We should start our work also. Otherwise boss would get angry.”One of them said and left the pace. As Mr. James Thomosn looking at a file, a director came in.

”What is the situation?”Mr. James Thomson asked in a serious tone.

”Boss, the news about stealing the data of the company is leaked somehow and the members of the board of directors are very furious at you. They are blaming you for this.”The director informed in a low voice.

”So, did they inform anything about taking an action?”

”Y.....yes.They are going to gather here to propose the dismissal of ....of you from  the position of the CEO .”The Director uttered with hesitation.

Mr. James Thomson lost in deep thought for a few minutes.

”When is the meeting?”He asked thoughtfully.

”The meeting is at 10.00 o clock tomorrow.”The Director replied.

”Ok.I understand. You may leave now.”James Thomson said in a  calm tone. James Thomson dialed his father's number as soon as the Director leaves.

”Hello, dad. How is Grandfather now? Have they shifted him to the cabin?”James Thomson asked in a  worried tone.

”Yes. He is better now. Are you coming here to see him? He asked  about you as soon as he regained his consciousness.”Mr. Harris Thomson informed.

”Yes. I will go this afternoon, as I am still busy with my works.”James Thomson replied.
