Sensing his breath on her skin, she was more than relieved .
She closed her eyes and let that stray drop of tear fall down . She didn't say a word and neither did he . They stood there all silently amidst the cool breeze, in each other's embrace .
She had no questions for him, nor he had any answers . All that was present was a mutual understanding and respect for each other, that needed no words to be conveyed . She didn't want him to say anything . His mere presence was comforting enough for her .
"I am done with hiding Akira . I will end this soon . "
She turned back to look at him . His eyes were also moist and she knew that he had been hurting .
"Are you sure about it . "
"I was never this sure about it Akira . "
"What are you going to?"
"Whatever I am going to do, needs your help in achieving it . "
"Anything for you Raymond, just say the word . But how did you come inside? No-one recognized you?"
"With this beard? Huh . . . no one did . Plus I had David's help in unlocking all the doors . "

"I see . "
Akira said and smiled looking at him .
"I need to leave now . I have an appointment with my lawyer . But I need you to immediately schedule for a press event for your project MEDUSA and inform about the scrapping of project RENAISSANCE . "
"That will alert Vikram right . "
"Let him be alerted . I do not care now . He is the least of my concern at this moment . "
"But Raymond . "
"I am telling you . Do not worry about him . It's time to push him to the brink instead of worrying about him . "
"After that press conference is done, I need you to dress up all nicely as tomorrow evening you need to attend a party which will be hosted by my father . "
"But I haven't received any invitation and I am not even aware of any such event being organized in the first place . "
"You will hear about it soon . By the end of today evening . "
"Raymond what are you doing? Are you sure about it?"
"Just hold tight Akira . We will sail through it all . "Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
"I trust you, Raymond . "
"I just hope, I can keep up with your trust . "
Saying that Raymond quickly gave her a warm kiss on her lips and lingered there for a second before he turned back to leave .
Akira took a moment to recollect herself and then she also went back to her seat as soon as possible . After all, she had to prepare for the press conference .
-----
After reaching her seat, the first thing that she did was to call up Dr . Nelson for she had a hell lot of apologizing to do .
"Hello, Akira !!!"
"Hello, Dr . Nelson !!!"
"I cannot tell you how relieved I am feeling after hearing your voice . "
"Why, you thought for real that I will never call you back?"
"Nothing like that Akira . I was just tensed to see you both suffering like this . "
"Don't worry about all that . He just came to my office to meet me . You were right . He needed to know . "
"Well, I will never say - I told you so . "
Akira laughed a bit hearing his cheeky reply and then took a deep breath and said,
"But I will still stick to my words . I seriously do not know what I would have done without you . "
"You don't need to explicitly say that . "
"Well, I am saying that because I need one more help from you . "
"Anything . Just let me know . "
"Erm . . . I don't know how you would react to it, but I was thinking of going and visiting Dr . Oshana today . I don't want to face her alone, given her erratic and unpredictable nature . "
"Why do you want to meet up with her? Are you insane? have you forgotten what all she has done?"
"I haven't forgotten a thing . But being a woman, I still feel for her . I want to talk amicably with her . We can sort this whole matter peacefully . I should have done it this way in the first place . But I was a bit blinded with anger . "
"I will accompany you, but I still think it is a bad choice . "
"Don't worry, there will be people around to help us out in case things go west . "
"Fine, then . I will come and pick you up . "
"No way Jaby . You are hurt and your hand needs rest . God knows how many operations have been stalled because of me . "
"Oh, will you stop feeling sorry for once?"
"Ok Ok . . . I cannot go there as Akira . I need to camouflage . I will take a taxi and I will text you the details . "
Then immediately interrupting her, Dr . Nelson said,
"Pick me up from the hospital . Her house is nearby . "
"Sure thing . "
"One more thing, Akira . "
"What?"
"Carry some pepper spray with you . Will you?"
