After That Night (R18+)

Total Dilemma

ZACH PoV

The sensation is incredibly smooth, delicate, and soft. My hands are still moving around so easily, smoothly waving this. I slowly opened my eyes and puzzled. It was the bed's sheet. My side had a nice cushion and a satin silk bedsheet. Then, while still lying on the bed, I sit up straight and rest my head against the headboard as I look around for the woman I spent last night with. She isn't present in this space.

"Where did she go?"

"Did she already leave afterall?"

Then suddenly, my phone beeped while I was in a daze of thinking. I checked where my phone was and it was inside my pants' pocket. I then open my phone and check the message; it's from my secretary, Mr. Wayne.

Mr. Wayne has worked for me for almost a decade now. He is already in his forties. He was appointed as my secretary when I began my stepping-stone at the SNS Corporation at the age of twenty-one and has remained so to this day.

When I opened his message, he had stated.

"The board meeting has been rescheduled for tomorrow at 8 a.m., so pardon my early reminder, Mr. Salvatore."

"You have two hours to get ready before takeoff and will probably be back in Washington at four o'clock in the afternoon."

I checked the time after finish reading Mr. Wayne's message and discovered that it was 7:35 in the morning. I stood up, put on my boxers, and then dialed his number.

After a few rings, Mr. Wayne answered the call right away.

"Hello, Mr. Salvatore," he quickly answered.

"Okay, then get ready for the private jet. I'll be ready as soon as possible. " I immediately command.

"Copy that, Sir." He response.

Then I hang up the phone.

I was still perplexed about this woman, so I checked the bathroom, but she was nowhere to be found.

"Did she totally leave me here without any notice at all?"

"I didn't even get her name and contact information or anything about how to reach her."

"Why didn't I ask that last night? How foolish I was. Maybe because I was so aggressively hipnotized by her beauty, not just a typical beauty, but I think she's rare, that is why I was so crazy about her last night. "

I lamentably said to myself while robbing my forehead with total confusion.

But before heading to the airfield, I showered to get ready. As the water flows through my body, I got flashes in my mind where our flesh collided with each other , and I swear I can still feel her touch on my skin and smell her aroma in my breath

"Ughh..This woman drives me crazy."

As I continued to comb my hair with my two hands.

After taking a bath, I dress in my body-fitting black tee and, as I look in the mirror, a small smile appears on my face as I recall what happened the night before. Though it was a terrific experience, the smile quickly turned into a serious expression as the two eyebrows came together to consider how she departed after what had happened.

After getting ready, and before going out in this room, I glanced at this room one last time, checking for any hints if she had left anything that will make me find her, but it's negative. She hasn't left anything.

"This room is historic,"

I finally said to myself before exiting and closing the door.

Outside the room, Mr. Wayne was already standing in front of the door waiting for me when I just opened the door to come out with my suitcase.

"Good morning, Sir."

He politely greeted and handed over the suitcase.

"Are you here waiting for me for how long?" I asked him.

"After getting confirmation from the office about rescheduling the meeting at 7 am sharp, I soon got ready, and after 30 minutes of fixing myself, I'm already waiting on your doorstep. It's 8:20 a.m. now, so it's been an hour, Mr. Salvatore. "

Mr. Wayne explained.

"Is that so?" I conclude.

"Yes, Sir. Shall we go then? Your private jet is already in preparation for your flight into the airfield now. " He added.

"Ahmm.. Wait."

"Did you notice a woman early this morning?"

I mumbly asked him.

"Woman?.. "Hmmm, I think I haven't seen anyone, sir."

Mr. Wayne confusably answered.

"Well, never mind. Let's go. "

I firmly said before he suspected me why I was asking him that question.

I guess he is not aware of what happened last night. After the council between the investors, we had a few drinks to have a little celebration for the success of our business trip at one of the bars here in the hotel, and he first went to his room to rest, but I stayed for a little while because of this woman I kept on staring at.

"How can I look for her?" Should I trace London to search for her? I must be insane. Maybe our paths will meet again. I can go back again here in London if I want to."

Those thoughts make me want to see her and ask her why she suddenly left. I am now in a total dilemma.

---

While we were traveling to the airstrip, my phone rang inside the vehicle. I checked, it's Chairman Luke Salvatore, my father.

He inquired,

"How was your business trip to London, Zach?"

"Well, after reviewing the business concept with the investors, everything appears to be in order."

I respond.

"So that's wonderful news, I trust you to handle every huge project like this because you're so competent in the business world at such a young age."

My father remarked.

"Look who's the competent father like his son."

I teasingly said to him.

Before I cut the line, he continued to laugh the entire way to the other line.

"Okay, then, have a secure journey back here." He added.

"Bye, see you later,"

Then I hung up the phone and we continued our ride until we reached the airfield where we boarded our aircraft back to Washington.
