505 With all the secrecy - 2
"Now whom will you tell? Akira or Raymond?" asked Katherine getting a bit frustrated. Then she muttered,
"Anyways he had already proposed to her on my wedding day, so let's give Akira a chance this ti. What say, David?"
"I guess... that's fine. I will sohow jeopardize sothing and try to manage it," said David with a heavy heart but deep down he didn't want to ss with the plans of Raymond as he had planned for this evening so well.
"My poor brother though !!!", said Katherine and sighed before disconnecting the call.
Then she called up Raymond,
"Hey there !!!"
"Hello Kat !!! What's up?", asked Raymond as he pressed -2 on the elevator.
"Nothing much, just wanted to go over the drill. I forgot which wine you wanted to be ordered for Saturday," said Katherine.
"Well she is not much of a drinker, so I would prefer sothing sweet from Bordeaux maybe for her. A 2003 Lafite-Rothschild Bordeaux might be a good option. What say?" Asked Raymond.
"A good choice but maybe we should opt for sothing more delicate for her like 2003 Latour Bordeaux. I sohow prefer this one over Lafite-Rothschild. So I will place an order for 4 bottles. That should be fine right?" Asked Katherine.
"Are you planning to get us drunk at your place? That's not happening Kat. After proposing her, I will bring her down to your place for maybe like half an hour, and then we will take off," said Raymond.
"Jeez, can't you even spare her for one freaking night?", Katherine lanted and then added, "You know what I was thinking. The next weekend we have this wine festival coming up. So maybe you can take her for a romantic wine tasting and then slip the ring. Won't that be exquisite? Mom's estate would be ready by next week as well. So you two can spend the night there afterwards."
"I can't delay any further Katherine, I want to propose her this Saturday and next weekend I want to get married to her. I want to give her the dream wedding that she has always wanted. You already know how when everything seems to be going fine a storm cos up and destroys everything in my life. So even if everything else looking good right now I just don't have the heart to wait. I am just scared that sothing might happen and ruin everything. It is like my life is filled with narrow escapes," sad Raymond and then let out a deep gasp of air.
Hearing his words Katherine's heart felt heavy. She was feeling bad for trying to sabotage the plans of her brother, but she knew that Akira was going to keep him happy. Even though it looks like he was rushing into things, in her heart she knew that even Akira wanted the sa.
So trying to divert the topic she asked,
"Where are you going now?"
Then hesitating for a bit Katherine asked,
"Did you... Did you check up on Sebastian?"
"What should I check upon Katherine? Should I go and check if he is doing ok? Should I go and ask him if his plans are going ok? What should I go and ask him Katherine?"
"Fine calm down... I just asked out of curiosity. Nothing else. Still believe that whatever you did was the right thing to do," said Katherine trying to pacify her brother but her curious mind against threw a question.
"Are you going to find out who...?"
"Who is my father? You think right now I want to find that out? If that person didn't want to et for the last 30 years, then do you think you would like to et now?" said Raymond, cutting through her question abruptly.
"I didn't an it in that way Raymond. Just that after knowing everything about Sebastian, I just cannot keep ponding about who it was. Who left us without even bothering about how we would feel about it. That's all. But it's not like my life is going to stop if I don't," said Katherine and took a shallow breath.
"Then let's not talk about it. As in, like ever."said Raymond and then disconnected the call.
Taking a deep breath he started the car and started for Walker enterprises. That sudden question from Katherine had sprouted so many questions inside him that he didn't want to think about. He didn't want to dig the past anymore. Didn't want to know what and why and how. He just wanted to live in the present now.
Parking his car, he went inside the Walker enterprises. He thought it was going to be a small affair, just a couple of signatures, and he would be done, but little did he know that his first day at Walker enterprises was not sothing that could be a llow affair.
The lobby was lined with reporters and dia people who were gathered for more spice, more news, and more answers. But he was not soone who was going to feed them anything anymore. The mont he stepped in two bouncers ca forward and shielded him from the dia that was going frenzy.
He had co to this office once before, and he was familiar with the whole setup, but this ti when he entered, the whole vibe was different. When he walked people stood there in place, giving a gentle bow. The air and the aura, everything had changed, after all he was the CEO of Walker enterprises now.
But he chose to ignore everything.
He chose to walk with the sa straight face that he entered the building with in the first place and went up to go to the room for board of directors. But his pace halted and looked towards the room to the left.
A gasp of air slid out through his lips !!!
