Chapter 182 - Is It Lucus..?
Marks POV:
I feel very bad when I looked at the room boy on the bed with the bandages on his body, and it's just because of me he is in this critical position, if I untie him in the morning, he will lead a happy life, but I don't have another choice, we have a very short time to implement our plan to catch those bastards so for the safety of Anna I should tie his hands...
But I am happy that he is conscious now, So I immediately asked him, "Tell me, who tried to kill you..?"
Room boy: "It's your room boy, Sir."
(My mind was blank when I heard his answer, What he just said?
Our room boy?
Why he tried to attack him..?
Maybe be there is a chance that there are personal issues between them..?
It's better to take the clarity from him, so I asked him about the same.)
Mark: "Why he wants to attack you? Are there any personal issues between you..?"
Room boy: "No, Sir, I don't know him; he is our new employee, and it's been one week I guess he appointed at work..."
Mark: "What..?
Can you tell me the exact date he joined..?"
Room boy: "It's around 3-4 days before your visit, and he speaks nothing to me, he always looks and act dumb, and if I ask him to do any work, he will look at me arrogantly...
I didn't take it into my management notice because it's just a few days since he joined the resort...
So..."
(What..?
He is a new employee, and it's just been three days before our visit; It's weird...)
Mark: "Did he say anything when he is attacking you...?"
Room boy: "When he opened the door, I thought he accidentally came to the room with some other work,
I immediately requested him to untie me, but I was shocked when I looked at his facial expressions, he didn't get shocked by looking at me with my tied hands.
He slowly closed the door and came to me with a smirk face and made a call to someone...
I don't know who is on the other side of the call...
I didn't understand what's happening...
He came close to me and said, "This is my work; I will do my work..."
And he immediately takes the knife from his pocket and stabs in my stomach...
I scream for help...
He repeatedly stabs in my stomach until I lost unconscious...
I don't know further...
But I can remember fluckly when he speaks on call...
"He is dead...
Follow...
Kidnap her...
I checked the entire room..."
I don't know what exactly he said because I am unconscious...
I am sorry, sir..."
Mark: Hey, no...
You no need to say sorry.
It's not your mistake to fell unconscious, but can you let me know if you remember anything...
Anything you got suspicion on him...
From the date, he started his work at the resort..."
Room boy: "No sir, he lives in his own world and always busy on his phone, and he speaks to me a very few times that too I initiated to speak with him...
Tom: "Just think in a calm mind, you will remember everything...
It's very important to find who he is exactly..."
Room boy: "Yes sir, I forgot to say about this...
Management won't give room-boy post unless they are efficient in other works like cleaning, mobbing and with some politeness attitude, etc.,
In my case, they promote me to room boy after three months of my joining...
The management is very particular about this because our customers are well settled, rich kids...
Soo..."
Mark: "So, why they appoint him directly as a room boy..?
Particularly to our room..?"
Room boy: "I don't know about it, sir, the management will make the decisions."
Mark: "Who will manage my room before his appointment..?
Room boy: "The previous room boy is very nice, as far as I know, he is on leave, so the management appointed him. I don't know exactly on what basis management appointed him."
Mark: "ok, we will inquire the management regarding this, and if you find anything further, please let me know. Particularly if you remember what he spoke when he Attacked you...
And here is my visiting card."
(By finishing my words I placed my visiting card on the side table
Room boy: "He says some name..."
(I immediately turned to the room boy.)
Room boy: "when he is speaking into the phone, he calls him by his name..."
Mark: "what's the name..?"
Room boy: "I am trying to remember, sir..."
Mark: "Think, it will help more if you say the name...
Is it John..?"
Room boy: No, sir, it's not John...
Mark: "Are you sure...?"
Room boy: "Yes sir..,"
Mark: "Is it, Lucus..?"
Room boy: "No sir..,"
Mark: "if not John, It must be Lucus, think again…"
(Immediately Tom came and held my shoulder and pressed it to stop the discussion, I looked at him, he strikes his head as no to end the discussion...
I nod my head as ok to Tom...
Why is he stopping me while I am busy in discussion with the room boy…
He secretly pointed his finger towards Anna.
I immediately looked at Anna; her eyes are filled with tears by hearing the name Lucus...
Shit shit...,
Anna could not be here...
I totally forgot about her...
Lucas is the name of Anna's father...
I always have doubt on her father but I don't have proofs yet; I guess he is following us with the help of a room boy like John did.
But when the room boy said no, I don't know how to react...
It must be Anna's father, Lucus, other than him, who can spy on us..?
