After that call with Sebastian, David couldn't comprehend anything further. He felt like suddenly his brain had stopped functioning.

He was feeling all torn from within. He couldn't fathom in the wildest of his dreams that he would be the one who had to separate the two love birds.

A part of him which was loyal to Raymond wanted him to live his life to his fullest, in his own terms. He wanted him to stay happy with Akira, wanted his sufferings to come to an end. But another part of him which was again loyal to Raymond didn't want him to lose out on Akira. He himself didn't want to be the cause that could possibly harm her in any way or endangered her life per se.

He knew how serious Sebastian was about this matter.

He knew that this man never gave empty threats.

So the fear in his heart for the well-being of Akira was real and was building up its enormity inside of him with every passing second.

With just one day in his hand, he had to act fast. He checked the time on his watch and calculated the time at London in his head. Akira's meeting was to start in another 50 minutes. So he decided to call her up first.

First, call.

Second call.

Third call.

But all of them went in blank rings.

He couldn't understand as why she wasn't picking up his calls. So he decided to call her hotel room number instead.

Again no matter how many times he called, she didn't pick up.

So giving up on the attempt to talk with her first, he started calling Raymond.

But again the same thing happened.

First, call.

Second call.

Third call.

Again all his attempts went as blank rings.

Finding this co-incidence unnaturally strange, he attempted to call Raymond's room landline, but that attempt also went into the drain as his line was busy.

Getting a bit suspicious and nervous about the whole thing, he called up the manager of the hotel and asked him for the footage of the security cameras on the 11th floor. He asked for old footage since yesterday night and also asked for the live feed access.

Within 15 minutes, he received all the videos and he started to watch them.

There were two reasons why he wanted to check the videos.

First, he wanted to see if there was any unusual activity near their rooms, like the presence of an unexpected guest who could possibly be a hitman and secondly, he wanted to check if they were ok.

The moment he saw Raymond taking a tipsy Akira inside, his heart skipped a beat.

He was happy that they were together, but that also meant that now it was even more difficult to tear them apart. He knew that it would be now extremely difficult to convince Raymond to stay away from her because now he had experienced what it was to be with her. The closer he got to her, the harder his task was going to be.

Suppressing the fear in his heart he kept fast forwarding.

He checked the bell boy who came to deliver clothes and he looked clean an too short to be a hitman. But given that Sebastian was involved, he couldn't take a risk. So he took an image of the bell boy and sent it across to his contacts to get his whereabouts.

Then he saw the morning scene where Akira was trying to go back to her room but then she came back to Raymond's room. He could see that she was extremely angry and there was a smug look on his face.

"You guys have done it, haven't you?", he blabbered and held his forehead in his hand unable to decide as to how to separate them now. Had they not have met each other, it could have been easier on his part to drive them apart, but now that they have met, he knew that the task had suddenly become a behemoth.

Giving up all hope he started checking the latest live camera feed.

A few minutes later, he saw Dr. Smeathe approaching Raymond's door. He saw him being all doting towards Akira, hugging her, caressing her chin and above all that drowned in love sort of look in his eyes. All of that was enough to tell the story. He knew that everything was resolved between them.

Taking a deep breath he cursed his stars for landing in this soup.

He was about to close his laptop when suddenly something caught his attention.

The phone that Dr. Smeathe was holding in her hand started flashing with a call indication. As she was talking with them, she turned it backwards so David could clearly see her phone screen.

"Mr. Sebastian Calling..."

"Bloody hell", screamed David.
