89 Phantom

"Ok, Dolly. Now you can go. Thank you for your help. I have a new assignment for you. You go through this file and let me know if you have any questions regarding it." John said and handed Dolly a file. Dolly accepted it and left the CEO office.

"Now tell me, what is the progress of Lucas's case?"

"Boss, this Lucas is not a simple person.our investigators are facing problems to find information about him. There is no information about him after the death of his father. He vanished like a phantom. Nobody heard about him after that incident."

John frowned. Lucas killed his father and vanished a long time ago. But why? Nobody knew that he was the murderer of his own father. He need not hide. He was trying to destroy Smith family from that time. Is that means his disappearance also related to the map?

"What about his other family members of Lucas?" John asked.

"We tried to collect the data about his parents. He was the only child of the family. His father, Gerry Smith was a diamond miner. He was very rich. He formed a group of three people for diamond mining. They travelled to different countries in search of diamond mines." Charlie added."They became famous after discovering a red diamond mine. But after some years he was bored and left the group. After leaving the mining work, Gerry tried his hand in jewellery designing and there also he succeeded. His wife also died after one month of his death."

"Could you collect the names of the other members of the diamond mining group?" John asked suddenly.

"Yes. One member was your great grandfather Hilton Smith and another one was Keyon Jones."

"Ok.Any other information?" John asked thoughtfully.

"No. We are trying to gather more information. "

"Ok. Try to gather more information about my great grandfather and that Keyon Jones. It's very important for us to know everything in details."

"Boss my team is now trying to track Keyon Jones. I hope we will get some news very soon."

"That's good. How is the preparation of my journey? Is everything ready?"

"Yes. Everything is ready."

"I would be away from the company for the whole week. So, our enemy could take the chance of it. Always be alert. And sanction one-week medical leave for Zinu. Nobody would suspect her if she takes leave on medical ground."

"Ok boss."

"Good. Now let's go."

Both John and Charlie left the office. On the way to home, they entered a shopping mall. John had to buy lots of things for the journey. He wanted to buy everything for Zinu himself. Generally, John doesn't like to visit the malls. It was Charlie's duty to prepare everything for him. Even all his clothes and clothes of Zinu and Ronnie were also prepared by him. Charlie followed John. But his eyes widen when he saw that John entered a store, where different types of lingeries were displayed. Charlie was a bachelor, who has no girlfriend till now. So, it was a torture for him, but John didn't care.

During his marriage, John ordered Charlie to prepare some lingeries and other clothes for Zinu. Charlie felt helpless as he has no experience in ladies clothes. So, he called Smith Enterprise's head designer and let her do this task for him.

Charlie blushed and coughed uneasily when John called him to help. All the sales girls were observing Charlie for a long time. They were enjoying the uneasy look of a blushed handsome man. Charlie joined John with slow steps.

"Would you please show me some swimming suits?"

"Sure sir. Just have a look at these." The sales girls were happy to get John as their customer. Although they couldn't identify him but could tell that he is a rich man. They knew that through John's shopping, they would get a good sales commission that day. So, they showed their best swimming suits to him. But John did not like the items. He was searching for something extraordinary for Zinu.

"Don't you have some finer materials?

The sales girls shook their head.

" No sir. These are the best suits we have."One of the sales girls replied.

"What are you telling? Do you know who is he?" All the salesperson startled by a loud voice. They all stunned to see the manager of this mall arrived there because the manager rarely comes to the store.

"I am sorry sir. I had no idea that you would come here. I could not receive you.Mr. Smith, please come this way. I am showing you everything you needed."

Everyone present there shocked. By this time they came to know that this person is not a simple man. They all lowered their heads.

"Thank you Mr.James.I only need some clothes for my wife. You need not worry." John replied.

"No Mr. Smith. It's my duty to serve you. Please come this way."

John left with the manager. All the sales girls were excited. They have seen John for the first time.

"Oh, my god.Mr. Smith!! This is John Smith!"

"Yes. He must be. So sad! I lost the chance to click a photo of him."

"He came here to buy a swimming suit for his wife! Is he married?"

"His assistant is also so handsome and cute. I like him more."

That day in the lingerie store John as well as Charlie became the hot topic.
