She's doing it again, ignoring my calls. I've been trying to reach her but she hasn't been picking.

Now she was making me worry about her.

“ Is something the matter, Sir?" My manager Anita asked.

" No nothing, how's the preparation for the car show going?” I asked her.

" Everything is going as planned, are you sure there's nothing wrong sir? You look quite disturbed,” She asked again.

“ Anita?”

" Yes Sir,”

" There are a lot of things in the company for you to do and none of them involves asking about my mood, take care of that,”

" Yes Sir, I'm sorry Sir,”

" Good, that would be all, you may leave,” I said and she nodded before picking up the tab she dropped on my table and walking out of the office.

Katherine, that woman gives me a headache every time. I couldn't concentrate without her being here or knowing what she was doing right now.

What if something has happened to her, no, I'm sure she's okay, I have someone watching her.

But I just wouldn't stop worrying.

Just as I reached for my phone it started ringing and it was a call from Matteo.

“ Matteo," I said.

"Buongiorno capo, mi dispiace ma ho cattive notizie per te," He said and I felt my heart skip a beat.

"Cosa è successo?" I asked.

"La scorsa notte, ero fuori dall'azienda e l'ho vista salire nella tua macchina dopo il lavoro, e ho pensato che la stesse portando a casa con te quindi non l'ho seguita," He said.

Okay where the hell was he going with all this?

"Non mi interessa tutto ciò che hai detto, di quale cattiva notizia stai parlando?" I asked.

"È stata attaccata la scorsa notte ed è in ospedale attualmente," I felt my heart drop at his words.

"Cosa?!" I said and I quickly took my jacket as I rushed out of my office to the elevator.

"Mi dispiace capo,"

"Mi dispiace, ti pago per sorvegliare per me e hai il coraggio di fare supposizioni sulla vita della mia donna senza chiedermelo, pensavo fossi competente ed è per questo che ti ho scelto per questo,"

"Mi dispiace capo, sarò più attento,"

"Sono deluso, profondamente deluso, se succede ancora qualcosa del genere ti rovinerò la carriera e sai che non faccio minacce vuote," I said.

He was lucky he wasn't here right now, he wouldn't have liked what I'll do to him.

"Mi dispiace capo," Sorry isn't going to solve the problem.

"Mandami l'indirizzo dell'ospedale," I said before ending the call.

( Translation )

" Morning boss, I'm sorry but I've got bad news for you,” He said and I felt my heart skip a beat.

" What is it?” I asked.

" Last night, I was outside the company and I saw her get into your car after work, and I thought you were taking her home with you so I didn't follow her,” He said.

Okay where the hell was he going with all this?

" I don't care about all you just said, what bad news are you talking about?" I asked.

“ She was attacked last night and she's in the hospital currently," I felt my heart drop at his words.

“ What?!" I said and I quickly took my jacket as I rushed out of my office to the elevator.

“ I'm sorry boss,"

“ You're sorry, I fucking pay you to watch over her for me and you fucking have the guts to make assumptions on my woman's life without asking me, I thought you were competent that was why I chose you for this,"

“ I'm sorry boss, I'll be more careful,"

“ I'm disappointed, fucking disappointed, if something like this happens again I'll end your career and you know I don't give empty threats," I said.

He was lucky he wasn't here right now, he wouldn't have liked what I'll do to do him.

“ I'm sorry boss," Sorry isn't going to solve the problem.

“ Send me the fucking address of the hospital," I said before ending the call.

She didn't think to call me in a situation like this, didn't she think I'll be worried? What the fuck was wrong with this woman?

I got into my car and drove off heading for the hospital.

As I got to the hospital I walked straight to her room door, all the information needed had already been sent to me.

When I reached the door I closed my eyes taking deep breaths not knowing what I'll see inside there.

I swear if they hurt her, I'll turn down this city until I find that bastard.

I finally pushed the door and entered the room but immediately I stopped in my tracks at the sight in front of me.

The first thing that caught my attention was the fingerprints on her face.

He fucking slapped her.

Then her legs. He must pay.

I felt my inside boil in anger as I looked at her.

She was sleeping.

I slowly walked from where I was standing towards her, as I got closer I could see other bruises on her body.

All this happened to her and she didn't think of calling me, or perhaps she has been unconscious since last night.

I sat beside her on the bed and the more I looked at her the angrier I became. There wasn't a doubt in my mind that if I was given a gun and whoever did this was brought to me I wouldn't shoot him.

Death was what he deserved.

She turned as she mumbled something in her sleep. As she turned her hair covered her face so I removed the hair from her face as I adjusted the pillows to make her more comfortable.

She suddenly opened her eyes a little as she looked up at me with a small smile.

“ Eddy?"
