He thought that Charlie would not pay for the drink. But when he got the card, he felt himself in cloud nine. Because in his club rarely come any rich person. When it is almost morning, the waiter of the night s.h.i.+ft about to leave. He packed all his things to leave but stopped to see Charlie"s condition. He was in a half-conscious state. A lot of empty bottles were scattered around him. He felt pity for him.
He went near Charlie and asked for his address. But Charlie did not reply. So, the waiter searched for the mobile of Charlie. It was kept on his suit pocket. The waiter opened the call log and called the last dialled number. It was Karl"s number. Karl was already in his home. When he saw Charlie is calling him, he immediately received the call.
"Yes, boss."
"Sir, I am a waiter "For U" club. Your boss is drinking here from last night. He is now in half-conscious. Please come and take him home. And don"t forget to take his credit card from the manager."
"What? Charlie boss is drinking? Are you sure he is Charlie boss?"Karl asked in confusion. He never heard Charlie drinks.
" Sir, I don"t know his name, but yes. He must be your boss, as I got this mobile inside of his pocket."
"Ok. I am coming in no time. Thank you for your help." Karl hung up.
Karl hurriedly reached the "For U" club and saw Charlie was lying on a table. He holds Charlie"s hand and called his name, but Charlie did not respond to him.
"Dolly, you have come. I knew. I knew you can not live without me. Dolly, I love you. Don"t be angry. Don"t leave me.Please.I am not a cheater." Charlie murmured.
Karl surprised to hear Charlie"s words. In his drunken state, he nonstop uttering one name, that is Dolly. Karl knew Dolly"s ident.i.ty. Among a few people, Karl knew about the real ident.i.ty of the new members of the Smith family. He never thought that Charlie could love Dolly.
He somehow managed Charlie to bring his home and let him sleep. Karl decided to tell Charlie"s condition to John. Because he knew John would be angry if he did not inform him about the matter. So he called him and informed him about Charlie. But he makes sure to omitting the Dolly"s part. Because he understood that it was Charlie"s secret.
Charlie was more like a friend to him than a colleague. He knew Charlie for many years, but he never heard that Charlie loved anyone. So, he decided to ask him about the matter after he sobered up. He understood why Charlie is drunk. He knew what happened yesterday.
"Charlie must have seen Dolly with Henry Davidson. So, he felt dejected. Oh, poor Charlie! You should not love Dolly. There are lots of girls, who wanted to be with you. But you loved that person, whom you would never able to get."
In the manor, John was sleeping with Zinu, when Karl called him. John knew that Charlie doesn"t like to drink. So he surprised. Zinu too heard their conversation. She too surprised to hear his condition.
"Hubby, don"t worry. Maybe yesterday he drank due to the party. I think most of the employees yesterday drank. So, isn"t it a normal thing for him to get drunk?"
"No Zinu.You don"t know him but I know. In the last few years, I have never heard him get drunk on the day of the celebration dinner. Yesterday Karl informed me that he had left the party in the middle, which is also not normal. He said Karl that he had an emergency. He never left any work, without completing it. What emergency it may be that, he needs to drink."
"Hubby, that means there is something we don"t know about him."
"Yes Zinu, I too think the same thing. Charlie is hiding something from us. I have observed, he is being restless for a few days. He used to be an alert man before, but from a few days, he always lost in his thoughts. He is doing some mistakes also in the work."
"You should ask him. He will surely tell you."
"No Zinu.I asked. But he did not reply. Zinu, do you know, he is not only just my employee. I accepted him as my friend and as a brother. He helped me a lot. Now I want to help him."
"You should help him. But first, you have to know the real reason behind his condition."
