Someone Actually Cares

Hailey's POV

I stood there numb. I stopped feeling my legs till now when he was just standing in front of me, with an emotionless face.

"R-Robert, c-can I-" I asked once again.

"Just stay there Corazon!" he cut me in between.

Suddenly the door flew open and Max was standing there. He looked at me with wide eyes and saw the pool of blood below my toes.

"B-boss"

"Max. Out," he said silently.

Max stood still for a moment, and then held eye contact with me.

He broke it as soon as it started.

"Boss, act-"

"Max. Get. The. Fuck. Out. Of. Here!" he said exaggerating each word.

"Boss, it is important..." he said.

Robert turned around now and looked at him.

"B-boss, CCTV camera of your room is hacked... Arthur and Patrick are trying, but they can't find the source and can neither deny access to them"

"I'll do it," he said and turned to face me again.

I was holding the wall on my side. I couldn't stand up front, my toes were paining like hell.
