Jo drives her car at a moderate pace, she can't wait to meet her wife. After some time ago, Bram told her about the problem was over. And he can leave this town. Jo drives his own car without Rian or his driver.
Jo still asks his driver to finish his job there who doesn't have to need him, so Jo can return to his town in peace.
It had been almost five hours on his way to his wife's house from the town where his company branch was. Jo parked his car outside the gate of his wife's house impatiently. But the gate of the house was locked from the outside. Jo frowned in wonder, staring around the house like it was unkempt.
Dry leaf litter scattered in the yard of Karina's minimalist home. Jo took his phone and contacted someone. His cell phone number is inactive. Jo felt bad. I don't know why since a few days ago he couldn't call Karina's phone.
His chest was beating faster because he felt something was wrong. Jo contacts her trusted confidant who is told to supervise Karina's activities at all times.
Jo:"We met at our usual place." Jo immediately closed his phone without waiting for a response from across.

No more than fifteen minutes, Jo arrives at the cafe where she meets her confidant.
"Good day sir." said the man bowing his head in salute.
"What do you have?" jo asked impatiently without returning the man's greetings.
"Sorry, sir. After a while Miss Karina was about to go to the village, where her in-laws I mean her former in-laws. There was someone who smothered my mouth and kidnapped me for a few days. And I was locked up in an empty house for a week. So I.." said the man lowered his head afraid of his master's reaction because suddenly Jo darkened his gaze withholding emotion.
"What do you mean?" jo exclaimed that made the cafe visitors look towards them.
But Jo seemed unconcerned still waiting for his subordinate's remark.
"At the time after I was released, I went back around Miss Karina's house but during the week anyway, no one came or went in sight of it" she explained, increasingly making the knuckles of Jo's hand whiten because clenching tightly holds back emotions.
Jo wanted to blame and vent his anger on this subordinate man, but he could not do it because he was also innocent of feeling helpless. He is also held captive by someone so as not to trace Karina's whereabouts where she went.
"Then?"
"I investigated until the office where he worked, she said Miss Karina had resigned three weeks ago for no apparent reason" the man continued to look at Jo timidly.
"Oh.. shit.." said Jonathan rubbed his face rough.
"And all the bank transactions and Ms. Karina's number you gave stopped in the city where her former in-laws lived" she explained.
Brakes...
"Ah, shit." Jo hits the table right in front of him making the cafe visitors more afraid and away from the table Jo.
Jo's subordinate man was trembling in fear. He couldn't say anything to assuage his master's anger.
"However." the voice came to a halt, Jo looked at the man as if it would give him a chance to find a clue where his wife was.
"A few days before Miss Karina disappeared..."
"What do you mean disappear?" cut Jo doesn't like.
"Sorry sir. I mean before Miss Karina there was no news. A few days before Miss Karina had met with the great master Alensio, the father of the master." explained the man. Jo glares.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean. When Miss Karina came home from work, she was picked up by the assistant of the great master to meet the great master" he explained, handing out his picture when Karina met her papa assistant and entered a fancy restaurant.
Jo grabs the phone and shifts it around looking at pictures of his wife in some other place instead of just at the restaurant and meeting with his papa assistant.
"Why did you just tell me?" annoyed Jo is still busy shifting the photos in the phone.
"Sorry sir, I contacted the master but couldn't. When I wanted to tell you, I was kidnapped by someone. And I think it's the big master's man for not wanting you to know that Miss Karina has no news." obviously the man made Jo even more limp.
Now he knows the cause of his wife's disappearance without news. His father must have done something to his wife. Expelled maybe. And Karina is a submissive type of woman and will do so without a rebuttal. Jo ran away from the cafe, before finally having her man send her pictures of Karina.
Jo's car drove down the city streets at high speed. He could not wait to get to his house to see his father. It was fortunate that he did not hit anything on the streets with his high speed.
But the sound of the horn sounds loud from various directions and with drivers who often curse on Jo for making the streets chaotic with his skill driving like a racer.
"Welcome young master." said a butler of his house to see Jo enter the mansion and its size in a hurry to get out of his car.
"Where's papa?" jo asked as he walked in followed by his butler.
"The big master was on a business trip from three days ago young master, and will be back in the next three days" explained the butler.
"Oh .. shit .. and mama?" jo asked after swearing in annoyance.
"The big lady goes along with the big master of business travel." explains the butler again.
"Ah... shit.." said Jo again sat his body on the living room sofa with empty eyes.
Jo should have known that her mom would always follow her papa wherever she was. Especially business trips that do not take a while. Jo looked up leaning her body on the back of the sofa with both of her hands rubbing her rough face, after restoring her frustrated hair.
Jo had contacted his parents' cell phone but was not picked up as if he knew Jo's intention to contact them.
You where baby, I miss you. Don't leave! Don't leave me! You promised to always be by my side. And won't leave me no matter what. Where are you, baby, come back! jo's mind involuntarily dripped his tears, but Jo seemed indifferent and closed his eyes trying to think, where else he had to find out about his wife.
Jo rushes out of his parents' mansion feeling empty and disappointed.
