A MAN TO HATE

chapter forty-two

Jungkook

The first twenty-four hours of waiting were the longest twenty-four hours of my life, and since Bellatia is not just anyone, the news of her disappearance was already in the news

The police received their little pressure and started to take the case seriously while giving permission to my team to work freely on the case as well

As for me, for hours I have only been hovering around the members of my team like a lion in a cage, fear and anxiety eat away at me, I feel like I'm going to lose my mind

Where the hell did he go with her?

" Sir, we got the last call of Warren Montgomery, and yes, it was with Mrs Jeon " says Lohan

I almost tripped as I stand up to join them behind the bunch of materials they used to hack the payphone system

" Play it " I order immediately

Lohan presses a button on the computer and the audio starts to play

" Yes " B

" We need to talk " W

" Warren? Where were you all this time? " B

" I will explain you everything, but not on the phone, can we meet? " W

" Right now? " B

" Yes, right now " W

" Hm...well, do you know the Louis Vuitton store in the hotel area? I'm here " B

" Fine, I'm coming " W

End of the call...

I look at Lohan

" So, it's definitely him "

" Yes Sir "

" I need you to find this bastard, you hear me , if they didn't leave the country,they are probably somewhere, this asshole took my wife with him and I want you to find him,Don't make me question your competence " I say angrily

All of them nod as they all begin to move in the room to find something to do

I lean my head backwards as I take a deep breath

I have a headache

I wish I took her to Honolulu as I planned after our honeymoon week in the castle

Not sure that all that wouldn't happen, but at least...we would've spent more time together

I have never felt so bad before, the disappearance of my wife is like torture, it tears my insides...I fear the worst,

I can't stop thinking about everything and anything, what if an accident happen to them while they were heading somewhere just to chat? it's not obvious that Warren would want to harm his sister, he wants harm to me, so there must surely have another explanation for Bella's sudden disappearance

I think of the last time I saw my wife...that morning before we separated to go to work, we shared breakfast around a trivial subject which made her laugh a lot, her crystalline and joyful laughter has haunted me since her disappearance, her beautiful face radiant, her eyes shining with pure happiness...

Then before joining the car where Rufus was waiting for her, she kissed me tenderly before disappearing into the corridor... if i knew the rest of the events would have been like this, I would have stopped her from leaving, I would have kept her in my arms, warm and safe

the research process and investigations are going much too slowly for my liking, and the fact that I can't do anything to move things forward is killing me, I hate my helplessness
