Turning Point (A Reaching Out Novel)

Chapter Eighty-Four

Harry's Perspective
Apparently, only Austin knows the whereabouts of my wife.
Why have I concluded that?
I have asked everyone here if they saw or know where Allana is..
And I had answers like:
"No, sir. "
"Y-no, sir. "
"Good afternoon, sir. "
"I apologize sir, but I haven't seen her. "
" Austin, can you please tell me where she is? " I said
" Sir, I would tell you, if you only got In line first. But, Allana made me promise not to tell you. "
" Austin, come on! I've been with you for years! Ever since I turned 18! Can you please tell me? "
" Sir, I swore an oath. "
" Yeah, I know. To protect me and stuff-"
" No, to Allana. "
" Seriously, Aus? "
I crossed my arms.
And looked at him.
And we just looked at each other.
" Fine! Don't tell her that I told you. " he said
I smiled.
" There's my Austin! "
He sighed.
" Yeah, yeah. "
And I waited.
" If she kills me with her looks-"
" She won't! I'll protect you from her."
And he looked at me.
And i waited.
" Well? " I said
He sighed.
" Try calling her brother. "
I frowned
" What? "
He sighed again.
" Just do it. "
I pulled out my phone and phoned up Brad.
" Hello? " Brad said
" Brad! " I said
I looked at Austin.
He just frowned at me.
" Hello, Harry. " Brad said
" How's everything going? " I said
" Great. Everything's fine. "
" That's good. Good. "
" Good. "
" So, why did you call? " he said
" Oh, I'm just checking on how my brother-in-law is doing"
" I'm fine. But, really, why are you calling? "
" Is A-"
I heard her voice in the background.
" Austin, I know where she is! " I said to Austin.
" Good for you, sir. But I kinda expected you to figure it out when I-"
" Harry? " Brad said on the phone.
" Yes, Brad? " I said
" Uh, can I call you back? " he said
" Yeah, sure. Thank you. " I said
" Yeah, thanks. " he said
Then he hung up.
I looked at Austin.
" Prep the car. We're going to Brad's place. " I said
