Chapter CHAPTER 21- UNEXPECTED GUEST
A shimmering of light that has been too much for his eyes, those gems that are surrounding her body are indication of an adequate negative situation for him. The woman is smiling at him as it is joyful to see him at this moment. "Mom?"
His brows furrowed as he was not expecting her to be here at this time. Then, his face was obviously unease to have her in his penthouse so he roamed his eyes around but he did not see the woman that he was expecting to see first. "Aren't you glad to see me here?" his mother stepped closer to him and was about to kiss him on the cheeks but Anders avoided it and walked away.
Her mother was annoyed by the fact that her son ignored her. She took a deep breath and made sure that her posture was still present on her. Anders kept on checking every room of his penthouse but he did not see Emily. His jaws were clenching while his hands were tightened in a ball. "Anders"
"Anders Winston!"
His mother exclaimed just to get his attention as he was busy looking for Emily in each room, but he lose hope and then, he decided to sit on the edge of the bed. HE let his elbows lean on his thighs while his palms were supporting his chin. "What?"
Anders stared at his mother and was annoyed by her presence in his house.
"Uh.. You look not so good today son, let me cook you some dinner,"
His mother went to the kitchen and prepared the ingredients for cooking. A couple of minutes had passed and Anders decided to come out from the bedroom.
"Have you seen a woman here?" he asked while staring at his mother.
His mother was tossing all the ingredients together and was almost done on preparing dinner for him when she stopped and looked at him.
"Oh? Which one?" His mother giggled and said again. "Yeah I saw her here, but she went out as I thought she was a burglar,"
"Hey!"
Anders did not waste his time listening to his mother, he went out and was running like a tiger and hopped inside the elevator. He brought out his cell and dialed the number of Emily, but then no answer from Emily's phone, so, he dialled another number from his cell and said.
"Reached out for Emliy's friend, ask her what she wanted to speak about,"
Then, Ander swiftly put down the phone. He walked along the hallways and was clenching fist.
"Sir" two guards were there in the room and saluted him.
"Show me the recorded file at eleven o'clock, now," he commanded them while seriously staring at the monitor.
The guards swiftly set up the file that he requested to play and showed Anders the video.
Anders widened his eyes and told them. "Stop right there, play it back again,"
His eyes widened as he saw Emily at the parking lot being harassed by some random guys, and what made him more surprised was a few more men went to her and grabbed her one arm. Anders watched more of it but his fist wanted to land on something to release the madness in him. His eyes were sharp that could cut anyone if he stared at them.
"Are there any guards on that site?"
The two guards were trembling in fear as they saw him mad while staring at the video.
"Answer me!" he shouted to both of them and threw a sharp look.

He was forming his fist into a ball and turned. "Who was on duty that time?" he asked them once again.
The two guards swallowed and felt that their voices suddenly went away. But, one of the guards stepped in front of Anders.
"No one was there during that time, Mr. Winston," one of the guards said and bravely looked at him.
While the other guard was nodding his head just to agree with his fellow guard.
Anders narrowed his eyes on them and did not just say any word to the guards.
"If you tell lies, I will make sure that you will pay for this!" Anders said before he turned the knob and left the place.
His fist was turning into a ball as madness was consuming his energy all throughout. Walking in the hallways was making him more tremble in anger. Now, he was at the parking lot and hopped inside his other car. He hit the steering wheel with all his force.
"Fuck!"
"Where are you Emily?"
He was leaning his head on the steering wheel and was thinking about plans to find Emily. Finally he started the engine and left the building.
In just half an hour Anders arrived at the grandest building in the Metro. He swiftly park his car and threw the keys to one of the guards of the building. "Good evening, Mr. Winston,"
Every employee that has been there was greeting him with a smile but Anders did not mind about it. He kept walking in the hallways with his hand in his right pocket and get in the elevator.
He could feel the cold temperature of the metal behind him as he was wearing his shirt and pants, just a casual look on him. While he was leaning his back, a loud ring from his phone made him back to reality. "Mr. Anders, we got present for you, check your email,"
Anders checked his email and saw a photo on it. His eyes widened and could not even say any words while staring at it.
"Are we going to have a deal, Mr. Winston?"
Anders tightened his fist and was trying to control himself. He could not believe the photo.
"Well, I guess you are just trembling in madness or whatever, I'll just send you the address and don't forget to bring five hundred million dollars! Cash," Anders did not say a word. He checked his mail and saw the address. His face was dark red, his forehead started to throb while his jaws were clenching. The bell dings and Anders leaves heavy footsteps as he is walking toward his office.
"Mr. Winston, what a pleasant surprise to see you here at this hour,"
His secretary quickly walked beside and greeted him. But, he was deaf and could not even hear any words as he was focused on the unknown caller. "Coffee"
A word that made his secretary stop walking beside him and could not believe in his eyes as Mr. Winston was not used to being here at this hour.
Anders shut the door that was crunching every employee's ears. He pressed the red button to make sure that the wall would be tinted and no one would hear anything.
He was being out of his mind and could not think the right way because Emily was missing and he blamed himself for it.
