Chapter 126
On getting there she parked her car and run into the restaurant, it was dessert, like someone had reserved all the seat and the place itself, and right there was Jimmy sitting down and sipping his wine.
She had no time to look around the fancy restaurant, she ran over to him. "Where is she? Where is Allison?" She shouted as she tries to catch her breath.
Jimmy, looking so calm and expressionless looked up at her after checking his wrist watch. "Wow! You made it five minutes earlier than I thought." He clapped for her. "You are really punctual." He smile. "And I love my woman that way."
"Shut up and tell me where Allison is!" She shouted at him and looked around. "Allison! Allison!" She called out with tears in her eyes.
"Hey, come on Triffany." He look her over. "You will only get a cracked voice from all those shouting, damn! Look at you." Triffany loom at Jimmy, her eyes aflame and she folds her fist as she glared at him. "Dressed so light, good thing I came prepared." He got up from his chair and brought out a box.
"There is a coat and a pair of shoe in this box, wear it else you want to freeze in this cold." He told her, putting the box in her front but Triffany threw the box away.
"Where is my cousin? Where is Allison?" She pressed her lips together. "You told me you will let her go if I come in time, I am here, please let her go." She clasped her hands together and begged him.
"I told you, I don't want to see you in tears Triffany, I hate ladies who cry." He told her coldly and she pressed her lips together, trying to suppress her tears. "First, put those on." He pointed at the box. "Put them on and I will tell you where you cousin is." He went back to his chair and sat, crossing his leg as he leans back to his chair with his glass of wine on his hands.
Triffany knew she had to do as he told her, if she want to know where Allison was she has to." She bent down and picked the box, in tears as she put the coat and shoes on.
...
"Carlos, you have to see this." Garrett step into Carlos office in the company, holding a file in his hand.
Carlos who had picked up his coat and was about to leave the office look at him. "Garrett, Triffany is sick and at home, I have to go see her and be with her, let's have this discussion later."
"No Carlos, it is about the research you told me to do on Jimmy Billy, you really have to see this." He stretched the file and Carlos took a long look at it and then at Garrett. "You have to." Garrett said again.
"Carlos, you have to see this." Garrett step into Carlos office in the company, holding a file in his hand.
Carlos who had picked up his coat and was about to leave the office look at him. "Garrett, Triffany is sick and at home, I have to go see her and be with her, let's have this discussion later."
"No Carlos, it is about the research you told me to do on Jimmy Billy, you really have to see this." He stretched the file and Carlos took a long look at it and then at Garrett. "You have to." Garrett said again.
Carlos exhaled softly and walked over to his chair, he put down his coat and Garrett sat opposite him and gave him the file.
"What is this?" Carlos asked as he opened it.
"The research about Jimmy Billy, he lost his parents as a kid and grew up in an orphanage home, there was where he first met the lady he proposed to, her name is Suzy Dee, she is also an orphan and the only person Jimmy now considers as family."
Carlos looked at the profile of the lady that was Jimmy's fiancée as Garrett went on to explain. "Suzy had helped Jimmy climb up to the place he is now, and they decided to get married two day before the accident."
Carlos looked up at Garrett who went on with the information. "This must be the reason he is so agitated, the marriage was cancelled and he had to fly Suzy out of the country for a better treatment, but here is the main part of the story."
"What is it?" Carlos asked as Garrett looked at him with a paused lips. "What happened to her, is she dead or alive?" He asked.
"Carlos..." Garrett exhaled sharply, like what he was trying to say was so heavy to even speak of. "She disappeared." Carlos furrowed his brow.
"Say what make sense Garrett."
"I checked her records, the last place she was moved to was in a renowned hospital in South America, she was in coma for a year, but as of two years, there was no longer any record of her, nor where she is moved to, or if she is dead or alive."
Carlos put down the file and got up from the chair, he walked to and fro and then turn back to Garrett who just watched him space around. "This doesn't add up, Garrett, you have to confirm again, I really need to know this in order to know the next step to take, I want a broad search for this Suzy Dee, all hospital or even a place she is buried, I need a total search."
Carlos picked up his coat and walked out of the office and Garrett stood up, running his hands through his hair, he picked up his phone and made a call before leaving the office.
...
Triffany sat down across Jimmy, she was wearing the coat and shoe as he had told her to, he had even ordered meal for them and was eating but Triffany didn't touch hers.
"Eat." He told her as he took his glass of wine up to his lips and sip it, then put it down again.
"Where is Allison?" Triffany asked, this time not with the hoarse voice, she knew crying won't solve a thing so she have decided to stop herself from crying.
Jimmy cut a steak and put it into his mouth, he chewed calmly like there was nothing in this world that bothers him. "This is really delicious, you should try it out." He smile but she didn't move a muscle, just her eyes staring at him, emotionless.
"Aish, you make it less fun for me to enjoy this delicacies." He put down his fork and wipe his lips with the napkin, he look at Triffany again, but this time his eyes turned cold.
"You really cried a well of tears, I wonder what I should do, should I just spill some blood at mine?' He made an evil chuckled and it scared Triffany to her bones.
"What have you done to Allison?" Triffany asked again, no matter how hard she had tried to stop these tears, she couldn't, now she wish she had not let Allison leave, this shouldn't have happened.
"Well..." He look down at his wrist watch and then at Triffany. "She should be home by now." Triffany looked up at him sharply. "I am sure you don't believe me, but I don't speak empty words, you can call her if you wish to confirm." He lift his glass to his lips again.
Triffany immediately fished out her phone from her bag and dialed Allison's number, she lift it up to her ear immediately the call was answered. "Hello Allison, are you alright? Are you hurt? Where are you?"
"Hey Triffany, I should be the one asking you that, I am at the villa and couldn't find you in your room when I return, where are you?" Allison asked and Triffany look at Jimmy who had resu.e eating his steak.
"Are you really okay?" Triffany asked again for confirmation.
"Yes, I should still be asking you all this, where are you, you know that you aren't feeling so strong, you need to be resting." Alison told her from the other side of the line.
Triffany breathe a sigh of relief as she closed her eyes momentarily. "I just went out for some air." She told her. "I will be right back."
"Okay, I will be waiting, remember we have to finish my project today." With that they both hung up.
Jimmy chuckled. "That was a relief, you must be thinking." Triffany looked at the cold looking man. "Well Triffany, next time wouldn't be this way, like u said, I don’t joke around, I want you to divorce Carlos and come over to me."
"Why are you doing this Jimmy?" Triffany put down her phone as she asked. "Why are you acting this way?"
Jimmy tossed down his spoon and his eyes were aflame, lips pressed down into a thin line. "Why?" He shouted and Triffany shudder. "Maybe you have forgotten everything, but I will show you why."
He got up from his chair and grabbed her by the hands. "You want to know why am acting this way, then you have to see it for yourself." He dragged her along as they walked over to his car even with her protest.
Jimmy shove her into the car and got into the driver seat as he speeds off with Triffany crying and asking him to stop but he just look at the road without giving her another glance, inside the car was cold and Triffany was terrified as she looked at the man who she had only met once three years ago.
