Chapter 127
Carlos arrived home at the villa and walked straight into the house, he had not seen any sign of Triffany and the place was quite.
He walked into the room and was surprise to see the bed empty and the drip connected to Triffany’s hands were still there, looking at it he realised she took it off on a hurry.
"Triffany I'm home." He called out and walked over to the bathroom. "Triffany are you in there?" He asked.
When there was no answers he opened the door and found the bathroom empty, he turn around and walk over to the balcony, he looked out to the beach side for any traces of her, but he could only see Allison and Triffany was not in view.
Allison laid on the beach chair with her legs stretch out and her face looking up to the sky with a glass of wine by her side, seeing her this relaxed made Carlos less worried.
Maybe she might be at some other part of the villa, all he has to do was go ask Allison, he took off his shoe and walked out of the room after putting down his coat and tie.
He was wearing only a white t-shirt with the two top buttons loose, a black suit trousers and looking handsome in his brow lighted hair.
"Allison." He called out as he walked close to her, Allison who was about to sip her wine, heard his voice and put down her glass and sat up.
"You are back." She said softly and adjusted her dress.
"Yes." Carlos look around once more and settled his eyes on her again. "I don't see Triffany." He told her, his eyes still searched the surrounding.
"Oh, she called me and said she went out for some air." Allison said with a thin smile, trying to look good, since Carlos was to handsome, but the expression on Carlos face changed the mood.
"Get some air, you say?" He asked, as his pupils were large, and Allison nod in reply. "When was that?" Carlos asked in a hurry.
Allison picked up her phone and checked the time Triffany had called. "About an hour ago." She look at him and this time Carlos runs his hands through his hair. "What is wrong?" Allison asked, not knowing why Carlos was panicking.
"Where were you? Did she receive any call?" He asked in a hurry and turned to head to head back to the villa before Allison could answer.
Allison went after him as she explained how she had left to get some things for her project and Triffany had insisted to help, but when she returned Triffany was not at home.
Before he got into the house he called the security guard that has been in charge to watch her. "Dod she tell you where she was going?" He asked.
"No sir, I insisted on taking her but she told me she only wanted to get some air." He reported.
"Did anything seem odd to you?" Carlos asked as he fished out his phone from his pocket and started dialling a number.
"Yes, she seems to be in a hurry, she was wearing a light dress that was not suit fir going out in this cold, also her legs, she wasn't wearing a shoe or boot, she just wore a slippers, her hair and everything." He reported.
"Then why didn't you call me?" Carlos shouted and the security guard looked down terrified.
"What is really going on?" Allison asked again since she was puzzled, looking from Carlos who had his phone on his ears and was already talking to someone on the other side of the line.
"Yes, I want you to tap her phone and let me know who she spoke to an hour ago, yes I need that, also track her phone and send me the coordinates." He hung up and dialled another number and it was so fast to Allison that she felt everything was moving in a blur.
The number did not connect and Carlos turned to Allison. "What did she tell you when she called? How was the sound of her voice, was there any particular thing she said?" He asked.
"Yes, she asked me if I was okay and her voice sounded hoarse." Allison explained what she can remember.
"Jimmy." She heard Carlos say as he opened his car in a haste, before the door shut she heard him say to someone over the phone. "It is Jimmy, he threw Triffany out by using Allison as a threat."
Allison watched Carlos car zoom off and few other cars that was drove by some security followed suit, she wonder what was happening, she took out her phone and called Triffany again, but this time there was no answer.
...
In the car, Triffany took out her vibrating phone to answer when she saw the caller ID was Carlos, but the phone was snatched away by Jimmy, he tossed it out of the window.
"Jimmy!" She shouted as her jer widens with fright and her mouth opened with horror and he turned to her with the corner of his lips raised up.
"Your phone is being tapped right now by Carlos." He made a crooked smile and face the road. "I knew he would, that why I let you have it until now, seeing that, it might take him sometime before he finds you, but do you know what happens before then, I will tell you."
He accelerated and Triffany look ahead, they were going into a long lonely road and there was no building around just tall trees and it was like a place she had seen in horror movies.
Her eyes wells up and she look at him. "Am sorry Jimmy, I am so sorry, but please don't kill me, I don't want to dies Jimmy, please." She clasped her hands together and begged him with tears flowing down her cheek.
Jimmy started chuckling, he was like a lunatic just now and it was more terrifying. "Ni Triffany, I can kill a replacement, today is the worst day for me, the day I wish would never happen, this day Triffany."
Triffany could see his eyes, it was aflame and his expression was cold, very cold that it brought shudder to her spine, she looked ahead and they were approaching what seems like an abandoned building.
He pulled in and stopped the engine and then look at tye terrified Triffany, she look at him and noticed that in his eyes was some tears he was trying to suppress.
"Come, I want to show you, I want to show you why I feel black and hazardous, why I want you and want to make you suffer a hundred times."
He stepped out of the car and Triffany was stiffened as she watched him move over to her door, her knees was shake as he opened the door and held her hands pulling her out of the car. "Come with me!"
He dragged her and Triffany knew it was hopeless to struggle with him, she just followed him like a zombie, once inside the building she noticed that it was not how it seems in the outside.
The inside was nice, almost like a well furnished room, like they were in a totally different place, how can anyone think this building as a useful place.
She didn't have much time to look at it, since she was dragged by the hand and shoved into a room. "Look!" Jimmy shouted in anger and a cold voice as he pointed towards the bed.
Triffany who had her back turned at it, gently turn around, but at the moment she saw it, her eyes widens and her teeth chattered, her fingers trembling as she clasped it to her lips and fell to her knees as tears run down her cheek.
"Sir we lost track of her." A security told Carlos as they were driving to the direction of her last signal, they stopped at the last place they had located.
Carlos stepped down from the car and look around, there he saw Triffany’s phone, smashed and switched off. "Shit!" He yelled and runs his hands through his hair.
"Sir, this is a dead end." Shanne told him slowly, he knew how angry Carlos was and how desperate he was to find Triffany.
Carlos looked at his left and right, there were three toad and they were in the middle, he began to chuckle which surprised Shanne and the others with him, sure enough, he had seen clearly how smart Jimmy was, he would have taken the phone from her at other place, but why here.
Carlos turn to Shanne, the smile on his face has disappeared, his forehead furrowed and his eyes cold. "I will take that direction." He pointed at the right.
"You take the left and let few others take the middle, we have to find her at all cost." He turned to enter his car but Shanne stood by his front.
"Sir, I have to go with you, it could be dangerous going on your own."
"Shanne, right now the person who is in danger is Triffany, Jimmy is dangerous and I don't know what the fuck he could be doing right now, so get out of my way and do as you are ordered."
"Sir..." Shanne tried to stop him again but Carlos moved swiftly and got into his car and drove off, all Shane had to do was ordered the rest and do as instructed.
Carlos closed his eyes momentarily and run his free hand on his hair, his other hand on the steering wheel, all he hope was that nothing happens to Triffany, and what more, his baby, their child.
He pressed his hand on his lips at the thought of that, his independence was troubled, he looked left and right for any trace or building, but none, this was like an abandoned place.
He hits his steering wheel from time to time, his eyes aflame and worried, he accelerated, his brows creased, his heart racing, now he had a regret, he regrets leaving her all alone at home.
If only he had been at home, she wouldn't have gone out without his noticed, now what he had heard from Garrett disturb him even more.
His ex fiancée disappeared from the hospital she was transferred to and now there was no single trace of her, what if that happens to his wife.
His hands trembled and his eyes became wet, he cursed himself in his head, he had said he would protect her and their baby, but now she was out of sight and out of reach.
Where this road lead, he knows not, but even if he has to search all the city, he will have to find her, wherever she was, else Jimmy will go down this time.
