Adrian quickly brushed his teeth and carried his son to the bathroom. After bathing him, he made him ready to be sent to preschool. Then he quickly got ready for his company. Both of them went down to the dining room to have breakfast. 

" Good Morning to you both…" Maria greeted them.

" Good morning Granny…" Sam greeted her with a cute smile.

Sam saw the pancakes and sausage rolls. He picked one pancake and placed it on his plate. " Why don't you try sausage rolls? " Maria asked.

" I like pancakes only…" he replied to Granny. He quickly finished his breakfast and went to his school as usual.

" Mom...Did Kathie do anything before going ?" Adrian asked worriedly. She smiled at him and said, " Just, she told me that she was going to meet someone named Vanessa. And also told me what happened to her. I think it takes time to console her. It's a deep pain for that girl …" Maria pitied Vanessa's situation.

" Yes….Mom… you are right. We must help her to get out of the trauma, " Adrian said to his mom.

….

Then he started in his car to the company as he thought Katherine might come directly to the company from Vanessa's house. 

As soon as he reached the company, he went to his cabin to talk with his wife. He expected his wife to wait for him in his cabin but the cabin was empty. He made a call to the reception to know about her arrival.

" Sorry...madam didn't come to work today," she informed him.

Many thoughts were going on in his mind. 

Is Vanessa's health not fine?

Is there any argument at her place?

Does anything happen to Katherine?

He decided to go and visit Vanessa's house personally. He postponed his work in the office and instructed the driver to take him to Vanessa's flat. 

When he was coming out, he got a call from Steven. He made a call to inform him that A Japanese company was interested in the investments in the company.

As it was an important one, he thought to go after talking with those clients. It took one hour for him to negotiate with them. Finally, they agreed to come and visit his company after one week.

After the meeting was completed, he made a call to Steven and thanked him for helping him in the business at the critical time.

" No need to thank me. If the Japanese company agrees to a tie-up with your company, you have to give me a big party" Steven said with a smile.

" Sure…"

" Tell me….when are you coming? " he asked Steven.

" Tonight…" he replied.

" Okay… we celebrate once we come here…" Adrian said and ended the call.

…..

He checked the time, it was 11.30. Katherine didn't return to the company. He made a call to his wife, but she was not attending the call. His heart was beating hastily. Then he walked out of his cabin and asked the driver to take him to Vanessa's place quickly.

…..

Once he reached Vanessa's apartment, he noticed her car parked on the side of the road. He again made a call to his wife, then he heard her mobile ringing sound inside her car. 

" She might forget her mobile in the car. She always makes me worried... " He thought in his mind. 

He quickly went to her flat and pressed the calling bell. As soon as the door opened, he saw Vanessa standing at the door. He looked inside standing at the door.

" Why are you here? " she questioned him.

" Where is Mrs. Wilson? " he asked her while panting.

" She left my home two hours ago. Your employee took her with him, " she replied.

" What! My employee?? " he exclaimed.

" The person who came along with you to the hospital to visit me. I think….his name is Duke" she informed.

Adrian knew that Katherine never goes with anyone, especially with Duke.

"How can you say that my wife will be with him? " Adrian questioned her.

" I saw him carrying her in his arms and taking her in his car from my balcony, " she replied.

" Mrs.Wilson was unconscious " she added.

" Bastard… " he shouted in anger.

It was the first time she was watching Adrian in an angry state. She was scared to see him like that. Immediately, he made a call to Duke but he was not attending the call. 

" I would have killed you…" he shouted.

(What if he drugged Kathie again and try to…? The thought itself made me scared to death)

" Is there any problem, Mr. Wilson? " she asked, sensing some problem in his words.

" Do you know where exactly his house is?" Adrian asked her in a serious tone.

" I only know his house is in the next street. But don't know the exact house number, " she replied meekly.

" Is everything okay Mr. Wilson? " she inquired.

" I don't know…." He gave a quick reply and pressed the elevator button while running out of her flat.

As per the information which he got from Vanessa, Adrian drove to that address. Taking long strides, he stood at the main door. 

" Duke Collins…" 

He noticed his name on the white name board beside the main entrance. He pressed the calling bell and waited for someone to open the door. He had no patience left in him. So he knocked on the door continuously. But no one opened the door. This time, Adrian turned the doorknob to open. Luckily the door was open. He quickly walked in to check his wife whether she was safe or not.

He didn't find anyone in the living room. Then he walked to the adjacent room and found Katherine was lying on the bed as if she was in a deep sleep. She was covered with a quilt. She was covered up to her chest.

"Has he drugged her?" He thought.

" Kathie…" he called her name softly but she didn't open her eyes. He touched her cheeks and then slightly moved the quilt down over her body. He noticed the bare shoulders of his wife.

" Bastard....What did you do with my wife? " Adrian shouted.
