Chapter 48: Smile On My Face

A few months passed when I started to have my skilled men search for Athara. I am now sitting in my swivel chair in my office. I was constantly thinking about their search for Athara. I hope I don't hear bad news from my men.

My men have been almost all over the Asian countries but they still haven't found my wife. The trepidation I felt became even more intense because my men left two countries to search over.

The telephone rang on the table but I couldn't pick it up. I was nervous and I just looked at the phone dumbfounded.

The telephone stopped ringing for a moment but within a minute it rang again. My hand was shaking and I reached for the phone and immediately brought it to my ear.

"Hello," I said on the phone.

"Good evening, boss. We're in Taiwan right now and my colleagues are currently circling every corner of the country," said Mark, who was the leader of the group I paid to find Athara in that country.

I closed my eyes. This was not the news I wanted to hear from him.
