Last chapter 2, Zeus left Jim for work.
Someone knocks on the door.
"Huh, who's at the door at such an early hour?"
Jim takes a peep at the hole. "Huh? No one?" But I thought I heard the door knocks? Did I hear wrongly? Jim scratched his head.
Rings... Ah... "Who is it?" The call is anonymous.
"Hello?"
No one answered. It's a silent call.
Hmm... Maybe it's the wrong number. Jim puts down the call.
Jim walks to the kitchen. How come I feel someone staring at me?
This type of feeling...
Jim pours water and drinks it.
Rings...
Jim picks up the call.
"Hello?"
No one answered.
"Hello, who is that?" Jim suddenly gets vibes of goosebumps. Jim quickly puts down the phone.
Suddenly the kitchen glass windows shatter.
Jim got shocked. Jim quickly look around but the glasses couldn't have shattered just like that, something must have hit them.
Someone unlocks the main door.
"Zeus, did you forget something?"
No one replied.
Jim feels something weird about why Zeus, not answering him.
Jim quickly runs to the room and locks the door.
Jim try to call Zeus but there wasn't any reception. Shit... "Why at a time like this the handphone cannot call out?"
Zeus was walking towards his car but he realize he forget his car keys.
"Oh, I thought I put it in my bag. Signs I'm going to be late but anyway I am the boss."
"Yes, Sir".
Zeus walks back to his house. He walks on the pathway and realizes something is wrong why there isn't anyone there? This is in the morning usually it will be a busy hour and people should be around. But no one was n the street at this hour.
Zeus look at the surrounding he quickly runs towards his house. When he is nearby his house he looks at the kitchen glass windows shatter and knows that something had happened.
Zeus shouts "Jim where are you?"
No one answers.
Zeus runs into the house. He realizes his whole house is messed up.
Zeus immediately calls the police and his best friend seeking help.
"Hello, police my house someone break-in and Jim is missing."
"Sir, where is your address? We will send our officers down and please don't touch anything."
"Okay."
"Hello, I need your help someone break into my house and my Jim is missing. I just called the police they are coming to my house."
"Let me check on the CCTV nearby and what time is it the break-in happens?"
"It's between 6:30 am to 7 am."
"Do you have Jim's appearance so I can check the people?"
"I will send you the photo."
Zeus calls his secretary, "please reschedule all my appointments and please bring the important documents for signature to me because of my house someone break-in."
His secretary says "alright Sir, I will come in the evening after office hours."
Zeus stands amid the messed house. Thinking since he can't touch anything he will just walk around.
Zeus sees his room doorknob was broken. He walks inside his room and found Jim's handphone on the floor.
The screen of the handphone is shattered.
The police arrive shortly.
Police check the whole house. They ask Zeus "do you have any valuables lost?"
Zeus says "wait let me check."
Zeus checks his safebox in the room. Zeus notices his safebox is forced open. He quickly tells the police that his safebox was forced open.
The police say "we will check the fingerprints."
They bring out the items in the safebox.
The police show Zeus the items and ask "Is there anything missing?"
Zeus says "there is a document missing, it's a title deed for a piece of land."
Zeus looks again at the items. Zeus realizes his seal is missing.
Zeus tells the police "the seal is missing with this seal anyone can chomp any document for an immediate transaction."
Police ask "what type of seal is this, is there any pattern or colour"
Zeus asks "for a piece of paper." He draws the seal on the paper and indicates the colour parts.
Police look at the seal. "Oh, this seal! You're the descendant of the famous..."
Zeus says "yes, I am."
The police say "we will investigate the case, any updates we will inform you immediately and if you have any suspects please inform us. We will investigate further."
Zeus says "thank you."
Zeus says "now the most important is to find Jim".
Police ask "who is Jim?"
Zeus says "my lover, he was in the house while I go to work. Because last night he wasn't feeling well."
The police ask "is your lover trustable because since he is in the house and your safebox has missing items."
Zeus says "I trust him and since he is missing along with these items it isn't a coincidence. Jim is the son of the dead founders of the "Ja Las" oil and gas industry he is the only son his parents died when he was 6 years old. Currently, his adopted father is a businessman CEO of I-Tech."
The police hear this "Ja Las" the couple who died in the accident. The case is still unsolved today.
The police say "means Jim is targeted but why did they steal the land title deed and the seal? Are these items related to Jim or you?"
Zeus says "this person might be involved in Jim's parent's accident. I don't know if Jim is in danger now. The missing items are my seal and title deed for a piece of land worth $1,000,000."
The police say "we will check around for more information. We cannot determine whether Jim is in danger now or not but surely they are targeting Jim and planning something."
Zeus says "please update me, thank you."
By the time the police left Zeus' house, it was already 5 pm.
Zeus receives a call from his secretary.
"Sir, I am outside your house."
Zeus walks outside his house.
His secretary says "these are the documents that needed signatures, Sir your schedules all have been re-schedules but there is a problem with T company the person-in-charge says he cannot change his schedule due to his schedules are fully packed. Your appointment with him is on the day after tomorrow at 11 am".
Zeus says "no choice, I will meet him, where is the location?"
"It's at D-Café."
Zeus says "if anyone asks of me in the office just say I am working from home."
The secretary says "okay" and she goes off.
Zeus now looks at his house messed. He locked up the house and board a taxi.
Zeus has no choice but to check into the hotel to stay and he has to find a housekeeper to tidy his house.
Zeus looks at the documents he has to sign.
Suddenly he feels hungry.
It's been hours since he hasn't eaten anything.
Zeus tells the taxi driver to drop him off at the nearest mall.
Zeus is holding the company documents. He thinks he should eat fast and check in at the hotel before it gets late.
Zeus walks into the mall and looks at the directory and finds the nearest restaurant.
Zeus steps into a Japanese restaurant. He orders a set meal.
Zeus quickly eats and look at his headphone to book a hotel room for a few days.
Wah... The dates are fully booked!
Looking at further location hotels.
There is one not fully booked but it's far from here. 2 hours journey.
Hmm... No choice.
Zeus booked a Suite room for a few days.
After eating, Zeus waits for a taxi.
Looking at the queue it's so long.
But no choice...
After 15 mins of waiting finally, it's his turn to board the taxi. Suddenly, an incoming call.
Zeus tells the taxi driver to go to the hotel address and he picks up the call.
"Hello?"
"Where are you now?"
"I am in a taxi on the way to check-in hotel."
"Which hotel? Message me, I will come to visit you we need to talk."
"Okay, I will message you now."
The taxi driver hears the conversation.
"Your girlfriend?"
"No, my friend. Because my house there was a break-in today."
"Oh, where you stay?"
"It's not far from the mall."
"My lover is missing got kidnapped."
"Oh, you mean in the house?"
"Yes."
"This morning I dropped off a passenger who was being drunk early in the morning. It's near to the park landed house. I saw someone piggyback a person out of the house."
"Ah... That's my house. Do you see the person's face?"
"Yes, but I don't want to be a witness."
"No, I just need the person's face who kidnapped my lover."
"Can you please come with me to the hotel room?"
"No, I don't want to be involved."
"How about this we park the car somewhere in front of the hotel my friend is coming he can draw the person's face."
"Okay, if I stay in my taxi I will help you. What time is your friend coming? I still need to work."
"I will pay for your time. Please help me I need the person's face."
While they talking someone knocks on the car window.
