Chereads / Ella Smith / Chapter 71 - ANDREW IS MISSING

Chapter 71 - ANDREW IS MISSING

She spoke to him some days ago and he had told her that he wasn't in the country at the moment but now he is not reachable at all.

Jessie sits on her bed holding her phone looking very worried and confused. What really happened to Andrew? Did he get caught? Or did he had to cut contact because of some urgent situations. Whatever had happened, Jessie prayed and hopes he wasn't in the hand of the police.

She remembers the first time she met him, he was young but had a timid look on which made her doubt if he could really do the job or not.

Not that she was scared of him telling the police about her, he is an hired assassin he dares not blow the cover of whoever he has worked for. Even if he tried to do such, Jessie would have him executed before he tried to speak. The only thing that had her worried was his well being, she really cares about him. Out of all the members of his crew, he was her favorite.

Jessie looks at her phone for a moment and tries calling Andrew again but it wasn't going through. She closes her eyes and takes a very deep breath in confusion, and again calls someone else. The phone rang for a while before the person could answer the phone. "Hello, Tony."

"Hello madam." Tony answers with a sign of respect in his voice. "How are you doing ma'am?"

"When last did you hear from Andrew?" Jessie asks ignoring his greetings.

"A couple of days ago."

"I have been trying to reach him for the past two days now, but all to no avail."

"Really?" Tony asks with a lot of shock. "What could have happened to him?"

"I don't know too, the last time we spoke, he told me he was going to be out for a while that he had an operation at hand." Jessie explains with a lot of worry.

"Then, do you think he got caught? And he was arrested?"

"Get arrested? Hell no!!!! Andrew is no novice when it comes to this business. If he had get caught, then no one of you is safe either." Here, Jessie was already trying to make it clear that Andrew was so good at his job.

"So what do you think I should do now?" Tony asks.

"I want you to track that his cell phone number for me, find any means to track him down. Report to me immediately when you find out anything."

"Alright ma." Tony says and hangs up.

Jessie holds her phone with both hands very close to her jaw rolling her eyes in a lot of worry, and also thinking of what could have actually happened to Andrew until Linda came in, with her burning red eyes also reeking of alcohol.

"You seem to be worried mom." Linda says sarcastically and walks very close to her mom.

"Where are you manners?" Jessie asks as she drops her phone on the bed very close to her.

"Did you teach me one?" Linda asks her mom and it really hit her hard. They locked eyes and she continues talking. "Why asking me about manners when you clearly didn't teach me one?"

Jessie scornfully looks at her daughter who was already standing in front of her, like she had something she wants to talk about. "Have a seat."

"Thank you Almighty Mrs Jessie." Linda says mockingly as she sat.

"What do you want? Money? Or what is it?"

Linda looks at her mom in disbelief for a while. "You really don't deserve to be a mother, I came into your room and the first thing you think is I want is money?"

"If it's not money then what do you want? Don't you always need money?" Jessie asks again.

"I don't need money." Linda retorts. "I came to discuss something important than that."

"What is that?"

"It's about my dad."

"What about him?" Jessie asks as if Paul was nothing.

"Why are you acting as if he is nothing to you?"

"Little miss!" Jessie calls calmly. "Say whatever you want to say about your dad. It's already annoying me."

"My dad is already annoying you? Then why did you marry him in the first place?" Linda asks loudly.

"I am not in the mood for this right now, say whatever it is you want to say about your father or get out of my room."

She didn't want to go out, she really had to discuss this thing she had noticed about him. So she swallows her pride and speaks up. "I think my father needs medical attention, can't you see how he is always grabbing his head in serious pains?"

"I have noticed that too, I will tell him to take a test when he comes back this evening. Is that all?"

Her mother was already asking her to leave. Sometimes she wonders if Jessie is truly her mother. Linda quietly stood and exits the bedroom.

Jessie eyes follows her as she walks out of the room, and immediately she shuts the door on her way out Jessie exhales deeply. She would have really loved to spend more time with her but she has a lot going on in her head. One is Ella, the other is Andrew.

Once! her phone rings and she could see that it was Tony, she answers the call immediately.

"Hello ma'am." Tony says in a very sad tone.

"Yes? any news on his whereabouts?"

"No ma, I can't seem to track or reach him. It seems he cut of all contacts on purpose probably he was caught or something. Andrew is missing!"

"Missing?" Jessie asks loudly and stood in shock.

"Yes ma." Tony replies.

"Find him, do whatever it takes to find him. I am ready to spend any amount, just make sure you find him. Is that clear?" Jessie asks and hangs up, without listening to what Tony had to say.
