Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 686

"Naughty girl. You can't even recognize my voice. Where is your sister-in-law? Is she back yet? I called her, but her phone is off." Nathan was serious. He pursed his lips as discontent clouded his face. His body was visibly tense.

"What? How would I know? I'm very sleepy right now. Can we discuss this tomorrow?" Nacy was only half-awake.

"Nacy, I am giving you three seconds. Get up right now and check if your sister-in-law is in her room!" His face was angry and hard. Nathan's usually magnetic voice was now rough.

Even though she was only talking to him on the phone, Nacy could feel the anger reverberating from Nathan. Still groggy, she got up and went to check on Mandy.

The bedroom was quiet and dark. The bed was made. It did not look slept in. No one was in the room!

Nacy rubbed her eyes and ran to check the bathroom and the dressing room. There was no sign of Mandy.

What happened? Where was Mandy? Nacy knew that Adrian had gone to visit his grandparents. Did Mandy decide to go with him after work? She hadn't seen Mandy at all. She had been too exhausted when she finally got home. She had taken a quick shower and went straight to bed.

Shivering, she turned on the light and picked up her phone. It took a total of ten seconds for her to react.

'Is my sister-in-law missing?

It is already eleven o'clock at night. Why hasn't Mandy come back home yet?'

Nacy felt a little nauseous. "Brother, are you still there?" she asked.

"Yes, I am," Nathan responded, his voice stony and cold.

"I have bad news. Do you want to know? Your wife has eloped with another man!" Nacy blurted, without waiting for her brother to reply.

Nathan slammed the phone down without a word.

Shrugging, Nacy went back to bed. After all, it was not her wife who had run away. Nobody knew what Nathan was so worried about. Mandy was a grown woman, where else would she go? Nacy didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.

As soon as Nathan ended the phone call, his hands immediately reached for his tablet, sitting on the table. His slender fingers slid across the tablet, searching Mandy Zhou's call records. His eyes finally landed on a name, Colin!

Nathan squinted then picked up his phone to call Serge.

Serge had been asleep. But, being a light sleeper, the sound of the phone woke him up. He had developed this habit back when he served on the force. The simple sound of a phone ringing always alerted him.

"Mr. Jin...?" Serge squinted, then instantly sat up when he saw Nathan's name flashing on his phone.

"Where is Mrs. Jin?" Nathan's tone was flat, and his eyes fixed on the number on the tablet.

"Mrs...," Serge started. Hasn't she come home yet?" A bad feeling arose in his stomach. He took a look at the time on the phone. It was already eleven o'clock!

"No. Find her and bring her back right away." Nathan's face darkened as he took his eyes away from the screen and stared at the floor.
