Kerry was overwhelmed. After a pause, Kerry said gently, “I’m going to work now.”
But he received no response at all.
“I’m sorry. I was wrong yesterday.” Kerry said with regret, “You can beat and scold me if you want, but
don’t ignore me. Venus, I love you very much.”
Venus didn’t even change the rhythm of her breathing.
“I….”
Kerry was in the middle of a sentence when his cell phone rang again. He took it out and found it’s
secretary Liu again. Kerry knew secretary Liu must be urging him on and he hung up the phone
directly.
At ordinary times, Kerry would stay with Venus instead of going to work, but the meeting that morning is
very important. The meeting was decided after a long time of negotiation with Americans.
“I asked Mrs Qin to make your favorite porridge. Go to eat some when you get up. I’m going to work
now.” Kerry said.
After saying that, Kerry looked at Venus for a while before he walked out of the room.
When the door closed, Venus opened her eyes, filled with sadness.
Kerry came to the company with mixed feelings. “Fire the two women in the secretariat.” Kerry said to
secretary Liu before the meeting.
Secretary Liu was confused and said, “Mr Ye, which two women do you refer to?”
Kerry gave him a cold look and said, “The two you just hired.”
“Did they do something wrong?” Secretary Liu said.
“Just do what I said. Why are talking so much nonsense?” Kerry said harshly. “Yes, I will do it right
now.” Secretary Liu lowered his head and said.
Kerry walked quickly in front and secretary Liu followed him. “The two women know their place. And on
their first day at work, I told them not to mess with Kerry, or they would be fired before they know it. Did
they do something to make Kerry unhappy?” Secretary Liu thought.
Seeing the anger of Kerry, secretary Liu thought that Kerry must have quarreled with Venus. Only
Venus could let Kerry bring his personal emotion to work.
Kerry turned his phone into silent mode during the meeting because it’s a video conference.
Three hours later, the project, which involves several billion yuan of investment, finally made some
progress.
“I look forward to our cooperation very much. Welcome to China and Sky City.” Kerry said with pure
British accent.
The man with blond hair on the screen said with a smile, “OK. We’ll do that as soon as possible.”
“Goodbye!”
“Bye!”
At the end of the meeting, Kerry rubbed his sore eyes and habitually took out the phone in his pocket.
After taking a look at the phone, he sprang from his chair, drawing the eyes of the senior executives.
There were more than 30 missed calls on his phone, all from Ye’s villa.
Kerry’s heart beat fast. He had a premonition that something must have happened at home.
Kerry hastened to call back. The phone rang only once before being answered. “Hello. John, what
happened?” Kerry said.
“Oh, sir Kerry, you finally answer the phone. Venus’s gone.” John said.
“What did you say?” Kerry said. His voice changed out of worry and he ran out at a great pace.
“Venus’s gone. At about nine o’clock, Venus went downstairs to have breakfast. She played with
Pingan for a while and then went out for a walk. I didn’t expect that she wouldn’t come back. I asked
the security guards at the gate and they said Venus went out at about ten o’clock.” John said anxiously.
“Asshole! Why don’t you stop her?” Kerry asked angrily. It’s twelve o’clock at noon, and Venus has
been away from Ye’s villa for nearly two hours.
“Sir Kerry, who dares stop Venus if she wants to go out?” John said in injured tones.
Now at Ye’s villa, everyone knows that Venus is of more authority that Kerry, so no one dares to stop
her.
Kerry was angry and wanted to hit someone. “Why didn’t anyone follow her? Don’t you know she is
pregnant?” Kerry said.
“Why you argued with her as you know she is pregnant?” John said in his heart.
“Venus said she is so annoyed that no one should follow her.” John said frankly.
Kerry’s heart sank when he heard that. It seemed that Venus was really angry this time.
“Did she bring her phone with her? Has anyone been sent out to look for her?” Kerry said.
“She brings her phone with her, but it’s turned off. Henry and Nighthawk have been out to look for her
with some people.” John said.
At that time, Kerry ran to the elevator and pressed the button hard. “Where is Pingan?” Kerry asked.
“He is at home, but he is in a bad mood and he keeps silent.” John said. John felt distressed when he
saw Pingan sit on the doorstep, motionless.
“Keep an eye on him. Don’t let him run about.” Kerry said.
“OK.” John said.
After hanging up the phone of John, Kerry called Henry to ask about his search.
“I am now looking for Venus in hotels and Nighthawk goes to the traffic police group to check the
surveillance video. There is no news of Venus yet.” Henry said.
Kerry lay his hand on his forehead and said, “Let me know if there’s any news.”
“Yes, sir Kerry.” Henry said.
The elevator descended very fast. Kerry stared at his phone for two seconds and then called Tianye
Mu.
“Hello. Who it that?” Tianye asked while knowing the answer, arrogantly.
Kerry felt a drumming in his temples. “Tianye Mu, you’re fucking enjoying yourself by talking nonsense
in front of Venus, don’t you? Well now, Venus’s gone. If anything bad happens to her, I’ll kill you.” Kerry
scolded with loud voice.
After hearing that, Tianye was shocked. Instead of caring about Kerry’s scold, Tianye asked, “What did
you say? Venus’s gone?”
“Yes. She ran away from home in anger. Are you happy now?” Kerry said through gritted teeth. If
Tianye is in front of him now, he must give him a good beating.
“Don’t speak in a voice dripping with sarcasm. I haven’t settled the matter with you yet. Now go to find
Venus first. If you can’t find her, I will show no mercy to you.” Tianye said.
Kerry hung up the phone angrily. Then the elevator arrived at the first floor. Fang was waiting for Kerry
at the door of the company for he had got the news from secretary Liu.
“Mr Ye, where do you want to go?” Fang asked.
Kerry had no clue at that moment and he didn’t know where to go.
He used to think Sky City is too small for him to build his business empire, but at that moment, he
thought Sky City is so big. There are cars and people everywhere. Where should he look for his
missing wife?
Seeing the anxiety and pain on Kerry’s face, Fang didn’t dare to ask again and started the car.
“Drive slower.” Kerry said. Then he kept his eyes fixed out the window.
The weather that day is very bad. The dark clouds were all over the sky and the next second seemed
to be pouring. Kerry couldn’t imagine what he should do if it rains and Venus’s still outside.
The streets were crowded with people. Kerry suddenly remembered some of the sweet shops that
Venus used to go and asked Fang to drive there.
As soon as the car stopped, Kerry got off the car and ran into the shop, asking, “Hello. Has my wife
been here?”
As they are regular customers, the owner knows Kerry and Venus.
“She hasn’t been here.” The owner said.
Then Kerry left the shop disappointedly. He went to several other shops and got the same answer.
As time goes by, Kerry became more and more worried.
At that time, Nighthawk called Kerry.
“Boss, after Venus came out of the villa, she got into a taxi and the car disappeared on Jiangnan Road,
where there is no monitoring.” Nighthawk said.
“Let’s go to Jiangnan Road.” Kerry said to Fang.
“Yes, sir.” Fang said.
“Jiangnan Road? It’s not downtown, and it’s relatively out of the way. Why did Venus go there? Could it
be that she was kidnapped?” Kerry thought.
When the idea came to her, Kerry felt even more uneasy.
What if others kidnap her for they think she is beautiful and recognize her?
“Fang, drive faster.” Kerry urged.
It was closing time, and no matter how skilled Fang is at driving, he couldn’t fly through the traffic.
When they finally got to Jiangnan Road, the lightening hit and there’s thunder.
Thunder rumbled down from the sky and crashed overhead.
Kerry was on tenterhooks. “Venus, where are you? I swear I’ll never lose my temper with you again.
Please come out now.” Kerry said to himself.
Kerry’s phone rang again. He took a look at the phone and found it’s Tianye who’s calling.
He thought Tianye had got news and he answered the phone immediately. “Have you found Venus?”
Kerry asked almost at the same with Tianye.
