Andrea stood at the gate, but when Baron Howard drove here to find Andrea already left.
He considered her to go somewhere to do something. However, Andrea did not come back ten minutes later.
Baron felt it was abnormal about her.
He frowned and dialed her phone number.
The voice of a ringing was especially sharp to hear at night.
âHum?â he got off his car and followed the voice to go ahead.
In a parterre near the gate, he saw Andreaâs mobile phone.
Barren started to worry that Andrea was in trouble now when he looked at the screen of the phone still showing his calling number.
He went inattentive for a few seconds due to the worry and soon became calm down again.
Barren looked around and saw a nearby camera flashing.
He walked back to the banquet to talk with the host, âPlease go to get the last one-hour records of the camera at the gate.â
The host was shocked by Barrenâs surge of anxiety.
It was obvious that he did have something urgent, because he had always been a man who loved to hide his feelings in heart. Now he seemed to be so anxious and acted in such a rush that the host dared not ask more to lead him to the CCTV office.
In the office, the host turns to check the record of the camera at the gate.
At the beginning, there was no problem about the signal.
Nevertheless, when seen Andrea was ready to leave with her phone, the records on screen was interrupted by snowing suddenly. Until three minutes later, it came back to normal.
It was someone intended to do it. But who?
Barren asked, âAny other cameras here?â
The host thought about it and called the person in charge here. Finally, they got records of three other cameras.
To his surprise, it was the same situation as the first one. Whenever Andrea appeared, there was snowing on the screen for three minutes. Once the records turned normal, Andrea disappeared already.
From what happened tonight, the host knew how important was Andrea to Barren.
The host was extremely nervous about the fact that Andrea came to attend the event organized by him, but got lost at his gate.
He said, âBarren, I donât know anything about it. This is my first time to meet her.â
Barren could not wait him to finish to say, âI know.â
He walked out of the CCTV room and dialed a couple of numbers.
The staff from IT department of KJ Group arrived soon to recover the camera records.
At last, they did not make it with all of their best.
These staff almost cried out with their boss getting much more annoyed.
From all the information, Barren understood he could not blame on them, since Andrea was sure to be taken by some powerful one and would not be found easily. The person should have planned this for long time.
It was schemed very well to take her after the event finished and clear all evidences here.
So, Barren did not believe that he could find out the criminal too easily.
But who is the one, with such strong power and motivation?
All faces of the people they knew ran through his mind. Now the Andersonâs family went on the decline; the ones hated Andrea would be happy to see that with no need to do this. As to the Howardâs family, no woman saw Andrea; even if she saw, as far as he knew, she would not do so much.
And then, who...
Matthew Todd! The name came into Barrenâs brain.
This one, getting power and motivated, to estimate the precise timing to take Andrea.
Barren fisted on the table and looked furious. In recent time he was so gentle to the ones around him that someone dared to bother him.
Now he got the suspect and drove to the house with a couple of guys with no hesitation.
Matthewâs house was located among many villas on the DS District which Barren drove for one or two hours to get to.
He was at the door and watched the house hidden in the trees. He looked as horrible as an evil just out of the hell to kill someone.
The housekeeper, a faithful middle-age man, came to open the door.
âHow are you? Mr. Barren.â
Barren judged from their eye contact to see the middle-age man was not the same as he appeared.
Barren asked, âIs Matthew Todd in? Let him out.â
The housekeeper answered, âMr. Matthew was just home and was asleep now. If you would like to meet him, I am going to call him.â then he took Barren inside the house.
Barren was a little bit surprised and lowered his head.
Matthew was at home? It was astonished that he took risk to go back home after taking Andrea away! Did the housekeeper cheat him?
On the contrary, Matthew was unexpected to be stay home.
Meanwhile, he just finished the shower to go to sleep.
Matthew came down from the second floor in a white bathrobe. He was also surprised to see Barren here and asks, âMr. Howard, you come to see me at night. What can I do for you?â
âI come to ask you to release Andrea.â Barren replied him in a peaceful voice.
Matthew said, âMiss Andrea was missing?â after a few second, he smiled to go on, âIf she was missing, you should go to find her. It is funny you come to my house to get your girlfriend.â
âDid you not hear me?â Barrenâs patience almost ran out, âWhere is Andrea? Tell me! I will forget what you did.â
Matthew was annoyed too, âMiss Andrea is not here. May I ask you leave now? Here never welcomes rude guys.â
After a sneer, Barren could not control himself anymore and tried to pinch his throat, and asked, âWhere is she?â

Matthew watched Barrenâs eyes with full of fury but still talked calmly, âMr. Howard should keep in mind, my LA Group does not fall behind your KJ Group too far. If you donât stop, I will let you know the result for sure.â
âBarren Howard! What are you doing? Stop now!â before Barrenâs reply, another 30sâ man came down; he looked a little week.
Immediately, Barren knew from his similar face to Matthew that this is some elder brother, Quinn Todd.
Matthew said, âBarren Howard, I told you already, stop!â
âOtherwise, Miss. Andrea might have some accident...â
