John was taking a small break from his office works.

He was facing his office back and forth, his mind was fully occupied by his missing wife's thoughts, finally getting tired, he went to the water dispenser and began mixing his favorite coffee and sipping it while watching the afternoon news on TV.

He had checked his email earlier, he received a message from Jerome informing him that his investigation among the small-time human traffickers that he has some knowledge of came out negative.

John already loses hope that Jerome can help him find Catherine.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

He released a deep sigh of sadness and anguished.

He was terrified that years will roll by and he still can't find his missing wife. It's been six months already since her disappearance and until now no progress and no result yet with all the advertisement he runs on TV, magazines and radio stations. He was already spending millions for the advertisement still not a single clue on Catherine's whereabouts can be found anywhere.

He doesn't want to lose hope yet, he doesn't want Catherine to think that he had already given up on finding her and their baby, he will keep going no matter how tiring and frustrating it will be.

Countless sleepless nights have passed, sometimes he will just stare at her black blouse, jeans, shoulder bag, sandal and wallet in the wooden box and fresh tears would fall down his face. He would sob like a child during his sleep and muffled his cries with his pillow. Sometimes he would scream in frustration inside his bathroom. He would ask God over and over again, why his wife? Why it has to happen to him and his little family? He can't understand what this trial in his life was all about. He felt like the mental torture he was suffering right now was endless as the ocean.

Ahhh, he needs to breathe fresh air for a while, go out with his family, spend some time with them just to reduce the pain he was suffering even for a tiny bit.

Two days ago, John already reserved a table for four in the famous 'Crown Oriental Hotel' In Makati city. They will be dining tonight at 6:00 in the evening, that 20-story hotel is famous for its rooftop restaurant boasting a magnificent view of the entire Makati City.

He had not dined out for a long time since his missing wife's disappearance. He has no desire to go out but this time he wanted to spend some quality time with his family. It's been a long time since they had dinner outside, that was ages ago, and it would be a good bonding time for him and his family.

~Mike Family's Mansion~

Susan wore the elegant dress she had bought from her favorite women's apparel boutique and the embroidered cream-colored shawl she especially commissioned to be made by her favorite tailoring and designer. It's a sleeveless black and white dress with exquisite lace detailing. She had applied a little makeup on her face. She doesn't want to do overboard with her makeup because it's just a dinner date with her son.


Susan called Mike on her phone. "Son, where are you?" she asked.

"Mom, wait for a few minutes, please, I will arrive in a moment. I'm still talking to my friend, we're nearly done. How about we will just see each other in the restaurant? I won't miss your birthday dinner for the world," Mike answered.

Susan sighed. "Okay fine, see you at the Crown Oriental Hotel that housed the famous Michelin Five Star restaurant. I already reserved a table for two there. Don't let me wait for too long, I will be very upset, son. You don't want to ruin my birthday celebration, right?"

"Of course not, Mom. You are the best mother in the whole world for me, which is reason enough I won't miss your dinner birthday. Who are the other visitors, Mom?" he asked.

"Only the two of us. I want it to be a private birthday celebration for us. I have to go now, don't be late!" Susan said.

"Aye, Mom! See you there!" Mike replied.

Susan took one last look at herself in the mirror, satisfied with her appearance, she picked up her Gucci Marmont black shoulder bag and went down the stairs to board her car and then proceed to the restaurant. It will be a thirty minutes drive towards the five-star restaurant located at the rooftop of a 20-story hotel.

The thirty minutes drive to the hotel went by quickly.

Susan exited the car walking towards the entrance of the hotel. She texted her son that she will wait for him in the hotel's lobby. She had decided to wait for her son in the lobby because she doesn't like sitting on the dining table alone, waiting for her son that might take ages to arrive. What she hated the most is waiting for someone even if it's her son. She'd rather wait in the lobby for his arrival. She spends her idle time browsing on her tablet for the latest fashion trends of dresses, shoes and ladies bags. Getting bored scanning thousands of ladies apparel, she browsed local and international news, instead.
