Chapter 132 He wished he could smoke (2/2)

Who said she was calm? Who said she did not feel anything after what happened? She was just that good of covering her real feeling. She was a model, for Godsake. She knew how to convey any feeling without letting her real feeling break through the mask!

Mika's eyes widened. Tears started to gather in her eyes to see Ryn suddenly got angry.

Ryn turned around and stormed into the building. She was too furious to even talk with anyone. She could not hold it anymore. She just wanted them to tell her the truth, to involve her on this matter. She was not a child to be protected from everything!

Somehow she could find her room and slammed it shut. She even locked the door. She needed to be alone. She could not promise she could calm down when looking at their face. She was too pissed to even care she was hurting Mika's feeling.

*~*~*~*

Jeremy took off the spectacles and rubbed between his brows. He watched as his team busy using the computer to stop the news from getting worst. They tried the deleting news, asking the bloggers and newspapers to pull back the stories but when one story was taken off, two more appeared. This war was getting endless.

”Mei Li, how's your end?” he asked, looking at the woman busy talking in the phone.

Mei Li lifted up a hand to signal him to keep quiet and not to disturb her. Her mouth moved quickly, trying to make the receiver understood but it was hard. That person refused to cooperate with them.

Jeremy turned his attention to Jacob and saw him busy talking on the phone.

”Coffee, boss,” a young girl offered him a cup of coffee.

He took a paper cup and watched the girl offering to everyone there. He finished the coffee in three gulps. Then, he threw the cup into the dustbin before walked out of the room. He needed fresh air to calm down. He was getting too frustrated and it made him lost his composure when the person he was talking to refused to work with him.

How he wished he could smoke!

He managed to stop the urge, using Ryn as his motivation every time he had the urge to smoke but right now, he wished he was still smoking.

He walked back and forth, trying to calm down. He even looked at Ryn's picture on his phone to help him find his peace.

About fifteen minutes later, he walked back into the room and saw everyone froze. He cocked an eyebrow.

”What is it? What's wrong?”

Everyone looked at him. Their eyes showed shock and surprise.

”Jacob?” Jeremy called his personal assistant's name when no one still tell him what happened. Why were they acting like they just saw a ghost?

”B... boss?” Jacob stuttered, standing up in attention almost immediately.

”What's wrong with everyone?” Jeremy asked. Why did he feel something wrong? Has the situation got worst? What is it this time?

He took a deep breath to prepare himself.

”We... we just received a call from the police,” Jacob choked out.

”They could not find him?” Jeremy asked, already giving up with the police.

”Ac... actually... actually they think they have found him...”

”What do you mean they think? Have they caught him or not?” the temper flared again when Jeremy thought the police was playing with them.

Jacob looked at the people behind him and then at Mei Li. When Mei Li nodded weakly, Jacob turned to look at his furious boss, ”They found a body, boss. They found a body in a river. The body looked like... well... almost like the man Miss Catherine said her kidnapper but...”

Jacob did not know how to continue. When the policeman called them, everyone heard it as he put the call on speaker. Everyone was shocked. Even the phone they were holding almost dropped to the floor.

”So he's dead?”

”The things is... some of the body parts went missing... except for the hands and head attached to the body...” Mei Li choked out, trying not to vomit as she pictured the body, ”The body has no,” she pointed between her legs weakly.

Jeremy looked at Jacob in confused. What did Mei Li mean?

”Actually, boss, the body has no feet, ears, and... penis. His fingers and kneecaps were broken.”

Two workers rushed out to vomit. They could not hold it anymore.

The room now only has the frozen Jeremy, Mei Li and Jacob. Well, now only left Jeremy as Mei Li and Jacob also rushed out to vomit.

Jeremy staggered backwards until he hit the wall.

Dead? The kidnapper was dead?
