Your silence is killing me
EP.43 Stuck

James returned to his office and worked hard. There was someone waiting for him at home. But, Ben spoils his delusion by saying there will be dinner with Bella's company team.

"Ben.you're the only one present." said James.

"I don't care, sir, but your image is not friendly because it can't distinguish personal problems" said Ben.

"Ck. alright, I'll just come for a little while." James replied.

Ben arranged for James's schedule and work that day. Even so, he still had time to contact some people who had other clues about his missing sister.

Now he meets a trusted informant who works for him.

"How's it?" ask Ben.

"It turns out the person is not sane sir.he is currently languishing in a mental hospital" said the informant.

Brak's..!

"Why do you always find dead ends? " says.

"Where is the mental hospital where the man is being treated?" ask Ben.

"At the hospital Xxx. His name was Benjamin." said the informant.

"Alright, thank you, later your salary will transfer" said Ben.

"Okay sir, thank you." said the informer.

"Find out the man's background, because maybe his family or friends know something" Ben said.

Ben returned to the office and asked his man again to check on the man named Benjamin. And ascertain the background of the person. It was so hard to find her sister who went missing in a fire more than 20 years ago.

Meanwhile, James finished all his work in order to attend the meeting and then went home and met his wife. Ben who just arrived with a disappointed look also attracted the attention of James.

"You're decided unilaterally?" ask James to guess.

"Sir, I don't have time for love affairs.I'll keep looking for Daphne while I'm alive" Ben said.

"Sorry man, I'm just kidding." said James.

"So how's the preparation?" ask James.

"in 15 minutes we leave" said Ben.

"Okay.I'll call Lyra if I'll only eat with you guys for 1 hour" James said.

Lyra who was contacted also felt herself considered by James. Even the man told me how long he would be out of business hours. Lyra smiled and would wait for him while studying some of the videos her senior sent her.

Bring James and Ben to dinner with Bella and her company. They gathered and ate together after James said a few words to encourage them.

They all cheered for their success this time and excitedly welcomed another big project. Go to that dinner. Everyone seems happy and familiar with each other. So does Bella who tries to be normal to James.

"Please sir.." said the waiter.

"I don't drink." declined James.

"Alright, put the glass away for Mr. James" said Bella.

"I'm married, and it doesn't seem good if my wife sees me coming home drunk" James said.

"Well, James, I appreciate your decision" Bella said.

"Take water for Mr. James .." ask Bella for the waiter.

"If strategy one fails, be forced to use the second strategy." murmured Bella inwardly.

A drink came to James, and he drank it. I don't think time goes fast. An alarm was heard indicating James should go home. The alarm he deliberately made so as not to get carried away and make Lyra wait.

Meanwhile, Ben was even drunk so he could not take him home.

"Ben.. What's wrong with you?" james asked annoyed.

"Sorry sir, I just feel disappointed" Ben said.

"Ckk. I'll get you a cab." said James.

After the taxi came Ben went home first, and James went home in another car. James had already told his personal driver to pick him up, but suddenly his head was dizzy and spinning. He did not drink a single mouthful of wine. Until the phone call from Lyra.

"Hello.. James." said Lyra.

"L-yes what's wrong?" asked James to wake up.

"I will pick you up, because Mr. Agus is sick" said Lyra.

"All right, I. I'm waiting." said James.

"You drunk? I'm on my way." said Lyra.

"No, my head is heavy. What am I supposed to do?" said James stammering.

But Lyra lost quickly to Bella and Sandra who were already in the location. They both appear to be helped by several men taking James somewhere. Bella's devious plan goes smoothly, because no one suspects. James had lost consciousness after disconnecting from a phone call.

"Good job, let's take it to the hotel." Bella ordered.

"Yes" said the driver.

While Sandra, she is still there and in charge until all the employees of Bella's company come home. And when Lyra comes, it looks like people from the company are coming out of the restaurant.

Lyra stared all over the place but could not find James. Finally, he asked the employee at James' company.

"Excuse me, are you an employee of Mr James?" ask Lyra.

"Not the lady, but the man." show a man and then call the man he's pointing at.

"Hey, come here." call him.

"What's wrong?" ask partner.

"Sorry before, have you seen Mr James?" ask Lyra.

"Mr James had been delivered home by Miss Bella because her secretary Mr. Ben came home first because he was drunk" he said.

"Thank you, sorry to interrupt" said Lyra.

"Yes, we're going home, ladies" they said.

Lyra calls the house, and they say James hasn't arrived yet. Then Lyra saw the woman who came with Camila at the restaurant at that time.

"Excuse me, you must be Camila's assistant" Lyra said.

"I'm sorry, my boss is Miss Bella" he said.

"Bella's? has Camila changed her name? but yesterday I was sure Camila and this woman were her assistants or secretaries." Lyra murmured inwardly.

"If you may know, where did Miss Bella take Mr. James.? I happen to be his wife." said Lyra with great emphasis.

"Hmm, of course, to the lady's house" said Sandra.

"really?" ask Lyra not to believe it.

"What do you mean by your question?" ask Sandra.

"Hallo. bi has the master arrived?" ask Lyra on the phone.

After getting an answer, Lyra smiled at Sandra.

"But my husband didn't come home, where did Miss Bella take him?" ask Lyra.

"I don't know miss." said Sandra.

"Oh.. Do you want to trick me?" ask Lyra.

Guards around Sandra also approached Lyra.

"What'sthis? it's cheating." said Lyra.

The bodyguard pulls Lyra's hand, and drags her out at Sandra's behest. Lyra was just silent and smiled, then in the next minute she fought the two guards. He dropped both guards.

"Look at your crimes against me recorded on cctv." said Lyra.

"A stupid base against a weak woman can't" Sandra said.

"Now call your boss, Miss Bella" said Lyra.

"No way, it's already night, miss must have rest" said Sandra.

"I'm sorry I had to do this to you." said Lyra then snatched the phone in Sandra's hand.

Then Lyra locked her hands and contacted Bella. Not to forget Lyra threatened him to report his actions if he dared to mess around because everything was recorded by the cctv. And Sandra called her superior on Lyra's orders.

"Hallo miss.." said Sandra.

"What's Sandra doing?" ask Bella.

"Have you arrived?" ask Sandra.

"Yes, don't bother me." said Bella disconnecting the phone.

Lyra smiled, especially her housemaid has not told her anything. And Bella's last words to ask Sandra not to bother her.

"Can you tell me where your lady is?" threaten Lyra by locking Sandra's arm until she screams.

"Aaaaa. alright I'll talk." said Sandra.

And somehow the conditions there are very quiet, so that the actions of Lyra no one reprimands. Sandra says where Bella took James. Lyra who headed furious also immediately headed to the hotel.

But the cunning Sandra has called some people to dissuade Lyra from disturbing her superiors. Given this is a long plan that Bella has been working on for several years.

"Ck. basic dirty how you play" said Lyra surrounded by several people.

And suddenly, a bodyguard appeared from somewhere. And one of them was obviously the head of the bodyguard named Dimas who James told him about.

"Dimas, are you following me.?" ask Lyra.

"Sorry miss, your safety is our priority" Dimas said.

Dimas also cleaned up Sandra's people with several people. Eventually, he managed to save Lyra. They also take Lyra to the hotel where James will be framed according to Lyra's prediction.

"My safety is a priority, but you yourself are not vigilant..!" lyra in the heart.
