CHAPTER 4

Taking the keys out from the car , I walked towards the large house in front of me . The door opened and naturally , I entered. But there was no one near the door . I didn't want to go back because of this simple problem so I started discovering all over the house .

Even though it was not in details, a faint map of how the house was designed lay imprinted in my brain . I started going through the housw in detail the second time to try and find my boss . While looking , I came across a really old picture of a happy and smiling family . It was so old that the sides of the print had started to wither away . How could a photo that old be with someone ?? Perhaps it was passed generation from generations was all I could think of . But then , why would someone pass the pictures of a simple family photo ??? The incoming call from my phone broke me from my trance .

"Hello?? Who is this??"

Although I asked who it was , I was almost certain that it was that man . And I was right . That creepy deep voice greeted me again . "Hello . I see you examining my personal things, " He said sarcastically . " Walk towards the basement and don't act like you don't know where the basement is because I also saw you looking around my house ."

So it was his house . I simply hung up the call and went inside the basement . My phone rung again . " You thought I kept your boss in a place so easy to find?? Listen what I have to say fully . You'll find a golden key behind the basement door . Take the key and go to the place where you were examining my picture . When you move it , you will find a keyhole . Open it . That's another door . Your boss is in there. Free him and tell him to tie you up to the chair he was tied up ti and make him leave . Don't think that I won't know if you don't tie yourself up . I have cameras as well as other sources everywhere ."

This time , HE hung up on me . I followed his instructions as there was nothing I had as proof on him to be caught. " Rene, you don't have to this for me you know . I don't care if he pays for what he did or not. Don't put your life in danger. "

My boss was continously trying to persuade me to change my mind but he would never succeed . " We don't know for sure whether he has bad intentions for me . I don't even know if he wants to kill me ! So don't worry about me and try to make that bitch pay for his actions!!"

I cheered him and he left with guilt shining in his eyes ..

I heard the engine starting and the noise fading away ...

As soon as the car went away , the door opened widely . And the man stood there.....
