Chapter 181: Missing Person

The next day, Ryan and Irina left together for the office. The first thing Ryan did once they arrived there was going to a special room used to produce potion X.

However, Ryan was a little disappointed when he got there. Potion X was not progressing at all and it would still take some more time.

Ryan hoped that when the X potion was ready, he would combine it with the red medicine his grandfather gave him. But since there was no progress at all, he had to let go of that dream.

He immediately went to the elevator and was about to go to his room. Arriving at the 9th floor, Valerie was seen about to enter.

"Ryan!"

Seeing Ryan in front of her, Valerie couldn't hide her smile. Ryan then smiled back and got out of the elevator.

"Valerie, wait!"

When he saw Valerie about to get off, Ryan immediately held the elevator door with his feet.

"What's wrong?" Valerie looked confused.

Ryan's gaze was locked onto Valerie's chest. The girl's braces were slightly loose.

Valerie wasn't aware of it and kept staring at Ryan with a confused face. Today, she was wearing a white shirt so people could see what was under her clothes.

"Valerie, your braces are a little loose," Ryan said. He then had reached out his hand and helped fix it.

Valerie was shocked, how could she not notice.

At this time, Ryan's hands were already under Valerie's clothes.

The girl was already blushing, Ryan's big hand was moving under her shirt. Ryan then helped her fix her braces.

"Valerie, remember. These were only meant for me. Don't let other people see it," Ryan said with a mischievous smile. After that, he groped Valerie's chest smoothly. His hands were completely filled with the softness of the girl's skin.

Valerie became embarrassed again, she felt that Ryan was getting bolder even though they were still in their workplace.

However, Valerie didn't fight back at all. She thought that since there was no one around, she might as well enjoy the little intimate moment.

"Okay then, go back to work so no one will suspect," Ryan said as he got out of the lift. "Be careful next time."

When Valerie left, Ryan stared at his own palms. Valerie's growth was really good, but when compared to Irina, she still lost. However, he had trained Irina while he still hadn't had his chance with Valerie yet. He began to think if Valerie would feel better if he trained her.

A lecherous expression appeared in his face, he thought the sooner he screwed Valerie, the better.

When he entered his room, Ryan chatted and joked with other perfume experts as usual. After that, he gave directions to them.

Time flew quickly, it was already time to go home. Ryan was clearly excited, time to stay steady at home! Today, what kind of game would he be doing with his wife?

Handcuffs and whips?

No, Irina definitely wouldn't like it.

Masters and servants?

The last time they did it, he made Irina wear the Japanese-style maid outfit and it really excited him. The time that they spent that night was engraved deep in his memory. He would never forget how the bosslady Irina called him 'master' and did whatever he asked. It was truly an unforgettable night. However, repeating the same thing did not appeal to him. Ryan thought about it for a moment then laughed.

'Alright, today we will play nurse and patient!'

But he didn't have a nurse uniform with him, so he decided to go and buy everything he needed. He also thought of buying sexy lingerie for his wife. Tonight would be fun!

Suddenly, his cell phone vibrated. But the number calling him was not registered.

Although a little hesitant, Ryan decided to pick it up.

"Hello, is this Ryan's number?"

Her voice was familiar. Ryan thought for a moment and realized that it was Megan's mother who called him.

"Yes, auntie. This is Ryan," he said, hoping that the woman wouldn't ask him to marry her daughter again.

"Ryan, is my daughter with you?" Her voice sounded anxious.

"Ugh, no auntie. We haven't met for a long time," Ryan said. He had a bad feeling about this.

"Ah… I see. I don't know where she had gone. I..." Her voice sounded sad.

"What's wrong?" Ryan asked.

"Meggie hasn't contacted me since yesterday."

Ryan was surprised, a caring person towards her family like Megan suddenly disappeared? She wasn't that type at all.

"Auntie, wait for me. I'll come soon," Ryan said, hanging up the phone. He immediately went to Megan's mother's house.

Shortly thereafter, Ryan arrived at his destination.

"Auntie, please explain the details!" Ryan looked worried.

The face of the middle aged woman became increasingly anxious as she said, "Yesterday, Meggie told me that she wanted to go to her student's house for additional lessons. At first, I didn't suspect anything, but she hadn't contacted me until today. We should have had lunch together at my house but Meggie didn't come,"

"Then, I tried to call her cell phone but it was dead. I'm so anxious and kept calling her campus. They said that Meggie didn't come to teach today and her neighbor said she hadn't seen my daughter since last night. I thought that she was staying over at your house so I called you," she added.

"Auntie, don't worry. I'll bring Megan back," Ryan then stood up. "Now, I need you to report this to the police. I will try to look for Megan in the meantime,"

"I'm so sorry to bother you like this, it must have been troublesome for you," Megan's mother was trying to hold back her tears, she still didn't give up.

"Do you know the address of the student Megan visited?" Ryan asked.

"As far as I remembered, she's visited the girl's house several times. If I'm not mistaken, her name is Carla,"

"And her address?"

Megan's mother stood up and answered, " Wait, I'll look for it in a moment."

Then she searched Megan's room and after a while, she returned with a piece of paper. She then gave it to Ryan. 

"I will go to this address now. Stay here and wait for news from me," Ryan said.

After that, he ran as hard as he could to Carla's address without stopping for a second.

The only clue was this student.

Shortly thereafter, Ryan arrived at the address and stood in front of a large house.

When he knocked on the door, a voice came from inside. "Coming..."

Then, a girl came and opened the door. She walked with a stick and her feet were bandaged.

When Carla saw Ryan, she looked confused. "Who are you?"

"Are you Carla?" Ryan asked.

Carla just nodded.

"I want to ask you a moment. Did Megan come to your house yesterday to give you additional lessons? " Ryan asked.

"Yeah," Carla nodded. "My leg is fractured so I can't come to school. That's why Mrs. Megan kindly gave additional lessons."

"How long is the lesson?"

"About 2 hours. After that, Mrs. Megan immediately left."

Hearing Carla's words, Ryan frowned.

"Are you sure Megan really left?"

"Yes," Carla nodded. "I personally escorted Mrs. Megan out of the house, after which she went straight home." Carla looked at Ryan. "Is there a problem with Mrs. Megan?"

"No, nothing. Then, I'll excuse myself first."

After leaving Carla's house, Ryan frowned. He noticed Carla's eyes and gestures, the girl didn't seem to be lying. 

'So Megan started disappearing on her way home…'

It's a little tricky, he had a little to no clues at all that he didn't know where to start.

While thinking, a voice suddenly called his name. "Ryan!"

When Ryan turned around, it was Mia who called him.

"What a coincidence!" He said, smiling bright.

Mia was quite surprised to see Ryan, she didn't expect her friend to appear in front of her.

"Weren't you in Batavia?" She still remembered a few days ago when Ryan asked her for help. She didn't expect that she would meet the guy here. Since his problem was concerned with the most important person in town—Irina Hagrim, Mia had thought that it would take Ryan some weeks to finish it.

"Yes I just came back," Ryan said with a smile. "Don't worry about my problem, everything is settled. Why are you here, by the way? Catching another thief?"

Hearing that Ryan's problem had been resolved, Mia felt relieved too. However, when she heard Ryan's sarcasm regarding catching the thief, Mia frowned. "You mean?"

Ryan shook his head. "If you are not catching criminals right now, do you want to catch my heart instead?"

"I am working on a task," Mia snorted coldly. "My job isn't just to catch criminals, you know. Today, I'm working on missing persons cases. I'm here to gather information,"

Missing person?

Ryan blinked his eyes. "Is the missing person named Megan?"
