Chapter 230 - What Is Your Plan?

Mike exited the Infinity Jade Tower and boarded his car going back to his mother's mansion. He will pack his stuff and stay in Angeles Pampanga for a while to find his wife, he won't come back to Metro Manila unless he will find his wife.

He will comb every nook and cranny of Angeles Pampanga to find his wife, sooner or later he will find her. He will never give up no matter what.

There are many fully furnished condo units for rent there in Pampanga, he will rent one for the meantime so that he can have a place to rest and sleep during the night and he will find her during the daytime and an early night.

After thirty minutes of driving, he finally arrived at the mansion.

He immediately entered the house and climbs the stairs going straight to his bedroom.

Susan exited her room and saw her son going to his room in big stride. "Son, where are you going? Why are you in a hurry? The maid told me that you went out," she asked.

"Yes, Mom. I went to brother John's house a while ago 'coz my wife already contacted her sister Catherine and they have a short phone conversation. John had put a phone tracker app on his wife's phone. He already located Caroline's whereabouts, the exact place where she made a phone call," he said.

Susan's face brightened up after hearing the good news. "That's good! If you need anything, let me know. I'll help you in any way I can so that we can find your wife as soon as possible!" she offered.

"Thank you, Mom. I'm going to Angeles Pampanga and stay there for a while to find my wife. I'll be renting a fully furnished condo there. I will update you every day of my progress. I'm going into my room now and pack my things," he said.

"Good luck, son. I hope you will find your wife as soon as possible!" Susan said with a note of relief in her voice.

Mike proceeds to his bedroom to pack his things.

While Susan went downstairs going to her flower garden.

Two hours later.

Mike exited the bedroom holding two traveling bags in both hands. He went down the stairs, exited the main door, and deposited the bags in the trunk of his car.

He walked on the path heading towards the flower garden and found his mother attending to her Bonsai plants, her latest addiction. "Mom, I'm going now..." he bid his mother goodbye.

Susan looked at her son. "Take care son, drive safely and call me after you already settled in Pampanga," she said wearing a pleasant smile on her face.

"Yes, I will," he replied and turned around going back to his car.

Susan's gaze followed her son as he walked away from the flower garden. She will just stay on the sideline and watched as things unfold, she won't do anything unless he will ask her help. Her son must learn to fight his own battles because he's old enough to decide for himself.

She returned her attention to the Bonsai plant that is in front of her and continues cutting the branches according to her desire.

Meanwhile, Mike was already driving his car out of the gate of the mansion and proceed to his journey towards Angeles Pampanga.

Back in Infinity Jade Tower.

Catherine was done feeding her children. Baby James was playing with his toy cars on the floor while baby Angel was lying in the bed beside her mother playing her dolls.

Catherine placed a call to her mother Thelma to inform her of the good news regarding her conversation with Caroline earlier. Her mother calls her every day wanting to know if her missing sister already attempted to contact her and she would always answer, no, to her.

Her sister Lily called her several times to inform her that she caught her mother crying in their room due to the stress that their sister Caroline had brought to their lives.

She can only sigh heavily and instructed her sister to watch over her mother's health all the time. She doesn't want her mother to suffer so much, stressing about Caroline's disappearance, that is why she wants her twin to return home, ASAP!

Her call was finally answered by her mother.

"Hello, Catherine..."

"Mother dear, I have good news for you!" Catherine exclaimed in a cheerful voice.

"What is it!? Tell me quick, is it about your sister Caroline? Did she already call you?" Thelma asked eagerly.

"Yes, Mother dear. She called me today, early in the afternoon after lunch at around 2:00. We talked for a few minutes then she said goodbye and she will call me again next month," she answered.

"So...how is she doing?" Thelma asked, teary-eyed.

"She's fine, she asked for you, Jacob and Lily. I told her that we are all fine. I urged her to return to us immediately but she refused and didn't tell me where she is residing right now..."

Thelma fought back the tears from falling her face. "Why is your sister like that? Why can't she tell you where she was staying and when she will come back? I can't understand why she has to stay longer out there," her voice filled with anguish for her wayward daughter.

"Mother dear, please relax. Don't worry so much...The next time she will call me I will try my best to convince her to come back soon," she said feeling guilty that she wasn't able to convince her sister to return home.

"Did Mike already know that your sister contacted you?"

"Yes, Mother. Mike knows already and he is going to Angeles Pampanga today to find his wife there," she responded.

"Huh? I thought you didn't know where Caroline is staying? Why are you mentioning Pampanga?"

"My husband John installed a call tracker in my phone that would allow us to locate the location of the caller in my phone, so yeah, we found her location but it's a big area so finding her might take days, weeks or even months and worst if she changed location again, I have to wait for her call next month," Catherine explained and sighed.

"We don't have any relatives in Pampanga. Why is Caroline staying there?" asked Thelma in utter puzzlement.

"I honestly dunno, Mother," Catherine said scratching her head.

"Alright, thanks for informing me, daughter. I'll say bye for now. I'm going to start preparing for dinner. Just in case your twin calls again, tell her to call me so that I can also talk to her and convince her to return home," Thelma said.

"Okay, Mother. I'll call you tomorrow, give my love to my siblings, bye-bye," Catherine bid goodbye to her mother.

"Bye," Thelma said and ended their phone conversation at her end.

While in Allison's mansion. She was furious after knowing that Caroline bought a new cellphone and already contacted her family. She very well knew that Caroline's call can be traced anytime.

Damn! That girl is being careless! She doesn't want Caroline's family flocking to Angeles Pampanga looking for her!

She released a deep sigh.

She went out of her bedroom and sauntered to the staircase, she spotted her minion relaxing in the living room watching TV. "Owen..." she called his name.

Owen raised his head towards the staircase. "What is it, madam?" he asked.

"Prepare the car, we're going to Angeles Pampanga today!" she ordered.

"Are we going to sleep over there, Madam?" he asked.

"No, we will come back here with Greg and Caroline," she replied.

Owen was already climbing the stairs to go to his bedroom to change his attire. "What is wrong with Caroline, Madam?" he asked curiously.

Allison's nostrils were flaring with annoyance.

"She bought a new cellphone and contacted her family. Once her family traced her whereabouts, they will come to Angeles Pampanga looking for her. Before the shit hits the fan, we will bring Caroline and Greg back to Alex's house and Caroline will be grounded there," she replied.

"Okay, Madam. I'll just change my clothes and ready the car," Owen replied and sauntered towards his bedroom.

Allison also went back to her bedroom.

Inside the bedroom.

She put her wallet, cellphone, and other essentials in her black shoulder bag. Then entered the bathroom to have a quick shower and get ready for their journey to Angeles Pampanga.

Thirty minutes went by.

Allison was done dressing and ready for the trip. Before she exited her bedroom she places a call to Alex.

"Ali..."

"Bro, I will go to Angeles Pampanga today. I will get Caroline, Greg, and Rudy and send them back to your house..." she said.

"Huh?" Alex asked in confusion. "Why does Greg want to leave the beach early? I thought he was enjoying your beach house?"

"He is...but we got a problem...Caroline called her family and I'm sure they are already tracing her whereabouts in Angeles Pampanga," she informed him.

"Huh? How did you know?" he asked in bewilderment.

Allison rolled her eyes. "Hello...have you heard about a tracker app that can track a phone call?"

"Oh...that...I haven't think of that..." Alex admitted stupidly.

"If you have a missing family member that doesn't want to be found, you will be expecting that he or she will call you shortly, so, if I'm Caroline's family I would install a call tracker app on my phone. I bet they already have done that. But even if they didn't, I'll still pull out Caroline and Greg from my rest house just to be sure," she elaborated.

"Alright, I will instruct the housemaid to stay late for your arrival, guys," Alex said.

"Good! Bye for now, I'll call you later after I arrived at my rest house," she said.

"Drive safely," Alex reminded her.

"Okay, Owen will drive the car not me," she responded. "Bye bro," she murmured and ended their phone conversation.

She put her phone inside her black shoulder bag and also her silencer gun and exited her bedroom, she sauntered towards the staircase and descended.

Owen was already waiting patiently for her in the living room.

"Let's go!" Allison said.

"Alright Madam," Owen replied and rose to his feet, he waited for his Madam in the door.

Together they walked outside and boarded the car that was parked in front of the entrance of the mansion. Owen drives the car towards the gate.

A few minutes later, they were already speeding into the open road along with the multitude of cars moving in the busy highway.

Their journey was smooth sailing after they passed several traffic lights.

One hour later.

Owen and Allison made a stopover in the fast-food restaurant along the highway for dinner.

Fifteen minutes later, Mike also parked his car in the parking area of the same restaurant and entered the entrance of the establishment to order some food for dinner.

The minute Mike entered the door.

That was also the moment Owen glanced randomly at the entrance...his eyes widened instantly. "Madam, Mike is here! Look at the entrance!" he whispered in Allison's ear.

Allison looked over her shoulder and saw Mike walking towards the counter, it looks like he was ordering some food. "As I have suspected..." she murmured.

"What we're going to do, Madam?" Owen asked panicking.

Allison glared at her companion. "Calm down, there is nothing to panic about. He didn't know us, but we know him. Just pretend that you don't know him and act naturally!" she hissed.

"Alright, Madam," Owen answered and returned to his normal self.

They continue eating while occasionally glancing at Mike's location, he was sitting on the last table located on the north side of the restaurant.

"Madam, what is your plan?" Owen asked curiously.

Allison's eyes bored into his. "Tonight, I want to test your loyalty to me. I brought my gun with me. Kill Mike for me," she whispered in her minion's ear.

Oh my!

Owen's face went white in shock, the color drained out his face.
