Chapter nine

"Look piece of advise, there is actually nothing we can do about it now. We can only report a missing person, no, not until after 24 hours. Just go home, pray and wait for her" The cop finished 

"Alright, thank you for all your help" Gonzalez mocked and left. 

Gonzalez picked up his phone to dial Mrs. Williams but what could he possibly tell her? Better to wait and see. 

Gonzalez had slept off on the couch but was awakened by someone shaking him rigorously. 

"Mrs. Williams!" Gonzalez almost screamed. He was certainly not expecting her.  

"It is nice to see you too, Gonzalez" Mrs. Williams jeered

"I wasn't expecting you" Gonzalez stated 

"Of course you weren't, how soon you have pushed my daughter to the background" Mrs. Williams said 

"Excuse me?" A confused Gonzalez had said 

"I am just wondering how soon you have gone from " we" to "I" yet, you claim to be in love with Natasha" Mrs. Williams explained 

"How long before you told me? Tell us? My daughter was missing and you didn't think it right to let me know?" 

"I thought she was with you" 

"You lying son of a bitch, you don't even believe that. She left all for you. Why didn't you call?" 

"I could not bring myself to" Gonzalez admitted 

"Well, now you have to face it. What have you done to my daughter?" Mrs? Williams screamed 

"Woah, please. I cannot, I will never think of hurting my wife" Gonzalez objected 

"Even after the pictures?" 

"What pictures? Ah, the pictures you sent, you sent them to elicit that kind if response?" Gonzalez asked, understanding finally dawning on him 

"It will be a good claim in court" Mrs. Williams defended 

"What did you do with her?" Gonzalez had had enough 

"Me? How dare you suggest that I could have had my daughter abducted?" 

"Who told you she was abducted?" Gonzalez asked and she went silent, feigning anger 

"From the calls to meetings, I'm beginning to see things clear now. You know, she actually told me she went to see you yesterday for whatever reason and then you forced her into meeting with Matthew and took photos without her knowledge, and sent them to me, expecting a reaction, something terrible that could make it easier for you to break us apart. My God, what have you done to your own daughter?" A troubled Gonzalez asks 

"You gave no idea what you're saying or what manner of trouble you're in" Mrs. Williams warned 

"And what does that mean?" Gonzalez retorted, I was tired of being pushed around or pushed to the background. 

"You better be finding my daughter instead of laying around or you will hear from me" Mrs. Williams finished and left. 

As Gonzalez stepped out of the house, there were news men and women out the door, probably being brought on by Mrs. Williams. They asked too many questions, questions that he did not have answers to. 

"Is it true you forced Miss Natasha into a marriage with you?" 

"Did you self-abduct your wife to extort money from your in-laws?" 

"How do you take care of a family without a job?" 

"How ungrateful can you be?" 

"Do you know what love means?" 

"Do you love Natasha?" 

And that was it, he rushed back into the house and decides to call Austin, only him can help him out of this mess. 

"Young master...sir" Mr. Davies started 

"I need your help" Gonzalez cut him off 

"Yes, anything please. What is it?" Mr Davies asked

"Uh, I have newsmen all over my house" Gonzalez explained 

"Might you happen to know why?" Mr. Davies asked 

"I think it has to do with my wife. You see, my wife hasn't been home since yesterday after she went shopping" Gonzalez explained 

"I will see what I can do. Why didn't you call me when you wouldn't find your wife? Do you need help with that too?" Mr. Davies inquired 

"No, I think I can handle that well enough on my own. No offense meant but I have to do this personally, I think I understand what is going on" Gonzalez answered 

"Sure, anything you want, sir" Mr. Davies acknowledged 

"I have a favor still" Gonzalez begged 

"Yes?" 

"Please as you wave the newsmen off or whatever you do, do not reveal yourself as doing so might expose and endanger me. I still need time to process of all this" Gonzalez pleaded 

"Will do, sir. I wouldn't dream of endangering your life or that of your family, I would rather die" Mr. Davies promised. 

(The Williams' Residence) 

"That didn't work on him, believe me I tried" a frustrated Mrs. Williams was saying to Sylvester

"I tried but he was not intimidated' Mrs. Williams continued and only stopped when she noticed Natasha walking into the living room. 

"Who was not intimidated?" Natasha asked 

"Uh, just some client proving to be difficult" Mrs. Williams answered 

"I could try him, hand it over to me" 

"I can do this on my own" Mrs. Williams said not taking her on the offer 

"When do I get to go home?" Natasha asks 

"Soon there" Mrs. Williams assured 

"But how soon enough? My husband would be worried sick about him" 

"Oh, don't worry. I already reached out to him and he was okay with it for the safety of you and the baby" 

"Mom, as much as I want to believe that, I just cannot, and it is not surprising. You called Gonzalez?" Natasha asks in shock 

"Yes, of course. When it comes to your safety, I would do anything for you" Mrs. Williams explained 

"What do these kidnappers want anyways? I have nothing of theirs" 

"They could be after the money. Or you know this new deal" 

"The new deal? What about it?" Natasha asks 

"Well, turns out a lot of people want this partnership deal and will do whatever it takes to take a competition out of the game" 

"What?" 

"Yes, it's nothing new. We done that a couple of times, just less dangerous" Mrs. Williams said smiling. 

"Really mom?" 

"It's all business, honey."
