Her Mysterious Life – In love with her secret savior - Chapter 177
“What??” Oliver shouted.
“How could they let her go alone to the mountain?? That too at this time??” he shouted.
“Claire insisted on going but Kyra stopped her, it seems. She insisted on going alone and assured me that she would be back in an hour.” Jennifer said.
“Kyra told Claire that she would not be going deep into the mountains and would return as soon as it starts to turn dark.” she added.
“Still!” Oliver exclaimed angrily. What exactly is Kyra thinking??
“It’s been almost an hour since she went and the sky is already dark. I… I am going to search for her.” Oliver said.
“I… I will come with you.” Jennifer said but Oliver shook his head horizontally.
“If I don’t return with Kyra in an hour, alert Justin and come to search for her. No… don’t wait. Go now only and tell him that one of the staff went missing and has to be found immediately.” Oliver said and ran towards the mountain.
Jennifer nodded her head and rushed to ask for help.
She has to agree that even she is having a bad feeling about this. Her guts are telling her that something bad could happen.
“I should have kept an eye on her. I should have. I promised Oliver and Anthony that I will be there for her..” she muttered to herself as she made her way hurriedly out of the hospital.
Her tension and anxiety is evident in her eyes that the passerby people had to stop and look at her.
“What happened?” Ron asked, stopping her in the middle. He just noticed that their boss, Oliver, was in a hurry as well. And, he could tell that it is something related to Kyra ( Ria Lopez ).
“It… It’s Kyra. She… She is missing. We can’t find her and I.. I think something bad is going to happen.” she said, panting.
“What??” Ron exclaimed.
“I need help.” Jennifer said. Ron nodded his head.
“I will ask my friends to search with me. You go and ask Justin to help you. He will be knowing the terrain well” Ron said and patted her shoulder before rushing to ask the staff from the hospital who came along with him.
While Jennifer and Ron are calling for enforcement, Oliver is already on his way to the mountain. He continued to dial her number though it was coming off. His tension and fear is evident in his eyes and for the first time, his arms are shivering.
If not for Kyra, he would not have managed to walk.
“Ky…why did you do this. You should have asked someone to accompany us! We would have come with you.” Oliver thought as he scolded himself for what happened.
He should have known that Kyra would get this hurt for what he did. He should have at least told her that he would support her. He should have expected that Kyra would get this hurt with his decision to support her brother rather than her.
Oliver walked towards the mountain and the sky already started to turn dark. The only light is the full moon and his flashlight.
He is walking towards the mountain but to be frank he is clueless where he is heading. He should have waited for Jennifer to bring Justin or someone to accompany him. As they are locals they would know where to start and how to search for the people. But he is too worried that he rushed all by himself.
The forest is not so thick and it is a relief that there are no wild animals or thick flora. It means Kyra would have not gotten attacked. There are only two options left.
Kyra should have gone somewhere where she wanted to go and spend some time. Or, God forbid, she might have fainted somewhere.
He hopes that it is the latter.
“Where would she go?” he thought.
After thinking for a few minutes he decided to ask her brothers. Oliver has heard of Kyra’s past but it is mainly focused on Kyra’s biological mother and her family. He rarely heard her talking about her childhood and paternal family.
She used to say that she is not that hurt and didn’t feel betrayed by her father’s family. She used to tell that her step mother and her step siblings never tried to hide their disgust, hate and enmity towards her. What they did, she somehow predicted it.
Moreover, they didn’t try to hurt her. At least not directly.
Their actions towards her made her decide to take her own life.
Anthony, Kyra’s third brother answered the call in the first ring itself. It is as if he is waiting for Oliver or Jennifer to call him. He should be expecting to hear the news that his sister, Kyra got swapped or dropped from this campaign.
However, when Anthony heard what happened, he felt his heart stop. Anger, fear and anxiety took over him.
He is in an important meeting with the clients but he is indeed waiting for a call from Oliver. Ever since he heard that his sister is in her childhood home town, his heart is jot at ease. Just like Oliver and Jennifer, he had an intuition that something bad was going to happen.
“She said she would go to have some fresh air??” Anthony asked. He would have blamed Oliver for letting Kyra out of his sight, but this is not the right time to do it. Finding his sister is more important.
Moreover, he knows that Oliver and Jennifer would be too busy to keep a constant eye on Kyra. They have their work to do and besides that, his sister is sometimes too stubborn that she would still find a way to do the things in her way no matter how many people try to stop her.
“Yeah, she told her colleague that she will return in an hour but it’s been more than an one and a half since she left. I am thinking that Kyra would have gone to visit the place that is very special to her.”
“She is angry at me and Jennifer. She is upset the whole day for not taking her side. So, I think she would have gone somewhere which could make her feel calm.” Oliver said.
“Her grandmother’s tomb. Yes! That’s it. Her maternal grandmother’s tomb!” Anthony said, suddenly realizing it.
“Kyra was close to her grandmother from the maternal side. She once told us that her grandmother used to support her no matter what and spending time with her grandmother would always cheer her up. Even after her grandmother died, Kyra used to go there often and spend most of her time there.”
“Even when… even when Kyra tried to take her life the second time, she was at her grandmother’s tomb only. Even the first time, she has jumped into the river on her way back from her grandmother’s tomb.” ANthony told Oliver.
“So, we can tell that Kyra would go there when she is very upset. But, she also try some extreme methods!” Oliver exclaimed.
It doesn’t look like Kyra goes to her grandmother’s tomb to cheer her up but to become more sad and upset.
“You… You can say that. That’s why you need to hurry there. It’s on the mountain but I don’t know the exact place.” Anthony said. Only he knows how fast his heart is beating.
His second brother and mother are right! They shouldn’t have allowed her to go to America only! They made a big mistake by letting her go.
“I will… I will go there as fast as possible. William, is there any other place where she would go to calm her mind? I don’t think she would have gone to her grandmother’s tomb.” Oliver said. He doesn’t know why but his gut feelings are telling him that Kyra wouldn’t have gone to see her grandmother.
She is not that sad and upset to go and cry her heart out. She is upset and hurt but not to the extent that she can’t bear it. She is happy and she is cherishing the life she has now.
Even if she wanted to meet her grandmother and tell how she is living her life, she would have gone on a good, sunny day and maybe she would have asked him to accompany her.
He didn’t know why but he felt like that. He is little confident with his intuition because he and Kyra think very alike most of the time and that is the reason they don’t have to speak much but what is going on in each other’s mind. They simply understand each other.
“There is another place. The river. Kyra loves that place and she told us that it has a calming effect on her.” Anthony said.
“But, please go to the tomb as well. Ask someone to check the riverside and you go to the tomb.” Anthony said. It seems like he has some other thoughts.
“Yes, I will do that.” Oliver said and he cut the call. As soon as he ended it, he called Jennifer and told her to ask Justin to accompany her to the river side.. He wanted to go there but he can’t ask Justin to go to the tomb because they have to reveal Kyra’s past to do that.
