I Will Save You

*Mark's POV

I have been trying to find her for two weeks now, but there is still no hint of where she could be. This is seriously driving me insane. Sarah is also trying her best to find a clue about her, but there is nothing except her suspect, David. I'm at my home right now, trying to investigate all the information I collected. Kelly is also here to answer my calls since I didn't want anyone to disturb me. Not even Sarah. I was trying to look at David's documents when I heard a knock on my door. It was Kelly.

"It's 9 pm, sir," she stated

"You can go. Take one of the drivers with you," I said as I returned my focus to the documents.

"Do you want me to relieve some of your stress?" she questioned slowly approaching me.

"Not now, Kelly," I replied, not removing my eyes from the document. But she didn't listen she went behind me and started massaging my shoulders. "I said ..." she didn't let me finish.

"You need it, Mark," she whispered, moving her hands to my chest. I didn't like where this was going, so I held her hand.

"I said not now, Kelly. Now you can leave," I removed her hand from me. She smiled and sat on my lap. "Kelly, you are getting on my last nerve," I said, annoyed.

"What? Did you find someone who can replace me?" she asked, moving her hands to my stomach.

"Kelly, this is not the right time to piss me off. So get off of me before I blow your head right here," I warned her.

"But you're getting hard. Are you sure you want me to leave?" she whispered seductively. That's it, I pushed her from my lap, and she fell hard on the floor.

"I TOLD YOU THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT TIME TO PISS ME OFF!! NOW LEAVE AND DON'T YOU EVER SHOW ME YOUR FACE," I shouted at her. She got up, brushing off invisible dust from her shirt.

"Don't give false hope to your bitches, Mark. One of them called today asking for you," she angrily stated.

"Who?" I was confused since I never give my number to my one-night stands.

"She must be hurt. She said she was no one when she found out that we were at your home," she explained. "She was excited, poor girl," she said pitifully.

"Kelly, don't make me angry and tell me who the girl was?" I asked, grabbing her arm harshly.

"I don't know. Her number is still there! Call her!" she yanked her arm from my grip and stormed out. I immediately called the number she was talking about, hoping that it was her. The phone was picked up after a few rings.

*O.T.P

"Hello, you called this number," I said slowly.

"I don't remember calling," it was a girl.

"Are you sure Ma'am?"

"Yeah, I'm sure. This is my daughter's phone," she paused. "Wait, maybe it was her," she said, making my heart skip a beat.

"Who?"

"That girl. wait a second, Emma, who is the girl you were with today?" she asked someone. "Liah," a little girl shouted, making me freeze at my spot.

"L ... Liah," I shattered. "Ma'am, can I talk to your daughter? You can put it on speaker if you want," I requested.

"Yeah, sure," she said and called her daughter.

"Hey dear, my name is Mark. I am going to ask you something, okay? Who was the girl you were with today?" I asked nicely.

"It was Liah and David," she replied cheerfully.

"David?"

"Yes, David. He bought Liah a lot of ice creams, and she gave me two," she explained.

"Where did you meet them?"

"Thorpe park," it was her mother.

"One last question, I will send you a photo. Can you tell me if it was her?" I just wanted to make sure.

"Sure," she said, and I sent her the photo. A few moments later, she said, "Yes, it was her," making my heart beat go ten times faster.

"Thank you, Ma'am. Good night," I said before hanging up. Finally, I found her. I found her. I can't believe it. I didn't waste any time calling Sarah since she was also worried. She picked up right away.

*O.T.P

"Hey, Mark. Is everything okay?" she asked with a sleepy voice.

"Liah called today," I said waking her up completely.

"Really? Did she talk to you? Is she okay?" she sounds excited.

"I haven't talked to her. She called from a stranger's phone. I know where she was, so we will find her tomorrow," I explained.

"Yeah, yeah. Thank you for letting me know,"

"Stop thanking me, Sarah. You know Liah is also my responsibility,"

"I know, good night. We have a big day tomorrow,"

"We do. Good night," I hang up. 'I will find you, My angel,' I thought and went to my bedroom.

I woke up in the morning when my alarm went off. It was 6 am so the sky was kinda cloudy. I quickly take a shower and changed into jeans and a t-shirt. I then wore a jacket and proceed to call Sarah.

*O.T.P

"Sarah are you up?" I immediately asked.

"Yeah, I'm up. Where should we meet?"

"I'll pick you up,"

"Sure," she said before hanging up. I took one of my cars and drive to her house. After ten minutes I was there and she was already outside waiting for me. I signaled her to get in as soon as I got there and we started going to Thorpe park.

"Are you sure she was there?" Sarah questioned unsurely.

"That's what they told me," I responded.

"Why would they go to the park? And why would she call you with a stranger's phone?" she started her investigation.

"We'll find out now," I said parking the car inside. We both then got out but I didn't have any clue where to start.

"Let's go to the restaurant. That's the first place she would go," She said leading me to the restaurant. A smiling waitress welcomed us as soon as we got in.

"Sorry Miss, I'm here to find my best friend. She was here yesterday," Sarah stated politely.

"Can you show me her photo?" the waitress responded nicely. Sarah then showed her the picture. Thankfully she recognized her. "Ah, this girl. She came with her fiance," she cheerfully spoke making me more nervous and scared. "Ask Cathrine, she was the one who took their orders," she pointed at a blonde waitress.

"Thank you," Sarah said and we went 'Catherine'. She greeted us with a different expression on her face. She had a bitchy attitude. "Hey, have you seen this girl?" Sarah asked nicely.

"Yeah, she was a bitch," she said after taking one glance at her picture. My blood started boiling. How dare she call my angel a bitch.

"Mind your language, Miss," I glared at her.

"As you can see I'm busy. So stop wasting my time," she left making us dumbfounded. I scanned the place and saw that there were CCTV cameras. I asked the previous waitress where the manager was and he was nice enough to let us see what was on the cameras.

We are now in the security room watching all the videos since yesterday morning. Around 10 am, I saw them coming inside.

"There she is," Sarah said excitedly. My tears start to build up seeing her state. She was dragging her left foot. I zoomed in and saw that she had a bandage wrapped around her ankle. She held David's hand for support which was making me angry. After that, they sat at a table and Cathrine took their order. Liah seemed uncomfortable when he held her hand which made me more furious. After a few moments, Cathrine left and Liah seemed pissed. "She must be very hungry," Sarah's voice cracked.

"Why did you say that?" I raised a question.

"She is extremely nice unless she is hungry," she forced a smile. I fast forward the video until I found something interesting. David was paying with an exclusive black card. According to my investigation, David is a normal student whose monthly income is not more than one thousand dollars. So how come he owns an exclusive card? Not a minute later he took a bunch of black cards from his wallet which made Liah open her mouth in shock. All of a sudden my whole attention went to her. She was adorable while checking the cards excitedly. She was like a pure child checking those cards. She was also talking while examining the cards which was so damn cute. He then told her something that made her choke on air. He gave her water and went beside her and started caressing her back. She said something then he went closer to her face and whispered something in her ear which made her eyes widen in shock. After that, he kissed her making my heart shatter into a million pieces. When he pulled out her eyes were teary. I couldn't watch it anymore, but at the same time, I must know what happened. Sarah completely forgot my existence. She was busy gritting her teeth and sending death threats to David for touching her friend. He finally got his neck closer to her face and now I could only see her red puffy eyes. She was kinda begging him but he didn't listen. So she leaned in and did something which was not visible to us. A few seconds later he removed himself from her and wiped her tears. And finally, they left the restaurant.

'I will save you from this monster, my angel. That's my promise,' I thought and we went out of the security room.
