The Secret Bride's
Episode 127: Valerie disappears again!

Darren's family arrives at Valerie's apartment. They rushed out of the elevator and pressed the bell of the apartment. Not until 15 seconds the door opened, there Darren stood welcoming the two. Deora smiled gently as she hugged her son.

The warm embrace that Darren had always longed for, finally greeted him. He returned the embrace was not less tight. Pouring the feeling of sadness and happiness on the shoulders of the mother who raised and cared for her from childhood.

The father behind the wife smiled. Patting his son's shoulders gives him encouragement. The same love in a different way. It's easier for me to express myself than it is for my father. Maybe not all, just some.

"Mother, Valeri-"

Huusstt

"It's okay, son,"

"Let your mother be with Valerie, let's talk!" The father walked towards the sofa in Darren's direction. While Deora meets Valerie in the room.

Deora pulled the door and walked inside, she frowned finding an empty mattress with no occupants. Nimble, he pushed the bathroom door that was also empty. His feet quickly walked towards the balcony and were empty. He did not find the whereabouts of his son-in-law.

Knowing something was wrong, he ran outside the room. Her husband and son turned to look at Deora because of the woman's noise.

"Where's your wife? She's not in the room," hearing her mother, Darren jumps up and runs towards the room and is right. Blank.

Check out another room in the apartment, but Valerie is nowhere to be seen. Darren's face turned pale. Wife's missing. The phone rang, the name is Are.

"Are?"

"Sir, Madam sent me a message. He's at his friend's house and he'll be back tonight."

A fella? Who he meant.

Valerei always asked her permission if she wanted to leave. Strange thing, he left without giving any news when he was in the apartment. However positive he thinks, that is not true. He felt bad things were happening.

It wasn't until 10 minutes, when she left the apartment to pick up the package below. Whether with such a short time, things happened that he did not know.

"Are, check the building cctv. My wife can't just leave and text you."

Are rushed to meet the building security department. He asked to check the CCTV footage from an hour ago.

Inside Darren's apartment is busy calling his people, asking them to look for the whereabouts of his mysteriously missing wife. Likewise, the father, he asked for help from his friend who worked as a police officer. He asked that no one would know and be done in secret.

For a businessman like Darren, the slightest information is very useful to make him fall. Especially if it's about her family's information.

Darren thought for a moment, on screen Frederick's number but he hasn't made a call. And in the end he didn't call. But she calls Hye Na, a nurse Valerie's best friend.

A surprised voice sounded as he asked Valerie whereabouts to the woman, he knew that his wife was not there. Then, who? Who is the person he refers to as a friend. In Darren's heart wondered.

Darren thanks her and tells her not to tell her husband, let him speak first. After that Darren sent a message to Frederick for them to meet. For Frederick it was better to tell in person than to talk on the phone.

The man went back to look around the apartment, checking if there were any traces of break-ins or forced entry. However, everything was as it was, he also did not see the scattered items or move places. Clean as before.

A few minutes later there was a call from Are. He told Darren that his wife was not on CCTV at all. No part of this building recorded Valerie coming out.

No way, again.

His head suddenly dizzy, bad memories approaching him. The shadow of the accident and the kidnapping of the wife haunts him. He pulled back and hit the wall hard. His mother stood up and hugged him who was sitting on the floor.

"Wake up! Your wife's waiting!" Firmly the father to his son who lost consciousness for a moment.

Darren let out a heavy and long sigh, both he and Valerie had nightmares back then. The cell phone that came to the floor he took, still connected call Are.

"Dream! Take the tape and come with me to the base after that we go see Frederick!"

"Mother, Leon, she's sleeping in the next room."

"Mom will take care of her, calm down!"

"What's up, son?"

"Valerie's sandal,"

Deora was confused, then why?

Darren turned to look at his father. "My wife wasn't on CCTV, there's no way she'd come out without a camera. The spoon he used was only one and lay under the seat, his partner out of nowhere. I'm going to see Frederick,"

The man turned to look at his mother's eyes. "Dad, have your men help me find Valerie's missing sandals. I'll have Nola and Han help. Thank you." Thank you."

When his father and mother nodded he immediately came out. Don't forget to bring the sandal to the right that he found.

In the car Darren saw CCTV footage. He looked closely, but there was really nothing. His Istir was not recorded coming out of his residence. Just in case, Are also asking for footage from the next building. Scared, if his boss' wife is carried through the air through the balcony. However, nil. All the footage is useless.

If his wife wasn't on CCTV then where would she go? There's no way he's disappearing like magic. What in his apartment there is a magic room that can make it anywhere, like a Doraemon bag. Please do not fantasize excessively, cursing himself.

"Master, I got word that Lim Sujong is moving strangely."

"Weird how?"

"Before he was near the apartment then he stayed near the cafe, after that the next morning he went home and went to the office. I followed him but in the middle of the road he stopped and went against the direction. According to the taxi driver, he remembered the woman because of her striking clothes. After getting the call, he asked to get down. Then I couldn't find where he was, like he just disappeared."

"Where was he sent down?"

"In front of Yong Bank."

"He's in the bank?"

"No sir, long enough for the taxi driver to leave. So he could see Lim sujong just after he got off and took another cab."

"Did the taxi driver hear what he was talking about?"

"He only heard that the caller was a man, and Lim sujong said he would meet him at a cafe near the beach. He doesn't remember the name of the cafe, just knows that the name of the cafe is not Korean."

"Find out if Lim sujong has any other informants!"

Are nodding. Darren didn't want any more help than before.

Cellphone's ringing. Hyuk is the caller this time. He forgot, there's Hyuk.

"Hello?"

"Valerie's phone can't be reached, is she with you?" Hyuk.

"Hotel M, I'll meet Frederick. Valerie disappeared from the apartment."

Hyuk's voice turned heavy.

"What's going on?"

"Come."

Shut down that phone line. Darren changes his plans, he won't be in the headquarter and just sends Are there. He himself will meet Frederick and Hyuk at Hotel M.
