President's Substitute Wife

There was no one in the toilets on the first and second floors!

Murray and I searched the whole house but didn’t see Margaret. I asked the servant, “where is she?”

The servant looked nervous and shook her head. “We didn’t see her in the morning.”

I rushed to the door. Margaret’s shoes were still there. Did she go out in slippers?

I was very nervous!

I changed my shoes and called the police on my cell phone. The police arrived soon.

Then we went to the security department and investigated the surveillance video.

We found out that Margaret went out at midnight last night.

It was March. She was only wearing thin pajamas and slippers. She was on the road and gone.

“Do you know where your mother might go?” The police asked Murray and I.

Murray and I looked at each other and soon realized that she might be looking for Nelson!

But she didn’t know where his house was. How could she find him!

The police helped me look for her. I contacted Sean and he helped me look for Margaret.

I had no idea. I could only follow the road where I saw Margaret at last. I asked the owners of every shop if they saw Margaret.

Unfortunately, it was midnight and few shops were open. No one saw her at all!

I was really scared.

I had a hard time finding my mother. She couldn’t have another accident!

I regretted my arbitrary behavior yesterday.

I should have let Nelson in. After all, he was the man mom loved.

It was normal that they wanted to talk.

I did it wrong.

I did it wrong.

I kept saying and praying that I could find Margaret soon.

But the morning passed and we didn’t have any news about Margaret.

Where would she go?

I hesitated and called Sean and asked him to help me find Nelson’s phone.

He sent it to me soon.

I didn’t hesitate to call him.
