Professor MacPherson drove his car to Charles’ house. Anyone can easily tell that professor MacPherson was sad and perturbed. He alighted from his car, walked towards the door and knocked.

“Hello!! Who is at home?” professor MacPherson said.

“I am coming!” Charles’ wife, Peyton, said and opened the door.

“Good day, madam,” Professor MacPherson said.

“Good day, sir; this face doesn't look familiar,” Peyton said.

“Yeah. Can I come in first before a formal introduction?” professor MacPherson said.

“Sure!” Peyton said and allowed professor MacPherson in.

“I am professor MacPherson,” Professor MacPherson said as he sat down on a couch.

“I am Peyton; it’s nice meeting you,” Peyton said.

“It’s a pleasure. Actually, I am looking for one Mr. Charles. I guess this is where he resides?” Professor MacPherson said.

“Yeah! He has gone out. Is he your business partner?” Peyton said.

“Not really,” professor MacPherson said.

“I have been so worried about the job my husband does; he has refused to tell me,” Peyton said.

“Honestly?! This is serious,” professor MacPherson said.

“Have you tried his phone number?” Peyton said.

“Yes, I have done that; but his phone is off,” professor MacPherson said.

“I see…, Charles went out by means of a car; he should be on his way back home now,” Peyton said.

“A car?!” professor MacPherson said.

“Yes, a car. He brought the car here some days ago,” Peyton said.

“Where did this man see a car?” professor MacPherson thought.

“Are you alright?” Peyton said.

“Yeah, sorry,” professor MacPherson said.

“It’s obvious that you are tired; would you mind a glassful cup of cold water?” Peyton said.

“I am not thirsty, Peyton; thank you very much," professor MacPherson said.

“Are you satisfied with the film displayed on the television?” Peyton said.

“Yeah; I have been enjoying the program all along,” professor MacPherson said, and Peyton laughed.

“Who is at home?” Charles said as he knocked on the door.

“Come in, the door is unlocked,” Peyton said.

“I am back home…, professor MacPherson!” Charles said shockingly as he entered the sitting room.

“Charles, I have been waiting for you for some minutes; welcome!” professor MacPherson said.

“Welcome, Charles,” Peyton said.

“Professor Macpherson, I am surprised at this unannounced visit. Hope all is well?” Charles said and sat down.

“All is well!” professor MacPherson said and smiled.

“Alright, professor MacPherson. Peyton, hope you offered our seldom visitor something to eat?” Charles said.

“Yes, I offered the professor a glassful of water, but he rejected it,” Peyton said.

“Why professor?! But you look choked up,” Charles said.

“I am fine, Charles. Can you meet me outside?” professor MacPherson said.

“Alright, professor. Peyton, just a minute,” Charles said, and walked out with professor MacPherson.

“Who owns this car?!” professor MacPherson said.

“It is mine,” Charles said.

“You didn’t tell me you had gotten a car. This car is Louise’s, I can see its number plate,” professor MacPherson said.

“Yeah, it’s Louise’s; I only chuckled,” Charles said.

“But I didn’t ask you to collect his car,” professor MacPherson said.

“Louise doesn’t deserve this kind of car, so we want to make use of it for him,” Charles said.

“Anyways, that’s not what I came here for. I was at your hideout several times, but I couldn’t see you; where were you?” professor MacPherson said.

“Oh! My guys have gone for an assassination mission in Wyoming; they should be back tomorrow,” Charles said.

“Really?!” professor MacPherson said.

“Yeah, professor. When they are back, we will go back to our hideout,” Charles said.

“Oh! No!!” professor MacPherson screamed and Peyton ran out.

“What is it, professor MacPherson?” Peyton said.

“Nothing! Get in now!” Charles said.

“Alright, take it easy, professor MacPherson,” Peyton said and walked away.

“Professor MacPherson, are you crying? What happened?” Charles said.

“My wife has been abducted,” Professor MacPherson said with tears.

“Abducted?! How?!” Charles said.

“Three days ago I received a phone call from my neighbor that my wife had been abducted by four men,” Professor MacPherson said and continued bawling.

“Four men?!” Charles said.

“Honestly, I thought it was you and your gangsters that abducted her, that’s why I am here,” professor MacPherson said.

“How could you think that? You haven’t offended us,” Charles said.

“Who could have done this?” professor MacPherson said.

“Don’t worry, professor MacPherson, my guys and I will get to the root of this,” Charles said.

“Please, do; I promise you guys 1, 000 USD,” professor MacPherson said.

“Wow!! We shall not disappoint you,” Charles said.

“I will be leaving now,” Professor MacPherson said.

“Goodbye, professor MacPherson,” Charles said.
