Chapter 90：The Journal

Tim saw the thick smoke in the garage.

Some firemen are still distinguishing the fire.

Tim stopped his car.

He hurriedly gets off his car and walks closer to the garage.

"Mr. Tan!" Tim heard Coby called him.

He stopped in his track and turned his head to Coby's direction.

Coby took big strides towards Tim.

He is panting as he reached him.

"Coby, what exactly happened?" He asked.

Coby took a few deep breaths before he spoke.

"The security said, that there is an explosion in the north side of the garage, " Coby replied.

Tim went silent as if he is thinking.

'An explosion?'

Tim looked at Coby again.

"Did they notice any suspicious person in the garage before the explosion?" He asked.

"According to the security guard, there is someone who came tonight to have a check on the newly arrived bus units, but after an hour the explosion happened," Coby reported.

Tim narrowed his eyes.

"A check-up at night?" He wonders.

'That is already suspicious!' He thought.

Tim looked at Coby again, "Did you confirm it from the maintenance department?" He asked again.

"Yes, sir," Coby replied.

" But the manager said that they did not send anyone to do a check-up because they don't do a check-up at night." He added.

Tim took a deep breath.

"I was thinking the same too, sir." Coby agreed.

"How many units have been burnt?"

"About ten units, sir," Coby replied.

"Prepare the papers to claim the insurance," Tim ordered.

"Copy that sir!" Coby replied.

"How about the garage, sir?" He asked.

"The fire department said that we have to do a clearing, they will also investigate the cause of the fire. Where will we put the other units, sir?

"We have to transfer to the garage at Hilltop Village temporarily," Tim replied.

Coby froze as he looked at Tim.

The garage at the Hilltop Village was the old garage of Tan Corporation's busses.

It is outside the City and the road is a bit risky.

"But Mr. Tan. I heard that the old Master Tan already ordered to abandon that place a long time ago." Coby commented.

Tim sigh!

'I know!' He thought.

And he knows the reason why his father ordered to close that garage fifteen years ago.

Because he doesn't want to go back to that place again!

"We don't have a choice, we have to fix this garage."

"We need a wide space for all the units and I can't think of any temporary garage but the garage at the Hilltop Village, it's just temporary, anyway," Tim said.

"Alright, sir!" Coby did not object anymore.

Kira is half awake, she shifted her position and was about to embrace Tim, who she thought that is sleeping beside her.

Kira knitted her brows when she couldn't touch Tim beside her.

She slowly opens her eyes and looks beside her.

Tim is not there!

Kira looked around before she raised her body.

She checked the time at the clock in the bedside table.

It is almost midnight!

'Where did he go at this hour?' Kira asked her self.

Kira gets off the bed and checked the bathroom, but Tim isn't there.

Kira doesn't know why, but she feels uneasy.

She gets out of the bedroom and went to Tim's study room.

------

Storm smirked as he read the journal.

'The boss will get interested in this!' he said inside.

He then folded the journal and put it in his pocket.

Just then, he heard noises of footsteps from the outside of the room.

Storm looked at the door's direction and realized that he did not lock it again!

Kira knocked on the door before she turned the doorknob to open, but she was met with darkness and silence.

"Click!"

Kira turned on the light to make sure if Tim is not inside the room.

Kira knitted her brows when she saw Tim's messy table.

Her husband is an organized kind of person, so, she wonders why his study room is a mess!

'He might have left in a hurry,' Kira thought.

She entered the study room and started to fix Tim's things.

Kira is focused on what she is doing, but she was a bit startled when she heard a noise on the window's direction.

Kira stopped what she's doing as she turned her head to the window.

She notices the long and thick curtains move a bit.

Kira knitted her brows, 'What's behind the curtains?' she wondered.

'Ohmo! Is there a ghost here?!' Kira couldn't help but think.

Why on earth would the curtain move?

She can't say it's because of the wind.

The windows were always kept shut, so the wind couldn't enter the room.

Kira put down the files that she's holding.

She slowly took a step towards the window.

She wants to make sure what is behind the curtains!
