Chapter 50 — More One Case
Christie sitting on the large sofa in the room without any windows bites her own knuckle finger and stares around. Events were turned around too quickly and not understandable for her. She did not know what she supposes to do and had no possibility to talk with someone. Unexpectedly she become being cut from the rest world, she feel she lost her orientation. If she have a chance to make only phone call!
But the phone, as well all other contacts was inaccessible for her. Christie got up, putting her hands in pockets her new jeans and with sadness look around their holdings. "All things just for your," said her just a few several hours back... never mind who. In that moment she had no doubt that it meaning exactly this, but now her guts have said her that she fell into the trap. Now she felt sorry that she said nothing to Mary...

"So Christie is missing," Cruz looked with strange glance at Mason.
"Yes," Mason confirmed. "She is missing just as she was not born after all."
"Too wondering--" Cruz absently said.
"But what is you wanted to hear from her?" Mason asked. "You think that she have any connecting with that bomb, right?"
Cruz paused, but then finally answered: "I wanted to ask her if she pay an attention to the one person who can be around her."
"What is the person?"
"One suspicious person. The former agent, who suddenly came up here several weeks back."
"Do you suspect him?"
"No... But I am sure that his appearance not accidentally. Can not be accidentally with his biography."
"But what is special in his biography?"
"I cannot say now."
"Cruz, the case is about the life of the very young girl!"
"My information nothing gives to you. But besides no data that Christie was hurt."
"Do you want first get her dead body? Or badly damaged corpse?"
"No. But at least the call for a ransom."
"I don't think that the call for a ransom will appear," Mason shook his head. "Not for the case."
"May be. But I cannot to say more."
"I don't go to inside. My bride and me was attacked, her sister has stolen. Really do you think that you can able to discharge me from the investigation?"
"I do not think this," Cruz smiled. "And therefore check up please two names, OK? Francis Parker and Josie Worth. I am interesting any information about them, all stuff that you will be able to dig."
"Parker and Worth... sounding familiar. Did they connect with Timmons?"
"No," Cruz raised his head from papers and with interest looked at Mason. "But why you asked?"
"Well, I have some associations."
"This is interesting thought," eyes' Cruz flashed, and Mason noticed it. He wanted to ask Cruz about than exactly interesting his thought, but Cruz overtaken him. "Find all that you will be able, and give me to know. I will keep you be informed."
Mason understood the tip-off and came out of Cruz's office.

Mary sitting and look at telephone. The last hour and a half she tried to concern with different deals, but don't care returned meaningless and devastated thoughts. Christie, please, call me! Give me to know that you are okay! Give any sign that you are alive!
She did not know that at the other end of the city, in one of rich mansions, Christie prayed about the same thing. She wanted to call her sister and to tell her everything, but she has no possibility to do. She was locked in "the golden hutch" by the person, who was trusted by her as far as lesser.
