MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND - Season 2 Episode 47
That night, Nina tossed and turned in bed. She was not able to fall asleep until dawn.
On the other side, John was also not able to sleep. He was up all night sending out more people to look for Nina, but none of them returned with her.
Unable to turn in for the night, he made a bold decision. He decided to issue a reward for whoever brought Nina back home.
John went out and contacted the most influential media company in Lexingport City. The media company agreed to film a broadcast for him. Sitting in front of the camera, he said slowly, “My wife is still young. She doesn’t know her way around the city, and she forgot to bring her mobile phone. She hasn’t come home yet. To anyone who brings her to the Time Group, I will offer a hefty reward. Please help me find my wife.”
When Nina woke up, she saw the fifteen-second video. The man in the video was calm, and his eyes were very gentle. She had heard that deep voice so many times, but for some reason, it sounded foreign to her.
There was a photo of her in the lower right corner of the video. It was one of the selfies she took when she participated in a beauty pageant at her school.
Nina was so rattled that she immediately turned off her screen. She crawled back into bed and decided to go back to sleep.
‘The man in the video must not be John! He hates to show up in public, doesn’t he?’
Nina wished she was going crazy and was hallucinating that she saw the video.
More and more people searched for Nina every day. Noah was also very busy. He went to work early and came home late every day. He did not have time to talk to Nina.
She had been hiding in his apartment for two days.
John had been searching for Nina for two days but to no avail. The whole Time Group, North Yard, and everyone in the Shi family had been drowning in pressure. Everyone had been stressed out by Nina’s disappearance.
At the Time Group
Henry pushed the door to the president’s office and said, “Mr. Shi, we still haven’t found Mrs. Shi.”
“Okay,” John nodded with displeasure, keeping his gaze straight ahead. Cold sweat started breaking out of Henry’s skin. He cleared his throat and proceeded to deliver some much needed good news. “But Richard has found Michelle in Spring City.”
This time, John turned his head at Henry. Cold light reflected in his deep eyes. “Post the video online.”
“All right.” Henry turned around and left John’s office. A few minutes later, Michelle’s video went live on the Internet.
In the video, Michelle was at seaside in Spring City and was looking very happy. Her eyes were like crescent moons, beautiful and luminescent. She said, “Nini, it turns out Uncle John is your husband. Just stay with him. He can provide for you and give you a good life.
He told me that you two are going to hold a wedding, and he asked me to be your bridesmaid. He sent someone to pick me up. I can’t wait to see you at the wedding, Nini. I’m sure you’ll be the most beautiful bride ever.”
When the video was about to end, a man appeared and asked in confusion, “Michelle, I hear that the training you participate in is very important to you. Do you really want to give up the opportunity for Mrs. Shi?”
Michelle replied, “Oh, it doesn’t matter. I have to be Nini’s bridesmaid. I want to be there for her.”
Michelle turned around and found that the camera was still rolling. She said anxiously, “Oh, my God, did you shoot everything just now? You have to cut off the last part. I don’t want Nini to worry. You must edit it out, okay?”
The video ended there, but they did not cut out the last part like Michelle said. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with the video. On the contrary, it was just Nina’s best friend wishing her well on her wedding.
Only Nina knew that it was a threat. The man who appeared in the video was Richard.
If Nina did not return to North Yard, then Michelle would be taken back from Spring City, and she would lose the chance to participate in the training that was so important to her. Without that training, it would be even more difficult for her to advance in her chosen profession.
“John, you shameless bastard! You dare play a trick on me again! I won’t let you off easily when I get back!” Nina was so angry that she almost punched the nearest wall. With clenched teeth, she logged into WeChat and dialed John’s number.
John’s phone started buzzing.
It was Nina calling through WeChat. John just stared at his phone with a smile tugging on the corner of his lips.

“She’s calling me.” John finally felt a little relaxed. He leaned back on his chair and took the phone with his fair fingers. He did not answer the call. He just watched the screen as if Nina would suddenly pop out of it.
She never really knew how to behave unless he taught her a lesson.
John did not answer the first voice call. Nina was so angry that she almost crushed her phone with her bare hand. She knew that he ignored her call on purpose. She called a second time, but he still did not answer.
Nina took a deep breath and called a third time.
This time, he finally answered.
As soon as John pressed his phone against his ear, Nina started roaring furiously, “You threaten me again and I’ll divorce you as soon as I return! I don’t care anymore what you pull on me afterward, you hear me?”
She was so angry that her usual calmness was gone completely.
However, John did not comfort her. He answered in a lazy and low voice, “Either you come back, or Michelle comes back. You choose.”
“She calls you Uncle John every time she sees you, John. Why would you treat her like this?” Nina now sounded aggrieved.
But John did not care. “I didn’t ask her to call me like that.”
Nina hissed. “You will ruin her career.” “Well, it’s not my career.” John had always been cold and ruthless. He did not care about anyone or anything that had nothing to do with him.
All he cared about was his ungrateful little girl.
“I tell you for the last time. Either you come back, or she comes back.” John lost his patience and bellowed.
Nina’s knuckles turned white as she gripped her phone with more force than necessary. If John were in front of her, she would definitely beat him until he could no longer stand or speak.
She took a deep breath, trying to restrain her fury. After a while, she gritted her teeth and decided to compromise. “You have to come pick me up.”
“You ran away by yourself. You come home by yourself.” John’s voice was cold. He was now the kind of angry that should not be challenged.
At the thought of Michelle, Nina clenched her fist. Her shoulders slowly drooped like deflating balloons. She could only admit, “My feet are injured.” With concern in his eyes, John stood up and left his office. On his way out, he spat out four words. “Text me the address.”
The next second, he hung up the phone and waited for Nina to send him the address.
After sending John the address, Nina called Noah and told him that she was coming back to North Yard. Noah just said “Okay” and hung up.
Half an hour later, Nina heard the apartment door open.
Only Noah who was the owner of the apartment could open the door.
“Noah? Is that you?” Nina stuck her head out of her bedroom door and listened carefully to the footsteps.
“I’m home.” It was Noah’s hoarse voice. But upon listening more carefully, Nina heard two completely different kinds of footsteps.
Noah walked steadily and lightly. The other footfalls were not only heavy but also slow and deliberate, like those of someone with a bad intention.
“Are you with someone?” Nina had always been sensitive. As Noah’s career was always accompanied by danger, she decided to be vigilant. Slowly and carefully, she shut her bedroom door and waited behind it.
This time, Noah stopped instead of replying. The heavy footsteps started approaching her bedroom. Nina felt the small hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.
As the footsteps neared, Nina stepped aside and prepared herself to kick whoever came bursting through her door.
