Jamal paced around his office, sick with worry for Mari since he was yet to hear from her. She'd not picked up her phone when he called to warn her that she was in danger, and now he couldn't think or focus on anything else.
He had called Harry several times already to know if he'd heard from Mari's dad, but Harry wasn't taking his calls and Jamal knew that was probably because he was in a meeting.
Harry never took his phone with him to meetings.
Jamal glanced at his desk when his phone buzzed with a call, and he walked over quickly hoping it was Mari.
He frowned when he saw it was Emily, and received the call. "Hey, Em! Have you heard from Mari?" He asked before she could say a word.
"No. I haven't. But that's part of the reason I'm calling. I noticed that my previous messages to her other line have delivered. It seems she turned on the phone," Emily explained.
Jamal's brows pulled together. "Really?"
