"No thanks, I need a cold beer."

 "Sorry sir, I can't help you there, my husband don't drink alcohol," she was saying, but then the doorbell ring, "Excuse me, let me get that."

She saw him stand up and follow her, when she opened the door she saw Matt, "Yes? Can I help you?"

"I was worried about your husband, he didn't report to work today."

"What? How is that possible? He took his bag and left for work," she said, then turned to the stranger and said, "Look sir, I need you to return another time, whatever you need to see him about must wait. I need to check at the hospital and make a report."

"Madam, why concern yourself, if something had happened to him the police would have informed you already, seeing he is also a police."

She turned to him and ask, "Sir, do you know my husband?"

"I know your whole family, now kindly get him here, we have some business I need to discuss immediately."
