“You see you are making that face that everyone makes again,” Della remarked. “Like I said, it really wasn't a big deal. Many of us ladies on the team had kept the secrets from our partners for much longer than 10 years. We believe in freedom and some affairs shouldn't be made known to citizens or else they wouldn't cope with it.”“That was exactly what happened with Mr. Billing. He somehow found out about it through Rose. At first, he couldn't muster up the courage to tell me that he knew who I really was but I noticed that he was really scared whenever I tried to talk to him.”“I was always traveling because of the lie I created even while we were dating that I worked in an Automobile company abroad. He knew how important my job was - or the job I made him believe rather so even without making it clear, he knew that it was off limits for him to even try to convince me to work with him.”Alan’s mind was swirling with intrigue as he couldn't stop wondering how incredibly odd it was to
“I am no longer in the military now,” Della responded. “But that is not to say that I can't return after some time. If there is something that I have learned it is to never say never.”“I have been in the shadows watching Rose and Margaret and they have a solid communication with me or at least Rose did have while she was alive. That is how I know many things about you.”“But how could you possibly know about this shy deck? Does Rose know about this too? I can't remember telling that to her,” Alan said.Della responded with a big smile on her face. “You have no idea, do you? Rose knew certain things about you that you didn't think that she knew. Why do you think she was able to put up with you even when you were an ordinary errand boy working for Mr. Billing.”Della’s words were like a bolt of lightning to Alan because they shattered his preconceptions. Could it be that Rose was able to put up with him when she was poor because she had the information that the rest didn't have? No won
“You have started with that look again, Alan,” Della spoke, cutting through the silence. “I told you already that I knew everything about my daughter - we had a close relationship even though we were far away from each other. I knew every single thing that happened to her. Even some of them that she may not have told you.”Alan lowered his eyes and then spoke when he was a little more relieved. “I had a dream recently about Brody. Even before that dream, my heart had been so troubled about Brody and the fact that he was in danger being with Mr. Lawrence but the dream was like the ultimate confirmation that I needed that I needed to act quickly.”“That’s why I came here to think and reflect. I need to come up with a very good plan to protect Brody especially because of the secret he knows.”“Oh, yes!” Alan jolted with adrenaline as if he recalled something. “You can tell me the secret since you knew almost everything that Rose knew. Rose had a big secret about Mr. Lawrence that threate
Robert and Droppel’s eyes were wide with a terror of dread and their legs shook with a horrified shake of fear. They knew that the agent knew who made the statement and they feared what he might do to Laimer.The earlier statement that he made about him being trained to kill was what was playing in their minds. Laimer didn't have any words to respond to the agent as he raised his head to the agent, his face tinged with terror.“Come on, talk to me. Weren't you the one who said the cuff was too tight and you want it removed because you need to ease yourself?”Laimer’s terror was so overwhelming that he could only offer a mute nod in response. His face was dripping with sweat even the simplest physical gesture he made was a manifestation of his terror.“Oh, very good. You could have mentioned that earlier,” the agent spoke, his voice contorted with a sarcastic twinkle of falsehood. “We wouldn't want you to piss on yourself and especially not on the truck.”The agent then brought out a
He lay motionless on the ground in a heap as blood flowed out of his body and stained the ground on which he fell.Robert and Droppel who were still cuffed inside the truck watched as everything went down. Their terror was a paralyzing force rendering them immobile as the horror of the scene played over their heads again and again.Their terror was a horrifying realization as they finally came to terms with the fact that there was no one coming to save them. They were doomed to die sooner or later and there was nothing anyone could do about it.Oh! Laimer, Not today, Laimer. You could have stayed a little longer with us. You shouldn't have been gone so soon, Robert and Droppel reasoned.The agent who had put a bullet in Laimer’s upper body had his face set as a stony mask, his expression devoid of any emotion or remorse as he walked back into the truck and reunited with the other agent who was in the truck and also watching everything happen.There was a very loud silence inside the t
“Perhaps you have a suitable place where you would work if peradventure you no longer worked here. Maybe that’s why you are not so concerned right?”A sudden defiance arose gradually within the female warehouse worker and an instinctive impulse was going to be activated but her male colleague held her hands back as a sign that she should be calm and not confront the men just yet. Her high spirits were tamped down by the warning touch of her colleague.“What many of you don't know is that some of you will also be brought in for questioning after we find out some anomalies in your methods of operation. Some of you will be brought to face a panel and it will be so funny how you won’t even have a single word to defend yourselves.”“You can go and do your research and find out for yourself if there are other organizations that are under panel because of the very same issues that we have found with you.”Dwight locked his gaze on the female warehouse worker before he left her.The moment Dw
***Inside the inventory, Uqaman and Zonam had finished blocking the glass door with the carton boxes and all of a sudden they brought out little boxes from the uniforms they wore. Little did they know that they were being watched.While the warehouse workers and forklift operators were leaving the inventory, two ladies - Tierra and Quora remained in the inventory for a while because they wanted to make sure that they sealed certain products before they left.They had been very insistent on finishing off with their work as soon as the hour was over but the distraction from the information that government inspectors had come made them a little frustrated.Tierra and Quora decided that they were not going to leave the inventory until they had finished sealing the boxes that they wanted to seal. After all it was going to take a little over 5 minutes for them to finish sealing the remaining cartons, they thought. That was about the same time that it would take everyone to exit the invent
Quorra was so terrified that tears were falling from her eyes as she lamented. She wished that the earth would just open up and swallow her up. That would be much better than getting burnt to death in the fire that the dark agents were about to light up.She didn't want to die - Not yet, she thought. Why didn't she just leave the inventory when the others were leaving? Why didn't she just leave those useless boxes that were left unsealed? Perhaps the agents only wanted to burn the inventory and not kill anyone. At least, even if they burnt the inventory and she was outside, she would be alive to see another day.Tierra was equally frozen, her body trembling uncontrollably and her face a mask of horror as she heard the chanting and hooting of the dark agents.But if their problem was with Alan, why didn't they go to him directly instead of having to destroy innocent people? If money was what they wanted, they could have negotiated with Alan and he would give them any amount they wishe
