Errand Boy Son-in-law Becomes The Idol Of Many CHAPTER 160
He recalled that the moment was the best time for him to start hearing the waitress’ thoughts but there was nothing. He gritted his teeth in frustration. Why was it that it was as if the ability chose when it wanted to come? Why wouldn't it come any time he was in a problem? He wished that he knew what to do to make the ability or whatever it was to come at the time he wanted. The moment he was experiencing was the best time for him to read the waitress’ thoughts. He was sure that she would definitely think about where she kept the antidote and that would be very valuable information for him to extract.Della, meanwhile, was outside the exclusive room around the table where she and Alan were having their dinner.Her forehead creased with a curious frown as she looked around, her eyes searching the room for answers. Where had they taken Alan to? Was it poison that made him choke like that? Her face was a picture of perplexed confusion as she sought to make sense of what was happenin

Alan still had his breath hitched as he could barely put out a speech. He wished that he could at least speak up for himself but he couldn't. It must have been a terrible kind of poison that the waitress used, he thought.He wondered how long he truly had to remain in that condition. He turned his gaze to Della as if to give her a gesture of advice to take things easy on the waitress. The situation was very delicate but he knew that caution had to be taken.“Can you get my brother back from a coma? That’s all I want. Can you someone heal his pain and get him back to me in perfect health,” The waitress spoke with uncertain confidence, her voice trembling slightly as she tried to assert herself despite her fears.Della didn’t understand the whole picture but she knew that the waitress must have had a reason to think that Alan was responsible for the coma condition of her brother. She didn't need to enquire further because the waitress kept her eyes gazing intently, waiting for a sign o

Alan, whose face was turning red with the effort of the breathing had his throat relax with a sudden relief, the antidote coursing through his veins to counteract the poison.His face went pale as the pain eased and air started flowing through his lungs gradually and he drew a deep, shuddering breath.He released a shaky sigh, his chest heaving with the effort of breathing as the antidote restored his health.“Come on, it is time to prepare for Rose Billing’s burial and memorial,” Della reminded Alan immediately after he got back to his health.It was as if it was back to business immediately as they ignored the waitress to her misery.Alan, though knew that there had to be something going on among his seven miners for something as important as the coma of one of them to happen and him not being informed about it.He gritted his teeth in anger because the ground rules were that information about the mining should be kept from their family members but not from him. It appeared that the

He turned towards his Dad, Dexter Greyson who had noticed the anger that Alan was feeling but kept his face glued to the podium as if to avoid distraction.Alan whispered. “Dad, can you see this? Can you see what is going on? What even is the name of the MC? Isn't that Gilead or whatever they call him? How would he introduce Lawrence as Rose’s wife?”Dexter Greyson’s face was a mask of calmness as he placed a touch on Alan’s knee before leaning closer and whispering. “I understand what you are saying but remain calm for a while. Just watch and play along okay? Probably there was an error or something.”Alan whispered back angrily, his teeth bared. “What sort of mistake was that? In such an event where highly placed guests attend - is that where such a mistake is supposed to happen? This is absolute misrepresentation?”“Lawrence was never married to Rose because their papers were not approved at the registry. Even before she died, I discussed this with Rose and she expressed so much gr

He wasn't even speaking from his brain - he had to read from a note. That meant that for all he cared, whatever he was saying could have been written by a talented poet so that he could move the crowd and make them think that he was genuinely sorry about her death. He was the murderer of the deceased for heaven’s sake, why was no one seeing that?If he truly had so many beautiful things to say about Rose, why wouldn't he close up the note he had and speak from his brain? He was reading from a note and yet the guests were foolish enough to think that he was genuine.“—so you know, one of the beautiful memories that we had just clicked on my brain.”“We were on our honeymoon and the moon showed up. We stared at the moon for almost an hour while we laughed and joked with each other on the tropical beach.”“I looked at her and said to her - do you know that the moon is saddest when it is in its full shape? She looked at me, her face was very curious and she asked why it was so.”“I told h

Was he using Rose’s memorial to raise an impression among the people that it was some group of people who killed her when he very well knew that he put a bullet in her head? Was he trying to remove the suspicion from himself? That was even if there was a suspicion on him. He killed Rose right inside his own hotel suite and everyone who saw it were his closest employees. He would have made them swear an oath not to mention it to anyone and they wouldn't even dare to disclose such information.Alan’s contempt for Mr. Lawrence seethed beneath the surface, his face a mask of coldness as he listened in a devouring silence. His emotions were like a tightly coiled spring that could snap at any moment.Who exactly was he trying to lay the blame on them? Is that how he wanted to swindle the whole crowd?“We are all here crying today and with every tear that falls from our faces, we are soaked in more sadness but let us not remember that some people or perhaps someone was responsible for every

The others were fooled by Mr. Lawrence’s gimmicks but of course, she knew much more than that. She hadn’t shed a tear in a very long time and even when she knew about Rose’s death, she didn't burst into tears.But hearing the whole lies and misconceptions that Mr. Lawrence was saying about Rose - that was definitely over the boundaries. If her eyes could command fire, she could have burnt him down right there on the podium without thinking twice.There were other ways that she could have caused some trouble but she did not create any commotion yet because she noticed that Mr. Lawrence had put certain personnel structures in place even before the date the memorial began. It was always going to be difficult to beat down those structures.But how was she going to handle the situation? She decided not to make the situation too obvious. If she followed after Alan and the other man who she assumed to be his, there would be more eyes on them and then that wouldn't look so good.She was going

“Can you see what I have been trying to explain to you? How could it be Lawrence who would supervise the order of service?”The steward, who still didn't understand what exactly was going on said. “Sir, I believe that it is because Mr. Lawrence was the closest person to Rose. He was her husband and that was why he took the responsibility of—”The statement made Alan even burst into a growl of rage. “Incredible! How is it that the whole world has the wrong idea about this man.”The steward’s eyes darted with a frantic flicker of fear as he became more confused about what Alan was talking about.At that moment, Della came out of the hall to meet the commotion that was going on.“Hey, hey, Alan, I understand what is going on but we can prepare for this in another way,” Della spoke. “How else are we going to make sure that this insult doesn't continue? How else can we stop this?” Alan spoke, his voice tinged with frustration. “I don't understand how the same person who murdered—”Just a

He was in a hurry to get things done quickly because he knew that it was going to be only a matter of time before the guards would discover that the public service system had been hacked.“When you get on the other side of the purple fence, just hang in there until we come to get you okay?”Jackson’s hands were large and measured, his touch gentle as he took Brody’s hands into his own.“Come on, I will show you the way and then you will complete the move,” Jackson’s voice was soft, his voice sincere as he was careful not to scare the boy with too much haste even though he was in a hurry and rightfully so.They crept until they got to the entrance which was just a few meters away from where they were. Jackson’s eyes were alert as he watched to see that there was no guard close to them that would impede their move.They hid behind the cars, creeping through the shadows with their eyes narrowed with a tense intent to get as far away from view as possible.Jackson then reached a point whe

“Come on, let’s go. We can't just sit here and do nothing after all. We have to do something.”With a grim determination, the guards all filed out of the lobby one after the other, their footsteps resounding through the empty hallways.The tension was palpable in the air as their weapons glinted in the harsh fluorescent light.Their bodies were taut with adrenaline as they headed towards their destination.Alan’s face glimmered with a relieved twinkle of gratitude the moment he saw that the guards had all gone.He then whispered to Jackson. “Hey, Jackson. Call Fred now and tell him to his way to the purple fence area. That’s the easiest route out of here. Tell him to get there as quickly as possible. That’s where Brody would have to go meet him.”Brody was confused, his face darting left and right as he was trying to understand what Alan was saying.Where was he saying that he was going to go? Since when did the plan become that he was going to go somewhere?Alan crouched down, his fa

“No one, I believe. You see what I am saying. What if they already got past this place and they are already heading outside.”“Think about it, I don’t think they would want to escape through the outside. Look at the way that they came in. We didn’t even know. None of us knew until they got to the top floor and killed two guards.”“It’s obvious they are trained so we have to think along the line of the fact that they are more than prepared for this.”“They probably outlined every step of the way before they came.”“Not probably, man. They did, it’s quite obvious.”“I guess it’s a draw right now. Mr. Lawrence already has one of them while they have gotten Brody.”“We must get back Brody, man. That’s the instruction. Mr. Lawrence has ordered a closure of all entry points right now and it is already in process. Everything must be on lockdown until Brody is found.”“We can’t afford to fool around.”“What if they are holed up in one of the offices? We should search each room systematically.

Mr. Lawrence then moved his eyes closer to Della’s face to get a clearer view of what was going on.“Wait, what? You look familiar,” Mr. Lawrence’s eyes narrowed, his gaze piercing into Della with the intensity of a predator sizing up its prey.His expression was hardened as a cruel smile spread across his face.“You look awfully and strangely familiar I must say,” Mr. Lawrence remarked again.He wasn’t sure of whether to keep up with his suspicion or to ignore it. He was sure that there was something about her that was too strange to ignore.It dawned on him that the person that she traced her face to was actually that of Rose Billing, the same woman that he murdered.He paused once more and spoke. “I know who you are, don’t I?”Della’s lips curled very slightly by the side as if she was trying to give Mr. Lawrence the clue that he needed.And Mr. Lawrence picked up the clue. He was shocked by the resemblance that Della had with Rose and even though he tried to ignore it as nothing b

“You are Brody, aren’t you?” Alan asked.The boy nodded in affirmation. Jackson’s grip on Brody’s hands loosened and Brody’s shoulders were relaxed gradually even though he knew subconsciously that there were most likely going to be some problems lying ahead.“I know you,” Brody spoke to Alan. “I saw you the other day when Mr. Lawrence killed Rose. You are Rose’s husband right?”Alan paused as if he was in a deep emotional thought before he then nodded.“Yes, I was.”It was a moment of reflection for both Alan and Brody as they both seemed to have missed Rose.Brody didn’t get to spend much time with Rose but it was obvious that the little time that he had spent with her was more than enough for him to miss her for a lifetime possibly.“And Della, the lady who texted on the phone. Are you her partner? Do you work with her? Where is she?” Brody asked.He was in a hurry to receive answers to his questions because he was still a little bit scared.“She is going to be with us soon, Brody

The air seemed to thicken with tension, the silence broken only by the faint click of gun safeties being engaged.Alan then whispered into his radio, hoping that he was going to connect with Della. “Della, are you there? We are about to open fire on the guards who want to lock Brody in the basement. We are going to need backup, over.”That was all Alan needed to say and he believed that he had said enough already.They moved a few more steps with deadly precision, their footsteps soft and stealthy as they crept closer to the guards. They saw as the guards were shoving and dragging Brody and this time, they were going to lock him into the basement.They were no longer interrogating him about the phone because there were bigger issues to deal with.But Alan and Jackson thought that it was time to raise a response.The guards burst the basement door open and were prepared to shove Brody into a dark room but there was a sudden startling noise of gunfire.Pow! Pow!Boom!The hail of bulle

Alan was just a few feet away hiding behind one of the pillars. The moment she saw the harsh slap that was performed against the boy, he gritted his teeth in frustration as he became provoked to cause a disruption.Why would they treat such a young boy like that? He had to hold and keep himself in check so that they would stay according to plan.But considering the way he was feeling, he wished that he could just start a gunfire right away. He began to rethink whether it was best to engage the guards with gunfire right away or if they should wait a while until Brody got locked in the basement and they would try to open it up.Just as he was still having a deliberation in his mind, the guards continued with their harsh treatment toward the boy.“Yeah, right, we are not stupid,” Guard two spoke. “Look at the faces of all of us standing here.”Brody’s face was still facing the ground as he was dealing with the harsh effect of the assault but he felt a hand shove his head back up so that

Alan and Jackson froze in place, his breath caught in his throat as he clung himself to the wall. His heart pounded in his chest as he heard the guards’ footsteps growing closer.Time seemed to be very slow as the guards drew nearer, their footsteps echoing off the walls of the hallway but Alan gripped his weapon tightly just in case the situation was going to demand it.But as they got closer, two other guards joined them. They now seemed to be five and they were discussing.Alan and Jackson were picking up on their conversations.“The boss said to keep him in the basement.”“There are many ways that the boss can get the boy on his side. After all, he is his son. I don’t see why there should be an issue between them.”“The boy is a cool guy to me.”“This isn’t about whether he is a cool guy or not. We should listen to what the boss says.”“Come on, this is not to say that I wouldn’t listen to what he says. I am only telling you as a colleague that there is no need for being so harsh

Fred was ready to go for it all. “If you need our main ID badge, my colleague can go them now. She will get mine too but I was hoping you would already know the company we are coming from. We already have a contract here.”The guard who was talking balderdash earlier scurried into the conversation. “But I haven’t seen you guys before. Especially the bright-skinned darling we have here. I would have known if I had seen her before.”Fred responded. “Well, we are not always the same and I am sure you already know that. Today, it is our shift to come to complete the repairs and as we said, we are actually running out of time.”“My colleague can quickly go and get the ID badges if that is what is delaying us from entry.”Fred was speaking with the hope that the guard was going to shrug off the situation and ask Della not to worry.But he needed to show that he wasn’t hiding something and the only way that he could do that effectively was to pretend as if everything was going fine and as ex
