“Oh, no. I am not letting you go anywhere,” Mr. Lawrence snarled. “You are a spoilt little boy and you will be shown some lessons.”“You think you now know stuff, don't you? You think you are now a big boy and you can't stay in your place anymore.”But soon, Mr. Lawrence’s ears pricked up, the sound of a ringing phone cutting through the tense silence of the room.The sound was very brief and stopped after about two or three seconds but it was already enough to get Mr. Lawrence’s attention.“What’s that sound?” Mr. Lawrence spoke softly but his voice was laced with a threat. Brody’s heart sank into his stomach the moment he realized that Mr. Lawrence had heard the ringtone.No! What a terrible situation, he thought. But didn't he put the phone on silent mode? Didn't he ensure that it couldn't make a sound? What then was the sound again?Now it was a little too late because Mr. Lawrence had already heard everything.He was in trouble.“I am talking to you, boy. What’s that sound?” Mr
Brody’s heart pounded as he fumbled with the phone, his fingers trembling with nervous energy.The phone’s screen dimmed and the once vibrant display faded into a dull, lifeless gray.Brody’s face was growing pale as he realized that the phone was getting bad.No! No! That can't be.Brody muttered under his breath as if pleading with the phone to come alive.He saw the missed call that happened when Mr. Lawrence was in the room and realized that it was Della.Della had better come to save him immediately because time was no longer on their side anymore. Things were becoming really intense.He tried all possible tricks that he had learned on Y****be social network to fix the phone but there was barely any improvement.The only relief was that he could still type even though it wasn't as effective as before.He quickly went to his chat with Della and saw that she had already sent her a message.[Hey Brody are you still there?]Brody quickly responded, battling with the tough situation w
When all these are over. I promise to get you a new phone. I know it’s what Rose would have wanted][Just hang in there][Alright] Brody responded.[So, I was going to ask a question.][Do you have gardeners come over to the hotel suite or satellite technicians?][Which of them visits the hotel suite more often?]Brody responded. [That would be satellite technicians. We already have in-house gardeners who take care of the grasses and surroundings.][They don't come in from outside as often as satellite technicians][Alright, thank you. You are so smart] Della remarked.[Oh, but before I forget. The technicians only come on Wednesdays and Fridays][Sometimes on weekends too]Della’s heart skipped a bit as she immediately started calculating in her mind what day it was.Luckily it was Friday - perfect timing to act as satellite technicians to infiltrate Mr. Lawrence's apartment. Della asked for details on how they usually dressed and Brody told her everything she needed to know.Brody
The guy who noticed something was persistent and determined to get his colleagues to heed his suspicion.“You are actually neglecting your duty, aren't you?” He spoke. “That doesn't seem like a good idea allowing only me to go check it out. We are a team for a reason and if we were assigned to this post, we have to make every positive effort out of it.”The uninterested guards paused in their conversation, exchanging a glance that suggested that they were deliberating whether to finally make a move and check if Baldy was correct.“Alright, let’s go check but I doubt if you saw anything,” The guard spoke. “You are just a pain in the a** sometimes but we will cope with you okay?”The three guards then moved together to the corridor to check if the guard’s suspicion was right.Meanwhile, Alan and Jackson had noticed that a conversation was going on among themselves.“Shh, I think they saw us,” Jackson whispered to Alan. “Sh!t, I made a mistake, man.”Alan, without stressing the matter fu
With two brutal gunshots, the guards fell to the ground immediately, their bodies still and lifeless as their skin became pale and cold.Alan had shot one of the guards while Jackson took care of the other.The way had now been paved for them to enter into Brody’s room.Alan and Jackson moved quickly and forcefully, bursting through the door with a deafening crash that echoed through the room.Even though they would have preferred that no sound was made, it was the final step and they had no choice but to break in especially after they had gone through a lot to take out the guards situated just outside the room.Their eyes were moving in search of Brody but they couldn’t believe what they were witnessing.Brody was nowhere in the room.The gunmen had their faces registered in shock and disbelief, their frustration and anger palpable as they realized that their plan had been thwarted.They exchanged confused glances at each other just as they tried to cover the entrance just in case so
“What’s the matter, sweetheart? Don’t you like it when a man gives you a little attention? Why don’t you lighten up and have a little fun? After all, you don’t have a husband. Don’t be so uptight, darling.”“You are quite the kind of lady I like. Don’t mind your colleague saying that you are old and all that trash but I tell you the truth, you are the kind of lady I want. Just my kind of lady.”Della had some very harsh words that she was going to say but because she didn’t want the plan disrupted, she had to stick to being on track with her words.She had already used her hands to signal Fred not to lash out at the guard. She didn’t want the plan to be disrupted just because of an untrained guard.“Hey, look, man. I am just here to do my job and not to be harassed by some man.”“Am I some man?” the guard teased. “I don’t want to be just some man to someone like you. I want to be more than just some man. I want to be more acquainted with you, honey. And isn’t it a little disrespectful
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
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
