Rose felt a need to apologize because it would have been her fault if something were to happen and there was a crash.She stretched her neck out of the car and her voice was tinged with remorse. “I am sorry about that Sir.”She turned on the ignition of her vehicle in a bid to restart but as the engines were turned on, she looked into her side mirror and noticed that the same guy from the other vehicle was approaching her.What the hell? She thought. Had she not apologized already? Or did she hit his vehicle without knowing? Why can’t he just be on his way already? She was already getting late to Brody’s school and she knew there was going to be some trouble if Mr. Lawrence learned that Brody was not picked up from school on time.The man reached the wind frame. He looked quite tall, about 6’2 and he had a squared jaw and sleepy eyes. His dress was casual as he was on a T-shirt and Jeans.“Sir, I have already apologized. It was a mistake okay? I had a brief moment where I lost control

****7 weeks agoAlan was in the hospital bed with bruises all over his face. His breath was held with a deadly gasp of surprise at the divorce papers that he was to sign.How could Rose do that to him? Alan cursed Mr. Billing, Lesley, Margaret, and everyone responsible for his current state.He felt his heart was bleeding as he took the pen and signed the divorce papers. But Alan flinched when something crept into his mind.There was a lighter paperwork underneath the document that he was signing. He flinched slightly in a flicker of discovery. Perhaps he should turn to the next page to sign as well but on second thought he resisted the urge to turn the page.“That is the document, now you have all that you want,” Alan said, handing the divorce papers over to Rose. His hands were trembling because he hoped that Rose wouldn’t discover that there was a next page to be signed.But if she found out after she left, she would return with the same request so there was no difference that it

“Don’t worry about that Samuel. Let’s keep that sealed.”“Or is it because Alan now owns a consortium,” Samuel asked, his eyes twinkling with a flicker of playfulness. “I mean, which woman wouldn’t change her mind when so much money is involved.”Rose’s expression hardened with a deadly tightening of annoyance. “Sam, I think it’s high time we end this conversation. I appreciate that you find it kind enough to give me this information though.”“Alright, that is fine. I guess I will have to alight here then,” Samuel said.He alighted the vehicle and went off to his vehicle while Rose drove off. She couldn’t help but get excited that she was still married to Alan. At least, the horror show of living in Alan’s house would be no more. She would no longer have to listen to his gruesome instructions and be disrespected like a woman with no value.She couldn’t help but think about all the messages she received from the employees at Billing Corporation though.But most of all, the fact that

Rose took a deep breath in exhaustion. “Okay, if you say so. I am just really tired right now and I can’t wait to have some rest. I just hope it’s not so messy at the house like it usually is sometimes.”Her lips moved in a silent whisper of self-dialogue but the way she was moving her head to the side suggested to Brody that she might be talking to him too.Rose decided to return her focus to her worry about Mr. Billing. The questions started coming in thick and fast again - she was worried for her safety.She picked up her phone to call Mr. Billing again - perhaps this time the voices she heard the other time would be more willing to speak up and give more clues as to her father’s whereabouts.She saw missed calls from Margaret, Lesley, and her other siblings but she ignored them. She knew that they were also worried about the whereabouts of Mr. Billing but she wasn’t in the mood to speak with any of them. The number was going through again but this time no one picked up the call.

“What cruel things has he done?” Rose asked, her voice tinged with curiosity. “Did her hurt you? Talk to me, perhaps we can find a way to help you.”“No, no, no. I don’t need help. At least not right now. Perhaps you need help more than me.”In Rose’s mind, she couldn’t argue much against the fact that she needed help to be out of Mr. Lawrence’s claws. Having found out that she wasn’t legally married to him since she was still yoked with Alan was a big step but was he going to let her go that easily? He might come for Alan and his business as well.Brody continued, his voice tinged with seriousness. “I couldn’t help but cover my eyes in shame when he took me for a business event but I found out that it was only a show that was created to make mockery of other adults who were not so rich.”“What show are you talking about?” Rose asked. She could sense that perhaps she knew what he was talking about.“He told me that it was a Billing event and that—-you are a Billing right?” Brody asked

“I promise this stays between us,” Rose assured, her eyes meeting Brody’s gaze with a deadly gaze of empathy.“It’s about his ex-wife Dianna,” Brody stuttered, his face contorted with a deadly twist of unease.“Okay?”“He—-he killed Dianna,” Brody uttered, his whole face a deadly mask of horror.“What?!” Rose exclaimed, her breath coming in a ragged gasp of terror. “How do you know this?”“Shush, don’t act like that,” Brody said, looking around as if someone might be watching even though they were in a moving vehicle.Rose went back into composure as she took a grip of the steering of the vehicle. Brody continued. “You might have noticed that my dad has two main concubines who flexes on whenever he wants to have fun or when he gets drunk with wine.”“Yes, yes. Of course, I noticed,” Rose nodded her head in remembrance as she recalled the moment when she was disgraced by Mr. Lawrence in the presence of his hookers after an altercation between herself and the two nonentities.“Well, th

Rose could also tell that he must have been drunk judging from the way that his shirt collar was undone and his belt half fastened. He also wobbled along as he entered the room.Rose wondered what Mr. Lawrence was talking about. She had brought Brody back home this time so there should be no reason for unnecessary complaints.“Why did you bring Brody back home so late? Where did you go that you had to leave my son at school alone after closing hours.”Rose’s eyes darted back and forth with a flicker of confusion, her lips pressed tightly with a clamp of contemplation. What exactly was he talking about? She reasoned. “Or did you think that I didn’t see you come into my apartment with Brody? Tell me, where you took my son to.”Rose’s posture was a deadly stoop of amazement. How can a man be so blind to the truth? If only he knew what Brody knew about him and his evil acts - if only he knew that Brody knew that he was responsible for his ex-wife’s death, perhaps he would bow his head in

Mr. Lawrence moved closer to Rose, his eyes gleaming with danger. “You know what? I have heard enough of your useless talks. You are going to go to Doubas tomorrow and you are going to start work as our accountant's manager. I will be monitoring your progress from time to time.”Mr. Lawrence turned back to leave angrily with the satisfaction that he had made his wishes known but then stopped as if something had clicked into his brain.“Oh, and let this be the last time we discuss this. I need you prepared for work in a dress that I will have my stylist send to you. You see, I have ambitions, very serious ambitions and I can’t afford to have these kinds of controversies in my home ruin those ambitions.”“You don’t want to know what I will do if you dare bring up these useless issues again,” Mr. Lawrence warned.Rose’s expression hardened with a deadly tightening of annoyance as she heard those words. The fact that Mr. Lawrence wanted her to dress the exact way he wanted made her much m

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

CHAPTER 297
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
