{What?! He is unconscious right now. He is out of breath. What if he dies?}

{Don’t worry. He won't die. I have a plan - I just need you to trust me okay?}

{But I am scared. They are still hitting the elevator walls}

{Just keep the contact. I have a plan okay?}

{Alright}

{One more thing, Rose}

{What?}

{How many people saw you when you got into the elevator?}

{Just one - a lady. She is one of the hotel staff}

{And you are sure about that? Only one lady?}

{Yes, I am sure}

Rose shuddered, her body quaking with terror as she gasped for breath. She could feel her chest tightening and she had to open her mouth to catch some air. She pulled off the dress that she was wearing and was left with only her underwear which was enough to conceal her features moderately. At least Brody was unconscious so she had the space to herself.

But her heart couldn't bear the thought that Brody was perhaps going to die. She took him with the idea that she was going to save him and not for him to die in her hand

    “Just stop the hitting,” he commanded his agents to stop hitting the elevator wall. “Brody is with Alan anyway - there is no point anymore. They probably are not inside the elevator cabin and we have been wasting our time all these while.”It soon clicked in Mr. Lawrence’s mind that Alan didn't give any information about Rose. Was he intentionally trying to protect Rose by doing that? Could it be that she was still in the elevator cabin?“And Rose? She is also there with you, isn't she?” Mr. Lawrence asked, his tone seeking a loophole in Alan’s answer.“Oh, come on. Rose is not here. If she were here, perhaps I would have also had her send you a picture or a video saying hi to you. I think we both know where Rose is though,” Alan smartly responded, shifting the pressure back on Mr. Lawrence. Alan could tell that Mr. Lawrence was trying to trick him with the question about Rose. His response would leave Mr. Lawrence doubting whether the lady who saw Brody really saw clearly, he though

    One of Alan’s agents, Shlupp, who was with him in the vehicle noticed that Alan’s face was a desperate facade of desperation and pleading with an intensity of impatience.“Boss, what’s going on? You are going at a very high speed and you look upset.”Shlupp knew that rescuing Rose meant a lot to Alan. If not, he probably wouldn't have insisted that he drove himself when he didn't have to. But there was something about the level of desperation that he was exuding that seemed a little strange to Shlupp.Alan shrugged with a deadly wave of indifference, his expression dismissive with an air of apathy.He picked up his phone and this time he dialed Rose’s number. Perhaps the reason for the lack of response was because she was not online. The phone rang and as the seconds went by, it felt like Alan’s heart was breaking. The phone rang till its end and there was still no response at the other end of the phone.Even if Mr. Lawrence had already captured her, he would have picked up the phone

    “Ms. Lee, right now I don't trust whatever you think you saw. Brody is currently with Alan and every minute we spend not being sure of our plan means that my son would be in danger. Do you understand how ridiculous that is? My son! I can't let that happen.” Mr. Lawrence uttered, with his throat tight with a simmering grip of outrage.Ms. Lee’s eyes were silent but with a courageous flame of daring. She knew that she was sure of what she saw and that Alan was playing tricks to divert Mr. Lawrence’s attention. “Sir, I understand that you are in a hurry to save Brody but—”“In a hurry? Are you kidding me? Do you think I am in a hurry to save my son? What kind of a useless statement is that? It's been over 10 minutes now that I got on the phone with Alan and he showed me the photos of Brody being unconscious. And yet you think I am in a hurry and that I am doing too much?”Mr. Lawrence’s words were dripping with a simmering lava of wrath. “I am telling you today that if I didn't consider

    “A slave boy doesn't get to enter into Mr. Lawrence’s hotel suite with so much power, does he?” Alan responded, his aura matching up to the occasion. “I can tell that you are shitting in your pants so much right now, haha.”Mr. Lawrence’s face went pale with a deadly terror of intimidation but he wasn't just going to allow Alan to step over him. “You must care about Rose so much, don't you? Such a pity she left you when she saw the real you - not this mask of a wealthy man that you are trying to put on.”“And yet she is ready to risk her life get out of your grip, and even get stuck in an elevator cargo as long as it helps her escape from you,” Alan responded. “I am sure you have heard the report from the marriage registry. You don't deserve intelligent businesswomen like Rose. You are a piece of sh*t.”Alan disconnected the phone call quite abruptly as Mr. Lawrence was about to respond so that he could focus on what he came to do.He soon passed the gate and onto the reception office

    “Alright, alright. You can have your way,” Mr. Lawrence raised his hand into the air, yielding to Alan’s demands.Ms. Lee retreated with a deadly air of resignation as she flared her nostrils disappointedly.Alan heaved a sigh of relief as Mr. Lawrence’s response got to his ears.“Very good!” Alan said, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction. “I will have your pry bars and sledgehammers now.”Mr. Lawrence surrendered his pry bars and sledge hammers to Alan.Mr. Lawrence signaled that his people should pave the way for Alan to pass through.Alan’s agent, Shlupp picked up their sledgehammer, prybars, and saws, and together with Alan, they started hitting the elevator walls.This time, getting into the elevator cargo wasn't going to be as difficult as before because the barricade was already almost broken down by Mr. Lawrence.“Stay away from here,” Alan commanded Lawrence’s men when he noticed that they were stepping past the line and stretching their necks to see through the spaces that h

    Her eyes were focused like an eagle observing her prey as she watched Shlupp and waited for a moment of lack of concentration. The moment she found something little, with a burst of tension, she stormed forward nudging Shlupp on his shoulder and sending him almost falling on the ground before stomping into the elevator cargo.It all happened in the flash of a second as Mr. Lawrence darted his gaze back and forth to understand what had just happened.Alan who was sweating profusely soon saw Ms. Lee bumping into the spot where he was. His eyes widened with a deadly stretch of shock as he tried to recognize the face that was hovering above him.Ms. Lee’s voice soared with a piercing cry of alarm and shriek of warning. “Brody is here! Everyone get in here! Brody is here!”The crowd outside buzzed with a silent hum of speculation and with a burst of tension, they all moved toward the broken elevator walls. POW! Shlupp received the first punch followed by the second, the third, and the fo

    ***Back at the spot where Alan was, it was a heap of humiliation for him.Alan’s body slumped in an agonizing slouch of helplessness as his lips were cracked and dry with an imprint of suffering. His eyes were glazed with a stare of dread as his eyeballs were all red with blood.He was tied to a chair and the ropes bit into his skin with a harsh dig of restraint and a tug of captivity. The chair creaked with a harsh groan of resistance as his limbs were bound.Shlupp also had his body tied to a chair as his skin was also an abstract pain and a brutal masterpiece of suffering. His eyes were hidden behind a brutal shadow of swelling. Mr. Lawrence’s lips curled in disdain and mockery as he raised Alan’s bruised face to meet his own. “How funny of you to think that you could come in here and leave without meeting your doom. How funny!”Alan turned his face away from Mr. Lawrence as he was talking, drops of blood spilling off his mouth. The humiliation and shame were too much for him to

    Mr. Lawrence’s eyes bulged wide open in anticipation as his heart skipped a bit faster. “What is the news?”Alan also turned his gaze toward the doctor, his limbs twitching in a desperate jerk of a struggle as his skin glistened with sweat. He was curious to know what would have happened with Rose.Even though he was tied to a chair and badly beaten up, the only thing that gave him some hope was the fact that there was a chance for her to regain consciousness. Without the chance of Rose gaining consciousness, there would be nothing left to fight for.“We have performed CPR on Brody and he has now gained consciousness,” The Doctor said.“Very good, that is good news. Well done, all of you. You have all done very well,” Mr. Lawrence remarked. “I think you all deserve a raise. I will see to it that every one of you gets a raise.”Alan’s face was a desperate mask of anxiety and his bruised eyes were filled with an intensity of impatience. When exactly was he going to ask about Rose? What

    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
