"Come with me," Newton beckoned to Grinch. Both men walked into the empty hall downstairs.Newton took a seat and Grinch took a seat next to Newton."I had Grinch work on this place before I got here. We can't just rely on the CCTV cameras installed in the facility. I had him install facial scanners at the entrance. The faces of everyone who has entered this hall are right here in my hands," Newton said. Newton opened the tablet in his hand.He typed in the password and played the footage of the events inside and outside the hall. "There's Willis!" Grinch pointed at the screen.Willis looked like he was being asked for directions by three men in black hoodies. "I saw those men sitting in the hall," Newton exclaimed."They were disguised," Grinch concluded.Newton panned the view of the footage outside the gate and saw one of the men in the black hoodie move behind Willis as Willis spoke to the other two men in hoodies standing in front of him.Suddenly, the man behind Willis took o
Newton took out Willis's phone to check it again. After turning it on, he discovered that it wasn't locked. Newton stared at the vivid "HELP" message on the screen until another message suddenly appeared.It was a map, with a red dot around the north side of Bayfield. Immediately, Newton got up to look for Grinch. He looked around the hall, but couldn't find him.After searching for a while, Newton decided it was time to go home.He walked out of the building with a slumped shoulder, Willis's phone in his hand.He was outside when he saw several women taking turns standing next to his car, taking pictures.Newton unlocked his car with his remote."He's so handsome!" exclaimed one woman. "Are you single? I'm ready to mingle," said another."Please take my number.""How long did it take you to get so filthy rich?" A young man asked.Newton said nothing to them and sulkily opened the front door and sat inside.A lady tapped excitedly on the right windshield, and Newton rolled down the
Grinch could see the uncanny resemblance between Newton and his father, Mr. Norton. Whatever Mr. Norton said he would do, he did. He never changed his mind, no matter how much he was persuaded.Newton said goodbye and went to the top floor to see Kira.He opened the door and found no one inside. He went to the far corner where the crossed swords lay on the wall.Newton took one of the crossed swords and practiced the stance Kira had taught him. He moved his feet accordingly and swung the sword in the air.He practiced changing from defensive maneuvers to attacking stances.Newton stretched his legs back and held the sword in front of his face with both hands when he felt a slight kick to his back leg.The kick came again and stopped when his back leg was properly positioned. An arm from behind him pushed his sword further away from his face. He could smell the exquisite scent of his stalker.He knew that it was Kira standing behind him. He decided to catch her with a surprise attack
It was 6 p.m. when Newton's phone rang..."Boss, I'm ready," Grinch's voice echoed from the other end of the line. "Meet me at the garage," Newton instructed.Newton walked around the luxury cars parked in the garage. "Which one did you choose?" Grinch called out.Newton turned to face Grinch. He had a black cap on his head and was wearing plain black jeans and a black short-sleeved top. Newton could see two guns tucked under his belt, covered by his black leather jacket."I haven't decided yet," Newton called out."We need something quick that will help us get away in a hurry," Grinch advised.Newton looked around at the luxury vehicles parked in the garage, but still couldn't decide."...Pick a vehicle, Grinch." Grinch tossed Newton's motorcycle keys without a second thought."We'll take the motorcycle," Grinch announced.Newton could not object to the suggestion. He grabbed the keys to his Kawasaki Ninja and pulled on his gear.He tucked his gold pistols under his belt and wore a
Newton glanced at the lone man sitting at the table. He exchanged some of his cards for other favorable cards in the deck. Newton slowly moved out from behind the pillar. He focused on his target. The man seemed to care only about replacing his worst cards with better ones. Grinch watched as Newton stealthily approached the target. Newton stood behind the man and gave Grinch a thumbs up. Grinch smiled at the carelessness of his target. Newton was right behind him, but he wasn't aware of the danger he was in.He was about to exchange more cards when Newton put his big hand over his mouth to stifle any sound he made. Newton picked him up and the Grinch came around with duct tape and a handcuff in his hand.His mouth was taped shut and his hands were cuffed behind his back.Newton and Grinch hid him behind a pillar.Newton spun the tactical knives in his hand as he stealthily moved up the stairs, with Grinch following behind.Newton paused at the top of the stairs.He saw Willis tied
"Who's not in class?" The teacher asked."Harris," they chorused after looking around."What's wrong with Harris?""Next week we're going on a field trip to see how cloth is made," the teacher announced."Where do you have in mind?" He asked his students."...Helsinki!"..."...Big Rolla!"..."Easy fit!" They suggested."Easy fit?" The teacher was surprised."I say we go with Big Rolla. The fees would be less," the teacher suggested."We want to see Easy Fit! I'll pay any amount to see how their luxury fabrics are made," Tonya exclaimed excitedly."Yes. We want to see Easy Fit!" The students chorused.The teacher had no choice but to agree. "Easy Fit it is.""...Someone should give the information to Harris. It's part of your CA," the teacher announced."What about my group project?" asked Jeremiah rudely. "What about it?" The teacher asked."You still haven't returned my full score," Jeremiah protested.The teacher, knowing who Jeremiah Lee was and who his father was, thought it wise
"Uh... Jeremiah, Piers, and Kirk. You three are coming," Nicolas explained.He was enjoying the spotlight his boat ride was putting him in."I only need five more people," Nicolas explained.Immediately, all the students rushed to Nicolas. He smugly picked out five of his favorites."Brokeboy and Robert, you're coming, but only to see it," Nicolas announced to Newton and his friend."Why can't I go on the yacht?" Robert asked."The fact that you are with a peasant like Newton makes you a peasant. It's more than you deserve anyway because you two made us fail the project," Nicolas said."Why don't you bring your limo around so we can all go at the same time," Nicolas suggested to Jeremiah. Jeremiah made a phone call and asked for his limo to be brought to him. "Why does the broke kid want to see a yacht?" Tonya started. Newton looked at Tonya from top to bottom. She looked thin and had no curves. Her eyes and lips were huge. Newton understood why she talked so much.He turned his eye
Newton stood on the dock watching Mr. Brady and his classmates having a good time on his yacht. Robert felt sick to his stomach as he watched Emily and the other girls giggling inaudibly on the yacht."Let's go, Newt," Robert said to Newton.Newton stared down at his friend..."Wait a little longer, Robert. "Wait and watch these guys have the time of their lives while we stand here in the sun?" Robert asked. "Looks like fun to me," Newton replied..."Excuse me, Robert," Newton said as he walked away.Newton called Mr. Boris, his manager who was in charge of all his companies."I want a new helmsman for my yacht!" Newton instructed."Which yacht?" Mr. Boris asked."The one at the Bayfield dock," Newton replied."Okay, I will get back to you shortly," Mr. Boris said. Newton ended the call and returned to Robert.Both men stood side by side watching Nicolas chase Emily around the boat, looking happy and excited.Jeremiah held a glass of champagne to his mouth. Tonya and Allison stood
