THE LAST STEP TO FREEDOMJack called a number, and the call was answered on the first ring.“ Hello, sir,” the receiver said.“ Man, I'm in a bit of a fix here, and I need you to help me as soon as possible.” Jack said.“ I am listening, sir” the receiver said.“ With the plan we had today, I just received a call from Alves that George is requesting cash payment instead of transfer. So I called one of my men and asked him to give me fake dollar bills within the next one hour. However, I can not let Jane go with the man because of the risk involved in using the fake bills. George might see, and it's going to be a rather unfortunate situation over there, so I have to protect her and let her stay at home while I go by myself.But you know I can't go there unless I am in disguise, so I will need you to get me my backpack and also include a pistol just in case of any emergency. I will pick it up within the next hour because I am currently headed home to prepare myself.” Jackll said to

FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS GUARANTEEDGeorge’s apartment, Sergio’s point of view.Sergi followed the agents as they approached the entrance of the door to the mansion.From the dark glasses he was wearing, he used the corner of his eyes to scan the entire place as soon as he could.Sergio realized that the place was looking a bit unclean, and the number of security guards around had drastically reduced.As he continued scanning the area while walking, his eye caught something.Segio did not turn.

TIME TO FLEE OUTSergio got into his car after the meeting and heaved a sigh.He looked at George, who was standing by the car with a smile on his face, waving him goodbye.Then he took a quick glance at the house once again with a huge grin before leaving, driving out slowly, following the men out.He heaved a heavy sigh as he dropped out of the house.He cleared his throat and coughed once.

A MAN IN THOUGHTSMr, Enzo's MansionMr Enzo sat in an armchair in his living room with the TV onHe was staring at the TV but he was not watching it.He seemed lost in thoughts, and his mind was far away from where his body was.Mr Enzo had grown considerably lean from what he was from about a week ago.He was still thinking about what happened the previous week.Mr Enzo had taken two weeks off from work to rest and maybe mourn his late son.Mr Enzo had tried his best not to think about Alfred at all, but it all seemed impossible.
