GOOD BYE DEAR FRIEND“ As I was saying before, I was interrupted…” said Aiden, continuing his speech.“... I just wanted you to have a feel of how it is when your father is on a sick bed and you can't do anything to save him. Like I was saying, I am here for nothing but my money.Six years ago, the money that was estimated for The Ring by the pawn shop owner you sold to was forty thousand dollarsAs we speak, the same ring is worth about a million dollars.I am taking a hundred per cent interest rate for a year for that ring for the period of the six years, and that sums up to seven million dollars.I need you to give me that money now and we are done here.” Aiden said and smiled at him.George’s eyes widened in shock as he heard the amount of money Aiden was requesting for.Alfred could believe his own ears.That money Aiden was requesting for was surely a huge money and he knew that if George gave in, he was sure going to be broke and it would take him at least a year
BOTH HAVE PLANS OF ADVANTAGEGeorge tried to free himself quickly and follow the men.He used his free hand to untie himself until he was completely free. He untied his legs and stood up from the chairHe looked at Alfred, who was tied on the ground and thought of releasing him, but his ego would not let him.Alfred sat fidgeting on the floor and looked at him with some eye of disdain and disgust. He himself was angry with George for trying to invite him there and kill him in the first place.George looked around to see if he could find a weapon, but there was none in sight. It looked like Aiden and his men had taken all of the weapons away.He knew he had to take advantage of Alfred being tied down and give him his peace of mind; the reason why he had called his boys to seize him to the place in the first instance.Alfred was fidgeting with uneasiness as he looked at George, who was looking around for something. He did not know what George was going to do next; but he was sure it w
MY STYLE, MY PLAN“ I accept your terms. I'm in” Alfred replied without any hesitation.George set off to untying Alfred at once.Alfred smiled secretly when George started untying him.He was on the winning side, and he had a plan.He had a plan.George completely untied Alfred until all his body parts were free.One could see the marks on Alfred's body as the ropes left it.“ Ouch!!” Alfred screamed in pain when he was untied.He could feel the pains all over his body.George was bent down on him, trying to help him get up from the ground.Alfred looked at George in the face.With his knee, he kicked George as hard as he could in the nuts.“The excruciating pain made George scream loudly as he rolled over on the floor with his hands on his balls.He got away from Alfred and went on shouting in agony.Alfred stood up from the floor with all the strength.“ That was for making your boys tie me down like an animal.” Alfred said.He walked closer to George, pulling out a knife
BREAKING NEWS IINext MorningJack's MansionJack woke up from his deep sleep, following the sun rays that hit the room through the deep curtains.He stretched lazily and looked around.He was on the bed in his room, and Jane was asleep by him.He smiled and sat up on the bed, heaving a sigh.Not wanting to wake Jane up, he stood up and quietly dressed up for his gym.He walked out of the room quietly and closed the door slowly.He walked to the other side of the house where the gym was and began his daily workout.Jane was also awake after a short while.She sat up on the bed and looked around to see if you could find JackAfter looking around without seeing him, she concluded that Jack had gone out and had intentionally not woken her up.She heaved a sigh and stood up from the bed, going closer to the curtains.She parted the curtains, and that gave way for her to see the outside.The side of the room had glass windows and was covered with curtains. Jane parted the curtains and
I AM YOUR FATHERAlfred came to the living room the next morning in his robe.He had just woken up n from his sleep about five minutes ago.He came out to see if he could speak to his father before he left for work.His father had already gone to work before he woke up so he could not see him.Now he went to sit in the living room for some fresh air.Looking at his body, he found out that he still had the marks of the rope on his body, and they were very red. Thankfully, he was not feeling any pain courtesy of the painkillers that were given to him their previous night.He heaved a sigh and sank into a chair in the room, switching on the television to watch some news.The moment he switched the tv on, the very first thing that his eye could catch on the TV was a clip of the accident scene he had encountered yesterday and a whole headline talking about George and his father.He saw an image of an unconscious Mr. Daniel in the hospital room and another image of George, who w
WHAT DID HE MEAN?. “ So where is George's car you came to the city with?” Mr Enzo asked his son.“ I did not want him to know I was coming here, so I left it at a spot, three crossings from here,” Alfred replied.“ What exactly happened between the two of you that resulted in him throwing you out of the house?” Mr Enzo asked againHe seemed more interested in the details of the occurencesAlfred felt a bit uneasy answering the questions although he was in an interview, but he had no second option to resort to, so he kept answering them hesitantly. “ Tracy broke up with me for no reason.I went to George's house, but I found out that George was secretly dating Tracy, and he was about to make it public, and that was why he made Tracy break up with me.I saw that and tried to fight him, but he let his men beat me up and take me away from the house.He told me that he was no longer going to accept me in the house ever again” Alfred replied.Mr Enzo heaved a sigh and stood up from the se
I WAS NOT BORN A KILLER.I JUST WANT TO FULFIL HIS WISHJack's Mansion.Jack and Jane both sat in the living room with laptops on their laps.Jane was reviewing some documents Jack had sent her, and Jack was sending some messages to the staff of the company about the changes in the administration of the company. After a while of them both pressing the laptop, Jane put her laptop down and looked at Jack.“ Can I ask you something?” She asked.Jack stopped what he was doing and looked up at her.“ I am listening. Is there any problem?”Jane shook her head in the negative.“ Considering what we heard on the news, don't you think that all hands will point out to you?” Jane asked.“ What are you talking about?” Jack asked in a confused state“ I mean, with what happened to your cousin and his father, don't you think they might think you caused that to them?” Jane repeated her question.“ I don't really think so. Besides, those people have a lot more enemies than you can think of. Again,
A CHAOTIC ENCOUNTERIn the hospital.George sat on a chair, leaning against it, and his head bent towards the ceiling.The drips connected to his hands were slowly working, and he seemed to be a bit better now.The constant beeping of the heartbeat monitor kept him awake, and he was staring blankly into space.Within just twelve hours, his life had taken a massive turnaround.Twelve hours ago, he was in his house with his father, Tracy, and Alfred.But now here he was, with his hands bandaged and stuffed so he could not move it, and his father on a life support machine, battling for his life.He was just blank in his head, thinking about what had really happened to him.In the first instance, Aiden had caused his father's accident.He could feel a sense of anger against Aiden.But he knew it was not worth it.He had first accounted for the death of Aiden's father.And now here he was, in the same situation.Regret and guilt washed over his whole soul.He wished he had never in his li
