"Is this all you can throw at me for twisting your plumpy lazy arm?"Romeo began sarcastically. "Come on, a member of the great Davidson family is sure more sophisticated as it regards, power, muscle and brutality."Flanagan shuddered, absolutely dumbfounded on what his next move was going to be."Oh it seems like someone looks confused. Anyway here is the door. I am going to count to ten and if you are still anywhere around here, I promise you, I am going to fracture both of your hands.""One…Two…Three."Without hesitation, Flanagan jolted out of the door without any form of hesitation.His bodyguards still in excruciating pain, crawled out of the room, and with all of them gone, Romeo bolted the door."We need to be fast lads, don't expect those guys to give up that easily. They would be coming for us in full force in no time."Romeo, with a determined look in his eyes, and his Chinese associates began their search. The air was tense as they began meticulously searching for any clue
The van hummed along the dimly lit streets, Li Wei focused on the road, while Romeo and Chen Hua sat in the back, reviewing the gathered evidence. The unease in the air was evidence a big contrast to the nondescript exterior of the vehicle.As the van turned a corner, Romeo's keen instincts kicked in. He caught a glimpse of two black Range Rover trucks trailing them in the side mirror. His expression tightened, realizing they were being pursued."Chen Hua, we've got company. Two Range Rovers on our tail," Romeo uttered in a low, urgent tone.Chen Hua glanced out the window, confirming Romeo's suspicion. "Trouble's catching up, my prince.""Flanagan!" Romeo whispered angrily to himself cocksure that the plumpy bastard had sent these henchmen.His mind raced, contemplating their options. "Li Wei, speed up. We need to lose those trucks, and fast."Li Wei nodded, gripping the wheel with determination. The van's engine roared to life as he accelerated, weaving through the streets with cal
"Joseph how could you?" Said Romeo who was struggling to make sense of the whole scenario. He was sweating profusely and coupled with that, he felt betrayed.Joseph began to laugh. "Ah Romeo, Romeo, what were you thinking when you decided to make those searches inside that hotel room, huh?""So you were part of the plan?""Part of what plan?""The plan to kill Charlie Stauman?""Well that would be a yes. You got any problem with that?"Romeo stared coldly at him for a while. "You bastard, how could you?" Romeo was furious."I am sorry my prince, but I work for the highest bidder." Joseph said calmly.Suddenly Romeo heard a ringing tone and a tough looking fellow approached Joseph. "You have a call sir."Joseph collected the phone. "Hello Flanagan.""Hello Joseph, what about those bastards?""They are with us, confined and quiet…they seem to be enjoying the place even." He then let out a sarcastic laughter."Good, good.""So what do you suggest we do with them now that they know a thi
Romeo opened his tightly shut eyes and to his surprise, nothing was wrong with him. He looked up at Joseph."Come on cousin, did you really believe that I would betray you?" Joseph asked as he moved to unfasten the cords that bounded Romeo.Romeo's emotions surged like a tempest, a whirlwind of relief and bewilderment. The cords binding him fell away, leaving him free, yet his mind remained entangled in a web of conflicting thoughts.Relief washed over him as he realized he wasn't facing imminent death. The weight that had pressed on his shoulders were lifted, and a rush of gratitude toward Joseph flooded his conflicted heart. "Cousin, you saved me?" he whispered, the words carrying both disbelief and appreciation.However, a storm of anger brewed within him as the realization dawned that Joseph had orchestrated this elaborate charade. For Romeo, the betrayal ran deeper than he could fathom. However standing toe to toe with Joseph, he gave him a dirty slap. "What the fuck did you th
"What kind of snake did you say we are going to take out?" Asked a young man who was about nineteen years of age. He wore navy blue overalls. "Baby pythons, four baby pythons." His senior a roughly bearded man with bushy eyebrows replied.The younger exterminator stared at his senior and began to laugh."Why do you laugh? What is funny?""You look like a clown on this costume my prince." "I know Ahmed. But I don't care about that. All I care about is preventing the assasination of Heinrich Schmidt.""I heard a lot about him…""I know, but at the moment, he is better off alive than dead."Both men continued their journey and soon, they entered the vast and rich compound of Mr Heinrich Schmidt."It is a beautiful place my prince.""Yeah I know." Romeo then tucked his hand in his pocket, took out his phone and dialled Joseph's number."Hello Joseph, we are in.""Good. Now all you have to do is do your work and await the assassin.""Hmmm, that is easy to say, but how do we identify this
Romeo began to brainstorm, thinking of how to answer the chief servant in a way that would discourage suspicion on his part (the chief servant)"Uh, we would have to fumigate some areas in the mansion and as such we…we…we you know need to know the specific time this Phillip Wagner is going to arrive and what places he is going to enter, so he would not be exposed to the fumes we would be emitting." He then let out an arkward smile.The chief servant didn't look impressed as he shook his head. "Let's go over to the next place."Romeo looked embarassed, but he quietly followed the chief servant alongside Ahmed.They were led to an area of the vast garden just around the courtyard.In the garden, the chief servant pointed towards a cluster of bushes, "This is where the smaller pythons like to hang out. Be careful; they can be quite agile.""That would not be a problem sir."As they approached the bushes, Ahmed spotted a slithering movement. "There, sir! Looks like we've got one."Romeo a
Romeo walked up the stairs of the mansion to the first floor, with his mind racing with the urgency of the situation. As he reached the first-floor landing, he discreetly made his way to the kitchen where he had first encountered the python snake.The kitchen was now bustling with activity, with about four cooks getting to work. but Romeo, determined to maintain a low profile, pretended to search for his tools among the various utensils and supplies. "Um have you guys seen an iron hook anywhere around here?" He asked the cooks.They all shook their heads, unsure of what Romeo was talking about. "No sir." They replied."Sir what is the feature this iron hook." One of the cooks poped up the question to get clarity.Romeo shrugged. "I just use it to catch snakes, that's all. You know, I'll just check." He exchanged nods with the kitchen staff, He moved into the kitchen and began to act like he was searching for an iron hook, blending in seamlessly while keeping a watchful eye on the e
Without any hesitation, Romeo barged into the room, causing Phillip Wagner to lower the gemstone which then made Heinrich Schmidt to recover his senses.Heinrich Schmidt took in a deep sigh, and opened his eyes, wondering what had just happened to him.Seizing the opportunity to maintain his cover, Romeo decided to behave in an absurd manner. With an exaggerated grin, he introduced himself in a loud and boisterous tone, "Greetings, good sir! I'm Calvin, the extraordinary snake exterminator you hired to rid this opulent and beautiful abode of those sneaky serpents."Heinrich Schmidt, still recovering from the trance, looked at Romeo with a puzzled expression. "Snake exterminator? I don't recall hiring anyone for that."Romeo continued, completely ignoring Schmidt's confusion, "Now, let me enlighten you sir Schmidt about the fascinating world of snakes! Did you know that some snakes can climb trees, while others can eat prey larger than their own heads?"Heinrich Schmidt, uninterested
