After taking their orders from their master, the celestial assassins dismissed into the night with unconscious Gab, whose body was meant to be transported to one of the ruthless prisons outside the country to repent for his sins. approving the idea, he also instructed them to include the Holy Bible in the things being transported with him to keep him company.Mason, holding Sonia's car keys, drove through the street in search of her, while his eyes kept scanning outside the windshield. He took a turn to a familiar path the GPs had suggested, and just before he approached a building that towers above a small counter, two new notifications from the celestial system displayed in front of him, one of which seems to be a congratulations message, assisted by unread notifications pending above the screen.Mason removed his leg from the accelerator and slid his hand across the large screen, clicking on the notification.[Mission Activated: Deliver justice!]The message read, and below the not
Mason drove into Sonia’s neighborhood, taking a turn that led to her street. The few pedestrians moving in the opposite direction waved at the windshield, indicating that they should avoid that direction. Mason, adamant at their warnings, adjusted his gaze to see what the pedestrians were referring to, and his eyes panned at the distant red and blue flashes of the police siren, illuminating the roadblocks ahead of them. The environment, which was once filled with silence and peace, was now invaded by barricades and several cops searching vehicles and requesting drivers for licenses. The paramedics busy at the nearby ambulance caught Mason’s attention, and he turned to Sonia, who also had her attention pinned on the scene. The policemen holding a bright touch light noticed the incoming car and flashed their light for him to pull over. Mason, obeying their instructions, removed his leg from the accelerator and slowed the car to a stop. The cops approached the car while their eyes vig
When Mason spoke those words, the two policemen turned their focus toward him and began taking his statement. Mason, who was familiar with police procedures, made sure not to say anything that contradicted Sonia's earlier statement. All the information he provided matched Sonia's, and the police didn't see any reason to conduct a background check on him. After the police collected Mason's statement, the scene slowly dissolved, leaving a few cops to patrol Sonia's premises in case Gab decided to return to the villa.Unlike the police, Gab's return didn't bother Mason because he knew Sonia was safe and her brother couldn't escape from the celestial assassins who planned to send him to an isolated prison to serve his life sentence.Mason slid into the back of the booked taxi and instructed the driver to drop him at the Williams Mansion. The taxi driver gave him a stunned expression, knowing that the Williams private district had a very strict security policy at night. When Mason noticed
Laughter filled the room, and Mason adjusted his gaze to the two people. His twin sister and their mother had joined forces in teasing him, and whenever he thought they were done with the conversation, Haley would bring another question that would end up in laughter. "Oh, I don't mind; laugh all you want," Mason muttered, prompting more tears to cloud Haley's eyes from the laughter. A smile threatened to appear on his lips, but he forced it back, not ready to give her the satisfaction of winning. Mason pulled out his phone to distract himself from their discussion, but somehow Haley always dragged his attention away.“I could set you on a date if you are afraid to make a move on your colleague or the dean of students,” Haley laughed, stressing her statement. Mason rolled his eyes, and when he turned to his mother, she averted her gaze and did not intervene. “I have well-mannered and have beautiful friends, Mas; just say the word,” Haley added, and Mason growled, sending another round
The week ended fast, dragging on Monday morning. The breeze escaping into the large French window on the east wing of the Williams mansion sent cold shivers to Mason's feet, which weren't covered by the blanket. He peels his eyes from his slumber, glancing at the alarm by his side. The device was yet to carry out its daily routine, and Mason, not waiting for the obnoxious sound to vibrate, crawled out of bed to begin the day.Mason felt his heart skip a beat when the earlier conversation with his mother clocked in his mind. They were having a board meeting today, and as much as he would like to hide his identity, he was told the press and the entire media will be waiting to have a glimpse at the Williams family. The meeting was unavoidable, and his mother had made it mandatory, so he had to attend.With a deep breath, Mason hit the shower, washing out the urge to return to bed. Twenty minutes later, he was done and exited the bathroom. As usual, he scanned through the several formal a
The crowd filled with anticipation rushed towards the lines of exotic cars. The journalist and their cameramen immediately began recording and flashing their cameras from a distance, and right away the tires of the cars halted at the entrance of DSI. The men in black suits exited their vehicle, creating a secure path for the Williams family out of the reach of journalists pushing forward for attention.Haley was the first to exit the Rolls-Royce, followed by her personal security, which surrounded her as a second protection. The press turned their attention to her. They struggled between the security line and could only stretch their microphones forward to ask various questions."Ms. Hakey, over!” Different voices called, and when she glanced across the curious face of the media, she pointed at the man who had been struggling among other journalists. The rest instantly made space for him to speak, sending silence through the crowd. “Is it true your brother is coming to Dream Space Inn
Mason's eyes roamed around as they made their way through the private entrance exclusively for emergency use by the Williams family. Shortly along the hallway, they approached a metallic door with a restricted access sign towering above them. The head of security, leading the way, turned to the only person with access to the lock.Grace pulled out two security cards from her bag and handed one to Mason with his name and the Williams logo created on it. There were only three cards, and Haley was the other person with access to the emergency entrance.Mason slipped his card into his wallet, while Grace handed hers to the head of security, who slid it across the mounted sensor. The door with a green beep departed, revealing a private elevator, and unlike the other elevators, which were meant for the staff, the Willaims private elevator skipped through the first lobby meant for security checks and other activity before providing entrance into the second floor of the main building.After a
Mason confidently walked out of the lobby and turned into a quieter hallway with fewer people. He checked his buzzing phone and answered the incoming call.“Mr.Williams?” Dr. Lukeman's voice came through immediately the line connected, giving Mason a hint as he could sense the urgency lacing the doctor's tone."Dr. Lukeman, I didn't expect to hear from you so soon," he replied, feigning ignorance of the situation. The man on the other end of the line felt his heart leap to his throat, thinking Mason was unaware of the trending rumors soaring through the internet. Even the hospital was flooded with media eagerly anticipating an explanation from Williams Central Hospital.The director, who had received instructions from Mrs. Williams, had informed the medical staff in charge of the trial not to provide any information relating to the trial to the media as it would draw more attention, which was the last thing it needed.“I… "I'm sorry, Mr. Williams, I failed you, and somehow the media f
