They stared at him to let the cat out of the bag as time was of the essence.
“... Marshall planned on proposing to Michelle on fortnight during the endorsement deal event…” he completely voiced out in a cracked tone. The fear of the unknown struck quivers down his buckled spine and all he could do was mumble pitiful prayers. “Interesting!” “Perfect timing!” “For your sake. Don't mention this beautiful meeting to your accomplices,” he chipped in, his words oozed dangerously. “In two weeks, we'll reconvene this conversation.” “However, on second thought?...” “What could have prompted y'all to call the shots for my extermination? You haven't told me why you guys contracted the assassins?” Barr. Fredrick nervously cleared his throat and darted his eyes in fear as he knew he hadn't yet revealed that one deep secret. “Get ready to spill the whole truth at the so-called proposal night…” *** Fortnight on the dot, Manchester City headlines exquisitely broadcasted the endorsement glamor that would have Michelle Sanchez honored. The distinguished guests had already arrived for the red carpet, which was scheduled for the 19th o'clock. Madam Catherine, dressed in a stunning emerald green evening gown with her jewel adorned for the memorable event. She found her path into the event with several splashes of camera shutters positioned on her face to catch the golden moments. Within five minutes, a black limousine screened at the entrance of the auditorium. Michelle alighted with an irresistible aura enthralled by her glamorous uniquely crafted designers, her dinner gown was clothed in sapphire blue. “Michelle Sanchez. Do you feel worthy of the endorsement deal as the new face of Kingstown Golden Telecommunications, given the fact the company’s heir is your fiance?” one of the interviewers skillfully inquired with tongue charmed with sarcasm. “Hey! Dumb question! We're behind schedule,” Marshall vigorously intercepted and walked off with his fiancèe which got the interviewers gazing in suspicion. “Distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen, we welcome y'all to one of the most talked about events in Manchester City. “Observing the existing protocol. Shall we begin? As time is of the essence.” “Right on the projector screen, our eyes would meet the mesmerizing stunner who would soon be recognized as the new face of Kingston Golden Telecommunications,” the host graciously expressed in all delight. Madam Catherine and Michelle beamed in joy as the exalted moments were before their eyes. Unexpectedly, an adult videotape was displayed on the projector screen which vigorously sparked the attention of every distinguished personnel in the hall. “Oh My God!” The journalists screamed out. “Gosh! What the hell!?” Many of the guests buzzed at what their eyes had beheld. Madam Catherine inhaled in terror, her eyes bulged out in horror as shame mesmerized her. On reflection, Michelle’s veins ran cold while she struggled to exhale. “What the fuck is going on?!” “Tech unit?” Marshall barked out in uncontrolled disbelief. He snapped his fingers for them to take off the videotape, but the contents kept replaying in their faces. “My Heaven's! Is that not Mrs Catherine Sanchez having sex with another man?” A good number of the seated personnel voiced out in disbelief, the displayed videotape oozed despicable disgrace. Barrister Frederick’s legs trembled in dishonor; as seconds raced by; his heart choked in fear of the possible shameful reaction they'd encounter. He never knew there was such an indicting adult rated video all along. “Mum!? You've been sleeping with the family lawyer? My God!” Michelle unbelievably uttered as she clutched her elbow on her thighs with a buckled spine. Catherine was slammed into a pounding introspective aura as fear enveloped her entirety; she didn't know who in hell's name could have recorded her sexcapades with Barr. Frederick. UNBELIEVABLE! Unbeknownst, Michael Scofield knew about the despicable affair and once made a video recording but couldn't show Mr. Charleston the shameful deeds being hatched in his abode due to his deteriorating health. He never knew he'd need that adult-rated videotape someday. Indistinct and distinct conversations lingered amongst the distinguished personnel who were yet to wrap their heads around what was unfolding. “This is preposterous! An absolute eyesore!” The crowd fussed nonstop, their teeth smacked in contempt as they shot Madam Catherine a shameful glare. “A married woman sleeping with another man in her matrimonial bed!?” “So shameless!” They continued with their sanctimonious speeches which intensified the aroused tension and ridiculed the ashamed Augustine family. “Who in the earth’s name is behind this? The videotape can't be stopped!?” Marshall heightened, his eyes gleamed in shocked perplexity. Suddenly, a distorted voice reverberated from the center of the hall. “I did!” All mouths gasped, and their eyes flickered toward where the sound echoed from; some quickly arose to catch a glimmer of the personnel behind the voice as all voices went numb. The personnel behind the commotion majestically arose and strode four steps forward, his composure charmed with mystery and puzzlement. “Who are you? Your face doesn't mark a precedent,” Marshall instantly questioned with his eyes narrowed. The man behind the voice muffled a scornful giggle and gently but skillfully undressed the hyper-realistic face mask he had worn all along. “My God! You're… the… one?” Catherine breathlessly gutted out, she swallowed hard as though a ghost had reawakened while Marshall restlessly stood with his feet quivering. “Are you not supposed to be—” Michelle was about to spill too much when she abruptly held back her words, her heartbeat ragged in confusion. “How in angel's name did you—?” Marshall reactively expressed, his words etched with incoherence. “How in death's name is he still alive? Huh!” The Augustine family terribly mused nonstop. The invited distinguished were intrigued in awe, they beheld the mysterious young man unveiling his real face as none easily grasped who he was. All along, none of his foes knew he was right there in their midst in a disguised form, wearing an undetectable human-skin face mask. Amidst the disarrayed moments, he scornfully ambled towards them in a menacing concocted titter. Their throats leaped into their chests, knowing the evil they masterminded against him failed woefully. Realization hit them damn hard; their hearts plunged into conflicting pathetic thoughts. “If he could leak the sexcapades what more wouldn't he do?” Madam Catherine's heart bled in fear. He unleashed a dry, contemptuous chuckle that struck more suspense, fear, and tension into the atmosphere, while he wore back his mystified hyper-realistic face mask; from his disposition, he only got started. “I’m Michael Scofield!” “... I’ve returned!”“The rat race is finally over!” “On your knees! Your hands wrapped around your neck!” A menacing voice alarmed in a discordant baritone. “Spill your last prayers before we send you six feet underground.” “It's the end of the road!” Three vicious voices reverberated across the cold street with their faces etched with simmering rage. Their words ushered in moments of numbness, as a surge of tension ran through the victim’s vibrated veins. Without further ado, she silently obeyed and shut her eyes in mumbled prayers with her heart bleeding in alarming pain. Uncontrollable tears glued on her tender cheeks as her spines quivered in indescribable anguish. She didn't envisage her last moments would seem profoundly pitiful. The sky viciously rumbled, accompanied by a thick, darker cloud, which sent an explicit message of a soon heavy downpour about to hit the streets of Manchester City. “Please!” Her voice desperately gutted out. “Don't do this! I will triple whatever you wer
“Miss Sheraton, who was the young man that called us in?” one of the police officers inquired with his neck nudged for immediate feedback. She rolled her eyes in shunned perplexity. “I don't know who he is. I couldn't get hold of his name before he hastily exited.” She chimed in still entrapped in inward thoughts. “Whoever he is, I'm most grateful.” The cloud continually rumbled vigorously and it was only a matter of time for the City to feel the full aura of the grooming rain. Charleston Park Shopping Mall has been in the service business for over a decade. However, for the past twenty-four months, the Business enterprise has grown beyond expectation and has enormously attracted the likes of celebrities, wealthy juggernauts, and prominent personalities who often come to patronize. Remarkably, the Atlantic Showdown Enterprise has ranked Charleston Park Shopping Mall among the top five most successful large retail businesses across European shores. “Gosh! Michael Scofield!
Michael narrowed his eyes at his wife and muttered. “What do you mean by that?” but his reflective question resounded as continually exuded a cold gesture.He knew his wife hadn't truly been in love with him in their union which was contrary to how he felt. ‘Madam Cathrine would have simply displayed all these in private. Why show them off on the tenth anniversary? Could my wife be working alongside her?’ he uncontrollably questioned inwardly as their words formed a thick voice in his head.He could feel more was underway but was yet to wrap his head around what his mother-in-law planned to achieve from her inhumane public display in the past twenty minutes.“My confused husband of all wealthy successful men across European countries to give his beloved daughter in marriage. He ridiculously chose you. He picked, “I will be rich someday, dude!”“What a joke!” her words reverberated in cooked-up insults as though she specifically waited for the tenth anniversary to entirely unleash her
“Woo! Pregnant?”“She's pregnant?” irresistible questions sprung off among the elated guests.“Really? She is?” The hall was stormed with distinct and indistinct communication oozing from different corners filled with distinguished personnel from several walks of life.Michael Scofield muffled a heartbreaking chuckle that got his head spinning in disbelief.His wife's last words echoed like an alarming bell struck deep into his chest.“What more jokes do we have today?” he spilled with his eyeball bulging out in anguish.“A few minutes back, your mother got me fired, and the next action was publicly announcing a new suitor while you're still my wife and treacherously you're pregnant?” “What in heaven's name is going on tonight!” He heightened as he held grip of his saddened overwhelming emotions.His eyes gleamed for absolute answers as his heart tugged in reverberating heartache.His ears nudged for explicit feedback in silent prayer that all revelation thus far was a prank.He endea
Amidst the unprecedented disarrayed twist of Michael's epic response, a certain man in his late fifties sprinted through the back entrance of the hall and made his way toward the stage.“I’m… I'm sorry for being late. I had an emergency at the last second,” he managed to spill out while still catching his breath.He stared around the hall and beheld different faces in undefined countenances. “Why does everyone seem stunned?” “Where is Michael? Didn't he make it for the tenth anniversary?” he continually inquired as he drew closer to the Augustine family who were still rattled.Madam Catherine drew a breath with somewhat curved lips. “He just exited the hall… there's something weird about–” she was still in words when she hastily got interrupted.“I don't care whatever! Has he been divorced?” Barr. Frederick proactively expressed.“Yes… he has…although there was something strange about…” Michelle responded in a stuttering aura as she was unable to wrap her head around how her ex-husba
“Who sent you!” He screamed at the top of his lungs while he raced as two assassins audaciously sprinted towards him. After a few moments of not closing in on him due to how swiftly he paced, they returned to the moving van and zoomed toward him with one absolute mission; ‘Kill him!’ Within ten seconds in a marathon race to preserve his life, hot, dripping sweat engrossed his head as he could breathe the hotness of the thick air. He perceived no one could come to his rescue and the only option was to keep running till his legs failed him. The black van dangerously swerved towards his sprinting position, and before he could blink his eyelids, it viciously slammed him through. He uncontrollably fell across a field floor surrounded by thick bushes with his shoulders plunged against the wet grasses. He uncontrollably lost control while falling and somersaulted multiple times with his head persistently colliding against the thick bushes across the road a few miles from Manchester Cit
“Sir!!!” A hasty thudding footsteps persistently approached in a gasping breath. “Please come with me!” “Sir!” the stormy voice reverberated in its thickness. A seemingly frightened young man in his early twenties, in a fast heartbeat, vigorously sprinted towards Livingbird Memorial Cemetery, which was barely three minutes away from Southgate Godfrey's Lake. “It's extremely urgent!” “Please come with me!” The same alerted voice echoed across the quiet moody ambiance. On reflection, an angry, concocted voice expressed with brows furrowed. “Who the hell are you?! Can't you see I'm having quiet moments with the deceased?” a light-skinned man in his late sixties barked out in a sharp exhalation. “I’m sorry, but if it wasn't life-threatening. I wouldn't have called for your help. You need to–” he was still in speech before being aggressively interrupted. “And what!? What in heaven's name happened?” his eyes still on the cemetery ground. The young man replied after letting out a dry
Within a twinkle of an eye, time swiftly raced with urgency as one hundred and sixty-eight hours traveled around the ticking clock.“He’s awake!” The light-skinned man voiced out in astonished delight.“Thank heaven! His pulse has normalized.” “Welcome back, Mr–” The herbal healer and his son stood in awe while in speech when Michael groggily cut them short.“Please, where am I? Who are you?” His words were charmed in puzzling questions as he rotated his weakened eyeballs across the herbal-decorated room.“Ahhh! My head! It hurts!” He screamed out in an attempt to raise his head out of curiosity.“Easy boy. You need to rest your head for a few more hours,” the light-skinned man helped dress his body in the wooden greenish chamber.On reflection, he sluggishly gave himself a full-measure stare and noticed his head and two arms were bandaged due to the intensive injuries he sustained from the car hit and manhandling beatings.“My name is Ethan, my grandfather is the herbal specialist wh
