BAD IDEA"No please, you can't let him meet me here," pleaded the barrister.Everyone's attention was immediately turned on him."And why is that?" queried Caleb in a tone that registered his displeasure."It's a bad idea.""Bad for whom?" added Mr Ramirez. "By law, I am his lawyer and by that, I'm under oath to keep whatever he confides in me a secret. If he meets me and finds out I've given any information to you, he can sue me legally," he explained.His explanation made sense but it didn't solve a thing for him, reasoned Caleb. "Right. So what if the so-called lawyer is found culpable in a crime of forgery?" There was a moment of silence before Mr Ramirez spoke. "We can keep you safe only if you promise to cooperate during his arrest and interrogation. In which case you'd be found guilty of complicity. However, if you plead guilty, the charges for your sentence would be reduced based on your testimony that as his lawyer you were bound by oath to keep his secrets." They were st

SHOT BY HIS OWN Caleb made for his gun before he could fire it. But he had already pressed the trigger button with him directly in the line of fire.His reflexes were quick and spontaneous. Caleb made a swift movement downwards and the bullet missed him, though not without brushing the side of his right arm as it flew past to find a target. "Damn it, argh!" came the shrieking sound from the man hit by the bullet. It was Miguel El-Zaki. Caleb became instantly stunned. But he didn't let the moment make him lose focus. This was just one man out of the eight he counted when they alighted from their vehicles. If he didn't handle this one well, he might become the next victim. The light from his lighter gun was still shining at full glare, he turned his face to the shooter just as three bullets whisked themselves past him and were simultaneously buried into the guy's body. The question on his mind was answered when more lights came on from various angles. The shooters were Mr Ramirez

ON THE RUN"Sir, we have reasons to believe Madam Rebecca is trying to leave the country. Our men at the airport axis have reported seeing her with big luggage leaving home en route to the airport.""Are you sure?" Caleb asked even though he could already guess the answer. With her husband taken which she has probably been informed, she might know he will go after her next. "We are sure, boss." "Right. Stay on the line while I call my contact at the airport."He was referring to Mr Ramirez. He didn't have to call anyone else when the man might pull something faster like a rocket flying through the sky. Antonio himself didn't let him land when he chipped in, "Is there a problem at the airport?"Caleb nodded. "Madam Rebecca is trying to sneak out of the country." "Who is that?" "It's the ex-don's wife. Perhaps she has gotten wind of her husband's gunshot injury and is afraid I might send men after her. That's why she wants to leave the country." "But do you really need her?" Mr Ra

A NEW BOND"Okay. Thank you, Miss...""Miss Jacob." "Right. Miss Jacob before you go, can we take a look at the surroundings and see if we can find anything that could help us in investigating these criminals?"Mr Ramirez became tense. If they find the bullet from the lighter gun, they will be able to trace it to its manufacturers. And it was only three manufacturers that produced such bullets. One of them being his personal factory. "Of course, officers, you are free to do so. As long as the clients aren't disturbed in their rooms," she added sweetly. "Thank you." Then to Caleb, the lady said, "We apologise once again for the ugly incident. We are going to get to the root of the matter and make sure those responsible are duly punished according to the law." Caleb nodded in approval as she went back inside. But the inspector wasn't done yet. He said to Caleb, "If you won't mind, my men can carry you to a hospital to have your wound properly tended to." Caleb politely declined.

TOO HOT "She is a stubborn woman and will not willingly disclose anything unless we make her a deal.""What kind of deal?"Caleb shrugged. "I wouldn't know until we find out what she's afraid of losing and then offer her a guarantee of safety. She might jump at it like a horse would wiggle its tail when you dangle a carrot before its eyes.""That's not a bad idea. However, I think it wouldn't be enough to threaten a woman of such grit. If it's somehow confirmed that Hart is not El-Zaki's son, what we really need is to find out whether he has other children that may rise to fight the woman once they learn the truth." That was another angle Caleb hadn't considered. However, he didn't need to find out about his other children because Hannah had already attested that Bella was his child. And Bella's case was enough to cause trouble. It was going to have a sweet ending when the proud peacock discovers that the ordinary chicken is the preferred domestic pet. Caleb didn't want to complete

DETAINEDHart drove with bated breath heading to the ministry. He kept trying to reach his father to find out whether he was able to trace barrister Crusoe but his line remained unreachable.It was almost ten o'clock and his line wasn't still connecting. None of the bodyguards that went out with him had returned home last night. It was as if there was a conspiracy amongst them to abandon the mansion the moment their boss went incommunicado. Everyone was just acting strangely - including his mother. She had suddenly packed her bags after his father left the house telling him she was going on an emergency business trip but that she would call to inform him when to join her. "Where is this business conference, seminar, or whatever taking place?" "We'd be touring round different countries starting from Portugal. Then we'd move to Brazil and so on.""All within South America?" Hart had enquired. But she didn't give a definite answer. Surprisingly, not too long after she left for the ai

DOOMSDAY Everyone's attention was turned in the direction of the intruders. "Gentlemen, how may we help you?" the lady questioned. "It's more about how we may help you," Caleb responded. Barrister Crusoe kept his face down avoiding Hart's gaze. The director spoke next. "Yes, let's hear you out." "Good day, lady and gentlemen. My name is Caleb Dezani of Dezani Cosmetics," he introduced himself. The director narrowed his furrow, and the three men seated to the right of the lady gasped. The other three including the lady shone their eyes in disbelief. "You mean you're the CEO of Dezani Cosmetics!" "That's correct," Caleb said suppressing a grin at their dramatic expressions. The director went on. "How may we help you? I mean you already said it's you who wants to help us, so please, to what do we owe this August visit?" "Well, I was reliably informed that you were asking to see the original documents of DeZ Cosmetics." "Dez Cosmetics isn't the same as Dezani Cosmetics, am I

SHOWING UPCaleb called the inspector of police, and he promptly answered. "To what do I owe this personal call?" he said cheerfully. "To a long-lasting friendship of mutual interests," he replied. Then he added, "I was hoping we could hang out maybe later in the day. What do you think?" "Oh, that would be wonderful. Let's make it eight o'clock this evening." "That's fine by me," Caleb consented. "What venue?" the Inspector asked. "FanFood Eatery." "I shall be there," the inspector promised and the call quickly ended. A notification dropped in Caleb's phone. He checked it was a text message. He hastily read through because he was behind the wheel. A delivery truck just turned up in the El-Zaki mansion. It has spent about 25 minutes inside the premises." The message read. Caleb immediately sensed something sinister. He pulled over and replied to the informant. "Have it followed and let me know its destination." The info made him feel a bit troubled. But he shrugged it off an
