They all stared at Sally as she brought out a gun from her cloth. "Guess I came prepared too." They all moved back in shock as more SWATs entered. "Everybody out!" The people in the restaurant were allowed to go outside, leaving George and Sally with the SWATs."You don't want to do this Sally, just surrender and let's all forget that this ever happens." George said.George had called the SWAT on his way to the restaurant. He wanted to arrest Sally and he had put a recording tape on his body, which recorded everything and enhanced the SWATs to hear everything said by them."This is exactly what I want to do, to finish everybody off and return to my mom." She pointed the gun at George and pulled the trigger unexpectedly, cursing a distraction for them all. She used that medium to run out of the restaurant, she met one of the SWATs outside waiting for them and shot him before he was able to lift his gun to shoot."Oh my gosh! Hold on dude, just hold it there." One of the SWATs chanted
George had been tracking Sally's whereabouts who had gone into hiding.While George sat in his study lost in thoughts after the news of Anna's kidnap got to him, it's been two days already. He has been tracking her and doing everything to know her whereabouts but none has proved futile. The kidnappers too haven't contacted him.His phone rang which brought him out of his thoughts. He checked it and saw it was a strange number, he hesitated before picking it up, a strange number hadn't called his phone so he was skeptical about picking up the call but since he didn't know the reason why whosoever that was calling him was using a strange number, he decided to pick the call."Hello, I guess you are good, George Melmer!" A deep masculine voice said."Of course, who is this?" George replied."I heard about your wife and I can be of help. I know who has her, and where she is and if you think I am lying, check the CCTV footage I will forward now to your phone," The voice said and immediately
Jane reached out to George to know the situation of things so far in finding Anna."My secret agent had been trying to reach out to them. He is also looking out for him. I had instructed him to keep an eye on Davis, he might be the one making all the moves while Sally, who we discovered was also involved, would be watching Anna," George said, to which Jane agreed."I will also be doing everything in my power to help out. I and Chris had checked almost all the CCTV cameras in search of Anna. The house they are staying at on the outskirts of the city is unusually cold. As of today, I don't think Anna is safe anymore. We got a glimpse of men who came visiting," Jane reported.George informed her of how hard his men were working towards finding Anna which was very satisfactory to her.He was disturbed himself, he was feeling very bad and had a strong feeling that Anna wasn't safe too which made him decide to go onlook and in search of him himself. He didn't care if his life would be expo
On getting close to the penthouse, George stopped the car, making the other people to do so too."Why are you stopping?" Jane asked him."It's dangerous, remember the group of dangerous men that was seen entering the penthouse," George pointed out."Yeah, I remember," Jane replied.George decided to involve the police in order to have assurance for safety. He didn't want a case whereby the men would attack and get them injured or hold them captive. He didn't know what Davis' plan was and he couldn't tell.He didn't know what he might have planned with Sally but he knew how dangerous he could be.George searched through his phone, looking for the contact of an acquaintance who was a police man, a high ranked officer in his division. He luckily found it and quickly put a call through him.The police officer picked after the first ring like he was expecting George's call."Hello Mr Jackson! It's been a long time," he said cheerfully over the phone. "How have you been? I know how busy yo
The police officers were able to trace Sally and Davis through the men they caught to their hideout where they got arrested and taken to the police station.George went to the hospital to check on Anna and Jane who were admitted. He was worried about their condition when the doctor informed him that both of them were in critical condition.Anna was being operated on to remove the bullet, and Jane was being revived as she had passed out due to the substance that the men fed her.George was restless as he paced about the hospital, praying that he doesn't lose any of them. Jane risked it all, just to help him get Anna back from the hands of the abductors. It wasn't an easy task but she made sure she stood by him.Too many people were already hurt in this journey of his, salmon and Damian were yet to be discharged from the hospital because they were recovering from the attack they got the last time now it was Jane and Anna.Everyone around him was down, he was the only one standing and it
"You are worthless and wretched. A dead dog is better than you."This sentence could not leave his head as it pierced into his heart like a sharp sword. Like a wounded lion, he moved around with a big hole in his heart. His tattered clothes and worn out shoes made him stand out from the rest of them in the city's large market. Most people that passed him covered their nose in pretense that there was a peculiar odor emanating from him.George Melmer dragged his feet on the floor, his eyes roaming about the market looking for some necessities to buy. Deep down, his heart was shattered as the prices of the goods there were too high."Damn! Why are things so expensive?" he slapped his head, dropping a tin of milk into the basket."How will you come into the market when you don't have enough money to pay? You must be a joke," a random stranger mocked as she brushed past him."I think he should be watched. People like him are broad day thieves," another concurred, sticking out her tongue.
"Austin!" Everyone screamed at the intensity of the slap. George staggered, biting his lips. His eyes turned red but he held his calm. No one was expecting that to happen. Especially not from Austin.Anna released her hand slowly from George's clothes. "Son of a wretch. Bringing this family name to the floor. In my family we don't have poor people. My sister is suffering because of you," he poured out all his angry words on George. He had been keeping all these inside of him and now it had reached its elastic limit."That was wrong, Austin," madam Patricia intervened, hitting the table with her hand. A beautiful glass cup fell off the table and shattered into pieces.Ignoring it, she got up from her seat and moved to where George was standing still in shock."To hell with that, Grandmother. I can't believe you are comfortable being under the same roof with a church rat. Someone who can barely eat," he lamented pacing around the corner. It was as if he was looking for sharp objects t
Chapter 3.He could not let anyone around him get deceived by the games of Austin. Austin didn't want to agree with him on this and he was ready to go to the root of this matter."How can you tell it's fake? You know nothing!" Austin blabbed. His sister was taking his side too as she continued hammering that her brother can't get the fake of anything."I know my gift is nothing compared to others," George started and everyone laughed out loud. He did not get the joke and he wondered what was funny in what he said."You brought thrash here, calling it a gift. I'm sure the maids have done a great job in taking it to the wastebin," Austin mocked him the more.He was not feeling sorry for himself. This made George Melmer's heart harden even more. He expected Austin to drag him to a corner and beg for forgiveness.At least, the secret would be between both. Austin was a proud man and George wanted to kick that pride out of his body. "Have you forgotten what to say, Mr. Man?" Someone asked
