“ So, what are you saying right now? Do you mean to tell me that there's no other person who could help out with this? Is that what you are saying?” Terrence challenged his intel in the hospital.“ Yes, sir. There are three guards surrounding them at every minute, there's nothing I can do. I think they already suspect my involvement, so I would rather not make it too obvious.” Dr. Lambert said.He saw the way they were staring at him and knew that he would be in big trouble if he tried anything funny. He was even tempted to run, but something told him that if he did, he would have himself to blame, and he didn't want for himself.“ What do you suggest we do? You're the one inside the hospital, don't tell me that you can't do anything. It's a very big lie which I wouldn't tolerate. Now, tell me, would you want to remain alive or be six feet under? You know what? I don't need to do any of that for you, all I need is to just leak out the conversation to the press and watch what you love
Caine drove to Capsicum Palace at night that day, when he alighted from the vehicle, he was surprised to see the building resembling a shed.It was laden with a wooden roof, which looked beaten down and worn out, there was also a healthy It beat his imagination why this place was called a palace because in his opinion, it wasn't worth to be called that. He put his hand in his pocket, touching his revolver to make sure that he was prepared in case of any emergency. Slowly, he trudged towards the shed and pushed the door open. The restaurant fell quiet when he walked in and many pairs of eyes swung at him. His hand was firm on his pocket, waiting for any mishap so that he could show himself to them.“ Hey, Mr. Caine, over here!” Lambert called as he waved his hand. “ Hello, guys, he's with me!” “ I hope it wasn't stressful to locate this place.” Dr. Lambert asked, in a conversational tone, when Caine drew arrived at his table.“ No, it wasn't.” Caine lied.Dr. Lambert flashed a grin,
After a few hours, Henry suddenly jerked out of his sleep when he heard a small noise and Fred also arose," Hey, it's okay,” he said as he went closer to where he was staying.He merely stared on as he watched the unknown man's eyes flicker in concern.“ Don't try to move your body or anything, you will be fine.” Fred spoke again, leaving Henry wondering who this man was. He hoped he wasn't stuck in some place with those bad people.Fred saw the uncertainty and fear in Henry's eyes and chuckled," Don't worry, you are safe.” He said, he knew that Henry had had different encounters that made him scared. Heck, he would be too.”Henry didn't as do as little as twitch a muscle because he was still feeling very weak and didn't think that he would be able to do much today.Fred pressed the button beside his bed, and smiled, “The nurses will be here very soon.” He told him. Then he adjusted his legs to lay well on the bed. Another doctor arrived with a few nurses as soon as possible.“ It's
“ Finally we have you in our custody. I didn't think that it would be this easy. Alas! I guess one should never say never, sometimes, things fall in place as they should.” Terrence smiles mockingly as Caine roused from his unconscious state.He took in the apartment he was taken into, it was a condo. So he was somewhere rich. This was good, he could easily check for where it is on Google Maps. Then he slapped his hands over his pockets, but he couldn't feel his phone.“ Are you searching for this?” Terrence flashed the phone in his eye with a mocking smile.Caine didn't reply. He would give it to Terrence for doing him good by not tying him up, that showed how foolish he was.“ So, what do you want me to do for you?” He asked, making no attempt to move.Terrence placed a finger under his cheek and tapped it carefully," I don't know what I want you to do for me.” He said, then his eyes lit up like a lightbulb.“ Why don't you get me the files containing the Consortium blueprint?”Caine
Pops walked into the lobby the next day with his hand on his cane. He had been using it a lot lately when the stress level became really high. Going forward, he was greeted by many workers downstairs, to which he replied with a fake smile. After weeding out some bad eggs, he was left with this new set of workers who didn't understand that he didn't appreciate much greetings from him because he knew that too much familiarity breeds insult.Furthermore, he had decided that after Grin's betrayal, he wasn't going to entertain any form of lightheartedness with any member of staff.He approached the elevator, and pressed the button outside, the lights flashed and he entered.His eyes roamed about the elevator, and he launched into deep thought, recounting everything which had happened in the past six months and discovered that there was a pattern.In the first installment, someone would try to capture Henry or break into his home and at the end of the day, they wouldn't succeed.Later, it s
“What?” Pops spluttered as he tried to understand what was going on, “ What do you mean by knowing who is behind it?” “Well, I have my suspicions.” Pops groaned, don't fuck me, boy!' he muttered inwardly. “ I should have known that this was a trap. What do you need? Money to release the information?” His brother rolled his eyes at Pop's impatience," If you would just be patient, maybe we can get all of this sorted out, you know?” He said.Pops shook his head angrily," No, I don't know, tell me who did it, I don't think it's too much to ask.” He said, and pressed the bell beneath his tabletop. “ Grin, come in here and escort this man out of this place.” He said.“ So you aren't going to hear what really happened? How you can save your son and your business at once?” His brother asked in incredulity.“ I guess so, I don't need to see nor talk to you, I know this game. You will lead me up an empty road and set me down for disappointment, right?” “No, that's not what I am trying to…"
“ Clara, where are you?” Pops inquired.“I don't know where I am, I sneaked out of the house.” Clara replied, as she looked around thinking about where she was supposed to go to this time. She was sure that she looked mad…if she was in the open, she might have been picked up as one of the mad people in the street. Her mouth and armpits oozed.“ Okay, stay put. Could you please give me a description of any landmark you can see there?” He asked her, and she came out of the building she was hiding behind.Luckily, she saw a hospital," The Community Hospital.” She whispered.Pop's eyes “Okay, I'll send Derek's number to you right now so that you can reach each other when he arrives.” He said. He wouldn't make the mistake of sending her to the Central hospital, since a lot of his people were there. If they were going to search for her, it was definitely going to be that hospital.“ Okay, sir.” She returned into the shed she was hiding immediately, and was waiting for Derek.Pops hung up i
Clara coughed loudly trying to get smoke out of her lungs, she didn't know when she flew away. Suddenly her eyes widened.Her phone! Lord! What if Derek was already searching for her? Here she was not knowing where it was.She rose on shaky feet and saw that the house was burning, smoke covered the atmosphere, she was going to be found if she remained here, after all they were going to check what happened.She slowly trudged to the front of the building. He did say that his car was black with an open roof, she guessed she had to start looking for the car.Derek had passed twice searching for her. The building had gone up in flames so he knew that she wouldn't be there, she had probably fled for safety. Maybe she dropped her phone in a hurry because it made it nervous. How would they meet each other now?Clara was busy flagging down every car she saw. As long as they were black and had an open roof.. there was a very high chance that she wouldn't be picked and she didn't mind because th
