Mr. Brown walked back and forth waiting for Mr. Curtly to show up at their agreed meeting point. The blue Toyota Tacoma stopped a few blocks from where he had parked his car. Mr. Curtly rushed down to where Mr. Brown was parked.He looked disheveled and there was blood on his shirt"Get in! Get in!" He yelled pulling open the passenger door. Mr. Brown who was alarmed by his sudden rush, pulled open the door and shut the door hastily."Why the sudden rush? Is everything alright? Is that blood?" Mr. Brown asked him."I never know when I might be followed. You said it was urgent. What is it?" Mr. Curtly asked him."Was your idea of rushing down the street, your special concept of not being seen? Curtly, if anyone could have followed you, they very well might have seen you rush down the road and run into my car.""I am in so much deep shit with Causey because of you, and I don't need my family in anymore messes." Curtly replied rashly." Why is there blood on your shirt?" Mr. Brown asked
As soon as she said that, the door opened and James walked in. He had the gait of a person who had not slept all night. Sarah rose from the bed to look at him.His eyes moved to Mrs Brown. With a scoffed look on her face, she got up and left the room." Where were you last night?" She asked him. But he had already worked his clothes off and was headed to the bathroom.She plopped down on the bed as she watched his silhouette frame in the shower. They had never fought with emotions before.Not like this at least. Whatever the case, she was still the daughter of a brown, although he was rich now, or had always been, he was still the guy who had been her bodyguard and driver for years.James was out of the bathroom in a jiffy. He looked at his phone for messages and then tossed it back on the bed.His hard-built frame was even more attractive than she had remembered. Sarah shook her mind off the distracting thoughts."You won't answer me, will you?" She insisted."I slept in the car. Dro
"What the hell is she thinking??" Mr. Brown cursed as he stared at the picture of his wife and Antonio Rizzo walking out of Sheldon Shares.""Who is he?" Theodore asked."Antonio Rizzo, only one of the most dangerous men above Causey. He was a General in the Army before he was kicked out and locked up for murder, embezzlement of funds, and lots more. That man was guilty of a thousand crimes a year.""What? That bad? Rizzo... Isn't that the man Sarah is organizing a charity event for?" Theodore asked."What? Sarah's involved with him too?" Mr. Brown muttered."Not just Sarah apparently, his daughter, Viola Rizzo works at the Johnson's as an A-list partner. She and James are close associates, but I think this is all about Rizzo trying to get back into society.""What about your mother? What is she doing with him? What business has she ever handled that would warrant her relationship with him?""Why was she at Sheldon Shares?""It is always great catching up like old times. Thank you for
Sarah stared at Viola in consideration of what she had asked her. "How certain are you that all these people would attend?" Sarah asked her."Ask certain as I am of the fact that the darkness would cover the night sky tonight." Viola replied."Fine, I will attend the event, but only for my business sake. But I don't want to see you anywhere close to James. Are we clear?" Sarah asked.Viola rose her hands in surrender. "As you please." Sarah turned around and left. She bumped into Anna on her way heading to the elevator. It surprised Anna that she had been there, but she didn't even stop to apologize for bumping into her.Sarah put the phone to her ear and almost immediately, her assistant's voice came over the phone. "Where are you? "She asked her."Ma'am, I'm at the new office trying to set up." Her assistant responded. Sarah's face morphed into a frown. "What new office?" She asked her."I received your email this morning. Your husband said..." The girl kept quiet out of sudden con
James' eyes flashed. "I knew it was you. It was the same man he had chased round the hotel. The man who had hit him and run away."You trusted the wrong people, but if you tell me everything you know now, I will make sure you get a pardon and not all charges will be knocked on you." James said to him."Tell me why I should trust you." The man said to him."Give me.one good reason why I shouldn't bust up your ass here and light it up like a Christmas tree." James retorted. "Then again I suppose you would not have called me here if you didn't trust me to listen to you first.""I just want their reign of terror to end! First it was my wife and now, me! We are all trapped in this circle of use! We are indebted to that man and he ahs made us his slaves!" The man cried."Let me guess, Causey? Peter Causey?" James asked him."Peter Causey and someone else. I don't know his name, but I know he has a daughter, and he even hired this popular man who ran the great Chen heist." The man responded.
"Yes ma'am." The guard replied."Sarah! Oh my goodness, I did not believe you would actually show up!" Viola squealed as soon as she saw Sarah walk into the hall."I love your dress. It is exquisite." Sarah complimented her, before kissing the air beside her cheeks."I can't believe he allowed you to come out at this hour. Are you good? Are you sure?" Viola asked her and Sarah nodded."I don't want you and I to have any problems, Viola. At least for business sake." Sarah responded."I completely understand. I agree totally. I wouldn't want any issues between the two of us either." Viola replied. "Anyway, I am glad you came. There is someone here who would love to meet you.""This is just to prove to you that there will be a lot of people to connect with on the main event day. Sarah, meet Brianne. Brianne is one of the formal Editorial representatives for Forbes magazine. She had a lot of business contacts and event opportunities that could fly your brand in one second.""Wow, it is an
"Thank you for the advice. Now, don't ever call me up if it isn't something to do with you and my daughter getting a divorce." Mrs Brown said in a snide manner.Without waiting for a response, she got up and walked out of the restaurant. Sarah woke up that morning to find James gone. It was completely unlike him to just leave without speaking to her or at least letting her know he was leaving.Her phone had already been loaded with tons of messages concerning the charity event. Three people had already reached out to her organization to inform her they would be needing her services the next month."My goodness, basically every week in August is booked! I told you this would be a huge opportunity turn around for you." Viola said to Sarah when they met each other later that day."I couldn't agree more. Just one connect. I can't believe I haven't even done the interview yet and six people have already messaged me to handle their event security and organization.""In no time I would have
"I know, but this, is exactly what it seems, General." James replied."The Inauguration ceremony is two days from now on, we cannot have any more problems. Sort out the security issues before anymore problems ensue." The General murmured."Yes General." James replied.Although he knew who the man had been referring to when he said Causey was working with someone who had a daughter, he still needed palpable evidence.***Sarah sat back in her office chair, savouring the light of the afternoon, as the knock sounded on her door."Come in!" She called out.The door opened and the woman who was dressed in an emerald green suit, walked in. Her eyes scouring the room in admiration."These are beautiful sets of furnitures. How else can one explain the idea of class, luxury and a gracious ambience if not this office?" The Editorial representative of Forbes whom she had met at the rehearsal for the Charity event complimented her."Thank you so much, Miss Brianne." Sarah smiled."I must say that
