James hurried off from Common Bank back to Capitalize Escort so he could pick up Sarah. He stepped out of the car and rushed into the building, hoping that she had not been through yet.He greeted the receptionist and asked her if Sarah had been done yet."No, Miss Brown has not come down yet" the young lady replied."Alright"James nodded. He decided to get a cup of coffee, and then, take a seat there at the reception.While he was on his way to get coffee, he ran into his former Boss, Mr. Raymond Colt, the Mangaer of Crystal's Angels, a low budget Escort Company.James had worked with him as a security personnel, and that was where he got his experience to work with Capitalize Escort.Mr. Raymond had a rather grim expression on his face and he looked really upset.Mr. Raymond had come to Capitalize Escort to pitch a business proposal to them, but had been rejected because he did not pass the review.Sarah was not interested in doing business with them, and on seeing James, he thought
James picked out his phone and dialed Anna's number amidst Mr. Raymond's rants."Anna, I need you to help me out with something here. Put a call across to the owner of Crystal's Angels Escort Services. I want her to know that her Manager is unsuitable for the position he is manning." James said angrily into his phone.Mr. Raymond shook his head with laughter as he mocked James for thinking he could fake a call to scare him."Oh my goodness, you must be desperate to think you can fool anyone with that....is that a phone? What is that?" Mr. Raymond mocked James while pointing to the phone in his hand."What is going on?" Anna asked rubbing her forehead. Although she had warned James severally about this lifestyle he had resorted to living, he still refused to listen to her."He is being verbally violent and improper at a business establishment. You can tell his Boss that he just ruined her chances at doing business with Capitalize Escorts." James replied.Anna rubbed her forehead again
James opened the back door for Sarah to get in. He stood with his back straightened, and his face upturned.Sarah glanced at his stiffened frame, and a pang of guilt stabbed at her chest. What was wrong with him anyway? She thought to herself.She let out a sigh as she settled into the back seat. Her eyes watched him secretly as he got into the driver's seat. He locked the doors and wound up the tinted glass windows so that he could turn on the Air conditioning just like she liked it.Her face furrowed into a frown as she appraised the situation she had just found him in with Mr. Raymond. She was certain she had seen Raymond begging him for forgiveness."What did you do or say to Mr. Raymond that had him all in a frenzy just now?" She asked ignoring his crude manner.She saw James glance up at her through the rearview mirror but stayed quiet instead. He repeated his look twice, aware that she was still gazing at him."What makes you think I said anything to him?" James asked with a ra
"Okay, I'm sorry, I don't understand what is going on? How did you get my information and who is issuing the money? Is it a loan or what?" Anna asked in a state of total shock and confusion."Well, Ma'am the orders came directly from the top, I would like to confirm some details of yours, Ma'am," the representative who spoke with her said."Is everything alright, Ma'am?" James asked glancing at her from the rearview mirror.She raised her forefinger at him, signaling him to hold on momentarily."Okay, go ahead," Sarah said to the girl, praying and hoping it was not some prank of Peter Causey's to trick her and dupe her of more money than she had left."What is your full name?" the girl asked."Sarah Brown...Johnson" she added the last part in a whisper. She had never once said James'surname to hers, but to seek loans, she did that because it showed the establishments that she was responsible as well as trustworthy.It was absurd, yet, all the same, that was the structure of the world.
Sarah signed the papers that were handed to her by Rebecca and watched her move around the office, stapling, photocopying, and faxing what was needed at that moment.Rebecca regained her seat as soon as she was done mailing out Sarah's information back to the cashiers and to the Manager."I have sent the order to the cashiers downstairs and back to the Manager. In less than fifteen minutes, you should receive an alert from your Company's Bank." Rebecca assured her."Wow, thank you, thank you so much," Sarah said to Rebecca and followed James outside.As soon as she was outside the door, her phone beeped, signaling her that she had just received a text message. She opened the message and saw the alert of one hundred million dollars deposited into her account by Common Bank.Sarah squealed excitedly and jumped into James unconsciously as she rejoiced."Oh my goodness! It worked!" She squealed outJames held her steady in his arms, releasing his grip on her gently as their eyes met, and
James watched Mr. Brown retreating as he walked away towards the restroom area."Hello, I don't know what you want from me. Why are you doing this now??" Mr. Brown roared into the phone. His voice was hushed, and at the sounds of footsteps approaching the Bathroom door, he pulled a stall open and went into it."What you think about on a daily is what is affecting you right now, Mr. Charles Brown" Peter Causey's grim voice sounded over the phone."I refuse to let you be a terror to my family and me. What do you want?! Mr. Peter Causey?" Mr. Brown asked." We had a deal! You owe me, Mr. Brown and you know this. It is far beneath you to decide to suddenly back out of an agreement we created on a long-term basis". Peter Causey's voice sounded leeringly."It did not involve raping my daughter! Your atrocious act broke that deal the minute you laid your filthy hands on her! You were supposed to charm her into falling for you and not force yourself on her!" Mr.. Brown said in vexation."What
James got up angrily as he glared at Theodore Brown. He had gone too far in his accusations, and James was more than willing to put him in his place."How dare you speak to her like that?!" James asked in a threatening tone."Who gave you the right to speak? " Theodore scoffed. "I knew it, I did! You give them a chair, and they take the whole house! This is all your fault, we are here in this post in the first place because of you!" Theodore accused Sarah while pointing a finger at her."Put your finger down!" James bellowed."And what would you do about it, if I don't! This is a family matter, if we need to clean the outsides of the cup, I'll call your name! Capisce?" Theodore retorted."Apologize to her" James had lost his temper by now, and whenever he was about to take a dangerous step, his voice relaxed into a dark, silent growl. Which was what he used in speaking to Theodore now."Excuse you?" Theodore asked, looking angrily from Sarah to James, and back to Sarah's face which wa
Sarah pulled herself out of his grip, she stared into his eyes for a moment breathing heavily. What was she doing? She asked herself.She was supposed to hate him, hate his guts for putting her in the complicated situation she had found herself in. This was James Johnson, poor James Johnson, the man she could not stand, or perhaps she thought she could not stand him.I'd she hated him that much, then why had she slept with him two times now? Why did her knees feel weak now that he had kissed her, and touched her?"You can't deny that there is something here," James whispered to Sarah. "You know what I mean. You and I belong together and that is what we are now."His thumb traced an invisible line across her lower lip.Sarah continued to stare into his eyes as though she were hypnotized into paying attention to His words. He reached down to her face and caressed her cheeks gently. He watched her face twist with uncertainty, and do, he let his hand drop."Take me home." She whispered ho
