The next morning, Mr Wellington called Mr Maxwell who had called him before. “Before I sign the contract I want to see my daughter with my eyes.” Mr Wellington said exactly as I had told him to."Hmmm, hold on, I will tell you if you can.” Mr Maxwell said as he hung up. he called Charlie immediately. “Hello Charlie. Mr Wellington says he won’t sign unless he sees his daughter physically. What should we do?” he asked, confused. Charlie took a deep breath in. “Could it be Tony who asked him to say this?” He said, wondering. “but it’s only normal that he would want to be sure we have his daughter. Don’t worry Mr Maxwell, I will handle Mr wellington.” Charlie said. As he picked up another phone to call Mr wellington. “Hello Mr wellington. Now listen carefully, we would bring you to see your daughter but if you think of calling the police, Tony or anyone at all, I wouldn’t hesitate to kill Sarah. “ok. I won’t call anyone.” Mr Wellington said scared as he hung up the call. Mr Wellington
Charlie looked at me shocked. “I thought I told you to take Tony off this case!” Charlie shouted at Mr wellington. “Well for starters, how dare you shout at a man older than you like that.” I said as I punched Charlie on the face hard. Mr Maxwell and the other men there ran away.Charlie staggered as he fell on the floor. “Mr wellington you may go, your daughter is with Trina. The police are on their way.” I said to Mr Wellington as he left. I locked the door leaving only me and Charlie. Charlie ran back and forth the room. “What are you doing Tony, haven’t you won. Why are you still disturbing me?” Charlie asked, feeling confused. “You call this disturbance? Disturbance is using my voice to trick someone into getting kidnapped. No it’s not just disturbing but also disgusting as well. You couldn’t even carry out a mission yourself without manipulation and deceit just like you always do.” I said as I wore a glove in my hand. “what are you talking about?” Charlie asked, pretending no
John stood there frozen and everyone stared back at him. He thought to himself “I've said nothing wrong. Why are they not reacting?” “So how exactly do we make more money by making our coffee for the common man?” the investor whom Lizzy had bribed asked John. “Look, this is business. We are not really concerned about who takes the coffee or not, we just need it to make money.” He added. Some people agreed with him. Even though John was not so prepared for such a question he decided to respond. “making money is not automatic. It involves a lot of this. We already make coffee for the rich and only the rich have been buying it for years. In order to make more money, we need to expand the market. We can make another form of the coffee one which the common man can still access. It doesn’t have to really be the same packaging that makes it cost a fortune. It just needs to be our product. That way we win from both sides.” John replied to the man. “What if the so-called common man rejects
I dropped Mr. Wellington and Sarah off at his mansion. “Thank you Tony. I don’t know what to say. If not for you my Sarah would have been…” Mr. Wellington was saying when I cut him short. “It's my pleasure Mr. Wellington, but I am truly still worried about you and Sarah’s safety. “You are right Tony. The lotus group won’t just give up.” Mr. Wellington added. “What do you suggest? Should I call the police?” Mr. Wellington asked. “the police won’t be able to handle them. They have got it all planned. Did you record any of the phone calls you had with them?” I asked Mr. wellington. “oh no I didn’t remember that. I was panicking at that time. I couldn’t think properly.” Mr. Wellington responded. “ok it’s fine then. Don’t involve the police. I will deal with it. Mr. Wellington, I know this might be a bit difficult to do. You and Sarah need to restrict your movements from now on. Don’t go anywhere without informing both me and probably Mr. Walter about where you are going and take enoug
“Paula was the one who treated John's son?” Trina asked, standing up and looking down at me. I was silent. “Tony, did you break a rule just for your friend’s son?” she asked further. “No one needs to find out about it. After all, I am the second in command of the Dark Dragon. I should be able to do this at least.” I replied. Trina still looks very unsure. “you want to use your position to break the rules?” she asked again. “I told you before Trina that our essence is to save people. Save the good, the innocent. If you see someone dying should you just leave them to die? Can the rule you keep bring a person back to life? What kind of rule makes you leave someone to die?” I asked her with a serious face. Trina was quiet for a moment. “I know Tony, but what if John finds out about the dark dragons. How do we deal with that kind of situation?” Trina asked now sober. “you are right but when things happen impromptu, you deal with the problem impromptu too. I pray that the day John finds
Trina dropped me off at John’s house. “Thanks for the ride, Trina.” I said. “You should rest Tony.” Trina said as she zoomed off. I rang the doorbell. George opened the door. “who are you?” George said as he looked at me weirdly. “I am your godfather.” I replied as I carried him up. “George who’s that?'' John asked as he came to check who it was. “how are you doing?” I waved to him casually. “Dumebi! I mean Tony. God I thought I had gotten used to call you that already. I am so glad you could make it.” John said smiling. “So how many people are coming for dinner exactly?” I asked looking around to see if John invited anyone else. “no just you. I just invited you. You were literally the reason why all this is even happening. “I can’t believe this is George.” I said looking at his face. “You scared the hell out of your parents, you little kid.” I said as I pinched his check. “Dad, he is the one in the photograph, right?” George said as he observed my face. “What photograph?” I asked
“I thought we were friends and that you wouldn’t hide more things from me Tony.” John added. “John, what on earth are you talking about?” I asked still very confused. Did he find out about the dark dragons or not? I wondered. “Tony, how couldn’t you tell me that you and Trina are co-workers? When you had regained your memory you didn’t deem it fit to tell me that the fine lady who came to look for you at the restaurant everyday was your co-worker?” John asked as he smiled and tapped my shoulders. I looked at John with a relieved face. For a moment there I thought he knew everything about the dark dragons. “Why did you look so scared though? I did intend to scare you but not that much though.” John said as he started to laugh. “Please Tony ignore him. He behaves like a child.” Lyla said laughing. “What is your relationship with Trina though? You two seem oddly close?” John asked. “nothing, as you said co-workers. She’s more or less like a younger sister to me.” I replied. “oh ok. T
Maggie got to my place a few minutes after Charlie had gone. I couldn’t help but think of what Charlie was planning. At the moment I could clearly see he was up to something but it wasn’t clear at all. Did he want me to get him arrested or is it his plan for me to think he doesn’t want to be arrested so he could be arrested. Whatever it was it was bothering me a lot that it was clearly showing on my face for Maggie to ask. “Tony, what are you thinking of? Are you ok?” she asked, looking at me worriedly. “Nothing Maggie, I am fine.” I replied realising I must have zoned out for a while. “I was saying I had sent the gift to the address this morning.” She added. “What gift?” I forgot what I had asked her to do for me yesterday. “You asked me to send a plane for a six-year-old kid, remember.” She said smiling realising I had forgotten. “You seem a bit absent minded today.” She added. “I just have a lot that I need to sort out with myself.” I replied. “you need to find inner peace Tony
