What did you just say? Say it again.” I said laughing. “I said I want to take care of you. There’s nothing funny about it Tony. I am very serious.” She replied. “in other to prove it to you. Let’s go on another date.” She said all of a sudden. “Sarah you don’t have to think you owe me anything just because I saved your life. Your father is our client and my very good friend you know. You are also my friend so I would do anything for anyone I consider my friend.” I added. Sarah looked disappointed at my statement. “I guess you treat everyone the same way. You are just a nice guy.” She said. “but that won’t stop me. Despite the fact you take care of everyone no one takes care of you. I will be that person.” She said confidently again wrapping her hand on my checks. She added. “since you insist I can’t stop you can I?” I asked jokingly. “no you can’t. Let’s go out when you are free ok?” she asked. “fine sure.” I replied. “alright I am done but still go to a hospital to do a proper ch
“Hello Tony, I need your help!” Maggie shouted. “Maggie, calm down. Why do you sound so sad?” I asked. She started to cry. “Tony, two malls that we are a huge investor in just got burnt.We have lost a lot of money Tony.” She added as she started to cry even more. Before I could say anything my second phone started to ring, I looked at the call and it was Ashely.“Maggie I will call you back but definitely don’t panic. I will help you with everything. Just relax.” I replied to her and hung up the call. “hello Ashely what’s up. I am on my way to the Dark Dragon base.” I said in a rush. “No, I was about to ask you not to come any more. Pain said you’ve already been through a lot and needs to rest. Pain said he was going to take on the mission.” She said, “oh ok, but what was the mission about?” I wondered what it was. “We are looking at an arsonist case.” She replied. “an arsonist? Wait, did they burn a mall by any chance?” I asked further. “Yes, two malls. The case is really very con
I brought in a white board in front of the parlour. “Look here. I am trying to put these things together. None of it is actually making sense now. I feel like there is something that is not showing on the surface.” I said looking at the clues that we have been able to gather. “For now we need to see how we can find any of those witnesses who said they saw the person who set the fire.” I added. “I think Ashely should be able to help with that. She received a call from someone who claimed to have seen the person. Let me call her. What should I ask her?” Pain asked. “ask for the witness number. We need to talk to the witness.” I added. “ok Pain replied as he walked aside to handle that. I downloaded the image of the burnt malls. Also pictures of all the investors of the mall and even various rival’s malls and I found out something shocking. I discovered that the guy who Maggie had told me about in the conference owned a rival mall. He is also an investor of one of the malls, the one
I printed out some more pictures. “I have it, the CCTV footage. Ashely sent it.” Pain said. I took it and as we looked at it, we noticed something. “something is off.” I said as I replayed the footage over and over again. “That lady said there was a truck parked outside but there’s no truck at all in this video.” Pain said. “yes and also it looks like someone tampered with the video. This isn’t the complete thing” I added. “whoever is behind this must have planned this for a while.” Pain said, shaking his head. “We have to identify the possible suspects for the fire.” I said looking at the pictures I had printed. I took El Malid’s picture and placed it on the white board. “he is my first suspect because he owns a very huge mall at the eastern bay and yet he owns a share in the one that just got burnt. Why invest in your competition?” I wondered. “Wait, what if the guy is just very ambitious? What if he sees profit in it?” Pain asked. “hmm. You are right though. I thought about tha
John walked back to his office really confused. “that day was the same day that Tony was missing wasn’t it? That was the same day that Tony left my son alone in his house.” John said, pondering. “but Tony told me that he went to see a friend that day. Why would he… something is not right. Trina was also feeling very panicked that day. A lot of things don’t just add up.” John said calculating. John was confused.I entered El Malid's tech company and he did have a lot of workers. I walked straight to the receptionist. “Good afternoon. I am Tony Jason. I have an appointment with Mr. Malid.” I said looking at the watch hoping not to waste time there. “ok sir. Hold on let me check.” She said as she picked up a cell phone and called El Malid’s office. “tell him the president of BRADON.” I added. She looked at me weirdly and said. “he claims to be the president of BRADON.” She said sizing me up. She dropped the call and said. “ok you may go to the first floor someone would be there to rec
Pain was shocked at his discovery. “I can’t believe that Malid was supposed to marry Maggie. Tony needs to hear this.” As he picked up the phone to call me but remembered I told him I will be busy for a while. He then continued to clip the extra information on the board. As I walked out of the company, my instinct told me to check the van. I waited outside for those where driving the truck to leave. They parked it and left. I walked towards the truck and looked through the truck to see if I could find anything. I then began to smell a strong smell in a particular truck. It smelled very similar to kerosene, but nothing was inside the truck. I then heard a voice behind me. “Hey, who are you? You are not supposed to be here.” The voice shouted. “oh I am sorry. I must have gotten lost on my way out.” I said pretending not to know where I was. “Thank you so much.” I said as I left. At this point I was very certain that Malid had something to do with at least one of the fires if not bot
“I will count one to three. You will transfer all the money that Maggie had lost from her bank.” I said with a more serious face. Malid looked at me scared. He was trying to reach a device on his hand. He finally did. “I won’t do any of that.” He said with a loud voice. The next thing I know a bunch of bots came and started to shoot lasers. Pain had to let go of Malid as we both tried to fight the bots. Malid was trying to run away. “Tony don’t let him escape, I will stop the bots.” Pain shouted. I ran after Malid who was trying to get into his car. He got into his car and I chased after him with the nearest car. I broke into the car and chased after the car. He was driving at a high speed and I increased my speed even more. I was able to corner him. “come down from the car Malid there’s nowhere for you to run.” I said as I got down from the car and hijacked him out of his car. “Why are you after me? you don’t even know me.” Malid shouted angrily. I took off the device on his hand
I walked towards the lobby to pick up the call. “Hello Sarah, how are you?” I asked. “I am fine tony. How are you?” she asked back. “I am good.” I replied. “oh ok. I was wondering if you would be free tomorrow?” she asked. I wondered what she wanted. “yeah, is there any problem?” I asked. “no nothing really, remember when I said from now on I was going to take care of you? Yeah I really mean it and since you are free tomorrow it’s a win, win. Can we both go on a second date?” she asked shyly. “a second date!?” I exclaimed. I was a bit surprised that she would call it a date. “Yes, a second date. I hope I am not disturbing something serious?” she asked. “no, no you are not. I don’t mind. I just thought that you wouldn’t be psychologically ready to go anywhere yet since what happened.” I replied. “yeah but a therapist has been seeing me and told me to even go out and not stay locked up.” She replied. “Yeah, the therapist is right. So how does tomorrow morning sound?” I asked. “Yeah,
