Hearing the words escape out of her mouth sent James some shivers down his spine. He pressed down the phone to his ears and paid rapt attention to every word that came out of her mouth.Anna felt the sudden silence which prompted her to speak up, “Are you ignoring me or what? Do you think I can’t involve the police in your sudden disappearing mode?” She asked him with caution ready to prove herself to him.James heaved out loud over the phone, from the sound he made one could easily discern that he was tired not after what he went through.Anna, who lacked patience burgled him with another question, “James, can you at least speak up for once and stop feeding me with constant silence?” She rolled her eyes and made a loud noise with her mouth.James lost control and bellowed at her unconsciously, “Can’t you get it! I’m at the hospital and I can’t think straight for now so let me be.” his heart started panting out loud as he spoke up without any restriction in his airflow.Anna staggered
Mason fumed with anger as his eyes rolled from one angle to another as he felt bittered and mad at Alex's confidence despite the heavy beatings he had given to him, he still proved stubborn. The thought of how Alex planned to poison his father and act as if he was innocent crossed Mason's mind and he became more furious with Alex. He yelled out in pain, “Why? Why did you do it? Why can't you be like other employees that work for my dad?”He angrily kicked the chair he sat on and dragged his feet slowly to where Alex sat down with his hands tied to the back of the chair. Alex with his bloody eyes struggled badly to move the chair backwards as he saw Mason approaching him with a weird face. “Not this time around, Mason. Please, don't damage my face before I finally get to see my family. I don't want to show them this damaged face because how will they be able to recognize me.”Mason paid deaf ears to his endless pleas. He cracked his hands together and took a stop immediately as he
Everyone in the secretary lounge suddenly went mute as they heard the loud bang of Anna's hand on the desk. They all gave each other glances while still maintaining their sight of Anna. “Are you all deaf? Why can't you say something? Do you think I'm like one of your employees?” She raised her voice and this time around it was louder than before. “Ma'am, with all due respect… .” The secretary tried calming her nerves but Anna cut her short by putting her words into her mouth even when she wasn't done speaking. “Point of correction, my name is Anna and not Ma'am. You can address me as Anna if at all you have anything meaningful to say because as it stands I believe you have zero talks.” she masticated her chewing gum in a loud tone. The two assistant secretaries who stood so close to the secretary dropped their jaws ajar as they were all shocked by Anna's boldness. “Did she just correct our secretary? Like the secretary of this company?” One of the assistants pinched her colleagu
The Secretary and her assistant kept a sharp gaze at Precious who was forcing them to say a word so she wouldn’t feel stupid since it was her voice she could only hear.Precious clapped her hands so loud in the secretary lounge to get their attention so she wouldn’t be the foolish one in there.“Will you guys keep looking at me without saying a word? Can’t you see that I need answers to the questions I asked earlier?” She raised her voice at the three ladies who stood right there.“Precious, you can go back to your office the security guards are coming to get her out of this place?” The secretary finally responded to Precious while her gaze was still on Anna.Precious nudged at her, “Excuse you? Who are the security guards coming to pick up? Can you please say something in a way that I can understand instead of beating around the bush?”“Something you could understand indeed. It’s quite funny that they don’t even rate you in this company. If I were you, I’d have quietly moved my ass a
Precious eyes were closely closing in as Anna grabbed her tightly from her collar down to her neck. She coughed out softly and cried out in a loud voice, “Anna, I'm choking.”“You haven't even choked in yet and here you are crying out loud. By the time I'm done with you, I don't think you'll recognize your face anymore.” She tightened her grip on her neck and pressed it down. Louisa rushed down to Anna and Pat her softly on her back, “It's best if you can just talk to her rather than wasting your time trying to shut her up.” Anna gave Louisa a condescending look, “After she carelessly ran her mouth on me? You think I should just release her just like that.” “I think you should push her aside. After all, you didn't show up here for her, right?” She asked her to be sure if she was heading to the right point. Anna cleared her throat, imposing a strong face on her, “Yes! I came here for Mason and not her. Time is ticking, I need to see Mason before dawn.” She cried out loud in frustr
The room's silence grew intense as eyes kept bawling at each other. Nobody plans to say a word as they use their eyes to signal to each other while watching things out in bizarre ways. The second assistant rushed to the other side of her secretary and held her hands so tight, her breath cleansing the surface of her secretary's skin. The secretary rolled her eyes down to where her assistant gripped her hand so tight. “Ma'am, I think you should call Micheal our boss.” her heart pounded so fast as she spoke to her. The secretary howled at her, “Micheal? Our boss? The one who was ridiculed at the sight of everyone. Or, is there another Micheal working in this company that we are not aware of?” The assistant secretary waved her eyes in embarrassment while she made use of her tongue to count her teeth. Her brain kept thinking of possible solutions with her eyes fixated at the closeness between Louisa and Precious.The assistant secretary turned back to the secretary and gave a suggest
Louisa looked closely at Precious, punching the keypads to input the passcode. “Unlocked!” The phone chimed out as Precious's picture pooped out as her wallpaper. Precious kept gulping down the saliva padding on her throat with her chest heavy with chunk loads of breath she was finding it difficult to release. “Haven't you gotten his number yet, Louisa? What exactly is keeping you from calling his number?” Anna's restless padded her with different shades of questions. “I'm working on it, Anna. I don't know where she has his number. It's not on her contact list.” Louisa responded to her with a weird expression on her face. Anna didn't have the time to be patient with, Louisa. She also wasn't buying the idea to counter words with Louisa. Hesitantly, she dragged the phone away from her hands and scrolled through the contact list on Precious's phone to be sure she had Louisa's words correct. “Mason! Mason! Where the hell did she keep his number?” She clunged unto the phone so tight
The atmosphere was calm, and the only thing being heard was the sound of the waving trees and the horns of different cars in their track lanes. Officer Ben took over the steering wheels of Andrew’s car. He wasn’t feeling the sudden silence of what was thought in the car as he expected that Andrew would engage him in a solid conversation rather than sitting behind and making it look as if he was the reason why his son, Mason didn’t show up at the police station as expected.He reached for the car speaker and turned up the volume to listen to any song that would pop out from the countless playlists which would change the tension of the room a little bit.At the sound of the hip hop music blasting in the car Officer Ben couldn’t resist the sweet melodious sound floating out of the speaker as he swerved his head from one corner to another slowly singing out aloud with his full hands secured on the steering wheel.“Can you turn off the song?” Andrew’s voice finally came to life as the bla
