Wow guys, who do you think is the caller on the phone. Friend or foe? Do you think our Ric is about to face another challenge 🤔 love life or business? Drop your comments and please spare a gem too. Xoxo.
Back at the table, Ric's phone beeped with a notification after the man dropped the call.Ric read through the message in his mail through his smart watch and didn't touch his phone, he didn't take action immediately rather, he sat in his place and sent a text to Frank.Ric knew that someone was watching him so he rather sat in his place and looked around not giving them the satisfaction of seeing him react to a phone so they could not single him out."Thank you for the treat, I will leave first, I have to drop Lisa off before heading home." Camille said rising to his six feet three length.Lisa and Camille did not live in the same house despite their relationship. Camille did not live in his family's mansion, he had his own rented apartment were he enjoyed his freedom."We should really Thank Reynold and Roxanne for their kind gesture," Ric mocked and everyone l
Aaliyah decided to silently trail Ric because she still had her doubts and suspicions about his identity. Often questions that came to her mind were about his identity and where he had emerged from to earn her grandfather's trust so much."Where is he headed this late in the evening and why does he not want to go home with his friends?" Aaliyah sat alone in her car tracking the vehicle on her app and following the route the driver had taken.She was determined to find out who Ric was that evening and what he was up to. Just as she was still following the car, she noticed the ride had ended at a certain superstore.It took Aaliyah a little while to get there but when she did, she didn't find Ric there,"Damn it!" Aaliyah hit the steering wheel upset that she had lost track of him. Upset she pulled her car in reverse and the scream of someone made her step on the break instantly.She had been so dismayed that she had not looked in her rear view mirror to scan the area before attempting
Ric arrived at the location and it was still live. It was a lonely alley and he pulled up the fancy car he rode in several streets away not to draw too much attention while he played the role of knight in shiny amour in the dark night. Aaliyah was there.Ric did not go to her rescue because he felt a connection with her rather he had gone there because he knew the implications if anything happened to her on his account.Afterall she had stayed out late from home on his account and if something was to go wrong he would shoulder the blame because he was very bad at aportioning blame, he was used to taking responsibility for others, that was how he had ended up behind bars for six month."And who do we have here?" A female voice echoed through the empty hall where Aaliyah’s location had stopped.He looked around and saw no sign of anyone not even the speaker. It was normal for Ric to remain calm and c
Shirley was genuinely frightened and the picture of Ric with an impenetrable skin and excellent fighting skill still somehow plagued her memory.It didn't take long for Shirley and Dexter to start the process of their leave, that night neither of them slept at home for reason of the fear of Ric.Ric Maximillano but to them he was Ric Mariano. Ric easily dusted his attire and did not stress himself to go after Shirley, she was too easy if he wanted to make her his target. It didn't take him two kicks to break open the door and let himself out of the hall. He was on his way to his vehicle when his phone started ringing."Mr Maximi—" "Say," Ric was already quite impatient but the number was a familiar one so he accepted the call."We have news on the sniper. We are heading to the warehouse location we discovered." The caller explained other details to Ric and he felt the need to be there himself."Send me the location, I'll be there.""There's no need for you to—" The caller was still
Aaliyah rode in her car a little different, her heart had felt very light when she had been with Ormond but now she could barely explain the way she was feeling. She pulled over and rested her head in her steering wheel.Ormond had said not to stay in the shadows for too long but for Aaliyah her grandfather was a covering and she did not mind being under his protective wing."Still out with the stranger?" Aaliyah's phone screen brightened up with a text from Lisa. Aaliyah had earlier sent a message to Lisa to keep her informed of her whereabouts and she also shared her live location with Lisa so Lisa knew that Aaliyah was still out."No, I'm just heading home," Aaliyah responded before ending the live location stream.Sitting in her car, Aaliyah has several thoughts running through her head, was she really confined to living someone else's life?Aaliyah trusted her grandfather with her life but the one she had suspicions about was Ric. He was so ordinary yet he was not ordinary at al
Aaliyah was in shock, her body vibrated as she struggled to come to terms with the revelation her eyes beheld. This was the same man that she had decided to give a chance and entrust her life to.Curiosity got the better part of Aaliyah and she decided to follow him.It was a risky decision but Aaliyah had always been careful most of her life and there was never much of a difference so why not.The man had his back to her and Aaliyah did not want to jump into conclusion immediately so she kept her mind blank and clear with the possibility that it was just someone with the same physique and outfit as who she suspected.Aaliyah did not know much of him and all she could do was follow.While Aaliyah followed, a certain man at a distance had also been watching and following her.He also had a habit of keeping his eyes on her but when his trail led him to a warehouse, he was alarmed and he immediately changed his focus."They are heading to the warehouse, clear all evidence." It was a shor
Aaliyah was half conscious but she was still able to see where he took her, the blood smeared on her arm dripping down staining her cloth made her even more anxious but she tried to remain calm.She could not feel any pain on that arm."Where's your car?" Ormond asked when they were a distance from the scene."I - I parked it and the entrance of the park." Aaliyah's voice shook, a resplendent indication that she was scared. Ormond was careful, his arm felt weak but he endured and navigated his way to her car on the other side.Aaliyah felt sick in her stomach, she hated to see blood, she had a phobia yet she had seen it on her own skin."Where's your key?" Ormond kept on making small talk with Aaliyah to keep her conscious at least until he could get her to help and safety."Just keep your eyes open," Ormond said as he laid her in the car.Aaliyah's body trembled. She was still shaken by the scene she beheld."No, don't leave me, please." She pleaded with Ormond when he attempted to c
"How did they find out?" Ric slammed his fist on the desk and questioned those who stood with him.A lot had happened and Ric and his men had been forced to evacuate the vicinity immediately the warehouse was blown up."They are one step ahead, someone is following us or you," Lord Gullathova commented on response to the question Ric had thrown openly. Everyone else dreaded to reply as Ric's fury was at its peak already.There was no way they could k ow which party was being followed since they had all arrived through separate routes and at separate times. It was difficult to ascertain since the person and waited for them to be complete before opening fire."What if they have someone on the inside, right here amongst us." Johnson Rogers said.These where the only two people that dared speak in response to Ric.Ric was no Mafia Lord but his natural first and cold demeanor coupled with his very short fuse of a temper kept them walking on ice."The stakes were too high Tonight and it wa
