THE TEST IS OVER, WITH RESULTS" However you want to get the truth, you can. But remember I'm telling you the truth. You can as well go see the files for yourself if you want, " Louisa said and relaxed on the sofa, biting her lower lip in frustration." Alright, then don't worry, I will take care of that," Grandma calmed Louisa down.She picked up her phone and dialled a number. She instructed the receiver to get her some recent files that Christine had worked on. After speaking with the receiver and giving her all the instructions, she hung up and dialled another number.This time, she told the receiver to get some cctv cameras fixed in the office and the manager of the hardware company without anybodys knowledge.After her calls, she sat down and heaved a sigh of relief." Don't worry, Louisa, everything will be okay. I will see to that, " Grandma said and sat into the sofa.That evening, Christine's secretary came over to Grandma Anderson's apartment.She was seated with Louisa in
ITS TIME TO MONITOR Christine stood up silently and shamefully left the living room.Sge could not look back. Grandma waited till after some time when her footsteps could no longer be heard before she spoke." I'm sorry for not believing you, Louisa. I was thinking she had turned a new leaf, but it seems I was wrong. I'll keep her under my watch and see to it that she takes the job seriously, " Grandma said.Louisa did not say anything. Instead, she nodded in the affirmative." Please, I will need you to go to the office on Monday and redo some of the important files with her and correct all the mistakes. Then, after that, you leave her alone to sort the rest out. I will keep a close eye on her?Louisa nodded again without saying a word.Grandma stood up and left for her room.Louisa laid back on the sofa and heaved a sigh of relief.She was glad that grandma had found out the truth for herself. At first, Christine posed to be an angel. Her attitude had made it hard for grandma to
TURN OVER A NEW LEAF On Monday morning, Louisa prepared to go to Christine's office.Before she could set off, Grandma had shown her in the CCTV footage that Christine was already at work and was trying to work on correcting one of the files.Louisa set off from the house and drove over to the office.She entered the office to see Christine still working on the file. She was struggling to overcome a particular problem and had done that over and over again.A sweat had formed on her forehead.Louisa stood at the door to the office, which was open when she got there.She looked at Christine for a while and knew she was seriously struggling." Good morning Christine," Louisa said, beaming with a smile.Christine looked up. Louisa was leaning on the door frame and smiling." Good morning, louisa, come in," Christine responded and looked back at her laptop screen." Can I help you with what you are doing?" Louisa offered ." Just a minute, please," Christine said without looking up.Lo
LETS GET INTO ACTIONLouisa took the road that led to Grandma's apartment.She drove for fifteen minutes before getting to Grandma's apartment.Grandma was already on her way out of the house when Louisa arrived." I will be back tonight," Grandma told Louisa.Louisa glanced at her watch. It was only a half past noon." Tonight?" She asked." Yes, tonight. I need to go meet some people. We have to prepare to meet Williams. He will arrive a little after midnight tomorrow morning.I need to speak with the boys so they will know what to do, " Grandma said.Louisa nodded. " Alright, grandma, see you then,"Louisa said and waved her goodbye.Grandma went to sit in her car, and before she could drive off, she received a call." Yes, I'm on my way. Prepare your men. I need to speak to them. And mind you, I don't need any weak men. I need strong men. I need fierce men who can execute the job for me in a matter of minutes. " Grandma instructed the caller before she dropped the call, not wa
CHAPTER 102Grandma went to bed as soon as she left Louisa's room.She woke up at midnight courtesy of the alarm she set on her phone.She took her walkie-talkie and switched it on." Now, can anyone hear me? It's already midnight. Is anyone awake?"Grandma spoke the words into the walkie-talkie and sent itWithin seconds, the answer came." Yes, Ma'am, we are up. We are done preparing our weapons. We are waiting for your commands. " The voice of the leader came in." " Alright, from my time he is going to land any moment from now, you have to get to the location now and you should take your positions as soon as possible" Grandma sent the commands" On it ma'am," the man said again.As the dawn began to approach, the group of thugs prepared for their nefarious mission. They hid in strategic locations along the route from the airport to the hotel, waiting for the signal from Grandma's insider.The road to the hotel Williams chose was a lonely road that led to the highway. That mad
CHAPTER 103Louisa went to her room and got dressed up.She came back to the living room after she was done. Just as she entered the living room, Grandma entered, too. Grandma called the househelp to the breakfast.Breakfast was eaten in silence and in exchange for glances.After breakfast, they both sat around the table without saying anything." Let's get going, we need to go see him now," Grandma said and stood up from her chair.Louisa nodded in silence and stood up, too.They both walked down the stairs and out of the house. They got into Grandma's car, and grandma drove out of the compound.Grandma drove on the highway. Everyone was quiet in the car.Police checkpoints had been mounted on various linkage roads and offroads." The police are everywhere looking for him. We will be in trouble if they find him in your property," Louisa said as they drove past a police checkpoint. " He is where nobody knows, I will not harm him either. All I need is to get the tape from him, and
EVEYTHING IS OVER NOW. WE HAVE WONGrandma and Louisa got to the house. They both went in and resorted to sitting in the living room.They sat there enjoying some snacks when Grandma received a phone call." Hello, …yes,... that's very good… Grt on the next available flight here… Alright.. No, I will meet you, just call me when you get to the airport… Kk..bye, " Grandma spoke on the phone.She dropped the call with a smile on her face."It is going to be over very soon." Grandma exclaimed Louisa sat up well with her face beaming a smile." Did he get it?" Louisa asked." Yes, he did. And he is bound to board a plane in twenty minutes. He will land here in three hours' time." Grandma said." Wow, you did it. Thank you, Grandma, thank you for standing by me, " Louisa said and heaved a sigh of relief. " You are my granddaughter, and I have to protect you," Grandma replied." But I have a question, Grandma.. How did you get your boys to…" Louisa could not finish her sentence as Grand
ONLY IF SHE KNEWIt had been a tedious week.Reuben and Annabelle had slowly adjusted to the stress at work, combining it with their personal and marriage lives.Thanks to the company and dedication they had given themselves, they were able to have a good time together regardless of the tedious days at work.During the course of the week, the couple were driving to work one early morning.Reuben was, as usual, playing a song, this time from a local radio station.In the middle of the song, there was a signal of emergency news. The music was paused, and the newscaster came on air.It was announced that a midnight robbery had occurred on a branch road, a few minutes drive off the highway.
