She dipped her hand into the water slowly and the little colorful fishes swam to her side.Flickers of camera shots flashed around the tourists as they took pictures of any and every thing they could find.Alex giggled a little as he watched her cringed when the fishes swam around her hand.He then looked over to Richard…"You should know better, this is a ploy," he answered, walking away.Richard quickly grabbed the pay slip from the cashier's hand as he raced to meet up with Alex."Hey… wait up man. You ain't gon leave me behind like a motherfucker…" Richard snapped,Alex rolled his eyes angrily as he rested his gaze on him…"Listen, right here, we gotta pull up smart… This is no country where you act like one fucking billionaire, you are just a normal random human walking the streets of this country. So brace yourself up and endure the reality of this mission…" Alex snapped,Priscy no"All of our money and shares had been diverted into the company's accounts directly and wanted to release everything out for one silly auction? Who the fuck does that" Dr Alfred was seen complaining. Seven men, neatly styled in European suits were seated at the edge of the long conference table, Edward seated at the middle of them as the chairman of the corporation."Your Father never gave us a problem, Edward. Then why the hell are you raising one now." Another man hinted,"You went to plan an auction without our bidding, giving a nonsense speech saying it's for a chance. This ain't the change man.. this is pure pride… take it Edward ." Edward sighed deeply as he adjusted himself to speak.."Seems y'all are getting this wrong and that's why I arranged for this meeting to come up. What I’m saying is this auction would ease off the competitive analysis for our favor, and not just that our revenue would grow since we're giving the public back in return. I know of course, this has ne
"What? A dog?" Alex screamed."What is it? Which dog?" "You wouldn't believe the motherfucker sent a dog to come pick us. What the heck!" Alex answeredJust at that moment, a stray dog jumped out of the bush and began barking at them.Priscy squealed slightly as she almost tripped, but was caught by Richard.The dog had a little placard hung around his neck…"Hey, come with me." Alex found it strange that he had to follow a dog, just because they wanted to meet a man."Hey man.. what's it with this dog…" Richard asked, pointing to the dog."We're asked to follow it, it seems the dog would lead us there.." Alex said,Priscy laughed as she wondered whether Alex said the right thing, but Alex's expression shows his seriousness.Alex drops his device into the car and locks it after ensuring the car was safe in the place they parked it."Hey… come buddy… easy, easy.." Alex s
"You said that you don't know much about him apart from his name. You've not seen or met with him before?""To be honest, I know more than his name sir. He seems to be from a wealthy background, I've made few friends with people who are close to the manager and I can tell that he has some extra hands working with him behind""Some extra hands.." Edward asked, surprisingly"Yes, but I can't really state their numbers now..""But is his name even what he calls himself to be?He looks somewhat familiar?" Edward stated"For his name, I can't state much but I can find out about that too.."Edward nodded slowly and thoughtfully, impressed by the confidence displayed by Chadwick in answering his questions. He could not have thought of anyone else possible to find out more about him, currently he is working on eliminating Julius and he needs fresh minds to work with"Alright, begin the investigation as soon as possible and get ba
****"Traced?" Priscy muttered, holding her wounded arm in pain."How the fuck were we traced, we tried our best not to let out guards down"."Listen, we have a lot to do now to escape, I sighted a building at the end of the stream there. Trust me, I'd hold these guys down, just take cover in there" Alex said, as he turned his back to leave.Richard immediate held his hands as he looked up to him, "I can't allow you to leave like that… we're together in this.." Richard mumbled,"Would you two stop this bullshit and let's get the hell out of here.." Anthony snapped,Richard immediately sighted two armed men coming into the cottage.They held their rifles closely as they checked through the whole room. The men quickly held their breath and hid carefully behind one of Anthony's shelf.Not too long, Anthony's dog came into the room and resumed barking at the men.One of the armed men turned t
"What sound is that?" Richard asked, trying to get where the whirring is from."Damn!! We've been traced." Priscy yelled, as she returned back to the room.Immediately, a chopper pulled up before them at the verandah as three men began spraying them with bullets." Get down … down.." Alex yelled, running back to the room.The bullets shattered all the glasses as these men continued spraying sporadically. Instantly the hotel alarm began ringing as everyone became alarmed of an intrusion.Alex quickly rushed into the room Anthony is in and helped him down from the bed as the bullet slightly hit the bed stand.After successfully destroying all the glasses and windows, the chopper flew away."We gotta move in now, the chopper has landed on the roof. They're trapping us in" Priscy said, in a rush.Instantly, they heard an explosion outside.A police vehicle has been blown away, it appears Talbot's men had su
Alex sent two rapid shots to the man standing in the door towards the entrance.He braced up himself as he walked towards the reception.He counted six men standing strategically at the reception waiting for any intruder…He gently hid behind the walls as he held his breath.Just at that moment, he saw Richard and Priscy crawling behind the door moving towards the building's main car park where Talbot was.He knew he had to act fast, else they'd be caught.Without mincing thought, he ran across the door, sending two shots to two men in the process.The other men turned to him as they shot sporadically. Like a martial artist, Alex skillfully rolled on the ground sending another two quick shots to two men.He quickly hid behind a table as he saw more men running towards the building.Alex frowned his face as over ten men came into the building again, he knew for sure Talbot had more than enough men with h
"You really would agree that you did a lot for us!" Richard said, trying to start up a conversation.Alex turned to face him as he squinted his eyes, "What do you mean?"Richard gave a deep sigh as he walked towards him, "No one would have done what you did except for a very dear friend, who really wants to see you live" he stated,"What I did? Pull up the crap bro, stop talking in parables" Alex replied,"Alex, you could have neglected me and went for Talbot when you had the chance, but you still protected me. This injuries were because of your loyalty, man" Alex giggled slightly as he sat up, he groaned slightly as his bandaged arm hurts him."You were more than a brother to me Richard" Alex began,"We had lived together for months, even though you were a billionaire, you never treated me as a scumbag. I understand what it is to be once poor and rich now, but you decided to stay true.And not just that alone,
Edward felt proud for the show of inspiration he displayed in his speech as he walked down the pulpit.The shouts and applause he got fueled his ego more as he was sure something good would definitely happen.He could feel the happiness of the audience and the eagerness in them.The time ticking is evident of his show of popularity and pride he had towards their upcoming innovation but the look on Zach his assistant's face wasn't cheering at all.He walked up to him as the people cheered him along, he motioned him to a more silent place as the people continued with their chitchatting."What's with the face?""There's a problem sir, a real one to be honest" Zach answered,"What problem? Are the guests not coming?" Edward gasped. That was the worst he was expecting."Sir! If it's to be the guests issue it would have been good. A more terrible thing is it…" Zach brought out his phone as he opened his social media h
