It felt as if something huge was dropped on Charles' heart and he somehow found it difficult to breathe.He quickly clicked on the news headline and then his fast beating heart turned into a normal paced one as he realized the situation wasn't what he thought it was.The explosion was actually from a kitchen near the bazaar and it wasn't an explosion that took lives, neither was it one that was very serious.“Oh, my goodness. The media really need to find a way to relay their news in a better way; in a way that won't make someone have a heart attack.” Charles voiced out as he breathed out to express how relieved he was.“What was that?”.”There was an explosion around a grocery bazaar. Not that serious.” Charles responded, still acting relieved.“Oh, i see. Alright then. I need you to sit and relax. I'll see what I can do and how fast I can be. If the arsonist contacts you, play safe with them, so they don't feel pushed to press the button.” Andrew advised.“Alright, noted. I will.” Ch
Charles looked down at Andrew's hand and noticed that he was holding something that looked like a flash drive.“Is that what you were trying to make?” Charles asked, out of curiosity“Yes it is. This is powerful enough to destroy any bombing that is connected to you. Come on, sit over here.” Andrew urged as he led Charles to a chair which was before a system. ''So, what are we to do here?’’ Charles asked, wondering what was next.“Alright, I'm going to get some information regarding the bombing related to you.”Then Andrew slipped the flash-drive into Charles’ chest pocket and then concentrated on the system right before him.Charles watched as Andrew did his job on the system while he tapped his fingers on his lap impatiently.After a while, Andrew pressed a particular button and then turned to Charles.“Done.” He voiced out with a smile.Then he moved the system closer to Charles and showed him the places which the bomb had been installed in.“So, the only thing we need to do is to
Charles was ready to finish Longman off once and for all and ensure that he would never try such again with him or anyone else, if he ever survives from what he’s going to make him go through.He watched as Andrew did his thing until he remembered James and Vera. He then called James who answered his call immediately.“Hey James. Nothing happened, right?” Charles asked, trying to be certain that the trouble was over.“Nothing happened, boss. How did you go about it?” James asked, out of curiosity.“Well, I somehow got it solved, and then found out that it was Longman’s doing.” Charles replied as he rose to his feet to move around a little.“What! Long man was involved in this?” James exclaimed.“Yes. He is the master mind and I’m going to ensure that he pays for everything. Have you reached out to Amelia and Vera to be certain they’re fine?” Charles inquired, trying to be certain that things were fine, now that the bomb has been detonated.“Alright, I’ll do that now.” James responded,
“Finally got his whereabouts, and that of his wife, and kids.” Andrew chuckled, and folded his arms while he raised his chin in pride and satisfaction.Charles looked towards his side, and walked towards him.“So, he has wife and kids and acts so wicked? Or does he think he would never be conquered?” Charles spoke as he looked at the map on the system.“Well, some of them who have been in this game for quite some time feel they are kings and queens, and know how to maneuver their way every single time.” Andrew replied.“Well, it’s time I show them that not every day is Christmas, and Longman is going to be a perfect example. Thanks Andrew. I’ll take it from here.” Charles appreciated him, and turned to leave,“Hey, hold on. You should take this with you. He’s a cunning man, so you should know he could have tried something else, and you walking right into his trap would be bad.” Andrew said as he handed over the mother controller to him. “Thanks Andrew. I really appreciate it.” Charles
CHARLES’ LOCATIONEveryone were now present, including Longman's wife and kid. “Mommy, who are these people?” The boy asked, in a trembling voice as tears ran down his face.“Just…shhh…. It's okay.” The woman hushed him gently and softly.She was also shaking as well and it was as if she was going to pass out out of fear and anxiety if those men kept standing.Charles had made his guards to stand and watch them as they were tied up. Then Charles walked in with James and Vera walked in a few seconds after them.“So, this is perfect. This is where we are going to work things out.” Charles said, with a smile on his face.“please who are you and why are you doing this to us?” The woman asked, with tears running down her face.“Tch! You should blame your husband for this calamity that has befallen you because I will ensure that he feels the pain he inflicts on people.” Charles said, with assurance.“Please don't do this to us. You can't do this to us. I know my husband must have caused yo
"Boss, she is now in the mansion." Kavon reported."Make sure you keep an eye on her." Lord Daniel instructed."Yes, boss. By the way, should we start, now that she is here?" Kavon asked."Not yet.""Alright, boss."After his meeting, he made a move to leave the company he had a meeting in, and at the lobby, he came across Michael. Seeing him always made him want to rush up his plan, but he was going to be patient, and work on it, steadily."Lord Daniel, what a surprise to see you." Michael said, with a smile.Lord Daniel stared at Michael, without bothering to give him a reply."Uhm… if you do not mind, I have something I'll like to speak to you about." He said, looking like he didn't mind the way Lord Daniel stared at him."And what's that about?" Lord Daniel asked."It's about the lady you purchased, at the auction."~He slammed his wrist on the table, in anger."You made me come to your office, just so you can splitter this nonsense?""Lord Daniel, please be calm. I felt it is so
VERA'S POVWhat the lady down the basement had said, was true. The war between the Mafia Lords was a rough game, and I was certainly going to be trampled on, while they are at it. Lord Daniel, making me a bait showed that my death was near."Kavon, prepare her for today's training." He instructed, and walked out of the dungeon.Now, I understood the reason he bought me for $50 million. He had seen my innocence as an advantage to his plan."Follow me." Kavon said.We got to a large pool, and then I noticed that there was another large pool."There could be a time when you could be in a problem, probably things got too rough, learning how to stay underwater, would be helpful as you could come across a situation that needs you to stay calm, underwater." My eyes widened in fear. Was he going to tell me to stay in this pool for a few minutes?"If you can't stay in this pool for up to three minutes, you will be bound inside the cold pool for three minutes, and try not to go unconscious, be
On the other hand, Charles and James had discovered that Vera was no longer where they left her.“Vera!” Charles and James both called out her name, beginning to get worried that something had happened.“Where could she have gone to?” James uttered, feeling really anxious about the situation.They had checked the CCTV to be certain if she had probably gone out of the house; probably she couldn’t mention that she had to leave, but even the CCTV didn’t record her leaving.“Oh, my goodness!” Andrew exclaimed, although his voice wasn’t loud.“What’s wrong?” Charles asked as he walked up to him in case he probably had an idea of what could have happened.Andrew didn’t say a word, but he immediately headed out to the room where he had shown them his tech products as first, and both Charles and James followed after him immediately, trying to understand find out what was going on.As Andrew got into the room, he headed straight for the door which was out of boundaries, and then he checked the
