Norton was about to reciprocate when he heard some sound. He didn't know what it was and wanted to check whether someone was around, so he went to the door of the house, slightly opened it, and was shocked by who he saw. Not who he was expecting. Now, he could be in real trouble. He stared at who it was for about some seconds, before finally being able to speak. "Are you getting here just now? Do you know how long I have been waiting for you? I told you to come really fast, if not, you wouldn't like what I will do because I'm not a man of patience, and you still have the audacity to come by this time?" He said with a raised voice. "I'm sorry. I had to arrange for things to be done so that nothing would go wrong. I hope I have what I came here for, and give you what you want," the person, who was a man, said. "This is the only time I will be merciful and forgive you. You should always be at my service whenever I need you, and nowhere else. Does anybody ever pay you like I do?
"I don't care about what losers you got in the past. Who do I need to attack?" The goon asked. "A young dude. I'm sure he's not as big as you, and he's smaller. But, there is a plan," Norton said. "A plan?" He asked. "Yes, a plan. We have to use a special method to get to him, or else, everything will go to ruin," Norton said. The man nodded. "Come in," he ordered, and what happened next was enough to leave Norton speechless. Some other men with a similar build like the man who was standing in front of him came inside the house. They were looking all jacked and stood still. "These are all the people I brought with me. They are about 5 or 6, and they will be with me on guard till when you order us to attack," he said. "You have really done a good job. I thought I was the one who would enlighten you on what to do, but it seems like you know everything about this. You are a pro in this," Norton said. "You don't need to praise me for anything. We have been doing things long en
"Here, have the money. I've given you the money before the work because I want you guys to do a very good job, and so I am trusting all of you. Do as I say okay?" There was no response from any of the goons. The head goon he gave the money to, began counting the money. "What are you doing? I can't trick you. The money is complete," he said. The goon nodded. "Indeed. Now tell us what we have to do. Kill him?" He asked, with intensity in his eyes. Norton knew that these goons were best for business and they knew exactly what to do, and he really appreciated that he had found men who could actually take on a mission. They hadn't done anything yet, but he was already finding it in his heart to trust them. "No no no!" He said. "You are not going to kill him. The only thing you need to do is beat him up so that he will learn a lesson. However, if the beating is not required then you will have to give me back my money and get away from here," he said. "Why would you call me for a j
"So are we going to hide in the backyard now?" The head goon asked, ready to take action. "Wait. Not now. He has taken a very long time, and I don't know if he's coming. I suspect that he is coming, but there is an urgent situation at hand that makes me believe that he might not come. If that happens, then you return my money." "So what happens if he comes?" He asked. "You all will go and hide, and when the time is right, I will call out for you all. Then, at that point, you beat him till he passes out," Norton said, with an evil smirk etching across his face. "So what do you want us to do right now?" He asked. "You always have to wait here with me, while I search and investigate whether he's going to come or not," he said. "Just wait with you?!" He growled. "Yes. Wait here with me. What else do you expect?" "Do you think we are here to waste our own time? I don't have time to wait. I hate it when I'm waiting and doing nothing. I am well aware that there are so many opportunit
All the other men were looking and waiting patiently to see what he would say, and Norton thought about it deeply. He tried to remember what it sounded like, how the sound was, the pitch, and what kind of objects could make the sound, and the conclusion was shocking. A sudden thought popped into his head, and his mouth fell open as he thought of what it could have been. "That was definitely the sound of… an engine. A car? Maybe… the target is here!" Norton said, with a sense of urgency. "What do you mean? I thought you said the target wasn't coming. What target are you now talking about?" The goon asked. "Are you crazy?! The CEO of the company is here. Think about it very well. Nobody lives around here and nobody even visits. If there is anyone around, then I will definitely know about it. If that is the case, then who do you think will have driven a car?" He asked. "Who? Maybe someone who lives around?" "You're such a fool. I told you that no one lives around here and you still
"I think it's the target, but I can't go out to check for myself. I can't send you out there either, because he might see you. Go and hide with the goons in the backyard. Make sure to come through that door," Norton said, pointing."Got it. But when are we going to come out?" He asked."When I tell you to. Make sure to sneak in, and without him knowing, use the stick to hit his head from behind, before you start the beat down," Norton said."Okay. I will keep that in mind. But remember to give us a good signal if you want us to come out and attack," he said."Yes. I definitely will. Now go," he ordered them, and they left. Norton smiled, sensing that something good was about to happen. He could already see himself becoming a millionaire again, and he couldn't wait to go and tell his father and mother what happened. He was already impatient to go and tell his older brother how good his act was and shave the money directly at him. Meanwhile, Alaric was talking with the commander thro
Norton, who was standing still, waiting for someone to appear at the door, was going impatient with every passing second. The more he waited, the more the urge was for him to go and see who it was."Who the heck in the world opened the door without coming in?" He said with disdain, muttering to himself. Alaric listened so that he could hear something but he didn't get anything."Nothing. I hear nothing. No one is inside the house, I think. I'm not sure if the criminal has come. What do you think I do now? I don't know if there is anybody inside or not, but I cannot hear any sound. Do you think that this could be something?”“I think you should go inside, young master. I'm sure that if the criminal wanted to attack you, then he wouldn't have used a cheap trick to do that. Maybe she's inside the house waiting patiently,” the commander said.“Okay, I'll do that,” Alaric said, deactivating the system. He looked at the wide open door and tried to peer inside, but he couldn't see anybod
Alaric smiled. “That is over, Norton. You have no right to insult me now,” he said.“When did anybody require rights to insult you? I can insult you whenever I want and nothing will happen to me. I know you are hurt because that is the truth and you don't like to admit it. I don't care what anyone says. I will do as I say,” he said. Alaric was beginning to wonder if Norton was even making any sense. He was looking at him with an expensive suit and was still asking stupid questions.“In case you don't know, I can buy you and your family,” he responded, to the surprise of Norton.“What? What did you just say to me right now? Repeat what you just said if you have the guts and watch how I will put you in your place now,” he said, already wanting a fight.“Don't worry, Norton. I'm not a coward anymore. Gone are the days when you wanted a fight and I refused to give it to you. Today is the day everything ends and I will prove to you that you are nothing,” he said. I think we have lots of
