"Hello," Barry said in a husky voice, as he answered"I have been waiting for you to call," He continued."Is the job done?" He added."Good evening Barry," Roxanne said."The job is done, everything went according to our plans," Roxanne added."I need to know how everything went," Barry said."Tell me everything," he said, curiously.Roxanne explained how the night went to Barry and how Amanda had to run away from the party halfway.Barry was pleased at the news as he smiled as he heard Roxanne talk on the phone."You did a good job," Barry said, smiling."Everything went exactly the way I planned it," he continued."Well done, Roxanne," he added."One more thing Barry," Roxanne said."The lady who carried out the job is demanding your contact," Roxanne continued."She wants direct access to you, she wants to be able to talk to you directly," Roxanne added."You know I don't mix business with pleasure Roxanne," Barry said in a harsh tone."She can't have access to me," he continued.
The drive home was quiet as both friends kept quiet. Roxanne starts to feel a little guilty about what happened at the party as she drives Amanda home.She felt she might have gone a little too far by humiliating Amanda like that.Roxanne starts to have an internal turmoil questioning her decisions.She wonders if Amanda would ever be able to forgive her if she found out she was working with Barry.She thought of how she had broken her friend's trust forever just because of money.She then looked over to a visibly sad Amanda and decided she had to do something to lift her mood."Let me make it up to you Amanda," Roxanne said, facing Amanda."It's fine Roxanne, I have had a long day, I just need to go home and rest," Amanda said."Listen to me," Roxanne said gently."Let's take a detour and have a makeover," Roxanne continued."It's going to make you feel much better," Roxanne added."It's late Roxanne, Lawton would be worried," Amanda said."Call him now and tell him you might come ho
Amanda wondered which surprise Roxanne had for her after the night they had just both had."I'm taking you to one of my favourite spots in the city, you will love it," Roxanne said excitedly, looking at Amanda.Roxanne started to drive Amanda towards an ice cream store down the street.Amanda smiled as Roxanne parked her car in front of the ice cream store.The ice cream store was a small store in front of a restaurant which had a small space with chairs for their customers to sit.It was the perfect place to get fresh air as you could see the sky directly and enjoy your ice cream.She figured Roxanne must have brought her here to have ice cream."We are here," Roxanne said smiling as she pointed towards the ice cream store."They have the best ice cream in town," Roxanne added.Amanda smiled as she rushed out of the car and walked towards the ice cream store.Roxanne soon joined her as they both ordered different flavours.Amanda opted for the sweet and fruity taste of the strawberry
"I'm taking you home," Roxanne said, smiling at a tired Amanda.The ice cream store was a few minutes from Amanda's home and they soon got home.Roxanne drove inside Amanda's house and parked her car.She decided to stay a little while with Amanda to make sure she was fine before going home."Aren't you going home?" Amanda said as Roxanne got out of the car."I'm going to stay for a little while," Roxanne said.They then both walked to the door to find it closed. Amanda was surprised as she already called Lawton who said he was back from work."Lawton isn't home?" Amanda said, looking at Roxanne in surprise."I called him and he told me he was home," She added.Roxanne then suggested she call him as he might have gone back out.Amanda picked up her phone and dialled Lawton's number.She then told him she just got home now and asked where he was."I had to rush back to work, I will be back soon," Lawton said as he answered.Amanda then asked him not to stay out too late before hanging
"Roxanne should be home by now," Amanda said, as she sat on the bed and looked at Lawton who was changing into his nightwear."Should I call her," Amanda continued."I'm worried about her," she added, picking up her phone."She will be fine Amanda, she will call you soon, I'm sure she's fine," Lawton said, walking towards Amanda."Stop worrying Amanda," Lawton added.They then both lay down on the bed ready to sleep.Amanda thought of telling Lawton everything that had happened at the party but she decided to tell him the next day as he must be so tired from work.She then remembered the brown envelope and stood up from the bed to hand it over to Lawton.Roxanne was almost at Amanda's house but she continued to panic as she was scared.She soon got to Amanda's house and rushed out of her car bolting.She ran towards Amanda's door while looking back to see if she was being followed.She then started to knock on the door frantically, scared the robbers might be on her trail.Amanda who
Roxanne and Amanda got into the room and both slept immediately, tired of the event of the day.Morning soon came and Roxanne was woken up by the sound of Lawton's alarm.She looked over to Amanda who was still sleeping and stood up from the bed ready to leave.She was about to open the door when Amanda called out to her."Good morning Roxanne," Amanda said."Good morning Amanda," Roxanne said, walking back towards her."I didn't want to disturb your sleep," Roxanne said."Are you leaving now?" Amanda asked."Yes Amanda," Roxanne answered.Amanda then asked her if she was okay after Yesterday's incident."I'm fine now Amanda," Roxanne said."Okay, I'm glad you are fine," Amanda said, standing up from the bed."I will make you something to eat," Amanda said."No Amanda, I'm fine," Roxanne said."Please go back to sleep," she continued."Do not bother yourself," Roxanne added.Amanda then hugged her and thanked her for making her feel better the previous day."I should leave now," Roxan
Lawton's anger started to fade away as he started to feel sad for his wife and what she might have gone through.He knew Amanda to be someone who hated Embarrassment and humiliation and wondered how devastated she must have been the previous night."Are you sure you are fine Amanda? You can tell me if you aren't," he said.Amanda assured him she was fine and he shouldn't worry about her."You don't have to make breakfast Amanda," Lawton said looking at his wife."I'm fine Lawton," Amanda said."You should hurry or you will be late to work," Amanda said, before walking out of the room.Lawton then checked his phone again to see if he had received a message from Smithson.He wondered why Smithson hadn't sent him a text yet as he walked into the bathroom.He knew he had to speak to him immediately.Lawton showered and started to get ready for work after he was done.He threw on a pair of black pants and a white T-shirt.He then sprayed his favorite fragrance and brushed his hair before w
Lawton looked at the envelope in shock as he walked out of the house.He had tried to hide his expression as he didn't want to get Amanda worried but he was scared.He wondered if he should have told Amanda about Logan's real identity.He checked his phone again and started to get worried as he still hadn't gotten an update from Smithson.He wondered if she should put a call across to him but decided to wait a little longer.Lawton continued to get more scared as he made his way to the office.All he could think of was the envelope and what was going on in Logan's head.He wondered what he was planning and why he was following his wife around.Lawton knew there was no way he was just appearing to her, he knew he was following her.He then continued to get scared about his wife's safety and decided to call her.He brought out his phone from his bag and dialled her number."Hello Lawton," Amanda said as she answered."Did you forget anything at home?" Amanda added."No baby, I just want
