TRAP“Luckiest pub isn't too far from here, it's just half an hour's drive away”, said Jeffery.When they got there, Brian and Jeffrey split up.Jeffery was in charge of business talk with Nick, while Brian chose to get lost in the crowd and observe.He walked around casually while monitoring the enemy's situation.To his surprise, he found that Nick was planning an attack.A number of patrons at the restaurant were carrying concealed weapons.They were being watchful, as if waiting for orders to attack.Brian decided not to inform Jeffery.Imagine that Jeffery would have been too terrified to discover that dozens of people were surrounding him.A large meal with excellent wine had been laid out in a private room off the main dining area.Although Jeffrey had been confident when traveling to the meeting, he started to feel nervous when he saw the four bodyguards standing against the wall.“You're very generous, Mr. Tomlins. I don't see this kind of wine often”.“Well then you'll have to drin

POISONHe picked up a glass of water and tended to wash the pill down, but the sound of the door being kicked open stopped him in his tracks.Brian burst in and ran toward the bodyguard. He grabbed him by the neck and threw him across the room as if he was nothing more than a rag doll.He landed against the wall and fell to the floor. Nick shuddered.Ignoring the pain in his body, the bodyguards stood up, but rather than rush Brian in retaliation they were taken aback, the man turned to Nick. “Mr. Tomlins”, he said, his voice shaking. “I'm no match for this man. Nobody in the room is any match for him.He looked at Brian as if he were the devil, not immortal.“What did you say?” Asked Nick incredulously, kicking the bodyguard back to the floor. “There's one of him and several of you. How many more people do you need?”Although he thought of Brian as a useless man, he knew that his fighting skills were amazing. He knew that even if he had a dozen armed men, Brian would still beat them. T

DEATH TRAP“But don't worry, I only want Samantha. And once I get her, the company will be all yours”. He said.“Where does your confidence come from?”Jeffery asked. “Why would a big company like Sea Cloud Technology listen to you?”“Why do you think Sea Cloud approached you?” Asked Nick. “Its Because I told them to”.“What do you mean?” Asked jeffery, But deep down, he knew the answer.“Wait, let's see”, said Nick. “I could show you.But there's something else I'd like to do first”.He clapped his hands loudly and the door opened. Four enormous men walked in. Jeffery was no expert, but even he could tell that these men were quite happy to kill Anyone.They looked like they could crush an ordinary man if he were an Ant. Jeffery thought. Nick had seen his reaction then he said smoothly. “Don't look so afraid.These men have gone through special training.As long as you don't struggle, you definitely won't suffer anymore than you need to”.He smiled and glanced at Brian.Once Brian was dead

HOSTAGEWhile Scott was on his way over, Brian called Stone to help him clean up the mess.The fight had caused more than Jeffery had anticipated.Nick watched them as they were talking.He was starting to panic. “Are they going to ask me if I can take them to Duke?” He thought.“I don't think even they realize how easy that would be for me”.Nick said quietly while the men tidied up the room and dealt with the injured men.He started to think about why they wanted him to help them deal with Duke.His mind went back to his last meeting with his father.As they were told they had talked about, he suddenly realized something.One thing stood out during what had seemed like an ordinary conversation.His father had mentioned that Brian had given him a headache recently. “Does that mean my father has a grudge against the man?. he thought.He decided that he needed to do some digging. “What are you planning, Brian?” He asked. “What can I do to help you deal with Duke?”.What he didn't know was tha

BILLY“Really, is everything OK?” Asked Brian.“Yes, she replied. “I'm only telling you this if you promise not to tell Samantha just Tell her it's a business trip”. “After, I'm going to visit my parents for a while”.Brian started to worry. He knew Samantha would get very upset if she didn't hear this directly from Catherine.He also knew she would see straight through these excuses. “OK, whatever you say.Let's go”, said Brian, not wanting to upset her by saying anything more.It wasn't his place to ask what was really wrong.He picked up her suitcase and took it to the car.As he put it in the trunk, he realized that leaving the city was probably the best way for her to deal with her problems.“You're in a hurry, " said a voice on the street as Catherine locked her front door. “Where are you going?”“Oh It's you, " said Cathrine, taking two steps back.She looks scared. “Billy, what are you doing here?” Said Brian, standing by Catherine.He gave him a cold stare. The last time he had s

MASKEDBrian had seen Gonzalez fight in several competitions over the years. In fact, last fall he watched him win 3 bouts in less than 10 minutes.Billy had promised Gonzalez that the job he had in mind would be simple.He told him they were just going to scare a woman and not hurt anyone at all.It was just as bad luck that Brian Maxwell had turned up when he did.They've looked at Brian and started to crack his knuckles.Then the lady inside the car “Now we talk”, he said.Catherine looked at him.He was so big that he made Brian look like a chicken.She was convinced that he would kill her best friend's husband.She made a decision. “Billy, leave him alone and I'll get back together with you”. She shouted in desperation.Billy stopped dead in his tracks. “Do you promise?” He asked warily. “Yes, but you must promise to let him go.This is nothing to do with him”, she said, thanking her lucky stars that Samantha had been too busy to witness such a sorry spectacle.“Let him go”, Billy laug

SUSPECTED“What's that?” He asked. “Why do you pretend to be a loser when you're so obviously not?” She asked.She realized that she was slightly envious of Samantha being married to such an amazing man, not that she ever intended to admit it.Brian saved her life more than once, and since her benefactor refused to say anything to his wife about his true abilities, she knew it wasn't her place to tell her either.Brian was surprised by the question.It wasn't something he thought about much.Not wanting to answer it, he changed the subject.“I need to get back”, he said as he got her suitcase out of the trunk.Samantha will kill me if dinner is not on the table when she gets home.Have a nice trip.Catherine stood on the sidewalk as she watched Brian's car drive away.As the car disappeared out of sight, she did not attempt to walk inside the terminal.She had no idea how long she stood staring into space, but it was an announcement calling passengers for her flight that intruded on her rev

ELATEDIt annoyed her that he was wasting his skills on low paying work.For the first time, she felt his lack of income was through his own laziness rather than an unfortunate absence of skill and intelligence.He opened his mouth but couldn't find any words to improve the situation.“Did you come up with this yourself?” She asked quietly.“No”, he replied impulsively.“Then how do you know so much about the workings of the company?” She asked.“I noticed some things from your notebook and paid attention when you told me about work, " he said, hoping it sounded like a decent explanation.“So you put this together from random scraps of information?” She asked.His heart raced as he tried to talk his way out of the corner he had backed himself into.“Plus, jeffery talks about business stuff with me a lot. He mentioned a method like this the other day, so I thought it could be applied here”.Relief filled Brian as Samantha's expression changed.She looks disappointed that he hadn't had a s

JELOUSYRoss shoved him aside. “You want me to give you another chance? “If I keep providing protection for you and your store, how am I going to explain that to Mr. Maxwell when he finds out? it's best for you to just shut the whole store down at this point, otherwise, next time He comes here, he's going to be offended that you're still here, and then you don't want to offend Mr. Maxwell”. He said to the manager. “I'd laugh if anyone else said that. But if it's what Ross thinks is best that would only mean I'm done for it wasn't easy to get to this point. I thought with Ross providing protection, I could do whatever I wanted. I never thought I would offend someone that even Ross is afraid of”. Ross just looked down at him, “Let me give you one last piece of advice”. He said, “try to be a good person from now on if you know what is good for you”After leaving them all, Laura was in no mood to continue their day out, so she and Brian got in the car to head home.Laura was clearly p

THE MANAGERBrian tilted his head thoughtfully “Ross? he asked.“you're not talking about Ross Gilmore, are you? the same guy I had a little chat with yesterday” he thought.“I think I left quite an impression on him”.“ you know Ross Gilmore?” the manager asked. “You could say that” the manager was surprised but then he saw Laura’s panicked expression clearly showed she had also heard of Ross or at least she knew of his reputation.“that's right,” he said “My shop is under Ross Gilmore’s protection so if you two both get down on your knees and beg for mercy I’ll consider asking for less compensation, otherwise you'll have to beg Ross for mercy” “and at this point, the compensation is the secondary”. he thought. just look how pretty that girl is, Ross, is going to be very happy when he sees her”. many people in the crowd had also heard of Ross and his reputation as a local thug they were not surprised that someone as Petty and nasty as the owner of this store had someone as vici

CHAOS Brian smiled at her but did not comment.The shop manager returned in short order with a Gray scarf draped across his arms. “Go on, Brian, Laura said. “Try it on and see what you think”.She lifted her hand, but the manager turned and held the scarf out of reach. “What?” She asked. “ Aren't you going to let us see it before we buy it?” The manager replied. “You've already seen and handled the other one.Isn't that enough?Except for the color, the two scarves are identical. Come up to the register and I'll get you checked out”.He smiled arrogantly. “They Caused the most trouble”, he thought. “They really need to put their grubby hands all over a genuine branded cashmere scarf.The rich ladies who come in here just point at what they want, pay the bill and leave without any fuss”. Laura's eyes flashed with anger. “Is that how you do business?” She asked. “If you don't try on clothing.How will you know if you like it or not?Maybe we won't like the feel of it.But we won't know until

OUTBURST Laura looked up from her plate of eggs and watched her sister confused. She glanced at Brian, who shrug. “I don't know exactly what's bothering her, but I can guess” he thought. “But I don't wanna talk to Laura about the whole situation with Brandy.That's too much to get into this morning”. “Hey, sis.Did you forget that Brian and I were going out for a fun day today? You should come along.Change your clothes. I'm gonna leave right after breakfast”. “No thanks”, Samantha replied. “I have some important things I need to get done today|”. “Is there anything more?Important than.Quality family time”.Samantha stood up. “You've got Brian, you don't need me”. She left the kitchen.And they heard her bedroom door closed a few seconds later. Gary Wandered into the kitchen, still half asleep.He looked from Laura to Brian. “Where's Samantha?” He asked. “I thought I heard her voice”. “Well, she's not here”, Laura said. “She's having a hissy fit or something”. “Come on Brian, let's

STILL IN LOVE“I'm glad to hear it”, said Brian. “If you'll excuse me”.With that, he walked over to the backstage door. He was determined to see Brandy, and Ross had held him up long enough.He could hear the sound of television through her door, it sounded like a cartoon and you could hear her laughing loudly at it. He Knocked several times before she heard him. “Come in, She shouted once she finally heard his knocking. “Ohh, it's you. Hello”.She walked over and gave him a huge bear hug.She squeezed him so hard he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said eventually. “Are you trying to kill me?” It took him a moment or two to disentangle himself from her grip.“You never change, do you?” He said, his words full of affection.He always spoke to her with the affection of an older brother talking to his favorite sister. Annoyed, Brandy pounded him on the chest.Always hoped that Brandy would stay as innocent as a child, but that was never going to be the case.Uncle Sam had already to

BRIANAs he realized that Brian had seen right through him, anger began to take over.He had a powerful urge to kill him.The slower and more painful death, the better.However, that was something that would have to wait.Murdering Brandy Hall's friend in a busy bar wouldn't win him any popularity contests. It was a plan he would have to save for another day. “Don't be so quick to criticize me”, he said. “You may have gotten away with it this evening, but I will get my revenge on you soon”.“I wouldn't be so sure about that”, said Brian.“But I can be sure”, said Ross, a smile starting to appear on his face. “I have a Big Brother and plenty of friends to help me.Next time you might not find the bartender quite so helpful”.“You're going to hide behind your Big Brother?” Asked Brian. “Why is he someone special?”The door to the bar opened.A man walked in.Ross smiled. his Big Brother had just walked in and his timing couldn't have been better.The man saw Ross and walked over.Ross began to s

THROW HIM OUTRoss was surprised that the bartender knew him, but he certainly wasn't complaining.He knew they had backup when it came to making Brian's life even more miserable than he had hoped. “He's the scruffy man over there”, he said, pointing to Brian's back. “He's trying to go backstage to see Brandy, which surely is a serious offense.My advice is that you have him evicted immediately”. “Well, we could always ask Brandy what she thinks”, said the bartender. “After all, she's the star performer.It's only fair that she should decide if she wants a visitor”.Ross was not impressed it wasn't the answer he had wanted to hear. “However”, continued the bartender, winking at Ross. “If she doesn't want any company, young Rossier gets to decide what to do with the unwanted visitor”.Everyone in the room held their breath, listening very carefully. “What's the punishment?” Ross asked one.Ross smiled. He made a choking gesture to the crowd, much to their delight.A huge cheer went up, sig

CODY’S BAR“Don't worry, maybe Brian will come with me”, said Lynn.Samantha looked at her. “Since when have they had such a good relationship?” She thought.But she didn't bother to ask Laura directly.“What's happening tomorrow?” She asked instead.“I thought you were busy”, said Laura. “But seeing as you're asking, it's a social event organized by the college. I thought you might have wanted to come with me”.She sighed.“If you're busy, I'll ask Brian. he won't mind coming with me. he'll make sure I'm OK”.It's sorted Laura, Take Brian”. Being her brother-in-law, she could go out with him without arousing suspicion.Samantha looked at her suspiciously, not convinced that Brian could keep her sister safe.In her mind, it was almost funny.Much more importantly, she was sure they were keeping something from her.Pretending that nothing was worrying her, she decided to go too, despite the pressures of her job. “I think I'll come too”, she said. “It'll be good to have a break from work”.Sh

UNEXPECTED His friends started to laugh mercilessly.By that time, Samantha was in earshot.When she heard laughter, she relaxed, thinking they had already resolved their differences and made-up.Deciding not to get involved, she stayed out of sight around the corner and listen.Has she gone around the corner, she would have realized that she had gotten it drastically wrong. Brian and Ross were staring at each other. Neither had any intention of backing down.Ross threw his cigarette butts on the ground and stepped on it. “I've had enough of your nonsense. It's time I taught you a lesson.Lesson”. Brian repeated questioningly. “A student?,I don't need to be taught a lesson.I think you've got it the wrong way around”. With that, he stepped forward and landed a blow in Ross' stomach”.Ross doubled up, completely taken aback by the punch.As he struggled to catch his breath, he couldn't believe such an unassuming looking man could be so strong. Started to feel nauseated and his vision st
