(Author's note: You have been reading for a while now, go leave a review of what you've read so far.)However, Scott wasn't sure how he would react to the news or if he could trust him to keep it a secret. Scott trusted Simon, but he wasn't ready to tell him such a huge secret."I need to find a way to convince him to leave..because if he gets hurt or killed I'm afraid I might lose it." Scott pondered internally.The car drove through the streets for several minutes, until it finally pulled over in front of the police station. Scott pushed the door open and stepped out, glancing around the place.Tonia also got off the car and walked towards Scott, "This is his branch, right?" Tonia inquired."Yeah. Come on." Scott replied as he began to walk towards the entrance door. He pulled the door open and stepped inside.Walking into the building, Scott glanced around the place and could see different officers sitting down here and there behind their desks, and all of them seemed to be busy.S
The tunnel fell silent after Scott was done with his explanation, and all eyes were glued on him. After a few moments of silence, Chief Jim spoke up."So, you're saying you'll help us hide Barry until the search in the station is over?" "Affirmative." Scott replied instantly."And why would you do that?" Chief Jim asked. "You knew we still suspect you, and you chose to walk down here to prove that we can trust you." He added."Can you trust me?" Scott inquired in a calm tone.Chief Jim glanced at him for a few seconds before replying, "I don't know yet. But we don't have much of a choice right now." "Don't worry, it would work." Scott assured in a confident tone. "I'm gonna go get the car with the help of Jordan. Come on,man." Scott added as he began to walk towards the exit with Jordan beside him.The duo walked through the dimly lit tunnel, until they finally arrived outside. Without wasting any time, they began to dash through the open field.Cool breeze filled the whole place,
Wait! One last thing!" Jordan voiced out, causing Tonia to halt her steps and turned around swiftly. "What's the matter?" Tonia asked eagerly. "Uhm..can you do me a favor?" Jordan inquired. "Sure. What is it, Jordan?" Tonia questioned. Jordan let out a sigh before responding, "Can you borrow your car for a while?" Jordan requested, and a slight look of puzzle appeared on Tonia's face."Borrow you my car? Why? " she asked. "It's just that my car has been taken on patrol and I really need to use a car right. If you don't mind, I'll bring it to your place when I'm done with it or you can wait until I'm done. " Jordan replied. Hearing the words of Jordan, a slight smile appeared on Tonia's face. This was definitely a win for her. Having Jordan in her apartment at night was a huge win. "You promise to bring it over to my apartment when you're done?" Tonia asked after a few seconds of silence. "I promise. " Jordan affirmed, and Tonia smiled. "It's yours, then." She then ha
Scott sat there in the car as he watched Mrs Charlotte close in on him with three members of the special force beside her."Good evening, officer." Scott greeted while forcing a smile. Mrs Charlotte stood by the window, and her gaze fixed on Scott sitting inside."Good evening, sir. How's your day going?" Mrs Charlotte inquired."Same old, same old." Scott replied, maintaining the same smile and trying his best to not act suspicious."What brings you to the station?" Mrs Charlotte questioned audibly."Uhm...I came by to see my friend." Scott replied sharply."And may I know who this friend is?" She asked."Jordan." Scott replied."Jordan, the young officer?" Mrs Charlotte inquired."The one and only." He affirmed."Very well, then. Carry on. We are about to begin a search in the station." Mrs Charlotte remarked, giving the comrades beside her a signal, and they both headed into the station."A search? What's going on?" Scott inquired. He already knew the reason for the search but deci
Back in the station...The station's compound was filled with armed members of the special force, while Mrs. Charlotte was busy having a discussion with Chief Jim and the rest."I'm sure you know why we are here, chief?" Mrs. Charlotte inquired with a straight and emotionless look etched on her beautiful face."Of course. Please, carry on." Chief Jim affirmed. Mrs. Charlotte nodded before giving a signal to her fellow comrades and they all proceed to dashing into the building and began to search it.A few of them climbed up the staircase to search the top floor, while the rest of them remained down to search it.They searched every single corner, making sure no stone was let unturned, but still couldn't find him."He's not in there." One of the men spoke in a mechanical tone due to the mask he wore."Really? Did you search every single corner?" Mrs. Charlotte questioned."Yes, ma, we did." He affirmed sharply."Hmm.." Mrs. Charlotte nodded as she began to move forward while glancing a
Scott still stood there in his small room, his phone held up as he was busy making call."So, Scott, since we succeeded in escaping the wrath of Mr. Leeray, I and my boys have organized a party to celebrate. I will be inviting a few big shots to this party tomorrow night, and I want you to be there." Mr. Fernando informed."A party?" Scott muttered."Yeah. Just to chill, drink wine, eat, and have fun. I'll also introduce you to everyone and also announce your wedding that is coming up in three days time." Mr. Fernando replied."The wedding is in three days time?" Scott inquired."Yes, Scott. So far the wedding has been getting delayed by one problem or the other, but now I assure you that there won't be any other obstacles and you two will surely get married." Mr. Fernando bellowed.Hearing the words of Mr. Fernando, a cold smirk appeared on Scott's face. He couldn't wait to get married to Caroline. Once he's married to her he would gain full access to the mansion, making it easy fo
Jordan froze after hearing the words of Mrs. Charlotte, and his heart began to race. Even though Jordan was panicking, he tried his best to maintain a calm expression and not allow it reflect on his face.He knew if Mrs. Charlotte could see he was panicking she would definitely know that he was behind Sergeant Barry's sudden disappearance.After a few seconds of silence, Jordan finally spoke up."What could I possibly be hiding?" He asked in a cool tone while staring directly into the eyes of Mrs. Charlotte."I don't know..you tell me." Mrs. Charlotte replied."I am not hiding anything from anyone, Mrs. Are you saying that I know something about Barry's disappearance?" Jordan inquired."Maybe... maybe not." Mrs. Charlotte uttered. "You said it, not me. Let's get going, I don't have all day." She then turned to the entrance of the tunnel and began to walk inside.Jordan took out a small flashlight from his belt to brighten his path as he made his way inside the tunnel.They both entere
"You'll have to untie me so I can eat." Barry requested, his gaze fixed on Scott who had a look of contemplation etched on his face."Nice try, bro, but unfortunately I'm not stupid." Scott replied."Come on, just untie my hand I'm not gonna try to escape!" Barry requested."And you expect me to trust you? I'm not even sure if I'm allowed to give you food and now you are asking me to take a risk and untie you?" Scott voiced out."So, how do you want me to eat it? Are you going to feed it to me?" Barry inquired with a frown."I don't know. When you get extremely hungry you're going to get down and eat it the way dogs do." Scott replied before stepping out of the bathroom."Damn you, Scott!" Barry voiced out in anger. He shifted his gaze towards the plate of food sitting beside him, and he began to move it closer with his legs. After bringing it nearer, he knelt down and bent his back lower until his mouth was now close to the plate like a dog. He sniffed in the food before eating it.A
