"Yeah, my father is Mayor Campbell." Tonia responded as she walked towards the corner of the living room to get a bottle of wine for Scott."Wow, I didn't know you were the daughter of the mayor." Scott muttered."Am I supposed to be going around announcing he's my father?" Tonia inquired jokingly."That's not what I meant..I am just shocked that the daughter of the mayor would choose to walk as a secretary when you already have all what you need right here." Scott remarked audibly while walking forward slowly with his hands still tucked inside his black trenchcoat."I chose to work there mostly because of boredom. The company is the only place I go to because my father never takes me anywhere." Tonia replied as she poured red wine into a glass and walked towards Scott who already sat down on a sofa."And why is that?" Scott asked."My father is...ashamed of me." Tonia responded."What?" Scott blurted out in shock. "Why would you say that?""Because he said it himself. He hates me bec
(Meet us at the Old Shallow Bridge A. S. A. P and bring Sergeant Barry's cellphone along. {Jordan}) Scott read through the text with his heart racing in anger.He made it clear to them that he doesn't want anything to do with Barry's case the moment they left his house, and he also said in his text that they should come get the cellphone themselves at Tonia's apartment. But even after all that they are still asking him to come to the same bridge they plan on killing Barry."What have I gotten myself into?" Scott lamented internally as he stood there tapping his feet on the floor."Is everything okay, Scott?" Tonia noticed the worrisome look on Scott's face and questioned."Oh, uh, yeah, everything's good." Scott affirmed."Are you sure? You seem so worried." Tonia doubted Scott."I'm fine, Tonia." Scott replied sharply. "But I must leave now." Scott informed as he wore his black cap on his head and tucked his hands back into his trenchcoat."What? Why?" Tonia blurted out in shock."S
"Well, I've known Jordan since he was a kid." Chief Jim whispered back."He's still a kid though, just be more specific." Scott uttered silently.Chief Jim sighed before responding."I met him during the gang warfare. He had just lost both parents and siblings to the warfare, so I had to save him and took him under my wing. I basically taught him all he knows about being an officer." Chief Jim spoke in a hushed tone.Hearing the words of Chief Jim, Scott nodded and he didn't bother asking further questions. He remained there in silence with looks of contemplation evident on his face.He shifted his gaze towards Jordan who was still dragging Barry's body to the edge of the bridge. He finally arrived on the edge and tossed him off the bridge.A loud splashing sound was heard as Barry's body landed inside the river and began to float away slowly. After making sure he was out if view, Jordan turned around and walked back to the duo."Done. You see, I told you there's nothing to be worried
Scott finally arrived in front of the office and he pushed the door open and walked in. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SIMON!" Scott shouted at the top of his lungs. His words caught the attention of everyone there in the office, and they all shifted their gazes towards him in disdain.Simon rose from where he sat gleefully and made his way towards Scott."Thanks, man." Simon appreciated as they both shook hands."Where do you want us to celebrate your birthday, bro? Name it and we'll go there after work hours." Scott offered with a smile."Really? It's fine I don't want you spending all your life savings in one day." Simon interjected."It's fine, Simon. It's your birthday for crying out loud. We've all been through hell these past few days, and there's no telling how tomorrow might be. We need a break to get our mind off things and relax." Scott remarked.Simon nodded his head with understanding after hearing the words of Scott."Alright, then. I already have a place in mind. Don't say I didn't
"Is everything okay, Miss?" Mr. Leeray questioned, his voice extremely deep and menacing, and with every word he spoke smoke oozed out from his mouth."It's truly him..." Mrs. Charlotte gulped down hard. "It's. Mr fucking Leeray." She pondered internally, her heart racing with both anger and fear as she glanced at Mr. Leeray."Charlotte, what's the matter?" Mr. Dominic questioned right where he sat after noticing the way Mrs. Charlotte glared at Mr. Leeray.Hearing the words of Mr. Dominic, Mrs. Charlotte got snapped out of her thoughts and shifted his gaze towards him."Oh, uh, I'm sorry. I'm just surprised that a man like Mr. Leeray is here in the headquarters." Mrs. Charlotte answered back. "What brings you here, sir?" She inquired."I came here to talk business." Mr. Leeray informed as he blew out smoke from his mouth."Business? What business?" Mrs. Charlotte questioned."I have already informed Dominic about what I want and the deal has been stuck. But since you arrived late I d
"Let's forget about that for now. Tell me, why are you back so early?" Mr. Dominic inquired."It's about Barry...he's missing and we will need the advanced tracker to locate him." Mrs. Charlotte answered back."Sergeant Barry is missing? Since when?" Mr. Dominic questioned with a slight look of puzzle."I have been trying to call him but he hasn't been answering, neither is he returning any of my texts. It's been more than twenty four hours now and still nothing...meaning something is definitely wrong." Mrs. Charlotte replied sharply."That's strange. Sergeant Barry isn't a kid, I'm sure he knows what he's doing. He's probably wasted in a club or hotel somewhere with women, don't worry about him." Mr. Dominic remarked with a less concerned look as he returned back to his desk.Hearing the words of Mr. Dominic, Mrs. Charlotte's heart skipped a beat and she gulped down saliva. The idea of Barry cheating on her with whores in a hotel made her blood boil in anger, but she couldn't just ju
"You and me, Tonia, it would never work." Scott spoke coldly, and Tonia's heart sunk instantly. "You deserve better." He added before letting her go and walked towards Simon after noticing him stepping out of the building.Tonia was dumbstruck after hearing the words of Scott, and she just stood there speechless as she watched him leave. She couldn't deny the fact that she already fell in love with Scott after the little time they spent in her mansion.Scott was able to make her smile and laugh even though it has been a long time she laughed. She once had a crush on Jordan, but after realizing Jordan was only playing with her feelings and only using her, she lost every bit of affection she had towards him and was now interested in Scott.But now, it seems she would have to lose Scott too after hearing the words he just said. She couldn't quite understand what he meant by she deserves better.Was it because he was only a cleaner and she was the daughter of a wealthy mayor? Tonia wasn'
"Of course. Why would I miss my best friend's 24th birthday." Tori replied, hugging him back.Scott just stood there with his expression darkening as he glared at Tori's face in disdain.They both hugged for a few more minutes before Tori finally pulled away."So, where are we going?" Tori asked."Sunshade Fun and games park. We would play different games, eat at the restaurant there, and after that we can go see a movie or something." Simon informed. "Are you sure you can pay for all that, Scott?" Simon then shifted his gaze towards Scott who had been in silence the whole time."Yeah, don't worry." Scott affirmed."What's with both of you? Are you two fighting?" Simon noticed the way Scott and Tori has been glaring at each other ever since she arrived, and he couldn't help but suspect something must have happened between them."No, we are not fighting, Simon." Tori responded with a smile."Well, aren't you gonna hug each other or something?" Simon questioned."Nope, I'll pass." Scott
