Triumph Of The Belittled Son-in-law CHAPTER 166
“Arianna, this is why I told you earlier that I will give you the full details later. I can’t start explaining everything to you because I will have to go into detail which takes time. What I can do is to tell you when I am done.”“And why don’t you hire assassins? I could help with that and it would be so much easier hiring real thugs to do that as long as you can pay them,” Arianna suggested.For a brief moment, Sarah thought about the idea of having assassins do what she needed to do at Doctor Lopez’s office but she changed her mind because even if she was able to render Doctor Lopez silenced, she still had to recognize the antidote. It was best that she did it herself then because she at least had a graphic description of how it was supposed to look like.“Don’t worry about hiring assassins. I would go about the task myself,” Sarah responded after having a lot of deliberation in her head.Arianna’s resolve crumbled with a weakening surrender. “Hmm, I just hope that this is not the

Anyway, as much as she knew that it was going to be easier doing that in his house, she always knew that the antidote which was her main goal wasn’t going to be in his house. He gave a hint to that effect on the day that Lady Winston was injected with the virus.Sarah’s gaze was a clouded doubt and her changing features were a troubled canvas that revealed her inner conflict. The more she tried to keep her composure, the more she struggled woefully at it.“Are you visiting Doctor Lopez on behalf of Paul?” The secretary asked. “We haven’t received any directive from Mr. Leonard that you were going to be coming.”Sarah’s fingers twitched with a nervous energy with her posture unsettled. She had to say that she was from Paul, she thought. If she said she came on her own accord, she would be inviting a flurry of other questions that she might not be able to answer. Even though any answer she gave was always going to carry some risk, it was better to take the safer option.“I was directed

“It’s been a project I had been working on for many years. That’s why if you examine Lady Winston's state, it’s very strange - one moment she is is still and unresponsive while another moment she is convulsing with so much torment.”Doctor Lopez was having fun hyping himself up. His gestures were a lively dance and physical manifestation of the playful enthusiasm that coursed through him. “I think I am a little too good with my mixtures. You know, there is something I am working on. It’s just a little secret,” he said, his lips twisting as if he didn’t want to walls to hear him.“There is a combination of organic and ionic compounds that if mixed in a particular way and you inject it into yourself, you might not need food at least for a week, haha.”Doctor Lopez’s laughter was a triumphant cackle and a bellowing roar in celebration of his achievements. “I am working on that mixture and that would be yet another wonderful research of mine. I can’t leak some of these things to the outs

“But we can’t just fall into their hands just like that,” Doctor Lopez argued, his breath hitched with a gasping struggle as he fought the choking grip of his panic.“We are already in their hands at it stands, Doctor,” Sarah spoke.“I will stay here. I won’t come outside. After all, I like it very much in my new office,” Doctor Lopez suggested, his voice tinged with an intensity of his panic.“If I could get to you here from my office in just a few minutes, think about how much it would be easier for them to get to you?” Sarah reacted, her posture a rigid dominance as she sought to pressure Doctor Lopez into submission.Doctor Lopez’s face was a puzzle of bewilderment and uncertainty as he darted around nervously.“As far as I am concerned, I am not ready to let them get me again. I am ready to surrender everything to them as long as they would leave me alone. I advise that you do the same too or else, they are coming to kill us. I have a baby who I kept at the daycare who still need

She quickly swallowed her embarrassment and pointed the gun the right way. After all, it didn’t seem like Doctor Lopez had noticed it - he was too scared to have noticed it and even if he did, he didn’t have the energy to jolt out of his shock.Sarah leaped away from her seat quickly and took a few steps backward but her gun was still pointed directly at Doctor Lopez and her eyes were narrow with a deadly squint of dread. She had to be as rigid as possible to get Doctor Lopez scared enough to hand over the antidote.Sarah moved her body like the stealthy cunning of a snake as she tracked the doorknob and locked it before someone burst into the officer and alerted the security that there was an intruder.The thoughts of how she would escape such a big building if peradventure she shot Doctor Lopez and other employees heard it was creeping into her mind but she waded it off before it gained more hold on her. It wasn’t the time to start thinking about all of that. If there was a complica

She was too late when she landed on Doctor Lopez, their eyes stuck to each other in tension as it was as if both were waiting for each other to make the first move again.Sarah knew that even though Doctor Lopez was in his 50s and perhaps not as vibrant as when he was younger, there was a chance that she could still not square up to Doctor Lopez in physical combat.Sarah retraced her gaze to the bottle containing the antidote that Doctor Lopez flung to the ground. She realized that the bottle didn’t break after all, neither did the cover removed from its neck. There was no point engaging in a tussle with Doctor Lopez, she thought.Her posture was contorted with menace as she flailed her arms and darted toward the bottle to pick it up. That was her aim but if she could leave Doctor Lopez’s office without having to put a bullet in him as he had earlier tried to do, that would be even better.Doctor Lopez wasn’t going to have her get it so easily. He forbade in his mind that Sarah would

Shit! How could she forget such an important thing? She had just left evidence of her offense right inside the office. There weren’t many people around and everyone seemed to have either left their places of duty or were stuck to their desk doing extra work. It might be a smooth operation if she went back. Should she go back to pick it up? She asked herself.The gun being there was going to leave a trace.She heaved a sigh of rejection of the idea. She wouldn’t go back, she reasoned. What if she went back and someone caught her? That would be disastrous. She had the antidote in her hand and she managed not to kill Doctor Lopez so that was some progress at least, she thought.The gun was not hers and she would have some exolainatuin to do to Arianna but she would also need to explain some things to her. Now, that she thought about it, Arianna probably made sure that there was no bullet in the gun and lied to her, taking advantage of her ignorance and inexperience in such issues.Perhap

It dawned on Paul that his hunch was correct. Two out of the Kazitanis operatives sent to get the truck past the border had been eliminated. That was very positive for him, he reasoned.That meant that there were only two people left for him to deal with. He could surely take them on, he thought. At least, that felt like a more reasonable bout than having to go against four peopleBut, all of a sudden, his phone rang. Sh!t! Paul jolted in a panicked alarm as he scrambled to silence the intrusive sound, his eyes wide with terror as he realized that there could be consequences for that.He quickly turned the phone to silence but noticed that it was his ex-wife, Rose who was calling him.“Wait! Did you hear that sound?” Zilinzky asked, his hands hung in the air as he tried to get a grasp of the situation.“Yes, I heard something like a vibration or the ringing of a phone somewhat. Where could that be coming from?”“How am I supposed to know, Hoestes,” Zilinzky spoke. “We can't know unti
