Gazing at her outstretched hand, Alex Waynee would only wonder if the both of them had met somewhere before.The situation was intense as Alex Waynee continued staring at the young lady in a daze, trying to shake off the feeling of déjà vu that swept over him like a sudden gust of wind. Nicole's eyes held a glimmer of recognition, as if they shared a secret that danced on the edge of his memory."Nice to meet you, Nicole," Alex finally managed to say, his voice slightly faltering as he shook her hand, a rush of curiosity mingled with an odd sense of familiarity.Nicole's smile was warm, her gaze unwavering as she spoke, "You look familiar... Have we crossed paths before?"Alex's mind raced, searching for any trace of her in his memory, but the elusive connection remained just beyond his grasp. "I'm not sure, but something about you seems strangely familiar, maybe I have seen you in a dream or something." he said smiling gleefully, a hint of intrigue coloring his tone.The bus jolted
The private lounge was silent, as Alex sank into his seat, his thoughts went on rampage.The phone was still etched to his ear even though Nicole had dropped the call about 20 minutes ago.Staring at the chandelier above, he only wished he could hang high above his life troubles and debacle.His gaze moved to the waitress, a young beautiful lady, who was now sweeping and packing the broken glass that broke as a result of him shouting out loud."I'm very sorry for that." His voice laced with concern and remorse as the lady continued doing her work.Staring at him in bewilderment, she replied, "It's actually nothing." Her voice was mellifluous, reminding him of Sandra Douglas, his fiancée.Just then his thoughts flickered, 'How on earth did Nicole even see me entering this private lounge?...Did she place a tracking button on me?' His thoughts went on rampage as he searched his pocket and touched his body, all in a bid to see if Nicole had in any way placed a tracking button on him.Stan
"Seems our friend Nicole was…" Eric Raymond's voice hitched as he looked around the private lounge to make sure no one was eavesdropping on their conversation.His eyes were laced with a mixture of surprise and anxiety.Staring askance at Eric Raymond, Alex Waynee said,"There is no one here, just tell me already, who is Nicole?" Alex Waynee said angrily, he hit his fist on the table. His impatience fueling a surge of frustration. "Eric, just tell me what you've found out about Nicole. I need answers now." His voice carried a mix of urgency and irritation, his eyes locked onto Eric's, demanding an immediate response.Eric Raymond took a deep breath, his expression grave. "Nicole...she's not who she seems to be, Lord Wayne. The information we've gathered suggests that might actually be on our side." Eric Raymond's voice was barely above whispers.Furrowing his eyebrows in bewilderment, Alex Waynee asked," What do you mean by that?...How could that even be possible?" His voice was laced
Her voice was vehement as she walked closer to them.The lady standing in front of them was a tall lady and fair in complexion.Her hair was perfectly styled, the black suit she wore did a great job accentuating her feminine assets, she looked nothing like a military personnel at all."Wait a minute! Did you just say expose John Paul?" Alex Waynee asked, his voice barely above whispers and laced with a mixture of trepidation and anxiety.The situation was intense, as Alex Waynee, Eric Raymond and Evans Raymond stared askance at each other, they turned their gazes to John Paul's direction only to find he was gone.Staring askance around the room, Eric Raymond spotted John Paul trying to sneak out of the room through the window."Behind us… He is trying to get away," Eric Raymond screamed as everyone turned to see John Paul attempting to escape through the window.With a surge of adrenaline, Alex Waynee rushed towards the window, his mind racing with questions about John Paul's sudden a
"Lady Margaret Wayne is inside her room, probably." Eric Raymond said,his voice barely above whispers.Walking out of the meeting room, Alex Waynee immediately walked straight to lady Margaret's quarters.Opening the door immediately, he met Lady Margaret Wayne sitting on her bed, young as a fragile porcelain doll, her usually vibrant aura dimmed by an invisible weight. Her chestnut curls cascaded around her shoulders, framing a face that held traces of worry etched into every line.Alex observed her as she sat, her slender fingers nervously tracing the intricate patterns on the bedspread."Grandma." Alex began, his voice gentle yet filled with concern.Startled, she lifted her gaze, revealing eyes that reflected a storm of emotions—sadness, apprehension, and a hint of something deeper, something she kept veiled from the world."Alex, is that really you?" she said, her voice tinged with surprise and an underlying tension."Yes grandma, it's me...it's really been long, I thought I wou
"Shit!"John Paul said, his voice vehement as he raced towards Steven Marcus, who was already lying on the floor."Why did he shoot himself?" Alex Waynee asked as he paced around the dimly lit room.Nicole walked across the room, her movements deliberate yet swift, as she reached for the ropes binding Michael Belmar to the chair.Cutting the ropes immediately, she asked, "Michael, Are you alright?"Her voice laced with concern as Michael rubbed his wrists, the relief evident in his eyes."I'm... I'm fine," Michael stuttered, his voice trembling with the residual shock of the situation.Gazing askance at everyone, he said "Thank you."Meanwhile, Alex Waynee hurried to Steven Marcus's side, his hands shaking as he checked for any sign of life.The room was tense with a heavy silence, each breath held as they awaited any indication of Marcus's fate."Is he...?" Eric Raymond's voice trailed off, his gaze fixed on the scene unfolding before them.John Paul, still reeling from the sudden tu
Standing up abruptly Alex Waynee rushed and held Lady Margaret Wayne before she could fall to the ground.Moments later…Alex Waynee is staring at lady Margaret Wayne as she lays in the hospital bed."What could have caused this to happen?"Alex Waynee's voice was barely above whispers as he stared askance at the doctor in charge."I assume it's stress or some sort of shock,"the doctor said, checking Lady Margaret Wayne's vitals. "She was quite distressed when she came in, and the suddenness of it all might have triggered this."His voice was barely above whispers.Alex Waynee's brow furrowed, concern evident in his eyes as he looked at Lady Margaret Wayne lying unconscious."Is she going to be alright?"Alex Waynee's voice was laced with concern and anxiety.The doctor nodded, offering some reassurance. "We'll do our best. She just needs some rest and monitoring for now."His voice barely above whispers yet dripping wet with hope.Turning to Eric Raymond and John Paul, Alex Waynee'
"This can't be…I told you guys that the car parked outside was suspicious and none of you believed me."Alex Waynee said as he stared askance at everyone in the meeting room.The situation in the room was intense and palpable.Pacing around Alex Wayne gazed at John Paul and the whole team.His heart raced vehemently."Is there a chance we can find the video footage of the person who entered in and out of the car?"Alex Waynee asked as he paced around the meeting room."No, Lord Alex Wayne, the intruder was smart enough to disable the cameras covering the front of the mansion." John Paul replied, his voice barely above whispers."This is just great…this is just great." Alex Waynee said as he walked towards the door."Eric Raymond, Please come drive me home."Alex Waynee's voice was barely above whispers.After visiting his grandmother, Eric Raymond drove Alex Waynee home.Silence enveloped the whole car as they both journeyed back to Sandra's.Closing the door vehemently, Alex Waynee
