2024-05-26 16:00:20Antonella was fuming, how could Enzo disrespect her like that.
"We have a visitor; I trust you know what to do." Carlos drags his cigar puffing the smoke in the air, his shoulders sagged and his breathing slow. "What visitor?" Antonella brows furrowed. She was not really interested in anything right now, the images of Enzo and Georgina having a good time irritated her badly. "You seem edgy, who triggered my baby girl? Say the word and I'd have their head on a spike soon." Carlos declared with a menacing tone. "Father. You flatter me." Antonella responded her mood a bit lighter now. Carlos tosses a file containing personal information of someone. "General Danjuma." Antonella mumbled, her eyes narrowed. "What's his deal?" “He needs our help and he is willing to offer a lot of money for it.” Carlos chuckles and put his cigar down on the ashtray. “We can’t agree to this!” Antonella protested. “This means we would aid them commit genocide.” Antonella kept flipping through the detailed file. “Who cares? As long as he keeps our pockets full, I’d slaughter every rebel down to South Africa if I have to.” Carlos scoffs while he leans back to his chair. “Their base is in West Africa. I don’t think they have the facilities to house our technology.” Antonella said, she didn’t feel too good about helping a war criminal slaughter a group of defenseless rebels. “All that has been taken care of my dear. Your father is a genius.” Carlos laughed. “So when are we leaving and how many men are we going with?” Antonella asked, her focus precise. “Oh dear, you don’t have to do anything, I will assign the task to Enzo, he would have 100 men under his command. You just have to sit pretty and watch me create an empire.” Carlos smiles as he fantasizes about his dream empire. “Why won’t I be going?! I need to go to oversee everything. After all I am the heir to this empire.” Antonella crossed her arms while tapping her foot repeatedly. “Yes. You are the heir to my empire, Chico, that’s why it’s very important to keep you safe.” Carlos caressed her cheeks. “But… I- it’s- “Antonella struggled with her words, she couldn’t come up with an excuse, if only she could tell the old man she was in love with Enzo. “Shhh- say no more chico, you will stay here where it is safe, a lot of people will be looking to get a piece of us after the stunt we just pulled, let’s not play into their hands.” Carlos goes back to his seat, he opens a bottle if blended whiskey and pours it into a glass. “Georgina would pair with Enzo as chief lieutenant in the mission, I think they work efficiently together, look at the last mission for example.” Carlos hinted. “Absolutely not!” Antonella yelled. Carlos brows furrowed as he took her high tone as a hint of disrespect. “Excuse you, is there something I should know about?" Carlos asked, tension suffocating the air. Antonella panicked, her father was unto her, what was she going to do now? "Not at all father, I just think there are other suitable candidates than Georgina." Antonella played it safe, she pasted a smile on her face but her eyes darted nervously. "I know but given the level of success Enzo has brought, it would be unfair to deprive him of his happiness, I noticed they are both fond of each other. Some men reported to me that they were quite the flirty couple." Carlos scoffs darkly. This statement broke Antonella's heart even more but she couldn't help but hide her emotions behind a solid facade. "Okay father, I'll prepare the men for the briefing." Antonella responded. "I'm so going to kill her." Antonella muttered as she left the room. The doors swung open and it was General Danjuma dressed in his full military attire accompanied by a few soldiers. "Oh... The general himself, it's a pleasure to have you." Carlos grinned as he greeted the general with a warm reception. Danjuma sat down across the table facing Carlos with his men standing guard over him. "I believe you have gone through the agreement." Danjuma's voice rippled through the calm room. "Yes I have but I feel there are adjustments to be made regarding the payment arrangements." Carlos opens a bottle of whiskey filling two glasses, one for him and another for Danjuma. Danjuma collects the glass but hesitates to drink, Carlos intention to change the payment agreement has spiked tension between them. "This is total unacceptable, a deal is a deal, you have to honor our agreement." Danjuma protested but Carlos was nonchalant. "I accepted the $100M as an opening offer, clearly you didn't think that would be our only payment did you?" Carlos asked his tone more intimidating than before. Carlos tosses a new set of paper on the table. "This is the new payment arrangements; you'd be wise to concur." Carlos sips on his glass of whiskey, a sense of pride filled his face. Danjuma looks at the paper. "This is asking for a lot; you're being unreasonably greedy." Danjuma spurned. In defiance two of Danjuma's guards raised their weapons instantly aiming towards Carlos in an attempt to frighten him but Carlos laughed awkward almost like he was insulted by their audacity and rightly so. The two guards exchange confused glances, they had Carlos on gun point and he laughed at them like babies who couldn't harm him. "I suggest you reconsider your decision and do it quickly." Carlos responds unfazed, taking another sip of his whiskey. This statement created more confusion in the room, panic rippled through the atmosphere, Danjuma's men had no idea what to do. A silent rifle gunshot was heard as both of Danjuma's men fell to the ground lifelessly, Danjuma bowed his head taking cover. Enzo walks into the room, a sense of unease dawned on Danjuma and his men, Enzo walks straight to table, his pose defiant as ever. Enzo tosses a new set of paper towards Danjuma. "Sign it or you won't have fingers if u defy me." Enzo's tone menacing, Danjuma looks around two of his finest men were just killed and Enzo didn't even break a sweat, he had no choice but to succumb. "How am I sure that you won't screw me over?" Danjuma replied with a shaking voice. "You've been at war with the rebels for years, but I assure you the rebellion won't last 2 months when we come into play." Enzo said coldly.

"If you wanted it, you would have come for it." Antonella pouted, rolling her eyes and taking a pause looking at Enzo intently.
