“I think you should go into the control room alone Maria” I paused on my tracks and told her as she followed behind me. Her steps came to an abrupt stop. The control room was just on the n3xt floor and by now I was sure the men at the entrance had informed their boss I was in the building. “We have to use the stairs this time and not the elevator”. I informed Maria sharply. “Why? It would take so much time, "she pointed out. I know but it would save us from being trapped in here besides we didn't come here to fight just a little search and we are done” “Alright”, she answered and we began running up the stairs carefully to avoid raising the alarm. The Francesca that I know would rather not make any moves by herself. We climbed up the stairs quickly and when we got to the Hallway we split. Maria kno2s exactly where the surveillance room was. She rushed in while I headed straight for the living room.The moment I pushed the door open I found Francesca and her daughter eating and dr
I knew there was some sort of mistake from the beginning. The news couldn’t say any better. For the past forty one hour or two my son has reportedly gone missing. Maria and I had gone to the school to do some findings and was told that the man assigned to pick him up did that about an hour ago and they could prove that it was him and speaking to Dominico over the phone also made me understand the young man had risked his life to protect my boy but he was shot and at the moment we can’t confirm if he is dead or alive. My heart raced in my chest threatening to fall out.I had left the instructions with Nurse Abigail to look after my grandfather until I am back at the hospital. The past few days have been hell going in and out of that place yet there hasn’t been any major change in his health however I am hopeful that he would get better and all of this chaos would stop. Maria and I were still in the school premises when the headlines came again. A picture of my boy followed by the capti
I looked at Leo with pain and anger in my eyes, not for him but for the person or group of persons who have done this to humiliate me. At this point every damn soul was a suspect. “You can’t take that risk for me Leo, you are your mother’s only child and I don’t want any tragedy to befall her. At the moment I have just come out of one and I had to pay a huge amount of money for compensation”, I told him vaguely but the young man shook his head at me. For the first time since I hired him he was going against my orders.Flashing him another disapproving look to see if he was going to give up on his death wish but he rolled his eyes and looked out the window like he didn’t really care what the heck I was talking about.“You know this mission is deadly right? You haven’t held a gun in your entire life, how do you even intend to help?” I asked him and he looked at me with purpose and faith.“Boss I already told you have a good background in Martial arts, I can help so come on let's go get
I paused, shocked at the revelation my assistant Leo had just given me. “Is this a joke or some sort of prank?” I asked him as the anger within me began to rise to a boil.“No—no sir, I can never take your peace of mind for granted. It’s the truth. I am telling you the truth. I just got the information and just now it’s being announced on the news” he was trembling even his voice could tell he didn’t want me to cast my wrath on him. He picked up the remote and turned the TV to the CNN station.The headlines came right on time with my son’s photo on it. “The Salvatore heir has been kidnapped by unknown gunmen from his school” my hands began to tremble, my eyes twitched with the uncertainty of what would become of my son if I don’t take action.“No, not under my watch”. I was fuming, confused and detached from every other thing I had to do. “It happened along the western road sir, towards hills drive, only Spider had gone to pick him up since Dragon and the others were assigned to gua
Before she was done talking Christian did the transfer to her account. First when heard the soft beep once in her phone and then she took a pause to look at it.“Done Tyler spoke to the mafia lord. Wait, hold on a second” the woman said and when she confirmed the alert she screamed into the phone that we all her to shift our ears away from the cringe sound for a while. I mean who wouldn’t take an offer like that for the death of a man who never really cared about her and her sons. “I believe you’ve gotten the money?” Tyler asked to be sure she gave the response with her mouth this time.“Of course I just did. I mean this is huge, thank you so much. I promise no one would hear about this”“Good girl” Tyler winked at me as we all listened to the lady receive a huge sum of money to stay quiet about her husband’s death. I already knew she was a lawyer and she could go crazy if she wanted to, so I made sure Tyler left her a little threat.“No one must hear about this else you would leave
We knew everything was going to end up like this from the beginning. Christian showed up at the warehouse. Tyler grabbed a seat quickly and sat his butt in it. Christian did the same with a grin on his face.“Well, I have good new boss”“Okay, go ahead Christian all we need at this point it’s only good news and nothing more. I just want all of this saga to end”, I told them with a serious look, and I meant every word that came out of my mouth. A few files on the table staring back at me unattended. “Yes, so boss, I found out the late officer's wife is about to move out but I am not even sure where. From the information I gathered she had been asked to evacuate the home because she can’t meet up with all the bills”.“This is the best opportunity for us, we need to let her know we are helping her in some way”, Tyler spoke, his bulgy eyes roaming in their socket.“Okay. Fine. We need to call her then and we also need to give her our terms and condition”, I was specific with what I wante
