He said many things and concluded with, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, a new Mount Olive. It is a Dukedom that will surpass other Dukedoms in Canterbury."

The other Dukes grinned at his boastful remarks and said, "Don't be too sure."

He laughed softly and continued. "After ..."

"He is laughing like Oliver," one of the Dukes pointed out.

"Not just that. The voice sounds like his," another Duke responded.

"After we close, the dignitaries, my fellow Dukes, and elders will join me at my palace for lunch," the old man continued and confused them all the more.

"His palace? Where is it?" One of the eight elders asked his fellow Duke.

"The palace of course. Oliver's house."

"Is it that dilapidated house?"

"Yes. Is it not better than going to Harry's house?"

"That killer? I wouldn't have gone "

"You got it," the other admitted.

The old man looked at the audience and said, "The others will have their lunch in this hall. I hope you are not offended?"

    In The Head of State's Office After the salutations, they took their seats and focused on his expressionless face. To their disturbance, he was mute.To break the silence, Tim remarked, "I don't know that the First Lady is good at table tennis games."Kay was aware of what Tim was up to and focused the on Head of State's face. His wife would always give him joy and he smiled broadly."I know. That is the only thing that can make you smile from ear to ear," Kay teased him, and he burst into a raucous laughter.Tim pretended not to know what he did and did not laugh. Rather, he watched the two laughed unrestrainedly. The Head of State faced Tim and answered, "Yes. She is. Thank you for the compliment.""You are welcome, Your Excellency. I was surprised to see the news and wondered why I had not seen her playing before.""Are you wondering?" Kay asked him with a smirk and explained, "Can't you see that the Cadets frightened him on Friday and he needed to unwind?" They laughed at his j

    He returned the salute and headed towards the staircase. The security guards wondered if he missed his way. He was relieved with the exercise and attributed his tiredness to the program of the weekend which deprived him of his training. Meanwhile, the old man, who was supposed to be resting after the ceremony was glued to his phone. At noon, he called him. The phone rang several times before it timed out. He was surprised that he did not pick up the call and looked at the number again."I dialed the right number," he told himself and dialed it again.He waited patiently for him to pick up the call, but he did not, and it timed out again."Why is he not picking up his call?" He asked himself.He tried one more time and gave up.

    Now, they were at the civic center, and the three workers who were employed to take care of it stood up at once. They greeted him respectfully and he responded."Kindly open the door," he requested and they did that at once."Thank you, for this," he appreciated them and walked in. The others followed him and they looked around. By default, the two young men were among his mini entourage and they began to educate him on all they thought that he needed to know about the center."That is good to hear. I think it would be appropriate to expand the center.""It is big enough, Your Grace," one of the young men said."Why do you want to expand it, Your Grace?" The other person asked him.Francis was amused by their boldness and looked at his colleague. He smiled as well and waited for the old man to respond."We need a bigger center where youths who wish to go into entertainment can perform," he answered, and their eyes opened."Ha!""So soon?" They asked him at once."Yes. Or what do you

    "It is all right. But remember you have to tell us how you ended up on the street."He showed worries and Richard opened the car door. He sat down and focused on him for his response.When Tim noticed that he was troubled, he asked further, "Did you discuss your past with her?"He hesitated before he answered him, "No, Boss. I did not.""Did you see why you need to let the President know about you so that he will know how to defend you," he pacified him.He took a deep breath and responded, "I got it, Boss. If I may ask, when can we see him?"Tim looked at Richard and he took over the discussion, "I will find out from him and let you know.""It is all right. Thank you very much for your support.""You are welcome," Richard responded and Tim turned on his engine."Don't go back to work with your moody face, or you will upset your parents-in-law," Tim declared, and he cheered up."I got it, Boss," he answered cheerfully.

    "Yes. You can recall that he called me and requested that he should resume work even when the Holiday was short.”"Yes. I remember. He must have lectured him properly for him to deliver seamlessly.""You are right. We visited him one day and discovered that he was in a closed-door meeting with Gerald.""Ha!" George exclaimed and laughed aloud. Tim laughed, too, and George asked him, "A closed-door meeting with a cadet? That is hilarious.""But it paid off. No one would attribute the protest to him.""I got it. We learn every day.""You are right."He read through the old man's report and was pleased with his plans to expand the civic center. Afterward, George called him and he was happy to hear his voice."Hello, Son," he greeted him."Hello, Dad. I'm happy to hear from you. I apologize for not picking up your calls.""I got it. I thought you could be busy with your work.""You are right. How was your day?""My day was fine. I went to the civic center to ensure that everything was in

    "Hey! When did I hiss?" She asked him and Tim amused himself."You have hissed twenty-three times and only laughed when he walked in," he explained innocently."Were you counting the hisses?" Tim asked him."Yes, Sir," he admitted without guile. "She would not even talk to me."Tim got how she felt but wished to stay but he had to leave for the meeting. He looked at the time and asked her, "Will you hiss if I leave now?"Her eyes shone in astonishment. "You just came. Why are you leaving?" She asked him.The clerk laughed softly and asked him, "Did you see what I mean?""I can see."He felt some sensation in his manhood and got up. He smiled and looked into her longing eyes and promised her, "One day, I will spend the whole day with you."She smiled happily and asked him, "Promise?"Tim placed his hand on his chest and declared, "Cross my heart. I promise.""It's all right. See you later," she said and Tim accepted.He looked at the clerk and promised him, "If she hisses, I will

George replied.Afterward, he looked at the General Manager who was drafting the modalities for the Biannual General Meeting and informed him, "The front desk officer has not been served the query for coming to work late on Friday.""Yes. That was what brought the fight.""She must be served. I need her response before the meeting," George stated."Consider it done."Without delay, he contacted the Corporal through the intercom and he picked up the call at once."Good morning, General," he greeted him at once."It is the General Manager, Corporal. Pick the front desk officer from the lobby and take her to the gate. She should serve Miss Dickson the query.""Consider it done, Boss," he said and looked at Laura."I need her reply immediately.""I got it, Boss."

    The driver wondered what was happening and was troubled as well. He honked at the gate man but he did not lift the bar for him. Rather, he walked to the bus and opened the door.He greeted them and informed Laura, "Miss Dickson, your attention is needed at the security office."Everyone, including the driver, turned and focused on her. She was disturbed and inquired at once, "What for?""Obey before complaining," some loud-mouthed passengers said and angered her.Despite her beautiful dress, urge to get George, and all that she was going through, she looked at one of the speakers angrily. She was about to hit one of them when the gateman shouted at her, "Hurry up and don't keep others waiting."She simply glared at the person and got out of the bus. The gateman shut the door and walked back to the bar while Laura walked into the office.

They saw the attendants arranging the place. Tim parked and called Kay."We are around, Your Excellency," he informed him after he picked up the call."It's all right. I am waiting for His Excellency," he responded, and his eyes widened in astonishment."It's okay," he said and ended the call.He looked at George and saw his shock."Are you scared?" He asked him."Ha! I thought we were playing with only the Second in Command.""I thought so as well. I never knew he informed the Head of State. Just be yourself. Okay?" He breathed freely and answered, "I will."Shortly after, the team arrived and parked accordingly. Tim and George got out of their vehicle and walked to them. George saluted them accordingly and they returned the salute while Tim looked on.'This is not what I planned,' he said

    "I can hold it for you, Boss," Nathaniel volunteered to hold the gift he bought for George."Never mind," he said and got out of the car.He walked back to the foyer with great expectations. To his chagrin, he was not there. He swallowed hard and walked into the parlor.'He is still angry with me,' he said when he did not see him in the parlor."Take this to George," he ordered Nathaniel who was waiting for him to dismiss him."Okay, Boss," he said and collected the stuff.He walked to George's room while Tim headed to the kitchen. Sheldon, who was washing the dishes, paused and welcomed him."Has George eaten?" He asked him afterward.No, Boss.""Why?""He said he will let me know when he will eat," he explained."I see," he said and walked out.Nathaniel should have been out of George's room so that he could ask him questions about him.

    "I'm visiting the graveyard, Nathaniel," Tim informed the officer."I got it, Boss," he answered him."What kind of handgun do you have?""The hand cannon, Boss," he faced him and answered."It's okay, Boss," he said."Are you with the cleaning materials?" He asked him."We will hire from the workers," he answered him and drove on.Shortly after, he was at the gate of the cemetery. Meanwhile, Sheldon was confused about what to do about the breakfast. They had hardly eaten their food last night before the arguments that made them abandon it. He felt bad while trashing the food."Don't they like it?" He asked himself.After mulling over the incident, he shrugged and said, "I will prepare the breakfast all the same."Not quite long, George and his team members returned. The training gave him some relief but when he did not see Tim at the foyer, he felt bad. His feelings grew from bad to worse when he did not see his car."This is serious. So, he has gone to see her?"

    At Tim's House After he rebuffed George and covered his duvet over his head, he felt good. He expected that he would knock on the door again but he did not. After waiting for a while, he perceived that he had returned to his room and was disappointed."I have angered him," he said and got up.He was disturbed and asked himself, "What do I do?" He picked up his phone to call him but changed his mind."He won't pick up the call. There is no need," he said to himself and dropped the idea.He turned on the television, just to keep him busy. The war film reminded him of Brig. Witherspoon and the threat from the South Coast. He pouted and picked up Gen. Hanklin's phone."Stupid country. They will learn their lesson the hard way," he said and swiped the phone.He saw a few new messages and tapped the older ones. He smiled when he saw Ambrose's suicide note to him. He was pleased to know that he had not spoken with him after he recovered."He has truly repented and loyal to Canterbury," he

    Nevertheless, she succeeded in pulling her away from her father but she tried to resist her and continued to hit her husband. Suddenly, her husband pushed her and she landed on Laura."Ouch!" She screamed.At that point, Pa Dickson was favored. He got up quickly and descended on his wife. He punched her face several times while she kept shouting. Laura, who was under her, was in pain and shouting as well. "Get up from me, Mom," she shouted but her mother could not.Rather, her husband kept punching her face. When he was satisfied, he let go of her and cursed, "Stupid woman. I will teach a lesson that you will never forget."Laura pushed her mother aside and got up angrily."So, this is your plan? The two of you wished to kill me," she said, walked back to her room, and locked the door.Although Madeline was weak, she would not let her husband off the hook. As he was trying to sit back on the couch, she mustered energy. Like a wounded lion, she leaped up from the floor and swooped su

    At The Complex Laura got up and walked to the door like a bulldog. The Corporal and warden gave way for her or she would have pounced on them. With that, she increased her offenses, and Jerry cashed in and whipped her legs with the horsewhip."Repeat after me, Miss Dickson. Say I will not disturb the peace of the complex again," he requested while flogging her."I will never disturb .... Hey!" She stopped and shrieked in pain.Jerry continued to flog her, and she continued to cry and repeat after him."Run for your life before I kill you. Silly girl," he shouted at her and she obeyed. George was happy to see her running out of the cell like a little mouse frightened out of the Queen's chair.She continued running towards the reception when Jerry joined George in the car and he turned on his ignition."Good job, Sergeant," he said and drove off.Nevertheless, she got to the lobby, and the new security team was surprised to see her running like a thief."What!

    He would have called Cpl. Simpson, who was on night duty, to release her, but it would not give him the satisfaction he wanted. Shortly after, he stormed out of his room, got the car keys from the hangar, and walked to the garage. His car alerted Collins and Jerry the moment he turned on his ignition. They walked out of the boys quarters and focused on him."We are going to the complex. Hop in if you are ready," he informed them.They were troubled and did not want to keep him longer than necessary. Jerry was on his khaki pants and camouflage shirt. Collins was putting on the same shirts upon knickers and was not comfortable with it."I will change to trousers," he said and walked away.Jerry got into the front seat, looked at George's sad face, and inquired, "I hope there's no problem?""The boss said we should release that wrench in the guard room.""Ha!
