Her mind went to the bus and the comments from her colleagues (The newspaper publication is not necessary because the evidence of divorce is here. Can't you see that after the divorce, Mr. Williams collected all his vehicles from her and she had to join the bus?) (But Mr. Williams is dead.)(We are saying the same thing. His absence is the cause of her joining the bus.)“So, they thought that Tim was responsible for the cars?”“That's weird. He doesn't even own a garden cart and can't even drive a car,” she concluded. Not long, she drifted off.In The Morning“I will be on my way. Have a wonderful day, Mom and Dad,” she said after their breakfast.“Okay, dear. Kindly run along,” her mother said.“Have a great day too,” her father added and she left.She got to the estate gate and met the other staff members waiting for the bus and she greeted them cheerfully.“Good morning everyone.”“Good morning, Laura,” they responded and continued waiting.Part of the thing that made her head s

Meanwhile, his phone rang again and he ignored it. The Commandant cannot vouch that Ben did not have devilish intentions in the social media post and instructed him, “Apart from the aid, no visitor should speak with them.” “I wonder which relation would wish to speak with a student at this time of the day.”“You see what I mean. She is not even related to them."“You are right, Commandant. Otherwise, she would have known the right time to speak with them.”"That is it. It is just a ploy to get them and discredit the school.”“You agree with you,” the Housemaster said, and instantly blocked the number and left.At The Auxiliary Armory PLCLaura could not believe what she heard.“How can he say that I called the wrong number after announcing the name of the school?” She murmured.After a while, she looked at her phone and called the number again. She gazed intently at it while waiting for the call to connect. To her heartbreak, she discovered that she had been blocked.“He blocked my

At The Auxiliary Armory PLC - The President's Office It was Laura who walked in and she looked upset. Notwithstanding, George was surprised to see her but annoyed with her for barging into his office. He quickly restrained himself from tongue-lashing her and asked, “What brings you here, Miss Dickson?”“I need your help, Sgt. Young,” she said, trying hard to be friendly.“What kind of help do you need from me?” he grimaced his face and asked.“I tried to call my brothers' school this morning, but I was told that I had the wrong number. When I called back, I found out that my number had been blocked,” she explained. George was upset and concluded that she was below-average intelligence. “Do you require help from me, or you have come to tell me stories? Go straight to the point and stop beating about,” he advised her.“I apologize, Sgt Young. I mean, I wish to visit my brothers' school if you permit me. I will be back before you know it.”Without hesitation, he made it clear to her,

They posed for photographs afterward. Meanwhile, George shared the photographs with Tim. The pressmen will always appear like bees wherever there is honey. At that point, Laura was a history and the accomplishment of the new General and President took over the airwaves. Nevertheless, George granted an interview to the pressmen on behalf of the absent President. Likewise, an over-inquisitive reporter inquired, “What happens to your old cars?”Without second thoughts, he declared, “We intend to auction them to the public.”“Wow! That is a good idea. Permit me to ask, when will the auction take place?”“Coming Saturday morning.”“That is good to hear. Thank you so much for giving me attention.”“You are welcome.”At Tim's House After he spoke with the lawyer, he promised to be with him in a while. As a janitorial staff, he put on a simple wear and walked to the gate. “Good morning, Boss,” the gate men greeted him, respectfully. He answered their greetings and sat with them in the ga

At Tim's House After they concluded with the letter, he appreciated him again.“Thank you for everything, barrister. I can't wait to get the support.”“You are welcome. We are taking them one after the other. Apart from the support, she will compensate you for beating you up and aborting your baby.”“Wow! That is good, barrister.”“It is all right. You can go back to work, lest your manager gets offended by your absence.”“Okay. Goodbye, barrister.”“Goodbye, dear.” Tim got out of the vehicle and watched him drive away before he walked into his house. He was engrossed in his discussion with his lawyer when many things took place in the office. Now, he lay on his bed and pondered on many things. The news on the television jolted him up and he focused on it.The pressmen were good at blowing things out of proportion but that exaggerated headline favored Tim and everyone that day.(Gen.

At The Car ParkCapt. Bruce was glad that he settled the issue of the new and old buses among the drivers and no one would accuse him of favoring or cheating anyone.“I hope you are happy now?” He asked the oldest driver, who luckily picked a new car from the lucky dip. “Yes, Captain. Whether the new wine will be in an old wine skin, I don't care anymore,” the happy driver responded and they laughed merrily.Soon, it was closing time and the staff members were rushing to secure a seat in the new buses. As Capt. Bruce carefully planned it. Each route had two buses - a new and an old one. The early birds were lucky to get the new buses.“Wow! We are the first to ride on it,” a female staff member stated enthusiastically.“You are right. It feels good,” the others commented simultaneously.Nevertheless, Laura had composed herself after the barrister who came to disturb her over a dead rat, left. She believed that she should be given preferential treatment because of her position as the

His question gave the barrister some sense of accomplishment and he boasted, “Of course. There is no organization that I can not access in Canterbury. I walked into her office and served her the petition.”“That is powerful of you. Did she comply?”“Certainly. She has no choice.”“Oh, that is so awesome.”“Yes. The payment is in my account. I can transfer it to your account if you have any."“Yes. I have.” "It is all right. Provide me with the details.”“It's all right. I will give you my details right away.”He supplied his account that his grandfather opened for him when he was a cadet. In a jiffy, he got a credit alert. “Wow!” He exclaimed and called the barrister back to confirm the payment.“I got the credit alert, barrister,” he informed him after he picked up the call.“That is good to hear.”“I observed that you did not deduct your service charges. Why?”The barrister laughed and declined, “Never mind. It is part of my contribution to the society.”“Thank you for your kindn

At The Canterbury Defense Academy Nevertheless, after Gerald and Samuel spoke with Tim the previous day, as though they had an agreement, they saw their father's call and ignored it. They had the same opinion about their family - they were in the wrong place. When they remembered the last words of their father - 'I would rather get justice for my dog than for a wife beater', they concluded that they were selfish and apathetic and were not proud to be the children of such parents. Their anger increased when they discovered that their sister framed him and they thought that their parents were part of the plot.“Why is he calling me? Heartless man. Go and get justice for your dog instead of a human being,” Gerald sneered.They turned off their phones and submitted them to their Housemasters.Meanwhile, Before Laura left for work that morning, her father had left the house to search for his children. Although he had a sleepless night his discovery had put him on his toes. “Here we are,

At The President's Office (I got it, Boss.) 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.

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.

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?"

"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.

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

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.

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! You can ask the Corporal to release her," he advised him."I would have done that not until I lay my hands on her, and she would r
