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. Tim Williams the President of the Auxiliary Armory PLC has transformed the organization in absenti
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 Auxiliary Armory PLCGeorge was in his office and monitoring the premises. As for the arrival of the staff members, he did not have much to worry about anymore. When he was certain that the buses had arrived, he began to watch the AM News.“What is our offense? Is it an offense to do business with their enemies?” He asked himself when he heard the hostile comments of the South Coastians and continued watching.“This could lead to a fight,” he concluded and brought out his gun from the drawer.“One has to be prepared for anything,” he told himself and concentrated on his gun.At 9 AM, he decided to visit the Production Department for more knowledge. He got up and tried to turn off the television. To his astonishment, he saw Laura's interview and halted.He began to fume when she introduced herself as the Representative of the President and kept watching. The time she said that everything would fall into place when the President resumed was the straw that broke the camel's back.
“Oh! I apologize if it had caused you any embarrassment.”“Never mind. You are not at fault. Kindly correct the misleading information. The auction sales will take place this coming Saturday at ten zero, zero hours in the complex.” “I got it. I will correct that at once.”“It all right.”Capt. Trenton cut the call and searched George's face. He was happy that he was satisfied.“That is a good one. We will have a free advert for the event,” George said, and the others laughed.They were still laughing when the Head of the Media Department got a call and they halted. He looked at the caller and smiled before he picked up the call.“Hello, MD,” he greeted.“Before I forget, is there any contact person for the public to contact concerning the auction sales?”The Head of Media looked at the General Manager for his approval and he advised, “Give him my secretary's details.”“Yes, MD. I will forward the details to you right away.”“That would be fine. Kindly give the pictures of the cars to
At The Canteen George spent the whole of the morning in the Production Department and monitored the television broadcasts. Meanwhile, he was happy with himself and could imagine how Laura was standing in the empty office. “Can you imagine the guts? (Yes. It has everything to do with the present administration. I am hopeful that everything will fall into shape when the President resumes.) She is indirectly saying that I don't know what I am doing. Stupid girl,” he cursed and walked to the canteen. Presently, Stephanie was not finding it easy. The callers were not mindful of the time - whether she was on break or not. They called at their convenience and in most cases, her line would be busy. She walked into the canteen and observed that all eyes were on her. Before she could process the reason for that, her phone rang again and she picked up the call.“Hello. This is the Auxiliary Armory PLC. How may I help you?”“Hello, Miss Benjamin. I got your contact from the television.”“That
Howbeit, she left it unlocked and walked away. She got to the elevator and joined the other staff members in the queue. After she got in, she pressed the fifth button and everyone wondered. “Have you not closed from work today, Laura?” A concerned staff member asked her.“I have. Why do you ask?”“I can see that you are not going home yet.”“I am going home,” she smiled softly and responded while concentrating on the lift. It stopped when they got to the fifth floor and the door opened. She walked out quickly and headed to Stephanie's office. Unfortunately, she had left the office.“Idiot. She must be at the car park,” she told herself and rushed back to the elevator.To her annoyance, she had to wait for the two lifts that had taken the passengers to the lobby to return.“Shit! I can't wait,” She exclaimed and resolved to use the staircase.“What is she doing here?” The other staff members asked each other. She hardly left when the lift opened and they got to the first floor befo
At Vincent's House With the appreciation broadcast from Vincent's family, Therry, Natasha's boyfriend was threatened the more. His marriage with her was to come up in a couple of weeks, and he would not go through the scandal of being dumped. "I will send him back to the land of the dead where he belonged," he resolved.He had been waiting for when he would resume work so that he would strike. When his car arrived on Saturday, he was delighted but he did not work that day or on Sunday. Now, his intel informed him that he was alone at home and he decided to strike.Meanwhile, after Tim spoke with Michael, he informed the soldiers. They contacted him and promised to pick him up after lunch. He was having his lunch when a car stopped in front of his house and the driver honked.He concluded that the soldiers had arrived and said, "They came earlier."All the same, he walked to the gate and opened it for them. Although they were not with a military vehicle like the day they brought hi
At The President's Office So far, the deliberations were going on smoothly until it got to Laura's misconduct. Capt. Jaja poured out his heart, "She should be on her way out this moment.""Yes," they chorused while George and the GM watched them.Tim studied their faces and discovered that they were tired of Laura and keeping her against their wishes would not go down well with them. Besides, they would be angry with George who was tired of her as well. To arrest the situation, he sent a message to him.(Inform them that you will send her to work as an inventory officer at the steel mill site.)It was a big relief for him and he replied at once. (That is a good one, Boss. Thank you for this.)He looked up confidently and allowed the managers to speak out."Who knows who she would attack tomorrow?" Capt. Sawyer asked."It may be you," Capt. Bolton teased him."If she tries it, I won't just kill her but kill her ghost as well," he said angrily, and they burst into strident laughter."T
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. 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." At The Security Office After the call, he picked up the car keys and walked out of his office. "I will be late for work, Corporal," Laura informed him.He took no notice of her and
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. He lifted the bar, and the bus driver drove in, followed by the other buses which queued behind.Nevertheless, George's team members were in the queue
At The Table Tennis CourtGeorge was full of joy and all over Tim like an over-pampered baby. Tim could feel it when they were having their lunch. At 4:40 PM, they left for the table tennis court. 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. When he did not see him, he walked to his room.Nevertheless, when Nathaniel knocked on George's door, he thought that the knock was from Tim. He c
"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?" He asked himself an
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
