The Return of General Williams 67. Misleading
At The Auxiliary Armory PLCGeorge arrived early and met Mabel, the Janitor on duty that week waiting for him. From the look of things, she may accuse Gilbert of vilifying her before the President's Representative as well.“Good morning, Sgt. Young,” she greeted happily.Without opening the door, George scanned her before he responded to her greetings, “Good morning, Janitor. How may I help you?” “I'm on duty here this week,” she explained.Instantly, he resolved that he would not work with her and requested, “That's good to hear. Ask your boss to send Gilbert to me.” Despite her crestfallen face, he never expected her to argue with him. He opened his door and walked in.“What is wrong with this, Gilbert? Why must he send for him?” She asked herself bitterly.They preferred the President's office to any other office in the complex because it had less work. Unlike the General Manager's and the Accountant's offices where most of the activities of the organization take place. They will

Tim ran his hand across his head, laughed happily, and asked himself, “What would I have done without George? Thank you, for being the best.” At Laura's House “Everything is just going south quickly. Our sons are missing. Our daughter is facing a lot at her place of work. What is happening?”Madeline was conversant with his feelings and consoled him, “I know how you feel. I feel the same way too but we have to be alive for each other and solve the problem together.”“Even if they return today, they would have been expelled from the school, as the Commandant threatened.”“Ouch!” She cried out in anguish. Presently, she was weeping and her husband was uncomfortable with it.“Stop crying, my dear. Let me call their numbers again. Who knows, fate will smile on us.”A dry smile flickered across Madeline's face and she looked on while he dialed Gerald's number. They waited afterward until they heard the automated message - The number you dialed is unreachable.“It could be a glitch. Kindl

“Lance Corporals indeed. Are you not aware that they were the Secretary's thugs? How can they function here?”“Oh, my God! They are the only officers free presently.” “Get two men from your office and replace these dogs with them.”“I got you, Captain,” he answered.“Can you imagine that? I didn't even recognize them,” George said and got up.“They should leave at once,” he said, and the General Manager watched him trying to walk out of his chair.“I have sent them away,” he informed him.“That is good,” he said and sat down.The General Manager breathed heavily and looked at George's face. When he observed that he was calmer, he made his request known. “The Supervisor of the Janitorial Services Company was in my office.”“I am aware. I sent him. Now that he has revoked his contract, we should advertise for a replacement,” George stated conclusively.The General Manager was bereft of speech and was unable to bring up their case. He smiled softly and looked at George again. Meanwhil

"Oh! Do they see it as a gesture? That is very nice of them,” he responded without expecting any monetary reward.“They are genuinely grateful. If we have your account details, we will forward it to them.”“My account?” He furrowed his brow and asked.“Yes.” To avoid appearing rude and demoralizing them, he supplied his details and they left while he continued with his work.At The Canteen“You can go for your lunch one after the other,” he informed the Corporals when he walked out of his office.“Okay, General,” they accepted, and he moved. As for Gilbert, he would sort himself out. He got to the canteen and sat with the managers. Subsequently, they were served and they began to eat.Unexpectedly, they saw his broadcast. (South Coast and you, coward, Gen. Sabastine Hanklin. I wish to let you know that we owe you no explanation over whom we support or not. Any more side talk about our Head of State or the good people of Canterbury, I Sgt. George Young will single-handedly come for y

He dropped the folder on the table and walked out immediately and met Gilbert sitting on the couch and watching the television. Although he was respectful to him in the past that day, after watching his broadcast, he added fear to his relationship with him. “If you don't see me at the close of work, just bang the door and leave.”“Okay, President.”He got to the door and met the Corporals. He returned their salutes and left. When he got to the lobby, Collins and Jerry got up and followed him.“What's up, George? Who provoked you?” Collins asked him.“That stupid Head of State deserves more than that.”“You are right. This will humble him.” Not long, they were at home.Meanwhile, Laura was through with the cleaning of the Janitorial office. She cleaned her ruined dress too and returned to the lobby.“Where are they,” she asked when she noticed that Collins and Jerry were gone. Nevertheless, she sat down and resigned herself to her fate.At Tim's HouseAt twenty years, George had rem

At Tim's HouseHe got to his room and pondered on many things ranging from Laura's behavior and her plans to drug George.“I think I should remove her from that office but not with dignity,” he resolved and focused on how to help George.“Attic bedroom on self-exile? He must have been frustrated by his wife to take such a decision,” he concluded and began to follow up on the news. Not long, he dozed off and was woken up by a call. He jumped up from the bed and picked up his phone that was on the sideboard.“Gerald,” he muttered and received the call.“Hello, Gerald. How are you doing?”“I'm fine, Brother-in-law. We saw George's broadcast on the internet news.”“Oh! That's good. I hope you did not let your colleagues know that you are close to him?”“Not at all. We acted to be as surprised as they were.”“Better.”“Can we comment on it?”“Why not? But hide your identity.”“I got it. I will inform Samuel and our friends to comment as well. Their Head of State is a nincompoop. Stupid co

At The President's OfficeLaura and Gilbert had been in a staring contest since she walked in. Although the television was on they chose to glare at each other at the slighted opportunity. With the situation of things, she was undecided about whether to continue with her quest for the New President's contact. “This unpredictable human being. I don't know what to do again and he will send me away from the organization,” she mumbled.Notwithstanding, her phone peeped with a message and she jolted from her reverie. Apart from that, Gilbert felt disturbed and eyed her. She brought out her phone which had been in her purse and tapped on the message. Without delay, she began to read it. She hardly got to the middle of the circular before she screamed.“Oh, my God. Why now?”She attracted Gilbert who thought that she was bereaved and he focused on her while she continued to read.“What will I do now?” She mumbled and stared at the wall.At Tim's HouseHer question was not strange to Tim bec

At The Scene They got there and met a lot of people with different missions. The pressmen were more than the rescue team - the fire service department, law enforcement agencies, forensic laboratory, bomb technicians, and investigators. All the same, he unzipped his cross bag and brought out his hand gloves and nose mask. He put them on for safety reasons.“I need any evidence for my investigation,” he informed Richard and walked on. “Okay, Boss.”“Make way for us,” Major Bowen requested while he tried to lead Tim to the burnt trucks.The onlookers adjusted based on respect for him and not the meek-looking Tim. However, their movement left them gobsmacked.“Where are they going?”“I. Wonder. Do they wish to get to the trucks?”“I don't understand. The trucks are burnt.” “Maybe one of the trucks was theirs.”“Oh! It is possible.”Now, they were face to face with the trucks and all eyes were on them, just to see what they were up to. Nevertheless, the trucks were dismembered and the

She was still trying to rest after trekking from the lobby a few minutes ago. Asking her to trek back would be too much. Besides, it could cripple the work. He asked one of the officers to take her to the lobby.The officer was disgusted at the task which would disrupt his work. "I got it, Boss," he said and picked up the car keys.He walked out of the office and glared at Laura who was sitting dejectedly on a bench."I will leave you behind if you don't come with me," he yelled at her.Laura looked up and before she could process what he said, he had stormed out of the office."Follow him, Miss Dickson. Your attention is needed at the lobby," Cpl. Simpson informed her.She jolted out of her stupor, picked up her purse, and ran after him. Incidentally, he was one of the people who took her home on Friday and warned her about getting into trouble. She got into the bus and shut the door."How can I leave my work because someone must always get into trouble?" He grumbled as he drove tow

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
The Return of General Williams 400. Returned Joy 1
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
