“It is a brief trip. I hope to be back tomorrow,” he explained.

“It is okay. I wish you a safe trip,” Tim stated and he was pleased.

“Thank you for your concern.”

“You are welcome.”

He was relieved that he had crossed the hurdle. He thought that he would ask many questions but he did not. Likewise, he returned to work afterward. The day moved gradually and Tim continued to work in the vehicle while Richard and the chef continued to survey the place. After a while, he called the Second in Command.

“Hello, Tim. How are you?”

“Hello. Good afternoon, Your Excellency. I'm great,” he answered and updated him on Ambrose's proposed trip.

The Second in Command smiled softly and advised him, “Permit him to fool himself.”

“I got it, Your Excellency. One more thing.”

“Yes. Let's hear it.”

    "You have a good point. I will speak with Kay and see if he can be swapped with the manager of the dome."George hesitated before he spoke, "Since Ella is the oldest staff member, she can be elevated to the position of supervisor.""Don't think of it. She can't handle it." "Let's give it a try first.""There is no need. She may be pregnant before you know it and she would be off and on. If care is not taken, she would suffer a miscarriage due to stress.""Ha!""You don't want that, I guess.""Never.""I'm happy you got it.""I got it. Let us go by swapping him with the manager of the dome.""That is better.""I have a case to investigate at Westminster tomorrow," he informed him and studied his expressions.At Mount Olive The old man and Francis were at the junction to pick up Ella. She was exhausted when she got into the car and her husband noticed it. He drove off quickly and soon, they were at home. "Welcome back, My queen," he held her closely and said.She looked into his crav

    At The General Manager's Office.After the call, she observed that the clerk was looking at her and must have guessed the person at the other end. She was ashamed of herself but wished to have the chance to attack him and clear the air. When she found none, she created it."Why are you not looking at me?" She asked him with trouble written on her face."Ha! Must I look at you?""Do you think I love him?" She asked him with guilt written all over her face.Now, the clerk laughed euphorically but in a low tone. She smiled cynically like a troublesome child and began to wait for lunch. Soon, the GM got out of his office and announced, "I'm off for lunch.""It's okay, Boss," she said.To avoid being alone with her and getting more bashing, the clerk got up and said, "I'm going with him."Before she could answer him, he was out of the office.""Why are you scared?" she mumbled. They got into the elevator and the GM said, "Lest I forgot, inform Miss Patrick that I would like to see her by

    Despite his State of mind, he recognized the Corporal's voice."Hold on, Corporal," he said, walked to the door and opened it.Cpl. Barton saluted him at once, "Good morning, Sgt. Courtney. The GM wishes to see you. Permit me to take you along.”The despondent supervisor let out a bitter smile, returned the salute, and said, "Permission granted." He led him out of the canteen while everyone was watching them. Ella felt bad that he chose to ruin her first day at work. She was aware that she would be invited to the panel as well and braced up. The other staff members looked at her to know whether she was happy to see the supervisor arrested but her expression depicted nothing.Notwithstanding, they went back to work to ensure that the lunch would be ready on time.At The General Manager's Office After the barrister walked in, the GM sent for Stephanie and she arrived immediately."Get ready. We have a meeting.""I got it, Boss," she said and walked back to her office to get her device

    "Oh! I propose that you clarify her at once to avoid trust issues.""I will do that now that you have given me the go-ahead.""Please do. I will check on Ella to know how her colleagues welcomed her.""That's good to hear.""Bye for now."Tim connected to his device and scrolled back the footage to 7 AM when she resumed. He was thrilled to see everyone coming to welcome her and admiring her wedding ring. When the supervisor joined them, Tim was focusing on the rejoicing colleagues and did not notice him until Ella greeted him respectfully.He frowned at his hostility and watched on. When he slammed his door against her, he was distraught."What is her offense?" He murmured.When she walked out of the changing room and was stable, he was happy. At that point, he disconnected and got out of the car. Shortly, he was in George's office. Even a blind man will know that he was angry."What happened?" He asked him in astonishment.Without responding, he picked up the remote control and scrol

    In The Canteen The supervisor was expectant and had rehearsed his love lines. Ella arrived afterwards and her colleagues were happy to see her. They welcomed her one after the other and she responded with glee.Abigail was so delightful. She saw her arrival as an answered prayer. After welcoming her, she walked straight to the supervisor's office and informed him."At last, Supervisor. She is back.""Who is back?""Miss Patrick. She is back."He was excited with the information and got up from his seat at once. Abigail led the way and he followed her happily. They got to the kitchen and met her talking with her colleagues. The supervisor stood aside and waited to get her attention."Ha? Marriage looks good on you, Ella," one of them complimented her."Thank you for the compliment.""I like your wedding ring," another person said."What about the pictures?""Your husband must be very rich and handsome.""When can we meet him.""Why did you not invite us?"She only smiled at the endles

    "In my house of course," she said proudly.The clerk wondered how Samuel got to her house and who took the shots. He remembered his gossip with Tim a few minutes ago and concluded that he must have taken him there. To get the full gist, he looked at the picture again and said, "Your camera is nice.""It's not my camera. It is His Excellency's camera," she said and looked at Tim who was smiling from ear to ear.The clerk was elated to know that she had found love at last. In his euphoria, he faced her and said, "Congratulations.""Huh! Over what?" She asked him anxiously."What is the compliment about? The pictures?" Tim asked him hastily.The clerk recalled himself and said, "Pardon my slip of the tongue."At The Lobby Vincent was in a dilemma. He was uncomfortable each time he saw Barbara's face.
