AMANDA's P o V

~~~

"Get your side ready. The recording is on our possession now and we are on our way to the station."

Amidst the sound of tires screeching at the background, I heard the melodic voice of Ms. Smith speaking to me. It took me a while before my brain was able to process the information that I just heard. But the instant understanding dawn on me, my eyes bugged out. For a split second, a silly thought crossed my mind as I start to wonder if they made a pact with the devil. I knew that this idea of mine sounded nothing but absurd. However, the fact that I just had a  conversation with Ms. Nordstrome last night and then on the very next day, they were calling to inform me that they already got what we needed was what left me stupefied the most.

    Left with no choice, Mr. Yakamura started making his way towards the exit along with his men. Today was supposed to be a big day for him as well just as how important it was for Mathilde. They agreed to be business partner and planned to venture robotics together. In fact, Mathilde let him in to her plan of stealing the idea from the Alpha Tech team and he did not say anything against it so long that his IT team would be the one who would take credit on this one.Indeed, birds with the say feather, flocks together.However, the last thing that he would want to happen was for his name to be dragged with a murder case while he was overseas. Getting himself involved to this would only make things harder for him. He did not want to attract unnecessary attention towards even if it was bad publicity. Thus, as soon as Mathilde gave him the signal, he left right away with no question asked.He left without uttering a single word

    Even though Mathilde did not physically show any sign of resistance when she was asked by the authority to come with them, on the flip side, she certainly took her time to move away from her chair. Taking as much of their time as she could by dilly dallying was the most that she could do to express her defiance. However, not everyone has the time and patience necessary for them to wait at her do her thing at her own phase. So before Mathilde could even make them dance within her palms completely, Amanda already nodded her head to signal her men to escort the woman outside the room. On her way out, Mathilde purposely halted her steps to stop right at just when she was about to walk past Shantal. "Things will only get worse from here." She told Shantal with her voice laced with overwhelming menace. It was as if Mathilde was purposely trying to warn her niece about an impeding doom. However,

    Shantal held her aunt's gaze until the authority dragged Mathilde away from her sight. Outside, Mathilde was fuming but she did not let it show on her face. She kept a straight face even when she walked past her secretary. However, all it took was an eye contact for the other party to know what her boss would want her to do in its absence. Meanwhile, in Mathilde's head she was thinking that none of what was happening at her was enough to faze her. She was confident that they would not find something that they could use against her. After all. she remain unpunished for years for a reason. She had long pulled the strings at the background and she would do it without second thought if the situation woulf call for it again. She would do it time and time again without the slightest hint of hesitation because she reckoned that she could just switch to a new identity if things blow out of proportion.

    "Damn it!" Mr. Yakamura lashed out as soon as he was out of public eye. The he agressively three his shirt at his bed before turning around to face Mr. Takashi. "The police have gotten involved. I need to leave the country immediately. Those things that we discussed in front of 1096, last night---" He trailed off in the middle of his sentence as though he could not bring himself to say the word. "We gonna have to delete all of 1096's data before anyone could get their hands on him again." Mr. Takashi told Mr. Yakamura while they were in the middle of a conversation and when the other party was reminded of what happened, he became more frustrated because he recalled exposing himself in front of the robot at one occasion. "Make sure it is completely wiped. Are we clear on this?" If anything goes wrong, you will be the one taking the fall. Don't you ever forget about that." Mr. Yakamura let out an exasperated sigh after sayi

    'As long as I have the robot, I can start anew and build another identity somewhere else.' That was what she kept repeating to herself as she sat on her cell.

After all, the two of them never talked to each other for ages.Jiro used to be a good friend of hers as well.

Although he also did not directly implied that he would do it.Nonetheless, Secretary Ye considered his response as a good sign. At least, the other party was no longer adamant at turning them down.So with the same insinuating manner, she answered him back."That would make it easier for you to do your duties once you become a director. All that was left for you now is to leave Ms. Shantal Nordstrome no other choice but to step down and abdicate the position of board directory to your hands.""Ousting her is not enough.

    "You told Jodi about everything?"Mathilde asked her secretary as soon as the two of them were finally allowed to have some private conversation within the prison hall where she was currently detained. Panic was noticeably present on the other party's face when she raised her question. Meanwhile, the secretary remained silence yet that was all enough for Mathilde to guess her response and not long after that, her shoulders dropped on the side when the realization hit her."I guess she was bound to find out about it sooner or later."She muttered under her breath with despondent undertone.An exasperated sigh escaped Mathilde's lips afterward. But then, she suddenly tenses up when she recalled about something else.Leaning towards the other party all the while grabbing a hold to the iron bars, Mathilde looked around her warily first to make sure that no ears were on them.Only when she confirmed for the umpteenth time that no one was listenin

Thank you for the information."I replied and not long after that, she hung up on her because I reckoned that it would be best if I could relay this news to the other search parties. In this way they would also know where to start looking. Of course, the first one that I tried to call was my lady boss.
