She turned and looked at him before managing to get up and go to the room`s table where her phone was. She answered it. “Allo. Mrs. Dubila on the phone.” Feeling very weak from the sleep effect.

It was pretty going quick. Franck cruised towards the direction of Mountain Hill hotel. He had nothing in his mind than to end this nonsense once and for all. He was bound to finish the job this evening. Even if he had to pay the heavy price which was death upon himself. Mountain Hill hotel was his last bus stop and he knew it. There was no room for errors at this stage of the things. He had already prepared himself psychologically. Only God could judge him on his actions. He was just an angry and frustrated father trying to put things to order in his life. Before the worst could befall his entire family from every angle. Mountain Hill hotel was made up of sparky lights decorated with Christmas-like display on the front yards; giving the hotel a technical seduction and scintillations. The reception was also a very important part for the hotel as a high gear protocol could be

Forty minutes after, they were in Brando`s house. They were precisely at the garage sector. Frank was tied on a chair. He hadn`t regained consciousness yet; lacking awareness and the capacity for sensory perception as if asleep or dead. Brando was standing and looking at him as his remaining and savior bodyguard was standing behind him. In a temper of waiting for the next order. Franck finally took to consciousness. He looked left and right, then quickly understood he has been taken captive. He was in the hands of Brando whom he had wanted to capture for facts finding. This was so bad for him. Brando stood still without saying a word, turned and looked at his bodyguard and made a sign with his right had. Showing he should go ahead. The latter went to where Franck was sitting; stretched his left hand and held Franck`s jacket with power and drew him closer to him. Then gave him a series of punches on the face. Leaving Franck to fall

It was a cruel and gloomy night. Franck left Madame Ugochi`s perimeter quickly he could. Cruising fast to the boogie corner of Makepeville. Big Tower lights, and most expensive nightclubs all were left behind by Emeka. Once again in his mind, he knew he had wasted human lives. Two people dead due to their greed. In the act of reaping from where they did not sow. Easy acquisition of money mindless who`s in front. In what might be termed as indiscriminate scamming. A raw face of the human wickedness. Indiscriminate scammers are the cruelest and most diabolic pranksters. People with no remorse. Who`re always on the run and lonely. The most heartless in the industry who won`t hesitate to begin their evilness. For them every creature is a potential prey, be it a neighbor, a friend, a tribe`s person, a relative, a fellow citizen or a foreigner, all of them are the same

Franck arrived at the spot twenty five minutes after separating from Diego. The area was a vast pace with very few houses around. He has never been in this neighborhood before. But knew of its existence. The place was a kind of hidden area to be straight in description. A pauperization zone. Being born and bred in Makepeville, every corner in that city Franck had an idea of or had passed there once in his lifetime. He looked for a more discrete corner. Voided of nuisance and quick alert signals. To where it was having a bird view of Madame Ugochi front house. Franck in his stratagem gave a distance of about two hundred meters. Left his driver sit for the long sit behind. After collecting and mounting his sniper rifle from where it was at the back boot. His jeep car was kind of smoked and by the fall of the day you could hardly see any person within. From his vantage position,

The day was gone. Franck arrived home safely when Jane had not yet returned. It was about 5:30pm. He was very satisfied with the time he had just spent with his true friends. Talking with his brother abroad. And the divine disclosure which they`ve just had through his wife which was also a soul healing. All these in one day, it was a bit of relief considering what they were going through. Well, there was no doubt about it, if it was the divine intention then guess it had yielded it fruit grandiosely. He sat on the couch in his house taking another glass of wine. Thinking of the way forward. Then he removed the contact card that madam V-Boot of ‘Naija Plates’ had given him. He kept an eye on the piece of card for about five minutes. Then left for the store room where the computers and the things he took from Spiritus’s domiciliate were. He took out the laptop, put it on and scrolled to pictures sect

After parking their car at a nice spot, Franck Dubila and his team of two entered in a seductive restaurant called ‘Naija Plates’. When they got in, they were received by a sales mate who showed them the way in and where to sit. As in appreciatory mood he concocted. “You`re welcome to ‘Naija plates’ my Ogas (Nigerian expression of Sir, elder, respect; for males appellations only). On our list we have gari and okro soup, pounded yam and egusi soup, Water-fufu and ogbono soup and lastly rice and stew. All cooked in the pure Nigerian style.” The guys all looked at themselves then laughed mockingly. As to say, ‘What was all that?’ It was their first time from their novice attitude. “Well guys, let everyone give himself a chance to discover.” While looking at them in a foxy manner. Then in a boyish style to

It was a journey of about three kilometers. As Franck was driving with his friends, he recognized. “Guys I must admit that it`s been very long. So how is business going on?” he asked. James took the lead. “Well everything is going fine. We have just been worried about you and Jane.” Mathew followed. “True brother. I had not stopped wondering what`s really going on. It`s really hard you know.” Looking at Franck in sympathy as he cruised them along towards Church Avenue. “Seriously bro, this issue had not stopped boiling my stomach. We really want Anthony back. We want your immediate family back. And without Junior, the nuclear circle will be incomplete.” He shared his sincere feeling with him. “I do take account of everything.
