“Now tell me what it is..” Chad beckons for me to explain.“There is not much to explain. I will simply be taking credit for killing the Lieutenant.” I inform him and he sighs.“Don’t try to convince me otherwise, because I am not changing my mind.” I add and he chuckles lightly.“Trust me, I’m not. This would be payback for Naomi paralyzing you, she crossed a line.” He says.“So what do you need me to do?” He asks and James park the car right in front of the airport.We have arrived.“Let’s hurry, we don’t have much time.” Robert says as he opens his side of the door.He gets down and so does Carlos and James. I am the last one to leave the car.“Umm..Chad, I would need to quickly block Naomi from making any international calls.” I tell him.“Oh, so she can’t get in touch with Russell.” Chad hits the point.“Okay, it would take a while, but I’m on it.” He adds.We all are now walking
The private jet is out of fuel, which inevitably means that I have to make an emergency landing.With me being Wanted, this is going to be hard. “How far are we from London?” James asks frantically.This is serious, but it seems comical watching James react like this. He is almost always stoic and nonchalant. But he is genuinely afraid for his life and for ours too.I check the coordinates and I realize that we have been flying for a while now, for we are literally in London already.“We’re here, we’re in London.” I tell him and he takes in deep and steady breaths to calm himself.I take my seat at where the pilot is to sit and I begin to take the plane off auto pilot.I have not been in London for years, but my memory is still sharp and I can remember a lot.“If we can remain flying for about..” I say as I look at the watch on my wrist.“For about nine more minutes, then we would be able to reach an o
James despite how he was “alarmed” at first is now calm though we are going towards the runway with growing speed.“Any ideas?” I seek from James and he looks deep in thought.“Okay. To begin the slow flight maneuver, clear the area and gradually reduce thrust from cruise power and adjust the pitch to allow the airspeed to decrease while maintaining altitude. As the speed of the airplane decreases, note a change in the sound of the airflow around the airplane.” James informs me and I gape.What the hell? This is impressive!“Wow.” I say and he shrugs with a smile.“That is, if my memory serves me right.” He replies.“No, you’re absolutely right. That would work!” I say with hope in my voice.“So let’s start with reducing thrust from the cruise power.” James say and we do exactly that.After we follow his instruction, nothing much changes.“It’s not working.” I complain and he blinks rapid
“This is private property.” I hear one of them says as they walk closer to us.I’m contemplating on running, but that won’t be such a wise idea considering these people have German shepherds.“Should we run?” Carlos asks and I shake my head as to say no.I can still hear the sirens getting louder and the police have not arrived yet, so that means that these men are just normal security guards stationed at the airfield.“I will handle this.” I say as both men walk towards the wired fence, when they reach it, I notice that there is a gate not too far from where we climbed.We must have been in so much rush that we didn’t notice it.They both have huge winter jackets over their uniforms, for it is cold.I don’t really feel the cold though, it might be the adrenaline still coursing through my veins.Once the gate is opened, both guys walk up to us and they study us.“What were you all doing in there?” The b
We all walk into the house and we are led to our various rooms. Robert and I share a huge room while the others have a bedroom all to themselves.It is already getting dark and Robert just came from a shower.His hair is wet and his upper body is uncovered while his lower one has a white towel wrapped around him.“That was a much needed shower.” He comments and I smile.I have a laptop on the bed and I am trying my best to get to Russell, but no luck.Chad too has been trying but it’s like the man just dropped off the face of the earth.“Have you gotten to him yet?” Robert asks as he searches in the closet for something to wear.The closets are conveniently filled with clothes for Robert and I, really nice ones that fit perfectly. What a coincidence.“Nope.” I say, popping the p.“I think I am going to try calling in the living room, it has better reception.” I say and Robert sighs loudly, as if somethi
After a few seconds of silence, the Lieutenant finally speaks.“Is that so now?” He asks, and I feel like I’m being questioned by a lecturer at college.“Yes, I can email it to you this moment.” I reply.Chad eyes look hopeful as he watches me speak to the Lieutenant.“This is a pleasant surprise, I didn’t expect you to get the job done this soon.” He confesses.“I must applaud you.” He compliments and a sense of guilt washes over me.The Lieutenant was clearly not killed by me, I am just taking credit for what I did not do. “Are you still there?” Russell asks and his words pulls me from my thoughts. I think he said something, but I did not quite catch it.“I’m here..I’m here.” I answer.Chad is giving me a look. I’m guessing he is wondering why I froze up while talking to Russell.“I said that you should do that, email the proof to me.” Russell says calmly.“Of course, sir. I would d
When we break the kiss, he has a pleased look on his face as he holds my hips loosely.James and Carlos look amused for Chad is attempting to dance, which is a disaster.“Did you two win the lottery or something?” Robert asks and I scoff playfully.“The lottery has nothing on us...we literally just hit the jackpot!” I celebrate and Robert gapes slightly.“You mean...is it the million dollars?” He asks and I shake my head as to say no.“Not million, Robert. A freaking billion dollars!” I say and he gasps.A look of relief and bliss crosses his face as he pulls me in for another kiss.“That means you’re retired, right?” He asks once we break the kiss and I nod.He then releases me and starts to dance too. It is very comical to see he and Chad try to dance, especially when there is no music playing.James walk to me and speaks.“May I see the laptop?” He gestures towards the machine on the bed.
I have never felt this angry in a very long time.“Ma’am, are you alright?” One of the waiters walk up to me and asks.I don’t reply, I simply tip the coffee cup over, causing the content in it to spill.Every single person in the coffee shop is looking at me with baffled looks.I take in a deep breath and I march out of the place.I don’t think I would ever be served there again, but I don’t give a damn.Oh, I’m so sorry for Jen. She decided to make an enemy out of the devil. I will not only make her pay, I will make every person she cares about to suffer.Starting with her stupid uncle, Charles. I will kill him with my bare hands.No one cons me and gets away with it! ***Jen’s POV***Today is Saturday and damn, I feel great!I am a billion dollars richer and I am in the UK with the man I love, what could be better?Life is good.“Where are you heading?”
