2024-10-29 19:42:56While we were talking, we heard the booing of an helicopter outside the building , it sounded as
though it was moving closer, I looked around , hoping to find an explanation. The guards seemed as confused as I was , I could hear people jumping down , their feet echoed as though they wore hefty boots .The guards left us and began going outside to check what the commotion was about , we heard shouts and two gunshot , we didn't know who died or who was killing whomThe door burst open and we saw two African American men on clothes which seemed like
uniforms.The first made his way and began untying my mum, the second hesitated and began untying me too ."Who are you people, who sent you"" Ma'am I think , this not a time for questions , we are just following directives , and you're safe now "With that they led us to the helicopter outside , we flew to Lagos and at lagos we were taken to an already waiting jet , whoever our savior is must be very rich and influential. But what does he want?.While on the flight I was really scared in as much as I was relieved to go far from santiago, my head was too messed up to think."Hello , yes Boss , we got there in time ""There are here and safe""No we didn't "Who is his Boss?ACE'S POV
I had just finished making out with the sexy brunette I picked from the club yesterday when Jason's call came in."Where are they""There are here and safe ""Did you leave traces ""No we didn't " with that I ended the call.That was all i needed to hear, turning my head I met the the rosy lips of the brunette, we were at it all day and she is still not tired, such prowess for a lady , well that's how I loved them.It wasn't my tradition to keep them more than a day and the lady in my bed seems to want to stay more .
Getting up I wrapped the bedspread over my body headed to the bathroom to shower and prepare for the visitors I was expecting,I couldn't let them meet me like this , although Nigeria to canada was over five hours . After showering I came inside and still met the lady in my bed.
"You should get going" I told her "are you pursuing me?"
I didn't reply her , I wore my suit and left , coming down the stairs I met my cleaner Andrew.
"Good morning Boss"
"Make sure you get rid of the lady upstairs and take note of her face , I never want her in here again, I've settled with her "
"Yes sir".
