Alex stood up slowly staggering out of the house as tears flowed down his face freely, as he was staggering out of the house, Rebecca stood there dumbfounded not knowing what to say to Alex, she knew he was hurt by the revelation, even though she also didn't know anything about the incident before this, she still felt something was wrong, she never believed that her husband would backstab Alex parents as they were best of friends when they were alive."Alex wait, I believe my mom has an explanation for this," Rachel came out of her hiding place as she called out to Alex trying to stop him from leaving, she could not bear to see him leave just like that.Alex stopped in his tracks, glancing back at Rachel with his red eyes, red from tears, "what does she have to say again, it's also obvious to her," he turned away, proceeding on his way."Maybe I should have never given you a chance, maybe I was wrong about you, wait for me am coming back for my revenge," he mumbled to everyone's heari
Back at Oxford, at Rachel's residence, after John had left and left everything in a mess, Rachel and her mother stood in their spot for more than an hour before they stood up and started arranging their stuff, even calling for the person that would repair the broken door and other things that were broken during the fight, they had decided not to move out because they believed that the organization would use Alex to achieve their aims, Rachel was now sure that the organization was not after their life but something in their possession, although she did not know what it was, she still confirmed it from John's actions to Alex, if not he wouldn't t have gone that far to show Alex what he had shown him.Later on, she stood up from the sofa she was sitting on, proceeding to her room ready to check on the mysterious mission given to her by her father, she was going to take it on, but little did she know that she wouldn't be able to take on the mission without Alex.-----In a luxurious villa
"Remember my daughter, if you are to take on this mission, it must be secretive, absolutely known, and known to you only, no third party must be involved, but if you don't feel like taking this mission, just destroy the flash drive and nobody would be in danger until it's discovered, but if you take it, remember that the fate of humanity lies on your hands, and you would always be in latent danger until you've completely resolved everything, but once you fail in resolving it, only death can await you, all the humans would be in danger, I will advise you not to take it on if you know you are not up to it, but I don't want to discourage you, also I don't wanna force you, but I hope you would follow what your heart tells you".Lydia blinked as she remembered her father's words, deep down she wanted to remove the flash drive and crush it, but she steeled her mind and convinced herself that she was brave enough to take on the mission given to her by her father, she didn't want to disappoin
In Cambridge, at Alex's residence, Alex sat on the sofa and looked at his aunt waiting for her to say something, she had been keeping her silence for over twenty minutes now, so the silence was awkward. As Alex was getting impatient, he did not notice that he had reverted from his depressed mood to an anxious one which was what his aunt was waiting for before telling him what he needed to know, before he could break the awkward silence his aunt beat him to it."Let me answer the question that had been lingering on your mind first, the answer is yes and also no".Alex was confused with his aunt's statement, what did she mean by the video was right and also wrong at the same time, where could it possibly go wrong he thought.Aunt Maddy looked at Alex's confused expression, smiling she asked, "do you know the job your parents do or how they became acquainted with the Red devil"."If I remember correctly before my parents died, they usually go on a business trip and leave me with you," A
Warning! Due to some things that the writer experienced while writing this chapter, it may sound boring to some readers, am very sorry for the inconvenience.-----"Alex, by the time you would be listening to this you would have become mature, maybe probably something has happened that led to your aunt's giving you the flash drive, telling you that you have a mission to do, don't blame your aunt for not telling you all this while, I was the one who asked her not to tell you until something of great significance happens, I don't know what it may be, but you have to trust whatever your aunt says at that time, as it's the absolute truth, I hope you would be able to achieve the task have left for you," the voice recording ended, it was as if his father knew he would never be coming back ever again, thinking of this fresh tears flowed down from his eyes, making him somber, but he soon sobered up.Next, he moved the cursor, playing the video, he knew that the remaining three would be detai
The next morning, a ray of sunlight shot into Alex’s eyes, opening his eye while yawning loudly, he used a hand to cover his mouth, while stretching his body at the same time, looking outside through the window, he noticed that the sun had risen from the horizon, jumping out from his bed immediately he noticed the sun, he cursed inwardly on how he had slept so late.Standing up, he went into the bathroom to wash up, after that he went to the parlor, where he met his food on the dining table, while his aunt was busy with her phone, after he greeted her, he rushed to the dining table gobbling up his food in a manner that showed he didn’t eat the previous night, which wasn't true.Aunt Maddy glanced at him from the corner of her eyes before she continued what she was doing, Alex finished gobbling up his food very soon, he exclaimed inwardly at how sweet the food was before standing up, preparing to go to Rachel’s house.“Aunt am off to Rachel’s house, I may not be back for some days,’ he
“What the hell did you just say? The haunted building?” Rachel yelled immediately after Alex finished his statement.”Babe, calm down, nothing’s going to happen,” Alex said in a bid to convince her, he knew that it wouldn’t be easy to make her follow him to the haunted, but he had no choice, that was their only lead to know more about the mission.“What do you mean by I should calm down, haven’t you heard the story of those who went in before being traumatized after they came out,” Rachel shot back.“Relax, nothing is going to happen,” he replied.“And so what, do you know what we are going to face in there? Why are you so confident that going to the building is our only lead?” Rachel shot back at Alex again. Alex was tongue-tied and didn’t know what to say again, “but that’s the only clue we have left,” he replied.Rachel was not to be that easily done out, she knew that Alex was right, but she was having none of it, she didn’t want to go to the lab, not because she was afraid but b
Exploring the building.The lab was as dark as anything, nothing could be seen in there, the two proceeded inside curiously when they entered, they discovered that it was so dark that they could not see their fingers, ”what are we going to do now,” Alex by Rachel’s side whispered slowly into her ear.“How would I know, I can’t see a damm thing,” Rachel replied furiously, she wondered why Alex was asking her such a question when he was the one who suggested they come here in the first place.“Ohhh, I get it now,” Alex muttered, immediately he brought out his phone and switched on the torchlight of the phone brightening up the place a little.“You idiot, why didn’t you think of this earlier,” Rachel by his side snapped at him angrily bringing out her phone and switching on the light.Despite having switched on the light of their phones, they were still unable to see clearly, “let’s go outside,” Rachel suddenly said to Alex."Why should we go outside,” Alex asked."Don’t ask any question
Alex looked at the soldiers who surrounded them with a smirk on his face. He knew there was nothing he could say that would convince them not to shoot when Clinton gives the order."So are you willing to surrender now," Clinton smiled, walking toward Alex, stopping only when he was some meters away from him.Hey had mistaken the smirk on Alex's face as that of fear thus which led to his confidence.In a normal circumstance, he wouldn't have dared to go near Alex as he knew he was very cunning and could do anything to him."And what do you plan on doing to me if I don't surrender?" Alex replied with a smile.Clinton's expression became ashen when he heard Alex's words. He wanted to go forward and strangle him at the moment but he couldn't do it.He was sure if he went any closer to Alex he was going to use him as a hostage to escape from the place."Aren't you going to give up? It's futile if you think you can escape with her in one piece." "And how's that your business?" Alex frowned
"I would ask you once again Alex, What's your stand?" Clinton frowned when he saw that Alex didn't reply."I refuse," Alex replied, smiling smugly.Clinton's expression became ashen when he heard Alex's reply."How dare you?" Clinton gritted his teeth glaring at Alex.If it was not because he could not beat him, he would have long used force.He must use this opportunity to teach Alex a lesson he would never forget in his lifetime.Alex ignored Clinton and continued playing with his phone. The professor's expression wasn't good either as he could smell gunpowder in the air."I hereby order you on behalf of the government to hand it over," Clinton glanced at Alex ordering with a smirk.The professor's face became even more ashen when he heard Clinton's words.He had been expecting the day Clinton would use the government's name to try to get what he wanted.Even though he was sure that it was the higher-ups that had instructed him to come to collect it, he didn't expect them to be out
Before any of them could react, a man with concealed features walked into the room in large strides.Alex looked at the man who had just barged in uninvited but didn't say anything.Instead, he looked at the professor as he was sure the professor would know the man.And not much to his surprise, he saw the professor's expression become distorted from anger.Alex smiled seeing this, even though he didn't know what relationship the man and the professor had."Old man, how have you been?" The man smiled as he glanced at the professor with a mocking smile."Clinton, what are you doing here?" Professor Wilfred gritted his teeth as he managed to ask the man directly, ignoring his question."Your temper is just as it had always been...""I've told you old man many times that your temper won't change a thing." The man smiled mockingly, ignoring the professor's questions."Get out!" The professor pointed at the door signifying the man to leave."Ohh no professor, you have some visitors." The m
Not long, the four reached the home of the elderly in Cambridge located at.Parking the car, they came out of it walking with the items they bought at the mall on the way."Do you think the authorities would allow us inside," Eric whispered to Alex."Yeah, they would allow us. Why do you ask?" Alex turned to look at Eric."Because I feel it's awkward visiting," he replied."Well, I don't think there is something awkward in it visiting the elderly. It just reminds us of our grandparents," Alex smiled.Eric nodded and didn't say anything again. Soon they reached the gate. After the securities finished checking them they entered the building.The building was a tall and magnificent one painted white. There were flowers all around. The air in the surroundings was pleasant and nice to breathe in. The four took in some of the air as they smiled.The four walked into the building looking around. Immediately they entered they were surrounded by the elderly who had longed for people to talk wi
The three sat down beside Alex's bed. While Elizabeth and Eric sat down beside Alex's bed. Rachel sat directly on Alex's leg on the bed."I thought you would still be sleeping." Rachel said kissing Alex on the cheeks."How's your health now," Elizabeth asked looking at Alex."Am fine now." Alex yawned loudly."But how came you were beaten till you fainted." Eric suddenly asked."Well, you see. I was attacked by some enemies of the organization I work for who wanted me dead." Alex lied. He couldn't tell them the truth.Eric and Elizabeth shook their heads. This was the theory they had come up with and it turned out to be the case.Suddenly Alex's stomach growled and a pang of hunger hit him.Elizabeth, Eric, and Rachel looked at Alex. Alex rubbed his embarrassedly as silence descended the place.Suddenly the door to Alex's room opened and aunt Maddy came in."Alex you've woken up. I was about to come to wake you up to eat." Aunt Maddy said breaking the silence."Ohh yeah, aunt. Am very
Alex opened his eyes slowly, everywhere was blurry at first, but it soon became clear, he felt a spinning headache, it was as if someone was pounding on his head, he couldn't understand what was happening.He looked around his surroundings and noticed he was at home, on his bed, suddenly the splitting headache became stronger as he screamed in pain loudly, memory of what had happened came rushing into his head as he remembered everything.He remembered the last thing he saw, was Rachel drifting with the car she assembled at the underground lab to hit Richard who was hitting him, then Richard threw him at the car in an attempt to stop Rachel, but Rachel drifted the car in a manner that he was able to land at the back seat, that was the last seat he saw before he lost consciousness.He wondered how Rachel was able to escape the men and bring him home from Wales, cause he was sure that the men would chase after her.Rachel who was sitting on the sofa in the sitting room heard Alex's scre
Due to some technical problem the writer had problems in writing, I hope you can bear with him.Sorry for the inconveniences.----Lydia looked at her father and the other man as they go into the helicopter, she had lots of questions running through her mind, why were her father and the other man so desperate that they went as far as to go to Rachel's house? what was it they were after, could the thing be so important they had to forgone everything and chase after a girl and a guy who had fainted?She watched as the helicopter rose in the air wondering where they were headed this time, she wished she could ask her father all the questions in her mind, but she knew that right now he wouldn't give her a satisfactory answer to her questions.---On the highway of Wales. Rachel sat in the car thinking about what had been happening ever she met Alex again, from the run to the accident, then the attack at her house, to the truth about their parent's past, and then this haunted building, was
"Searching for the perfect match," the Al voice was heard again.The top of Rachel's car automatically opened and something like a scanning machine came out from the top scanning its surroundings, after some seconds of searching, the machine was retracted and went back into the car."Perfect match found, changing structure and color, please let go of the steering, would go in automated driving mode," the AI said again.Immediately, Rachel let go of the steerings as she watched, suddenly she felt the car she was in began to restructure itself, she could feel as some parts of the car enlarged while some parts became smaller, it was as if someone or something was remodeling it, all this while the car didn't stop and continued to move at the same place Rachel had left it, after sometimes, the Al voice was heard again, "camouflage completed, deactivating automated drive."Immediately Rachel took hold of the steerings again as she continued driving, but this time she didn't drive fast but r
Harry and Richard stood rooted to their spots, there was dust everywhere, but they could care less about it, they stared at the hole in the wall, only they knew how strong and hard the wall was, but here the car had broken through the wall with just a ramming, they had not believed their eyes at first, thinking the car would become spoilt the instant it hit the wall, but it was then they realize the car had indestructible features to its already amazing features.Their eyes burned with hatred, Drake and Fernando had not told them the car had this feature, they wished they could go back in time and kill the both once again, but there was nothing they could, just now the car was in their reach, but now they had lost it, if not for the fact that they had underestimated Alex and Rachel, this wouldn't have happened, instantly the two regretted not stopping Rachel immediately they entered the garage and saw what she was doing."Mobilize your men, they should follow that girl," Richard said t
