Chapter 21- Success
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Three weeks later, Mayor Mount sat comfortably on the not so wide sofa with one leg crossed over the other thigh and smiled broadly at Tony, the hist of the TV program, Voice Of Newland.
This didn't feel like the other time he came. That time, he was there trying to keep his promise of doing anything Reyes wanted him to do.
But today, it wasn't like that. He was very happy to be here. He had everything under control. He was in top of the world. The Mayor of Newland.
"Everything was a 'turn around'" Tony said after being able to stop smiling. He had been smiling since. His smile was probably inspired by Mayor Mount powerful smiles.
"A 'turn around'" Mayor Mount scoffed. He was amused by the term. He was right to say that anyway. No one expected what had happened some days back.
"Isn't it?" Tony would argue that. "You were very behind in the poll and in just one night, everything changed. What do you call that if not a 'turn around'?" Tony seemed dif

Raymond pointed his elbow outward and Grace slid her hand into the curve. Raymond held her close and they walked together to the front of the new building.Raymond kept glancing at Grace without forgetting to smile whenever he did that. Grace was extraordinarily beautiful today. She was dressed in a pink dress, tiny at the top matching her slim shape. There was a rope made with the same material of the dress tied around her flat abdomen.The lower part was funneled. It was three or four times larger than the upper part. It was wide at the tip after springing from the waist which seemed to be the tightest part of the dress.These designers are crazy. They were, as they could fathom this would bring the beauty out more.The reason why they were at this party was unclear to him. He saved a whole school,students and teachers. That couldn't earn him a political recognition. And if it earned him that, he wouldn't care about it.Everyone was gathered

Raymond came out to the coffee stand to get his late morning drink as usual. That was how he had been doing for the past three months he had worked in the institute named after him, as the chief consultant.He used to describe his new job as 'the idle manager employed to append signature' whenever he talked about it with Grace.Despite the rumor that coming out to the coffee stand every morning to drink had earned him a name among his subordinates, Chief Consultant of Coffee. That didn't stop him from embarking on the routine.After taking sips from the cup, he brought out his phone and made a call to Grace as he always did."Grace Brunt" Grace voice spoke on the phone. She was definitely joking. She knew who would call her at this time. She must have been expecting it."Miss Brunt. How long before we start sharing a surname?" Raymond carried on the jokes. He was sure Grace would want it continued."A wedding contract" Grace replied ve

"Raymond has been kidnapped" Grace spat out breathlessly before Mayor Mount could take a seat. She had already told him on phone and was surprised to see him so calm. That only meant she didn't take her serious."Kidnapped?" Mayor Mount seemed not to believe his ears. He couldn't understand why anyone would want to kidnap Raymond. He was definitely thinking Grace was not sure of what she was saying.Grace nodded affirmatively. That was the only thing that could have happened. A car driven violently followed by series of beating. It only translated to kidnap in her comprehension and understanding."When was that?" Mayor Mount asked again. He adjusted himself as he sat down. He was very relaxed. He was surely thinking there was no cause for alarm."About an hour ago" Grace answered briefly. She knew Mayor Mount would be more relaxed than he was, by hearing that. She looked around maybe Brittany could pop up from thin air. She would understand her restlessne

Grace moved close to him. It was obvious he had some things he wanted to say."It was a red car. I don't remember the number. There is a dent on the driver's door" the man explained excitedly, he had ignored the policeman."Where were they headed?" Grace signaled to him to calm down."They took the Rickey Road. It seemed they are going out of Newland. I destroyed the wire and called them as soon as they left. Instead of following their trail, they arrested me" the coffee man stared the policeman down."I slipped a phone into his pocket. It is my son's phone" the coffee man opened up while staring at the police officer wickedly."Why didn't you tell us that earlier?" the policeman asked angrily."The number" Grace said weakly. She was infuriated by the police officer intrusion. This was what he was supposed to have done.The coffee man brought out a small piece of paper out from his pocket."That's it" he handed it o

"Did she just dodged that?!" Raymond screamed in amazement. He couldn't close his mouth. He became very afraid more than before when he thought she could get killed."Put him in the car!" the third guy shouted at the others. Both of them forced Raymond into the car. He struggled but couldn't resist as his hands were tied.The other two joined and were raining bullets at Grace but she kept weaving swiftly and evaded all of the bullets.The guys ran out of bullet with Grace still coming at them. Out of fear, they rushed into the car. The first guy took the wheels and ignited the engine."Run her down" the third guy yelled again. Raymond was breathless. The first guy turned the car around to face Grace. He hit her and ran the car over her. Her bones made some series of weird cracking sounds like they were breaking.He stopped the car probably to look back at what he had done to her body. Before he complete a turn of his neck. Grace was alr

Grace continued smacking the steering wheel as she drove recklessly and violently through the busy road angrily. She scanned both sides of the road looking for the red car that was conveying Raymond. She couldn't find it.She was back to normal not as the weird creature she seemed earlier. There were bruises on her arms, remnants of the injuries she sustained back at the motor pack."I lost them" she whispered sadly to herself."I must not lose them. I will find them" she continued muttering like it was a mantra on which her success depended. She dribbled the car through the busy street as the vehicles on the road were now slowing down. They were finally static. The traffic light had shown red. She became frustrated. She dropped her head on the wheel. She quickly lifted it back up. Something caught her eyes when she was dropping her head.It was the red car, it was also stuck in the traffic. The feeling of happiness and fe

Raymond was restless at the backseat. He kept turning towards the rear maybe he could catch a glimpse of Grace. That was very close. He nearly got saved from these clueless abductors at the traffic light.The three kidnappers must have been scared to death. He could hear their heavy, speedy heartbeat."That is the same girl from the parking lot, right?" the second guy asked Raymond. He looked puzzled. Raymond didn't answer him. He had no reason to reply him."That is just an ordinary girl, am I hallucinating before?" the third guy laughed. "I could break her with a finger""She didn't want to freak people out. That was in a busy place. She was faster than bullets" the first guy said like he was trying to warn the third guy.Raymond listened through like he was not there with them. He didn't know what to wish for. Maybe the Grace from the parking lot that looked weird but strong with supernatural powers or the one banging the car trying

"Fifty grands" Dennis shouted back.Raymond wished he could scream enough from the car for Grace to hear. Dennis wouldn't free him no matter how much he took from her."I don't have that in cash" she paused briefly. "Let's go to the nearest ATM and I will give it to you"Grace didn't have that money but it was obvious she had a plan. Raymond couldn't understand what the plan was.Dennis came to the front window. He opened the door but didn't come in. Instead he bent his head down to see Reed's face"Go to the nearest ATM. I ride with her" he turned to show Raymond his face. He was smiling. That didn't look good to Raymond. Raymond stared at him wickedly."No, don't worry. It's not like we are going to have sex" Dennis slammed the door shut.Grace had entered back into the car. She thought she would trail them, when they moved to the ATM as they agreed. But Dennis was coming towards her. She was very scared. T

"You should feel better now" Raymond put the cup back on the table smiling."You mean the wine is good?" Grace asked, she was pretending she didn't know what he was talking about."No. Not the wine. I am talking about the daughter of the city" he had opened up straight, she wouldn't have a chance of turning his words around anymore."She's good, but her judgement is somehow different from mine" she complained a bit."Two different people can't do the same thing same way. There will always be a slight difference" he explained."I have nothing against her but I'm just thinking operating like this. The Mayour won't be able to back her" she was right about that."She doesn't want it too. And this evil people give more respect to harsh treatment like such" he added."I'm sure we are not here to talk about the daughter of the city" she was becoming boring with their conversation. She stared at her cup weirdly.They had come out to a

The computers pinged as Grace had said. Laura had been waiting for some time to hear that.She couldn't believe it at first. The pinging was not that loud but it was noticeable. She dashed over to the ammunition side and picked up the sword.She started feeling weird. She felt like she couldn't do this anymore. She stood there in front of the weapon. She wanted to take more than just a sword.But it would be useless to take what she wouldn't use. The computer pinged again. Time was going. She wanted to go but she was very much in need of a little push.Maybe she could just make a call to Grace. She would be helpful. They had become something like best friends.She hurried to get her and make the call. Time was no longer on her side. The call took like eternity to get connected, maybe that was because she was calling from an underground."Laura?" Grace said excitedly.There was nothing funny about this. It was damn serious but she had

Protocols were now being duly observed. Raymond and his accompanies were not allowed in until Reyes came out to them.He waved at them to come over."I'm sorry for the delay. Everything has changed since the attempt on the Mayor's life" he apologized as they walked over to him.They all walked together into the living room to meet Mayor Mount where he was comfortably seated."Raymond, Grace" he smiled to welcome them."And you, your face looks familiar" he pointed at Laura.Raymond was a little bit afraid. He wished Mayor Mount had not remembered when she tried to kill him."We met at their base" Laura said slowly."Yeah, I remember. You are that little girl that was in their base. You know I forgot what you were doing there that day" Mayor Mount seemed to have really forgotten. He was visibly trying to recollect."Actually, we are here because of her" Grace broke in suddenly. She was going straight to the point.

Raymond was coming down the stairs. He saw as Grace kept changing the TV channels. She seemed not to find the one suitable for her present mood.He skimmed down to join. He sat by her side without saying anything. She obviously had a lot running through her mind but she was obviously not going to tell him anything except he incited words from her."Maybe TV isn't what you need right now" he grabbed the remote,took it from and gently placed it on the table."What do you think I need then?" she folded her arms. it seemed she was not pleased with that."A good company like me,that has always been working even when you are stuck on the Millionaire Island" he joked.Grace smiled subtly. She was not enjoying the moment as she wanted."What are you thinking about?" he asked."That's my problem. I don't just know where to channel my mind" she shook her head."You really need that before you could channel the TV" he chuckled.She

Raymond was seated by the side of the hospital bed with a newspaper in his hand He wasn't really reading it. He kept checking Grace If she had woken up from her deep sleep.She would wake soon. She had been slept for a long time. She opened her eyes slowly and closed them back immediately like the lights were hurting her eyes."Raymond" she whispered. "Are you there, is that you?" she asked with her eyes closed."Why don't you open your eyes and confirm?" he replied her casually."I'm just confused seeing that in your hand. A publication? Really?" she had not opened her eyes yet and she was already taunting him."Are you okay?" he leaned towards her and asked."I feel better" she moaned. She opened her eyes and sat up."No, no. You have to rest" he quickly retorted. He felt she should be down there on her back.Grace was just looking at him with surprise. She didn't yield to his yearning."I guess I am still alive" she l

"Are you okay?" Raymond asked Grace. lied down on the floor. He gasped. He was exhausted."I have never been better" she said despite all the obvious pain she was going through.She also laid on her back breathing slowly to relax. Hugh sat and rested his back against the wall. He was devastated. It was definitely his first time to kill a man.He was seriously having a conversation within himself. He was raising his hand up above his every now and then.Probably regretting what he had done or he was trying to encourage himself that he had to do it."They say that is how you feel after you have your first kill" Grace chuckled and pointed to Hugh."He will surely get over it" Raymond said assuringly. He was sure of that. Hugh was a person with some facets of a bad guy. It shouldn't be so hard for him."Which makes me remember, Ray. You never had a moment like this. You never felt bad after your first kill. You are not very human" Grace r

Jansen had already heard a series of gunshots inside the building. Not long later, another shots were fired. He wondered what was happening.These guests didn't look like people who could shoot except the city hunter and his guy. And these guns were actually the guns brought by him and his men.He could denote that easily from the sounds of the rounds. He wondered why Dray or Morton or both of them would have been shooting like that unless the situation called for it.He was in awe what the situation could be. He was also having negative thoughts maybe his mem had been overpowered and subdued. He had to do something rather than waiting for them here.He brought out his handgun and headed towards the room. He waited by the first room and listened attentively. It was very quiet. He moved over to the door of another room.He was still trying to catch a sound with his ears when he saw bullets casing right ahead. He walked slowly aiming his gun forward.

Raymond and Grace had gathered all the others in Susan's room. The guests were definitely expecting to see this device they claimed to have found."I don't think we need to show them the real thing" Raymond whispered to Grace. He had already seen the hungry looks on their faces. The hunger to see what the device looked like."Let's just show it to them, to boost their confidence and make them trust us" Grace assumed. She must be thinking the guests might get annoyed if they weren't allowed to see it."They will be on to us soon, if we spent more time here without giving them a feedback" Hugh complained. It seemed he was urging others to hurry them up in handing over the device.He had been staring hard at Raymond and Grace as they had been having mouth to ear conversation. That seemed to have stirred up his anger."I thought you brought us on the fact that you have found this thing?" Mrs Summers said in her old weak voice. She must ha

Raymond and Grace walked along the hallway after everyone had entered into different rooms.Raymond attempted opening a door at room but Grace stopped him immediately. He was stunned."Things like this are not kept inside rooms. Vaults are built to house them" she explained."These people are not looking for treasures and not gold bars. It is something, like a part of nuclear weapon as one of them told me" Raymond argued."No one keeps nuclear weapons in a room also. They are hidden underground in most cases" she was still determined she was right about her opinion."Underground like basement?" Raymond felt she was making sense with what she said."Yeah" she moaned."Then let's get to the basement then" he asserted and walked forward with fast paces and Grace following him. He stopped suddenly."We won't get there unless we are outside" he said in regret."They won't let us go out. And we have to get this thing before th
