Henry, you take them to a safe hotel and lodge. You can speak to the police commissioner in Lagos about your mother when you get there,’ Cole said to Henry after asking Nicholas to put on the traffic indicator of the car.

They had gotten out of Solace Hotel premises in the car Cole and Tarasha drove into the place. Cole was sitting in front with Nicholas who drove, Henry, madam Henrietta and Chief Gab were sitting at the backseat of the car.

‘So where are you guys going to?’ Henry asked, after Nicholas pulled over to a curb.

‘To finish the boss’ assignment,’ Cole replied him and Henry understood what he meant. Nicholas got out of the driver’s side after Cole stepped out and Henry also got out from the backseat. The car keys were handed over to Henry. ‘Please Henry, be safe.’

He could see people there looking up and pointing at him as his legs f

He also identified a few undercover agents blending with the crowd of normal citizens, keeping their senses keen, ready to stroke the trigger and waste some d*mn slugs on any criminal's chest.
