At The CanteenSgt. Courtney, Ella and his team were busy with planning the day's work when she walked into his office with an obvious face.“Good morning, Sgt. Courtney,” she greeted him and ignored the rest.Ella looked up when she heard her voice and greeted her cheerfully, “Good morning, Boss.”She ignored her before she glared at her and cursed in her mind, “Pervert.”“Excuse us. I will call you back shortly,” Sgt. Courtney informed his staff members and they got up.Ella was surprised at Laura's coldness towards her gave her a searching look. She shrugged her shoulders and walked away with the rest.“Good morning, Miss Dickson. How may I help you?”She rudely sat down without being offered and looked into Sgt. Courtney's eyes.“You can help me by explaining to me why you withdrew my chef without notifying me. Is that how things are done?”Her question boxed the Sergeant into a corner because she was in the wrong place. Above all, he did not wish to say more than he knew about El
At The Front DeskLaura was greatly pleased when she got Barr. Wentworth's email and imagined what to do with two million pounds sterling.“They thought that they are smart,” she told herself and continued with her work.It was not long, Ella walked into the lobby. Due to the cold shoulders Laura gave to her previously, she retaliated by treating her with disdain as well. She walked past her and headed to the elevator. Meanwhile, Laura concluded that she was going to see Bright. She was not bothered about her greetings but concentrated on her work. Soon the elevator gates opened and she walked in.At The Legal UnitAfter Barr. Fitzgerald returned, he sent for Ella through her Supervisor. He was waiting for her when she walked in and greeted him happily.“Good morning, Barrister.”“Good morning, Miss Patrick. Kindly sit.”“Thank you for the offer,” she said and sat down.“Take a look at this email,” he said and pushed the printed copy of the email to her.She grimaced and collected the
At The Guardroom Cpl. Simpson returned to the guardroom and asked the money bag questions and he was mute. He would not like to implicate his colleagues by involving them or revealing his address.“I intend to remove it by myself,” he explained.“Where will you take it to?” He asked angrily.“I know where to take it,” he answered.The Corporal glared at him and asked, “What do you take us for?”To avoid more trouble, he kept quiet.“Get ready for your work,” he thundered.The money bag breathed freely and watched the Corporal walk away angrily.“I should have allowed them to park their car anywhere they liked,” he thought regretfully.“I have been shut out of the world,” he lamented.Nevertheless, the Corporal returned to the President's office to inform him of the development. George listened to him carefully and gave him an option.“He didn't want us to know his gang members, as though he can stop us if we are interested in them.”“You are right, General.”“If he thinks that we are
At Tim's HouseHe waited for her to answer the question, but she could not. He grinned in pleasure at her sudden loss of eloquence.“Even with four million pounds sterling, she can't do anything meaningful with her life,” he said.“Does she have two fathers? Is it the one that was chatting that was poisoned?” He asked himself and turned off his device.He walked to his room to take a nap. After changing to simple wear, he laid on the bed and closed his eyes but his phone ringtone would not allow him.“Oh, my goodness!” He exclaimed and sat up.He picked up the phone and was amazed to see the caller.“Good evening, Your Excellency,” he greeted him.“Good evening, Tim. Turn on your television if you are close to it.”“It is all right, Your Excellency,” he said and complied.He saw the Head of State of a powerful nation, Kingsland, Field Marshall Brian Foxe, boasting in his broadcast. He was threatening to wipe away a smaller and powerless nation, Oregany from the surface of the earth.“
At The Front DeskAfter George got up, he walked out of his office and headed to the Production Department. He envisaged that the Sales Manager would be with Capt. Miles to inform him of the order and he imagined rightly.Laura was upset when he saw him walking unperturbed as though there was no petition.“Why is the barrister delaying? He promised to come this morning and submit a hard copy,” she asked herself and began to wait.At The Production“I thought as much. I knew I would meet you here,” George announced joyously after greeting Capt. Miles.“What brings you, Sergeant?” Capt. Miles asked.“Concerning the order. Let us wait for clarifications from the client. He can't stop us from satisfying our regular clients,” he stated without quoting the President.“You are right. How can he monopolize us,” the Production Manager pointed out.“But he has paid,” the Sales Manager said.“We are not contesting that. But his standing order. So, keep accepting orders.”“I got it,” Capt. Abrams
He got up too and watched her walking away. “Thank you for coming.”“It is my pleasure.”Collins who had been waiting for her at the foyer got up at once and followed her. Tim was happy with the arrangements and wished to see the old man's face. To his delight, he walked into the parlor to update him on their meeting.“Old Man, do you wish to see me?” He asked pretending not to know that Ella was around.“Yes. The dietician came.”“Oh, that is good. How was your meeting?”“Our meeting went well. She recommended some herbs for me. She also recommended that I drink plenty of water.”“I see. What are the names of the herbs? I can ask Frank to get them.”The old man pouted and took the blame, “I should have written them down.”“No. She should have written them down for you. Is that how she would take care of her patient?” He asked angrily and the old man was despondent.He allowed his anger to quell before pleading on her behalf.“Don't be hard on her. She promised to give the list to
At The ComplexLaura expected to see Bright on the bus. That would help her in her conclusion about his status. To her disappointment, he was not there.“What is going on?” She asked herself and looked left and right like a pickpocket.Those who saw it were skeptical about her and wondered if she was normal.Nevertheless, Bright must taunt her. He walked to the bus and inquired, “Is Ted here?”“Look at Ted behind you,” his colleagues shouted and he turned.He feigned surprise and asked, “Why are you here? Are you not coming with me?”“I thought you wanted to give the former secretary a ride,” he answered with a silly grin, and the staff members, including the driver, burst into strident laughter.“Let's go,” he announced and they left leaving their colleagues laughing happily.The Next Day - At The HotelTim left with Richard after his breakfast and met Ambrose and his men ready. After their pleasantries, they moved and Tim was startled.“The bus driver and his attendant are citizens,
At Tim's HouseSgt. Courtney was a perfectionist and tried to imbibe the same in his workers. In addition to the other requirements, he encouraged Ella to prepare herbal soup for the old man and she did. Afterward, she turned it into a food flask.“Thank you for your advice, Sergeant. I will get going,” she appreciated him.“It is my pleasure.”Meanwhile, the old man was waiting patiently for her while different thoughts filled his mind.“I hope they have not sacked her because of yesterday's error?”“But she has not committed any offense.”“They should have allowed her to prove herself,” he hissed, ran his hand through his head, and continued to wait.Nevertheless, Collins was waiting for Ella at the canteen car park. As soon as she walked out with her stuff, he helped her to arrange them on the bus. Subsequently, she sat down and they left. She was not aware that Collins and the old man lived together so, she never bothered to ask about him.Meanwhile, the enticing aroma from her so
