At Tim's House The outing was a joyous one for the family but Tim wished to know why George was disrespectful and invited him to his study.“What happened in the morning, George? I told you that I don't want the boys to come with us but you were bent on having your way,” he asked him angrily.Tim regretted his actions when he saw his wet eyes because his confidence may be harmed. He locked eyes with him for a while and looked away without a word. They were silent for some minutes before he spoke.“I grew up without siblings and it was difficult for me. They are the only siblings I have and I can't see them sad.”Tim was calm but digested his words. Afterward, he declared, “We both suffered the same thing as children, but we should not over-pamper them because of our pasts.”Instead of answering, he looked askance at him, and he continued, “If not, they may never be independent, and that is not good for any of us.”“I got it, Boss. I will be careful next time,” he promised him.“That
Her looks explained why she greeted them wrongly and they did not respond. Likewise, Barr. Gibson went straight to the point. He brought out the subpoena from his folder and stretched it to her. “Kindly go through this, Miss Dickson and acknowledge the receipt by signing here,” he said and pointed at the spot where she would sign.“What is it again, Barrister,” she asked in despair and began to read while they focused on her.If Tim was not dead, she would have concluded that he got the news after Dr. Robinson released the video. Since he was dead, he concluded that the barrister must have done that. All the same, She dried her tears, which made the write-ups blurry, and continued reading.“Oh, my God,” she staggered backward and screamed when she saw her offense.The barrister supported her from the back and stopped her from slumping. When she was stable, she continued.Afterward, she faced the barrister and said, “Point of correction, Barrister, I did not abort any twins.”“Just si
He collected the pack happily and appreciated her, “Wow! Thank you so much for this, Mrs. Gilchrist.”“Think nothing about it. I hope to have you by the next holiday,” she answered happily.“I hope so as well.”The Head of State's Chief security officer and other staff members were not left out. They gave him suitable gifts for a student and he was delighted. He appreciated them one after the other. Later, Tim came to pick him up. Since it was his last day, he decided to see the Head of State.After the salutation, he offered him a seat, and Tim appreciated him, “Thank you, Your Excellency, for absorbing my brother. He had learned a lot.”“You don't need to bother. He is a good boy.”“Thank you for the compliment. We shall be on our way.”“Wait a minute. What will he like as a gift?” The head of state asked and he waited.“I don't think you have to bother yourself. Let him learn how to serve out free will.”“You are right but my office will take care of his term school fees. I think t
The President's Office.After instructing Bright, he became busy with work but had his eyes on the CCTV. When a lady walked into the Secretary's office, he saw a mature lady with a good spirit and positive outlook“Is she the one?” He asked himself and began to monitor her.“Good morning, Bright. I'm Ella Patrick.”“I know. Good morning. Your services at the Senior Staff member's house is over. You are hereby recalled to the canteen.”“It's all right. When do I return?” She responded as though she had been expecting it.“Now,” Bright said and watched her countenance.“I got it. Have you informed the Canteen Supervisor? He wasn't expecting me back.”“It is possible. Let's see him,” Bright accepted and got up.He looked at Gilbert and informed him, “Let the President know that I have gone to the canteen.”“I will do that, Mr. Desmond,” he responded and they watched them walked out.George smiled happily and mumbled, “She is fine. I pray that Dad loves her.”At The LobbyLaura was still
At The President's OfficeGeorge called his father back after he sat down, and they talked about many meaningless things and laughed as well. George was carried away by the conversation that he did not remember his lunch until he got a call from the General Manager.“Okay, Dad. I have to go back to work,” he informed him.“It is all right. Be a good boy,” he remarked.“Boy?” George asked and laughed out loud.The old man laughed too. He was yet to wake up to reality and catch up with the present. To him, George was that small boy who he enrolled in the Canterbury Defense Academy some years ago. “Oh! Pardon me. Be a good soldier,” he apologized and corrected himself.“Better. Enjoy the rest of your day, Dad,” George said and cut the call.He got up immediately and called Capt. Bolton back while walking to the door. He opened it and noticed that Bright was still seated. Likewise, he got up and followed him.“Hello, Sgt. Young. You are not in the canteen yet,” Capt. Bolton greeted him w
At Laura's HouseThe janitor was cooking for the first time by trial and error which led him nowhere until Laura returned from work. She had resolved to embellish furnace on Ella and send her away for being a friend of her enemy.Without recognizing the guards at the gate, she worked into the house and yelled, “Come here, Ella. What were you …”“Welcome back, Boss. Ella isn't back from the complex,” the janitor interrupted her and declared.“What! She left the complex long ago,” she stated and the janitor was speechless.Nevertheless, all hell broke loose when she got to her parents' apartment and met her father in critical condition.“What is the matter with him, Mom?” She asked anxiously and examine the medications on the table.“Welcome back. He had a fever.”“Fever? Why didn't you inform me?”“I did not wish to bother you. But I asked Ella to get some medications for him from the mall,” she said and showed her the drugs.“Did she bring this from the mall or complex?” She asked in
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
