At The Auxiliary Armory PLCAfter the Captains left, George walked to the Sales Manager's office to ensure that they were through with the sales. “How did it go, Captain?”“It went well. We are expecting the confirmation of the deliveries from them.”“It is all right. Please notify me after you confirm with them. We need to broadcast the sales to attract more buyers.”“I got it, Sgt Young.”Before lunch, he collected the documents for the change of signatories from the Accountant and the offer letter and left.At The CanteenIt was a celebration galore for the staff members who scaled through the Aptitude Test. They did not mind the presence of the Captains as they talked loudly about their success.“Congratulations, Stephanie.”“Congratulations to us, Mary. The questions are cheap and I don't expect that anyone would fail,” Stephanie pointed out probably because she did not observe from the result sheet that Laura failed woefully.Nevertheless, the written application was part of th

Tim parked across the street and began to wait.“What is my offense? When has using an old car become an offense in Canterbury?” he mumbled.While waiting for George, he called Gen. McDonald and informed him that he would be with him soon and he agreed. Nevertheless, he recalled that Laura had not called him and called the General back.“Hello, Gen. Williams. Did you forget anything?” Gen. McDonald asked.“Yes. Did you give the secretary my contact?”“Yes. I did.”“It's all right. See you later.”“Okay.”Nevertheless, after about thirty minutes, he saw George and a man in a corporate outfit walking happily out of the bank. The man showed worries when he tried to cross to the other side of the road.“Where did you park your car?” He asked curiously.“Across the street.”“Oh! Why, if I may ask?”“The security guard asked me to park there,” George reported innocently.The Manager gave the Head of the security guards a hateful look and wondered why he should ask such a high-profile custom

At Laura's HouseIf crying could change anything, she had cried enough to retain her job.“Mom and Dad, everyone did well except me. That wicked Tim had put me into trouble,” she wailed.“Don't mention that unfortunate man here. Remembering him is nauseating,” her father blurted out.“Forget about him. He got what he deserved. I'm happy that you suffered a miscarriage and no child of his will remind us of him,” her mother added.“Your mother is right. He will not be remembered because of the evil he did to you.”Laura was aware of her lies against him but she was not remorseful and lied, “I would have scaled through the Aptitude Test if not for him.”“You are right. I advise that you look for another job since this has failed,” her father advised her.“It means we will leave this house. It is theirs,” she made clear.Her parents' countenance changed at once. They just realized that Tim's application got their daughter her job and the accommodation.“Oh, my God. Was he responsible for

The Personnel Manager got to the secretary's office and met her sitting hopelessly.“Good morning, Capt. Jaja,” she greeted him.He scanned her countenance before he responded, “Good morning, Secretary.”Afterward, he returned to his office.After a while, she got an email from Capt. Jaja and she read it at once. She had hoped for a dismissal but the redeployment to the lobby as an Assistant Front Desk Officer was not the best for her either. She bent down and allowed her tears to flow freely. Gilbert had learned to mind his business. The last time he showed concern over her swollen head, she answered him curtly and he was not happy with it.“This is Stephanie's wish. To take over as the President's secretary,” she murmured.Notwithstanding her state of mind, Capt. Jaja walked in with Bright who was smiling from ear to ear.“Good morning,” he greeted Laura and Gilbert warmly. “Good morning, Sir,” Gilbert responded, and before Laura could look up, Capt. Jaja opened the President's

Capt. Bruce informed them of his reason for the meeting and they were shocked to hear that. In such a big organization where the workers are willing to do anything to win the favor of the Superiors, backstabbing is inevitable.Meanwhile, the driver whose vehicle was used, Reuben Corliss spoke up.“Excuse me, Capt. Bruce. I noticed that my bus was used. And …"“Why didn't you inform me?” He interrupted him and asked.“Can you imagine that?”“So, he is the one?”“He must have been doing it.”“This is certainly not the first time.”Reuben was shocked to hear the unpleasant remarks by his colleagues. He looked at their faces and concluded that he had been amid foes.“I didn't inform you because I thought you used it,” he explained and it was not funny.“Are you accusing me of using the company's vehicles?” Capt. Bruce asked him, and the other drivers aided his claim.“I apologize Capt. Bruce but that is not what I mean,” Reuben apologized but the Captain was angry.Nevertheless, some driv

Laura looked at the direction too and saw Bright smiling shyly. She was right to eat there at first but she did not present herself well as senior staff. That means, her first impression to George was not acceptable and it boxed her into a corner. She ignored them and ordered her food.After the food was served, she ate it leisurely as though she had nothing bothering her. She was a loner and no one asked her why she was dullish. When she thought that the food was finished in the kitchen and lunch was over, she walked back to Barbara.Nevertheless, she was with a visitor when she arrived and took her seat. Likewise, Barbara was embittered when she saw her walking back without her food. She held her peace and directed the visitor to his destination before she faced her.“Where is my food, Laura?” She stood akimbo and asked.Laura gave her a hateful look and asked her, “When did I become your food vendor, Barbara? I guess you were not hungry otherwise, you would have found your way to t

The three visitors did not expect anything less and were happy to see Laura in fear. Instantly, Barbara appeared from nowhere.“I'm here, Sgt Young,” she answered.“What is going on here?” George asked angrily.“I would not know, Sgt. Young. I waited for her to have her lunch before me. After she returned, I went for mine,” she explained innocently.George was furious. He faced Laura and asked indignantly, “If you can't give the right direction, can't you apologize for your mistake?” She looked fearfully at the visitors and apologized, “I'm sorry.”Although it was not sincere it was better than nothing if only George would see it that way.“It's all …”“What are you sorry for?” George interrupted them, hit his left hand on the desk, and revealed his wristwatch.Now, she shuddered and looked at the visitors like a moron. They giggled and waited for her to correct herself. Collins and the others waited patiently as well while Barbara smirked happily.“I'm sorry that I …”“Gentlemen, pa

“How would someone wish to kill innocent orphans who are trying to survive without their parents just to hurt their benefactor?” He grumbled and stared at the wall.After ten minutes of meditation, he concluded, “I will roast all of them.” He chatted him up again and appeared more desperate. (My contact said that the Third in Command is interested in anything that would make Gen. Richmond lose his integrity.)(Wow! Then the project will interest him.)(Yes. If your payment is encouraging, the Third in Command will encourage him to organize a first-anniversary for the orphanage.)(Oh! It is a good idea. Kindly find out if he can convince him to make the event bigger and invite the Heads of State of some Nations.)“Why does he want them?” He asked himself in wonderment and continued to chat with him. (Why do you want it bigger and their presence if I may ask? It will help me in my negotiation.)(My sponsor has got a beef with them and that would be the chance to eliminate them.)(I s
