At The Secretary's Office

“This is good,” he said and took his seat.

He watched the video again and wrote his note.

(This is to notify all staff members that no form of indiscipline will be tolerated in the organization. Anyone found wanting would be decisively dealt with. Signed: Management).

He smiled cynically and shared the video.

At The Front Desk

Barbara was relaxing with her phone while waiting for the visitors who usually gain access into the complex at 10 AM when messages popped up. She quickly tapped on the first message and saw the General Manager's notification that Laura was no more the President's secretary and introduced Bright as the secretary.

“Good riddance to bad rubbish,” she thought and glared at Laura.

Afterward, she tapped on the second message which was a video and began to watch it. After watching it, she shook her head negatively and looked at Laura again. Meanwhile, she was sad and reading the email from Barr. Gibson and did not notice that she got messages

Dale.”He returned the salute happily and they sat down.“The President said he needs the photographs and videos of today's lesson since it is our last day.”“That's good to hear. I need it too.”“It is okay by me. I will get my secretary to do that right away.”Instantly, he called on Bright and he arrived. He was about to give his phone to him when he got a message from Tim. He paused and read through it.(I am at the mall. Do you want me to get a phone for your Dad or will you do that after work? I promise I won't buy a clunker.)George smiled quietly at his promise and replied.(Thank you, for this, Boss. He won't even mind the clunker.)(Okay.)Afterward, he handed his phone to Bright and instructed him on how to use it and get high-quality video and photographs.“I got it, Boss,” he responded with glee and began.He took differen

    At Laura's HouseElla got home and kept her findings to herself. She was aware that they will not believe her. Apart from that, even if he was alive, they would not be happy to hear that.“Welcome back, Ella,” Madeline greeted her and watched her remove her things from the car trunk.“Thank you, Mrs. Dickson,” she responded, covered the trunk and the driver drove off.Instantly, she pointed out, “It's like you forgot some things in the car?”“Not at all, Mrs. Dickson,” she answered and picked up a bag.Mrs. Dickson pick up another bag and followed her to the store.“What happened, Ella? Previously, you buy more than this?”“The fund that the boss gave to me was not as much as it used to be.

    At Tim's HouseGeorge was happy to leave the office after the inspection of the proposed site for the mill and the collection of the proposal. Unfortunately, he got home and discovered that Tim was not at the foyer to receive him.“Huh!” He hissed while Collins drove on.His worries increased when he did not see Tim's clunker at the garage.'Where could he be? Is he not back from the mall?' He asked himself and got out of the car.“Thank you, Collins,” he said and hurried to his room to see his father.He opened the door and stood still when he saw the bed empty. After observing it for a while, he walked in and called out, “Dad.”When he did not hear any response, he pushed the door and looked in but did not see his father.“Where will he be?” He mumbled.At that point, his military might gave way and was replaced by affinity and the longing of a child. He fought back his tears when he remembered the time he was alone and without the hope of seeing his father again.To relieve himself

    At Tim's Room He hardly took five steps when Hope's phone beeped with a message. He overlooked it and walked to his room, changed his wear and relaxed on the bed before he read his messages.(Yes. I'm here, Hope. Can we chat?)(I just want to update you. My informant said that the invited Head of States have acknowledged their invitations and promised to be at the event.)(That is good to hear. What next?)(The publicity for the anniversary will be on air tomorrow.)(I can't wait to see it.)(You have not said anything about your sponsor. Won't he be present?)(Just go on with your publication.)(It's all right.)Tim was euphoric when the chat ended.“I am older than you in this game,” he thought aloud.At Laura's HouseMany things like the Barrister's email, her apology video, ruined her day but the one that hit her below the belt was the privilege that George gave to Bright.“Why does he hate me so much?” She asked herself and pretended to have forgotten all she had said about him

    Now, George was holding two guns and looked like the troublemaker. The Mall security guards rushed to the scene and tried to intervene but they were shocked to see a Major holding a rifle and looking at them as though they were entertaining him. They looked at the two and concluded that the Major was calm because the money bag was a pickpocket.“I say kneel,” George shouted and he reluctantly got up and complied.“Remove your jacket,” he ordered.“You will regret …,”George did not give him the grace of completing his threat and hit his head with his gun.“Ouch,” he shrieked aloud.“Shut up and remove your jacket,” he ordered.He locked eyes with him and discovered that he had judged him wrongly. “Remove your jacket,” a security guard lent his voice.He looked at the onlookers and looked down in shame. The security guard who despised the clunker the day Tim bought three expensive phones at the same time just saw the car. To his dismay, he was calm and busy with his phone. Presently,

    At The President's Office Capt. Bolton walked in after he settled down and informed him of the Cadets.“How many of them are we supposed to absorb?” He asked and pretended as if Bright had not informed him.“We absorb one hundred of them every year.”“That is good to hear. How much stipend do we pay them?”“Nothing. The experience they gain from us is enough for them.”“Don't you think that it is absurd? If we can't encourage them, who will?”The General Manager thought for a while and explained, “I have not given it a thought.”“There is room for improvement. Meanwhile, inform the Corporal to stop collecting more applications.”“I got it. What is our conclusion on the stipend?”“If I may ask, how long is the internship? In our days, it was three months.”“It's still the same.”“It is all right. Let's encourage them with one percent of the senior staff salary. That wouldn't be too much on us for three months.”The General Manager giggled and declared, “I will go back to where I did m

    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.

    At The Christchurch DomeVincent was only following them like a sheep being led to the slaughter. Left for him, he would love to be with his family. When Tim stopped, he was hesitant to get out of the car."Here we are," Richard said and got out of the car.He expected him to do the same thing. When he did not, he opened the door for him and said, "Come out."He obeyed and he shut the door. He led him to the foyer while Tim called the Second in Command.When he picked up the call, he greeted him, "Good evening, Tim. What's up.""Good evening, Your Excellency. Are you still in the office?""No.""It is okay. I took the driver away from the hospital. Dr. Morgan was responsible for the mix-up.""Oh, my God! Where are you?""I'm at the Dome. He is safer here.""Wait for me. I'm still around.""It's all right," he said and the call ended.He got out of the car and joined the two in the foyer. Incidentally, Vincent's phone rang, and he tried to pick up the call."For now, no calls until we

    Nevertheless, the media crew parked in front of the hospital and waited for instructions from the Minister."I will let you know what to do," he informed them."We got it, Boss," they answered him simultaneously.The three of them followed Tim who was leading the way. At that time, he had ensured that his secret camera was on.Instead of seeing Dr. Morgan in his office, he led them to the ward hoping to catch the caregiver or anyone responsible for the act. He pushed the door and walked in at once and the others followed.Dr. Rochford was startled and he looked up. He was frightened to see three high-ranking soldiers with unhappy faces. Meanwhile, Vincent woke up when the door creaked and focused on the soldiers. He suspected that they had come for him and sat up. To get the truth from him, Tim smiled broadly, and Dr. Rochford, who they did not recognize,e, was surprised to see that for the first time."Good morning, Vincent," he greeted him.On hearing his first name, he assumed tha

    A broad smile flickered across his lips and he mumbled, "That little boy of yesterday is now taking care of his father. I can't believe it."He looked at Ella, who was sleeping soundly beside him, and his eyes were wet with tears of joy.Thereupon, he began to count his blessings, "The Lord has rewarded me according to my heart's desires because He has seen the cleanness of my hands. Wonderful son and a caring wife. My Dukedom has been upgraded and restored. Above all, the Young man is there for me. What else will I ask from God?"Afterward, he sent a message to Tim and informed him of the allocation. He tossed his phone aside and bent to kiss Ella's temple. Suddenly, his phone rang and woke Ella from sleep."Who is this?" He asked himself and picked up his phone."Mr. Watson," he said and looked at Ella who was waiting to know the caller."The car dealer," he explained and picked up the call."Hello, Mr. Watson.""Good day, Your Grace. We are close to your palace," he informed him."

    Meanwhile, George was bitter that he addressed him wrongly and would not allow him to go without being reprimanded. He smiled dryly and answered him, "Not immediately, Gen. Anderson. I will do that after I get justice for the taxi driver you wished to strangle to death."Before that time, he was not aware that he was discovered. Subsequently, he was distressed and wished to die. Just like in a movie scene, he began to faint, but Valentine, who was about to lock the tailgate, grabbed him. Cpl. Barton and Jerry noticed it, walked to him, and helped to steady him."You can't die now," George snarled and gave him a hate look before they walked him to his cell. Richard followed him and unlocked the cuffs and got them back for Tim. He did the same thing for the other suspects and joined the General Manager and George."This is unbelievable," the General Manager pointed out."Just imagine that. Who would suspect that he was hiding there?" Richard responded."See you later," Richard said an

    To avoid more questions, he got up and requested for lunch."Kindly find out if Francis is through with the lunch.""Oh! You are famished," she said and walked away."George must have done this," he told himself.Suddenly, his phone beeped with a message and he was distracted. He looked at the sender and his face beamed with delight."Wow! The allocation," he stated joyously. Shortly after, Ella walked into the room and informed him that lunch was ready.At The Second in Command's Office While Richard and Valentine were sitting in the Hilux, Tim got into the clunker and informed him via a text that they should leave for the complex at once while he went to see the Second in Command. He acknowledged it and informed Valentine, "We are going to the complex.""I got it, Major," he said and drove off.Tim informed George to expect them before he drove behind them. He arrived at Kay's office with a sad demeanor and he prepared himself for the worst. He saluted him hurriedly and he cut th

    They followed him and spoke with a few workers while he walked to the farmers."How are you, Pa Suresh? Richard asked him."I'm fine, Major," he answered him and faced Tim."Good morning, Pa Suresh," he greeted him too."Good morning, Sir. How are you?""I'm fine, Pa Suresh. Have you been hearing from Ann and Fabian?" He asked him with concern.He smiled broadly and answered him, "Yes. We speak over the phone.""That is good.""So, you and your wife have turned to a newly married couple?" Richard teased him and he laughed aloud.Before he could recover from the joke, Tim added, "We may have a miracle baby from them soon?""Ha! Not at all. We leave that to young men like you," he emphasized.They laughed happily and Richard said, "Excuse us. We wished to see the farmers.""It is all right," he said and they moved.Before they got to the farm, Valentine was addressing the foreigners. They stood beside him and studied them. Since they were few, they were able to see all of them. At that

    Instead of saying 'no' he responded positively, "We are positive."Tim overlooked him and faced Dr. Rochford. He brought out the driver's phone and said, "I have listened to the conversation between him and the last passenger."The doctor did not hide his bewilderment. He furrowed and inquired, "His phone was locked. How did you unlock it?"Tim pretended not to hear him, moved to the driver, and continued, "I would like him to listen to the conversation. It may help him to regain his consciousness."Doctors do not like it when outsiders teach them their work. Dr. Morgan would have blurted out but held his peace."We have been talking to him," Dr. Rochford explained.Now, Tim had brought out his earpiece from his cross bag and plugged it into the phone. He bent over the patient to insert it into his ear. "Hearing this may provoke him to get up," he said while doing that.At that point, his cross bag touched the patient but he was through. He kept his phone properly to stop it from fal

    He stopped in the vestibule and it was absurd for a bus to wait there. Likewise, it attracted everyone and the Corporal was disturbed. While they were looking and wondering, Ella got out of the bus and walked into the lobby. Laura tried to hide her face but it was late.Ella focused on her right from when she crossed the door as though she was coming for her."Oh, my God! She has come for me, " she exclaimed in fear.Shortly, Ella was in front of Barbara. She was excited and looked into her eyes."Good morning, Miss Patrick. What brings you?" She greeted her happily."Good morning, Barbara. I'm expecting a guest. A tall handsome man. If you see him, you will recognize him."Barbara thought that she meant it and responded, "I got it, Miss Patrick. I will look out for him.""That's good," she said.Likewise, she faced Laura with a hateful look and continued, "Kindly attend to him by yourself, Barbara, and don't allow idiots near him."Barbara almost burst into laughter when she got the

    Monday - At The Complex George's team arrived and Collins stopped at the vestibule. The General Manager recalled that the car was at his place on Saturday but was unaware that it was driven by George.He got out of the car and joined them in their usual morning gossip. They smiled broadly and greeted him one after the other."How is your family?" He asked them."Great. And yours?" The accountant asked him."Great," he responded and excused himself.He walked into the lobby and everyone greeted him respectfully while Laura murmured. He laughed inwardly and responded to their greetings, "Good morning. How was your weekend?""Our weekend was fine," they responded and he pressed the elevator button.At The President's Office He walked in when it opened and shortly after, he was in his office.
