The Return of General Williams 18. Dilemma 6
At The Auxiliary Armory PLCLaura walked back to her desk like one in a trance and took her seat. Now, she was breathing heavily and trying to put herself together. After a while, she said, “The Corporal confused me. Why did he address him as General?”She looked worriedly for some time before she asked, “Why is he putting on the wristwatch I gifted the President?”At Tim's ApartmentHe was happy when George returned and continued his work by reporting all the abnormalities in the office. “Welcome back once again. You look worried,” Tim asked. He took a deep breath and pointed out, “I wonder how military staff members would come to work late. What is the difference between us and the civilians.”Tim laughed inwardly at his bogus expectations from humans and declared, “That is human beings for you. How do you think we can curtail it?”“By continuing to punish them. I asked the General Manager to display their names on the notice board to serve as a deterrent to others?”“I like that.

At Tim's HouseAfter the chat, he continued to watch the television. Before dinner, he sent for George and when he arrived, he prepared him for the next day's work and he showed fear. He could not imagine how he would receive a Brigadier without his support. Howbeit, he gave him an encouraging smile and asked, “Are you scared?” He vacillated before he answered, “No Boss,” even though it was obvious from his expression that he was.“That's good to hear. You won't be alone with him. The General Manager and the Sales Manager will be there with you. Are you okay with that?”“Yes. I got it, Boss.”They had their dinner peacefully and went to sleep. Unaware of what the next day will bring.The Next DayAt The Headquarters' GateSamuel was weak and rested his head on Gerald's shoulder all through the night. Cpl. Kenneth and the other soldiers were helplessly watching and praying for them. At that point, their lips were dried and the mark of tears distorted their lean faces. It was obvious t

At The Canterbury Defense AcademyThe Commandant held his breath while waiting for the call to connect. Above all, he was unaware of how to begin his complaint. After a few seconds, the call connected and his heart sank. “Hello, Commandant. How are you?” His Excellency greeted him happily when he picked up the call.Nevertheless, the cheerful greeting did not have much effect on his downcast spirit.“Good morning, Your Excellency. I'm fine,” he responded with a fallen voice.“What is the matter? You sound cold.”“Yes, Your Excellency. I wish to inform you that two of our students are missing. They left the school three days ago but have not returned as they promised.”“That is serious. What was their reason for leaving the school?”“They said their brother-in-law was killed and wished to attend his funeral. …”“Hold on. How many did you say they are?”“They are two, Your Excellency.” Now, His Excellency was abreast of the story and played along.“The two of them? Have you contacted

At The Auxiliary Armory PLCAfter the Sales Manager left, George smiled at the General Manager and asked, “How many staff members were late to work today?” He laughed happily before he answered, “None. That method worked.”“That is good to hear. We are stepping up on punctuality.”The General Manager gave him a questioning look and he explained, “From now onward, every staff member would be given a special treatment. They would be treated like the Kings and Queens that they are.”“I'm lost,” Capt. Bolton furrowed his brow and asked.“You don't have to be. Except for the management staff and senior staff members, the staff buses will pick everyone up from their various homes and take them back after work. What I am saying is as simple as that.”“That is a good idea. It will save us the cost of maintaining the vehicles.”“You got the President's perspective. For that reason, no company's vehicle leaves the premises today.”“I got it. If I may ask, what if any senior staff wish to bene

At The HeadquartersThe Commandant was partially relieved after speaking with the Head of State some minutes ago. Nevertheless, his heart sank when he saw his call again. He wished that he could wake up from the bad dream and discover that all the problems had vanished. All the same, he picked up the call, cheered up, and greeted, “Hello, Your Excellency.”He held his breath and waited for the worst but was mistaken.“Don't worry yourself, Commandant. The boys are safe.”He wished he could say 'It is not true' or ask 'How do you know' but his next request indicated that there was a fire on the mountain.“Share the social media post about the students with me.”Without hesitation, he answered, “I will do that right away, Your Excellency.”The Head of State cut the call at once and began to wait. The Commandant quickly shared the post and gave himself a treat by having a sumptuous breakfast.Before he got the post, he sent for his Second in Command and he arrived at once. He looked at

Her answer was funny and everyone burst out laughing while George was undaunted. Tim looked at the two boys who were sleeping soundly before he smirked in satisfaction. Nevertheless, George did not find her response funny but slighting, which he would always attribute to his age. 'She has indirectly informed me that I am not her President,' he thought. “Go and eat at the Junior Staff Canteen. Your President will eat by himself when he comes,” he advised her dismissively and joined the General Manager at his table. At that point, all eyes were on her and she was unstable. She looked around the canteen, was embarrassed, and looked down immediately. Instantly, she got up. With her head bowed down, she walked to the Junior Staff Canteen where the same meal would be served.Meanwhile, Collins and his colleagues were there too. They never thought of eating at the Senior Staff Canteen not minding that they were of the same rank with George. Tim was having a good time when Dr. Morgan wal

Now that they were alone, Gerald could ask questions, “What happened, Brother-in-law? The news of your death is all over the place.”Tim gave him an encouraging smile and advised him, “Take a rest. There's so much to talk about.” “I got it …”He stopped abruptly when the door opened and Dr. Morgan walked in. Without sparing Tim a glance, he walked to Gerald's bed and pulled down the bottom lid of his eye to ascertain how healthy the underneath was. He nodded his head in satisfaction and said, “You are all right and fit to go home, young man.”Gerald smiled broadly and appreciated him, “Thank you, doctor. What about my brother?” He asked curiously.“He is fit to go home, too.”“It is all right. I will wait until he wakes up.”“It is okay. Just let me know when he wakes up.”“Okay doctor,” he answered and the doctor disconnected the drip.Nevertheless, Tim felt that Gerald should be starving and looked at the time.“It's just thirty minutes to 4 PM. George can close and come and pick m

“Ain't you going to the airport with Sgt. Young to pick up the President?” The Corporal looked into her eyes and asked her. To their confusion, George's attention was on Capt. Bruce. When he was through with the three cars, George faced Laura and advised, “Whether you are going to the airport to pick up the President or you wish to see the doctor, find your bus.”“Thank you for that, Capt. Bruce,” he appreciated him after he parked the last car.“It is my pleasure, Sgt. Young,” he responded and returned to the bus stands. They stood aside and watched the staff members filing into the buses.Meanwhile, Laura felt cheated and grumbled, “Are you the President? Don't you come to work in cars? Who gave you the right to stop me? We are both the Representatives of the President.”George who heard her ignored her and gave her the attitude of 'If the sun is not afraid of the moon, let it shine at night'.Within thirty minutes, the eighteen buses had left the premises and the senior staff membe

Let's see the farmers," Richard said and moved.They followed him at once and walked to the farm. Since the incident of Monday, the farmers had not seen Tim and Richard. They stopped work when they saw them and greeted them accordingly."Good afternoon to you all," they responded simultaneously.Tim stepped aside and Richard addressed them, "Thank you all for your patience."Meanwhile, George, the General Manager, and the team arrived and parked beside the clunker. They got out of the car immediately and George tried to walk to the estate."They are at the farm, Major," one of the security guards informed him after the salutations."Thank you for informing me," he said and mo

At The Complex At lunch, Laura was not back, and Barbara took the initiative. She informed the Corporal of her intentions to be away for lunch and left. She returned at once with her packed food and ate in the cubicle. George and Bright met the General Manager in the elevator and informed him of the arrival of the machines."That is good to hear. I would love to see them. Or what do you think?""I planned to visit there after lunch. We can go together then," he declared.Now, the elevator door opened and they walked out."That is better," the General Manager said and they walked on.Soon, they were at the canteen. They had the meal happily and avoided discussing their proposed visit to the mining field. Their reasons were simple - to avoid luring the other managers from volunteering to come with them. Afterward, they returned to their offices and hoped to leave at 2 PM.Nevertheless, the exhausted Laura returned a few minutes before 2 PM. As for lunch, she was aware that she had miss

At Mount Olive "Kindly get your attorney, Young lady," the officer advised Laura."I was wrong, Officer. I shouldn't have missed my way," she declared, concealing her motive for visiting the palace.The officer pouted, gave her the statement paper, and said, "Write all you could remember about the incident here."Now, she was conscious of her office and afraid that she might be too late to work. She looked at the time and it was a few minutes before 9 AM.'Barbara would be happy to see me punished if I am late to work,' she lamented and began to write her statement quickly."I'm through, Officer," she showed her the statement and announced.She collected it, looked through it, and informed her, "The DPO is in a meeting. I will submit it to him after that."Instantly, she began to fidget and asked her, "Huh! When will that be? I should be in my office."She paid no heed to her question and simply said, "Kindly wait at the reception.""Hey! I'm in trouble," she exclaimed, got up and w

She saw herself walking into the palace and was covered with sweat immediately. The officer was calm and watching the television as well. She switched her look from the television to the officer. When she got to the point, she said, 'I'm in the wrong place,' she looked down and pursed her lips to suppress her nervousness.'Ella must have done this. The Duke does not know my house and could not have gotten my address,' she thought.The officer picked up her form and looked at it. Without any signs of anger, she said, "Your workplace on the form is different from what you said in the footage."'Why can't I get it right? Why can't I get what I want?' she asked herself in low spirits."Did you get my question?" The officer asked her when she failed to answer her."I apologize, officer. We can talk it over," she pleaded, hoping to bribe her.At Tim's House "Just calm down. Everything will be sorted out shortly," Tim advised Richard and they began to wait."Do you mind breakfast?"

At Richard's House "Hello, Boss," he picked up the call and greeted him."How did it go?""She was stained with blood and her face swollen," he explained.Tim was disoriented and asked him immediately, "Was she attacked?""I wouldn't know. She said that she should have known that my mistress and I wished to kill her. I don't know where all these remarks are coming from.""Relax. Okay?" Tim pacified him when he observed from his tone that he was about to break down."Just hang on until morning. I will inform Dale. He would look into the matter. I guess she fell out with her instructors.""I'm worried that she must be starving," he pointed out with concern."You are right. Where is she?""She has locked herself in the room and crying profusely.""Ha! She even needs first aid.""That's is my concern. Oh, my God!""She will be fine. Let's talk in the morning. Okay?""It's okay, Boss. I apologize for bothering you.""Think nothing about it. Good night.""Thank you for your concern. Good n

At Tim's House He was working in the basement when George returned and joined him. "Welcome back," he said after the salutations."Thank you, Boss. Savannah has sent their order.""Yes.""I hope there is no problem.""He said that South Coast wished to attack them through a smaller nation.""Ha! Have they not learned their lessons?""They will do that this time," he responded confidently.They worked until 6 PM and left for their rooms to get some rest before dinner. At The Dining Table Tim discovered that the meal was for three people and was surprised. He called Sheldon at once.

At The Taxi Driver's HouseAfter he was settled, Michael assigned some soldiers to take him to Bournemouth to get his car. He was hearing for the first time that he was once admitted to the hospital. He walked in to appreciate them and was surprised to see Dr. Rochford."Did you come to see someone, Doctor?" He asked him after the greetings."No. This is my hospital. I was at the State House Hospital because of you.""Wow! I can't thank you enough.""You are welcome," he answered him.He gave him his car keys and watched him as he got in. He turned on his ignition and smiled when it could not come up. As a result of not using it for long, it had gathered moisture which led to corrosion. Also, the fuel had degraded.He got out of the car and said, "I will get a technician to look at it. The fuel needs to be siphoned out.""It is expected," Dr. Rochford explained.Afterward, the soldiers took him to his house and his family members were delighted to see him. However, his girlfriend had

At Mount Olive As the old man discussed with Duke Ephraim, he informed the Head of The Duke Council of his proposed wedding, and he was excited. He took over the leadership of the Council three years ago and was neither his friend nor enemy. He was at the installation ceremony but chose to be quiet especially when he was not recognized. Now, he had to be a good leader, and I initiated calling him.The old man frowned his face when his phone rang and he saw the caller. Ella noticed it and focused on him."Excuse me," he said and picked up the call."Hello, Duke Matthew. I am delighted to hear from you," he greeted him with a sad demeanor."Hello, Duke Oliver. How are you?" He inquired with genuine interest."I'm fine. And you?""I am good. I got your message.""That is good. Kindly inform my fellow Dukes.""I see.

At The Complex Laura was not sure if the lady in the broadcast was Stephanie because she was rushing to work when she saw it. Due to her budget, she was without data subscriptions and could not watch it from her phone.Now, she saw the full video and was so disenchanted when she saw Stephanie smiling broadly. Not only that, she was answering her questions with joy. The reporter gave much publicity to her stay as the only woman who dared the cold and time to wait. "So, this is how they get husbands. They start by being nice. No wonder Ella became a Duchess immediately after the Duke was installed," she told herself and continued watching.To buttress her point, Bright's interview was not boosted like Stephanie's. Nevertheless, the security guards were enthralled."She stole the show," one of them announced and they laughed.The laughter provoked Laura and she resolved to be proactive and get her a husband for herself."Maj. Young is the Third in Command and the President. I will do w
