The Return of General Williams 310. The Resumption 25
While the others were interested in the news, Tim was interested in the couples. He admired their outfits and was pleased with their wives.“Their wives are beautiful,” he pointed out and continued to admire them.'So, I would have been the only person without a wife if I was there?' He asked himself and remembered Stephanie.He imagined her face and looked at the Head of State's wife and the other women. “My wife will be as beautiful as they are,” he assured himself.Now, the story of the Head of State and the stranded Lt. Col. Ben Smirnoff was over and they continued with their meal. After the meal, Tim hurriedly left for his room and began to think of life with Stephanie. He smiled and connected to her phone. “Wow!” He exclaimed when he saw her resting on the couch and watching the television.She was putting on her skimpy nightwear which exposed her straight and smooth legs. He kept admiring her with a sheepish smile.At a point, she adjusted and rested her two legs on the cent

The speaker picked offense and scolded him, “Watch your tongue. How dare you insult me. Have you hosted one before?”“Of course. Do you think that I am a village man like you,”A foul mouth deserves a slap. Unexpectedly, the last speaker got two slaps on his cheeks."Hey!" He shrieked in pain and pounced on the enemy.“Stop,” the other youths shouted and tried to separate the fight.They should not have bothered because the soldiers were all over the place. They whipped them mercilessly and shouted, “Go home. All of you." Unfortunately, all of them were whipped, and the innocent ones felt bad. They began to run and rub their backs at the same time. Saturday At The Mining Field Valentine could not ask for any other life from his present one. He was so occupied with so many responsibilities that he hardly had time for himself, and he loved it so. They woke up and had their breakfast as usual.“We are set, Supervisor,” Fabian and Tyler walked up to him and announced.Valentine was be

"Thank you for bringing them, Valentine,” Richard appreciated him after the greetings.“It is my pleasure, Major,” he responded.“Thank you, Supervisor, for bringing your brother-in-law,” Tim teased him with a smirk. He smiled shyly and Tim continued, “You have not told us how you changed the rules of the strict University of Ghent within a few hours.”Valentine laughed aloud and tried to explain, “It was …”He stopped when he saw the Minister of Culture's entourage. Tim smiled broadly and waited for him to alight from his vehicle.“Good morning, Lt. Col. Swanson,” Richard and the other soldiers saluted him.He returned the salute and gave Tim a nod. He smiled at him and instructed, “Ask your secretary to get the hard copy of the program from the event planner.”“I got it, Boss,” he said and informed his secretary.The secretary moved at once. He got into the hall and walked to the event planner who was standing with his workers in the foyer.“Good morning, Event planner. I'm Cassie

He shook his head negatively and said, “I don't know him.”Meanwhile, Cassie was monitoring them, and when he saw Cpl. Simpson assumed that he was aware of what he was doing and relied on his judgment.He signaled to him to ask if they were set and he nodded. Cassie was pleased and continued, “His Excellency, the Head of State represented by the Minister of Culture, the President of the Auxiliary Armory PLC, the Senior Police Officer among us, ladies and gentlemen, kindly stand up and honor the Duke as we usher him in.”Before the bewildered audience could protest, the Minister and President were already standing. They stood up, too, and looked on.The host faced the police band and signaled them to give them soft music and they complied.At the entrance door, the eight Dukes were distraught with the disorganized situation and wished that they would be allowed to leave. Meanwhile, the elders could not decide what to do, especially with the presence of the soldiers around them.“Usher

Harry felt that he must nip the problem in the bud and called Tim again. The Dukes who must obey, began to file out of their seats. At that point, Tim's phone rang again and he decided to answer the caller before the Dukes would get to the podium.He brought out his phone quickly from his cross bag and looked at the caller.“Is he insane? Why is he calling me?” He asked himself angrily.To stop him from disturbing him again, he resolved to pick up the call and put things right.“Hello. How may I assist you?” He asked him.“Hello, Officer. Kindly inform the Head of State that things are going wrong in Mount Olive. You can come over and see things for yourself.”“What is going wrong if I may ask?”“The Minister wishes to install a fake Duke. You have to come over and stop …”“You are the fake Duke,” he interrupted him and declared.Before he could express his shock, Tim cut the call and focused on the installation. Meanwhile, to get a proper view of the podium, Richard got out of the b

The Duke paused his goodwill message and looked at the big screen like the others. The film began when the elders, especially Elder Kefas, claimed that the building belonged to their brother.Such a claim did not go down well with the citizens because they were aware that they were sworn enemies."Your brother indeed," some murmured.It also showed how a fearful-looking woman was crawling and begging for her husband's corpse. "Hey!" They screamed when the building collapsed and someone screamed.They continued watching, and one of the Duchesses, who had been silent, spoke to her husband, "They did not even bother to take him to the hospital.""You are right. They are asking for his corpse because they are aware that they killed him," another person added."Can you imagine that? They were just waiting for him to die," another duchess said."And after his precious stone.""Hey!" The audience screamed when Elder Kefas and others admitted that they were praying for the Duke to die.Befor

The question raised uproar among the youths who cheered up at once and shouted simultaneously, "Me."Just like a magic wand, the hall was electrified and the dignitaries were happy."It is good to know that all of you can. The first two people to get here will have the Mic," he stated.Despite the number that he mentioned, the youths walked briskly to the stage. In a jiffy, there were ten of them on the stage."Ha!" I want only two," he looked at their happy faces and stated.Then, he faced the excited audience and asked, "How do I drum the excess out?""By balloting," some shouted.The old man could imagine how they would feel if they were evicted and he intervened, "Permit all of them to perform.""Wow!" The ten youths shouted and appreciated him one after the other, "Thank you, Your Grace.""Thank you, Our Great Duke."He waved at them by way of response and they faced the host."Now, let us see you perform."At that point, Fabian was thrilled and wished to get back to the stage an

He said many things and concluded with, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, a new Mount Olive. It is a Dukedom that will surpass other Dukedoms in Canterbury."The other Dukes grinned at his boastful remarks and said, "Don't be too sure."He laughed softly and continued. "After ...""He is laughing like Oliver," one of the Dukes pointed out."Not just that. The voice sounds like his," another Duke responded."After we close, the dignitaries, my fellow Dukes, and elders will join me at my palace for lunch," the old man continued and confused them all the more."His palace? Where is it?" One of the eight elders asked his fellow Duke."The palace of course. Oliver's house.""Is it that dilapidated house?""Yes. Is it not better than going to Harry's house?""That killer? I wouldn't have gone ""You got it," the other admitted.The old man looked at the audience and said, "The others will have their lunch in this hall. I hope you are not offended?"He paused and waited for their reac

At The Complex Laura got up and walked to the door like a bulldog. The Corporal and warden gave way for her or she would have pounced on them. With that, she increased her offenses, and Jerry cashed in and whipped her legs with the horsewhip."Repeat after me, Miss Dickson. Say I will not disturb the peace of the complex again," he requested while flogging her."I will never disturb .... Hey!" She stopped and shrieked in pain.Jerry continued to flog her, and she continued to cry and repeat after him."Run for your life before I kill you. Silly girl," he shouted at her and she obeyed. George was happy to see her running out of the cell like a little mouse frightened out of the Queen's chair.She continued running towards the reception when Jerry joined George in the car and he turned on his ignition."Good job, Sergeant," he said and drove off.Nevertheless, she got to the lobby, and the new security team was surprised to see her running like a thief."What! What are you doing here?

He would have called Cpl. Simpson, who was on night duty, to release her, but it would not give him the satisfaction he wanted. Shortly after, he stormed out of his room, got the car keys from the hangar, and walked to the garage. His car alerted Collins and Jerry the moment he turned on his ignition. They walked out of the boys quarters and focused on him."We are going to the complex. Hop in if you are ready," he informed them.They were troubled and did not want to keep him longer than necessary. Jerry was on his khaki pants and camouflage shirt. Collins was putting on the same shirts upon knickers and was not comfortable with it."I will change to trousers," he said and walked away.Jerry got into the front seat, looked at George's sad face, and inquired, "I hope there's no problem?""The boss said we should release that wrench in the guard room.""Ha! You can ask the Corporal to release her," he advised him."I would have done that not until I lay my hands on her, and she would r

He furrowed his brow when he saw her in the kitchen preparing her dinner."Why doesn't she live in a big house and have security guards and a cook like Laura? At least a cook," he thought."Something should be done about it," he concluded.After he left the parlor, George sat on the couch to wait for him. At that point, he got a message from his father. He relaxed and punched on it. A wide smile covered his face while he was reading through it."She will never stay without trouble," he said when he read that Laura was arrested that morning.In the end, he said, "She would soon be working to finance bills that she incurred out of stupidity."At that point, Tim joined him and they walked to the dining table."How was your meeting with the Major General?" "It went well. Empress has grown lean," he pointed out and George was lost."What has Empress got to do with your meeting?" He asked him at once."Oh! I didn't inform you. The meeting was because of them. She fought with her instructor

To extricate herself, she answered at once, "No, Sir.""Then what happened? Don't keep me here longer than I wish," Dale thundered, and she was fear-stricken. "I apologize, Boss. I agreed with her and watched her walk to her husband. When she was sitting with him in the car, I called Mrs Bentley and showed her the two. She was surprised to see them discussing freely. When she returned, Mrs. Bentley did not bother to verify whether it was true or false."She stopped and looked at Richard who had killing intentions on his face. Tim was relishing the story and hated it when she stopped. He hit his hand on the table angrily and shouted at her, "Then what happened?"Although, they were not familiar with Tim's identity they believed that he was an important person to Dale.Instantly, she continued, "She gave her a knife hand strike. Before she could defend herself, she struck her with her shinbone and they began to fight."They focused on Empress who was still looking down. They compared

"I hope she is all right," he said and was restless.Before Tim walked to the foyer, he remembered Dale's summons to Richard's wife. He looked at his time and mumbled, "I would like to be there."He walked to his room and before he settled down, he heard a knock on the door."Come in, the door is not locked," he said, and George walked in with his stoic face."What is the matter. You scared the farmers away with your look," he made clear to him.He smiled weakly and asked him, "Did I? Miss Dickson attacked her colleague and injured her."Tim furrowed and dismissed him, "I have a meeting with Dale. We will talk about it when I return.""I got it, Boss," he said and returned to his room.Tim lay on the bed, breathed heavily, and asked himself, "What is wrong with this girl? Sacking her would not favor me otherwise, I would have done that."He thought for a while and resolved, "I know what to do?"Likewise, he rested for a while and got up. At that time, he heard Richard's car and tried

To Valentine, Tim may sound boastful but Ambrose knew better. "What do you think, Ambrose? Do we employ another person for that?" Richard asked him."No, Major. I can handle it."He faced Tim, smiled, and undertook, "I got it, Boss. We won't let the Third in Command down.""If you say so.""That is good to hear. 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?"
