The Return of General Williams 1. The Frame Up
At Laura Dickson-Williams' Bedroom“I will goad him into a fight and leave this marriage based on domestic violence. I don't understand why he will not accept my proposal to end the marriage,” the twenty-one-year-old Laura resolved.She woke up and sadly remembered that she had scores to settle with her poor, twenty-five-year-old husband, Tim Williams. “We are no more in the same league. I want to marry a real man and not a penniless and classless man,” she said to herself and angrily got up from her bed. “How can I meet a real man if I continue to be the wife of a scumbag?” she cursed. Likewise, she threw her duvet off her and tried to get out of bed but halted when the door opened. She glared at Tim who walked in to check on her. “It's time for work, Laura,” he informed her. “So, you know work but you can't get one for yourself? You wretched pauper," she glared at him and yelled. Tim smiled softly and gave his regular response, “I will work when the time comes.” His lais

The Broadcast — At The House After the security team and Laura left for the hospital, Tim dabbed his swollen eyes, shrugged his shoulders, and began to eat. He was about to leave the dining table when he saw the news on the television: (Laura Dickson-Williams was beaten up by her lazy husband, Tim Williams, for getting a job for him and she suffered a miscarriage.) “Oh! When did I beat her?” He exclaimed and ran his hand through his head which was spinning already. Likewise, he stared vacantly in amazement. Now, he reminisced about his past. Since he escaped from his jealous superior, Gen. Sydney McDonald who wanted to kill him because he defeated their enemies during the last war, he had been hiding. His higher-ups thought that he was dead and promoted his jealous superior to the rank of a General. In addition to that, he became the Chairman of the Auxiliary Armory PLC and Laura's boss. Now, the publicity had aroused their curiosity. “Does she hate me this much? Has she forg

In the spur-of-the-moment, Laura, her parents, and the Human Rights Activists ran out of the house and met her astounded security men. The pressmen were still hiding their heads and could not explain how the soldiers left. “What is the matter? I heard gunshots,” Laura asked curiously and looked at the military helicopter that had taken off. “They shot him,” a pressman raised his head and answered. “Oh, my God! I am unaware that they would arrive so soon and pick him up,” Laura boasted. Now, the pressmen were getting up one after the other and had to give an account of what they did not witness, even if it meant cooking up stories. “They have killed him. The Head of State has zero tolerance for domestic violence.” “Yes. Violence against women, especially pregnant women, angers him,” a reporter confirmed. “It serves him right,” her father pointed out and his befuddled wife lurched forward and castigated him, “Oh, dear! He died a painful and shameful death.” “Yes. Our daughter g

“You don't deserve it but I would rather not be like you. There will be no difference between us if I cause your children and wife to mourn. On this note, I reduce your punishment to compulsory retirement. You will get all your entitlements.”“Wonderful!”“Excellent!” “This is godly.”“I don't know if I can forgive a known enemy like this.”The soldiers complimented Tim's judgment one after the other. Likewise, Gen. McDonald was most grateful and he dried the tears that had formed in his eyes while everyone focused on him. Although he was seventeen years older than Tim he was aware that his promotion had nothing to do with age but merit.“You are a worthy comrade, Gen. Williams and you surpass me in wisdom. For sparing me, I owe you my life. I'm ready to support you any time you need me,” he appreciated Tim and promised.The house clapped for him and immediately, he faced the Head of State and appreciated him, “Thank you, for this chance, Your Excellency.”He faced the entire house a

“That is good. Kindly go on,” the Head of State requested when he paused and he continued. “The enemies were no match for us and we chased after them. To my joy and Gen. McDonald's annoyance, none of them escaped. Although he showed delight, I never knew it was fake. Meanwhile, I and the other soldiers concentrated on reviving our wounded colleagues. Some were badly injured and died on the spot.”“So sad!” Gen. Hill exclaimed and Tim continued.“At that point, we had run out of drugs and needed to get the victims back to the city. On the road, I requested that we stop so that I could get some marine animals and ocean plants to revitalize our men. Gen. McDonald followed me and I did not suspect anything until he shot at me and I fell into the ocean.”“Oh, my goodness! Did you suffer all these just to save your country and fellow soldiers?”“Yes, Your Excellency.”“That is true patriotism,” Gen. Hill stated and requested, “Kindly go on.”“No. We will stop here today. He needs rest. Th

“Oh! Is that why you are worried? He deserves what he got,” she stated happily and his brother berated her, “How come you sound so happy when you just lost your husband today?”“He is no more my husband. We were divorced before his fortunate death.”“Oh, my God! Fortunate death? When did the death of a husband become fortunate?”“Yes. It is fortunate because he wanted to kill me. Could you believe that he beat me up this morning and I …” Gerald doubted and interrupted her, “Beat you up? How come?” To make him believe her, she began to sob, “Yes (sob, sob). He kicked my stomach (sob) and I suffered (sob, sob) a miscarriage. I lost your nephew (sob, sob).”Gerald was silent for a while and after digesting her story, he simply asked, “When is the burial? Samuel and I would like to be present and pay our tribute.”“Burial? Tribute? For what?” His father thundered from the background and Laura supported him.“Did you hear that? I don't think he deserves such an honor. Besides, the soldi

“Yes. We need an update on her health,” another person emphasized. Now, to retain his job, he had to think quickly, “Oh, I think you miscalculated. Mrs. Williams returned to the hospital last night. As you can see, we are going to work early because of that.”“Oh, my God! Did her condition worsen?”“Is she traumatized?” They asked in quick succession. To avoid giving the wrong answer or causing more delay, he smiled and responded, “She will respond to your questions when you see her.”“You're right.”“Kindly make way for us, or you may not see her this morning.”“You are right, Officer.” “Let's move to the clinic, comrades,” one of the reporters shouted to the rest and they moved. The officer walked back to the car and they moved too. However, they had lost some time. They got to the ornamental plants' shop and purchased an expensive flower and a male wristwatch from a nearby gift shop. Afterward, they left for the office.At The Auxiliary Armory PLCTo their shock, the pressmen we

“I am Capt. Alex Bolton, the General Manager. The management and staff of the Auxiliary Armory PLC are happy to meet you. Convey our greetings to the General. We congratulate him on his well-deserved appointment. We pledge our unflinching support to him to ensure that he moves the company in particular and the nation, forward. Once again, welcome.” “Thank you, General Manager. I will convey your message accordingly. Take me to the Chairman's office.” “All right, Sergeant. We have a token of appreciation for the Chairman,” the General Manager announced and looked at Laura for her presentation. She stepped forward and presented the gifts. Although they were bought with her fund, the General Manager had hijacked it and made it look like the company's official gift. Nevertheless, she must make it known that it was personal.“Well …”The General Manager interrupted her and continued, “On behalf of the Management and Staff of Auxiliary Armory PLC, accept this as a symbol of our love and

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. Bright and Gilbert welcomed him and he said, "Kindly come, Bright.""It is all right, Boss," he said and followed him."Sit down, please," he said and ushered him to a seat.He sat down, apprecia
