The Return of General Williams 48. Infamous Act
At The Canterbury Defense Academy Nevertheless, after Gerald and Samuel spoke with Tim the previous day, as though they had an agreement, they saw their father's call and ignored it. They had the same opinion about their family - they were in the wrong place. When they remembered the last words of their father - 'I would rather get justice for my dog than for a wife beater', they concluded that they were selfish and apathetic and were not proud to be the children of such parents. Their anger increased when they discovered that their sister framed him and they thought that their parents were part of the plot.“Why is he calling me? Heartless man. Go and get justice for your dog instead of a human being,” Gerald sneered.They turned off their phones and submitted them to their Housemasters.Meanwhile, Before Laura left for work that morning, her father had left the house to search for his children. Although he had a sleepless night his discovery had put him on his toes. “Here we are,

At The Auxiliary Armory PLCGeorge was in his office and monitoring the premises. As for the arrival of the staff members, he did not have much to worry about anymore. When he was certain that the buses had arrived, he began to watch the AM News.“What is our offense? Is it an offense to do business with their enemies?” He asked himself when he heard the hostile comments of the South Coastians and continued watching.“This could lead to a fight,” he concluded and brought out his gun from the drawer.“One has to be prepared for anything,” he told himself and concentrated on his gun.At 9 AM, he decided to visit the Production Department for more knowledge. He got up and tried to turn off the television. To his astonishment, he saw Laura's interview and halted.He began to fume when she introduced herself as the Representative of the President and kept watching. The time she said that everything would fall into place when the President resumed was the straw that broke the camel's back.

“Oh! I apologize if it had caused you any embarrassment.”“Never mind. You are not at fault. Kindly correct the misleading information. The auction sales will take place this coming Saturday at ten zero, zero hours in the complex.” “I got it. I will correct that at once.”“It all right.”Capt. Trenton cut the call and searched George's face. He was happy that he was satisfied.“That is a good one. We will have a free advert for the event,” George said, and the others laughed.They were still laughing when the Head of the Media Department got a call and they halted. He looked at the caller and smiled before he picked up the call.“Hello, MD,” he greeted.“Before I forget, is there any contact person for the public to contact concerning the auction sales?”The Head of Media looked at the General Manager for his approval and he advised, “Give him my secretary's details.”“Yes, MD. I will forward the details to you right away.”“That would be fine. Kindly give the pictures of the cars to

At The Canteen George spent the whole of the morning in the Production Department and monitored the television broadcasts. Meanwhile, he was happy with himself and could imagine how Laura was standing in the empty office. “Can you imagine the guts? (Yes. It has everything to do with the present administration. I am hopeful that everything will fall into shape when the President resumes.) She is indirectly saying that I don't know what I am doing. Stupid girl,” he cursed and walked to the canteen. Presently, Stephanie was not finding it easy. The callers were not mindful of the time - whether she was on break or not. They called at their convenience and in most cases, her line would be busy. She walked into the canteen and observed that all eyes were on her. Before she could process the reason for that, her phone rang again and she picked up the call.“Hello. This is the Auxiliary Armory PLC. How may I help you?”“Hello, Miss Benjamin. I got your contact from the television.”“That

Howbeit, she left it unlocked and walked away. She got to the elevator and joined the other staff members in the queue. After she got in, she pressed the fifth button and everyone wondered. “Have you not closed from work today, Laura?” A concerned staff member asked her.“I have. Why do you ask?”“I can see that you are not going home yet.”“I am going home,” she smiled softly and responded while concentrating on the lift. It stopped when they got to the fifth floor and the door opened. She walked out quickly and headed to Stephanie's office. Unfortunately, she had left the office.“Idiot. She must be at the car park,” she told herself and rushed back to the elevator.To her annoyance, she had to wait for the two lifts that had taken the passengers to the lobby to return.“Shit! I can't wait,” She exclaimed and resolved to use the staircase.“What is she doing here?” The other staff members asked each other. She hardly left when the lift opened and they got to the first floor befo

At that point, Tim adjusted and fixed his eyes intently on his device.“Welcome back, my dear,” her mother greeted her weakly. Instead of answering, she looked at her father's hopeless face and asked, “What happened to my brothers? Please don't tell me that they are dead?”“I wish I would not say so. Your brothers are not in school,” her father announced.She was hysterical and cried louder. Her parents cried weakly because they were tired of crying.On the other hand, Tim was lost and wondered which brothers she was talking about. When she calmed down, she asked, “Who told you that they were not in school?”“The Commandant. I got to the school …”“Where could they have gone to?” She asked dejectedly.After a long silence, her father asked, “What happened to you, Laura?”“Yes. Did you fight with anybody?” Her mother asked.“Yes, Mom and Dad. A colleague vilified me before the President's Representative and he hated me. Now, he is using her as the President's Secretary instead of me.

“Yes, Boss. I am prepared.”“I like that. You will address the soldiers tomorrow. You would have done that today but I forgot to inform you.”George's eyes widened and Tim asked, “I thought you said that you are prepared.”He composed himself and answered. “Yes. I'm prepared, Boss.”“I will give you the contact of the Brigadier before you leave for work tomorrow.” “I got it, Boss.”“Good. Is there anything else you want me to know?”“None, for now, Boss.”“It's all right. Just a heads-up. My brothers are coming tomorrow.”“Wow! I can't wait to see them.”“Okay. You can leave.”“Good night, Boss.”“Good night.”At The Canterbury Defense Academy.After the call, Gerald walked to his brother's block and searched him out.“Guess what, Samuel,” he requested.Samuel looked at his happy face and asked, “What's up?”“Just guess?”“What will you give me if I guess rightly?”“I will take you to Brother-in-law's house tomorrow.”Samuel laughed aloud and asked, “Can you even trace his house?”“I

“Thank you for that, dear,” she appreciated him and walked into the office.Meanwhile, when Gilbert informed George that he had a visitor, he looked through the security camera and saw her. His mind went to the auction sales jingles and he wondered if anything had gone wrong.“Good morning, President,” she greeted ruefully. George was surprised and tried to cheer her up, “Good morning, Stephanie. How are you coping with the jingles?”“I'm coping well, President. I came to apologize for my shameful act,” she declared.George furrowed his brow and asked, “What happened? Were you rude to any caller?”“Not at all, President. After work yesterday, … I am deeply sorry, President. I promise that it will not happen again,” she concluded and could not look up. George was unease after listening attentively to her story. After a while, he advised her, “I have heard you but I would like you to put all you have said in writing.”“Thank you, for that, President.”“You're welcome. Address it to th

They followed him afterward. Shortly after, they were on the premises. To their chagrin, Bright and his friend, Ted were waiting along with Collins.They saluted the Second in Command and the Minister accordingly and they returned the salute.Kay asked the General Manager, "Why have you not closed?""I can't close when my president has not," he answered him sincerely.He was pleased with him. He looked around and saw over two hundred staff members waiting for him. He concluded that George must be a good leader to attract such a gesture. Although Godwin did not comment on it, he had taken note. He watched his crew members as they set their equipment.At 7:55 PM, the Airport Manager called Kay and informed him that they would land within six minutes."Thank you for informing me," he appreciated him and continued to wait.Meanwhile, they landed a few minutes earlier and he informed him again. Without delay, they boarded the helicopter and left the airport. Not quite long, they were in th

He was on lunch when he saw George's trip. He dropped his cutlery and focused on the television. His joy escalated when he saw him granting an interview to the pressmen. He was engrossed in the television and did not know that Collins had driven into the courtyard. Before Ella walked in, the news was over, and he was surprised to see her.She was surprised to see him in such a happy mood. She walked up to him, crossed her hand on his shoulder, and kissed his temple."Welcome back, my love," he greeted her warmly.She sat down opposite him, studied his face for a clue, and answered him, "Thank you, dear. How was your day?""My day was fine. And yours?""Fine," she answered him."How did you come back?""Good afternoon, Old man," Collins greeted him."Ha! Good afternoon, Collins. Thank you for bringing her back.""It is my pleasure, Old man. I will be on my way," he informed him."It's okay. Take care.""Take care, Sergeant," Ella added."I will. Goodbye.""Welcome back, Duchess," Fran

All the same, he was happy that he cheered Bright up.Laura whose embargo on eating in the canteen would end that day, was eating in the lobby. She was ashamed of herself when she saw George's confidence. She focused on the television with her mouth agape."What is giving this boy so much confidence? Could he be the Third in Command and the President as Dad said?" She mulled over.The thought that George could be her president weakened her and stole her appetite."How will I get a husband to marry? All my efforts are failing," she said in despair.Now, she lost her appetite, stopped eating, and covered her flask. To keep herself busy until the break was over, she picked up her phone. She was not surprised when George's story popped up and grimaced. She read the comments by some ladies about George and was jealous."Imagine that? What about us?" She asked herself.At The Dome Vincent woke up and was idle - the lifestyle he hated most. Previously, he would have been on the road and wou

At Raino Airport The team landed after seven hours. They looked at the General, who was sleeping soundly, and wondered what to do."I can wake him up," Richard volunteered and did.George got out of the aircraft by walking confidently down the staircase followed by Jerry and Silas. At that point, many media houses had their beam lights on him. After them, the next person they saw was a disheveled Gen. Anderson, who was in cuffs. Richard guided him until he stepped on the last staircase. Tim got out, too, and adjusted his cross bag.George led them until they got to the tarmac. Before Gen. Anderson crossed, Richard unlocked the cuffs and retrieved them. He gave him an arm salute and as usual, he ignored him.Before they could turn, a Raino soldier cuffed him at once. The reporters were disappointed. They thought they would walk to the lobby and grant them an interview. Since they did not, they ran after them. When they caught up with him, they began their interview, "Welcome to Rai

At The Canterbury Defense Academy The cadets were in the mess room having their breakfast when they were watching the broadcast. Gerald and Samuel became cold at once but concealed it. Although they were still with their phones, they could not call Tim or George for fear of being reprimanded for disturbing them. Gerald ate his food as though he was not disturbed. Afterward, he walked to Samuel's section and met him staring at his food and lost in thought. Despite that, he would do nothing; his presence could assuage his anxieties. "Eat your food," he encouraged him.Samuel was startled by his voice and looked up. He smiled dryly when he saw him and said, "Okay."He watched him as he finished his food and got up.Now, everyone was out of the mess room and walking to their classrooms. It was time to speak on the broadcast."Maj. Young would have separated his head from his neck. Foolish man.""I don't know why they hate us.""What was the driver's offense?""I wish I knew. He wished t

At Tim's House George can take everything but not coming home and not meeting Tim. His countenance changed when Collins stopped in front of the foyer and he got out of the car. They saluted him accordingly and he returned the salute. He walked into the parlor and was disturbed by a message. He checked out for the sender and sat down when he noticed that it was from his father.He punched the message and smiled when he saw the picture of the car."Beautiful," he said and admired it.He read the message and was happy with their progress."Wow! He has spoken with his parents-in-law. That is good," he pointed out.He vacillated over calling Tim to find out his whereabouts."He may be too busy, and I don't want to disturb him," he said, got up, and headed to his room.After changing his clothes, he laid on the bed for a nap. He woke up a few minutes before 6 PM and concluded that he was back. He was about to leave his room when he got a call from him. He picked it up anxiously and greet

"Yes, Mom and Dad. We indicated our interest to get married today.""Wow! I thought you would never marry, Ella," her mother teased her.She laughed softly and responded, "It is not so, Mom. I have found the person I love and I am getting married. That is it.""Ha, Ella. I can't believe that you are talking about marriage. How is the man?" Her mother asked her curiously."Is the man handsome?" Her father asked her jokingly and she laughed aloud."I can't wait to see the man who is worthy of your love," her mother added."We shall see. Speak with my husband," she said."Are you with him?" Her mother anxiously asked her."Yes, Mom. He heard everything you said about him."Before her mother could react, she handed the phone over to the old man. He looked at her happy face before he spoke."Good day, Mother-in-law. I am pleased to speak with you."'So it is true?' she mumbled before she greeted him, "Good day, my in-law. I'm happy to hear from you. How are you?""I'm good. And you?""We a

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.

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
