The Return of General Williams 49. Infamous Act 1
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

At Tim's HouseHe was monitoring all the activities in the office and was happy with the support given to George especially the humility of Brig. Dale.So far, he could not tell what punishment George would give to the two erring staff members.Meanwhile, George returned after two hours with the Brigadier and read through Stephanie's letter.“Why can't this untrained girl do the same thing? She has been here with me and has not thought of apologizing,” he murmured.He looked at the time and it was a few minutes before 11 AM. Instantly, he called Cpl. Barton. Tim was on and off his monitoring device because of the news.At The President's OfficeCpl. Barton arrived after a few minutes and saw Laura and Gilbert hanging on the window. He did not answer her question the previous day when she inquired about when to refurbish the office. Not because he did not wish to but because he had no answer for her.“Good morning, Cpl. Barton,” they greeted him simultaneously.“Good morning,” he answe

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

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.

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.
