Nevertheless, Valentine had been managing the situation but now, he had reached his limit and breakdown in tears.“I'm innocent. I was not with them,” he sobbed.“We are aware. If they have guts, let them stop you on our way,” Tim declared and quenched his fear.“Thank you, Boss, for trusting me,” he said and dried his tears.“Are you familiar with those criminals?” Richard asked.“Yes, Major.”“It is all right. We are following up on the case. We will see how far they can go with the accusations.”“Thank you, Major, for this.”“You are welcome.”They got to the hotel and met Ambrose, one of his colleagues, the bus driver, and his attendant waiting for them. After the greetings, they checked the consignment and Tim showed satisfaction.“Wow! You have done well for your country,” he complimented him.He smiled from ear to ear in satisfaction and appreciated him, “Thank you for your compliment.”“You are welcome. How much do you think this will cost?” “Ha! It is a lot of money because
The gobsmacked DPO looked at the criminals before he faced the Corporal and screamed, “What! We believed him completely and he had taken my men to his house yesterday even though he was aware that he was telling lies.”“That is why we are here to strengthen things. We will be on our way,” the Corporal said and got up.His men got up as well while the DPO did the same. He walked them to the courtyard and appreciated the Corporal for his timely intervention.“It is my pleasure, DPO. Thank you for the good work you are doing.”“Consider it as nothing. Goodbye.”He watched them as they drove off before he walked back to his office and sent for the Public Relations Officer.They got the leader of the gang to confess and apologize to Valentine and the public.At The Auxiliary Armory PLC George was with the General Manager discussing the President's decision on how Mr. Robbie will move into the former secretary's house when Cpl. Simpson returned. He paused the meeting and listened to his re
At The Estate Pa Dickson and his wife were watching the television and lazing around when Laura returned. She walked into their apartment to check on them as was her practice. Presently, they had adjusted to the janitor's cooking and life was sweet to an extent as they hoped that the boys would come back someday.“You are back,” her father welcomed her delightedly while her mother focused on her.“Yes, Dad. Good evening Mom and Dad.”“Good evening, my dear. How was your day?”“My day was good. And yours?” She asked and sat down on the single couch.“Our day was …,”“Knock. Knock.”Her mother was interrupted by the knock on the door.Meanwhile, Capt. Sawyer wished to see the apartment and instruct his workers on what to do before closing for the day. For that, he was not interested in seeing the occupant of the house who ought to have moved out long ago. He arrived with the company's operational truck, the gallons of paint, and the other materials needed for the work.“Take everything

Both of them were aware that the price was 77,000 pounds sterling per carat but the President was desperate and wished to displace his unknown opponent by all means.“I will offer 79,000 Pound Sterling per carat. I think I am generous enough.”'What!' Tim exclaimed inwardly at his generosity and did not wish to go further in the deceit.“I will get back to you,” he said and tried to end the call.The President was scared that he might lose him and upped his bargain. He would not mind offering an unfavorable price to him provided he would not miss the deal.“Hold on. I can increase it if you are not …"“I will get back to you,” he said and ended the call.He breathed freely for a while before he called him back and pretended that he had discussed it with his other client.“You can have it. Your offer is the same as my contact.”“Oh! Thank you so much. Permit me to ask, how soon can I get the delivery?”“As soon as you wish to come for it.”“That is good. Where are you calling me from?”
At Tim's House After the President of the Sparkling Diamond Exchange paid for the consignment, he was still troubled and called Tim back. He informed him that he was scared to be in Canterbury if Sgt. Young did not approve of the transaction. Tim tried to discourage him from every fear but he was not convinced.At that point, George walked in to get the details of the activity at the field that day. He met Tim persuading someone over the phone and he sat down on the couch. When Tim could not convince him to come over, he said to him, “I will get back to you in a short while.”“It is all right,” the President said and cut the call.Tim faced George and gave him the details of their movement of the consignment to the airport, how he got the details of the buyer up to when he sealed the deal.“Wow! It must be a hectic day for you,” George pointed out.“You are right but it is worth it.”“Yes. You achieved a lot. Congratulations.”“Thank you but there is a problem,” Tim stated.George f
Mr. Kennedy looked at Tim before he faced George and responded, "Kindly appreciate Gerald for considering me. My opponent would have displaced me.""That is good to hear. My Manager will be here shortly with the receipt of your purchase.""It is okay," he said and they began to wait."What do you care for? Tea or coffee?""Coffee, please."George called Bright's attention and he arrived at once. He served the guest a cup of coffee and before he could walk out, Capt. Abram walked in while Tim and Richard excused them.Mr. Kennedy was so happy with the deal after he got the payment receipt. "You can communicate with the manager also whenever you want to order goods," George advised him.He was delighted to hear that and requested a photograph with George.They smiled and Capt. Abram advised him, "Mind what you do with it or you may attract enemies to yourself.""I am aware of that. I will be careful," he responded and they posed for a photograph.Capt. Abram used his phone to help out
He left the parlor and walked back to his room. The thought of Ella's arrival warmed his heart and he began to watch the time in anticipation.A few minutes before her arrival, he walked to the garden and sat down. He looked at the flowers and noticed that he had not pruned them for some time and resolved to do that in the evening."Hello, Old Man," she greeted him joyously and he smiled lavishly."Welcome, Ella. How is work?""Work is fine. How is your day?""Fine. I will be busy with the flowers this evening. I will take my herbal soup after that. Will that be okay?"Ella looked at the flowers and agreed with him, "It is all right. But it will make you go to sleep earlier and we will not chat today.""Oh, my God.""Yes. You will not make me laugh before I go to sleep," she pointed out."It is just for today.""I can understand. You need to work or your boss will be offended.""Thank you for your understanding," he appreciated him and took the fruits alone.At The Head of State's Off
At The Mining Field Valentine and Fabian returned from Birmingham the previous night after ensuring that Ann had settled down. They were at work when Richard arrived and they welcomed him warmly. After the greetings, he informed Fabian that he would perform at the event and he was excited.“Thank you, Major, for finding me worthy to be at the occasion.”“You are welcome. Kindly give me your stage photograph and name,” he requested and he did.“Thank you, so much for accepting the invitation despite the short notice.”“It is my pleasure, Major. I haven't been to Mount Olive before. How do I find my way?”“The supervisor will bring you. You will arrive incognito so that the youths will not overcrowd the event.”“I got it, Major.”“Good. Kindly share your bill and payment details with me,” Richard requested.Valentine who was smiling happily all the while said, “I'm happy for you, Fabian.”“Thank you, Supervisor,” he said and faced Richard, “I appreciate the gesture, Major. I will do th
The General Manager believed him and said, “The manual is there. You should have read through it.”“I did. But I had a problem along the line.”“I see.”He stood up immediately and appreciated him, “I'm grateful,” he said and returned to the Secretary's office.To avoid exposing himself, he brought out his phone and the manual. Then, he looked at the clerk and requested, “Kindly put me through on how to use the phone.”He smiled and walked to him. He sat beside him and began to teach him. As a good student, he learned faster, and appreciated him afterward, “Thank you for your assistance.”“It is my pleasure,” he responded and returned to his seat.Then, Tim got up, looked at Stephanie, and said in a low tone, “It's remaining one a half day.” She smiled softly and he walked away. Meanwhile, the edited jingle of the ceremony was on air. The posting of news was not as domineering as it was the previous day.At Mount Olive The edited jingle left much to be desired. Instead of including
“Huh!” He exclaimed and laughed euphorically.Tim was infested and laughed as well.“How can I invite them?” He asked him.“Are they not your friends? Let me have the names of the friends you wished to invite.”“It is all right,” he said and gave him the names of eight Dukes and he walked away.He got to his room and contacted the fake Duke and asked him to invite them.“Sir, we have invited them but they declined the invitation,” he answered.Tim was surprised and asked him, “Why? Did they give any reason?”“Not at all. They arrogantly turned the invitation down.”“It is all right,” he said and ended the call.At Lt. Col. Ben Smirnoff's Office He has been as happy as a lark and dancing with all his might since the breaking news.“They are no longer searching for the poster of the scandalous post. Maybe they searched and could not get me," he said to himself and continued dancing. Unfortunately, he had no friends to share his joy with nor did anyone call to rejoice with him. Not bec
Tim walked into George's office and they locked eyes. He noticed that he was sad and inquired, “What's up, Boss?”“I don't know how the boys would cope with a new Commandant,” he sat down and responded.“You just said my mind. You should have advised the Second in Command.”“The Head of State distorted his work after he submitted the list to him.”“Ha! He must have his reasons.”“What could be his reason? That was the man responsible for the scandal against him,” Tim blurted out.George was bewildered and he locked eyes with him. After a while, he spoke, “Maybe he wished to disgrace him by sending him to where he cannot function well.”Tim looked at him for a while before he said, “You may be right. I have not thought of that. But he should not joke with the children's studies.”“Let's watch out.”Tim wanted to speak but the door opened and he halted. George smiled when he saw the visitor. Tim turned and saw the General Manager. He got up at once and greeted him, “Good morning, Maj.
Kay did not want to argue further with him and concurred, “It is good, Your Excellency” “Good. Publish the postings and the take-off date and time at once.”“I will do that, Your Excellency.”“It is all right. You can leave.”“It is all right, Your Excellency,” they appreciated him simultaneously and walked away. At The Second in Command's OfficeThey got to Kay's office and he asked Tim, “What kind of posting is this?”“Huh! Can Ben manage the school?”“It baffles me. I thought he would punish him because of that scandalous post against the school and the government,” Kay stated.“I thought so as well. Does it mean that he is compensating him for working against his government?”Kay walked to his swivel chair and sat down while Tim sat on the visitor's seat and waited for his response.“That is the challenge. He will assume that his act was not discovered.”Tim noticed that he was angry and pacified him, “Don't let it bother you. Just publish the postings.”“Thank you for your conce
At The President's Office Bright and Gilbert have observed that George laughed exceptionally aloud whenever Tim was with him and that day was no different. He walked in after he left the General Manager's office. Nevertheless, George had been curious to hear the outcome of his visit.He looked at his hand and grimaced his face, “What did he give to you?” He asked him anxiously.“I have not checked it,” he answered and sat down.He brought the gift out of the shopping bag and a smile beamed across his face, “It is a handset,” he announced happily.“Wow! What did you do for him to attract this? I mean what attempted deceit did you foil during the Widow and Widowers Empowerment Program?”Tim laughed and narrated the story. George laughed aloud and pointed out, “Oh! They don't value you but wish to enrich themselves through you.”“Just imagine that but he regretted it. Seeing a supposed ghost will disturb him any time he remembers it.”“You are right. Congratulations on your New Year gif
Tim shook his head and asked her, “What is remaining? Just make it five times a week.”“No. I'm not selfish. Four and a half are all right by me.”“Not selfish indeed. If I do, what will I tell your boss is my reason for frequenting his office?”Now, the die was cast and she looked forlorn. They locked eyes for a while and saw the burning desire they had for each other in their eyes. Tim looked away and his eyes fell on her phone.“Your phone is fine,” he complimented her.She smiled happily and said, “Thank you for the compliment. It was my birthday gift.”“Wow! That birthday cake was one in town and now this.”“I was shocked as well. Even the former President's wife had not celebrated her birthday with such size of cake,” she explained.“I see. What is the brand of the phone? Let me take a look.”She innocently gave him her phone and he pretended to be studying it. He kept her busy with compliments while connecting her phone to his. When he was done, he teased her by asking, “Can w
At The Complex Soon, he was in the complex. He got out of the car and Richard drove off at once.Tim walked into the lobby, greeted his men with his head, and walked to the elevator. He pressed the button of the last floor and waited. When it opened, he walked in.The unfriendly-looking security team answered his greetings and let him in. He walked in and greeted Bright and Gilbert accordingly before walking into George's office.He was happy to see him and asked him immediately, “How did it go?”“It went well. They have started planning how to visit the house.”“Huh! So early?”“It baffles me too. Samuel reminded me of the Waitangi Day holiday.”George laughed aloud and Tim was infested.Nevertheless, Major Bolton came around earlier to have a private meeting with George before the Weekly Meeting. He heard them laughing and wondered if another manager was there. He opened the door and walked in and was surprised at their familiarity. “Good morning, Major,” Tim got up from the visit
Likewise, he sent a message to Richard and informed him that they arrived safely. He pleaded for an off on Monday. Afterward, he began to wait for his response.He had been busy since he disembarked and had not gone online. Now that he had settled in his hotel room, he could do that. He was shocked to see their story and pictures trending.He furrowed his forehead and asked himself, “Who is doing this?”Presently, he was panting and sweating despite the January cold. He sat up from the bed and read the details of the story quickly. To his delight, the post was not harmful and his details were not explicit.He tossed his phone aside and breathed in and out before lying back on the bed.“What will she do if she finds out about my past?” He asked himself.“What about her parents and brother? They are too morally upright to accept me as their son-in-law,” he lamented.The fear that he would lose her gripped him at once and he began to cry like a baby. At that point, he could not think of
