At The Front DeskLaura was greatly pleased when she got Barr. Wentworth's email and imagined what to do with two million pounds sterling.“They thought that they are smart,” she told herself and continued with her work.It was not long, Ella walked into the lobby. Due to the cold shoulders Laura gave to her previously, she retaliated by treating her with disdain as well. She walked past her and headed to the elevator. Meanwhile, Laura concluded that she was going to see Bright. She was not bothered about her greetings but concentrated on her work. Soon the elevator gates opened and she walked in.At The Legal UnitAfter Barr. Fitzgerald returned, he sent for Ella through her Supervisor. He was waiting for her when she walked in and greeted him happily.“Good morning, Barrister.”“Good morning, Miss Patrick. Kindly sit.”“Thank you for the offer,” she said and sat down.“Take a look at this email,” he said and pushed the printed copy of the email to her.She grimaced and collected the
At The Guardroom Cpl. Simpson returned to the guardroom and asked the money bag questions and he was mute. He would not like to implicate his colleagues by involving them or revealing his address.“I intend to remove it by myself,” he explained.“Where will you take it to?” He asked angrily.“I know where to take it,” he answered.The Corporal glared at him and asked, “What do you take us for?”To avoid more trouble, he kept quiet.“Get ready for your work,” he thundered.The money bag breathed freely and watched the Corporal walk away angrily.“I should have allowed them to park their car anywhere they liked,” he thought regretfully.“I have been shut out of the world,” he lamented.Nevertheless, the Corporal returned to the President's office to inform him of the development. George listened to him carefully and gave him an option.“He didn't want us to know his gang members, as though he can stop us if we are interested in them.”“You are right, General.”“If he thinks that we are
At Tim's HouseHe waited for her to answer the question, but she could not. He grinned in pleasure at her sudden loss of eloquence.“Even with four million pounds sterling, she can't do anything meaningful with her life,” he said.“Does she have two fathers? Is it the one that was chatting that was poisoned?” He asked himself and turned off his device.He walked to his room to take a nap. After changing to simple wear, he laid on the bed and closed his eyes but his phone ringtone would not allow him.“Oh, my goodness!” He exclaimed and sat up.He picked up the phone and was amazed to see the caller.“Good evening, Your Excellency,” he greeted him.“Good evening, Tim. Turn on your television if you are close to it.”“It is all right, Your Excellency,” he said and complied.He saw the Head of State of a powerful nation, Kingsland, Field Marshall Brian Foxe, boasting in his broadcast. He was threatening to wipe away a smaller and powerless nation, Oregany from the surface of the earth.“
At The Front DeskAfter George got up, he walked out of his office and headed to the Production Department. He envisaged that the Sales Manager would be with Capt. Miles to inform him of the order and he imagined rightly.Laura was upset when he saw him walking unperturbed as though there was no petition.“Why is the barrister delaying? He promised to come this morning and submit a hard copy,” she asked herself and began to wait.At The Production“I thought as much. I knew I would meet you here,” George announced joyously after greeting Capt. Miles.“What brings you, Sergeant?” Capt. Miles asked.“Concerning the order. Let us wait for clarifications from the client. He can't stop us from satisfying our regular clients,” he stated without quoting the President.“You are right. How can he monopolize us,” the Production Manager pointed out.“But he has paid,” the Sales Manager said.“We are not contesting that. But his standing order. So, keep accepting orders.”“I got it,” Capt. Abrams
He got up too and watched her walking away. “Thank you for coming.”“It is my pleasure.”Collins who had been waiting for her at the foyer got up at once and followed her. Tim was happy with the arrangements and wished to see the old man's face. To his delight, he walked into the parlor to update him on their meeting.“Old Man, do you wish to see me?” He asked pretending not to know that Ella was around.“Yes. The dietician came.”“Oh, that is good. How was your meeting?”“Our meeting went well. She recommended some herbs for me. She also recommended that I drink plenty of water.”“I see. What are the names of the herbs? I can ask Frank to get them.”The old man pouted and took the blame, “I should have written them down.”“No. She should have written them down for you. Is that how she would take care of her patient?” He asked angrily and the old man was despondent.He allowed his anger to quell before pleading on her behalf.“Don't be hard on her. She promised to give the list to
At The ComplexLaura expected to see Bright on the bus. That would help her in her conclusion about his status. To her disappointment, he was not there.“What is going on?” She asked herself and looked left and right like a pickpocket.Those who saw it were skeptical about her and wondered if she was normal.Nevertheless, Bright must taunt her. He walked to the bus and inquired, “Is Ted here?”“Look at Ted behind you,” his colleagues shouted and he turned.He feigned surprise and asked, “Why are you here? Are you not coming with me?”“I thought you wanted to give the former secretary a ride,” he answered with a silly grin, and the staff members, including the driver, burst into strident laughter.“Let's go,” he announced and they left leaving their colleagues laughing happily.The Next Day - At The HotelTim left with Richard after his breakfast and met Ambrose and his men ready. After their pleasantries, they moved and Tim was startled.“The bus driver and his attendant are citizens,
At Tim's HouseSgt. Courtney was a perfectionist and tried to imbibe the same in his workers. In addition to the other requirements, he encouraged Ella to prepare herbal soup for the old man and she did. Afterward, she turned it into a food flask.“Thank you for your advice, Sergeant. I will get going,” she appreciated him.“It is my pleasure.”Meanwhile, the old man was waiting patiently for her while different thoughts filled his mind.“I hope they have not sacked her because of yesterday's error?”“But she has not committed any offense.”“They should have allowed her to prove herself,” he hissed, ran his hand through his head, and continued to wait.Nevertheless, Collins was waiting for Ella at the canteen car park. As soon as she walked out with her stuff, he helped her to arrange them on the bus. Subsequently, she sat down and they left. She was not aware that Collins and the old man lived together so, she never bothered to ask about him.Meanwhile, the enticing aroma from her so
“Welcome back, Gerald and Samuel,” they greeted them simultaneously after they got out of the car.“Thank you, for having us,” they responded one after the other.George helped them to get their things from the car trunk and Tim drove to the garage.Nevertheless, the old man had been sleeping. The herbal soup had taken its toll on him. Despite the jubilation by everyone over their return, he did not wake up.George walked to his room and met him sleeping soundly. To avoid disturbing his sleep, he changed to his casual wear quietly and left for the parlor.Meanwhile, Tim and the boys had gone upstairs and George could hear their laughter. They took their things to their room while Tim walked to his room too.He slumped on the bed to release his stress and stretched himself.“What a day!” He exclaimed.He was annoyed when his phone rang and the other ones beeped with messages.“Oh, my God! Who is calling me?” He asked himself.Notwithstanding, he ignored all of them and breathed heavily
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
