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.

    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.

    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.

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

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.

    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.

    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.

    "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?"
