chapter 24

Mr Mc Millan felt bad as he ended the call. One of his informants called to inform him that the guy he sent to fetch tangible information about Me Smith to him has been caught by Smith's men and he knows that's close to the end for him.
He needs to act fast and send words across to one of his friends who is a legal practitioner for the documents he found as evidence against Mr Smith so that charges will be pressed sooner before he comes for him.
He dialled Bar. Jake's number and was glad he picked at the second ring. "Hello, Jake? It's been ages since we last spoke how are you doing?" He talked first.
He heard a sigh from the other end before the guy replied, "Have you fallen into some kinda problem cause I believe your calling me means that there's something up your sleeve" Bar. Jake hushed.
"That's not particularly true, but I don't want to talk about matters like that while I'm in danger!"
"Wait�� I said it! What sort of danger are you? Have you breaken the law?"
"No, that's not it. Actually, someone else broke the law and he's still on it as we speak until maybe we stop him. I have evidenced that's enough to send him to prison or probably to the grave"
"How sure are you about this info you are delivering? I don't want fake news and I hate it when someone plays with my intelligence!"
"I am more than sure about this, I will send you everything and you will see for yourself, bye"
"Okay, till then"
Mr Mc Millan cut the call and placed his phone on the counter as he thought of what to do next before it's too late to defend himself and defeat that man.
He hired the wrong guy to work for him, and to think that he didn't keep to his own part of the deal! Who does Smith think he is anyway? He thought venting his anger on the counter.
He has touched the tiger's tail by killing one of his men�� "he wants war, I will give him war! I can't run out of this City because of a man that has just one head like me, no way!!"
One of his security men ran inside, "Sir, what is it? Do you need anything, Sir?" He asked, obviously thinking that he called him.
"Get lost!" He thundered.
The guy scurried away frantically.
Mr Mc Millan took his phone again and called one of his men and ordered him to get more men and get ready for war against Smith and his men.

Sonia sat propped up over the roof of the building staring at space. She remembered when she was Daddy's princess and mummy's pet.
Looking back in time when things was alright, still intact and in shape��she recalls her arrogant self in school and her eyes filled with tears.
"Mummy, Daddy, I miss you so much and, I hope you are happy there beside your Maker? I wish I know who did that to you��" she wailed.
Sonia, the leader of the bad girls geng in High school, the rich brat, the most popular and beautiful girl in school is now worth nothing.
She still can't believe it! She didn't imagine that such ridiculous thing would happen to her, that the world that was hers to conquer is now against her, she didn't ever in her weirdest dreams imagine it.
Tears wetted her flawless face, she didn't try to stop it, some times, it feels good to just cry and taste your tears when you feel your life is at the end point.
"Sonia?" Stella called, she didn't hear her come in.
So she turned her face surprisingly and fought to hide her face at the same time. "Ehm�� what?" She managed.
"Were you crying? Was that tears I saw on your face?" Stella asked curiously.
"Crying? No, not really�� I was just��"
"Wait a minute, don't tell me you are crying because Justin lost his memory and doesn't remember you again?!" Stella cut her off.
"What? I��" she wanted to spill, but she found no reason to travel through the memory lane again, so she said slowly, "he doesn't even remember his name, he must be hurting"
Stella has a gospel to spread to the others, she's a frenemy�� she's so jealous of this lucky girl that she saved and was once happy for, she has to spoil her name by all means.
It's a good thing Justin doesn't remember her, she would do anything to drive Sonia out and make him fa for her charms�� isn't she beautiful enough to do that? And she would strive to get Mrs Smith's attention again!
She just has to pretend to be her friend, a good one and get Justin to start liking her and she would shove her through the window.
"Too bad and it hurts for a friend to be left in such a condition, right?" She asks, and Sonia nods sadly.
"It shall be alright, honey. Let's go inside, okay?" She said.
Sonia accepted and they took the stairs down to their room.
