77: Stay With Me
Achilles and the two Brigadiers were unfazed by his tantrums. If he dared expose his position, he'd be eliminated without a second thought.Achilles’s strange feeling about Dora's rescue operation was manifesting, and the unexpected assassin's enforcement was proof of that.A while ago before David was assassinated. The gang leader had called for Plan B activation and what he requested had arrived.The gang leader's phone was tracked by enforcement assassins who were on standby just in case there was a shortage of men.This idea was initiated by the cartel’s chief enforcer, Victor Escobar who didn't want to take further chances.The gang leader's phone started buzzing and it was from the last person he'd want to speak with until the mission was accomplished.He eventually picked while cursing himself in silence. He dared not avoid the enforcer's call as long as he was still alive.Victor Escobar's voice came in rough, “You called for backup? You had secured the girl right?”The gang l
76: Avenging Little Cousin
More rounds were fired for over ten seconds to send a threatening message to whomever had tailed them to the supposed abduction spot.The three remaining assassins did well in taking good covers and so far weren't exposed for the warlord and brigadiers to take out.The gang leader had signaled his fellow assassins to release shots to trigger their unknown enemies out of their hidden spots, but so far it hadn't worked as envisaged.Achilles clenched his fingers and held them still, which sent a clear message to the two Brigadiers.The assassins had discharged a series of firearms through impulsion and mere instincts, but all were blind spots. They assumed one of those shots would hit their unknown intruders but that didn't happen.Achilles had turned off the vehicle headlight to enhance a silhouette mood, but that wasn't the case for the assassins, as both the van and Dora's car’s headlights were on.The gang leader mumbled under his breath, “They’re professionals. They wouldn't shoot
75: Good Luck Brigadiers
Escobar chipped in, expecting a call from the assassins, “Good. You got him on your palm girl.”Dante tried not to wear his jealousy on his face for obvious reasons. He felt he was missing something about Lucia dumping him for Johnson Brentford, Mr. Montoya.He felt there was more behind Lucia’s decision that she hadn't told him about. The rejection happened rather quickly, and he was yet to shake it off.Escobar chimed in once again, “The law enforcement hasn't got further concrete evidence to tie your neck around the rope. They knew it'd be a long battle to have you arrested if they failed to garner enough incriminating proof against you.”“Thankfully, the stupid disloyal assassin who mentioned your involvement is dead and wouldn't testify against you in court if there were trials.”Lucia sighed in relief as Escobar's words felt therapeutic. Those were the same words her husband whispered to her ear while vowing his undying support.Did Achilles make the wrong decision in eliminatin
74: Only If She Knew
After Victor Escobar’s call conversation with one of the assassins which was on a loudspeaker.Lucia Montoya waved a hand across to spill a word. The executive heads of the cartel threw her a complicated stare.Their blood boiled hot with utter displeasure at how everything they had plotted after the failed Prime Minister's assassination scheme had gone south.Since the phone call, the room had been flushed with awkward silence with their faces contorted with deep concern.It was looking like the universe had arisen to distort anything they did. They pondered what's so hard in apprehending a young lady in over ten minutes of car chase.Lucia Montoya still parted her lips for words, “If it were the butchered assassins on this job, Dora would have been caught already.”On reflection, they shot a weird gaze at her once more. Victor Escobar tried keeping his composure from scolding the hell out of her.Those were the least words they expected, and coming from her, screamed all shades of w
73: Dora's Ticking Clock
Brig. Beauty tightened her grip on Margaret's shoulders at the sound of Anthony’s full explanation. She wrapped her hands firmly on her while she dripped in hot tears.It was a gesture of acknowledgement that she was harsh on Anthony and that none of what was happening was his fault. She could have handled her emotions better and remembered he was also in a panic state.The Faithfuls narrowed their eyes in muffled admiration of how smart Anthony was in activating future cautionary measures.For a moment during the panic rollercoaster, the Faithfuls forgot he was an experienced investigator and one of the ways to stay alive in the work was by having survival instincts.Achilles mouthed, “Alright, that's it. Send in the tracker’s coordinates. Like right now.”The call ended.Anthony’s hands quivered as he nodded about to do as the warlord commanded.He mumbled countless positive prayers under his breath, hoping the rescue mission went as successfully as his. Dora could be stubborn; he h
72: Not Jumping The Gun
Brig. Beauty's chest almost leaped to her throat while yelling at Investigator Anthony Jordan.Dora Beauty was the only family she had, and if by the slightest chance something messy happened to her tonight, then hell would surely break loose.She had been protective of Dora from her childhood era— she didn't only play the role of an older sibling but that of a parent, regardless of the four-year age difference.The crossfire of the illegal business investigation had taken a toll on her. The last time it was Anthony, and with no break, her little sister has become a target.“I-I’m sorry!”Anthony’s voice dripped with cracks. He feared that if he didn't at least make a statement, the undisclosed apartment he was in could quiver from the rage of Rachael's voice.All she wished was to hear her little sister's annoyingly beautiful voice once again.Anthony found his voice back, “Earlier, we had a conversation, and she mentioned meeting our wedding planner, which I frowned at. I told her i
