The truth they can't deny
“Is that enough proof for both of you, or do you know any other person that Ava would speak to like this?” Ethan asked and none of the men standing in front of him could provide an answer. “Cat suddenly got both of your tongues or you just lost your ability to speak all of a sudden?” Ethan asked again, after a long stretch of silence. Mike and Ross were still trying to come to realization with what they just heard, there is no doubt about it, everything from the sound of her voice to the things she said were convincing enough, because according to Gideon, their leader, it was Miss. Ava that called and informed him about Ethan’s involvement not the HR, which was quite weird or rather unusual. But the group had all brushed it off as Miss. Ava tried to pass information to Gideon himself, given how valuable he had become to the company instead of passing information through intermediaries or middlemen in the organization. “No one comes to mind,” Ross answered Ethan’s earlier question,
proof of power
“Get off your high horse boy, what the fuck did you mean by ‘your goods’? Do you know what it means if one of these goods isn’t properly packaged when we deliver it?” Ross questioned angrily, trying to find a way to arrange the crate into its proper way. But there was no way they will return it to the way it once was. “That’s a very huge contrast to the good boy slash personality that I was thinking you will have based on my first impression of you,” Ethan said, facing Ross with the same chilling cold look. Ross turned to face him, deep lines of fury had been etched on his forehead, his eyes were blazing with fury, all common sense or reasoning had been thrown out of the window, he couldn’t see what was right in front of him, what exactly it was that had rendered his partner-in-crime silent. “What the hell are you spewing?” Ross questioned, rising to his feet. The fact that Ethan or rather Jox like he knew Ethan to be was not admitting that he had done something wrong and apologiz
The rookie who saw too much
Ethan’s instincts were screaming something else entirely. It destroyed the confusion that had taken root in his mind. ‘Gay? That’s the best excuse that they can come up with?’ Ethan pushed the chair he was seated on backwards. “Give me a minute, I will be back, I have something to pick up, I think I forgot it in the vehicle.” Before he could rise to his feet, Gideon reached forward and grabbed his hand, “Hold on, rookie. Miss. Ava said, " I should show you the ropes. This lunch break is my only opportunity to teach you about the rules. Whatever it is that you want, Sam can pick it up for you.” Ethan’s mask had been taken off to eat, so Gideon could see the slow change of Ethan’s facial expression. “I don’t believe that, you had other times to tell me about these rules while on the drive down here, and I am pretty sure that you can tell me when we resume the drive,” Ethan replied, trying to pull his hand away from Gideon’s grip, but the latter tightened it. “I didn’t have time to
The break before the storm
The security guys set upon the road, all of them with their masks on their faces. Sam and Doe were the ones driving the truck, while the remaining people were in another car behind, a black Cadillac escort vehicle. Ethan was in the back passenger seat with The Big Guy and Ross, while Mike was driving the car with Gideon occupying the front passenger seat. Nothing eventful happened throughout the first 30 minutes of the drive, the only thing that happened, which didn't really mean much, was that the escort vehicle drove forward. It wasn't like he was expecting anything that really matters to happen, though. Until Gideon finally spoke. All through the interactions and laughter that had been going on among the other men in the vehicle, he didn't interfere with them or join them. “Pull over.”Ethan kept his cool and remained as he should have been, but deep down he couldn't help but wonder why Gideon had asked Mike to pull over. The latter did so without hesitation. He pulled over
The big guy
“I am Jax Addams. I am among the security staff at the headquarters. Sincerely, I only received a call from Miss. Ava last night that I am to join the escort vehicles from now on and should no longer be joining the security at headquarters again till further notice,” Ethann said to Gideon, placing both of his hands behind his back. “This is the first time that headquarters would be moving security from there to other places,” Gideon said, tilting his head slightly to the side as he reached into his back pocket to pull out a pack of cigarettes. He tapped on the bottom of the pack a couple of times until one popped up through a hole at the top of the pack. He pulled it out completely and placed it between his lips, then he turned the pack to Ethan. Ethan shook his head to reject the offer, “I think you are wrong, though, because I have had a couple of people I call brothers moved from there for no reason to other units or branches.” “Damn, I had no idea that such things do happen,”
The new recruit
Ethan stood in front of the cars in his garage, quite curious about which to ride, he finally settled on his car with the old paint and beat-up-looking body. With a nod, he walked back into the building and picked up the key, then returned to the garage, where he got into the car. The goal was not to draw any attention to himself, even if he were to draw any attention to himself, it doesn’t have to be loud or anything apart from the fact that he is a newbie. He looked at the rearview mirror and pulled down the mask on his face. He was completely dressed in the kit that Ava had provided to him this morning. He had expected her to send someone with it, instead, she brought it herself. It felt like she wanted to discuss something, but for some reason she couldn’t let it out. Ethan was curious as he ignited the engine of the car, then drove onto the asphalt. Since when was the mighty, courageous, and extremely bold Ava shy to mention something? He shook the thought from his head. Th
