2023-09-27 13:49:53Rex paused his thoughts, waiting for the man to declare everything was a joke and that they were playing a sick joke on him. However, the elderly man had a serious face on.
The director's phone beeped
"DNA says you are not related, so you must be a doppelganger," he said and ordered Rex to make a decision.
"Everything is a Joke, right?" Rex finally spoke.
The man warned, "Mr Grayson, with your pretty face, men will make a meal out of you. Therefore, my advice is to sign a contract with us.
Rex swallowed hard, asking the man to show him his ID. He understood he already said who he worked for but he needed to be sure.
The director removed his badge and gave it to Rex.
"What exactly does the NSA do?" he asked.
"More like the CIA but we have jurisdiction in the country and way above them," the old man smiled.
"So if I get this job, I will not save time?"
The old man smiled again, "Yes and I think we are wasting time discussing your doubts," the director said and removed a contract from his file. "You go to Israel or you become someone's wife in prison," he joked.
Rex got up, nervously moistening his dry lips. Desperation etched its way into every crease.
"Sit down, Grayson!" the man ordered.
Rex's hands twitched spastically, he was all sweaty and his breathing ragged. The deal in front of him was too good to be true.
"Mr Grayson, your decision, we have other candidates waiting for this opportunity," the old man insisted.
Rex looked at the contract again, one did not trust the man but one thing was right. He was going to be turned into everyone's bitch plus a punching bag in prison.
"But…but I have no experience…I work in an office job," he stated.
"Your first assignment will not need any skill. Just show up at a restaurant. The person will confirm your face and hand you a briefcase," the man explained
"Restaurant?" Rex asked.
"Yes in Israel, full of customers. The person only trusts Chad," the director emphasized and pulled the contract from Rex's hand.
Rex pushed it back, he had taken a fall for a crime he did not commit so he was not going to let a miracle pass him.
As it stood, he was already a dead man in the prison walls.
"Pen… pen," he said out.
The director handed him a pen and he quickly signed it.
For unknown reasons, he felt like the weight of the five-year sentence he was given, lifted off him.
The director grabbed the contract, Placed it in his file and asked him to wait.
Rex watched as the man walked out of the room.
He let out a sigh, wondering what was going to happen next.
The door opened and a woman dressed in what appeared to be military walked in with the director following from behind.
"This is not going to work!" she said, staring at Rex.
"He looks like a scared kitty," she got closer. "And he does not smell like Chad but smells of piss," she turned away.
Rex looked away embarrassed
"Prep him up and make him look and smell like Chad," the director ordered, walking out of the room.
The woman rolled her eyes and asked Rex to get up.
"Hurry up, we only have two hours," the woman said.
Rex quickly got up and was taken to a bathroom where he was ordered to shower up.
After he was done, a hair stylist was brought in to make him look very identical to the late Chad and he was finally put in a suit and handed a briefcase.
Rex stood in front of the mirror in an expensive tailored suit and a slicked-back haircut, unable to recognise himself.
The woman walked back into the room this time with a smile.
A jet will take you to Israel, and a man will pick you up at the airport," she ordered.
"What… NOW!" Rex asked.
"You blow your cover, we send you back to jail," the woman warned.
Rex swallowed hard, his heart on the verge of bursting out.
"The mission is simple, the driver will drop you at the restaurant and you are to sit in the back seat and wait for a woman dressed in white," she explained.
"The woman will hand you a briefcase and you are to hand her yours," she added and warned him not to say any words to the woman.
Rex nodded and before he knew it, he was in Israel getting picked up by the driver and was already in his seat at the restaurant.
He was shaking, his heart was practically in his hands.
The door opened and a woman in white with a briefcase walked in and sat from across the table.
He quickly handed her his briefcase but to his horror, she pointed a gun at him under the table and asked for the safe word.

Chapter 194
Rex sat in his office, waiting for the deliberations on his application for the Director position. The supervisors were locked for over an hour, debating while he sat in front of his laptop watching Peter run mad. It was two days in his holding cell, waiting for bail and for his lawyer who was trying to prove that Chelsea was not mentally stable and her confession was not reliable or credible in court. The man was busy tearing into Chelsea’s life and exposing her with a list of all the government officials she once slept with and all the illegal activities she was involved in. Their main goal was to tarnish Chelsea’s name so that she was deemed not credible to confess in any courtroom. Rex did not interfere, he sat back and watched from a distance as the two went on exposing their sex scandal and dirty laundry. Finally, his phone beeped. The supervisors were done. They called him and he entered the office very confident. “Congratulations Rex Grayson, you are officially the

Peter Banks was placed in handcuffs and taken to the van that drove him to the private detention center. He was calm and did not show any signs of resistance or frustration. He was more interested in the person who was going to lead the investigation, considering the dirt he had on all the directors and deputies in various agencies. That was why he was untouchable; everyone was dirty and was supposed to know not to go poking in other people’s business. He was taken into a room, and in minutes, his supervisors and deputy walked in.“I will advise everyone to think or visit their lawyers before they say anything here,” he warned in an orderly tone.The door opened, and Rex walked in.“What the fuck is he doing here!” he yelled.“Rex is now part of our team and is leading this investigation,” the deputy announced, sending Peter slamming on the chair.He looked at his supervisor.“Last we checked, you are the one who recommended him, and it took him only a day to get a confession,” the

Rex headed for the NSA building and could see cars following him. He looked in the mirrors and stepped on the gas.The confession was going to reach the tribunal whether he was alive or dead.“Sir, take your next exit, we will block the cars,” the watchers assured him.Rex made a turn, and his phone rang.He looked at the caller, and it was Peter.He answered it, wanting to hear the old fool’s voice one last time.“Where is my daughter!” Peter yelled.“Cremated in a vessel,” Rex replied.Peter paused, his breath audible.“Do not worry, they placed her in two vessels, and I intend to bring one to your prison cell, plus my drug so that you get to live longer and save your sentence,” Rex replied and hung up.“You stupid fool! I will blow up! How could you cremate my daughter without me!” he yelled, but Rex had already hung up on him.He dialed the line, but it went on ringing.Frustrated, he called the men who were following Rex.They needed to abduct Rex, dead or alive.“How far! Why am

Rex slowly pulled away from the hug, tears streaming down his cheeks.“Ever since that woman walked into your life, you made her your priority and then your son came, and finally you were on your road to recovery,” he added and looked down. “You were nearly there Rex, you were almost there.”Tears kept flowing.It was his father’s job to say the right thing at the moment. Rex was his son, and condemning him was not his part.They went on with the funeral procession, after which we headed to one of Rex’s mansions Rex’s father walked up to him with Sam in his hands.“The little man missed you," he said.Rex smiled and held the baby in my arms.His father cleared his throat.“You are coming with us, right?" he asked.Rex kept his gaze on the baby.“Rex, this is where the vengeance ends. That man killed his own daughter, and as a father, that would be the worst kind of karma,” he stated.Rex kept staring at the baby.His phone beeped; it was the watchers.He gave the phone one glance and

“Where is my daughter?” Peter kept demanding from the hospital administrator.His daughter was supposed to be at St Luke, the other officers confirmed that's where they sent the body, but only to be told the hospital had no idea where the body was.He called his deputy, who kept ignoring his calls.Everyone he was calling had no idea where she was taken, and neither did he have an idea of Chelsea’s whereabouts.He could smell Rex all over everything. Even in his daughter’s death, the stupid boy was being petty.He called Rex’s line but could not get through.Pissed, he called his men to turn the city upside down until Rex was found.“No, no, find Chelsea first! Find that stupid bitch!” he screamed.Meanwhile, Rex and Patricia stood over Rose’s body, clad in protective clothing.Patricia could not stop the tears. She had a lot of regrets. If only she had not called her daughter back or turned to alcohol or cried over the stupid divorce. Her daughter had found a life with the man she l
Chapter 189
The paramedics took Patricia away in the ambulance while Rex fixed his eyes on Peter, whose face was as grey as water-soaked chalk dust. It was the old man’s fault; he released Chelsea. He sent her to the function to kill him. He was the only one who had the power to infiltrate her into his security team. On the other hand, Peter could feel his legs numbing up; his daughter was dead. He killed his daughter; it was his fault. That was not a fact he could try to make excuses for or try to pull himself out of. He had known his family was going to be at the event, yet he risked it all. His only concentration was his target, to kill the target. To kill Rex Grayson He was led inside, ignoring Rex’s vicious eyes. He had expected the boy to be attacking him or throwing rants, but instead, he just sat there staring at him. “We finally have footage of what transpired,” the deputy announced and called Peter and other heads of the other agencies into a private room where they got to watch
