Chapter 205:
Detective Steve immediately leaned in closer, his breath was a bit hot, he stared at Lieutenant Alex before adding, “Maybe you got bought out later for all we know.”“Lord Lex has deep pockets. The Black Triangle Syndicate throws money around like confetti and the popular children's imaginary figure called Santa Clause.”“We all know that money can really make most people change their stand in what they actually once believed in.”“How much did it take, Lieutenant Alex? A new house? A fat bank account? Or was it a threat? Did they get to your family?” Detective Steve continued as he asked Lieutenant Alex trying to get words from his mouth.“Detective Steve it's not any of that bullshit you are talking about! You know that!” Lieutenant Alex shot back, his fists clenching at his sides.“My sister's gone, my parents too are gone, all because of bad people Lord Lex, Lara Peterson and her crew of which the latter are actually dead.”“I have already dedicated my whole life to this elite div
Chapter 204:
The situation was intense as everyone stared at Lieutenant Alex expecting him to say something.His legs were already beginning to fidget slowly before immediately spoke up, his voice was a bit quaky as he spoke.“Lieutenant Alex, why the heck would even begin to…think that I would ever betray General Carl Gerald?”“Dude, he is the General Carl Gerald of the Elite Divisions Military units for crying out loud, no one dares betray him and goes against him and wins!”“Why would I even want to go against General Carl Gerald?” Lieutenant Alex asked as he stared at Detective Steve, his face was now etched with a mix of curiosity and bewilderment.“Why do you tell us?” Detective Steve immediately replied as he stared askance at Lieutenant Alex.“You were the only one on the Comms through that mission, Mr Eliot couldn't have done it because we took his phone, remember.”“So tell us Lieutenant Alex, did you freaking rat us out to Lord Lex?”“How much did that freaking bastard even pay you to b
Chapter 203:
The situation was intense and palpable as everyone stared at General Carl Gerald who hadn't even paid one attention to their conversation for the last ten minutes. General Carl Gerald had been quiet, standing by the window now, staring out at the city lights. He turned slowly, his face was like a mask of thought, the weight of leadership was heavy on him almost pressing down upon him.His thoughts went on rampage as he recalled exactly how Mrs Amber Gerald, his mother, had died. Before her death, she had actually made Carl Gerald swear to always stand by Sara Gerald, his sister and fight for her no matter what happens to them. Carl Gerald had actually agreed to that before the day the henchmen from the Black Triangle Syndicate had attacked their home, killed her mom and burnt their mansion with her mother's dead body inside.Turning immediately, his gaze fell on the face of Detective Steve who had asked him the question.“Detective Steve, and everyone of you, my current issue is ac
Chapter 202:
Detective Steve's voice was laced with a mixture of reason and determination as he stared at Sara Gerald before continuing.“If Sara Gerald steps out, even for a job, it could draw them right to us…and that is exactly what we are trying to avoid at the moment.”Lieutenant Alex leaned forward, his voice low and laced with urgency. “Exactly. Sara Gerald, think about it, just sit down and think about it for a minute or two.”“You're General Carl Gerald's sister. That makes you a prime target for these bastards!”“A tech job sounds harmless, but what if it's a setup? We've seen infiltrations before. Nurse Angela, Doctor Marvin—they were insiders turned bad back at the Elite Divisions Military units secret health facility.”“I would say we keep you close, train you more if needed, but not expose yourself.”Sara Gerald threw her hands up, frustration bubbling over. “Train me more? For what, another warehouse showdown?”“I don't want to live like a soldier! I want coffee runs, deadlines, ma
Chapter 201:
“As it stands I don't know exactly what we are going to be facing next!”“We have to be prepared for the very worst any moment from now, I really don't believe Lord Lex would take his granddaughter's death that lightly.”“He might try to do something very funny to Sara Gerald or any one of the team members just so as to get back at General Carl Gerald for the death of his granddaughter, Lara Peterson.” Detective Steve's voice was laced with a mixture of determination and measured curiosity.Lieutenant Alex immediately nodded from where he sat on the edge of the bed.His arm was in a sling from the warehouse fight. He winced a little as he shifted a little bit, but his eyes were very sharp. “Detective Steve's right. I've seen what happens when we let our guard down!”“My hand in this sling is simply as a result of me not taking my guard properly against that, Lara Peterson!”“Now can everyone see what has happened to me as a result of that?” Lieutenant Alex asked as he stared at Sara G
Chapter 200:
Sara Gerald immediately turned to General Carl Gerald and hugged him tightly.“Carl Gerald, you have always been my backbone even before mom was killed by Clyde Lex's goons…” Sara Gerald's voice was laced with emotions as tears welled down her eyes slowly.Debra Zachs, Detective Steve, Lieutenant Alex and Mrs Juliet Marcus immediately moved in towards General Carl Gerald and his sister Sara Gerald.“Sara Gerald, we have always got your back, you really don't have anything to be afraid of,” Mrs Juliet Marcus said softly, reaching out to squeeze Sara Gerald's arm. “We've been through the worst already, and look at us—we're still standing.”“We are not even standing, we are doing even better!”Sara Gerald immediately pulled back from the hug with her brother, wiping her eyes again with that black handkerchief. She looked around at everyone in the room, the fancy suite at Vesta Groups hotel that now belonged to General Carl Gerald. The place felt too big, too empty, even with all of th
