EPISODE EIGHTEEN


    At first, the gate was knocked softly, but, when the gatekeeper got near the gate and refused to open it because the visitors didn't speak up, Jerry, the leader of the assassins jumped in and pushed him into his small house. Then, he opened the gate gently for his only accomplice to come in with him.

    The two walked inside the house briskly, leaving the gate wide open as they opened the door to the living room too. Jerry looked around the living room and dining room but found no one. He climbed the stairs and checked the first room, second one, third and even the fourth, but couldn't find the so-called Mike as Chief had told him.

    He got to the last room and zeroed his mind that if Mike wasn't in any of the rooms, he would definitely be in that last one. Breaking the door, he walked in suddenly and a handkerchief was pressed on his nose for some seconds while his mouth was closed so that he wouldn't breath. Just when he dropped his head, just as if he was asleep already, Jerry tapped his finger. "Carry him." He said to his accomplice and walked out.

    The young guy in his early twenties carried Henry accross his shoulder. As they stepped forward, Henry opened his eyes and closed it quickly. He noticed his vision was really blurred, but, he didn't fall asleep because he made sure he didn't inhale from the handkerchief but the little scent he could still smell had blurred his vision.

    He was pushed at the backseat of the vehicle parked outside as Jerry and his man hopped into the car and drove on. But, Henry was very groggy as he pretended to be asleep there. He would open his eyes but all was still blurr. He knew if he had inhaled from the handkerchief, he sure would be snoring that time. But it wasn't possible for him not to have sniffed the scent at all, at least when it was removed from his nose, he could still smell the scent around his moustache and nose.

    He couldn't rack his brain then, just opening his eyes and closing it almost immediately. The journey continued, the guys never stopped.

****

    The Prince who drove out of his company never bothered to follow Beatrice, but the cab Vivian entered into. He could read it in Beatrice that she had an irascible behaviour. He hadn't done much, just admiring Vivian. But, if he even did much, should she be that grouchy? But, Vivian wasn't a ferocious type. Or else, she would have slapped Beatrice as she she slapped her too.

    But, was he doing the right thing? He just wanted to know if she was fine and apologise for causing her the trouble. From all observations, it seemed she had been sacked already and he had made her loose her job.

    He finally followed her to Victoria's place of work and parked as she came down from the vehicle. He could see her still holding on to her left cheek, it must have been a bad bash from Beatrice. He waited for a while when he noticed that the cab driver was still at the front of the company too, it seemed she just went in to get something.

    After some minutes, he saw her, Victoria and Anthony walk outside and she waved at Victoria as she walked into the vehicle with Anthony. "Is she married?" Edward asked himself as he kicked the engine when Anthony locked the door. The car would move anytime.

    He kept following them, at least to know where they lived.

****

    It was the derelict part of the house. Dirty, dusky and dank. Henry was thrown into the small room and the door was locked up. He wasn't tied already, the guys still thought he was fast asleep when they dropped him in there and left so as to get the materials needed to glue him inside the room there.

    Henry, so-called Mike opened his eyes and he just saw some tiny holes from the roof that brought in rays of sunlight, but the room was dark and dirty as he could see. It seemed he was getting better but not totally well. He had tried to listen to the guys' conversations while bringing him there, he couldn't comprehend most of the things as the guys spoke.

    His vision was getting better. At least he could see how dirty the room was, even in that tenebrous state. He shook his head and thought of what was best for him to do. Suddenly, his heart began to race faster, as if he could see the shadow of death dancing around him.

     He held his breath for a while and sat up, giving out the long held breath. He swung his head to both left and right but saw no one. His eyes was getting habituated with the stygian confinement, so, it seemed he could see some packed materials in a corner there. He couldn't tell if he was in a room or a different house. But, it really didn't look like a house, it looked like a room without asbestos, just roofing sheets that had some holes in it.

    He couldn't tell where the crusty trepidation was coming from, but he really felt something bad would happen to him very soon. He reached for his mobile phone to call Nicholas to save him. But, he didn't know the exact place to tell him he was, besides he just remembered something. Yes, he remembered the guys kept mentioning a name till they got to that place where he was dropped. The name, he rolled his eyes as he looked round the place he was dropped. It was The Unknown.

    He pressed the side button of his mobile phone and unlocked it. He was searching for his mobile number and still turning his head around, if he was save.

    The door broke open and four guys stormed in.

****

    Prince Edward watched Vivian as she came down with her son and paid the cab driver. "This is her abode." He muttered under his breath as he drove off and hardly took his eyes off the two as they started battling with their gate.

    He couldn't tell what exactly that had came over him. He just thought a spirit was actually controlling him, if not, what would he call what was going wrong with him? He felt that was love at first sight, or was he attracted by her beauty? Yes, it seemed so! He couldn't hold it back as he saw Vivian walk into his office but to confess her beauty.

    He battled with his thoughts as he drove on. Have I ever seen a lady as beautiful as this? He kept asking himself series of questions. By the way, if nothing would make him like her, her personality would change his mind. Even though Beatrice was churlish, Vivian could hold herself back. It seemed she was fastidious, a flabby type who isn't weak but demure.

    Or was she trying to be coquettish because of the Prince? No, that wouldn't be. She didn't look like one who liked the Prince, why would she want to win his attention or admiration? He continued battling with the thoughts in his mind.

    He didn't even know what to do. He felt like turning back to meet Vivian, but, would that be the best idea? He pulled out of the road and marched on the break. Why on earth had it been so difficult to get her outta his mind? He blasted as he took a close look at his phone that buzzed.

    It was King's brother- Harry.

****

    Was he seeing the right thing? They were really four, or more than? Sure, they were just four guys. One of them was tall, lanky with oval head like that of water melon. He could see him with a cutlass that dazzled and reflected the sun to his eyes.

    The door had been flipped open, so, the darkness had faded away and he could see the light now. They didn't look as if they had come to wisecrack with him, but these guys were serious, blisteringly serious!

    The other three guys almost looked the same. They had broad shoulders and likely to have thick and husky voices. Their faces were as dark as charcoal and each one held a gun. Their hands weren't as soft as rice paper but as he could see, as hard as iron. Such hand must not be used on someone without giving up a ghost instantly. It looked as if the three guys were trained in the same place, or possible given birth to, by the same mother.

    "You came to spy on our Engineer, isn't it?" One of them blustered. He had said it, the voices of the latter three would be thick and husky. As presumed, this voice was even huskier than thought, thundering the whole places as he spoke and moved closer to him.

    He shivered. What would he say? He was even short of ideas that he kept his head low after he had examined the four of them. "Can't you talk?" Another voice boomed near him.

    "I know what he wants, once I throw one at his ankle, he will speak up." That made him actually know he was done for. That was a threat....

I think the main story thread should be locked. We are on Nairaland, not everyone will heed instructions. They'll one way or the other squeeze their comments in.
Contact a mod and get the thread locked. It will be opened once the next writer is ready to post and once he finishes, the thread locked.
Just my two cents.
Btw LarrySun, that was a nice and well detailed chapter there. A good way to start a blockburster such as this.

EPISODE SEVENTEEN


    Henry shivered. That event happening actually made him remember when he was still young and needed a sum of money of his school fee. His father was a tough man before his death and never did as if he heard his pleas concering the money. When the teacher had almost beaten him to death, he had no choice than to steal in his father's room.

    But, that was his father, mot Engineer Ashley at all. His father caught him in the act and dealt with him even more than how the teacher did to him. But wouldn't Engineer Ashley just kill him? He had thought as he fixed his eyes on him.

    One peculiarity about Engineer Ashley was that he hardly wouldn't forget either a file, document or some architectural designs at home. He just remembered he had forgotten to pick an architectural design that had to do with a special project awarded to the company. He hated it when a drivee or gatekeeper barged into his room to help him search, or else, he would have sent one of them to be of help to him. But, an ordinary cook in his room?

    Henry was moving backward, using his tilted leg to push in the drawer so that his punishment would be raised to the power of ten. He gave a short breath as he concluded that. Yet, Engineer was moving closer to he got to his front. "Madam.. em... what's even her name? Madam Beatrice told me to clean the kitchen and everywhere in the house. That's what I have been doing, Sir." He shook as he told him.

    "It was my daughter that told you to clean all the rooms in this house?" He asked again.

    "Yes.. yes sir."

    "Alright, no issue. No issue at all. Next time I meet you inside this room or next time you just enter into anyone's room without prior permission or notice, you're dead!"

    "Y..yes.. yes sir." He shivered and cruised to the left and mwde his way out of the room.

    "Why would Bibie ask him to clean up the rooms? By the way, hope he hasn't found this diary?" He opened the drawer and brought out the 'Confidential' diary. "I don't even know why I'm writing all these down, I should dispose this." He said as he flipped the pages.

    He hissed and hurried to his wardrobe to get the architectural design. As soon as he got it, he hurried out of the room.

    Walking through the living room swiftly, Henry who had finished eavesdropping all he said in the room saw him with the 'Confidential' diary. He walked into the kitchen quickly, he had to prepare lunch for Beatrice.

****

    "It's ten am already, ma'am." Vivian told Beatrice.

    "That's good of you, Vivian. I like people who are sensible and get their work done at the right time." She paused, "we should head on to the Prince's office." She said as she shut down the laptop before her.

    "Alright ma'am, let's go." She said as she walked on.

****

    "Nicholas, I think I found something." Henry said to Nicholas as he placed his mobile phone firmly to his ear and parading the small room given to him.

    Wiping his sweat, he sunk into the mattress and laid his back. "I said I found something." He repeated, perharps, Nicholas never heard him.

    "What's it? It pertains to our case, right?" Nicholas asked him quickly.

    "I am not sure. Engineer Ashley had gone to his place of work earlier and I was searching his room. Suddenly, the door flipped open and he walked in, asking me what I wanted. Before then, I found a diary which the word 'Confidential' was inscribed on it."

    "So, is he still at home?" Nicholas asked him.

    Henry was sure Nicholas was ready to get the diary instantly. "He took it along with him as he left the house. It seems he forgot something at home, so, he came that."

    "For him to have taken it, he must have suspected you."

    "I think so. He met me at his drawer and it was there he kept it." Henry replied.

    "Alright, no problem. Have you started preparing fried rice for the ladies?"

    "I'm going to start now." Henry replied.

    "Later then." Nicholas ended the call.

****

    "At first, I thought we'd have to get one of the criminals that kidnapped that small boy, but now that Mrs Priscilla waved it till weekend, I think they should be there." Craig told Doris.

    Doris nodded. "But, was there any other thing apart from the signature of The Unknown?"
  
    "Hmmn.." he giggled. "None. But, I just remembered something." He looked at her as he halted.

    Doris stopped too. "What is it?"

    "The Unknown and the little boy share the same redolence. They have the same scent, same perfume! Forever Mine."

    "Really? Let's go and check the list of those who do order for the perfume." Doris said as both hurried to the office. The list had been sent to them.

****

    Engineer Ashley's mind had been on race since he met Henry in his room. He wasn't sure if he had opened the drawer or even the diary. He had looked so concerned because he never wanted anyone to read the content of the diary.

    But, he wasn't so careless to have left something so confidential inside his drawer. He did keep it inside his traveling box and would always lock it a code not even known by Beatrice. He had to write something down inside it and that made him leave it inside the drawer beside his bed.

    At first, he wanted to shake it off but remembering Chief Sam, he shook his head. He had always wondered if The Unknown would come for him. At least, it wasn't Chief Sam alone that was involved in the act, but speaking to the other committee of four that was left, he was assured that all was well because Chief Sam wasn't careful enough.

    He gave a long breath. Mike wouldn't be connected with The Unknown, he had thought as he shook his head again and looked at the diary. He hissed, why would he even write down such things inside the diary? Why? He hit his thigh slightly as he pulled his lower lip in.

    But, why has been so concerned? He asked himself. Mike wouldn't have opened it. He surmised. But looking outside to ckear his evil thoughts, his mind struck it again and he picked his mobile phone to call Beatrice. He needed to know if she really sent him to clean the house.

****

    The diary.

    At least the deed had been done, the throne shouldn't be left empty for a long time. It was two weeks already and the King had been buried. Everyone was getting off the death of the King and expecting the new King to step on the throne.

    But as tradition had it, Prince Dennis must have a wife before he would be crowned as the next King of Taraka Kingdom. Now, the two weeks the Chiefs had given him just elapsed and the cabinet members were all seated in the palace, ready to see who the King-to-be would bring in as his wife.

    Harry had relaxed, ready to see his brother's choice. His weird thought had always been that Dennis would never get a lady to marry him within a week. Though, he was a Prince, even a handsome one. But, he knew he was always careful of the lady he would fall in love with. Would he ever get a good lady to marry within two weeks?

    Prince Dennis who had no one but the one he hsd started liking. He had promised not to stress himself before getting himself a suitable queen to be by his side always. His two weeks was just for him to transform Margaret to a Queen.

    It was a great surprise when he walked inside the gatheing and greeted the Chiefs on seat. He addressed them in a low tune and seated.

    "Your wife, our Queen." Harry who had been laughing said from his seat. He had been watching his brother for the two weeks. He never left the house to search foe any woman and he knew he had no one. Trying tk play his games well, incase if his brother found no woman, he might be the King. He grabbed a bright lady from the stream and started following her aound.

    Katherine was a tall and beautiful lady. A lady who just got to Taraka Kingdom after they were released from slavery in Maro by the slavehunters. She had refused him with regard to all she had been hearing, but her parents had told her to go ahead, at least, that would make them taste wealth too.

    "Yes, let my wife come in." Prince Dennis said and the door was opened unto Margaret to come in. "Here she is." He added.

    Harry raised his head and saw the Margaret that he had been looking for. "No!" He shouted as every one started prostrating for the new King and Queen.


****

    Doris and Craig hurtled their gazes at the enveloped list of the recent buyers of the perfume to their Kingdom. "Nicholas Smithson." Craig raised his head and looked at Doris. "Is this Nicholas?"

    "Yes." She replied.

    "You never told me he uses this same perfume." Craig said.

    "I thought that wasn't neccessary. At least you have seen him severally, you must have sniffed his scent. By the way, Nicholas, off all people."

    Craig looked away. "What of Matthias Victoria, do you know her?" He asked.

    "No." Doris shook her head.

    "They are just ten. I said it, this perfume isn't popular here. We just have to contact all the remaining nine of them, but, do you think Nicholas can do this?"

    "Nicholas? Firstly, the day The Unknown saved me from those men at Chief Sam's place, his voice was husky. By the way, the night The Unknown came to save me in the forest, Nicholas was at Prince Edward's place, performing for Prince's birthday."

    "Okay. Now I understand." He said as he took a second look at the list. "We can contact all these nine through their various house addresses." He said.

    "But, how did they know the address to their houses?"

    "When you order for something, won't you put your house address?"

    Doris chuckled.

****

    Engineer Ashley just ended the call between himself and his daughter. Beatrice never told him to clean the house, so, what exactly was he doing there? Engineer wondered as he took in a long breath.

    He picked his mobile phone and dialed a mobile number. "Where can we meet? I have a business for you." He said.

    "Alright, right away." He said and ended the call.

    He fickled his wrist and stared at the watch. "Alright, when you get to the office, just park and get down. I'll drive to where I want to visit myself." He told the driver

    "Yes sir." The driver replied.

****

    "My love." Beatrice grinned as she walked into the Prince's office.

    Prince Edward laughed. "Beatrice, what a surprise!"

    "That's who I am." She settled down.

    "You look so sexy." He teased her as he sat down too.

    "You look so handsome." She beamed and looked around. "I love this set-up of your office."

    "Ooh.. don't mind me." Prince laughed. "What would you like to take?"

    "Em.. wait, let's take this in a steady way." Beatrice chortled.

    "By the way, where's your handbag? Okay, you left them in the car?" He asked.

    "No. My phones and handbag are with my P.A, she's outside there, with the Secretary."

    "Won't you let her meet me?" He looked at her closely.

    "Okay." She smiled and walked to the door to call Vivian in.

    Vivian walked in and bowed on seeing the Prince. "Good morning, my Prince."

    Prince just kept looking at her. "Are you the Vivian..?"

    Vivian raised her head. "Yes. Hope there's no problem?"

    "Urgh... em.. welcome." He grinned.

    "And why are you looking at her this way?" Beatrice accused the Prince.

    "Urgh... was wondering where you got a beautiful P.A." He winked.

    "And what's the meaning of that?" Beatrice rolled her eyes and hissed.

    "I'm being honest with you. But, she's not as beautiful as my Beatrice." He did the needful quickly.

    Beatrice smiled and dropped her head down in shyness. Raising her head again, she saw Prince's eyes fixed on Vivian.

    "Prince!" She shouted.

****

    The diary.

    Prince Harry just kept looking at Margaret. It was the exact lady he saved! He jacked his head and looked at her again. "We are getting married in two weeks' time." Dennis spoke from his seat.

    "All is well, we are ready." One of the Chiefs spoke happily.

    Harry stood angrily and left the scene for his room. He jumped on his bed, rolling from an edge to another in anger as he remembered how he saved Margaret and killed the native Doctor because she got missing.

    He was so indignant and sprung up to his feet as he stood before the mirror in his room and clouted it angrily.


****

  Beatrice stood angrily and looked at Vivian with grimace. She hissed as she dashed out of the office and Vivian rushed after her. She was impatient because the Prince kept looking at Vivian. "Ma'am, wait." Vivian said as she almost got behind her.

    Beatrice halted and looked at her angrily. She walked closer and landed a slap on her left cheek. Vivian held on to her cheek and looked at her. She wasn't suppose to be in that condition if not for Nicholas. If she never lost contact with him, wouldn't she be a married woman too? Wouldn't she be working in a better place? She had thought as she raised her hand to slap her too but felt it wasn't right to do. She could control her anger.

She dropped her handbag and mobile phone on her car and walked out of the company. The Prince had gotten outside too and walked close to Beatrice. "Why do you have weird thoughts?"

"Save me that!" She stretched forth her right hand and picked up her things on the car. She walked into the car and honked for the gatekeeper to get the gate opened. Then, she drove out.

Prince sighed as she watched her leave. Just then, he entered into his car too and drove out.

****

"Engineer, what's happening?" Jerry asked Engineer Ashley as they both settled down in an cool eatery.

"Serious business, Jerry." He looked right and left. "I want you to execute someone." He said.

Jerry chuckled. "Is that what you couldn't tell me over the mobile phone? Who's it?" He asked him.

"Wait, you know this person called The Unknown, right?" He asked.

"Sure. Who doesn't know the unfortunate being that exposed Chief Sam? Engineer, I feel Chief will expose the secret."

"No. I went to the station skme days back and we spoke. He said he wouldn't do such a thing. He just need us to help him out before he would be sentenced to prison because the evidences against him are very strong."

Jerry smiled. "So, have you found The Unknown?"

"No. But I just employed a cook. I feel he was sent to spy. Who knows if he knows us all and wants me to be the second catch?"

Jerry laughed. "What makes you suspect the guy?"

"I caught him in my room searching. Anyways, just get him killed."

"Killed? I feel we should firstly torture him, then, if he doesn't listen to us within twenty-four hours, we gonna waste him."

"Ooh.. that's a nice idea. Get him, now!"

"Consider it done Engineer. My guys and I will storm your immediately I leave here."

"No problem, just keep me update about everything." He said.

"That's alright, Engineer."

****

Henry had given up on the fried rice. He felt it would get cold before the arrival of the ladies. So, he decided to take a nap. He had been dreaming of himself and Lizzy together, with smiles on his face as he slept on.

Suddenly, the door was broken and he woke up. A handkerchief was pressed on his nose for a while and he slept off.

EPISODE SIXTEEN

Henry's brain started working like internet search engine. He knew he would be done for, if the truth was leaked. He looked at Lizzy again and took his eyes off her. He looked again with a long stare. He knew her already, just trying to pose as if he hadn't seen her face before.

    "Who's Henry?" Beatrice asked Lizzy.

    "Why's he doing like this? Have you forgotten my face?" Lizzy moved closer to him.

    No doubt about it, God really blessed some people with retentive memories. No! He never believed Lizzy would still know him at all. He was on his way to studio that day he met her struggling with her vehicle that halted suddenly.

    He liked her at first sight. But, how would someone like Lizzy like him? He had thought as he motioned closer to her and greeted her. He was the one who helped her fix the car that day and even her punctured tyre. The only thing surprising to Lizzy was the fact that he refused the money offered to him.

    Lizzy was going through to defend a project that morning, so, she was very happy someone like Henry could help him. It was that day she enquired his name and mobile number, to his surprise.

    Henry told her his real name but couldn't help himself but to give her a non-existing mobile number. He didn't want any trouble, so, if he fell in love with her, trouble would start to loom. He left the scene that day without the intention of seeing her again, at least she appreciated him, not minding she was a rich type.

    "I'm Mike." Henry said boldy as he looked into Lizzy's eyes.

    "No... I'm Lizzy that you assisted that day, have you forgotten?"

    I just pray this lady won't get one into an absolute trouble now. Is it by force to be Henry this week? "Maybe another person."

    "You may be seeing another person entirely, Lizzy." Beatrice said.

    "Alright, if you guys say so. But, no! You and the Henry in question should be twin brothers."

    Thank God she has softened the pedal. "I have no twin brother." He grinned.

    "Alright Beatrice, what's up? What's Mike doing here?"

    He grinned again. Thank God Mike was mentioned by he already. But, it seemed she hadn't taken her eyes off him. Wait, does she love me? He wondered as he looked at her and bowed his head. If she does, that's when she'll remember me, even though I'm poor. But, do rich people fall in love with poor ones really? He kept brewing.

    "He's here to apply for the vacant post." Beatrice replied Lizzy.

    "Ooh..." Lizzy sat down. "You're welcome here Henry.. oh... Mike." She said quickly as she grinned.

    "Only God knows where you met this Henry." Beatrice chuckled.

    "He helped me fix my car that day I was rushing to defend our contract, if not for him, I don't know what would have happened. And, he gave me his mobile number but it never went through."

    "What! You collected the mobile number of that person? What's the name of the car he rode that day?" Beatrice asked.

    "He was on a motorcycle when he got down to assist me. He refused money likewise."

    "No! You recieved the mobile number of a nobody? I'm highly disappointed in you!"

    Lizzy shrugged. "It doesn't matter. I just like the fact that he could help me that day, that's all."

    "You have a big problem. Back to you, Mike. Do you think you can cook for us?"

    "Huh?" What kind of question is this? Are they eating manna from heaven?

****

    Doris hopped into Craig's car. She had been called earlier to ask if she would love him to help her to the office. That was all she wanted too, free ride. "How are you, Craig?" She asked as she pulled the seatbelt.

    "I'm good, Doris. Hope you're fine now."

    "I have been fit, thanks to you and my sister." She smiled.

    "All thanks to God, Officer Doris." He glimpsed at her and drove on.

    "Have you now called Mrs Priscilla this morning?" Doris asked Craig.

    "No. I want us to get to the office before getting her called." He replied.

    "That's nice too." She nodded.

****

    "You are dressed up already, off to the station?" Victoria asked Vivian as they both stepped into the living room.

    "You never cease to amaze me." She shook her head as she sat down and unbuckled her sandals.

    Victoria took in a long breath. "This isn't right, Vivian."

    "What isn't right? I don't have the patience to start discussing, I can't start racking my brain for new set of lies to cover up the ones on ground."

    Victoria sat down. "But, you'll be a very good source of help to get The Unknown."

    "But what is it with this guy called The Unknown? Part of my reasons is because I don't want them to arrest the person. His name has started spreading like wildfire just because he got Chief Sam's bad acts exposed, now he helped my son. Can't you see that this person in hiding has been helping this Kingdom? Why should he be arrested? The main reason why they need Anthony and I is to question us because they need to get The Unknown. The Unknown has been doing good, not bad!"

    "But, Vivian.. I'm going to my place of work too now "

    "About Anthony?" She looked away for a moment.

****

    "I can cook anything you'd love to eat." Henry told Beatrice.

    Beatrice smiled. "Alright, let's give him a try." She faced Lizzy.

    "Sure." Lizzy nodded.

    "But aren't you with any box or luggage?" Beatrice asked.

    "They are outside, ma'am." He replied.

    "Alright, no problem. Because of the test I want to give you, I'll come home with Lizzy to eat lunch." She informed.

    "Alright, what would you like to eat for lunch?"

    Lizzy and Beatrice looked at each other. "Fried rice would be alright." Lizzy said.

    "That's nice too."

    What? Do I know how to cook that?

    ****

    The diary.

    Dennis and Harry barged into the King's room and met the Queen on the floor, already weeping. The chiefs and the guards were downcast too. The king was dead already.

    Dennis broke into tears as he met the scene. He couldn't stop the flow of tears. Even though he was going to be the next King, he hated how his father died so early. "Father!" He screamed as he looked back and saw Harry just leaning against the wall. He wasn't even crying.

    He wasn't shocked. He had always called him a bastard before and that was what he was. Why would his father die and he wouldn't bat an eyelid? Dennis just moved closer to his mother and petted her. "Mum, we don't need all these." He said, even though he was weeping.

    The only thing running on Harry's mind was the fact that Dennis would soon be crowned the next King of the Kingdom. It outrightly meant that would become a King over him. He didn't hate his brother to the extent of killing him if not he would have devised a way to have killed him very long time back.

    Harry just walked out of the room. The Chiefs knew him too, he wasn't a normal human being at all. They weren't shocked, a bad child would always show how bad he is.

    "Over to you, Prince Dennis." One of the Chiefs said.

    "No longer a Prince, he's now a King." Another added.

    Dennis just hissed as he kept weeping. He would miss his father.


****

    "Don't worry, he can go with me to the office." Victoria told Vivian after she had thought of where Anthony would be.

    "Really? Hope he won't be a burden on you."

    "He's my son too. I reason with your listed reasons behind staying away from the station. But, hope you haven't forgotten that Frank knows this place well."

    "I know. If the man calls me, I'm going to tell him my son and I would come to the station by weekend. My schedule is tight."

    "Personal Assistant to Beatrice." Vicky wheedled her.

    "Urgh.." She chuckled. "Let me check on Anthony." She said as she dropped her handbag and walked to Anthony's room.

****

    Beatrice and Lizzy drove into the Company. The two cars parked and the two ladies walked side by side as they waved at the security men. "Do you think that guy will be able to do this thing very well?"

    "Who and what's he doing?"

    "Oh.. I mean the Mike in question, do you think he will be able to prepare good meals for us?"

    "At least he will prepare fried rice today, first impression lasts longer." Lizzy replied.

    Beatrice chortled. "That's true. I'll see you later." She waved as they parted.

    She waved at the Secretary and saw Vivian already on seat. "Wow! I love people that keep to time." She smiled as she waved at her.

    "Good morning." Vivian greeted her.

    "Come into my office." She said as she walked into her office. Vivian picked up her handbag and hurried after her too.

****

    Henry walked to the room shown to him earlier. He had been shown his room and been given rules and regulations to abide by, before Beatrice and Lizzy left the house. Thank God he was able to get himself out of the problem Lizzy was about to put him.

    If he hadn't insisted that he wasn't Henry, he never knew what could have happened after. He looked round the small room. It wasn't furnished at all. Though, he neve expected such. He was just a cook. The room had been covered with cobwebs which made him wonder if the former occupant of the room liked it so much. He really hated that.

    He had been cleaning up until Nick's call came in. He got his phone and grinned as he spoke with Nicholas. "Guy, it isn't easy here." He said.

    Nicholas on the other end was laughing too. "My cook, just don't use useless food to kill the man."

    Henry laughed. "The man has a daughter and the daughter has a friend. I was almost caught by Lizzy, Beatrice's friend."

    "Now break it down. I am not the cook. I don't know Lizzy, neither do I know Beatrice."

    "Beatrice is the daughter of Engineer Ashley while Lizzy is her friend." He replied him.
 
    "So, how did she almost get you? Your outfit?" He enquired.

    "Not at all, I have met her before." He started explaining to him.

    "Alright, now I get you. But thank God she didn't get you. Have you now prepared them a dish?"

    "I was told to prepare fried rice for lunch, I have been searching for the recipes." He chuckled.

    Nicholas laughed. "So bad of you. Anyways, it looks as if you're the only one at home, right?"

    "Sure. The gate keeper and I." He replied.

    "Search the rooms and know  which is Engineer Ashley. Then, search the place if anything can be found." He informed.

    "I'll get that done, now."

    They hung up.

****

    "So, this is just to tell you that whenever you want to address me, always remember to add respect to it." Beatrice addressed Vivian as she sat down.

    Vivian nodded.

    "I know you can talk, you actually don't wish to."

    She smiled. "I have responded."

    "Didn't I tell you to always add a sign of respect? Whenever you want to talk to me, always add ma to it!"

    "Alright ma'am. Done already." She said.

    "Good. I don't think I have much work to thrash this morning, I'd love to visit the Prince by 10am. Just inform me when it is 10am." She told her.

    "Done, ma'am."

****

    Craig and Doris stood before their boss. They got to the office just some minutes back and decided to visit him to feed him back, concerning The Unknown and Anthony.

    Craig had called Vivian and had confirmed that she wouldn't be available that day. Vivian had told him she would come and meet him on Saturday, for further investigations. "I heard all that happened yesterday. The Unknown again." The boss said.

    "Yes sir, he just came to drop that boy." Craig replied.

    "But what I have been thinking about is that don't you think this unknown is connected to this people?"

    Doris looked at him closely. "How, Sir?"

    "For him to have done that for the boy, who knows if he knows this Mrs Priscilla in question?"

    "But that woman called Mrs Priscilla never looked as if she knew this person. Even the small boy didn't have the look."

   
"Craig, why are you talking this way? Will they write in on their forehead? Have you contacted her?"

"Yes sir. She said she was unavailable and would try her best to be available on Saturday." He replied.

"Alright, no problem. Haven't they given you the list of those who order Forever Mine perfume?"

"It will be delivered by 9am today, sir."

"Alright." He replied.

****

Ramsey walked into Stella's office slowly, smiling as he approached her. "Good morning Surgeon." He said as he stood before her.

"Ramsey, only God knows what you want from me." Stella chuckled.

"Huh?" Ramsey sat down. "What I want from you?" He asked again.

"Sure. There hardly be a day without you coming into my office, hope there's no problem."

Ramsey chuckled. "That's what they call care. I'm just being caring."

"Ooh... I see that. So, how are you?"

"I was expecting you to wish me a happy birthday."

"Ooh... Doctor Ramsey!" She laughed as she out her hands together. "A wonderful birthday Ramsey."

Ramsey was happy. He felt as if no one has ever greeted him a happy birthday before. "Thanks Stella." He grinned, expressing his happiness.

"That's nothing. I should be apologizing for forgetting today's your birthday. Anyways, just tell me what you want as your birthday gift and I'm going to give you."

"Really? Are you sure you will give me?"

"Why won't I? Once I can reach it, I'll give you."

"Honestly you're the one I want as my birthday gift. Not only my a gift but an eternal gift. I want.. I want you to marry me." He said, dipping his hand into his pocket. It seemed he had a small package inside.

"And that should be done inside the hospital, right?" The voice of the male Doctor thundered behind them. He hated Stella before, so, hearing all they said would be the best to be used against her.

"Urh... I came to give her a file." Ramsey stood up quickly.

"A file? A file of a patient, right? Where's it?" He asked him.

"Em... it got burnt.. no.. I forgot it in my office."

"Alright, no problem. I have been saying it too! Doctor Stella have been causing trouble in this hospital for quite long. Both of you should see me in my office now." He said and walked out.

****

The ultimate search begun, according to Nicholas' wish. Henry's mind was at rest because no one was at home, so, he wouldn't be questioned if anything happened. He just found Engineer's room and just started searching the room.

He was fed up already when he couldn't find anything implicating inside the room. Looking back, he saw a small drawer he hadn't checked and motioned to it. Opening the drawer he saw a white book with the inscription of 'Confidential' on it.

Could that be what he needed? He asked himself as he stretched his hand to pick it up and the door flipped open. "What are you doing here?"

It was Engineer Ashley.

He began to wonder what he came back home for. By the way, he didn't hear any sound from the gate, there was no honk from any vehicle, was he seeing a ghost or what?

"I said what are you doing here?" His voice got huskier as he approached Henry.
