When Jake and William left Charlie’s office, they suspected that the reason she was so grumpy was most likely boy problems and also their disappointing trip to that strange club. Maybe her date with that guy she kept hanging out with didn’t go well they mused. While Jake was preparing for his ride down with William, he knew Charlie would show up because she didn’t let her personal life’s mess with her work.She was most likely to let her work mess with her personal life. When it was time to go pay a visit to Lulu, they were walking towards the car when Charlie appeared from the entrance to their office. Jake shook his head when he heard William mutter under his breath “Yes! I’m off the hook.”“If you hated being out in public so much, you shouldn’t have taken this job.”Jake replied.“I needed money to feed my wife and kids.”William replied.“Will, you hadn’t even met your wife when you took this job and you do not have any kids.” Jake said.William faked a gasp and widened his

Johnny Maddox was not happy at all and everyone around him knew it.It seemed like the past few days things just kept getting out of hand and spinning out of his control.That was not good.Everything had to be in his control because he was in charge, always in charge. Bryan had told him that things at the stash went a bit off. A client’s order had been handled carelessly and he was not happy about it. The people in charge of client’s delivery for some reason thought that they had properly handled the order and delivered it to the right person. Bryan had to remedy the situation and deliver another order this time personally. That resulted in a loss. Johnny did not like losses especially from incompetent folks. Bryan seemed to think that they had been compromised and someone either came snooping or stealing. As for the people in charge of handling his client’s orders, he decided to let them off with a warning. “What did you say?” Bryan asked in disbelief. It was unheard for th

As Jake sat on the other side of the room , opposite Jeremy he couldn’t stop thinking that there was something odd about him although he couldn’t quite place his finger on it. He and Charlie were engaged in a conversation and his responses seemed calculated like he put a lot of thought into every word that he said which was only normal when talking to the feds. Judging from his line of work, he must have had some experience with this sort of thing. He hadn’t even mentioned that Diane used to work with them or what he did for work even though Charlie tried to trap him into giving those details.Smart guy!They had waited for about thirty minutes before Joel Peters walked into the room. The resemblance was uncanny and it looked like they made deliberate efforts to look so alike it was almost scary. They had the same hair cut and their beards shaved in the same neat fashion. Even their outfits today was identical which Charlie thought was unnecessary. They were in their late twen

Although they hadn't figured out who their main suspect was, Charlie still felt they were on the right track. She and Jake already had a few theories as to what might have happened to Diane, they still needed to have that talk with her sister to put everything into perspective. So far, they knew that Diane was a wild one and might have even gotten herself in more dangerous deals than Joel might have even imagined or maybe Joel Peters was lying and had signed her up for something more dangerous than she or even him had anticipated and poor Diane had taken the fall for it. Diane’s death did not seem like something that happened on accident, it was more of a pre planned and well thought of plan. The poor girl had been carved our and stuffed with drugs like she was a turkey on Thanksgiving. I hate Thanksgiving! Charlie thought as she felt her stomach turn when the got flashes of the gruesome images she had seen. They obviously had been using her corpse to transport illegal drugs in

Johnny Maddox sat on his office chair, brows furrowed and he appeared to be deep in thought. His gloved hands reached over and touched his silver cross necklace. He had a meeting scheduled for twelve thirty later today but for the first time ever, his prospective meeting wasn't the subject of his thoughts. That girl, he needed to see her again but wasn't quite sure why. Maybe he knew he though but wasn't quite ready to accept that as the truth, it sucked.“She is out of my life, I should be glad but why doesn't it feel right?” he said out loud. That girl was more of a thorn in his flesh that seemed like she belonged there and now that the thorn was gone, his comfort was becoming a little more uncomfortable. His phone buzzed and at first, he was a little embarrassed by how eager he was to go read the text, then he was disappointed when he saw who the text was from.Pink-topped Sara!Are we still down to hang today? Was the text she had sent.She had gotten tired of calling him wh
