Chapter 48
The host of the event, a scrawny looking man with a blond hair went up to the stage.
He took the microphone and said .” welcome ladies and gentlemen to this wonderful event called. “Donations for the prime minister’s family”.
“As we all know that as citizens of this beloved country, we should care for the family of our late prime minister who are left alone in this cruel world” the host said.
“Now we will hear from the family members and then the donations will commence, remember that this family has no one to look upon except us the citizens” he finished and left the stage.
“This event is so useless and time wasting, didn’t the prime minister left assets for them or investment?” Levi said.
“Shh or the ambassador will hear you and sack you” Edward said.
“Fool, as if we are really working for him”Levi muttered.
They were standing behind the ambassador’s seat, where other important personnel’s were seated. The wife of the prime minister came up the stage dressed in an all-black outfit and took the microphone.
She talked for one hour about being helpless, how her husband had led the country to it’s position now and how she wants the citizens of Australia to help her and her children.
“Did the Queen of England came to this stupid event?” Levi asked Edward.
“No she sent a representative” Edward replied.
“Good for her, she can’t come and waste here” Levi said.
The three children of the prime minister also came and gave their own “begging speech” and went back to their seats.
“If it weren’t for this mission, I would never come to a stupid event like this even if I was held at gunpoint” Levi said.
“I feel like shooting them all” Edward said.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
The host then came back to the stage, “ok everyone why don’t we take a little refreshments before we continue” he said.
“Waiters, please serve the guest what they want” he added.
The waiters started serving the drinks and food to the guests.
“Be vigilant and make no mistakes” Edward mouthed at Robert, Richard and Raymond when they looked at him.
They all nodded and continued serving the guests.
“How many minutes do you think it will take this politicians buffoon to finish eating?” Levi asked.
“Maybe thirty minutes or less” Edward replied.
But Edward was so wrong it took them exactly one hour and thirty minutes to stop eating, during that period Edward had prevented Levi five good time from bringing out his gun and shooting someone.
When the host saw that everybody has stopped eating, he called his assistant who was a lady to carry on with the next program.
The lady dressed in tight and short dress came to the stage and said, “hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Sarah Jefferson and I will be leading this program”.
“You are free to donate any amount you like but we sincerely urge you to donate a bigger amount” she added flashing her fake white teeth.
“Do you accept cash or transfer?” One of the guest asked.
“Yes we accept, even if it is not money but a gift of great value you can also donate it” she replied.
“Now let the donations begin” she said and the guest started donating, some brought briefcase full of money while the other guests were doing transfers.
When every of the guest had all donated, the lady then went back to the stage.
“Thank you so much for your kindness and compassion towards our late prime minister’s family, may God bless all. I will proceed by calling out the names of people that donated and the amount they donated” she said.
She went to the host and collected a folder from him.
“Ehm the first person is Bar. Chris Scott, he donated a sum of five mill…”, the lights suddenly went off and everywhere was filled with darkness.
“Let’s go” Edward said to Levi.
They both made their ways through the dark and went towards the control room.
“What is happening Lavel?” Edward asked through the intercom.
“A foreign body has arrived, I am at the streets where our car is parked, you need to leave the building now the others have left” he replied.
“Who could be that foreign body?” Levi asked.
“We will know later, let’s get out of this building first” Edward said.
They went to the bathroom where they first changed and got out of the building through the window, the museum was not an upstair so I was easy for them.
“Worst mission ever” Levi muttered when they were outside the building. They climbed the building’s fence and ran to where their car was parked and got in.
“Do you know the foreign body that arrived?” Edward asked Lavel.
“No” he replied.
“Have you informed the others to leave the building?” Levi asked.
“Yes, Calvin gave them another assignment and they have left to do it” Lavel replied.
Edward took out his phone and dialed Calvin’s number.
“What is happening Boss?” Edward asked immediately the call was connected.
“Don’t worry I have everything in control, just standby and wait for my orders” Calvin replied.
“Yes Boss” Edward replied and disconnected the call.
“What did he say?” Levi asked.
“He said that we should standby and wait for his order” Edward replied.
“I have a feeling that this mission will be a well played game” Levi said.
“I am sure that it will be, any mission that Calvin is operating on, it’s plan B is always ruthless” Edward replied.
Meanwhile back at the dark museum, a gunshot was heard and the people scampered for their safeties in the darkness.
The light then came back revealing a man on the stage dressed in an all black outfit with a black mask on his face.
He was holding the struggling assistant host in his left hand and an AK-47 in his right hand.
“Someone is going to die today” he said smiling devilishly.
He shot his gun in the air and the guests ran towards the door, but they stopped as men similarly dressed as the man on the stage emerge from their hiding place carrying guns.
“Distinguished ladies and gentlemen, come back to your seats, starting from now you all are now my hostages” the man on the stage said.
