Stephanie cleared the dishes after Dave finished eating. She came back to join Dolly on the couch they were on before his arrival.
"Can you now speak up after eating to your satisfaction?" Dolly voiced out.
"I have something to do before that." He stood up and walked to Stephanie's front. He held her hands and kissed them one after the other.
"What are you doing?" Stephanie asked, trying to pull her hands from his grasp but Dave didn't bulge.
"Thanks for the meal, sweetheart." He said in the most romantic voice ever.
"You're welcome." Stephanie managed to reply.
Dave stood up and returned to his seat, leaving Dolly stupified. She wasn't expecting that from him. She immediately regained her composure however.
"Would you like to go to sleep now mum?" Dolly asked her mum.
"No. I want to be part of this." Stephanie replied firmly, as if daring Dolly to speak otherwise.
"Alright."
Turning to face Dave, "What is the very vital information? She frained.
"Louis told me about his plan, everything and we're working according to that. This time, I want us to catch him and make him face the law." He looked at their faces before going on.
"I'm to execute you in a month, and kidnap another guy for him. He's currently preparing weapons he'll use in case the police shows up but I'll update you as soon as I get more information about this." He landed.
"And why are you telling me all these?" Dolly enquired.
"I can't stop him alone. I need your help in putting a hold on his craziness."
"Why should I help you?"
"Because not helping me can put your lives at risk. He has many people working for him and he chose me to do this. If I go after him alone and I fail, he won't hesitate to execute you, using other people."
Dolly sighed and thought about his words for a little while.
"Okay. Let's do this." She concluded.
"When are we striking?" She inquired.
Dave rubbed his chin and then spoke up. "In a month. When it's time to kidnap you, I'll let you know."
Dolly walked Dave to the door when he was leaving. As she was about to close the door, he held her hand and she faced him.
"I'm a friend, not a foe. I'm here to help you." He said.
Dolly nodded positively and smiled, closing the door on him.

Inside Louis' safehouse, echoes of noises were heard. Machines moving heavy equipments were making their own noise as well.
Murmurings could be heard among the almost five hundred men working there, the equipments they were working on kept making it's noise as well.
Louis moved around, making sure everyone is doing their work well. It will be a month in two weeks and he had to be as prepared as possible.
"Is that bulletproof thick enough?" He asked one of the workers, feeling the bulletproof with his fingers.
"Very much Sir." The latter replied.
He continued checking the other products they were making until he sighted an unfamiliar face. He brought out his gun and pointed it to him.
His men may be much but he knows them all by their faces so when he sees an intruder, he can easily identify him.
"Who are you?" He enquired, placing the gun to the side of his head.
"I'm....I'm sorry sir." The boy stammered. "I've been looking for a job and when my brother introduced me here, I quickly jumped into it."
"Who's your brother?" Louis' deep voice came again.
The boy pointed to another worker.
"Felix", Louis faced the other worker.
"Is he really your brother?"
"Yes sir." He bowed down. "I'm sorry for not telling you. We were so busy I forgot to tell you I brought my brother."
Louis would've punished both brothers if not for Felix. Felix had been working with him since the very beginning. He's more of a family member than a mere worker to him so he let it slide.
"What does he do?" Louis questioned.
"He's a high school janitor." Felix replied.
"If I find out he's anything close to being suspicious, I'll kill both of you." Louis said, walking away.
Felix merely paid attention to that as he continued working. He knows that his boss threatens death a lot but if you're clean, he's not gonna kill.
Louis looked around and seeing that they were working well, walked to his private room. He can tolerate anything but betrayal. He had been betrayed by the two people he called friends and so if any of his workers tries to do the same, he won't hesitate to kill them.
Louis, Dave and John were best friends. They did everything together while growing up and when they were fully grown, they decided to build a company and name it by their names.
When it was time to build the company, Dave and John built there's, leaving him to nothing. After few years, he finally built his, after asking for help from them and their refusal.
He caused enmity between father and daughter and lured her into killing Dave. He was the one who planned Dave's death and therefore knows how to save him.
He saved Dave and wiped off his memory. He converted Dave's company to his and also turned him against his family. Dave had a happy home, John as well but not him.
Now Dave has no family, John is dead, along with his wife and second daughter. They are all the same now, without a family.
He's going to make sure Dave wipes his whole family by himself and then he'll kill Dave but first, Dave has to be included in the plan.
He's going to get the company's ownership, kill John's remaining daughter, Ann, and get both companies for himself.
He's going to be envied among many. He's going to have the riches, fame and love his friends had. That's his great plan.
