Chapter 9 - One hell of a company

As Chief walked into the room I could barely realize it, I couldn't even move

I was bleeding so badly that I knew I'd die if it continues

When you're done bring him upstairs to my office. Chief said dragged the cigarette (a puff of smoke inhaled from a lit cigarette)

Yes Chief. One of the workers responded

****************************************

(Chief clears his throat to draw James' attention)

At what time did you realize the file was missing? Chief asked

S-sir? He stammers

Se aditi ni?! Chief raged with anger

It was on my table, I left it here and then we closed up for the weekend

So someone must have taken it during that period. Chief said as he stroke his chin

I'm going to spare you but I give you one week... Mase gbiyanju lati sise, cause I'll catch you. He said as he left

****************************************

As soon as I came out of the office all I could think about was Sophie, how could she do this to me

I felt like struggling her to death

I couldn't even focus, then I went straight to her office and as soon as she saw me she jerked

Then I held her pressing her against the wall

James, what's your problem? She said

How could you do this to me? James asked almost in tears

I'm sorry but the fear I have for Chief is greater than the love I feel for you. She said as he tightened his grip

James, be careful.. there's cameras everywhere, if anything happens to me they'd hold you responsible

Of course, there are cameras everywhere

The answer is right in front of me. He thought as he let go of her and left

****************************************

I can't believe the office is so calm, as if they don't even notice the file is gone. Eni thought (exhales in whistle)

Then suddenly I heard voices coming from James' office, it sounded like Chief but I thought he didn't come to the office today

I couldn't help but eavesdrop

James POV: Sir, I think I know who the person is, I-I just need you to give me access to the camera footages. He said

(Chuckles) so you want to know everything about this company? Chief said

No sir, it's not like that.. I just need to have a concrete evidence of who this person is. He said

Hmmm.. I'm a very busy person, come to me tomorrow then we can check together, I can't take any risk. He said and chuckled softly

What are you doing here? Sophie tapped him but he didn't notice her coming as he was so engrossed in their conversation

Oh nothing, I just wanted to give this to Mr James but it seems he's busy. Eni said as he tried to leave

Wait.. don't worry I'll give it to him. She said as she collected it from him

Thank you. He said as he left, I couldn't even imagine the amount of trouble I'd be in if they saw the footage
