Chapter 8 Spy

  • Earlier When Angel got into the floor that served as an office of the fraudsters she walked past an old woman pushing a large rolling contraption filled with mops, brooms and various cleaning supplies .
  • She stopped to talk to the old woman , observing her concluding she must be her mother's age mate. She called out to her with courtesy.
  • ". Good day ma' am, please how do I get to the manager's office ", she asked smiling.
  • looking up from what she is pushing, saw a beautiful lady asking for directions with smiles , she didn't hesitate to answer her.
  • ". Good day dear , bless you my child , his office is around the corner and the first door you will see is him.
  • " ok , thanks ma'am,"she replied sweetly
  • And continued on her quest along the corridor, around the corner after a few steps she came across a door with the inscription " Manager office " .
  • She pushed the door gently after knocking twice when she heard a brief come in. Angel walked into the spacious office that consists of only a bookshelf with a few books in it, a table and a waste bin . Looking around the office one can easily tell that the office was newly occupied. After accessing the room, her gaze landed on the man sitting on the chair facing her . she smiled sweetly and sat down on the chair facing him.
  • ". Hi, my name is Angel. Nice to meet you " she said, still smiling but the man opposite was still looking at her with a blank face. Angel thought he might have had a hunch she's a spy but the man's next movement surprised her.
  • ". Nice to meet you too , am Tom ", he said, stretching out his hands for a handshake for Angel to take with a small smile.
  • " So how can I help you? " he continued after the handshake, still not showing any emotions.
  • "" I heard your firm helps people in saving money and acquiring properties right " she inquired for the man to nod
  • " I am an upcoming actress and my house is a two hour drive to my place of work, so I need a house in the city closer to the agency. " she said while clicking her neatly manicured , polished nails on his desk, still looking at him . He glanced from her face to her beautiful brown eyes , her nose then to her delicate lips that were moving a while ago , he figured she might be new to the city and decided to rob her dry and also having a taste of her . He imagined banging her on his desk and licked his lips without knowing.
  • Angel looked at the man licking his lips and looking lustfully at her, she smiled inwardly knowing what's through his mind and she will beat him at his own game .
  • Still smiling to himself he shoved a magazine that contained beautiful houses to her forgetting to remove the evidence of the person he defrauded earlier from the magazine . Angel took it from him and glanced through, after flipping about three pages she came across a credit card and other papers of properties belonging to an individual named " Bright Todd " she presumed it was another person they defrauded .
  • Seeing her stop he glanced at the magazine and what he saw made him widen his eyes in horror , and he acted swiftly, took it and shoved it inside the bin beside him raising up his head he caught Angel's gaze and chuckled half-heartedly .
  • " You can continue , those are not important , they are papers of a man we acquired property from " he said for Angel to nod.
  • Seeing her still checking out the houses in the magazine he breathed a sigh of relief . Angel deliberated in her mind on how to knock the man out and get hold of the information he trashed continued pretending in checking the houses in the magazine. The heavy atmosphere was interrupted by a light knock on the door.
  • When she heard him say come in she raised her head to catch sight of the intruder when she saw the old woman she presumed was a cleaner came into the room and took the trash and walked away still smiling at her.
  • Damn ! she hissed five minutes later. She needs to get hold of the information before it's been intercepted or the old woman will dump the bin with the information into the dumpster.
  • Hearing her hiss he raised his head to inquire about the issue catching his gaze she only smiled waving it away with the excuse that she had an appointment by 5pm but it's 2 minutes past 5pm
  • Standing up she promised to come by some other time for the inspection of the houses. she walked out of the elevator with hurried steps looking here and there with hope of seeing the Old cleaner.
  • But was disappointed, when she didn't catch any sign of her , she brushed her fingers through her hair frustratedly and turned to leave when two pair of hands grabbed her. Angel looked down to see a petite figure claiming she's her boss. Looking at the two men who were opposite them , she couldn't help but curse inwardly .
  • "Can today be any better! " she hissed.
