CHAPTER 75: MEETING A DANGEROUS MAN
Victoria gave her hand to the woman and I was waiting for the reaction I got earlier but my expression didn’t change a bit and I rolled my eyes at how the woman was all talk.
She was probably bluffing and not real, maybe I just wasted my time in coming here
“A man is going to come into your life soon, don’t chase him away, you are going to be each other’s light and also help each other heal, “the woman says and Olivia gasped in shock.
“She is good”Olivia whispered and I wondered if she was really good because her eyes had changed earlier.
“Then I think it’s my turn can you please look if I can find a man that can love me and if that’s is too much just a handsome hunk to sleep with, “Olivia says pushing Victoria away and I just shake my head at her silliness but immediately the woman hands touch Olivia her eyes changes to white again and this time the room became cold and my fingers curled up in fear.
“What’s going on?” Olivia asked terrified, moving away from the possessed-looking woman. We can see the woman struggling not to say anything and her daughter quickly rushed in, maybe noticing the situation from outside.
“Mother mother,” the lady that I later knew as Penelope, called , shaking the woman and I stepped back in fear.
The woman started getting settled back after some time and the room temperature went back to normal.
I sighed in relief but still not relief because I did not know what the woman was going to be after.
“You are going to meet a dangerous man,” she says looking at Olivia but she immediately turns to me and I get surprised.
“Is that vision about me? “I asked and the woman nodded avoiding my eyes. I know she is keeping something away from us but I didn’t ask because, in my earlier mood, I am even more troubled now.
“When?”I asked, sitting upright and my facial expression changed…..
We made our way back outside after handing Penelope some cash which she refused but I insisted. After we got into the car Victoria ignited the car and our car zoomed off.
“What in the world is the distinguished wife of Bradley Hale doing in a place like this”Daniel asked looking at the retreating back of the car that just zoomed off.
“Should I go and ask?”Miles asked his boss.
“Not yet we should first take care of our business but Mrs. Hale is sure interesting,” Daniel says looking at the old complex Georgina just came out of.
Looks like everything about the Hales is interesting, Daniel thought.
*******************************
Inside Victoria’s car which is taking the three girls back home, everyone could be seen battling with their thoughts but Olivia later breaks the silence.
“That woman saw something about me that she isn’t saying right?” the ever-cheerful Olivia asked with a solemn voice and Georgina sigh heavily.
I sighed knowing my friends might be worried but I am more because the woman seems to be real and that’s the second time age would see something about her. The first one is someone dying and the second one she does not even have the heart to tell her.

“Why are you guys taking her words seriously for all we know she might be fake, “Victoria says trying to soothe Olivia’s mood. Victoria was really not a believer of things like that so I am quite sure she just think. thr woman was bluffing.
“She says you are going to meet a man and you already did, of course, she is damn real!” Olivia lamented slamming the car dashboard.
“What man?”I asked, confused because I am very sure that Victoria is single.
“Douglas” Olivia answered and I saw Victoria facepalm herself but I wasn’t in the mood to question them.
“At least you don’t know what’s going to happen to you which is good because you can sleep worry-free but I don’t think I can ever sleep peacefully again after that revelation, “I say leaning my head against the car window and I thought back about all that woman says and I know it’s going to be a long night for me tonight and Bradley is not even around to embrace me.
******************************
In the middle of nowhere inside the woods, gunshots could be heard and grunting sounds from pain could be heard from different men and you could sense that the men were losing out.
The blasting sounds from the bomb could be heard and there were thick flames everywhere.
“Eagle what’s the situation over there”a man in military clothes could be seen shouting into the radio.
“We are in a deadlock sir and the enemy keeps catching up on us, “the man says a sound of a bomb exploding could be heard.
“When is the backup going to get here?”The man yelled but the arrival of several men rushing into the field shocked them. The men quickly formed a defensive font readying to attack the unknown men but when he saw the face of one of the men he was surprised.
“General Hale” he called not believing it.
“You have grown a lot, General Randy” Bradley called with his thick voice but the sound of the explosion could be heard behind and everyone quickly took their stand…
