Chapter one hundred and thirteen

We started work this morning as soon as it clocked six. We noticed that they had been on the move since about two hours earlier. Luckily for me, the spies I sent were on the lookout from the beginning and I was so glad that I didn't make any mistake choosing them.
This was going to be one of the toughest part of the game, so I asked Alex to go home and wait there, till we get back to him. At first, he resisted, but I had to explain that this was the duty of the armed forces to play, except he was willing to join at that moment, which was Impossible.
He had no choice than to go back to his house, which was just the compound opposite the place we were staying. To balance everything, I sent him off with three of my men who came around, to keep him safe, incase anything were to happen.
Back to business, things were becoming tougher on the side of my men who were on the lookout. My instincts told me that those people taking Sonia hostage must be getting closer to where they would hand her over and that was the banger we were patiently waiting for.
An hour later, we noticed they had stopped moving. So, with the help of George, we got the name of the building they were using. Flantex construction company. Not disturbing George any longer, because he had to tail Sonia in order not to lose track of her.
I phoned one of my tech friend and asked him to help me look up the company, Flantex construction. I gave him a time limit and pleaded that he checked it immediately since it was very urgent.
Fortunately, he adhered to my request and few minutes after, he sent me a feedback with the name of it's owner. After some deeper researches, I realized that, the name was only a disguise, till I found the real owner of the place. A young billionaire.
He had no criminal records when I checked him up on my own, so I started to wonder why Sonia was taken to his construction company, if he actually has nothing to do with it.
The undercover spies asked for a go ahead so they could get access into the building in disguise. I didn't grant that request immediately as I needed them to be on the safer side before letting them go off that way. They were my eyes over there and if I lose it, I'll be helpless.
I told one of them to go in and monitor the place inside, while her colleague stayed outside. My spies were a lady and a young man, that was the best and easiest way to pose a disguise.
The lady, Loui, entered inside give us a head up on how that place actually looks like. Each place she walked, George took hold of the camera and used it to monitor that exact place from our side.
Coin mentioned that a party would be thrown there in the night and the owner of the place would be there, as the host, Imson Janz, a Nigerian-Indian guy.
His mother was Indian, while his father was Nigerian. His father who was a big millionaire had married his mother some years ago. Imson Janz was sent to Nigeria after college, to take over his father's companies and he has been doing well and better than his father, according to records.
So, tonight, Imson Janz would be holding a ball or party in a hall in the construction company.
Why tonight? I wondered. Sonia was been transferred there today, so definitely, something was going to happen this night, something fishy was going on.
I asked my guys to retreat and prepare for the ball, because that is where the main drama would be.

After talking with Eddy this morning I noticed that he was back with his wife, from the way he sounded and I was really glad that they were back again and I was happy for them. I wished I could also tell my own story of how I will get back with my wife. I decided to stay in the room and cry my heart out or sleep or do anything that crosses mind.
Whenever my phone buzzes, my heart jump as I was expecting a call from the detective to give me a good or bad news, or both.
I wanted the first one though, just the good news only. I've been getting bad news in a while now and I am really fed up with it.
My stomach grumbled and that was when it occured to me that I didn't take breakfast today. It was past 12 already.
My phone rang and it picked it up. The moment I saw Jide as the caller ID, my heart skipped. I still summoned courage to answer the call.
"Hello." I said, softly.
"Good afternoon sir. Please, there is a new development here, so I thought to inform you about it."
"Okay, I'm all ears. What is it? I asked inquisitively.
"I asked my colleagues to back down for the meantime. There will be a party tonight and that's the best time to comb the place secretly as there would be a lot of people, so it will be undetected." He explained.
"Sir, I only want my family back and in a nice piece and state."
"I cannot assure you that, but I promise we would do our best to get the best." He answered.
I agreed with whatever he said, not like I had a choice to make though. We talked briefly and he ended the call afterwards.
I stomach grumbled again, so I knew it was time to get something to eat. Hold on, I just noticed that my mother-in-law has been missing all these while.
I mean, when I got home yesterday, she wasn't home and I haven't seen her since then. Perhaps the detective asked her to go and find a safe place to stay since she is an old woman.
I waved it off for a while, went to the kitchen and prepared noodles for myself. Atleast, that would give me strength for a while before I get hungry again.
I went to my mother-in-law's room to satisfy my doubts and be sure that she was okay. I knocked twice on the door and she came and opened it.
She looked very surprised to see me and looked a bit disappointed not to see the other, I mean her daughter.
"Good afternoon ma'am." I greeted, then added. "Hope you are okay?
"Yes, I am. Thank you. For a moment I thought it was Sonia at my door. Where is she? She asked.
"Where is she? I asked. Sonia? Sonia has been taken. By those guys who took they kids.
She looked at me with a frown, I guess she thought I was joking or something. Why would I do that.
"What do you mean by taken? She asked again.
"Mother, they killed the driver, the killed Frank and said they would kill another if Sonia doesn't follow their instructions. So, he was taken yesterday actually."
"Thanks for the information, I will contact my police friend now. I hope it works."
"Yeah, I hope so too." I answered and left the room. I remembered that this was her daughter, so she would feel bad about it. I thought of going back to cheer her up.
I went back to the room. I was about knocking when I heard her talking with someone over the phone. I brought my ears close to listen and I was baffled at what I heard.
Quickly, I sent Jide a text message explaining what I had just heard and asked him to check it up, to be on the safer side.
I went to my room thinking deeply about what I just heard. Sonia's mom was scolding someone over the phone for taking her daughter which was not part of their deal.
She had the guts to stay my house and to organize the kidnap? I wondered. Well, I wasn't so sure so I felt it would be nice not to talk about it, till there is a proof to back up claims.
At about 4 PM in the evening, Eddy called me again. I guessed he wanted to know about Sonia and how it was going.
"Hey man, what's up?
"Alex, I'm not myself. I'm just going insane right now." He answered sniffling.
"What's wrong? Eddy, what is going on? What happened? I asked, alarmed.
"It's Jess. It's Jess." He said crying loudly.
Damn, what has happened. Did she give him divorce papers or what. I wondered.
"Eddy, calm down, it's okay. Calm down please, it'll be fine."
"I don't think it will ever be fine. Alex, it would never remain the same."
"Tell me what's wrong? I asked, getting tired of him acting up.
"Jess is Dead!
** **
At exactly 6:30 PM, my team mates got ready to act. I already called a backup and with the help of Alex, we were able to get hold of two helicopters which transported some of my backup team to the place, which would also bring them back as well as the survivors.
The party was to start by 7 PM so, we got ready. The ladies dressed in red gowns and the guys in black suit, with their guns under the suit.
The party started and from this side, we were watching what was going on and communicating with the other on the other side.
Earlier, we got the picture of the host, Imson Janz and stored it on our search list, with some of his close associates that we found. It would help us monitor their every move, till we get what we are looking for.
An hour into the party, it was now rowdy and a lot of people dancing and drinking and making love to eachother.
George called my attention to Imson, as he started leaving his seat where he was welcome specially. Loui already took note of that and started following him from afar.
She mentioned that there was an underground and that was where he headed to, with two of his associates.
She hid and entered in to the place and she signaled us that it was the place where the victims were chained and kept for their own purpose.
As soon as Imson got there and started talking, we recorded every single this he spoke.
When Loui noticed that Mr.Imson was about releasing some of his prisoners, she caused commotion in the party itself.
Soon as the commotion was everywhere and a lot of people were running to find their stance. She called in the guys were at the entrance.
They came in and started looking for Mrs. Sonia who was the mean reason why they were there.
Loui was able to find her and Nancy but not the kids, so they kept searching.
Imson Janz, realising that it wasn't his usual meeting, was about to run when they stepped in arrested him for all of the things that were caught in his possession, even drugs.
In the meantime, The twins were found in a more secluded place and were carried out of the place to get imminent treatments.
It wasn't a cool battle as some of his guys opened fire in the public and my guys had to gun them down. We lost one person in the process, may his soul rest in peace.
Loui and her colleagues returned Sonia home successfully from that place, with two of her kids, the twins and also with Nancy.
This was my first mission out of my environment and I must confess that it was a very good job.
Congratulated or not, I'll always congratulate myself for a job well done!

Sonia's Mom confessed her being part of the kidnap for a reason, but was granted bail. She left them and promised never to come back.
Imson Janz was taken to prison and left there for sometime, till he was able to contact his own laywer. So that meant that he would be allowed to be heard in court and that was the next place we'd gather!
