“Aaron, take me to the headquarters.” He ordered, wanting to get updated on their current situation. Since he left for their trip and arrived, he only heard a few details of what had transpired.

He looked at the busy street, but his mind was going through several things, all at once. He kept thinking of their case against Nick, which was still ongoing.

Then, there was the unknown leader of the gang. He seemed to be going after them for no apparent reason. If he did, then he was clueless as to why.

“Ok. Sir.” His new detail answered him while keeping his eye on the road.

At the moment, Tim was busy with the investigation, so he had to settle with his next best man to protect him. Ben was already assigned to Dani.

“Informed me if we are near.” He instructed his security as he closed his eyes in the meantime.

.....

He was not planning to nap, but he wanted to shut the world around him, even for just a few minutes. However, his thought had a mind of its own as it continued to bother him.

At that moment, his father’s words returned to him. It reminded him of their last conversation. Honestly, he was confused. Because if he did not want the job, he should have easily said no to it. Why was he still considering the position?

“Sir, we are two minutes away from the building.” His driver said, only glancing quickly in the rearview mirror to make eye contact with him.

“Thanks,” Alex replied, straightening himself in the backseat and slightly running his fingers through his hair.

He made a mental note to have a hairstylist fix his hair. He did not realize that it had gone longer than he would like. However, it did have its perks, remembering how Dani liked entangling her fingers through its long strands.

As soon as they were in his designated spot, he immediately made his way inside the building. He went through the secured elevator, which would bring him directly to his office.

“Sir, welcome back.” One of the new members of the team greeted him once the door opened.

Tim never stopped recruiting men who had enough of the military service but would still want to serve their fellowmen. Therefore, this company was not solely for his benefit and protection.

“I heard that you are training well. How is your arm?” Alex asked the man who had his left arm amputated during his last tour.

The army had to let go of him and send him home. But Tim taught him a new meaning in life when he recruited him for this new job. Turned out he was great at computers. He had been a great asset to his team since he joined them.

“It had healed completely. I am getting used to this prosthetic arm.” The young boy said, showing off his new arm by moving it as if it was real. “Thank you, Sir. For all of this.”

It was the latest technology that he could find. Although the movements of the fingers were still very stiff, it was far better than not having an arm at all.

The young man almost thought that his life was over when he lost his arm and was sent home a damaged man. But when he learned about this, he immediately grabbed it, hoping to get a second chance.

“I am glad that things are doing well for you,” Alex said before Tim showed up and greeted him.

They quickly moved to his office, leaving the other man to get back to his work. But he was glad that men liked him were given another opportunity to be part of the productive member of society. And not just another drunken loser, feeling sorry for himself, who had no direction in life.

“How is everything around here?” Alex questioned, sitting on his chair while waiting for Tim to take his place.

Tim also ran a legitimate security team that handled several private security for the high society, politicians, and the likes. He used what he earned from this place to employ his brothers in arms and help some of his fallen brothers in the military.

“You know many things happened around here,” Tim playfully said as he took his seat nearest to his side.

He still preferred running around the world with guns blazing rather than tied in his chair doing paper works. However, he had to check the business once in a while.

He placed the folders in front of his boss, giving him the details of his report. After seeing this, he would be locking it up in the vault where no one would have access to them except the two of them.

“Well, we can go through it one by one, or you can just spare me the details and go straight to the most relevant ones.” Alex knew that not all that happened in his team was legit or legal.

But Tim believed that some things had to be done, and somebody had to do something about it. That had always been his motto in life.

He quickly made a quick scan of the documents. It consisted of work orders from their usual clients. But as he reached the bottom of the file, he noticed several red-tagged folders.

He knew that it was the files that he was looking for. He set aside the other files and started skimming the first file. Then, realized that it was no ordinary client.

“I thought so,” Tim commented when he saw his reaction to the documents. “I knew you would be interested in that file.”

The company also provided assistance to the government by securing some private entities from threats through the witness protection program as a private contractor.

One of his clients recently was no other than Samson. He learned that the company presently had full access to his files, records, and safehouse where the witness was hidden.

“It is certainly interesting,” Alex responded, checking the rest of the contents inserted in the folder.

There was a particular picture that caught his attention. But upon checking the visitor’s list, everything seemed to have checked out. But still, he planned to take an extraordinary interest in this client.

“How come we landed on this job?” Alex questioned his team leader, who might have something to do with this.

He was not expecting this because of the conflict of interest. But the government might have overlooked the situation, or a system failure failed to associate his company with the case.

“I took the liberty of pulling some favors inside,” Tim informed him. “I could not let anything slip out of my hands with this one.”

He had to guarantee that nothing would happen to their witness. Lately, he had heard rumors of someone making a deal for a hit. With his men in place, the likelihood of that happening was slim. He would take every precaution to keep Samson alive.

But still, he could not be too sure of the agents working side by side with them in this case. One of them might be working for the other side. Still, he was keeping an eye on all of them.

“I think you have this one covered.” Alex declared, going through the following marked folder.

Anyway, Tim was running the show in this company, so technically, he did not own this business but was just a silent partner.
