RED HILL FACTORY

Whispering to himself, "Oh Lord, my heart grieves just to be with her, please help her to feel better and I should visit her during the day.

With the constant ringing of his phone, Brent reached for his phone and heard Miss John saying in a panicking tone of voice, "Sir, there were some problems at the Red Hill factory during the night and you need to attend to the matter immediately."

  Lystra thought he would panic  but the silence at the other end of the line confused her, "Sir, did you hear what I said?"

Giving him the news again Lystra couldn't believe how calm he was, wondering if he heard all she had said, about to repeat it for the third time he said,  "I heard you, Miss John."

When he spoke, his voice was firm and he sounded very determined, "Miss John, is Elliot in the office?"

Confused, she responded with confidence matching his tone of voice, "Yes Sir! he came in about fifteen minutes ago."

Lystra was hoping he would say to be ready, and he would be there shortly for them to visit the factory, but he said,  "Miss John,  I want you to inform Elliot to go  to Red Hill factory and stop all work there, and send all the workers home immediately and bring the keys to me." 

Shocked by what she was hearing, knowing that the consequences would be devastating and a lawsuit would follow, "But Sir!"

His voice was stern and without fear,  "Do as I say."

Walking promptly into his office for one o'clock, Lystra followed him and closed the door behind her before she said,  "Sir, we will be cited with a lawsuit if you don't reopen the factory immediately?"

Brent didn't even look at her he was becoming more angry with her constant boldness and nagging.

Turning to look at her he asked, "Can you tell me who is the Boss?

Lystra was aggrieved and hurt, she had always made an input in the past and never been ridiculed or abused, but suddenly he had become so vengeful. Responding to what he asked, "You are Sir, I am sorry."

Dipping her head in shame recalling how abusive he has become in this last month and so much change in his behaviour and his attitude towards her.

When he did speak his voice had toned down drastically, "Let it be, and kindly close my door as you leave, I don't want any disturbance whatsoever."

Locking his door behind her, she whispers to herself, "What is wrong with him? he has been behaving strangely for the past month. He doesn't look unwell but during the last few weeks, he kept closing his door. Why is that? he never locks his door. I was never told not to disturb him but he seems so distracted. I could be wrong but since that b*tch came to work in this office, he has changed and I know it has something to do with her."

Brent gets on his phone busily, making a call to his lawyer knowing he will need some friendly advice for the upcoming lawsuit.

He then formulates a plan in his mind, of what would occur if he was cited with a lawsuit because he knew this was the only way to resolve those matters. 'Though matter how I try to resolve their problem, something always seems to crop up.

Driving home Brent notices a black panel van at a distance wondering if he is being followed.

Calling Johnny to get two others and meet him at the Fantasy Club. Jessy is not at the apartment so he is not needed to watch the apartment. But what was the use, he never reported once of her well-being.

Sitting in his car thinking about when this madness had started and who was the culprit. I haven't interfered with anyone, the only interference that has been occurring is with the workers in Red Hill.

"Dear Lord, is it someone I have offended at the factory and they are venting out their anger towards me?"

While waiting he recalled his Dad's conversation, "I know I have his support but Mom can be difficult at times."

When Johnny and the two others came, Brent spoke with Johnny alone,  then left. Not long after he saw the van in sight, without fear he called the guard at home to set watch at the main entrance of the property. Trusting that Johnny will handle his end, he drives straight home.
