Chapter 47

Cory seats patiently in his car, observing his side mirror from time to time, anticipating Baptiste’s arrival. His mind occupied again by thoughts of Jasmine and the impression she had left on Uncle Ray. He knew he was lucky to have such a lady in his corner and Uncle Ray had made sure to reaffirm it.

He opens the door to the front passenger’s seat of his car as Baptiste approaches, and enters. Cory turns on the ignition, shifts it into gear and accelerates, driving past a few blocks, before turning into the parking lot of a shopping mall.

“Did you get a chance to take pictures this time?” Cory asks, turning to Baptiste as the car comes to a halt

“No I couldn’t this time, the alley was really dark boss. But I’m convinced it was the same lady

“Same location?” Cory quizzes keenly

“Exactly same place boss” Baptiste tells him

“Good job! I’ll really love to have pictures, just to erase any lingering doubts” Cory states

“I’ll have pictures for you very soon” Baptiste replies
