CHAPTER 137 Guttural


    Péte McDowell


    “There’s someone here who wants to talk to you the hospital director said. “He says it’s really


    important.”


    Only a handful of people knew the hospital director was on my payroll and of course, Cris


    was one of them.


    I did send Cris a message informing him I was in the hospital before that male nurse took. my phone.


    Could this someone be Cris?


    I doubted it. He would have called me himself instead. Why go through all that trouble?


    Unless he was in trouble.


    I thought of what to say, but decided it was best if I kept my mouth shut.


    Better let this someone do all the talking.


    “Mr. M, this person says he was hired by Cris Murdock,” the hospital director said breaking the


    awkward silence and this time I noticed the fear in his voice. “He also wants me to tell


    you


    he was hired to deliver a package to you. A package with blonde hair and blue eyes.” My heart began


    to beat faster in anticipation.


    Cris hired someone to kidnap Virtue!


    I knew it. That as shole couldn’t stop the voices in his head. He wanted Virtue Sullivan so bad, he was


    willing to be part of the heavy lifting.


    Because of Virtue, Cris began having trouble sustaining an erection with other girls. So we’ve been


    abducting women who looked just like her. Same hair, same build, same blue eyes. Unfortunately, the


    girl my men abductedst Saturday night said something that pushed him off the edge. I tried to stop


    him, I did. But he just kept squeezing the tiny bit ch’s neck until her eyes popped out. It wasn’t the


    ending I was hoping for, but we cashed in on so much money from our viewers that night..


    Come to think of it, there was a time Cris kidnapped a girl from Mandan and I clearly remember him


    saying he had some help. This could possibly be that same guy who helped


    him.

    CHAPTER 137 Guttural


    It was safe to assume he freaked out when he heard the news of Thoedore Cohen’s death and


    immediately sk ipped town, knowing Liam woulde knocking on his door looking for me.


    Cris was such a pu ssy. But he was a pu ssy with a n.


    I listened intently to the background noise and heard someone whispering. Unfortunately, it didn’t


    sound like Cris.


    “Mr. M, he understands your previous drop off point has beenpromised, so he is asking for another


    drop site. If you want him to deliver the package on your doorstep, just give him a location and he’ll


    take care of the rest,” the hospital director exined.


    I was wrong thinking Joy Taylor abducted Cris. He probably ditched his car on Elk Cliff so Liam


    wouldn’t be able to track him… and I believe he was somewhere here in Bismarck.


    If only I could smile. Our operations will soon resume. The shed behind my cabin was already prepped


    for Virtue. Sure, Cris knows about the cabin, but he has only been there once. I doubt if he even


    remembers how to get there.


    My lips parted to utter a reply, but I paused. I had to be sure.


    I mean, why would Cris need to send his hired gun to see the hospital director?


    “I need proof Cris Murdock hired him. Ask him how did Cris get in contact with him?” Cris wasn’t adept


    in using theputer. All our equipment was professionally set up by a private contractor and if he


    ever needed help elsewhere he usually asked Lisa.


    S hit! I sent him to delete all our videos. G od, I’m so st upid. He probably didn’t even


    “Through phone, Mr. M. The number Cris Murdock used to contact him is 374– However, for safety


    reasons, Mr. Murdock is no longer using that number,” the h ? director answered, enumerating the


    numbers of the burner phone Cris uses for ou e extracurricr activities. Liam, Jack, and Dan didn’t


    know about Cris’ other numbe


    there was a possibility Lisa did. I understood why Cris had to ditch his burner phone.


    And why go through the hospital director?” I asked.


    Mr. M, Cris Murdock believes no one else can be trusted. Good answer.


    “DDrop the package off at a small gas station along the road leading to Red River… midnight aftfter the


    Honey Bee Spring Formal celebration, I instructed. Once Virtue is in chains, I’ll hhuve one of the


    mercenaries kill him. “I want the package unspoiled and unharmed. Once 12/6


    CHAPTER 137 Guttural


    see the package, I will reward you generously.”


    you


    “I hear loud and clear,” a low guttural unfamiliar male voice said, sending a chill up my spine. “I’ll deliver


    VS at that location… midnight. I’ll be in touch.”


    He uttered the initials VS… That confirms it.


    I heard the hospital director heave a huge sigh of relief. I suspected the mysterious man had


    gone.


    “He had a gun to my back! Mr. M, you owe me twice now,” he mumbled angrily. “And by the way, a


    package with blonde hair and blue eyes? Are you into ck market or gan selling too?”


    “Doc, may I remind you, you’re on a need to know basis and in this situation, you don’t need to know.


    Before you hang up, I want these rods off of me by next week. I have a date with a breathtakingly


    beautiful woman and I don’t want to scare her. I’ll have someone pick you up. Once these rods are off,


    I’ll pay you twice the amount that was promised.”


    I hung up feeling a bit better.


    After giving my private army final instructions to burn Huff Hills Mansion to the ground and find better


    living quarters, I excused myself and went to my makeshift room to lie down. I needed to rest so I could


    heal faster.


    After the Ol’ Barn, I’ll allow Liam to have his fun until the Honey Bee Spring celebration… that’s if he


    survives the Ol’ Barn. But knowing Liam, he won’t be there. But there was Jack and the Sheriff. They


    may not be Liam, but the two of them dead would be icing on the cake.


    I’ll keep my distance and stay quiet until next week.


    I closed my eyes, imagining the terror in Virtue’s eyes as I f ucked her perfect pu ssy.


    SHE WAS WORTH THE WAIT.


    Sam


    It wasn’t easy tracking down the hospital director especially when the information given to you is


    common public information, but after sharing a cigarette with a janitor of the hospital, I discovered


    something not even Autumn knew.

    parked beside a red Toyota in front of a room.


    I bought myself a cup of coffee and waited patiently in my car, knowing the doctor and hispanion


    would being out soon to go to work. As expected, the door opened and a pretty young brte


    wearing blue scrubs quickly exited the motel room and entered the red Toyota. She was all smiles and


    looked quite refreshed.


    About five minutes after she drove off, the door opened again. A gray haired man in a dark blue suit


    came out carrying a dark brown leather briefcase in one hand with his car key in the other, unlocking


    the car doors of his Lexus.


    Unexpectedly, he suddenly paused in front of his car like he had forgotten something and rushed back


    into the room.


    I saw my chance. I walked out of my car, climbed into the backseat of his car right behind seat. the


    driver’s seat and quietly waited, positioning my gun at the middle of the driver’s


    The dumb f uck was so distracted he didn’t even notice me as he entered the car. He only saw me


    when he turned to ce his briefcase in the backseat.


    “No sudden movements, Doc,” I whispered in his ear. “I have a Walther PDP aimed at your back.


    Hands on the steering wheel so I can see them.” Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    “W-what do you want?” He asked. “I have money. I can give you ten grand, just… just let me


    live.”


    “I don’t need your money, but I do need you to do something for me. I need you to get on your phone


    and call Pete McDowell, I instructed.


    “P-Pete McDowell is on vacation. No one knows where he=”


    “Doc, do you really want to die for Pete? Because if I can’t get in touch with him th you, I’ll just shoot


    you and find someone else who can help me. So, what is it gonna


    or call?” I asked, not giving him much of a choice.


    me.So,


    *F-fine, I’ll call him. J-just let me get my phone. It’s in my pocket,” the doctor said, pointin to his pants’


    pocket.


    “Sure. Just reach in slowly and ce your phone in your dashboard holder. Put it on. speakerphone so


    I can hear what he has to say.”


    I whispered into the doctor’s ear while he spoke to McDowell for me. Pete sounded funny. 4/6


    CHAPTER 137 Guttural


    like he couldn’t open his mouth to talk. I suspected he had some work done to his face.


    midnight


    “Drop the package off at a small gas station along the road leading to Red River…. after the Honey


    Bee Spring Formal celebration. I want the package unspoiled and unharmed. Once I see the package, I


    will reward you generously,” he said.


    “I hear you loud and clear,” I said in a sinister voice. “I’ll deliver VS at that location…. midnight. I’ll be in


    touch.”


    I quickly exited the doctor’s car, walked away and hid in an alley beside the motel. I didn’t want the


    doctor to see my car and memorize my te number. I liked my car… it had everything I needed


    tucked away in the backseat.


    After he drove out of the motel’s parking lot towards the direction of New Salem, I entered my car and


    drove off in the opposite direction while dialing Beaufort.


    “Pete has given me instructions to drop off Virtue Sullivan at a gas station along the ad


    leading to Red River at midnight after the Honey Bee Spring Formal,” I informed him.


    “He actually believed Cris hired you,” Beaufort said chuckling. “ording to Sebastian, he has a cabin


    in that area. I’ll have Cristos give us a satellite image of the area so we can form a n. Good work,


    Sam.”


    “What else do you need me to do?” I asked, hoping he had something more exciting for me than


    stalking Noah Jensen. After the vigil, I followed him to Hignd Oaks to the Hughes residence.


    ording to the tracker I have on his car, Noah was still there.


    Last night, when Beaufort called me to take care of Cris’ car, I actually felt relieved stand sitting in my


    car all night, doing nothing. Honestly, I was envious of Link a Link got to shoot some olddy while he


    was at the hospital keeping an eye on N Max, well, he was having fun torturing someone for


    information.


    I couldn’t question Beaufort though… he thinks Noah is up to something. But from w seen, Noah just


    likes shuffling from one girlfriend to the next… and boy, does he have b taste in women.


    ldn’t


    “Get some rest, Sam. Later tonight, I need you wide-eyed and perky. You’ll be assisting me at the Ol’


    Barn. Just keep an eye on Noah through that tracker you have on his car and if you hear anything out


    of the ordinary, call me.”


    “Sure thing, Beaufort,” I said, pleased I was going to see some action tonight.
