The Young Master in the Shadows
Chapter 29: A Phone Call
Harold Smith was busy reading an important document when his private phone’s ringing sound startled him. Looking at it, he saw that it was an unknown number.
But still, he chose to answer. In his line of work, he can’t afford to miss an important call.
“Hello, “ he said.
“A Hello Uncle.” a confidant young man answered from the other side.
“May I know who is it?” He asked,
“Yes, I am Victor white.”
“Ah, young master Victor, your father has already informed me that you would be living in Vein city, are you here already? “
He said polity while remembering master Theodor’s stern order to take care of his son who will be living in Vein city. As the city’s police chief, he knew some secrets, held a responsibility toward the safety of the family’s heirs under his jurisdiction.
“Yes, I arrived yesterday,”
“That’s good. If I can help you, young master, with anything, I am always ready.”
“I know, and that is why I am calling. I just had an accident on the highway...”
“Ah, are you alright?” he asked in a frightened voice. If anything were to happen to this young master, especially on the day of his arrival, he might lose his head. Or worst, his position.
“No, Everything is fine. It’s just that I was delayed by an unreasonable young police officer. She insisted that I should go to the station with her.”
There is only one young traffic officer who came to his mind. But he hoped it was not her.
“Can you see her tag, is her name, Lea Smith?”
“Yes, precisely.”
“F*** !!!” he cursed, “Young master, don’t worry, I will fix this right away. Please get her on the phone.”
“OK,”
“This is for you” he could hear the young master talking to his daughter but the next moment there was a sound of a crash and the call ended.
“F*** !!!”
He could guess what had just happened. This daughter of his is getting more unreasonable as she grew up.
So he quickly fumbled with his phone to make a call, but due to the shaking of his hand, it took him two full minutes to dial his daughter’s phone number.
She answered after a few beeps. And her sweet voice calmed him a little bit. Maybe he can salvage the situation, he thought.
“Hi daddy, is there anything, I am busy arresting a filthy criminal down here and I will call you when I finish,” she said intending to hang up.
“Is his name Victor white?” he asked
“Ah, yes,...”
“He didn’t do anything illegal, right? Let him go right now, that’s an order” he can’t be soft with this girl anymore, or she would be the end of him.
“No, he didn’t. But daddy, he is very suspicious. I am sure he has some nasty secrets.” she said in a soft voice.
“LOOK, IF YOU DON’T LET HIM GO RIGHT NOW, I WILL FIRE YOU FROM THE POLICE FOR DISOBEYING ORDERS.”
He didn’t want to yell at her. But some things must be done. He can’t simply tell her how horrible this guy’s family is. She would probably naively attempt to arrest them and end up dead with the rest of the police squad in the process.
“OK, fine,” she said.
He could hear the aggrieved voice of his daughter and that made his heart bleed. But before he could say anything she hang up the phone, and he knew she was very angry with him.
But he was sure she would do the right thing,...probably.
