"What are you doing coming out alone?" He notice Helen didn’t come out with Olivia.

 "Oh shit, am waiting for her to bring the girl, so we can leave this place fast and she dares to walk out alone?," Noah grind his teeth in anger.

 "You didn't tell me am supposed to bring her here, this shoes hurt," she bend over to check up on her toes.

"Are you stupid?, I thought you are bringing her. Why are you here alone?, go get her and let's get out of this building."

"How?"

 "What do you mean how?, tell her you want to buy her something or whatever, just do something to get her out of the building now". He shouted at Helen because he thought that Helen was the dumbest thief he has ever known.

But Helen was afraid of that little girl. She is too smart for her age.

"You didn't tell me that is what I needed to do," she try defending herself.

"Are you dumb?, what kind of a thief are you?" he grinds his teeth as he speaks.

"Well, thank goodness you said thief, not kidnapper. I don't know how to convince a little girl who talks too much to follow me out. If you had asked me to take those golds, we would have been on our way by now."

Helen went back inside to convince Olivia to follow her out of the mansion.

 "But mum the party is about to start, Dad just called and I told him that you're here."

"Shit… what!, you told your dad that I'm here?, you should have told me before you call him."

"Mum, I didn't call him. He called me, asking me about my birthday and I told him that Noah brought you here as my birthday gift, so he said he's coming. So mum please don't leave, he wants to see you, please don't go."

"Fine, I'm not going but you have to promise me that you will come with me out of the mansion because I have to buy you some special gift, not just a chocolate, I want something your dad will appreciate, is been long I left you and I also want to surprise your dad.

“Really! Thank you, Mum." Olivia was so happy that she agreed to go out of the mansion with Helen.

"Wow… thank goodness," Helen murmured. She didn't know what she would have done if Captain Ray came home to meet her.

She thought of taking off her shoes to aid her walk faster, but no, the guards will be suspicious of her.

She succeeded in taking little Olivia out of her room to where Noah was waiting by the car.

"Where are we going, mum?"

 "To get you something special, just stay calm. We will be back in a minute." The little girl nod and they drove off.

Olivia went with Helen and they enter the car and drove away. They got to the airport and took a private jet.

"Where are we going?, I thought we are going to buy something special. " she didn't think that it includes her getting into a private jet.

"Yeah, we are going to buy something special for you, and there's this special place I want you to see, so just relax. I'm taking you to a very special place. We will be back in a minute."

Helen reply with her heart racing like a mad horse, she wish they got to where they are going fast, she wants all this to be over fast, she hasn't done this before, she was so afraid for the little girl but when she remembered her own problems, she didn't know what to do but to go on with the plan.

Little Olivia followed Helen and Noah with no more questions and they head to a place unknown to Olivia. she wasn't worried about a thing because to her she was following her mother.

"Stay here, I'm coming". Helen said to Olivia while diverting to a different direction when they landed.

 Before the little girl knew what was happening,  two hefty hands grab her and cover her face.

"Mum…." she cried. "Please help me mum, where are you?, please help me". She keeps shouting while Helen cannot stay still in her hiding place.

"Please tell me where they're taking her?, I hope they are not going to hurt her." Helen ask Noah as they hide behind a container and watch as the men took Olivia away.

"No, they're not going to hurt her. Once the money is wired to the boss's account, they will let her go. You don't have to worry about a thing, I am the one who should be worried, not you," Noah told Helen.

"why?"

"Because I just resigned, you know, that makes me the prime suspect in this case, so this deal better pull off, if not I will be homeless and jobless," Helen didn't know if to have pity on Noah or for the little girl.

Helen's phone rang, is the boss, he wants to get details of the operation.

"Package delivered sir,… boss, she's alive," she added hoping that will make him happy.

"Good, report back to office immediately. I have a job for you,"

"What!", Helen couldn't believe this. She just got back from one hectic job done, and he didn't even give her time to relax before asking her to jump into another mission.

She stood in front of the boss in less than twenty minutes, not talking.

"What is it Helen?" the boss ask popping up the smoke coming out of his cigarette without looking at Helen

"The girl."

"What about the girl.?"

"She's going to be safe,  right?”  because Helen didn't think that those men looks gently at all. They look like killers and how can a little girl like Olivia survive those men?

"What do you care? You're a thief, Helen. Just concentrate on your job and stop concerning yourself about a little girl. get ready to leave tomorrow,"

"I'm not leaving until I'm sure Olivia is ok." Helen stood there like she just took a medicine that gives people courage and boldness or maybe she's on a dead wish or something.

The boss walked closer to Helen and put his hands in his pocket and Helen thought.

"This is it, am dead now."

But the boss brought out his phone.

"Look". He showed Helen his phone. "Negotiations are going on right now, so just worry about your pay".  

The boss told her and she felt like jumping up for joy because this will be the first time she will be getting paid for going on a mission.

The boss has always been the one thinking for Helen when it comes to buying stuffs that he didn't bother paying Helen. He treats her like she didn't know what money is.

"And I said no!". Helen stood her ground. She wanted to be sure little Olivia was okay before taking on another mission.

"What do you want?". The boss asked Helen, turning to face her, because he has never had Helen challenge his authority, so what is going on?.

 "Now tell me, why are you so interested in that little girl?" he ask popping his smoke on Helen's face forcing her to move backwards until she met a resistance and then she turned back to look.

Is Noah! He was standing there looking at Helen and thinking that maybe she has a death wish talking to the boss like that.
