The Marvelous Elijah’s Return

Chapter 162 I am your mother!!!!

Darting his gaze away from the door, DeeDee looked back at Elijah and then said, “I can‘t leave the country now. Thornton is a smart man… If he senses that anything is out of place for a transaction, he will back off from it and go into hiding…” The fear in DeeDee‘s eyes subsided as he continued, “If you want to catch Thornton in the act and lock him up for good, tonight is the night. He has a container of teen girls leaving in the morning hours by sea to be sold to a Brothel in Memphis, and it‘s too dangerous to wait for another day… Tonight, his guard will be down because everything is set for the transaction.” “So, are you agreeing to my offer?” Elijah asked. “Yes!! These past months, I can barely look into my grandmama‘s eyes out of shame, knowing that I work for the devil. When I close my eyes, I am disgusted with the nightmare I have. Thornton said

if he aces this transaction, he will reward me with a weapon… I don‘t want a gun, I want to further my education.”

“Okay then, what‘s the plan? It seems like you know Thornton best.”

There was a long pause as DeeDee thought, and then he finally answered, “The transaction starts at eleven… We leave at ten. You will have Thornton‘s location at nine. You have a connection, so I will leave it up to you to figure out who to send. Just know that

Thornton is not only a drug Lord but a gun Lord. Have someone ready to move my grand–mama the exact time you plan to strike Thornton because…”

Looking back at the door, DeeDee swallowed hard. Then he said, “…Because Thornton doesn‘t trust newcomers, and he always has eyes on us. That’s why you need to wait a couple of minutes after I

leave the pharmacy before leaving through the back door. A single mistake with this and Thornton will run down hell on all of us… and it will be a bloodbath.” At five–fifteen, Elijah was seated in the back of his armored BMW X7 SUV, and knowing that his presence back in the country would have eyes on him, he pulled out his phone and dialed Mr. Bamford’s number.

“Can you get me in touch with the director of the FBI, like right now?” Elijah asked urgently. “You want to speak with Christopher?” Mr. Bamford questioned.

“Yes… On the phone.” “Concerning.”

“Something,”

The line went cold for a while, and then Mr. Bamford faintly chuckled before he said, “He will call you soon.” “Thanks,” Elijah uttered, staring at Dice, eyeing him in the rearview mirror.

“Are you not going to tell me what this is about–”

“Goodbye, Chief Constable.”

After his boss had ended the call, Dice met his gaze in the mirror and said, “You are not allowing the police to handle this?”

“If Thornton is as dangerous as they claimed, I don‘t want Bamford anywhere near there…” Elijah answered before putting away his phone.

“You are worried about him,”

“He has grown on me, but there are jobs for the police, and arresting a drug lord is not one of them because it‘s going to be messy if they do… So the FBI should handle this.”
