Chapter 34

Chris was inside his office going through the monthly report of the restaurant while paying attention to the BBC news that had been displayed on the forty two inches flat TV that was attached to the wall.

As the news was going on the journalist announced the death of Mr. Bernard the former CEO of Ethic textiles and immediately Boris left the report he was checking and turned his gaze towards the TV.

Afterwards the journalist also announced that Jerry the son of Mr. Bernard and also the present CEO of the company was shot the same day that his father died by an unknown individual but fortunately he survived the gunshot and that the authorities are still investigating to find the culprit.

Once the report was over Chris took his phone and immediately placed a call across to Jeff who picked up after some seconds.

"Hello Jeff, how are you?" Chris asked across the phone.

"I'm fine Chris, I'm still expecting my payment." Jeff said to Chris from the other end.
