《The Hidden Myth of Ji Dara 》Chapter 25: Good… Now, listen carefully!

It has an inbuilt garden, basketball court, gym, trampoline and an aquarium where several little unique and endangered species of fishes were swimming around…
There was a yoga room with aroma therapy candles arranged in specific and intentional manner...
This place was indeed a heaven and there was enough space to house a family of ten without feeling cramped or bumping into one another in any way…
"There are also many other features which I will gladly leave you to discover and explore on your own…"
Jim finished his tour guide duty and stepped aside as Sam connected his watch to the apartment, and just like with the SUV, he claimed ownership of the apartment and afterwards they had their meeting and he released them to go begin their work…
Meanwhile…
Far away from the frim...
A 2021 Lexus L570 Hypersport SUV parked out in front of a yoga/gym house...
Lisa stepped out of the car in her yoga training outfit;
"Hi Lisa!"
"Hi Ben, how you holding up this wet morning?" Lisa conversed;
"A mega sized umbrella… a raincoat… and a pretty comfy rain boots!"
The security office at the entrance of this gym house pointed overhead at the massive umbrella he had fixed atop his post, and then pointed to his nylon long coat and finally to the ground at his massive black rain boots;
"Really comfy, don't forget to add a cup of hot cocoa to the list!" Lisa said as she walked into the gym house…
"You're late, Lisa!"
The masculine voice of a male yoga instructor boomed across the hall as the rest of the people exercising looked over to the door;
"Come on ralph, she is the wife of the famous Super Sam, that should at least count for something, right?"
The female yoga instructor said as she swayed her hips past the man called Ralph;
"Fine… That's strike one…" He said trying to resist looking at the ass of the female yoga instructor;
"Oh, does that mean I can still be late one last time?" Lisa joked at her yoga instructor with a smile;
"Don't mind Ralph, he is more muscles and less emotion…" the female yoga instructor joked back;
"Thanks, Hannah…" Lisa said with a thankful sigh;

"Anytime… So, Super Sam got you up till late at night?"
Hannah asked with a mischievous wink which caused Lisa to blush slightly and then reply;
"More like all morning…"
She said as she followed Hannah to the female area of the yoga parlor…
"Hi…Hi…Hi…" Lisa greeted every wife and girlfriend she saw in the area;
"Damn girl, that is some morning yoga!" Hannah continued…
She loved to see Lisa's flushed expression every time they spoke about intimate things they have done with their partners; according to Hannah, it would allow everyone to bond with each other faster and better, and she was right…
"No, not that…" Lisa gave a naughty frown as she continued;
"He has an interview today at Aeon Consults, so I had to help him with some stuffs…"
"Whaaaattt!?" Hannah comically exclaimed;
"That calls for some celebration!" Hannah said as she called the attention of all the ladies in the area;
"Kim, would you please turn up the volume of that speaker…"
"Ladies, we are celebrating Lisa's husband; Sam's new job… So today, we are all going to dance all through…"
Hannah's contagious positivity got all the ladies on their feet almost in an instant as they came together and began to congratulate Lisa one after the other, and before long, a tray containing one mojito for each lady came in…
Lisa took hers and sipped it, and just as she did that, the attendant that brought in the drink turned around and left…
The moment the attendant left the door, she pulled off her uniform revealing a sexy curvaceous lady in those kind of outfits modern hi tech assassins wore…
She whipped out her phone out of only nowhere and texted an unknown number;
"It is done…"
About thirty seconds later, her hone chimed and the message was from the unknown number that gave her the coordinates to some location;
"Your payment lies here…" That was the other message that accompanied the coordinates…
Meanwhile…
Back at the kid's school…
Jacob and Ivory had just stepped outside of the school entrance when they abruptly saw two pairs of strong hands cross their faces and planted a white handkerchief on their faces, inhaling the potent odor from the handkerchief, their vision blurred and their legs weakened as they fell into the embrace of these unknown men...

Then before the situation could grab the attention of anyone around the area, they were already inside the matte van which zoomed off immediately after…
Two hours later, during the yoga session, Lisa began to feel groggy and a little winded…
Hannah asked if she should get a doctor, but Lisa simply smiled as she reminded Hannah that she was a top class doctor herself, before reassuring her that she just needed to take a little rest…
Lisa got into her SUV and before she could touch the ignition, she felt the nozzle of a pistol silencer against her forehead before a very deep but scrambled masculine voice cracked;
"Lock the doors, don't make any funny moves and this might go well for yourself and your kids…"
With one hand pointing the gun at her head, the other hand brought a phone across Lisa's face where she saw Jacob and Ivory in an unknown room with their hands and legs duck taped, including their mouths, as they trembled in sheer trepidation, crying badly…
"~Aww~" Lisa gasped in fear as she tearfully pleaded;
"Please don't hurt my kids, I will do whatever you want…" She began to sob through her blurry as she stuttered;
"Good… Take this and drink it…"
The man offered her a vial containing some sort of potion…
Lisa took it and gulped everything in a hurry…
"That's good…"
"You really should check whatever you drink from now henceforth… if you survive for that long that is…"
The man spoke as Lisa looked to her rear view mirror and saw a masked face, and just from the head alone she could tell the man's physical constitution, from weight, to height and muscle tone…
"What you have just drunk is the antidote to the mild tranquilizer that your cocktail was poisoned with…" The man revealed;
"In about two minutes, you should be clear headed enough to drive…"
The man added as Lisa began to regret why she had her SUV windows tinted, because otherwise, at least passersby would have seen what was going on right now, and they were a lot of them walking past her car, but she couldn't do anything but watch her only source of help tragically walk past her…
Two minutes later, the man gazed at his watch before urging;
"Drive!"
"Where am I heading to?"
"No questions, just do as I say and you will be fine…" The man added before poking Lisa's head with the silencer nozzle…
Lisa started the car and drove off the parking area, and just as she left, Hannah who had been at the window of the gym house trying to see if Lisa made it down to the car safely, stood there wondering why it had taken Lisa almost three minutes to start her car and leave…
When she saw Lisa leave, she simply shrugged her shoulders and returned to the yoga parlor…
Whilst all these was happening, Sam was still within his apartment checking his new security plan to confirm any flaws within it…
Thirty minutes later....
Sam receives a phone call from an unknown number which for some reasons came as a huge surprise to him, because not only did it mean that whoever was calling was elusive enough that not even Aeon Consults satellite had any information about him…
He took a few minutes before answering the call…
"Finally… I was beginning to think I had the wrong number…"
A scrambled voice on the other side of the call spoke with a comical surprised tone;
"Who is this!?" Sam spoke with a solemn tone;
"That is the wrong question to ask, Super Sam…"
Sam could sense a little bit of amusement from the caller's tone, as he began to tap some buttons on his watch with rapid speed;
"Now you have gone quiet…"
"I suggest you try not to contact anyone as not only might you get them killed, but you might also get yourself and your family killed, due to what you call 'protocol' and what I call 'stupidity'…"
The voice said and Sam's finger abruptly froze when he heard the mention of his family;
"Do you know what happens when you threaten a man's family!?" Sam raged through the phone;
"Oh, so you think this is a threat or a simple prank…"
"You are sorely mistaken Super Sam, and I suggest you check your notifications to understand just how mistaken you are…"
The man said as Sam checked his notification and there was his family all bound up together, hooked to a chain, dangling above a reservoir of water filled with piranhas…
"What do you want?" Sam finally toned down;
"Good… Now, listen carefully!"
