Tangle episode 25

He knew it was his only friend knocking so he rose up and made for the door.
'What's happening Jeff?' he asked after opening the door and seeing his friend at the door step.
'The Chairman wants to speak with you' Jeffery announced.
Hearing this, Malik was stunned. He hasn't been able to decide what to say to him concerning the issue of this girl yet.
'Tell him I went out, I will call him later' he replied.
'He is on a video call and I already told him you are in your room' Jeff said.

'Okay I will be with him in a few seconds' he said and Jeff went away.
With his heart pounding, he followed his friend to the sitting room.
On the screen of their flat screen television is the image of a man whose face was displayed in shadow.
The two guys sat before the T.V
'Good afternoon sir' they both chorused.
'Hello my boys, how are you doing' the image on the screen greeted.
'We are fine sir'.
'We have a huge work to do. Malik I haven't seen what I told you to send and where is that your new employee? I will like to have a word with her' The Chairman asked.
Malik was dumbfounded he never thought the he could request to see her.
'She ---, Hemmmm' Malik gibbered in fear.
'Sorry sir she isn't around presently, she is in her house' Jeffery intervened.
Malik cursed his friend for stepping in.
'Okay, how do I see her ‘cause she has an important role to play in this next operation?' the chairman said.
'We will call her here this evening so you can speak with her, and about her bio data, Malik suggested we do a thorough investigation on her so we hired a private investigator to work on it. The result will be out tomorrow' Jeffery quickly spoke before his friend could say anything.
'That is a brilliant idea, just make sure I get the data tomorrow and I will call you 7 p.m today make sure she is around. I can't give out the detail of the operation if you all are not present. Good day' Chairman said.
'Good day sir' they chorused again and the image vanished from the screen.
'Thanks so much for saving my ass Jeff' Malik said.
'I saved both our asses, now how do we get her here before 7 p.m?' Jeff asked.
'Let me call her mobile phone number' Malik picked up his phone and dialed her number.
'Hello Helen, how are you?' Malik greeted on phone.
'Who is this?' The voice on phone asked.
'This is Malik please come over here now we have a serious issue to discuss' Malik said.
'Malik or what do you call yourself, you think you can order me around because you have money? Look, I have already erased you people from my life, I suggest you do the same and don't ever call my number again' the call ended.
Malik was taken aback by what he heard, he checked the number to be sure he didn't dial a wrong number but it was Helen's number indeed.
'Is she coming now?' Jeff asked.
'No, she insulted me saying I should never call her again' Malik explained.
'This girl doesn't know what she is into. Let’s go over to her house'
'That won't work, this is half past five and the journey to her area is about three hour’s journey, we won't be able to pick chairman's call at seven'
'So what will you suggest we do now?' Jeffery asked
'I haven't got any idea' Malik answered.
They both started thinking on what to do.
Suddenly the door opened and someone stepped into the house with a traveling bag. They were both surprised to see Helen standing before them.
