"Is Jared Johnston still downstairs?" Nicole asked while looking at Martin with inquiring eyes.
"He had left when I came up."
"I thought he would follow us up too...,"
Nicole murmured.
"What did you say?" Martin asked, not having caught up with what Nicole had said.
"I said, our affairs can't be explained in a sentence or two.So, you should just drop it."

Martin got up and sent them off.
Nicole and Kyle proceeded to drive to the cargo plane with their truckload of goods.
"Carl, I won't be going back with you. There are a few other things I must attend to here. Be careful on the way

to check, and that was when he coincidentally got himself into the arms of Claus Junkerman.
"Where do you think you're going?" Claus asked him, his voice low and icy.
"I just wanted to see what was going on,"
Conrad was scared and sat back down at once, unsure of what this group of people were doing.
