Today was their last day in Johannesburg. They had toured most places and it was very lovely experience even though it was for a short time since their main purpose was business.
They would be leaving tonight but they had a meeting to attend to first.

"Let us carry the furniture and all the materials by sea. It will be easier and much more safer than air." Rowan said.
"Mr. Mendoza you are forgetting the dangers of the sea. That will also take alot of time. We are speaking about expensive materials being taken from the US to Africa precisely Johannesburg." Sophia countered.
"If money is your main problem then I'll gladly fund this." Rowan sneered.
"Money is not the problem here and you know it. There are a lot of risks if we decide to make these shipments by sea. We can use many jets to make sure they have arrived safely. What if some sort of switch happens and this hotel would be complete by next month?"
"Dr. Parker, I agree with Mr. Mendoza on using the sea. Most women act on impulse take for example my wife. It would be much better if we use the sea."
"When you went to business school you left out an integral part. Don't mix business with pleasure and emotions. Don't you know business is sacred. Well, do as you please. I can see it's a matter of taking sides due to gender. Sea it is then." Sophia spat and smirked.
She knew alot of geography to know the distance between Johannesburg and New York and she had alot of knowledge to know that mafia shipments were mostly done by sea.
She wasn't about to jeopardize this and she had to act fast on this otherwise stand to lose everything.

"Home sweet home." Damian plopped down onto his bed. After the previous conversation with his dad it was no longer needed that he moves in with Sophia. He didn't want Anna to have the wrong idea about them.
The moment the plane had touched down at JFK Sophia drove to the location of Daniel. She watched him as he took in a girl of about 16 years into his house. She was repulsed. His men were nowhere in sight so she alighted from her car and used the back door to enter the house.
He was drunk and the girl was shivering in fear. He removed his cock and Sophia gagged as she nearly vomited. Her head was dizzy because of what she had seen.
She went behind him and signalled the girl to keep quiet and hit his head with a pan. He collapsed on the floor as she took the girl's hand the evidence and took off.
She hid behind the bushes when she saw Daniel's men coming. The girl was whimpering so she had to shush her. "Do you hear something?" "Nah, it might be the crickets."
When they entered the house Sophia took the girls hand and ran to her car. When she closed the passenger's door and sat in the driver's the men were chasing after her as she drove as fast as she could.
They fired shots repeatedly at her car and she registered a sharp pain on her right arm. She still drove madly until they reached the city.
It wasn't a good idea to go to her house so she went to her penthouse. She wore her jacket to cover her bleeding arm after dropping the young girl at the police station where her parents were crying their eyes out.
She was in the elevator when the doors opened and the last person she was expecting to see walked in. Could her day get any worse. She brought her hair forward and covered her face so that she wouldn't be recognised.
At the next spot Damian entered and shouted, "Sophia? Is that you?" Rowan abruptly turned and cursed when he didn't recognize the weird lady as Sophia.
Sophia's face was twisted in agony but tried to keep it poker. "Why is your face like that?" "How?" "You look like you're trying to hide something." Damian said.
"Oh, it's nothing. Just the new butt plug in town. It's really good. Hits all the best spots." She hurriedly brushed it off and practically ran out of the elevator when her stop came.
"Didn't know she was into those kind of stuff." Damian commented. Rowan nodded and left the elevator. He was also on the same floor as Sophia. His gut told him something was terribly wrong and it was confirmed when he saw blood on the floor and on her door knob.
He wiped it so it wouldn't create any suspicion and went into her house after picking the lock. The tap was running and when he peeped inside the bathroom his heart nearly stopped.
Sophia had ripped her shirt and was removing the bullet from her skin. He waited till she had removed it so that she would not be frightened and jump causing more damage.
She poured alcohol on it and winced. This woman had a heart of stone if she could endure that without screaming and fidgeting. He decided to make his presence known.
"Did you kill someone?" He mentally cursed since that was a stupid question. "I'm not even going to ask how you got in. Just get out."
