SHE DESERVES BETTER

chapter 7

Few days passed and Becky's condition improved much faster, she was now transferred from the ICU to the normal IPD wards, Leonard spent most of his time there with her, Amanda on the other side spent her after work hours to help Becky with her physical exercises alongside Leonard, they had grew fond of each other, Leonard escorted her to her way home every day after exercising with Becky, one day as they were strolling through the park Leonard received a call, he excused himself and went aside to pick it, few minutes later he came back to her, he looked troubled and uneasy

'Care to explain what is troubling you?' Amanda asked politely

'It's nothing, I can handle it' Leonard replied coldly trying to hide his discomfort

'Yeah right, you wouldn't so pissed right now if you can handle it, i am your friend or so I think, I can really help with the thinking if it's not about rocket science' Amanda said trying to break him

'Amanda I'm indebted to about fifty thousand dollars, Becky's treatment wasn't covered with insurance you know, I am set to pay it in two days and right now I have absolutely nada(nothing)' Leonard replied politely

'That's definitely rocket science, you must had a plan by then right? Amanda replied

'I had one, I will handle this I told you okay? Leonard replied

'Just don't kill anyone in the process will you? i will also see what I can do to help' she replied consoling him

Leonard headed straight to Mr. Derrick's house and was directed into his office,

'Don't be ridiculous, I can't just give you more time, it has been weeks and you have saved nothing, nothing really?, I trusted you with my money and you come here preaching me with some silly ass time, here's what i will do, as we are talking right now there are my people at your sister's ward waiting for my green light to end her miserable life, I am giving you 48 hours to bring me my cash or you will be sorry, really sorry because I will make sure I take whatever something that is dear to you and there will be nothing you will do, 48 hours I give you' Derrick spoke angrily

'I have a plan sir, we will both benefit more than you can imagine, I just need some extra five thousand dollars and six of your trusted men, I will give back to you more than three million dollars in untraced cash at the end of this week' Leonard replied confidently

'Okay right, What about me taking my pants off and you sodomize me right here right now? Five thousand dollars on top, who do you take me for, a clown? He replied furiously

'That will be inappropriate, if you could just trust me again, I have a plan with whom I have invested much of my time on it, and it has to be executed in two days or we will have to wait until the next three months, you won't have that patience would you? Leonard replied in a calm relaxed voice, Derrick sighed

'Leonard, you are going to regret it if your plan blows up on our faces, I don't know who you are going to rob but am trusting you with what you need, in three days in need my three millions dollars in cash and not otherwise, am I making myself clear?

'Crystal' Leonard replied, he spent the whole day debriefing the six men on each detail on how they are going to do the heist, the next day he woke up and headed to the hospital to see Becky, Becky had started to talk and they talked a lot of things that day, he looked happier than ever, in the afternoon he left for home and went to prepare himself for the next day.
