Chapter 41 - Gotcha! (2/2)
”Could it be?” he asked himself.
He quickly logged into his computer and opened some files.
Jackson actually had pinhole cameras planted around his house for safety, so he decided to check the footage from the previous night.
As he fast forwarded through the video, he suddenly stopped. He had found the moment when Halia left the bathroom.
His suspicions were correct.
As soon as he played the video again, he saw Halia searching through his drawers and cupboards...
Jackson's lips curved upwards into a slight smile.
”Gotcha!”
He then glanced at his study room. Lucky it was locked that night. If she had discovered what was inside, he would have been done for.
Jackson slowly walked over to the study room and pulled out a key. He then opened the door...
The lights were off, so the room was dark, but it was dimly lit by a blue glow from the three big screens sitting on his desk. They seemed to be surveillance cameras watching over something.
On the wall hung a collection of guns and weapons.
He walked over to the desk and pulled out a drawer. Inside sat a pile of burner phones and unopened SIM cards. He picked up a phone, placed a new SIM card inside and turned it on. He then dialed a number he knew by heart.
As soon as the person on the other end picked up the phone, Jackson simply said, ”Marcus est mort. Je suis en danger. Je vous recontacterai vendredi.”
(Marcus is dead. I am in danger. I will contact you again on Friday.)
As soon as he was done talking, Jackson immediately turned off the phone and took out the SIM card. He then walked out of the study room, locked the door and left his apartment.
He walked down to the underground parking lot and jumped into his new Bentley. He didn't normally drive this car, but he wanted to show off today. His car eventually pulled up at a busy luxurious shopping mall where he secretly disposed of the SIM card and proceeded to do some shopping.
Meanwhile, not too far away, a man was watching Jackson. He picked up his phone and called a number. ”I've been following him all day, nothing seems out of the ordinary.”
