I needed no one to tell me that my interrogation session was over with Lily, so I left without any delay. As soon as we left the gym room, we headed to the living room where I saw a charming man entering the living room. Lily rushed to the man and planted a steamy French kiss on his lips. I watched nervously as the couple kissed sensually without even caring that I was even watching them ; after a while, they both stopped and stared at me.
.
Teddy ➡ Honey, who’s this?
.
Lily ➡ No one you need to bother yourself with. She was just leaving. Isn’t that right?
.
Ijeoma ➡ Yes, I was just leaving. Have a good night you two.
.
Lily ➡ And one more thing!
.
Ijeoma ➡ Yes?
.
Lily ➡ Don’t ever come here.. Ever! I don’t ever want to see you again till the end of our days.. Understand?
.
Ijeoma ➡ Sure..good night.
.
After I left the house, I entered my car and drove away as fast as I could. That Lily certainly has some issues and I’m going to do myself a favor by staying away from her for good.
The info I got from her wasn’t sufficient enough but I know the kind of enemy I’m dealing with and it’s a very powerful one. Although, what fascinates me was the fact that mysterious ki||er is a lady and whoever she is, she’s a force to be reckoned with. If an ex ruthless assassin like Lily could go to that length to warn me, then it seems that this case is nothing more than a suicide mission. May God help us all.

#OMNISCIENT_POV
At around 8:00pm, Mallam Yusuf sits in his living room comfortably drinking a chilled Fura da nono with relish.
While enjoying his drink, he gets a call from Mr. Clement who tells him everything that is going to happen. Upon hearing the disturbing news, the Hausa man gasps in shock and drops the drink spilling it on the cold tiled floor.
.
Yusuf ➡ ME NE? ?…. THIS IS A JOKE.. WALLAHI YOU’RE JOKING.
.
Clement ➡ Do I sound like I’m joking? It’s happening as we speak.. That b–tch must be on her way.
.
Yusuf ➡ This is bad.. Waiyoo Allah. Why didn’t you inform me since?
.
Clement ➡ Instead of asking stupid questions why don’t you find a way to protect yourself. Gather your men and get ready for her.
.
Yusuf ➡ This is short notice… I don’t have enough men.. I have to get out of here.
.
Clement ➡ You fool.. It’s too risky.
.
Yusuf ➡ I don’t have any choice.. If I make it out of here, I’ll make that organization pay.. WALLAHI!
.
In that sudden moment, the lights in the house instantly goes off sending the Mallam in a state of panic. The elderly man reaches out for his phone and calls his guards but there’s no response from any of them.
Gripped by fear, Mallam Yusuf tries to leave his house so as to escape but unfortunately for him, bad luck befalls him as he steps on the spilled Fura and slips down hard on the floor hurting himself.
Despite that, the elderly man gets back on his feet and heads to the door. Immediately Yusuf opens the door, he comes face to face with a smiling Black ace. He freezes for a moment and then tries to hit her but she dodges and drops a kick on the man’s chest sending him rolling back into the house.
Feeling the pain surging throughout his body, Mallam Yusuf lies flat on the ground unable to move.
.
Elizabeth ➡ (Laughs) Going somewhere Mallam?
.
Yusuf ➡ Please.. Don’t ki|| me.
.
Elizabeth ➡ I’m sorry… (Laughs).. I just have to ki|| you. You’ve made daddy really angry.
.
Yusuf ➡ Please.. I beg you. I have 4 wives and 16 kids.
.
Elizabeth ➡ Chei… Na football club you wan start?? 16 children. That’s a lot. But if I may ask, how did you know I was coming?
.
Yusuf ➡ What!?
.
Elizabeth ➡ I said how did you know I was coming?
.
Yusuf ➡ I didn’t.. I was just leaving for the mosque.
.
Laughing maniacally at the lies of the Mallam, Elizabeth brings out a gun and $h00ts both his thighs. Yusuf yells out loud and painfully not knowing which lap to hold on to. As he keeps yelling in pain, Elizabeth points her gun at him again but this time she aimed for his forehead.
.
Elizabeth ➡ I won’t repeat myself you old fart. Answer my question.
.
Yusuf ➡ It was.. It was.. Clement.
.
Elizabeth ➡ Mr. Clement?
.
Yusuf ➡ Yes..
.
Elizabeth ➡ Well, well, well. This just got interesting. Anyways thanks for you cooperation, it’s time for you to say bye. (laughs maniacally)
.
Yusuf ➡ ? NO! PLEASE.. NOOOOOO!!!
.
Bang ?
Bang ?
Bang ?
.
After firing 3 bullets into Mallam Yusuf, Elizabeth takes a little walk around the house and makes a phone call to King.
.
King ➡ Hello ace, is the task over?
.
Elizabeth ➡ Yes o.
.
King ➡ The target is he dead?
.
Elizabeth ➡ Dead as a Ç0çƙroach in the gutters.
.
King ➡ Good.
.
Elizabeth ➡ But..
.
King ➡ But?
.
Elizabeth ➡ Someone alerted the target that I was coming.
.
King ➡ Who was it?
.
Elizabeth ➡ It was Clement. Should I pay him a visit?
.
King ➡ No.. Not yet.. Let’s see what he has to say for himself.
.
Elizabeth ➡ If you say so. Bye.
.
King ➡ I want you back at base within 48 hours. Understand?
.
Elizabeth ➡ Sure, I will. Bye.
.
After that, Elizabeth ends the call and soon makes another call to her love interest ; after ringing for some seconds, Dave finally answers her call.
.
Dave ➡ Hey Elizabeth.
.
Elizabeth ➡ Darling.. I’ve missed you.
.
Dave ➡ Uhm.. Me too Where are you?

Elizabeth ➡ In Kano, the ancient city and I just ki||ed a man. Isn’t it exciting?
.
Dave ➡ Jesus Christ!

Elizabeth ➡ Is something wrong?
.
Dave ➡ No, not at all. When will you be back?
.
Elizabeth ➡ Tomorrow I think.
.
Dave ➡ Well, I was hoping to take you out somewhere special if you agree that is.
.
Elizabeth ➡ Of course I agree.. (giggles) Oh baby.. We’re officially a couple now and we’ll be going on our first date.. Ohh, I’m excited.. Should I bring guns?
.
Dave ➡ No, no guns please.. I just want you. The whole you.
