Tyrone grabbed the landline off the desk. “Get in here.”
Jimmy’s heart skipped a beat at the command. He scurried into the boss’s office, only to a dead cellphone lying on the ground, its screen dark and shattered.
Tyrone was standing by the window, his back to Jimmy, his tie discarded carelessly on the ground. Without turning around, he said, “Get me a new phone.”
Jimmy felt a chill go down his spine. The big man was on the warpath again.
“Sure, sure.” he stammered.
“Did you sort out that house at Harmony Retreat like I asked?”
Jimmy nodded vigorously,“All set.”
“The keys.”
“You’ll have them tomorrow.”
Tyrone turned slowly, “I want them, now.”
The cold and stern look in Tyrone’s eyes nearly brought Jimmy to his knees.
Despite Tyrone’s composed exterior, those who knew him well understood the storm that was raging inside.
“Right away,” Jimmy quickly said. “I’ll bring them to you, right away.”
Once outside, Jimmy took a deep breath. Working for the boss was like waiting for a volcano to erupt, especially recently. It was like dealing with a relentless force of nature that refused to let up.
Half an hour later, drenched in sweat, Jimmy handed the keys over to Tyrone.
“Get a renovation crew. I need them to start immediately,” Tyrone took the keys and demanded.
Jimmy just nodded, “Yes.”
He didn’t know what Tyrone was planning, but he did know better than to ask questions.
