Chapter 78

Bonnie and Jim had only exchanged a brief look, but a vigilant Ivor caught it.

“Here you go.” Ivor opened the car door for Bonnie.

“Thanks.” Bonnie slid into the passenger’s seat.

Jim watched as the car drove off into the distance. He didn’t avert his gaze until they vanished from his sight completely.

Floyd leaned on his shoulder in a friendly manner and said, “It’s a good thing you were quick. Otherwise, it would have been a mess.”

“I’m Ms. Bonnie’s bodyguard. It’s my duty.”

“The night’s still young. Want to go for some kebabs?” Floyd said to Jim.

“That won’t be necessary.”

“Don’t worry about the money. You’re the new hire. It’s my duty to look after you. You might not know it, but I like you a lot. Come on. Let’s go.” Floyd started to drag Jim away.

“Did you sense that too?” Floyd asked.

Jim continued walking. “Don’t give anything away.”

“About a minute ago.” Jim knew what was on his mind.

“Do you think they’re here because of you or me?” He asked.

“Looks like they’re hitmen.” Floyd said, his back to Jim.

“Exactly.” Jim could tell as well.

“They’re after Tim.‘ Floyd thought to himself. Who in the world wanted Tim dead?

Floyd hadn’t gotten his job as Ivor’s bodyguard by being slow on the uptake. He could guess just who was behind this attack.
