The Magnificent Cat, Nadia Ramadan [free romance novels TXT] 📗

Ray replied in relief 

 

James walked to the verandah and saw everyone from far away busy doing their job outside. James walked into the building ready to head to the secretive room.

The building was empty when James walked in; he was indeed willing and eager to hear Armand side of the story, what was his point of view?

Just as James was walking to the elevator leading to the secretive room, he saw Wade standing right in front of the elevator

"Where do you think you are going?" Wade asked as he looked at James seriously

"I am going upstairs to ask Armand about something" James replied angrily "I don’t have time nor feel like explaining things to you"

"That’s it, James" Wade shouted "We are having a meeting today and Armand is very busy and clearly not willing to see you"

"Why do you care? Why don’t you go mind your own business"

"I am" Wade continued annoyingly "in case you didn’t notice, Armand, the secretive room, the Magnificent Cat are my business, James"

"you mean you got no life" James said smilingly as he looked at Wade "you know I am not really in the mood to stand here and talk to you all day, I will just leave now and somehow later on today, I will go back up to the so called secretive room and piss the shit out of Armand"

"Fuck you" Wade said sharply as he looked at James angrily and with rage. All the annoyance, James’s behavior and Lisa’s words were going though his head and driving him crazy.

"I will be back" James said to Wade as he walked off.

 

All of a sudden Wade walked behind him and pushed James with a great anger.

James fell on the ground without knowing what hit him; he turned back and saw Wade looking back at him.

"You shouldn’t have done that" James said as he woke up from the ground

"But I just did" Wade replied annoyingly as he looked at James.

"I know, you just shouldn't had" James said as he took off his jacket to start a fight.

Wade started to remove his jacket as well, but before he can finish doing that, James grabbed him and threw him to the ground.

 

"Did you hear something?" Ray asked Armand as they continued to prepare for the meeting.

Armand stood still for few seconds and then said "no, I did not hear anything, why don’t you just help me finish cleaning this place up before Mr. Herbert comes"

"Sure" Ray said angrily as he rolled his eyes.

 

"You like that" James taunted as he looked at Wade on the ground.

Wade woke up angrily just to punch James fatally on the face. James pitched backward and smacked his head on the table's edge.

"Ouch" he shouted lowly as he woke up again. James took a few steps forward and started punching Wade, his arms seemed to move quicker than his thought, he felt Wade's ribs break and heard his jaw-bone cracked, he did that continuously until Wade yanked backwards and slid down the wall.

All of a sudden Wade woke up to continue hitting. James staggered back; surprised by the force of the blow Wade strikes on him. Wade took out all his anger and gave James a hard blow bearing down on him like a missile. James fell to the ground and rolled away.

"Damn it…!" he grunted, and rolled again to avoid a well-aimed kick from Wade. Cat-like, he leapt back up to grab anything, but there was nothing on the main hall's table.

"Where, where are you going?" Wade asked tiredly 

James continued to gaze around the room without saying anything. Wade followed up his advantage, breathing hard; in quick succession he landed several more kicks at James's back. 

 

"I think I heard something again downstairs" Ray said as he looked at Armand seriously 

"Like what?" Armand questioned annoyingly "because it might be Mr. Herbert's footsteps, meaning that we are not even ready for the meeting with our papers flying around the office!"

"Relax Armand" Ray said angrily "you seem scared, this meeting is not going to blow! Mr. Herbert will hire the Magnificent Cat for 4 hours and $7,000,000; nothing is going to stop that!"

"I hope so" Armand replied as he continued to prepare his own desk.

 

James couldn’t handle the beating anymore, he turned around and kicked Wade hardly against the wall. Wade hits the wall and stared at James angrily.

"That’s it?" James taunted "that’s all you got?" 

"Not really" Wade replied 

James walked closer to him and continued hitting him, he wasn't taking any chances, using enough energy power to continue the fight, Wade reach out blindly from behind and grabbed an old picture frame that was lying on the ground, he then picked it up angrily and hits it hard across James's head.

James turned away putting his hand on his head and bending over as if he were in terrible pain.

Wade stopped hitting and looked at him seriously; he somehow felt sorry and looked closely at James.

"Are you…?" Wade asked as he continued to look closely at James.

"Step away from me!" James shouted "go away!"

For a second or two Wade can somehow see James's eyes turned into colors, it was greenish yellow which somehow look like a cat.

“Oh my God, is everything ok?”

“I said stay away” James shouted as he grabbed Wade all of a sudden and raised him from the ground.

"You piss the hell out of me" James shouted with rage "I can't take you anymore!"

He raised him higher and placed him hardly on the main hall's table.

Wade can hear his back cracked after the strong hit and shouted loudly right after it.

 

"I heard something" Armand said as he finally heads to the iron door

"I told you" Ray said as he followed him to the door "you just won't listen to me"

Both Armand and Ray heads to the elevator and down to the main hall. 

 

At the main hall just as Armand and Ray arrived, to their surprises all what they saw was Wade lying on the table and James on top of him throwing punches.

"Stay away from him" Armand shouted as he approached them 

"What the hell is going on here?" Ray shouted 

 

All the entire staff outside the building heard the noise and ran to see what was going on in the main hall. Every one entered the building and saw both James and Wade fighting while Armand tries to stop them.

Nick ran to grab James and part him away from Wade, while Armand on the other side helped Wade get off the table.

"Are you ok?" Armand asked Wade nicely

"Yes I am fine" Wade replied as he stood up 

"Are you sure?" Ray asked with an overprotective manner

"I said I am fine!" 

 

"Let go off me" James shouted as he freed himself from Nick and ran straight to Wade to continue hitting him.

"Hey!" Nick shouted as well as all the other staff in the building, but this time both Armand and Ray pushed James away from Wade.

James is now thrown back by Armand and Ray as well as everyone else. Every staff in the building held James back and far away from Wade as if he was a fierce animal.

"Let me go!" James shouted loudly "get off me!"

"Don’t let go of him!" Armand shouted at the staffs that are holding James back "take him outside”

"Leave me alone!!" James shouted even loudly 

"Just get out James!" Armand shouted back at him

“Just get out James!”

“Just get out James!”

Armand voice echoed over and over in his head. 

James rage grew even angrier when he heard the words Armand said, he struggled strongly just to let go of all the staffs that are holding him behind, he finally let go of them and climbed up the hall's gigantic table where he stood there staring at everyone.

"Hey get him!" Ray ordered the staffs including Lewis. 

James took off his small protection gun from his pocket and placed it on his own head.

"Is that what you want, Armand!" James shouted loudly for everyone to hear him "Is that what you want!?"

"Calm down James" Armand said nervously "please don’t do that"

"Please?" James repeated "are you begging me now?"

Armand turned and saw everyone in the room starring quietly at them.

"James, listen to me" Armand said calmly "just put the gun down, you are not thinking straight"

"If he wants a hole in his head, just let him get a hole on his head" Ray shouted 

"Shush" Armand said angrily to Ray "we don’t want things to get messy here"

"Is that true" James continued "is that the real reason why you don’t want me to blow my fucking brains off!"

"Stop it, James" Armand shouted "Stop it! Just drop the gun we can talk this over"

"Well, start talking!" James said still holding the gun on his head "I don’t have all day, to tell you the truth I am sick and tired of my situation here in this fucked up business, maybe I should end all of this, right here right now!"

Lewis walked slowly from behind and tasered James shockingly. James fired the gun just as the electricity passes through his body.

All what everyone could hear was a loud shot. The bullet however missed James's head and went up the chandelier.

James fell on the ground unconsciously and dropped the gun.

"What!" Armand shouted "oh my God, what did you do?"

"He is fine" Lewis said annoyingly "you asked him to stop, he wouldn’t stop, and I had to do something"

Armand walked closer to Lewis and said "do you have any idea what you just did"

"I tasered him" Lewis replied "what's the big deal?"

"He had a gun to his head" Armand shouted "you almost killed him!"

"Relax Armand" Ray said seriously "James got it coming anyways"

"I wished I did kill him" Lewis said annoyingly as he smiled "he was a pain in the ass"

Armand turned to Lewis direction and picked up his shot gun.

"Armand what are-" Wade shouted but before he could finish talking Armand fired one shot straight onto Lewis's head, blowing his brains all over the place.

"What the Hell!" Ray shouted loudly

Everyone else in the room stood there in shock of what just happened.

"Oh my God" Joe said as he looked at the blood on the floor and splashed all over the wall.

"I want everyone to stop doing their jobs today" Armand said calmly "your jobs today is to clean up this mess, I want this place cleaned as if nothing happened"

"Sure boss" Nick replied sharply

"And I want you to take James back to his room" Armand said as he walked away

"Armand what have you done!" Ray shouted as he followed him "have you realized that you killed a Police, a Damn Police!"

"So what…?" Armand replied "we can cover it up"

"The entire force of Bevin will be behind our back" Ray shouted

"No they won't" Armand replied "they won't even know he is dead, we have the Magnificent Cat, remember?"

"So…?" Ray asked

"So we can use the Magnificent Cat on his wife and say he travelled to Hawaii or something" Armand answered "my goodness, don’t you know the trick already?"

"Sure, sure" Ray replied angrily

"While everyone cleans up this mess, Ray, Wade, follow me to the secretive room now! We have a meeting to proceed, let's go!" Armand ordered

"Right away" Ray said as he followed Armand

Wade stood there still in shock of everything that happened earlier, had no choice but to follow Armand to the secretive room.

 

Armand, Ray and Wade walked into the secretive room and closed the second iron door behind them. 

"What the hell was that?" Armand asked angrily as he looked at Wade "I can expect a foolish behavior like that from James, but you? You are way smarter than that!"

"You are talking about me?" Wade shouted

"Yes you!" Armand replied "first there were drugs, then fights!"

"Listen to me, Armand" Wade said angrily "I am not the one who fired a loyal employee, hired a person I barely know about, and not to mention shot a police officer in the head!"

"Shut up!" Armand shouted

"No" Wade shouted back "you are not the Armand
