1. Royal Flush Ch 10
And she was robbed. They not only turned the flat upside down, her laptop, her phone, in fact, a
piece of computer hardware was gone. On the other hand, her wallet and its contents were left
unchanged. Once he got himself as straight as possible went to a phone booth on the corner and
called the office. Unlike the conventional protocol that was given directly to Angus.
"Look here, now! Do not care what time it is, get your ass on the train to get here." that all but
shouted down the phone at her. "Meeting my office once."
She made her way to the station and catch the next train, and it was not long before they came into
office. When she got to her desk, her computer was missing and her drawers were emptied. She
went and found Andrea, whose desk was also minus his PC.
"Have you ..." he began Tamsin, but Andrea nodded.
"Come on, Angus awaits us. Do not know what he did, but ... okay, let's wait and see."
Together they made their way to the office Angus, where Tim Ewing was already present. He left
them and locked the door behind them.
"The story is dead. Dead as the Dodo, deader than dead. Norwegian parrots have nothing on this. It's
dead. Is it clear?"
"Yes," chorused.
"It's so dead that never happened. If you have something, anything, in the last few weeks and then
destroy it completely and utterly." Tamsin never seen Angus looking so scared. Come to that, never
seen him looking scared at all, but there was no doubt that he is afraid of something. "And what's
more, you do not need anyone, ever. This is the secret, you have the grave., If one word of this gets
out, a single word, if there is the slightest whisper then it will not only you, all four of us .... < br />
"Hey, let's just assume that all four of us had a morning visits. I have no idea what the hold they
have over you, and I'm sure as heck do not want you to know .... but the story ends here, in this
room, just the four of us. never happened, it never happened at all. agree? "
There was no disagreement.
But Angus had not really need to emphasize everything. Although no one giving any details, it would
seem that everyone had visitors in the morning and, although he was the only one who was
"persuaded" to drop the story, the other three were quite afraid to report. It was not entirely clear
what holds you over Angus, but it had to be big. They were shaken and afraid, but for him, he
seemed to have a different dimension.
Now he's trying to acknowledge his authority, be a large hard man, there is Andrea and Tamsin, so
that is quiet, but he was still naked pussy compared to what Tamsin has passed this morning.
"OK, so you two leaves without a story to work on. For starters, you have the rest of the week off.
Fuck off home and I'll be back here on Monday morning. Until then, you can learn all you can about
2. boy bands. Seeing as you two work so well together you stick together as a team and I got a good
story. This is the line on the X Factor finalists, a nice piece of juicy gay action. seems that everything
is not as it seems. "
".. I will do it," said Tamsin, impressed with his own courage.
"What do you mean, you do that?"
"I ... I've had enough. I came into this business to inform, to try the offender. Did not do it to expose
peoples private lives. Who cares if they are involved in the X Factor is gay or not. Everybody we
know is It played well. I've had enough, enough of all this muck raking. "
"What the fuck planet are you from Tell! Discover wrongdoers!. Nobody gives a shit what you care
about. This is what our readers are interested, that counts and it does not matter if they are involved
in the X Factor is gay or not. This is what they want to read. This is what sells newspapers that pays
wages.'s too hard to understand? "
"In that case, I had enough of ruining people's lives just to sell newspapers. What people do in their
private life should remain that private."
"Private Fuck, they're crazy, or what?"
"I'm sorry, I just can not do anything more. As I said, I've had enough. Leave I have some owes me,
and some time off in lieu of overtime I'm putting these in, so you can take the place of notice."
"You can not just walk away. If you ...."
"What? Never work in newspapers again sometime?"
"Do not push it to the sun, now is not the time. If you leave ...."
"Just watch me go."
***********
Six months later
***********
It was a long hard day. Seats at the checkout to PennySavers were the kindest and Tamsin had to
deal with the usual range of dissatisfied customers. Why is it that those who pay at least seems to
require the most. Yet, when all was said and done, at least it was work.
Life was pretty hard because she is so cavalierly throw out their work on a daily sleaze. It was hard
to find a job, and there was nothing that could match the wages are used to earn. What made it
harder was that Angus refuses to give a reference, and that was not helping in the least.
PennySavers had it on minimum wage, and it is quite clear that it would be grateful for the privilege
of working for them. With this drastically reduced intake had to give up her apartment and her car
and come back with their parents; It was all he could afford.
Still, at least she slept at night, well, ever. There have always been those dreams, dreams involving
3. .... No, no, no! I have to go.
She got off the bus, and as it turned Sunnyhill Road, realized a large black sedan that after it, keep
up five meters behind. She quickened her pace quickening. She slowed down, and it did well. It was
trying to be discreet; It will scare her. Her heart sunk; nowadays had every reason to be paranoid.
She would keep part of the deal. She's not a word, not to anyone, anyone at all. If, however, Andrea,
or Angus, or even Tim Ewing was stupid .... Angus suggested that if any of them said all four were
for the high jump. Her heart began to pound and started to run, but you can not run a car. It's to
keep up with her for a while and then accelerated only develop in front of her, where two men got
out. She sighed resignedly and stopped. There was no point running more, it makes no sense at all.
She was delivered to the rear of the car and all but mandatory to put the hood over his head.
However, it was not much no such thing as rugged as the last lot. They have also been limited by
hand, even though he was under no illusions that this meant that he was able to escape, or
something like that. They it is not restricted, because there was no need.
It was quite a drive before he finally stopped. She was then helped out of the car and drive, quite
gently, up some steps and into the building. That was a hell hole she was in recently. There was a
floor rug and place smelled of furniture polish. She was led to a chair and asked politely to sit.
"OK, boys. Thanks.'ll Take it from there."
Tamsin heart skipped a beat. She should know that voice anywhere! Princess Charlotte! Charlie! The
cover was removed, and there she was, standing before her, holding file.
"Well, well, well, little Susan, or that it would actually be Tamsin Phillips? Pretty little viper in the
grass, not you."
At the moment Tamsin stared at Charlie and then her head dropped.
"You know, I really thought it was some sort of connection between us, some link, some ... you
laughed as hard as I have for you. Was your plan? Was part of your property. To get me .... So what?
"
"No, I never planned that I never planned it all!"
"And why should I believe? Everything else you said was a lie. Well, apart from their parents, who
live in Sunnyhill Road in Streatham. South Africa! Hah! They've never been farther south than
Benidorm.
"And as for the rest .... Well, you had me fooled, I'll give you that. Remember opens his heart out
there on the moor? Like it? Like you, what an idiot I was, what a naive idiot . But then, you're
negotiating on it all together, right? "
Tamsin reply. She had no words.
"So, how does it feel to be out of work? Oh, I know that you are working on the checkout
PennySavers, but it does not work for the likes of you. How the mighty have fallen, eh? Tell me, why
did you leave the daily dirty?"
"I had editorial differences."
4. "Is that what you call them. Asked you quite a lot of places, but none of them in journalism. Wonder
why that is." Charlie tossed to and fro through the file. "Those who are less fortunate than you. I
think that Angus gave Mockers on this one by one. Consider, by one hundred and thirty working and
not so much as a whisper. Hard times, hard times indeed."
Tamsin still just sitting there. Charlie deserved this anger, and she deserves this story off. Nothing
would come back, what happened and there was nothing really to say.
"Sure, you wondered who it was that blew the whistle to get your little program found? Oh, are
you?"
"Sometimes," said Tamsin.
"And your thinking, come to any conclusions? I mean, how many were in the picture. Angus,
certainly not, Tim Ewing? Do not see that one either. Must Emma, ​​sorry, sorry, that's
Andrea. I think it no one else left, is there? "
"I do not know."
"Would not you?
"I do not really know."
"The thing is, you're not the only one who got to thinking and, unlike you, I have contacts, contacts
that you can find things. Starting with the current tip off. This came from a Gmail account opened
only one e-mail . Opened, e-mail sent, and then nothing. course, anyone can open a Gmail account
easy peasy, and totally untraceable.
"Or that's what I thought. Guys tell me otherwise. Seem to have ways to determine the location of
the computer that was used to open the account. Very clever, those facilities boy. Did not take long,
either. Turned out that was open to the public terminal in the lobby Flyaway Inn in Croydon, you
know, the one next to Gatwick airport. "
"I've never been there."
"Have you? Maybe you should try it sometime., We went there and asked the staff, but you know
what it is. Turnover is high and who remember one person from the time before the whole time. On
the other hand, it seems to keep CCTV Footage. Here's another that much interest. these things are
always a little blurry, but you can see quite clearly someone who works at one of the terminals at the
bar. Here, look. "
Charlie gave a picture, but a man wearing a sweatshirt with a hood that covered his face. It could be
anyone.
"And here's one from the parking lot. Same figure got into a Ford Fiesta. Did not you used to own
one of these? SPZ is a little blurry, but you can only read. What do you think?"
She handed the other still from CCTV. Tamsin stared at him. It was blurry, but there was no
mistaking what it turned out.
"Now, Andrea was busy in Barnet that night, Angus was at a party in the West End, Tim Ewing was
5. at home with his family. Idea who the girl was in a hotel, Tamsin, or should I say puppygirl1986?"
Tamsin stared at the carpet. She did not remain a secret. She felt more naked than she ever did,
even undress. Charlie knew everything.
Charlie put the file and squatted before Tamsin so that the heads were at.
"Thank you, Tamsin, thank you."
"I do not deserve your thanks. Ought to hate me, hate me, really. Was a Phase What you used?
Bloodsucking vultures? Yeah, I'm one of them."
"Oh, I hate you. Believe me, I hate you. Thought you were the worst of the worst, as you weedled
their way in, get my confidence. Everything a little girl lost've played so well. Oh yeah, while I
worked that you are number one on my list of hate, but it never completely true. And then there
were the pictures on the USB Flash Drive. Why you, why there? Eventually, I started to think you
were really that good an actress, I was really was not completely fooled. And then, when I got a boy
to do a little digging for me, well, it had to be you, right? Who else is going to blow life chances to
save his reputation and that of my friends. Angus? Andrea? Tim Ewing? do not think so. There was
only one person it could be, and I owe her everything. "
"You do not really have to.'m Sorry, I'm so so so sorry," Tamsin broke down. "I should have said no,
than it began. Should not have agreed to it in the first place."
"If they are, should'S could be me. Maybe you should never agree to that, but if you had, then we
would never have met. And if we are not satisfied, then we would never do that," he leaned Charlie
forward and kissed Tamsin. At the moment Tamsin fought. He still felt guilty so very guilty, but it
seemed that mattered to Charlie. And then she could not fight it any more. They melted into each
other and hugged tightly, after a very long time, Charlie pulled back and looked at Tamsin.
"I love you, you know. I think I've done since that day in Bedfordshire and Scotland ...."
"I love you too.'m So glad I do not have to lie any more. I'm sorry Charlie, I never lied, never."
Charlie leaned over and kissed her again.
"I think you and I need to be somewhere a little more comfortable, do not you think?"
Tamsin nodded. Charlie got up, took Tamsin's hand and led her into the bedroom. Slowly, gently,
lovingly, that reduced the PennySavers uniform that Tamsin still wore. For it was light T-shirt and
cotton panties and soon joined clothes.
"God, you're beautiful," said Charlie. "I thought so from the first day we met.
"I'm on the machine."
"Kind of suits you, you know, and could not hide his eyes. Then I knew that ... and I think I thought
..."
"Please, no. I hated lying to you."
7. "What is it?"
"Well, your friends ... I know that neither one of us is in great demand to go to one of the young lady
Mary evenings never, but ... well, we are obliged to meet from time to time. Everybody thinks I ' m
Susan Ward. what we tell them? "
"They already know a lot of truth. I had to tell them. I had to explain why Emma Pearson just
disappeared from the face of the earth. Which means that I have to tell them about you as well. They
already know, Susan Ward is not your real name. I'll word around that you are a good guy, and after
that, will just have to accept you. Which is a phrase, love me, love my dog? "
