Chapter 7
Hours after they had landed back in New York, Hannah felt as if her world was about to change forever. She waited in the black tinted Bentley with Andre and Gustav. Neither said a word. Gustav’s phone beeped and he glanced at it then nodded to Andre.
“Let’s go,” Andre said. She saw that Andre had adjusted a holster in his left breast pocket.
Holy hell! Both men were armed. This was the closest she’d ever gotten to anyone with a firearm, not counting a cop of course.
Andre escorted Hannah out of the Bentley and they all made their way inside the luxury hotel. All the way up inside the glass elevator neither of them breathed a word. It was like a scene out of some James Bond movie anticipating the real action to take place very soon.
Gustav exited the elevator first followed by Hannah then Andre behind her closely guarding her. Gustav looked around before swiping his card key into suite 900.
“Now what?” Hannah said, breathless. The tension was unbearable. She could hardly breath without taking shallow breaths.
“Now, you do nothing but keep quiet, Hannah.” Gustav instructed.
“The person we’re expecting will be here soon to hand over payment for the job that they believe is done.”
“I see. You are to show her some sort of proof that I am no longer around and she will pay you?”
“That’s the plan,” Gustav spoke as he adjusted a device over his gun before placing it back in its holster. Hannah guessed it must be a silencer.
“Does this person have a name?”
“Brigitte,” Gustav said as she peered out at the window as if looking for something on the street below. Hannah noticed that he had one of those secret service ear pieces in his ear. Perhaps he was listening to instructions. Was this Brigitte person here now? Was she about to meet the woman who wanted her dead?
God, she wished she could call her best friend Lucy right now. Lucy probably wouldn’t believe all this crap going on. But then again, Lucy was probably hitting her books right now. Something Hannah should be doing.
“She’s here,” Gustav said as he moved from the window.
“Right. Hannah, I want you to go into the room and don’t come out until I say,” Andre’s deep voice was very controlled.
Hannah nodded and went into the bedroom of the grand suite and closed the door. She sat on the bed then got up and paced, too nervous to relax. So this was what a stakeout felt like? Now she knew for sure that she could never have a career in policing or detective work.
She tried taking deep breaths to calm her rattled nerves. This all seemed like a nightmare. Like a horrible dream. It was all so surreal.
She heard the door of the suite knock. It must be that Brigitte woman. Hannah cracked the door slightly of her bedroom suite to see if she could hear anything when the woman entered or peek at the suspect.
She heard shuffling going on
