THE GANGSTERS MAIDEN - Chapter 66

Arriane looks at her uncle David trying to read his mind.

Arriane: Uncle…. what do you mean dangerous??? You know very well that all my missions are dangerous and I am trained for that.

David: I know, but I also know that you are tired, you’ve been through a lot during your last mission, I am aware of everything that you did there, including the attacking of the Taliban’s territory and camp-based. You know very well that Mikhael is one of my contacts.

Arriane: I know, but what does it have to do with this new mission??? I’m aware that every mission is dangerous but I am always ready and prepared whatever the outcome is… I am trained for it, however hard it is.

David: You are trained… yes…. you are prepared… yes…..

But we are not….. me and your Dad. We know how risky this mission is, that person is a lunatic he tortured and killed every person that they caught. And he hired a bunch of mercenaries and an expert lady bodyguard.

Arriane: So??? Am I that weak to you??? I managed to get out of Afghanistan and the Taliban’s terrorist territory alive, what’s the difference with taking another dangerous mission??? Besides, why do you ask my dad to call me and to come over if you don’t want me to take this mission???

David: ah… I…. just want to hear your opinion that’s all…..

Arriane: ????????????

Uncle, I don’t know what’s your point….. but if you want me to take this mission but you’re worried about me??? please don’t….

David stood up and walk to the filing cabinet, he took out a thick file and put it on top of the table in front of Arriane.

David: these are the profile information of your next target. If you ask me, I really don’t want you to take this mission, but I know how you would react if you heard about this. So I asked your father to call you first, hoping you would decline.

Arriane took the file and flip through the pages. After reading a few lines she stood up and kissed both her father and her uncle on the cheek before she turns to leave.

Arriane: Dad I’ll call you tonight if I’m going to take this mission, if I didn’t call you, you can give this mission to the other agents.
