Lies beneath the truth

Chapter Seven

Just as soon as Amanda left his office. He called his superior General MacArthur to let him know the bait had been taken to have Lee to fly overseas with the group to examined the territory outside of Tehran, Iran and other key military locations. Dialing the special number connecting to the State department, he waited a moment before someone was able to pick up.

Billy looked out the door to see Francine leave to head on home to get ready for her under cover job at the cocktail bar as Bunny. She still wasn't happy about the assignment. Listening to the music on the other end of the call until finally ..."General MacArthur speaking, Billy what's the word on the operation?"

"Progressing nicely Don, the meeting went really well as the group took the bail to have my agent Lee Stetson to fly with them to Tehran, Iran and search the military key locations. I gave an excuse that I needed to stay back in the states with several key meetings that I need to attend while Lee is gone from the office." Billy announced with his throat dry all of a sudden and needing some cold water from the pitcher that was sitting behind him.

"Excellent Billy, I will contact my sources overseas to be ready for them sometime during the week. Otherwise I have released further classified documents for you and Lee to take and give to the group. Just let Lee know that for now on that the operation is going to get further dangerous, along with yourself Billy Blue Note." He stated with a slight chuckle over the phone from his office of the State department.

"Understand Don." Billy hung up the phone to take a deep breath and letting it out with the stress further building in his body. Looking at the time, he really needed to go on home early for a change. Even though Francine should be in place soon at her under cover position.

Francine Desmond just couldn't believe she was doing this again to help Lee and Billy out with the case for IFF. She had finished dressing into the costume she wore the other night meeting Lee. Placing a little bit more rouse and lipstick. She was set for the evening and into the morning. She was asked to do a double once again hopefully she won't have to be bothered with trying to pleased the customers.

Grabbing her weapon, I.D. and other elements she will be needing for the evening. She was all set to go with placing a coat on not one of her fancy attire. Walking out the front door of her apartment, she had parked her vehicle with-in the underground parking lot...She felt cold as she headed for the parking lot while checking around with being tailed.

Thirty minutes later she made it to the cocktail bar of the Comfort Inn hotel that Lee Stanton is staying. She noticed him walking around alone with no one hanging around him. He took the elevator back up to his room to change for the evening.

Meanwhile Francine aka Bunny signed in with the log and her supervisor waiting in the back of the kitchen changing into his uniform before going to check the office and the money receipts. "Bunny, are you ready for this evening?"

Stopping in her tracks in front of the older man in his late forties with some grey with sideburns. "Ready as ever sugar!" She smirk to give him the hint that she might be looking for something else other then working. "I have better get started boss before I am late for my long shift."

"I heard that Katherine called out again, I will need to do something about that woman before she has the chance to screw me again with the job. Go ahead and go work and make lots of tips." He responded with a slight chuckle before moving into his office.

Otherwise Francine felt sick to her stomach having to deal with this man in the first place. She grabbed an order booklet and set of pens to write the orders on the order booklet. Afterwards she headed inside to begin her shift...

Colonel Baker had asked Anson and a few others from the group to enjoy themselves for the evening before they have to leave the states in a few days to Tehran, Iran. They were going to see on whether Lee Stanton would be coming down into the cocktail bar.

Bunny had seen the group walked into the bar asking for seats. She was assigned their table as she needed to finished dropping her the drinks at another table. She turned her head to notice Lee walking in alone, when he noticed his new found friends with the group.

Lee walked over to them to say hello for a moment since he was going to sit at the bar for a change. "How's it going this evening?" He asked with Anson looked up to see him looking smart in his blue suit.

"Great! We are looking to relax with a few drinks and food. You?" Anson asked with his friends looking at Bunny coming over to take their orders.

"Same Anson, hopefully I will be able to get lucky." He replied with a smirk and than looked at Bunny.

She just simply avoided him after the previous time with slapping him in the face. "I have better go to the bar and place my drink order." He said with moving away slowly while Bunny moving closer to the table.

"Gentlemen are you ready to order with your drinks?" She asked with placing her order book into her hand.

"Actually I am, I will have a Gin & tonic with an order of Chicken in the basket." Anson responded with a slight wink towards her.

"I will have a whiskey with the same order of Chicken in the basket." Harrison says age 31 and has been with the group from the very beginning.

"Ok, and the last man in the corner. How can I help you this evening?" Bunny moved over to him as he will say...

"I will just need two drinks of Dry martini's and no food, however I would like to have a dance with you later if possible?" Samuels asked even though he had a feeling she wasn't going to go for the dance.

"Sorry sir, It's against the rules of this Cocktail bar, and besides I am working a double this evening, my boss needs me to be on the floor taking orders. I will not be able to take any long breaks. If you will excuse me, I will go processed these orders for you." She walks away...

"Watch me change her mind later?" Samuels says to the group with them chuckling at the idea...
