Chapter 4 - Hospital Visit

Cal didn't waste any time as he made his way over to the hospital. He had finally gotten permission after he received the call from his godfather. Cal wasn't at all in the dark about what Alonzo was planning to do when he informed him he would be meeting with Szymanski last night. He had actually hoped that the plan would go off without a hitch.

After separating themselves from Elias, he knew that the state of HR was dire, especially in the finance department. He had been given updates by Alonzo on a weekly basis as he continued to seek other means to acquire a steady stream of money. Cal had been the one to mention the case of the brothers after coming across the case one day.

He had acquired the file and given to his godfather at his request after he told him about it. From what he got from looking over Cal's research, Alonzo ended up considering the path less traveled. There would be a transfer of the two brothers where Officer Simmons talks to them without raising suspicions and he would give them the details of the deal. The hardest part of the whole plan by far would be trying to get them back on the streets to earn their trust.

Cal had done his fair share of dirty deeds for quite a long time. He had done them for so long that they have become second nature to him. Reviewing the case files for any sort of angle, he found a solution. That was when he discussed the plan to frame the testifying detective on the case. The angle was obviously that if the witness was compromised then the case would be thrown out the window.

Getting a search warrant proved to be quite easy after he paid off one of his CIs to give a fake tip about the detective being on the take. It was just a matter of the pieces falling together which they did. He sent another guy that he knew in the department and organization over to the house with a large sum of cash that he acquired from a recent drug bust.

Everything had gone according to plan. The detective was arrested and it seemed as though his credibility was in question well enough to keep him from making it to court. The only hitch that he didn't expect was that Joss Carter would end up interfering in everything.

He scolded himself for making such a dumb mistake as telling her that he was the detective that made the call. After their rocky conversations these last couple of weeks, she was still on the fence about dating him. When he talked to her in that interrogation room, he saw that look in her eyes. It was the look of someone who was determined to find answers.

It angered him because he knew that she would prove to be a difficult situation. He had been planted nearby to start surveillance on her because of her reputation for having nine lives within the criminal underworld. He had heard the rumors about her mysterious guardian angel that had saved not only her but her son's life in what seemed like the nick of time. He had thought it was all a fairy tale, that no one was that good.

Carter had proven exactly why she needed to be kept a close eye on. To Cal's amazement, she had managed to gather evidence on the detective's innocence. She had convinced the arresting investigator about the origin of the bonds and got the detective's name cleared. She was becoming quite a nuisance. Her combative nature had made things quite difficult as she would stand her ground, even against him. He would try to argue with her, but she wouldn't bend for him at all. She wasn't like any other woman Cal knew.

One look from him and other women would have just bowed down and do his bidding. Carter defied him in every way. This time however enraged him more than anything. If it hadn't been for her and her constant interference, then an alternative plan wouldn't have been put in place to have the deal go through. Everything that they had been working on almost fell apart when the brothers realized that they weren't going to be getting out. Alonzo had told Cal about his new plan which he didn't approve of, but accepted nevertheless, as it was the only other way in the short amount of time that they had.

His godfather told him that no matter what had happened, to wait until he got a call from him. He heard the news about the attack and couldn't help but smile. His godfather went all out and it paid off because the media would think that it was an attempted assassination to try to fluster the mayor. Alonzo would look like a hero while the detective's reputation's was sullied forever. It was a bonus that the man was also killed, thus silencing him and guaranteeing the release of the Russians.

It was so much easier to be on the other side of the law. He really wished that he could have convinced Carter of the mentality. She would be a perfect addition to their organization. Despite everything he had done to get close to her, she wouldn't give herself to him. Cal had become impatient with her. He wouldn't have said it directly to her, but he saw her as a tease. She just acted like she wanted it only to push him away when he tried to oblige.

He couldn't help but get the impression that her mind was somewhere else during the relationship. It was like she was waiting for something, but he couldn't care less what.

It's not like it ever mattered to him. He always had another woman to satisfy him on the side. He only hoped that Carter would keep her mouth shut this time. He was still pissed that Alonzo had to take a bullet because of her interference.

"Hey man, how's it going?" he greeted as he entered Alonzo's private room. He appeared to be preoccupied reading the paper before Cal's arrival.

"Well hello Cal. I do believe that we will not have to be worrying ourselves with the current situation of the Russians." He turned the paper around, showing the headlines. "It looks like things will be continuing as planned."

"I'm glad. I'm assuming that something has been bugging you since you wanted me to come."

"Yes Cal. That woman that we sent you to keep an eye out on, a Detective Jocelyn Carter, we need her to be taken care of."

"To what extent do you want to have this done?" Cal was all business when it came down to a bit of cleaning.

"We want her to meet an unfortunate accident. Elias attempted to take care of her as well before the intervention from this mysterious guardian angel, this guy in a suit."

"I'm sure I can put something together with one of my guys. I have it on good authority that Carter is going to be looking into this case rather closely and will be looking for some tips."

"Then let us provide her with some, shall we? Cal I trust that you will be able to get this done. You and Detective Terney have been quite efficient in your jobs."

"It's all for the greater good. I'm glad that Terney is such a good shot" he said referring to the bandaged shoulder.

"I will be back at work in a couple of days. In the meantime, see that this little matter gets resolved would you?"

"Of course Alonzo, I'll talk to you later when I have something done." He shook his godfather's hand before making a quick exit.

LINE BREAK

As Cal made his exit from the hospital, a person came to his mind on who could do the job. Reaching into his coat pocket while discovering a secluded area, he found his cell phone and dialed a number.

After a few rings, the person on the other end picked up. "Hey Beecher, how's it going?"

"Hey Carl, it's been going okay. I take it you have seen the news."

"Yeah man, it's crazy. Do you have a reason for this social call?"

"As a matter of fact I do. I'm in need of your services. It will be your usual fee of course along with a small bonus."

Cal imagined the man's ears perking up. "Well well, who's the cop that you need to disappear?" He knew Carl's work and giving a bonus told him right away that the job involved an officer.

"Not disappear so much as have a unfortunate accident. I need you to provide a false tip to Detective Carter and take care of the rest."

"You mean that sweet little honey that you've been hanging around with?"

"She's nothing special, just another goody two shoes cop that doesn't know when to keep her nose out of other people's business."

"I see. Well I can think of a really easy way to get rid of her."

"Let me hear it."

After a few minutes of tentative listening, the smile on Cal's face grew wide as he overheard the plan. There was no chance of her getting out of this. Her luck was about to run out.
