READING

John was in a hurry. He was packing before going away to a business conference in Japan. As usual, he was
taking only a few necessary items of clothing and his laptop. He had come back from the office earlier that day
to finish his presentation. Unfortunately, while working, he had fallen into a long deep sleep. And now, shortly
after waking up, he heard his mobile.
‘Ah, good,’ he thought. ‘That must be the company limo. OK, I’m almost done.’ If he got into the car within
a few minutes, David, the limo driver, could easily get John to the airport to catch his flight. He answered
the phone. ‘Hello.’
To his surprise, the voice wasn’t David’s. ‘Mr McKenzie, this is Robert Trent. I work for the Research
and Development Department. I need …’
‘Mr Trent,’ John interrupted him, feeling somewhat annoyed. He tried to sound polite, though. ‘I’m in a hurry.
Could you please contact my assistant in the office so she can arrange for us to meet when I’m back?’
‘This can’t wait, I’m afraid,’ Robert sounded desperate now. ‘I’ve discovered something … I can’t tell you more
on the phone. We must meet!’
It all sounded strange to John, but something in the man’s voice made him wonder. He looked out of the
window. The limousine was just arriving. ‘All right, I can pick you up on my way to the airport so we can talk
in the car.’ They quickly arranged the details for the meeting.
Five minutes later, the limo stopped at a small petrol station in the suburbs of the city and Robert got in.
The car started up again and they went back onto the road. Robert didn’t say anything, just pointed
at the driver. John sighed heavily. Still, he asked David to close the panel between the driver’s seat
and the passenger compartment. ‘Ok, it’s safe now,’ he told Robert. ‘Speak quickly.’
But before Robert had a chance to say anything, a van appeared next to them. The van’s driver turned
suddenly, hitting them and trying to push them off the road. David pushed the breaks really hard. The limo
turned round a few times and finally stopped.
‘Quick!’ shouted Robert. ‘We need to get out of the car!’ As they got out, they could see the van turning
back towards them.
