51. Betrayals
Leandro could not describe what he was feeling right at the moment. "Enzo, I need to know everything there is to find," Leandro uttered with a fierce tone. "Yes, Master," Enzo replied mannerly.The assistant was fully aware that his Master does not like betrayals of any kind. What appeared with Anna and that man, Charles Anderson, somehow showed a faint shadow of the girl turning against her boss. Had it been somebody else involved, Leandro would never hesitate to label Brianna Peters as a traitor and cannot be trusted with his grandson's life. In fear that she will do the same thing she did to her previous Master or employer, one day."I want to know what made her turn against her superior or comrades. From what I see in her, she has more than words to justify her actions," Leandro was not sure if he was trying to convince anyone else than himself with what he said. But Enzo actually has the same thoughts. I

52. Familiar Place
"Tatum, can you turn right on the next corner from here?" Brianna asked. She had been observing the road they were taking as Tatum drove them to where Lucien had ordered. The attentive driver was not expecting Anna's request, so he looked at his boss through the rearview mirror to ask for his consent or whatever his reaction may be.Lucien was feeling the same shock as with Tatum Elliot. "Pull over on the side," Lucien ordered to the driver. Who quickly complied, no questions asked.Lucien turned to look at Anna with perplexed mien."What is it, Anna? Tell me," Lucien eagerly asked, yet with a gentle and worried voice.Brianna felt weird about why her boss would act this way. She scratched her nape and stared at Lucien with an unreadable look on her face. Brianna was not sure if she liked the strange feeling she was having right now. She is not used to being asked about her actions. Her

53. Memory loss
Lucien hurriedly stepped out of the car and with his eyes fixed on Anna, who was waving her hand inviting them to come in, he did not even care if a car he wasn't watching his steps.Tatum, on the other hand, could not decide if he should stay by the gates as a lookout or follow his boss inside to make sure of his safety. But thinking Anna was there, he was also half confident the young Michaelson would be safe. Tatum kept checking for any possibility of having anyone jump out of nowhere to attack them. However, as the area was in the middle of an open field, with the fence that could still see through and through the sides, in and out the yard, he was convinced there was no one else aside from the three of them. The driver bodyguard decided to follow the two inside but not before making a rough check of their surrounding. When he felt satisfied, he followed Lucien through a wicket door on the gate. The pillars on the gates were big enough to store thin

54. Raiding the Kitchen
"I think, since this is my home, how about I check the kitchen for anything we can eat before going back to your place?" Brianna asked. She will still have to go with Lucien as his personal bodyguard to protect him for twenty-four hours until she is sure no one is after him anymore. She knew she shot that mercenary leader only an inch to his heart, but since he had minions around him, the possibility of attempts to attack her client was still on the table."Well, I won't say no to that," Lucien readily agreed. "I can head out to the kitchen and see what we can have for dinner while you get whatever you need.""Okay, then. I will be out there with you as soon as I find them. Just don't put my house on fire, okay?" Brianna replied while looking around the collection room, then headed out to what she supposed as her bedroom- the last one they haven't checked by the end of the hall on the second floor.Lucien did not stay in the room e

Naughty Thought
"How is dinner going?" Brianna asked as soon as she saw his back from the distance as she headed towards the kitchen."I'm still looking for everything," Lucien replied with a distressed voice. He was not familiar with the whole area, so he did not know where to find things he needed.Brianna held his hand and led him to a stool by the kitchen island."Will you please sit here and wait?" she commented, patronizing the young Michaelson. "I am confident I can do the task more efficiently." She felt confident that though her brain could not process the task to remember things, her body seemed to be working according to whatever she needed to do. Lucien had no choice but follow. He sat there with his hands cupping his jaw, elbows on top of the marble island, pouting in grievances. Tatum walked around the widows, checking for possible situations outside. He was being alert for whatever may happen. A group of mercenaries was after them.

56. Rescue Plans
The call got connected, and just like Jack had ordered firmly, Blake did not make any sound. He even covered the mouthpiece to make sure no sound would be heard from his side for the one calling Charles Anderson's phone. "Why the fuck are your men too slow?! Why is that fucking old man Michaelson's grandson still not in my hand!?" A throaty barking voice pierced Blake's eardrums. Blake remained silent. He was trying to check if he would get to recognize whose voice he was listening to. But no matter how he checked his sharp memory, he could not point anyone among people he knew or could consider as might ever be, even for as weak as a guess. "Make sure to tell your men not to disappoint me, or I will be the one to shoot their families in between their eyes, one by one!" The call was cut off right away. Blake Gordon was shocked to hear the last words the caller said. "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" He cursed a

57. Panicked Jack
The group moved with speed. They left Charles to the man working as the cashier on the convenience store on the ground floor of their building. The guy was someone they helped and rescued by chance that he was too grateful. He served as cashier and also a lookout on their place when they were out on a mission. They asked him to look after Charles, and if anything happens, he has to call for them, not anyone else. They were already in the car, but their conversation with Jack Foster did not end. They stayed connected as Jack guided them on what to do and where to go. Only Jack knew where Brianna's place was, so they needed his directions.Jack gave the location of where their families were being held as hostages. Blake will know who to appoint studying the possible route to get in and out of the place with less danger. They can only expect for less because the chance of having a safe one was off the table.

58. Considering Propositions
Brianna did not say anything. She did not cut the call either. Lucien was still holding the phone in his hand. The latter was not sure of what to do. He wasn't sure of what to say either. His mind was busy thinking about the identity of this caller. This Jack Foster indeed sounded desperate and panicked. Lucien also noticed how the man would call her with different names like B, Brie, and Brianna. "Brie, please... give your men a chance to talk to you in person. You will see any shade of doubt if there is when you see them up close. They are unarmed, I swear on my mother's grave!" Jack pleaded. He felt more frightened when Brianna took out a digital gadget from the drawer on a side table below the family portrait. Brianna let her instincts lead her and opened a drawer with a tablet-like screen. She turned the gadget on and it showed her different positions of traps set around the place."You know what I am looking at?" Asked Brianna to

59. Autocratic Demeanor
The team members sat crossed legs on the floor around the coffee table. Blake ordered Finn to report what he was able to know about the area and showed the map to Brianna. Lucien and Tatum were watching behind, standing next to the sofa chairs. Brianna remained in her seat ever since she spoke to the team. Blake called each one with anything to report and presented what they have for Boss B to understand what the mission is expected to be like.Ramil Finn was to run down the details of the routes they were supposed to take.Andrew Hoggins was assigned to prepare the weapons they should prioritize to carry. Max Beckett was assigned to take a sniper post to secure the clearance of their entry. They have to be discrete as much as possible. Having someone who can see the situation ahead of them, even a step only, would be very much beneficial. The rest of the team will have to deal with on-the-spot scenarios. Brianna raised a single eyebrow. She noticed these

60. Comply or Disobey
"Sir, where do you think you're going?" Brianna asked Lucien with a frown as he tried to climb up the rental jet the group could provide through the help of the old Michaelson. "I am going with you, don't worry, I am not diving. I just want to see as much as possible and make sure you are safe," Lucien decisively answered. But he was blocked by the girl he was dead set on keeping safe."Negative, sir," Brianna replied firmly. "You have to stay here and be safe. They are after you, remember? Going with us is like giving yourself to them in a way.""No, I am going with you," Lucien tried to pass through the girl, but he was startled when she held him with a tight grip on his arm. "If you make things difficult for me, I will quit this job with you, right here, right now," Brianna made her voice casual. It was as if she was talking about something as simple as choosing a channel to watch on tv. The men on diving
