27. The Gentleman
Oh, nothing, sir," she replied. "I was just trying to check my memory if they have returned. Thanks for the soup," she answered courteously and ladled some of the food to her plate.
Lucien was convinced she was fine seeing her having the food he suggested she take for breakfast."I see. When you feel better, we will have something more nourishing for you to eat at lunch," he tried to console her as if she might feel she was being denied to eat the other delicious food on the table.Brianna nodded politely to let him know she was okay with anything.Since she was only able to eat the soft food for the morning meal, Brianna was already done, while Lucien was only halfway through his meal. He did not want to be watched, so he ate lightly and decided to have snacks in the office later."Let's go," Lucien wiped his lips before standing from his seat."Boss, you said you will brief me of today's itinerary during breakfast," Brianna quickly stood up to follow him."I fRelated chapters

"Okay, Anna," he smiled inwardly as he really loved the name he made to call her. "So, here is our arrangement..." Lucien started to brief Bianna. He could no longer avoid it as he noticed she had been impatiently staring at him. Not saying anything but obviously waiting for something he felt like he was expected to tell her. She nodded to confirmation. She felt like, "Finally!" but she did not voice her thought out loud. H is still her employer. Although she really needed to know the details of their arrangements, she could not blatantly order him around to tell her whatever she was supposed to know. She just made him feel the urgency of telling her everything there is for her to know. She was feeling like she was walking in blindfolds while waiting for him to speak out. So when he started to open the discussion, she clearly implied that she was all ears. "You are my secretary, so you have to stay around me at all times," Lucien didn't k

"We have to evacuate," Brianna stated. "We have to observe our surroundings and check for possible exits." She spoke while looking around. She was looking for a good spot to hide while they waited for what was going to happen. "Call for back-up, too," Brianna spoke directly to Tatum. She can sense this driver is not just a driver like Lucien, although Lucien didn't even introduce them together. Tatum did as he was told. He found out the guys who were supposed to follow them were blocked just after Tatum made the last turn and was just about to call Tatum to inform him, but the latter made the call right before the team leader could dial a number. They are still waiting for the blocking car, which is a furniture shop delivery truck, to move to the side so they can get through. Brianna, who was on the side and could hear their conversation spoke. "Tell the others to move on foot. But be cautious. We don't k

"Let's go! Let's go!" Brianna motioned Tatum to move out of the car. She cannot use her door as it is the side where their enemies can see if they make a sudden move. The mercenaries could easily move back with their car to the defenseless side where their target was and finish the job efficiently. Brianna and the two men with her had to use the same way they got into the minivan, so she told the driver to move out. Then she will follow, and Lucien will be the last to come out. "We have to move back to our car," Brianna answered as she saw the two men were quite baffled why she was commanding Tatum to get off the car. "We will be able to move faster with a bigger car, unlike this one. Hurry up. We have to make good use of our men's diversion!" She was now literally pushing Tatum to move. And the driver quietly and quickly complied. The three moved as fast as they could, and this time she decided to take the

Tatum did as Brianna asked. He made his way in between the front seats to do as she ordered. “I can guide you where to go,” Tatum mentioned as he typed in the address. “I need to see different routes possible so we can lose them on the way. That’s why I need the navigation guide. Unless you are confident you can do better, I suggest you hurry,” Brianna stepped on the gas pedal as she saw the car behind them was catching up. “They are hellbent on sending you to your grave, Sir,” Brianna gave Lucien a glance through the mirror. She just realized she did not know his name. He said it earlier, but as she was focused on the address being punched in, she did not give his answer much attention. She didn’t even notice that she coldly corrected him since it was the man beside him which she was asking for the name. “Call me Luci!” Lucien noticed Brianna did not know how to call him. He felt annoyed. He tried to
The Billionaire's Series ASSASSIN 32. Who is She?
“A cup of coffee and the list of weapons you would like to have brought here,” Lucien answered when he saw Brianna was no longer patient to wait for his orders. He actually had the answer in his mind ever since they were in the lift going up to his office, but he intentionally delayed saying them as he wanted her close, side by side with him, not behind him like a bodyguard as to her knowledge. “Please tell Vicky to be in my office on your way out,” he added. He needed to brief Vicky of their arrangement to be sure Brianna would not feel distressed since Clark said she was having a memory loss. “How do you like your coffee is made, Sir?” Brianna asked before leaving his office. “I will take any coffee you would bring me. You can make it according to your preferences,” Lucien nonchalantly answered. He was not even looking at her as he busied himself, checking the pile of folders on his desk. He was not able to get to work yesterd

Tatum left with a black bag full of different kinds of weapons. Leandro Michaelson ordered Enzo to prepare the bag with Tatum and make sure the more reliable easy to carry weapons of any kind were placed inside the bag. Then he demanded to dig everything there is about the new lady bodyguard that is said to be doing an excellent job around Lucien. “I want to know everything there is about this bodyguard. Do I make myself clear?” Leandro sternly stated. “Yes, Master,” Enzo replied mannerly. Then he excused himself to execute the tasks he was ordered to do. Leaving a still frowning in annoyance and bewilderment Leandro as the thoughts of what Tatum said earlier replayed in his mind. Enzo did everything he could. And he presented the results to his Master right away. “What?!” Leandro snarled at Enzo when he saw the file stating everything about the lady. Or the girl, as what the file says if he understood it right. “
The Billionaire's Series ASSASSIN 34. Bold Plans
The rest of the morning passed with Brianna making sure of Lucien's safety with all that she could manage. Before lunchtime came, Tatum arrived with a big bag on his shoulder. He informed Vicky of his arrival and told her he was to bring something the boss had asked him to bring. Vicky just gave him a nod, and Tatum knew he already got the go signal to see the boss in his private office. Tatum looked around to see if Brianna was anywhere outside the boss' office. He assumed she was inside the office when he did not see her anywhere, no matter how hard he checked the surroundings. He knocked on Lucien's door, and Brianna opened the door for him. He was a bit surprised, but then he did not let his reaction show. He simply nodded his thanks to Brianna and headed in to report to his boss. "Boss, I have the weapons you asked me to bring over," Tatum carefully placed the bag on the center table of Lucien's receiving area. A set of two single comfortable leather chairs to the left and anothe

"Try to check if you can trace the car that sent Anna to work that day of her interview," Lucien asked Tatum to move closer as he was not sure when Brianna would be back. "I cannot recall exactly what car it was, not even the color as I have seen a lot of cars ever since then. I suggest you check the surveillance cameras around the vicinity of the company surveillance did not capture it. She was dropped upfront of the building, the main entrance.""Yes, sir," replied Tatum shortly. "Ahh, may I ask what specifically do I have to look for?" Tatum was reluctant to ask, but he wanted to be sure."Check where that car is right now and who was driving it," Lucien dismissed Tatum when he heard a door open and shut. "You can go now," he spoke in his normal voice, unlike earlier when Bianca was not around. He was almost whispering."Yes, sir."Lucien was curious to find that Brianna had no one to contact for an emergency. He was sure
