Taco town
At the Perry villa, the couple, after receiving the call, were no longer in the mood to go to work cheerfully.
Their great mood had been squashed with Diamond’s urging; they both couldn’t help but sit down in the living room with the six bodyguards assigned to them standing as they waited for instruction.
Belinda looked at the female bodyguard by the name Mia, the one appointed to the head of her guards, and asked, "Mia, what does it mean to have an enemy that forces people to relocate?" curious and wondering how serious the issue was for her daughter to suggest them relocating that fast like that.
Upon hearing that, Mia was puzzled, since she wasn’t expecting to get such a question. However, as trained personnel who once served in the army, this question wasn’t hard for her at all.
So, she responded swiftly, "Ma’am. If the situation is like that, then it means that the enemy is formidable. The kind that can murder without consequences!" her tone was very solemn, recalling the kind of crazy enemies she once fought during her army days.
Upon hearing that, Belinda’s face paled as she felt cold sweat drenching her back.
Richard held her hand, but his hand was trembling as well. Only they knew what was in their thoughts at this moment.
"Is it really that serious?"
"Yes. It is. Could it be that there is something wrong on the miss’s side?" Mia couldn’t help but ask worriedly as she looked at her masters.
Belinda didn’t know which answer to give. They were all in trouble from what she was gathering. However, since Mia and the others were responsible for their safety, she didn’t have any choice but to tell them what was happening.
When the six heard that, their expressions became very solemn and seeing that the couple knew that it was bad.
Brian, the head of the six guards in total, turned to look at the couple, his expression solemn, and said, "Sir and Ma’am. The first miss is very powerful. We all witnessed that when we first arrived. If she called and said that we need to move, then we should do it as soon as possible. Whoever we are facing, that person or organization might be powerful. If they are attacking the first miss, then they might try to catch everyone associated with her and use that against her.
So having you all move for Frin might be a good choice. There are more bodyguards over there and with the first miss’s means, everyone would be safe. I think that we need to start packing now. We can’t alert the enemy."
The couple, hearing such a detailed analysis, knew that there was nothing more to do than follow what their daughter had said.
Mia, after seeing Brian with his statement, also added, "and to avoid alerting the enemy much. We need to pack moderately. Make it look like we are going on a vacation. If we look as if we are fleeing, the enemy, if he had planted people around us, would be alerted."
Everyone nodded upon hearing that. Everything made sense, and the couple became even more worried.
After consulting with the guards, the couple were now planning on going to their respective companies and assigning some duties to the managers they had been cultivating this whole time.
Before they could do that, they received a call from Garnet, the daughter Diamond had found for them.
To think that one day they would see someone who looked similar to their daughters, the couple was almost deceived into thinking that they might have lost a child during Ruby’s birth.
Otherwise, why would Garnet look like their offspring?
However, there was Diamond, always creating miracles left and right. Who knows what that girl did to find Garnet?
With Garnet calling, the couple received more information, which was more helpful. They became much more at ease after talking to Garnet.
With their worries lessened, the couple went their separate ways and headed to their companies, where they were going to settle all duties.
At least during the time, they would be gone, the business would still be operating. They didn’t dare shut them down when they just opened.
Besides, with Diamond there, the couple believed that the problem would be solved soon and shortly they would be able to return to their normal lives.
