Chapter 237: You think it’s connected to your sister’s return?
Noah POV
As soon as Brooke and Nora left, I reached for my phone, dialling Selene’s number. When she answered, I could hear the concern in her voice. She sounded groggy.
"Noah? What’s wrong, dear?"
"We may have a bigger problem than we thought and ordinarily, I wouldn’t let you know so you won’t worry," I said grimly "But I need you to be extra cautious. Don’t trust anyone outside our immediate circle. While we’re waiting for Kurtis’s men to arrive, I’m sending additional guards to you and the girls right away,".
"I know that dear, you don’t have to say more but why are you telling me this out of the blue? Did something happen? And please don’t tell me it’s nothing, I can tell you’re tense,"
I wanted to tell her all about the breach but it wasn’t something I could say on the phone and we promised to be truthful to each other. "I can’t say on the phone right now but I’ll tell you as soon as I get back home, okay?"
"Okay!" she sounded disappointed.
But there was nothing I could do. I didn’t know the gravity of the situation, so it’d be foolish to make baseless assumptions, especially without meeting with the Security Council first. As soon as I ended the call, I tied up the documents on my desk before heading out for the meeting.
As I walked in, my mind was twirling with suspicion. Suspicion that this could be anyone and then I need to find a way – a strategy to make the culprit come to light without making it obvious. But I couldn’t shake off this weird feeling that my father and my sister together with Brooke had something to do with the breach.
