Chapter 412: Formulating a plan
Brian looked at her and inquired, "What do you have to say about the attacks, you tell me."
"What difference does it make whether I tell you or not? Would you believe me?" she rolled her eyes.
"It’s not like I have another choice, do I?" Brian shrugged.
"Ani, you might want to excuse us for a moment." Jeslyn smiled at her assistant.
"Sure, I’ll be at the lobby if you need me." Ani took her drawing materials and left the sitting room.
Outside the door was Code 5, so Jeslyn was not afraid that anyone would be eavesdropping.
When they came to SIN CITY, they left Code 5 behind. But the guy immediately came searching for them when he knew of their disappearance.
"Those attacks are either from Nancy, your dad, or both of them. The attacks are not meant to kill you, but to scare you into bowing to pressure and doing what they tell you. They know that the deed has been done– you’ve revealed your identity already, so there’s nothing they can do about it. Another way they can control you now is to make you stop rebelling or question their decisions. In return, they’ll withdraw the threat to your life." she paused to observe him for a moment to see how he was reacting to it.
Rex nodded, "True, I agree. Peradventure your assaulters were your family’s enemies and they wanted you dead, they would have long gunned you down with a sniper. And if they wanted to kidnap you, they would have succeeded too, because you don’t go out with a large crowd of guards following you around... I’d recommend you start going out with guards because your life might truly be in danger one day."
Brian took a deep breath, "Now, what should I do?"
"Simple, beat them in their game," Jeslyn replied without thinking.
