Noah POV

“Let’s meet up at Blue Canyon. ” I informed Brent and ended the call.

I was walking briskly toward my car when a man intercepted me.

He was the head of my security team.

“Ed.” I nodded in greeting.

“Sir. We are staking the house and your family.” He reported.

“Good. Keep me posted and mark my words. If something happens to them, you will all pay up big time.” I warned before getting into my car and driving away.

This is the first time I used my name and my wealth to threaten anyone. I was not used to doing that, but the protective instinct in me was the one talking. I do not know what I would have done if something happened to my family, especially as I am not around to protect them.

When I got to Blue Canyon, Brent was already waiting for me.

I specialized in corporate espionage. I unravel many cases of economic sabotage and stealing company trade secrets. Then, the Fords also gave me jobs.” “Isn’t that a bit dangerous?” Worry etched on her face, and I leaned forward to smoothen the folds it created on her forehead. “I am doing administrative work nowadays.

That you are the epitome of selflessness, is that it?” I snapped, too angry to care whether my voice was going through the roof.
