Just as Brianna had in mind, everything proceeded according to their plans.

The two couples arrived at the resort and were escorted inside by women wearing the resort’s employee uniforms but the moment they got into the room where they were supposed to change their wedding attires, they were led to a control room through a pocket door connecting to the adjacent room.

In the dressing room, there were couples to represent Lucien and Brianna as well as for Levi and Sandra, there was also someone to stand as Leandro Michaelson. This idea came later when they explored the event through Jack’s 3D presentation of how they were supposed to act accordingly. It was not only for the immediate people concerned to familiarize themselves with but also for those who would represent each character.

As a result, the family agreed to find and have people as their dummies and stand in the wedding hall while the real ones stayed in the control room but from different locations.

    “Do we have people from the inside?” Charles Anderson asked one of his men. “Not certain, sir,” the man answered.“What do you mean by that?” The man on the screen monitor asked with a dim face. “The men we sent to spy were found and as far as I can assume, they might be dead already if they tried to resist or kept alive but are being tortured as we speak. We can only hope the people we tried to bribe would stick to the deals we have made and do their part of the plans,” the man answered. “Have we heard anything from them?” Charles asked again. “Is the wedding legit like the rumors say?”“Aside from the words that a private wedding was indeed being prepared at a resort hotel, nothing else, sir,” the man answered. “Have you been watching their every move for anything that would tell if they are trying to trick us?” Asked the man on the screen. The man on the screen was no other than Terrence Clayton. Although Terrence was behind bars, he was still under trial due to so many filed

    The moment the enemies started to make their moves within the area under the radar, every one of Brianna’s and the Michaelsons’ men was well-informed and guided on what to do. “Don’t make any advances. Let them walk into the trap,” Brianna was in her owl-like mode as she keenly observed every screen waiting where the unwanted guests would take their way into the “wedding” that they have prepared as bait. Everyone affirmed they got the orders loud and clear.“IT team, are we ready?” Brianna asked Jack and Enzo in particular without mentioning their names through a private line. “Yes, B! We have set everything just as you had ordered,” Jack answered formally. Jack was not worried about anything but he was upset to think that such a big day in Brianna’s life would be threatened this way. It was not sitting well with him at all, despite the fact that they could provide excellent security. It was somehow heartbreaking that they could not fully enjoy such a joyous moment because he himse

    “We are in!” The team leader to attack the wedding event sent by Charles reported when they reached the area Charles had clearly pointed on the map on their rundown. It was a distance accessible enough for the snipers to take a clear shot from a distance, even if the target would only look like a dot from the lenses of the sniper rifle. Their plan was to take down the targets but to make sure they do the job, two teams were sent out. One team will take different positions to take the shots while the other team will have to find its way to get close and identify their targets, then by using invisible laser light, the snipers will know who to aim at according to the color that would appear on their lenses. “Do you notice anything weird?” Asked Charles. “None so far, sir!” Answered the man. “That is the weird part!” Charles frowned. He had seen through the cameras installed in their men’s gear that everything seemed to be casual and normal. There were people guarding the paths thei

    The man did not say anything. But it was evident in his facial expressions that he was fighting against himself. “I wonder what would make things easier for you to tell me whatever I need to know,” Brianna said as she dialed Jack’s private number and put their phone conversation on speaker. “He has someone special admitted as one of the patients in the Intensive Care Unit in the local government hospital and another someone in the nursing home of Saint Augustine Facility Center,” Jack did not dally to tell Brianna what she called for. Lucien was also listening to their conversation from his designated position while Brianna was away. And Lucien was amazed to notice once again that Anna and Jack indeed have an impressive teamwork rapport. Lucien could testify along with everyone else around them, near and far, that Brianna did not even ask Jack to dig into the background of the person in question. Jack had not even seen the man in person but through the angles, he found a clear shot

    Brianna hid her astonishment to see Lucien taking the lead. But as refreshing as it felt, she did not want to reprimand or stop him. It wasn’t like Lucien was not expected to know a thing or two when it comes to strategy, he was a businessman, after all, his wisdom in planning and brain in creating possible and applicable actions to achieve a major or overall aim is not to be ignored. “I’m listening,” Brianna answered urging Lucien to continue. “Once we cut their communications to whoever sent them here, we can move without being noticed. We have enough people to handle the situation here and we will have enough people to send to where Charles Anderson is and just as you said earlier, seize the King and checkmate!” Lucien stated assuringly. “IT team, do you agree this plan is viable?” Brianna asked. “Yes!” Andy, Enzo, and Jack answered almost in unison. “But there is a choice you have to make here, babe,” Lucien leaned his hands on the armrest of Brianna’s chair, turning her aro

    As soon as Blake Gordon activated the jammer, the sniper team Charles had sent to attack the resort hotel, where Brianna Peters and Lucien Michaelson’s wedding was supposed to be being held, got disconnected and unreachable for Charles and the few men with him that controlled their overall internet connections and communication. “What the fuck is going on?!” Charles asked the man he knew was the most active in every inquiry Charles would make. “Get them back online!” Charles Anderson was furious beyond words but he was not very much familiar with everyone around him at the moment, so he was aware he could not act like he would usually do when he was with Jack and the rest of the men under his command.“Sir, something must be wrong from their end of the network,” the man seated in front of the computer hesitantly uttered. “What is that supposed to mean?!” Charles snarled.The poor IT guy cringe, but he had no choice other than clarify his words.“I tried to reach out to them but the

    Then Charles Anderson turned to the IT team. “I want to see every corner, every area, every exit and entrance of this barracks!” he roared in panic. “Sir, what about the men in the field?” the team leader asked cautiously after nodding in response to the command given. “Forget them, they are no longer of any use now that the enemy has its hands on them,” Charles answered waving his right hand dismissively. “I want to see if the ones I am after would grace me with their mighty presence,” Charles murmured as he busily looked at every screen. “I am not so sure they would choose to join their team to attack me back for gatecrashing their wedding but knowing the bride too well, I won’t be surprised if I see her face coming for me at this moment.” Charles keenly observed every angle on every screen. He was tracing Brianna’s figure among the intruders. They were all in full gear, but knowing Brianna for more than a decade, Charles Anderson could tell even her shadow. And he was more tha

    “What are all of these?” Lucien asked looking at a slideshow of files with word documents and images. “Isn’t that the address of the warehouse where we found the human organ harvesting? Are these papers the legal documents of property ownership?” “Yes! And someone sent me this file after I failed to hack into their firewall!” Jack answered with a victorious laugh. “Wait…! The ownership is under the name of… Will somebody zoom that part where the name is printed and signed?!” Leandro frowned as he also tried to read the content of the document on the wide screen in front of him and Andy Lockwood. “Terrence Clayton!?”Andy, Leandro, Lucien, and Jack almost read and uttered the name aloud in unison. Brianna scoffed. In her thoughts, “got ya!” was bouncing although her facial expressions remained as calm as always. “How did you get this? Are you sure they are legit?” Brianna asked calmly instead of showing her pure delight. She still wanted to make sure they weren’t rejoicing over a f

    Five years later. “Babe, don’t tire yourself so much,” Lucien reminded Brianna lovingly. “How is our little Anna doing today?” he asked with his warm hands rubbing on Brianna’s six months pregnant belly. “I am not really sure. But I have no doubts she is too eager to see the outside world. She has been kicking my ribs inside as if trying to push her way out even before her due!” Brianna blew a breath as she answered. Lucien laughed happily at the cute face of his lovely wife who somehow looked complaining. “Babe, I noticed that your mood swings during this pregnancy and the first one, with Caleb, are so different. Could it be because their genders are also different? With Caleb, you were as tough as usual, but with our little girl, Abigail, you are so… Uhmmm, so…. How do I say this?” Lucien scratched his head as if searching for the exact but safe word to say not to provoke his pregnant wife. “Come on, tell me. I am so what, huh?” Brianna asked with a sweet smile. Her face looked

    “And in respect to Anna’s parents, I wish to move their graves into a mausoleum only for the Peters; the parents and grandparents. And as soon as we’ve done so, we will hold a ceremony to honor them,” Leandro declared. “What do you say about these thoughts of mine, Anna? I really hope I do not offend you in any way, because with all my heart, I swear, I only have the purest desire to express my gratitude that they brought you into this world and now you become a part of our family, that also makes your family ours, just like our family is also yours.”Silence filled the whole room. The question was directed to Brianna, so their eyes all turned to look at her as they waited to hear what she would say in response to Leandro’s words that were said with heartfelt sincerity. Brianna was silent not because she was feeling so emotional. Brianna was inwardly checking her heart and thoughts as well as her intuitive response, in silence. Guarding her mind against any misunderstanding or miscal

    Brianna and Lucien arrived earlier than Sandra and Levi. It was because Sandra wanted to buy something for Anna, Sandra’s soon-to-be daughter-in-law, and also something for her father-in-law, Leandro Michaelson. There was nothing to worry bout since the war had already subsided and there were more than enough men to assist the couple with security or anything they would ever need. Enzo welcomed the young couple, Brianna and Lucien, as soon as they arrived at the mansion. Leandro sent the helicopter to fetch Enzo right after Leandro and Andy were dropped off at his yard. Lucien did not say anything, but Enzo understood the curious look on his young Master’s face as to why it was not the same as usual. Leandro would always wait for Lucien and Brianna by the door whenever the patriarch knew of their arrival. “The Master has a guest. They are in the study room and he is asking for your presence as well,” Enzo answered as he led the couple to where Leandro, Andy, and their guest were at

    While the rest of the world was in tumult, the men on the Michaelsons' private army along with Brianna’s team subdued the whole barracks and gather every useful piece of evidence to solidify the cases against Terrence Clayton. The Michaelsons team found out there were more grave reasons why the ex-Vice President wanted the whole place burned down. “Sir, there seemed to be a lot of hidden bundles of money on one of the installed container vaults covered in military cloth to make it appear and look like it was only one of the stocks containers,” Captain Lexus Bordeaux reported when they started to search the whole property for anything they could find useful. “There is no way one can create a legal document to explain such a large sum of money, so Clayton must have kept them there,” Andy scoffed. “And there wouldn’t have been any way his under-the-table deals would pay him other than by cash,” Leandro also scorned. “Do not touch anything, just take photos and secure the surroundings

    Blake assigned Finn and Hoggins to cover him by looking at their surroundings as his watchmen while he focused his attention on the target he was after according to the order given for him to execute. Blake had to look up most of the time to locate the shooter so he was relieved two of his comrades who already knew the drills and what they were supposed to do in this situation were with him to rely on. “Boss, these men are wearing a different uniform from ours. I believe they are not on the same side with us. What do I do?” Blake reported in a whispering tone as soon as he got the assurance that his information was accurate. “Take them down. Alive if possible, injured or not. But don’t hesitate to shoot if they try to resist and fight back!” Brianna answered. “Yes, Boss!” Blake answered. He gave Ramil Finn and Andrew Hoggins a signal on what to do and they acted accordingly. Hoggins took the east and south directions to secure. Finn took the other two directions while Blake Gordon

    “Don Leon, the barracks in the forest is about to be abolished. Whether there are people in it or none, the order was made, and Terrence Clayton’s minions are on the move as we speak. If you have your men in there, tell them to pull out. Especially if your grandson and his wife are there, I strongly suggest you inform them of this message immediately!” The caller was using a voice synthesizer, so it was unrecognizable if the caller was a man or a woman. “Let me know who you are, whether what you say is the truth or just a prank; I want to thank you for this length of effort to notify me; let me return the favor one day,” Leandro wisely replied. “I will come to find you in person one day, then you will know who you are, and I will personally ask for your help. But for now, we don’t have time. Tell your men to pull out!” That was all they heard before the line was cut. “Tatum Eliott, leave the area right away. I repeat, leave the area right now!
