Chapter 97 Alone Time
- And as she had given her words, she returned after five days. She did not want to leave any stone unturned. She checked every possible detail. Until the fifth day, she was still finding answers and proofs. And the more she dug into Leandro Michaelson’s claim of innocence, supported by Andy Lockwood’s claim to be the witness, the more Brianna found how complicated were the issues that brought tragedy to her family. She found a beam of light to believe Leandro Michaelson’s words, as well as the General’s, and she also found that her enemy was not small-time criminals. Brianna realized she would need their help if she wanted to bring justice the soonest possible. She is persistent, and she will not stop until she finds justice for her parents’ death, but it might take a lifetime to achieve. Unless she has influential people to work with, things won’t get dealt with speedily.
- She also thought about what she could offer in return for their assistance. Lucien did not want to agree with her idea, but when Anna explained that she was not going to accept their help without her contribution, Lucien quickly suggested to hire her as his personal bodyguard , just as she used to do.
- Brianna peacefully accepted his suggestion, so she kept her place beside Lucien ever since she came back. She even continued to use the room she stayed in when she was recovering. She would visit her house once in a while on their way home, to Lucien’s villa, from the office when she needed to get something or for any reasons she may remember and want to swing by.
