Raine shifted her thoughts to Tyrone instead, making her grin at the mere thought of seeing that devilish man again.
Adrenaline and excitement surged through her body. She was serious about meeting with him again and unraveling all the secrets that he hid. She’d love to tease such a guy like him. And with just that thought, a brilliant plan emerged in her head as she gave her teammates a playful smile.
"You two, make sure uncle will find out about this man. I don’t care how you do it. Whether you have spread the news that I have a thing for silver-haired men or bluish-gray eyes, it’s up to you two..." she smirked. "You can even spread the news that I sat on this man’s lap while stripteasing for my mission last night. I don’t mind. Just make sure that this man’s name is among the list of bodyguards uncle Yun would show to me next time."
Her uncle never gave up convincing her to get a bodyguard, so she was sure Tyronne would show up in the profiles that her oh-so dear uncle recommended for her to pick within this week.
"What? You sat on his lap!" Levi and Lyne both burst into a chorus.
"Yeah, and I loved it," Raine scoffed, realising that the two of them were both troubled at the thought of her doing something brazen. "Just do what I say!"
"But boss, it means that man will be your uncle’s spy!" Levi retorted.
"So what? He can spy on me all he wants..." Raine commented with a devious smile. "The two of us can go searching through each other’s bodies for all I care."
Why bother using her own resources to search for Tyrone when her uncle could do it for her? Uncle Yun could even deliver Tyrone tied up in lacy ribbons, and Raine would be delighted at the gift.
********
At Mr. Devon’s Residence.
"You are all useless!!!"
Devon screamed at the bodyguards from Umbra Security Agency who were on duty with him last night. It was six in the evening already, and he just woke up after that b*tch bashed him over the head with the suitcase! His head was still aching, and he still felt dizzy.
He clenched his jaw as he looked at the men before him. Surprisingly, all of them were alive. The bloody-eyed hunter seemed to have spared the humans and only killed the supernatural creatures from the security guards of The Haven Club.
The Umbra Security Agency was the best security worldwide, and the agency knew of the existence of supernatural creatures coexisting with humans. So basically, they accepted any kind of clients, humans or not. They aimed to protect their clients by all means and provide good quality security service. But last night, the agency ruined their outstanding reputation by failing to protect him from an attack!
"Give me your best and reliable men," Devon grunted at Kiran, the CEO of the Umbra Security Agency. "This will be your second chance. Fail again, and I will terminate my contract with your company!" Devon’s eyebrows collided as he added, "And why are you even here when I asked for the presence of your Chairman and not you?!"
"I offer my sincere apologies, Mr. Devon. However, as the CEO of the company, I always represent our Chairman during every transaction," Kiran explained.
Devon wasn’t appeased at all. The man jabbed his fingers at all of the men in front of him as he cursed, "Well, I don’t f*cking care about these excuses. I just want the job done. These men are all a bunch of incompetent idiots! Far from reliable at all!"
Tyrone, who had been holding himself back, couldn’t help but speak up,, "Sir, you instructed us not to make a move when we were about to stop her from approaching you. If you had let us interfere back then."
"Grrr... Who the heck are you to try and answer back?! Even having the gall to point your incompetency to your employer?!" Devon shouted red-faced at the moment. He jabbed a finger at Tyrone before pointing to the rest of them, "You! And you! You’re fired! All of you are f*cking fired! Get out of my sight now!"
Kiran signaled Tyrone and the rest to leave.
"My apologies again, Mr. Devon. I will send you the men you requested this instant. I will make sure that this won’t happen again," Kiran apologized. "Our Chairman wants to relay his sincere apologies and has offered a one-year free service as compensation for our men’s failure."
"You better be! How could you consider this agency the best in handling underworld matters about security when you failed on the simple task of protecting me from an attack?" Devon retorted before he dismissed Kiran.
Mr. Devon’s incoherent yelling died down as his rage turned into utter worry and concern. How could he face the Big Boss now? With him losing that vital list like that, he was screwed. Those names on the list needed a heads-up too.
"Sh*t..."
Devon cursed with gritted teeth as he prepared his perfect narrative of what transpired last night. He was in deep sh*t because of it, but at least he had immunity against them and the Big Boss. They would only punish him but not end up killing him, unlike that bloody-eyed hunter that would’ve killed him if he didn’t cooperate. It was so unexpected. No one knew he had that list, so how did that woman find out about it?
Devon annoyingly scratched his head in frustration. He prepared to leave his mansion and meet with the Big Boss first.
While Devon left to meet up with his boss, the rest of the bodyguards with him last night were already sent back to the Umbra Security Agency. New replacements came to accompany him in less than ten minutes after his first bodyguards were all fired.
