"We'll leave now. Let's not wait for her."
Zayn was still exhausted and weak. He wasn't in his optimal condition.
"Yes." Brandy helped him up to the car and covered him with a blanket. "Mr. Zayn, you have some rest. It'll be a while before we get there."
"Okay." Zayn nodded and lay on his back with his eyes closed.
When Bugara got in the car, he instructed the subordinates in the two cars behind them, "Mr. Zayn needs some rest. I will be driving slowly. After we got down the mountain, one of you will drive in front."
"Yes, "
They drove down the mountain steadily.
Brandy looked at the GPS, estimated the route and time of arrival, and whispered to Bugara.
"Gently pick up some speed after we got down the mountain. Otherwise, we'll be late."
"Okay." Bugara nodded and glanced at the rearview mirror to check if the two cars followed behind. However, he noticed a few mysterious birds circling above their convoy.
They seemed to have followed them a long way.
Bugara chose to ignore it. He assumed those were Derilo's birds which were only following them because they got familiar with Zayn after his long treatment and would disappear after they left the mountain.
Sure enough, as soon as the car left the mountain, the birds disappeared.
Bugara didn't think much into it. He sped up and drove toward their destination.
Zayn was asleep for the entire journey and slowly woke up when the car was about to arrive at the Lierger residence.
Initially, Brandy wanted to wake Zayn up, but he had already woken up. After all, those years of living in intense stress had made him sensitive to his surroundings.
"Are we there?"
Zayn squinted and looked at the guards standing vigilantly outside.
Although people always compared the Lierger family with the Giblo family, both families were vastly different.
The founding of the Lierger family began with Old Lady Lierger, who was also Carla's great- grandmother. She was once a prominent general of Erihal. After leaving the army, she began to develop their first family business, which was dealing with firearms.
In other words, the Lierger family made their fortune in the firearm business. With the changes of the times, they switched their business model to become a legit business. However, the Lierger family members had adopted a ruthless nature.
They managed both their companies and families under the military system.
Even the villa where they temporarily lived was built like a castle, protected by Erihal guards in camouflage with stern looks and penetrating gazes.
Anyone who was generally unfamiliar with the Lierger family would be frightened.
Such as Bugara, who tightened his hands on the steering wheel.
"Calm down." Zayn noticed Bugara's anxiousness.
"Even if Daemon found out about you and Rogan, he won't do anything to you. He'll be occupied by other important stuff. He's a busy man after all."
"Yes… yes." Bugara responded twice. He tensed his body and took a deep breath to adjust his mental state.
"What a loser." Brandy smacked him on the back of his head. "Why bother going after a woman if you're such a coward? Why are you so afraid?"
Bugara didn't dare to speak. He looked aggrieved.
"That's enough." Zayn became more and more lenient. He would have punched him long ago before, but he could understand Bugara's concern.
Bugara wasn't afraid of Daemon. He feared that he would be separated from Rogan.
After going through so much, his relationship with Rogan became thicker than blood. He couldn't bear the thought of losing her.
As a blinding beam of light shone from the front of the car, Bugara slowed down and stopped.
A group of people walked over in an orderly manner. They had weapons in their hand as a precaution.
Brandy frowned and was about to lose his temper. However, Zayn made a gesture to stop him. Hence, he could only hold back his anger and get down of the car to state their purpose.
"My name is Brandy. Mr. Zayn has made an appointment to meet Mr. Lierger at ten o'clock!"
