The three kids finished their lunch quickly. After that, they hurried up the stairs to change their clothes.
There was no one else in the room, so Josh tugged at Randy and asked softly, "Randy, did you deliberately say that you want to go out so that you can take us to go look for Mommy?"
"Yeah, " replied Randy while nodding.
"That's great news!" called out Venus excitedly, "I thought that you actually just wanted to go out to play. I was annoyed about how you're making things difficult for Daddy when he's so busy. Now I understand that you were just trying to create an opportunity for us to go look for Mommy."
"This will not be an easy feat, " said Randy with a frown on, "Daddy's bodyguards are way smarter than Great-grandpa's and they know us better.
"We must work together and put on an act when we were on our way. We'll have to see if we can slip away. If that is not possible, the two of you will cover for me while I slip away…"
"Are you trying to slip away on your own to go look for mommy?" interrupted Josh angrily before he protested, "No, you do that all the time."
"Exactly. We want to see mommy, too, " complained Venus with a pout.
"Now is not the time to fight among ourselves. We must stay united, " said Randy urgently, "Mr. Bugara and the others are good at their jobs. I might not be able to slip away on my own, so taking the two of you along will just make it less likely for any one of us to slip away.
"Besides, I am just testing the waters. If we can't slip away, we will go to Grand Plaza as planned. Maybe Mommy will sneak over to visit us like she did the last time."
"Okay, we'll follow your lead, " said Josh unwillingly. He wasn't happy about that arrangement, but he had to settle to achieve their main goal.
"If you have the opportunity to do so, you must bring us along to go see Mommy, okay? You're not allowed to sneak away and see her on your own, " said Venus with a frown on. She was serious when she said those words.
"Got it, " promised Randy while nodding, "Alright, we should hurry and change our clothes."
Twenty minutes later, Bugara took eight bodyguards to take the kids out.
A Rolls-Royce forged ahead, with a jeep following close behind.
Bugara was inside the Rolls-Royce with the kids. He had his guard up and was especially alert because he was worried about something happening.
That was understandable since Benard had just been reprimanded earlier that day and was injured.
If I make a mistake, it is likely that Mr. Giblo will punish me by making me chase after the ladies…
That is even worse than taking a bullet!
"Mr. Bugara, it's so stuffy in the car. Let's open the windows so we can have some fresh air, " requested Randy. Naturally, that was just his excuse.
"Okay, but you have to keep an eye on Dori. Don't let it fly away, " reminded Bugara before he rolled down the window a little.
Randy and Josh exchanged looks. Josh hopped down from the seat and pulled at Bugara while requesting, "Mr. Bugara, I heard that you are an expert in martial arts. Let's practice together."
"Mr. Joshua, let's practice after we get home, " said Bugara quickly, "It's not convenient to do so in the car."
"It's fine, you can demonstrate a little…"
"Ah! Dori!"
Josh's words were cut short by Venus's shrieks. Before anyone could react to it, Dori had already flown out via the window.
"Dori, my Dori!" cried Venus. She sounded heartbroken and was throwing a tantrum while shouting, "Stop the car! I want to go look for Dori."
Randy secretly sighed in astonishment. Gosh, Josh and Venus are really good at acting… oh, and Dori too!
"Stop the car, " instructed Bugara immediately.
Venus tried to hop out of the car as soon as the car stopped. Bugara stopped her immediately and informed, "Princess Venus, don't go. My people will go chase after the bird."
"No, that won't do. Dori will be scared if we're not there, " said Josh in a worried tone, "Let us off the car now. What if some wild animals eat Dori?"
"Be good, Mr. Joshua. It's not safe here, " cooed Bugara quickly, "I will have someone go after Dori, and they will definitely bring it back."
"No! I want to go look for my Dori. My Dori…"
Venus sounded so worried that she was crying aloud. Her piercing voice echoed in the sky.
