Chapter 232 - Two Hundred And Thirty-Two: Reina (2/2)
They knew their enemies could be hiding in the shadows and might strike upon discovering a weak spot in their array. Sakuzi would end them all if a single hair on her body gets missing.
Reina was led into the comfort of a Limousine by the chauffeur who closed the door after Andrew went in after her.
She basked in the extravagant and plush leather interior with a massage seat. It had a state of art entertainment system with fiber optic lighting. Also, there was a bar where her favorite wine was already chilled and handed to her as soon as she sat on the comfortable, styled luxurious seat.
”This is good,” Reina took a sip, savoring the goodness of the wine. Over the years, her taste in food had changed but not wine; this was meant to be her buddy for eternity.
She glanced sideways, capturing Andrew by her side who stood as rigid and alert as every other of her father's men. How boring.
”You know you should relax sometimes, you look like someone who has been told the world's about to end,” she joked but it didn't give the desired effect; she laughed alone.
Andrew gave her a straight look,
”The world would end for me if I don't get you safely home,”
”Just like my father, you all are so pessimistic,” she snorted laughter, lowering the back seat a bit and relaxed further, ”Just chill dude, relax, nothing's going to happen….”
The car was braked so suddenly that Reina was almost tossed out of her seat and the wine spilled on her.
The partition between the driver compartment and the rear passenger compartment slid open at once.
”We're being attacked!” The chauffeur announced just as the bullets rained down on them.
Andrew pushed Reina down, shielding her with his body even though the car was bulletproof.
”Activate the grenade launcher” Andrew communicated through the earpiece at the back of his ear.
”Wait a minute, this limo is equipped with the grenade launcher?” Reina was shocked to discover that.
”Ask your father, later,” he answered in a hurry.
”What do you mean you can't activate? It's not a direct confrontation? Just take them out already,” he ordered.
Seems their gang had been penetrated by another enemy gang, hence some members of their men becoming double agents.
Reina was surrounded by their people who would prevent any open armed confrontation and keep her safe but their formation has been destroyed and they couldn't fire a grenade at their own men.
Andrew knew they were here for Reina, everyone in the underworld - who knew about her existence- knew she was the apple of Sakuzi's eyes. Touch her, you touch Sakuzi.
Thankfully, those betrayals were outnumbered and were quickly destroyed without harm coming to Reina - the same couldn't be said for their bullet dented car.
After this, he would have to do a clean sweep and purge out those tiny spies in their gang.
”If you're done, you could get off my body or ….” He saw that mischievous twinkle in her eyes, ”We could have some cozy time together,” she said suggestively.
”I'm sorry for that,” he got off her body in a haste.
”Tsk tsk, you're no fun at all,” Reina dusted herself.
Andrew couldn't help but notice the changes in her attitude. Ever since Maya, no, scratch that, Reina lost her memories, she seemed like a different person - the daughter her father wanted.
No one was to mention Maya unless you wanted a death sentence from Sakuzi.
This time around, Reina was bolder, feisty, flirty with an air of arrogance that comes with being wealthy. She was the polar opposite of her former self - Thankfully, she was still a tiny bit kind.
It was late at night, Reina had taken the night flight to escape her father - Sakuzi was smart enough to figure she wouldn't be arriving in the morning as said.
There was little to no human passing by, so there weren't any innocent casualties- aside from their men - they would just have to deal with the authorities later as usual.
They drove into the mansion Sakuzi had made livable for the sake of his daughter and not one hidden in the middle of a wood.
A chorus of ”Welcome back princess” was heaped upon Raina as she walked into the foyer of the house. But she was more interested in finding that old man and she knew where he would be.
”How have you been fa...oh”
Welcome back to life with Daddy, Reina.
