By bolstering defense, Michael meant that it was time for him to own a private military firm. One that he could trust and willing to put themselves in harm's way to protect him.
He had tried contracting a private military firm before but it didn't work out as the CEO of that firm betrayed him by giving sensitive and classified information to a rival company.
While heading to his office, Michael ran into Juliet.
"Sir…how was your lunch?" Juliet asked.
"It was delightful," Michael replied. "I need you in my office in ten minutes. We have important matters to discuss."
Juliet nodded, sensing the urgency in Michael's tone. "I'll be there."
Michael continued to his office, his mind already formulating plans on how to start his own private military firm. He knew he needed a team that was loyal, highly trained, and capable of handling any threat.
