Chapter 22_ The truth 2

Aidan gently placed down the gun, Brian came out of the room in confusion " big bro she is sound asleep, what is going on?" Brian asked the whole setting wasn't right.

"she needs to be kept in a safe place, her life is in danger" Douglas coughed out, he wondered what Aidan was made of he almost killed him with his iron grip.

Aidan and Brian exchanged looks, old Wilson didn't tell them the most important thing. "and who are you to her? you are our enemy" Brian questioned.

"of course I'm your enemy but don't think I don't have a clear conscience like your bloody brother".

Aidan raised the gun and fired two shots at Douglas, one on his leg and the other on his arm, Douglas groaned in pain before passing out.

Brian wasn't surprised at all, Douglas men were on alert but before they could take a step. the two brothers shot them down.

"woah that was refreshing" Brian mumbled,

Aidan went into the small room where Racheal was laying down, she didn't wake up despite all the gun shots that were fired.

He picked her up carefully from the bed in bridal style and left the room.

Brian who was waiting in the car for his big bro dropped his jaw when he saw Aidan carrying Racheal towards the car.

Normally he would have just pulled her along or wake her up. he opened the door for Aidan to place her inside the car.

"take the other cars home" Aidan simply instructed.

Brian let out a sigh stepping out of the car, Aidan carefully placed her on the seat in a sitting position.

He saw Brian standing still looking at him like he has a horn growing out of his head he quickly whined up the glass before he instructed the driver to move.

Aidan was busy on his laptop, he had a tight schedule today but he had to leave his work just because this girl got herself into trouble.

Since the road was a little bumpy Racheal moved due to the impact her head fell on his shoulder.

Aidan gently pushed her head back to rest on the seat instead but her head fell on his shoulder again, he sighed in frustration.

He felt like pulling off the skin on her face right now, he knew she was unconscious but that doesn't mean he will let her have her way unconsciously.

He constantly sighed in the car, she was breathing on his neck, he tried to adjust her head again but instead, her head fell on his lap.

He gently closed his laptop and positioned her head well on his laps, never in his wildest dreams did he think that he would one day turn to a pillow for a lady at that.

The car arrived at his house he knew well that if she goes back to her apartment, she will be a dead meat.

Again he lifted her out of the car heading into his house, the maids and servants that passed by blinked severally, their master brought a woman into the house.

They thought he was a gay since he showed no interest in women, it was as if women were a big taboo to him.

He arrived into a room and gently placed her on the bed covering her with a blanket he left the room................

................................

Lyra was so happy since Brian suddenly left the office in a hurry she spent most hours dancing around the office and sleeping.

Now she was laying on the couch, with her legs on her table. She was watching a movie on her phone with a earpiece attached in her ears.

The door opened and someone stepped in but she was completely oblivious to that. Brian was awestruck he peeped at his watch, it was past five.

Closing hours was over an hour ago but she was completely unaware of that, he eyes itched seeing her so comfortable like she owned this place.

His eyes darted to her table, the files were completely scattered and unattended to, Lyra noticed the change in fragrance of the atmosphere. 'i would ask him what spray he uses it's nice' she mused smiling to herself.

Her eyes shifted from her phone, the scent was stronger now.

She jerked up seeing him half resting on the table, he was staring at her intently while she avoided his gaze.

Lyra pulled out the earpiece from her ears. "slacking off on your first day that is coming out of your monthly payment".

He announced and left for his table, he was supposed to sign some paperwork today.

Lyra froze at the spot " Brian I'm sorry I didn't really mean to...".

Brian got up immediately walking up to her, he pulled out the band holding her hair letting it fall loose.

Lyra frowned at what he did " why did you do that?" she questioned.

"don't you dare address me so casually ever again" Brian ordered.

Lyra scoffed at his words, "don't you know it's past five".

"so?" he questioned.

Lyra walked around the table "you've seized to be my boss so you are just Brian to me right now".

Brian was left speechless, this girl has a way of manipulating words to her own advantage. " you know well enough that I can fire you?".

Lyra smacked her lips "I dare you Brian Wilson to fire me"..
