The Attack II
"Calvin, send Arci luggage upstairs," Dawn said.
"It's Okay, I will send her luggage upstairs" Bremo said.
"Where is her room?" He asked.
"Let me show you the way sir" The maid that came to announce their presence said.
"This way, please" she stretched out her hand.
"Thanks," Bremo said.
He stared at Arci, Arci stepped forward and walked to the front, Bremo walked behind her, the maid following them. All the while ignoring Runa.
Runa's expression turned green in anger and shame.
She wants to chase after him but Dawn stops her.
"Mom!"
"Calm down, let's figure out the situation first, Bremo has been a nice boy since childhood besides she is an old acquaintance of his. He is just feeling pity for her, because she is all alone" Dawn said.
Runa calmed down after hearing this.
…
"Please," The maid said.
They arrived at the living room.
She stood without moving because she remembered when her mother and her brother were still alive, when everything was going well.
Bremo stopped when he realized that she had stopped walking.
"Are you alright?" He asked worriedly.
"I'm fine," she replied.
"You can give me the suitcase now," She told him.
"I'll send it upstairs for you," Bremo said.
"I can do it myself" She stretched her hand to collect the suitcase.
"People here are watching us," She said.
Because the living room has maids stationed there.
"It's Okay" Bremo replied
"It's Okay, Let me help you" Bremo told her.
"Why did you insist?" Arci asked.
"Because this is not your suitcase" He replied confidently.
"Miss Arci?" The maid called out when she saw them still talking.
"Oh coming" she followed the maid, Bremo followed them.
The maid led them to a room.
"Miss Arci, this is your room" The maid said.
She and Bremo entered the room together.
"You are excused" she told the maid.
"Yes" the maid bowed and left.
Bremo closed the room door.
They sat down together in their room chairs.
Bremo dropped the suitcase on the table.
Arci opened it.
"The lock has been picked," Bremo said.
Arci opened the suitcase widely, the things there were not familiar to her.
"The suitcase belonged to that man," she said.
Bremo checked what the suitcase consist of
He took out a belt.
"Marshal" he called out when he saw what was written on the belt.
"It seems the man who kidnapped you has a special status" He told her.
They searched deeper.
"It has a false bottom" Bremo said as he saw he knocked the bottom of the suitcase.
Arci looked at him.
The room door was knocked, interrupting them.
Arci glanced at the door and sat down straight.
The door opened, Runa walked into the room elegantly with two maids behind her.
"Arci, these are the clothes and hairpins, mom has prepared for you. The party is about to start, you may want to freshen up" She said as she looked at Arci with disdain.
Arci nodded at her politely.
"Bremo, Uncle Albert will arrive soon. Let's wait downstairs to greet him. My sister also needs privacy to freshen up" Runa smiled gently at Bremo.
Bremo stared at Arci, Arci nodded at him indicating that she was fine.
"Okay, I'll come with you" Bremo said
He stood up and walked out of the room while Runa tried to catch up with him.
The maids are still standing there with the clothes and hairpins.
"I need to get changed first" Arci told the maid as she stood up.
….
Bremo was walking downstairs while Runa tried to catch up with him.
"Bremo wait for me" . Runa shouted.
Bremo stopped and looked back at her.
She smiled when she saw this.
She ran towards him and put her in his.
"Let's walk together" She said
"Okay"
"Bremo, do you like my dress today?"
"It suits you," Bremo replied.
They walked for a while before Bremo stopped at the guest room that he usually stays in whenever he comes to the Lincoln residence.
He saw his assistant standing outside of the room.
He turned to Runa, "Miss Runa, it suddenly occurred to me that have got something to deal with"
"I'll be waiting over there," Runa said.
Bremo nodded.
Runa smiled gently and walked away.
His assistant walked closer to him when he saw that he was alone.
"Marshal"
"Keep close watch tonight. Have some soldiers to standby on and off the field" Bremo told him.
He has a bad feeling that something bad is going to happen tonight.
"Is there something wrong?" Richmood asked
"I feel something is about to go wrong. Something might happen, ``he told him.
….
Lincoln Residence
A car stopped at the Lincoln residence, The door opened, two men walked out.
The girls standing at the park lit up when they saw the men.
They ran over but were stopped by some soldiers.
"Calm down ladies, calm down" Calvin shouted.
"Marshal look at me" some of them screamed.
"Marshal can I bear your baby"
"Marshal I love you so much"
"Calm down everybody," Calvin shouted.
The men looked at the girls and smiled, making them dizzy for a while till they left before they snapped out of their daze.
"Marshal Stanley smiled at him"
"No you got it wrong, he smiled at him"
"Nope, the both of you are too ugly, he smiled at him" A girl smiled smugly.
"Did I see it wrong Marshal Michael just smiled at me too" A girl held her chest while her face flushed red.
"Tch, you are too ugly. He smiled at me"
…..
Both of the men entered the Lincoln residence.
One has brown hair and the other one has a black curly hair.
They both looked handsome.
The one with the brown hair is Stanley, his father is the military general of San Jose while the one with the black curly hair is Michael, his father is the military General of San Diego. They are childhood friends with Bremo, Bremo's father is the military general of Los Angeles.
Although their children are friends, their fathers just befriended each other for benefits.

"Marshal Stanley, Marshal Michael welcome. You should have let me know in advance so that I'd come out to welcome you " Dawn smiled at them.
