"I'll discuss it with my sister. Just a moment." Leana immediately ran into the car and talked to Cecilia in a low voice. Cecilia was very perplexed and naturally had no objection.
In the end, Leana agreed to stay. Hendrix explained the route to the city. It was not far from there, and there was a bus station nearby. It would take more than half an hour to go to Leana's workplace.
Leana was pleased and expressed her gratitude to Hendrix.
Hendrix smiled bitterly in his heart. She would not have been treated so well if Mr. Nicholas had not taken a fancy to her sister.
Cecilia was still coughing in a low voice. She had no strength and was shocked. Her pretty face was slightly pale.
"You can live here with reassurance," Hendrix said to Leana after helping them load their belongings into the second-floor building next to them, and your sister can't see too. She will be at risk if she lives in a busy area."
"I know, and I'm also worried about this. My sister is really pitiful. I'm also afraid that she will be hurt. Mr. Hendrix, please thank Mr. Nicholas for me. He's a wonderful individual." Leana was overwhelmed with emotion and tears welled up in her eyes.
"That's right. Mr. Nicholas is good-looking and has a likable personality. He is also a capable, dependable, and a talented man. Sigh, the person who would be his lover in the future may have rescued the universe in her previous life. I'm not sure which lucky woman can accept his affection?" Hendrix expressed himself. It was unclear to whom Hendrix was attempting to converse, but he was really a great friend.
Cecilia couldn't help but smile. To be honest, Hendrix was a fantastic subordinate. He only saw the positive aspects of him.
"That's a given. Mr. Nicholas is a noble man. He must be married to a wealthy young lady from a well-matched family. I sincerely hope that he and his partner can meet as soon as possible." Leana was quick to answer and automatically uttered something pleasant.
Hendrix was stunned for a moment, and then quickly explained, "This isn't certain. Mr. Nicholas is not a shallow person. It's also not necessary for her to come from a well-matched family. We'll leave everything up to fate. Sigh, I'll excuse myself first. I'll ask someone to send some food to you later. You can take a rest."
After saying that, Hendrix turned around and left, closing the door for them.
Cecilia quit pretending as soon as the door was shut. She looked around the room and discovered that there was no monitor, but there were cameras outside. The entire courtyard, including the interior space, was under constant surveillance.
"Hmph, it seems like Nicholas is still afraid of death. No one can easily slip in here with such tight security."
"Boss, is it really safe to stay here?" There were no outsiders here. Leana immediately showed her respect to Cecilia.
"Of course it's safe. As long as we don't expose our identities, it's absolutely safe," Cecilia said indifferently.
"Now that we've moved in, should we find a chance to murder them? Do you want me to find Hendrix and ask him to arrange for me to work here? I can tamper with the food and poison everyone." Leana had a nasty scowl on her face.
"No, we can't poison him here. If we're going to kill him, we'll have to do it quietly. It's best if they don't find out we did it. It's best not to let them find out that we did it. Don't treat them as useless people." Cecilia immediately interrupted her proposal.
"All right, I'll do as you say. The higher-ups give us three months. We can discuss the idea in detail now that we've here, without exposing the higher- ups." Leana nodded and did not dare to talk nonsense.
"Let's act like this for now. Let me see what kind of man Nicholas is first," Cecilia said faintly.
"Boss, I think he has feelings for you. Men are, without a doubt, bad people. When they see beautiful ladies, they'll be enticed. Even if it's Nicholas, he is not an exception." Leana had a mocking expression on her face.
"Don't be so naive. He doesn't have anything like that for me. He just sympathizes with us. To be honest, this kind of man has the righteousness of the whole world. It's a pity that he wants to compete with the higher ups for power." Cecilia made a sarcastic remark.
"That's right. He will have to perish now. Hmph, boss, your move is really useful." Leana had a look of admiration on her face.
"I was just testing him. I wasn't expecting him to empathize with me to this extent. Well, in this case, let's live at this place in peace. It's good that we are out of those people's supervision. I also want to take a few days off to rest, "Cecilia sat down on the sofa and said.
Leana hurriedly poured her a glass of water.
Cecilia took it from her, drank a glass of water, and said icily, "Be careful. Don't expose yourself. That Hendrix isn't your typical person. He has a pair of keen eyes. Just a second ago, he was staring at me."
"Yes, I will be careful." Leana quickly bowed her head and agreed.
"Let's not bring it up again in the future. Don't talk nonsense even if we're alone in the room. I'm afraid they'll install a recording device." Cecilia gave an order.
Leana was taken aback. "Boss, do you mean there are bugs in this house?" she asked after a quick look around.
"It's not possible now. However, they might install it since we've moved in. I will send you what I have told you by cell phone in the future. I'm not
going to verbally say it.one
the other hand, had to be extra cautious. Once her identity was exposed, she might not have the opportunity to get so close to Nicholas
"Alright, I'll listen to boss's every order." Leana hurriedly lowered her head and replied.
After leaving Cecilia's room, Hendrix went straight to find Nicholas.
At this moment, the shards of glass on Nicholas's back had been removed. He had only been stabbed in the skin and flesh. His bones were unharmed, but he had lost quite an amount of blood.
"In the future, when you are injured, you must not bear it. You must inform me. How would I explain this to Mr. and Mrs. Qin if you do this?" Hendrix Blamed Nicholas anxiously. He had the impression that he didn't think of himself as a friend. Nicholas reached out and lightly patted him on the shoulder, reassuring him, "Well, I'm fine. We were in a hurry to escape from danger, so we had no time to deal with it."

"Why were you injured for no reason? Are you trying to protect the girl named Cecilia?" Hendrix locked his gaze on him.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Is Cecilia her name?" Nicholas lowered his head and murmured, "Her name is pretty distinctive and very close to her temperament,"
"Hey, I'm talking to you. You're
talking about that girl again. Her
name is just like that. I can't tell how
special it is. You, on the other hand, cannot protect others regardless of your own future safety. Your life is the most important thing. In my eyes, you are the only one have." Hendrix was really concerned, to the point of becoming enraged.
Nicholas's face froze, and he gave him an odd look. "Don't say something like that. We're all males, after all. I'll get shivers if I'm the only one in your
gaze."
