Her Revenge Returns (Lea and Alfred) novel Chapter 344

Chapter 344 

Spitfire and Quicksilver both felt a surge of emotion, their hearts skipping a beat. 

Brian had always been like a protective leader to them, and now that they knew more about his powerful background, they felt even more at case. 

The idea of an arms dealer might have seemed negative to them at first, but knowing that Brian was here to protect someone so many countries wanted to keep safe, they saw him in a different light. In their eyes, he was a patriotic hero, someone working to maintain world peace. 

Despite this, both of them instinctively moved closer to Lea, wanting her to make the final decision. 

Brian found himself at a loss for words. 

He looked at Lea again, waiting for her decision, feeling an unexpected tension in his chest, worried that she might refuse him. 

To be honest, when they had helped her investigate the gene drugs incident, Brian had learned a lot about her. She was indeed exceptional and strong, especially for someone her age. There was no one else quite like her. 

But she was still young. 

And when she had just entered, Alfred was right behind her. Alfred not only had an overwhelmingly powerful background in Iyerton, but he was also someone who commanded respect and fear abroad. 

A large part of Lea’s influence came from Alfred’s presence. 

Still, Brian wanted her to agree to his proposal. He wanted her to be the leader. 

Perhaps it was her yet–to–be–fully–revealed strength and charisma that drew him to her. 

This was the only explanation Brian could find. 

Lea took a breath, her eyes softening, and she offered a sincere expression. “Brian, you’re the senior here. We’ll need your guidance and protection in the future.” 

Spitfire and Quicksilver were overjoyed. To them, this Union was like a big family, and of course, they didn’t want anyone to be left out. 

Brian felt a thrill in his chest, and realizing his emotions, he paused. 

Someone as powerful as him normally wouldn’t care about others‘ decisions, and his emotions rarely wavered. But in front of Lea, his emotions had shifted so easily, making him feel almost ordinary…. 

‘Lea really does have quite the charm, he thought to himself. 

At the same time, Brian stared at her in slight surprise. He hadn’t expected her to agree so readily. And from the calm and clear look in her eyes, it was obvious that she had already seen right through him. She didn’t seem threatened by him at all, and she didn’t care that he might be a threat to her. 

Lea’s really bold, he thought. 

Brian was just about to ask Lea what her next steps were when she turned to Quicksilver. “You should remain the leader. You’ve done a great job so far, and I know you’ll continue to do well.” 

There were no strict rules in the Union, but these extraordinary individuals had come together, completing many impossible missions with remarkable efficiency.

Chapter 314 

This was the art of Quicksilver’s leadership. 

Lea trusted that Quicksilver wouldn’t manage things any worse an she would. She had far too many important matters to attend to and simply couldn’t spare the time to oversee everything. 

When Brian heard this, he glanced at Quicksilver, reflecting on the past. It was true. Even Brian himself had come to respect and follow Quicksilver’s leadership. 

At the same time, Brian looked at Lea with admiration. 

To lead a team like this was a temptation few could resist, yet she had declined, demonstrating her broad–mindedness, 

Spitfire, naturally, had no objections. She had spent the most time with Brian, and due to her illness, he had taken extra care of her. They were not just colleagues but also friends. 

“If we’re lacking anything, we’ll just make up for it. As for bodyguards…” She looked at Brian. 

“I can provide weapons and personnel,” Brian assured them, patting his chest confidently. 

He had been preparing in Iverton for a long time, and it was time to bring in some top–tier experts. 

“Weapons? The group’s eyes lit up with excitement. 

Given that people had already started coming after them, their line of work was bound to get even more dangerous. They definitely needed weapons. 

Lea smiled and nodded. “I can provide some weapons too. When the opportunity arises, I’ll also offer some smart protective 

gear. 

This kind of equipment wouldn’t fall under regulatory restrictions. 

Brian’s eyes sparkled with interest. “Lea, now that we’re on the same team, do you think your artificial brain technology could be authorized for collaboration with me?” 

In the arms trade, competition was even fiercer than in other industries. When a more advanced product hit the market, everything else quickly became obsolete. 

Brian had been striving for a breakthrough, but what they’d developed so far was already cutting–edge. Their researchers couldn’t keep up with the technological advances in other fields, nor did they have the massive funding needed to support such endeavors.
