The 24th Century Warrior Became a Fake Heiress novel Chapter 386

Chapter 386 The Tactical Escort

Gonna sit in on Professor Grant’s keynote? Like he’d understand a single word?

Though Steven planned to let Noah take the heat for riding coattails, he didn’t want public scrutiny blowing up and compromising the tactical setup for the arrest.

Given Noah’s recent midterm scores, arranging a Most Improved Student commendation provided a convenient excuse.

As for the other participating students, the bureau would prep contingency protocols for them as well.

Reassuring Isabella, he said, “Ethan’s gonna be running overall tactical command on–site.

“Rest assured, he won’t let a hair on your head get harmed.”

As for his younger son, while academics weren’t his strong suit, the boy was lethal in a scrap.

Having brawled with his brother for years, shielding Isabella at the epicenter and stalling for backup wouldn’t be an issue.

Musing over the operational details, Steven resolved to lock the plan down.

They couldn’t ask a young girl to walk into the crosshairs without putting skin in the game themselves.

Steven wasn’t wired that way.

A family of decorated servicemen was duty–bound to put their lives on the line for their country.

He was the one who had invited Isabella to spearhead the operation.

The operational blueprint had cleared under his signature, so guaranteeing Isabella’s safety was his personal duty.

“Oh…”

Isabella rubbed the bridge of her nose.

She had initially intended to tell him backup wasn’t necessary.

But considering her age and the meticulous, unyielding nature of Steven and Ethan, they’d never let her call all the shots.

Standard operational protocols wouldn’t permit it either.

If that was the case, she’d roll with it.

With her psionic abilities, keeping Noah safe in a skirmish was trivial anyway.

Reaching that conclusion, Isabella dropped her objections.

Seeing she wasn’t insisting on abandoning her own safety to prioritize the bust, Steven felt a wave of relief.

The girl was simply too devoted to the greater good, but how could they leave her unprotected?

Even in the thick of bagging Andre, securing her perimeter had to be their primary directive.

With that settled, Steven said, “Then it’s settled.

“I’ll submit the operational memo to high command.

“We’ve gotta coordinate our assets over the next couple of days.
