Soon, Godric brought Caspian to meet Boris. Thereafter, they reported the situation to him.
Boris was so shocked that he nearly fell off his seat upon hearing the news.
Feeling exasperated, he roared, “You idiot! You're already aware that you've fallen into his trap;
why are you here now?”
Godric and Caspian's expressions changed upon hearing his words.
The former asked, “Mr. Tucker, do you mean to say that Nathan is here for Caspian?”
Caspian gabbled in a panic, “Perhaps I should leave immediately.”
Boris uttered coldly, “It's too late now. If I'm not
mistaken, Nathan has already arrived.”
Right then, the doorman came rushing in, bringing them the bad news. “Sir, General Nathan Cross, Director Reagon from the Secret Service, and Will Long from the Guardian Special Forces of Brimmopolis are seeking an audience with you. They have brought along with them a great number of subordinates.”
Throwing a glare at Godric and Caspian, Boris was quick to sneer, “See, you've led them over to my house.”
Sweat dotted Godric's forehead upon realizing that they had brought about trouble.
Caspian legs gave way as he knew that Nathan was here for him.
Boris ordered the doormen, “Ask the security guards to be on full alert. Then, tell Nathan that
I'm refusing all visitors. Ask them to leave this instant.”
“Yes, Sir!” the doorman replied.
Boris pondered for a moment before he reached out for the telephone to make two calls.
The first call was to request the Cabinet to send a thousand bodyguards from the Security Department to his house.
The second call was to seek the protection of police forces from Justin, the newly appointed head of the Police Department of Brimmopolis.
In the meantime, Nathan, Hailey, and Will were waiting outside the house.
