Illiana's POV
"Welcome home!" dad greeted me as soon as I entered our house. He gave me a tight hug afterwards.
He's so delighted when I told him about the news that Sky forced me to go on leave so I'll stay in our house for three months.
"Why do you look so tired? You didn't sleep well last night?" he asked anxiously. He then led me to the couch to sit down.
"I got so busy yesterday. Terrence failed to do the simple task that I gave to him. Good thing that I found the evidence first before my team arrived to raid the area" I explained while massaging my temple. I'm feeling a bit lightheaded.
"Oh, that stupid staff from the filling station." He said uninterested.
"I decided to close that station, LAPD is convinced that we're using that as a front and they will not stop poking until we close it" I explained. I'm surprised when he just nodded in approval.
He's too relaxed right now and it's a bit weird for me because he got angry and he refused my proposal to close it last year.
"Take a rest in your room for now. Later, we will have a meeting with the officers to brief them with the final plan on the arrival of the shipment" he suggested before heading back to his office.
"He's really acting weird right now" I muttered as I watch him disappear from my sight.
"Who's weird?" I glanced on my side and saw Carin approaching.
"Dad" I simply said.
She jerked her head in understanding before sitting on the couch opposite of mine. She then crossed her arms while gazing at me intently.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked frowning.
"Nothing, I'm just thinking if you can manage the meeting later with the officers"
"It's just a meeting about the shipment, what's there to be nervous about?" I said after scoffing at her response.
"It's not a big deal" I added before standing up to head to my room to sleep.
After several hours, I'm awakened by Carin's gentle tap on my shoulder. She informed me that I should get ready because the meeting will start after half an hour.
"How long did I sleep?" I asked while rubbing my eyes.
"Six hours," she said flatly before leaving my room. I still feel so sleepy, and my body is aching. I stretched for a little bit before heading to the bathroom to freshen up.
I'm trying to remember my dream while brushing my teeth but the only thing that's left in my memory is the scene where mom is telling me to leave the Triad. She always says that when I was younger.
I'm all set after twenty-five minutes so I went straight to dad's office. The plan is already finalized and the officers have to be briefed about it even though they're not the ones that are going to handle the shipment.
I rolled my eyes because it's a useless protocol for me. Carin opened the door on my first knock and I'm a bit surprised when I noticed Migo, Arvin and Anton cozily sitting on the couch.
It is the first time that they are joining the meeting with the officers and it makes me a bit suspicious about it. The twins greeted me cheerfully and they seem to be very excited about the meeting. I glanced at the monitor afterwards but the officer's faces are serious.
"Now that Illiana is here, I would like to announce something before we proceed with the briefing" I frowned because I feel like I will not like whatever he's going to say.
