When Jennie saw what happened, she froze, eyes wide as she stared at the monitor. Then she watched as Mikaela removed the knife and hid it in some sort of a safe just under the Duke's table. Not long after, she opened the door and started shouting.
"Help! Help! The Grand Duke...." Mikaela's words were hoarse but even Jennie who was watching the video could see the calmness in her eyes. They planned all this!
"It seems that I was right all along," Jennie said. "Disable the electricity in this palace right now. Let's leave."
"Understood." Taehyung answered. Of course, he immediately understood what is about to happen.
"Send that video to Eliza and Levi. Leandro will become the Grand Duke. Tell them to lay low." Jennie said as they started leaving the room. Since everyone was still busy with the Duke, they didn't notice Jennie and her company leaving. Of course, this was also because, for the first time in history, the palace had lost its electricity. All the generators were broken for some reason and it took them hours to fix it. Because of this, they were forced to vacate the palace as its security were already compromised.
However, it was also at this time that Mikaela started telling the guards that it was Lisa who stab the Duke. Of course, when the guards arrived at their room, it was completely empty. No one seemed to know where Jennie and Lisa went.
Meanwhile, Jennie, Lisa, and Taehyung we're already traveling outside of Luxembourg towards a private plane that was already waiting for them. Jennie does not know the details of the news but she had already received a call from Eliza telling her that everyone is already looking for Lisa. Soon, the whole EU will try to look for him. Of course, this was the worst-case scenario.
As expected, they really wanted to use Lisa to control Jennie. A mocking smile soon made its way to her face as she thought of Mr. Neeson's words back then. The other clearly emphasized that Fred had to suffer because of Lilian. The hidden meaning behind his words was simple, Lisa would soon suffer once she refused to do their bidding. And since she did refuse, the Order did try to frame Lisa.
If Jennie's analysis were right, the order must have wanted to keep Lisa some sort of a hostage. Like someone that they could kill anytime once Jennie would not do their bidding. How cruel. She thought.
"The bunker." Jennie didn't continue her words as she looked at the silent Taehyung.
"The location of the bunker will be revealed to the next Grand Duke at the coronation. This will be revealed by the previous Grand Duke." He said. "We are safe." They are currently on their way to Germany where Bei Tian was already waiting for them with a private plane to Sweden. Everything had been prepared in advance. Because of this, Jennie and Lisa were able to stay calm.
"What about me?" Taehyung eyed Jennie. She had already told him the worst-case scenario on this trip and he honestly does not like it.
"Wait for me," Jennie said. "All stocks of the Facci Group is already under your name while Sehun now owns LM Capital." This was something that Lisa and Jennie did after Harringfort revealed himself. This was a precautionary measure that they had to do once they decided to disappear for a while.
Of course, Jennie's priority was her wealth. How could she just leave without any assurance that her company will stay with her once she comes back? "I will come back."
"But..." Taehyung didn't expect this to happen. The original plan was for them to accompany Jennie while she gives birth. He and Sehun were supposed to go with them in Sweden and act as the guards. But with the thing that had been happening right now, that is no longer possible. Pursing his lips, Taehyung lowered his head. "I will protect Facci Group."
