"Bo Gagne, 43 years old, crime, illicit trafficking of weapons, munitions, and explosives, approximately 170 cm in height, blue eyes, with a tattoo of a succubus in his left upper arm, incubus in the upper left arm, and abstract designs on his chest and back." Lorcan discussed the specifics of their next target in front of his nieces while pointing at the projector with a photo of their target.
But his audience seems to be interested in another topic.
"What do you plan on Lydia?" Brylee who cannot keep herself from asking asks. Lydia told them to refrain from calling her Miss Lydia and call her simply Lydia instead.
It has been a week since they return and since then, Lorcan has been keeping Lydia to his pad. Not that she doesn't have anywhere to go. The boutique was not sold to anyone, Lorcan made sure of it by buying the boutique in case Lydia returns.
Lydia continued to work if necessary at Miliani but Lorcan preferred it if she stayed at his pad. When he remembers those memories of her when she was sick and no one was with her, he made sure that it would never happen again especially now that she is carrying his child.
Lorcan insists that Lydia stays with him at his pad. If she has to go to Miliani, he'll be taking her and picks her up. He would never let her take a taxi or drive a car.
His nieces and even Lydia never thought that Lorcan is such an overprotective lover.
"When do you plan on focusing on the subject, Brylee?" Lorcan replied icily. Ever since they returned, Brylee and Briony, even Brina were bugging him if he is going to propose to Lydia giving him a black mood. Not that he doesn't plan on proposing, he badly wants to, but he just doesn't know how.
If he could just skip that part and marry her then and there, he would. But he is not sure if Lydia would like that. He was pretty sure that all the women wanted a romantic proposal and a grand wedding ceremony.
"No, seriously." But Brylee doesn't seem to be affected by Lorcan's icy remarks and glare. "If you need help, we could help you. Actually, Briony and I already got an idea in mind. While Bianca and Brina came up with a great wedding idea. What do you think?" Brylee said ardently.
Brina and Bianca sat there silently and pretended that they did not hear Brylee. They don't want their Uncle Lorcan to think that they are being nosy as well.
Bell, on the other hand, sat there nonchalantly and is starting to drift off.
For a moment there, Lorcan considered Brylee's offer but now is not the time to talk about it. They have a fugitive to hunt. He narrowed his eyes at Brylee and replied snidely. "How about you tell me what do you plan on your fiance?"
Brylee's face turned deep red.
"Oh my God! How did you know?" She asked her Uncle while covering her face.
"Did you seriously think that he would not know?" Bell said indifferently.
"You already have a fiance? How come we didn't know that you were even dating?!" Briony exclaimed, she had turned her chair to face Brylee who was sitting beside her. Her eyes were wide in surprise.
No one among them had known that Brylee was dating or had a boyfriend and now even have a fiance. Well probably except Bell and now their Uncle. No one can hide a secret from them.
"Of course not! I don't have a fiance!" Brylee retorted back angrily. Who would've thought that she will be the one stewed instead of her Uncle? She just wanted her Uncle to make up his mind about proposing to Lydia since he already insists that they live together.
"What was his name again, Bell?" Lorcan said tapping his pen in his chin.
"Ryuu," Bell replied leaning on her chair. Her feet were on the table and she seemed to be enjoying the scene.
