Chapter 157 Go And Send Them Away
The bodyguard kept looking at the shiny dagger. One small slip, and I’ll…
“Little one, we were only following orders! It’s nothing personal!”
The bodyguard’s body was tense as he did not dare to move an inch. One small slip from the boy’s hand and I’m done for.
Zachary gave them a sharp-edged glare which was very imposing. “I want to hear the truth. Or else…”
“I’ll talk! But can you put the dagger away first?”
The dagger was indiscriminate. The bodyguard sucked in his stomach as he asked him to put it away.
Zachary pulled the dagger away by one tiny bit, but he was still threatening him.
The other bodyguard had a panicked look on his face. He did not dare to say anything and risk offending Zachary while sympathizing with his companion. Luckily, I wasn’t the one who called Mr. Graham in the early morning.
“I only sent Mr. Graham a few photos of an adult bringing one of you outside! All the photos after that were never sent! Mr. Graham asked us to protect you guys from the shadows, that’s all!”
Zachary rolled his eyes as he tried to discern the truth from his words.
“I was the one who went outside with Mr. Hinton to buy our breakfast!” Oliver explained to Zachary, believing that the bodyguard was not lying.
Jasper tightened the restraints around the bodyguard’s wrists. “Lie to us again, and we’ll make things worse for you!”
The bodyguard’s body hunched over as he twitched in pain.
The people who were passing by assumed that they were playing with the children instead of being threatened by them.
“Did you say anything about how many of us there are?”
Zachary gestured at the both of them using his dagger.
They shook their heads. “We didn’t! Don’t worry. If you don’t want Mr. Graham to know, then we’ll keep this a secret! But now that Mr. Graham has seen one of you guys, can we take a few more pictures and report it?”
Zachary stared at them as they begged.
He had an imposing presence.
“Aren’t you guys afraid of being found out by Benjamin?”
The two of them exchanged glances miserably. They would never have accepted this commission if they knew that it would reach this point.
“We are! But we also want the best for you!”
These four children were basically their young masters. Since they saw just how incredible they were, they did not dare to offend them.
Otherwise, they would never live it down.
Zachary assumed that they would never dare to expose them, anyway. He instructed Oliver and Jasper to release them.
The two bodyguards were finally untied. They immediately rubbed their wrists as they were paralyzed with pain.
“You guys better not expose us! Or else, there will be consequences!” Zachary gave them a stern warning.
“Yes, little one!” The two bodyguards replied respectfully as if they were his lackeys.
“Everything will be all right as long as you keep this to yourselves!”
Zachary threw their phones back at them. After that, he told Jasper to grab his bag and walk toward the school’s entrance for the bodyguards to take photos. They sent the photos immediately after.
“You’re absolutely brilliant! If Benjamin decides to come at us, surely you’ll come and support us!”
Zachary lightly chuckled.
“Zachary, can we head inside now?”
Not only did Jesse carry her own bag, but she also held two other bags belonging to Oliver and Zachary.
Jesse held them in her arms tightly.
She hobbled toward Zachary.
The two bodyguards blushed upon seeing this. This one is very cute, the gentlest among them.
Zachary grabbed the two bags and threw Oliver’s bag over to him.
He carried his school bag on his back. As he turned around and was ready to bring them over, he noticed a car pulling over.
Zachary turned and looked at the two bodyguards suspiciously. He asked, “Is this your backup?”
The two bodyguards looked at it and immediately recognized that it was the car that was used to protect Gavin.
“Yes!”
“Then send them away!” Zachary ordered.
“Yes, sir!” the two bodyguards responded. They were about to go when they suddenly stopped. They beamed as they looked at the three children.
“What are you guys standing around for?”
Zachary frowned. Next time, I’ll have to wear a disguise when I head out. Otherwise, I’ll definitely be recognized.
