Leo and the family finished the movie and they got back home. The young man didn't change his clothes, but first he headed to the study. Everyone noticed this and Snow said, "Symphony, can you help Lily change her clothes first, before you go?" Symphony nodded with a smile, and Snow dashed to the second floor, and entered the study before closing the door, and she saw Leo looking at the computer screen calmly before he asked, "You sure this happened?" Markus's voice sounded from the screen, "Yes, Sir. Spring basically has no courage or intellect left to lie to me." Leo thought again and said, "Patch her through, I want to hear what exactly happened." Markus did as he was told and Snow asked, "What happened?" Leo replied, "That bastard Carole found out about us." Snow shivered slightly, not in fear, but in rage. Her life had just begun to settle down, that bastard had returned. She hated Carole Primal more than anything or anyone in her life. Spring was connected online with them, and looking at Leo she bowed and said, "Greetings Lord." Leo frowned and asked, "Do you know who informed Carole?" Spring replied, "Someone named Rao." Leo asked, "What did he say?" Spring replied, "I have no idea as to what the other guy said, but Carole wanted to make quick work of you and your family. He is trying to hire a mercenary group to attack you." Leo clicked his tongue and said, "Tell him that you know how strong we are, and tell him that we have a license to carry firearms. Also, reveal that I am not the same and the time is not yet right to attack." Spring replied, "I will do my best, Sir." Leo nodded and then he looked at Markus as he said, "Issue a notice in the mercenary group about my identity and role in Pinnacle Securities, if anyone dares to take a contract against me, they will die. I am sure you know how to keep a gag on it." Markus nodded and said, "It will be done, Sir." The call was disconnected and Leo leaned back in his chair. Snow stood silently beside him and after a few minutes she asked, "What do you want to do now? Stopping him from taking action might work once, but it would not work all the time." Leo nodded and replied, "I know what I want to do." He sat up straight in his chair and began typing on his computer. Snow asked, "What are you doing?" Leo replied, "That bastard is driving the latest model of the Wagoner Group, the Ring R8, he loves how that car can drive itself even at a high speed. Although that tech is experimental, this nincompoop still went ahead to pay several million. So, what I am going to do is hack into his car's autopilot and then give him the scare of his life." Snow was surprised, she saw Leo use the codes from his board of director identity. This code allowed him to see the core program without making any change, but that was not difficult, because he didn't want to change anything, he wanted to monitor the data, and how the firewalls worked. Leo knew that the traces could be detected, so he decided to use the darknet from another system, located the company server, and then bypassed the firewalls, because of the loops he recognized inside it. … Carole was speeding on an expressway, and he was leaning back in his seat with his hands crossed on his chest as he gazed at the passing stars visible from the sunroof. What he didn't realise was that slowly, the autopilot had shifted the car into the fast lane, and he was now moving at the speed of one hundred and twenty kilometers per hour. Suddenly, a beep went off inside the cabin, and Carole quickly sat up, the next moment, he noticed that the car was dangerously close to the pavement. He tried to reach for the steering wheel but the right front tire had already made contact, and the shift in momentum caused Carole to react instinctively and while he wanted to steer left, he ended up steering right. The car went over the pavement and it flew in the void, before flipping to its sides and making contact with the ground. Thankfully this car was using the latest safety foam device, and the cabin was filled with shock absorbent foam directly. The vehicle flipped on itself over three times, before it came to a stop. … Leo smiled as he leaned back in the car. He said, "Even if the foam system saves his life, he would face some broken bones." Snow replied, "You are a scary individual, you know?" seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Leo pulled her to sit down in his arms, as he began to think who tattled on them. Suddenly, a face flashed in his mind, and he said, "I knew it." Snow looked at him and asked, "Who is it?" She knew that he was thinking about the main informant. Leo replied, "Aron Rao. The second son of the Rao family, the media mogul." Snow frowned her brow and asked, "How can we deal with that guy? His father is dead, and his elder brother, that man has been sitting inside the house for all these years." Snow had expanded her network over the past few weeks and even before that she would look up for the people who had been her enemies on social media. She knew the basic outline of the Rao Family. Leo said, "The reason Elvin Rao had been staying inside the house is to protect himself." Snow looked at him in surprise and the young man continued, "Elvin was the brightest of the younger generation in school. Even in college he was the topper, but he was very low-key. Most people don't know that he deliberately regulated his marks in many subjects. He did all this because Aron had tried to kill him once. Elvin loved to drive his car around the hill on the outskirts, that's where his mother used to hold a cafe. One day, Elvin drove the car up the hill but his mother had to go to handle some supplier issues. Her car had a flat tire, and so she took Elvin's vehicle. The car came downhill fine, but around one curve, Mrs Rao couldn't brake, and the car fell down. Later on it was found that the brakes had been tweaked and the person responsible for this was Aron, because as Mrs Rao counted her last in the hospital, he used that scene to warn Elvin about how he should stay clear. Since that day, Elvin stayed in Rao Mansion and gave up on everything apart from his shares and the mansion. Aron never lived there, after all, in his will Mr Rao made it clear that the Rao mansion was named to Elvin, and Aron, the bastard child will get the chain of Theaters. Elvin hired a golden manager for the Rising Star Entertainment company to stay in the shadows." Snow asked, "How do you know all this?" Leo smiled and replied, "Because the Rao family scattered before the Cardinal family and Elvin was my good friend, he even knows about things that Jimmy had no idea of." Snow hummed and asked, "Then can we handle Aron?" Leo nodded and replied, "I will handle Aron, and for that I will get Elvin to come out, after all, if Carole found out that it was me who did Aron in, it would cause him to try and attack once more." Snow nodded, and asked, "When will you meet Elvin?" Leo smiled and replied calmly, "Tonight is as good as any other occasion. You go and sleep, I will handle this." Snow nodded, and then the two of them came downstairs. Lily was using crayons to color a drawing she made, and Anastasia was watching her, before the little girl turned her head to look at the young couple and asked, "So, have you finished dealing with your adult issues?" Leo was surprised and asked, "What happened?" Lily narrowed her eyes and asked, "I need to go and visit Sister Symphony's grandparents tomorrow. They are old and it is their anniversary." Leo nodded and said, "We will take you, but you have to be a good girl. Now, it is bedtime, go, Ma will put you to sleep. Baba has work to do." Leo didn't change his clothes, he just left as it was, and then took only Jock with him. The second team was instructed to make sure they are not being followed. Sure enough, five minutes later, they found that the second team had taken down one guy who was clicking pictures of the house and the security detail. Several minutes later, Leo stood in front of an arched gate, where a small stone name plate was erected. It said, "Rao Villa." Leo looked around and found no guards, with a sigh he took two steps forward and jumped over the eight feet tall fence and made his way inside to greet his old friend. ...
