Chapter 34: Information & Security.

Chapter 34 - Information & Security.Leo was cooking the food when his phone rang. He raised his hands and reached out to accept the call but found that his hands were stained. At this moment, Lily hopped inside the kitchen. The young man said, "Lily, dear can you accept this call for me?" Lily nodded and with a smile used her pink finger and tapped on the accept button. She picked up the phone and said, "Hello, this is Lily Cardinal speaking, who is this?" Leo raised his brow and watched Lily interact with the other person, and after a few moments she said, "He is a bit occupied at the moment, can I take a message? Or ask him to call you back as soon as he can?" Leo was surprised by the fact that Lily could communicate this well to a stranger. The little girl thanked the person for calling and disconnected the call. Before she said, "Baba, the person said you can reach them back on the same line, they wanted to talk about something important." Leo nodded and washed his hands in the sink before he wiped them on the apron and picked up the little girl in his arms and asked, "Where did you learn to talk like that? So wise and mature." Lily replied softly, "When Ma used to fall asleep in the past, I would take messages from Doctor Kaya or her office. She had very light sleep so I learned from her about how to take messages." Leo felt his heart clench a little but then he calmed down and said, "Thank you Lily." He pecked her nose, and Lily asked after giggling, "Baba, I am hungry." Leo replied, "The food is ready, your highness. I shall serve it right away." Leo had finished the streaming earlier. He put Lily down, and served her food on a plate with a nice presentation and small garnish. He also served himself a serving and while eating he said, "I have to go pick up Snow. Would you come along?" Lily shook her head and said, "I will stay home with Momo, today it is my turn to brush her." Leo smiled as he said, "Fine, then lock the doors, and all the windows. The tab is on, and I will open the emergency window on it. If you need anything, just tap and Baba will know. We will come back straight home." Lily nodded with a smile and Leo helped her setup everything. He checked all the windows, and locked all the doors. Then he set the tab before kissing Lilly goodbye. As he stepped out of the house, he thought that he should get a guard dog as well, but it wasn't very convincing. Leo took his car and drove out of the house, his speed was quicker than usual, and his thoughts were occupied by Lily's well-being. The young man was a total daughter slave, and so his anxiety went along with his character. He reached Snow's office, picked up his phone and called the lady to inform her that he was waiting for her outside and that he was alone. Snow also understood that he was worried about Lily so she said, "I am ready, just picking up my bag and coming in two minutes." Leo agreed and waited for his wife to come down while he kept tapping his fingers on the steering wheel. As he was waiting his gaze fell on the pair of mother and daughter walking over to a taxi and getting in. They were Symphony Primus and her mother, however, Leo detected a trace of heartache on the face of the young girl. He detected it because he had been in the same state when his parents left him. As he was watching the pair, the window of his car was knocked. Leo opened the door from the internal console, and Snow got in. The young man turned the key and they were off. Leo did not speak much, but Snow said, "I found you something interesting." The young man raised his brows and asked, "What would that be?" Snow smiled and said, "Remember Symphony, I took down notes of everything from her student file. I did not copy it so that the administration would not look into it, but I clicked pictures of the file directly from the screen." Leo was surprised and asked, "When did you become a spy?" Snow smirked and said, "Why not, I had to make sure that Carole or Echo couldn't find me. Did you think I hid all this time because I was lucky?" Leo nodded thoughtfully as she did have a fair argument. He asked, "So what did you find from the file?" Snow replied as she opened her phone's gallery, "The situation of her household is turbulent. She is a single child but her mother is living with her maternal grandparents. They are very old, and so she has to support the elders. She is a single breadwinner, and Symphony is someone who works part time as a babysitter. Sёarch* The ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Her grades are average but last week her grandmother was rushed to the hospital in an emergency. She missed school for three days, and while her mother was trying to gather the money, she probably could do it without reaching out to Carole." Leo nodded and said, "Makes sense, but what do you think about their relationship dynamics?" Snow shook her head and replied, "That scumbag is the same age as us, but he is a playboy through and through. He would not settle for her or someone who brings him no benefit. Also, just so you know, Symphony is ten years old. Her mother is around twenty seven, so from what I speculate, she was a young mother, and Carole was a teen father." Leo turned the car to the left and said, "Carole is twenty six years old, so yes, he must have been fifteen when he took action, and now given that he is the face of the Tyrant group, I doubt if he would ever want his past to come over and harm his image. So, he must have thrown some change to Symphony and her mother." Snow nodded and said, "Symphony's mom turned in an application to rename Symphony from Primus to Rouge." Leo nodded and said, "See, he wants to clean this up nicely. Had it been the past he would have used his goons to make the entire family disappear." Snow nodded as they pulled inside the drive way of the house, and Leo sighed. The lady asked, "What happened?" The young man sighed and said, "I was so worried about living with her alone at home. I was even thinking of getting a babysitter or a nanny to look after her if we are outside, but then I could not convince myself of trusting any human with Lily." Snow smiled and said, "Protective Daddy, get a robot then." Leo was stunned and then he said, "Yeah, makes sense, I will get a guard robot." 'Ping: Host, your desire to protect your daughter from any intruders have been registered. You are rewarded with blueprints of a multifunctional robot that can serve the purpose of a butler and guard at the same time.' Leo took a deep breath as the information poured inside his head and after a moment, the couple entered the house and found Lily sleeping on the couch with Momo snuggling in her arms. Snow leaned over to Leo and said, "The Memories store called, the pictures are developed and ready to be picked up. Shall we go out tonight to collect them?" Leo nodded and then he walked over to pick the little girl and move her to the bed for a better sleeping position.
