In order to express their gratitude, Vaughn and his daughter directly gave Miranda a villa located in the bustling area of Slocmore.
As the richest man in Slocmore, how could he let his daughter’s lifesaver stay in a hotel in Slocmore? What’s the matter with that?
In the middle of the night, when Lachlan returned to the villa, he found both Miranda and Nora still awake.
The two females, one adult and one child, sat in the living room, watching TV and waiting for him.
Maybe it had been a long time since they had seen each other, Nora clung to Miranda in her embrace, and with her Miranda mommy, she looked spirited.
“Why haven’t you slept yet?” Lachlan asked with a bitter smile.
“Daddy, you’re back?” Nora blinked her innocent big eyes and said.
“I want to talk to Miranda mommy.”
Nora clung to Miranda’s neck upon hearing this. “But I amn’t sleepy! I want to play with mommy.”
Lachlan suddenly felt a headache and his face turned serious. “Be good! It’s time for you to sleep.”
The little girl looked at Lachlan, blinked her big eyes a few times, and then nodded as if she understood.
“Oh! I understand!”
Saying that, Nora imitated an adult, yawned, and said, “I’m very sleepy! I will go to sleep now. Goodnight, Miranda mommy.”
With that, the little girl jumped off Miranda’s lap and gave Lachlan a thumbs-up gesture before leaving.
Seeing this scene of a small person acting grown-up, Miranda sat there and gave Lachlan a somewhat annoyed stare.
After Nora ran back to her room, a mischievous smile appeared on Lachlan’s face. Like an antagonist lusting after the female lead, he leaned towards Miranda.
In one go, he scooped up the woman and carried her back to the room.
“Honey, do you miss me?”
Lachlan sat on the bed, holding Miranda in his arms, and asked with slightly rapid breaths.
“Mmm-hmm!”
Miranda seemed to make a sound from her nose.
“Honey, I might not stay outside for too long. I have to return to the Broken Pulse Sect to avoid being found by the ancient Willis family.”
“So, let’s make the most of our time!”
“Let’s work hard to make you pregnant!”
Lachlan had a wicked smile on his face.
Sniffing the scent emanating from Miranda’s body, he felt completely defenseless.
“Phew!”
Miranda lightly spat at Lachlan, her voice filled with indescribable charm and allure.
In the next moment, the temperature in the room instantly rose.
The two of them wholeheartedly released their love and longing for each other.
They didn’t know how long it had passed until they finally stopped.
Miranda now rested her head on Lachlan’s arm, her beautiful eyes filled with affection.
“Baby…”
She murmured softly, nuzzling her head against Lachlan’s chest, cherishing every moment spent with him.
She didn’t ask Lachlan when she could stay by his side forever like other women would.
Miranda knew that Lachlan carried the curse of Nora and the blood feud of his parents.
All of this had to be resolved after he could step on the ancient Willis family.
“By the way, Honey, if you’re willing, you can consider joining the Medical Business Alliance of Corlinet Delta now. This business organization has quite a few resources and channels. It would be beneficial for the development of Lowe Group without those annoying restrictions!”
Lachlan casually mentioned.
“Did you settle it with its president, Gilberto?” Miranda asked.
“Yes,” Lachlan nodded.
Gilberto, who was in charge of the Medical Business Alliance of Corlinet Delta, would officially still serve the hidden Willis family, but behind the scenes, he would help Miranda and provide Lachlan with information about the hidden Willis family.
Before this, the Medical Business Alliance of Corlinet Delta coerced Lowe’s Pharmaceutical to join, imposing unequal conditions such as handing over prescriptions and the like.
Now, with Gilberto bowing down to Lachlan, those conditions naturally no longer exist.
By joining the alliance, Lowe Group will only enjoy favorable conditions and resources.
Next, the two of them discussed the situation in Edoland and talked about the circumstances of Miranda’s father and younger brother.
Finally, as Lachlan softly whispered, Miranda gradually fell asleep, sleeping deeply and sweetly.
…
The next morning!
Miranda had nearly finished her cooperation with Hazel. Today, she planned to take Nora to enjoy themselves in Slocmore.
As for Lachlan, he arrived in front of a building. On the building, Sun Moon Security were embedded, displaying their impressive strength.
In the valuable land of Slocmore, the entire building belonged to this security company, which indicated its extraordinary status.
“Sun Moon Security? What a common name…”
“They must be afraid others won’t know it was founded by the Sun Moon Sect?”
Lachlan secretly mocked in his mind, then stepped towards the building.
On both sides of the entrance, two security guards stood straight. And a team of security personnel patrolled the surroundings in a professional manner.
They all looked like retired soldiers.
However, Lachlan knew that these people were not the ones truly carrying out missions. They were merely decorations, even if they did take on some ordinary jobs.
As a company established by a hidden sect in the outside world, their core personnel certainly wouldn’t be these ordinary people without even Dark Force strength.
“What’s your business here?” The security guard at the entrance stopped Lachlan and asked.
“Isn’t this a security company? I’m here to hire some people.”
Lachlan smiled.
The security guard took a few glances at Lachlan and then took out a walkie-talkie.
A few minutes later…
Lachlan met the business manager of Sun Moon Security in their business department.
Looking at the “manager” in front of him, who had mid-Core Formation strength, Lachlan smiled with interest. “This is more like it.”
“What?” The manager was momentarily puzzled and asked in confusion.
“Never mind…” Lachlan waved his hand.
The manager scrutinized Lachlan for a moment with suspicion, then asked politely, “Sir, what can we assist you with, please?”
“I want to hire a few people, the stronger, the better.”
Lachlan cut to the chase.
“Hire people? Do you need bodyguards, sir?” The business manager’s eyes lit up, feeling that business had arrived today.
He had some insight.
Although the young man in front of him wasn’t dressed too extravagantly, his confident composure was not something an ordinary person possessed.
Moreover, he couldn’t quite see through this young man, which made him suspect that the young man himself was a cultivator.
And cultivators usually weren’t lacking money…
So, he asked with a very good attitude, “Certainly, is it bodyguards you need, sir?”
“It’s sort of that, but not entirely. To be precise, I need assistants who not only protect my safety but also obey my commands. If someone tries to steal from me or attack me, they should help me. And if I want to fight or steal from others, they should also help me.”
Lachlan said in a deep voice.
“Oh? No problem! I understand! What kind of strength are you looking for in the assistants? If I’m not mistaken, sir, you should also be a cultivator, right? Whatever strength you need, we, Sun Moon Security, can provide. Energy Refinement? Uppecia? Even high-level Core Formation experts, we can provide.”
The business manager smiled knowingly after hearing Lachlan’s words.
Then, with a confident and proud tone, he asked Lachlan, “Is that all?”
Lachlan shook his head, unimpressed. “Just that? No, it’s not enough!”
“Oh? Not enough? Is there something higher?”
Lachlan shook his head and said without hesitation.
