Chapter 603
"It's nothing!"
Ben smiled awkwardly and continued eating.
"You look good!"
Fane also smiled. "But those words on your chests, 'the Bodyguards of the Taylor Family’, that's too
attention-grabbing. It’s like you're trying to tell everyone that the Taylor family has bodyguards!"
"Does it matter? We're rich now. Isn't it normal to hire bodyguards?"
Fiona grinned. "We'll be going to the countryside for a picnic tomorrow, but since Fane is coming with
us, you all won't have to come along. You’ll only have to follow us if Xena and I go out shopping in the
afternoon! Just two of you will do. It'll b e too striking if too many of you were to come!"
"Yes, ma'am. Then we'll take our leave and patrol the area!"
Elaine smiled and brought her bodyguards out.
"Yay! We're going out tomorrow!"
Kylie was extremely elated, her gaze filled with anticipation.
After dinner, Kylie returned to her room to rest.
Meanwhile, Fane and Selena took a shower and laid on their bed.
"We can’t let Kylie know what happened this morning. She’d be worried!" Selena spoke after thinking
about it.
Fane nodded. "Agreed. I never thought Quil would be so bold. Never mind that he lashed out against
me, he even hired people to kidnap you and Xena—and even Mother!"
A frown formed between Selena's brows." Now, Quil is dead. I did some digging of my own and found
out that there are two Xenos families in Sky Dragon City, and they're both pretty strong. We don't know
which family he belongs to, but it doesn't matter. They'll probably come to you for revenge once they
find out that you killed Quil!"
After she said that, Selena thought about it for a while before she added, "Dear, did you hire so many
bodyguards because you were worried about this?"
Fane looked at her picture-perfect face before him. "I hired them because I'm worried about you and
your mother's safety the next time you go out. Besides, we’re rich now. It's normal to hire bodyguards!"
Here, he paused for a bit before continuing nonchalantly, "As for the Xenos family, don’t worry about
that. It won’t be easy for them to find out the truth since I took no prisoners. Besides, there's always a
solution to a problem. If we really can't avoid conflict, I’m pretty good friends with the Goddess of War—
we can go to her for help!"
Selena's anxiety finally eased after she heard what her husband said. She bobbed her head. "By the
way, Xena's really weird. She's never initiated a family outing before, and even if she did, it'd usually
just be her and Ben. Why would she think of including us in her plans this time?’’
Fane's brows furrowed. "You also thought it was strange, dear? Heh. I thought so, too.
Seems like Xena did a one-eighty flip. Perhaps she’s in a good mood today because I gave her onenovelbin
million bucks?”
Selena's expression darkened when she heard that. "She's definitely seeing a man o n the side while
using my brother as a cover," she said, vexed. "Didn't we say that we'd find that man and break my
brother's heart once we had evidence? Why did you g o and give her money instead?"
After she said that, she rolled her eyes at Fane. "Don't tell me that you gave her money because she’s
good-looking?”
"Her?"
Fane did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Not only is she unattractive compared to you, but she's
also unattractive even compared to Sharon. Why would I give her money because she's good-looking?
It's like this..."
Selena's anger only abated after she listened to Fane's explanation. "So you're trying to get her to
lower her guard and reveal her true colors later on!"
Fane nodded. "But I still don’t get why she suddenly asked us all to go out!”
